Southern Independence Party
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Southern Independence Party is a minor American political party. It broke away from the Southern Party due to leadership disputes. Its members claimed that the leadership of the Southern Party was steering the party in a direction which was detrimental to the cause. Unlike its forebear, this group does not advocate a second secession of the Southern United States from the Union. The party calls for the restoration of the Confederate States of America as a sovereign and independent nation. It disclaims any racist motives in this advocacy, however.
[edit] Anti-racist statement
The Southern Independence Party has placed a statement on their website, in which it rejects "all racist groups" including "the Ku Klux Klan, and the NAACP", and states that there is no place in the "Southern Nation" for those who "espouse hatred of others." [1]
