FYI from BATR

Immigration is obviously a topic central to American national identity. Of course, there is the old cliché that we are all either immigrants or descended from immigrants. That is what we all have in common, but that is where the commonality ends.

There are extraordinary differences of opinion on the issue of immigration. We have three speakers today; I am going to introduce each one right before they speak. Our first speaker is Peter Brimelow, who has earned his reputation as a as a financial journalist and is also now connected with the webzine VDARE.COM: he has graciously consented to address us today. As probably all of you know, the contemporary debate on immigration was really sparked by his book Alien Nation. We are very fortunate to have him as our first speaker. Will you please join me in welcoming Peter Brimelow.
