According to Gallup, race relations are far lower today than they were in the early 2000s. In fact, race relations hit an all-time low in 2015. How do we understand what is happening to race relations in America? How do we navigate these complexities and remain united as Americans? How does the public square engage with the messages from groups like Black Lives Matter and the Alt-Right?
Dr. Carol Swain, author of the books: The New White Nationalism in America, Race Versus Class, and Black Faces, Black Interests, will help explore these important issues.
A black conservative, Dr. Swain has been unfairly smeared by the liberal Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) as an “apologist for white supremacists.”
From high school dropout and teenage mother to highly accomplished university professor and public intellectual, Dr. Carol M. Swain is passionate about empowering others to confidently raise their voices in the public square. Dr. Swain’s education and experiences make her a credible and powerful force for change in today’s social and political climate where conservatives are intimidated to champion an often-unpopular message.

Wonderful speaker!
she was so right!
Your talk was very moving. Such honesty is missing in America today. It breaks my heart. We see things the same. We have similar history and background. My son calls me a bigot and a racist and that just isn’t the case. Thank you for following the path that God has placed you on. It’s so refreshing to know that I’m not alone. Thank you
We need to begin focusing on nationalism, rather than racial identity... not saying we should NOT acknowledge the different racial identities which make us all unique, but Americans should focus on celebrating what all connects us just as well.
Brilliant Woman!
Racism is rooted in personal and cultural insecurities. Knowing and understanding who we are in Christ comes against these inborn and culturally inbred insecurities. Love, of who God has made us to be, transmitted to our fellowmen is the answer and that begins with love of God. Love of fellowman is one of the tests of the authenticity of our Christian faith. The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom.
She should have debated Hillary Clinton
@killuminati Hillary wouldn’t have stood a chance 😂

University of Northern Carolina?
Donald Trump should pick this lady for his VP running mate.
NATIOLISM IS GOOD, AMERICA 1ST, AS SHOULD BE, ALSO ALL OTHER NATIONS HAVE TO DO THE SAME, PUT THEIR CITIZENS FIRST. DON'T GIVE AID TO NATIONS, HELP THESE COUNTRIES AND COMPANIES TO BRING JOBS TO GIVE BUSINESSES THE MONEY IF THEY BRING JOBS TO THESE 3rd WORLD NATIONS AND STOP THE LARGE FAMILIES
💩 Awhhhhhh
I don’t have a problem with some of the things she says like on illegal and legal immigration. However, Black on white hatred started because of white nationalism it’s created Black people to hate themselves.
Black people had to acquire their history which was kept from them and white nationalism continued forming policies that went against Black people Surviving in this country.
Desegregation was force on Black people but, we felt we were better off segregated for economic reasons. As a result of desegregation Black people became more economically poor and disadvantaged. White nationalist became more segregated doing desegregation and racist Banking laws and redlining became a norm.
Desegregation helps white people not Black people, white people is able to use de facto racism called redlining and its Banking industry to keep Black people out their communities.
Black people lost political and economic power when they desegregated them. Now, all you have is a bunch of illegal and legal immigrants and guns and drugs in Black communities that was put their by liberal politicians.
