Socialists, Communists and anarchists aren't the only ones who are closely following the Wake County school diversity fight.

The white nationalists have also been monitoring the student assignment fight. American Renaissance, called a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center, regularly carries excerpts of news stories about the ongoing situation in Wake.

In the latest example, American Renaissance carried the N&O story about AdvancED's accreditation review of the Wake school system. Most of the reader comments about the review and African Americans were harsh, to put it mildly.

Words like "evil" and "fluke election" are being bandied about in a trio of items over the past few days by left-wing groups to describe the Wake County school board and the elimination of the diversity policy.

In a post today, the liberal N.C. Social Justice Project writes that "one of the few bright spots to emerge over the Wake County School Board disaster has been the cooperation of so many diverse and previously unrelated groups and individuals."

The group also calls Tuesday's letter by the Rev. William Barber, president of the state NAACP, and the Rev. Nancy Petty, senior pastor of Pullen Memorial Baptist Church, "a wonderful summary of what everyone is so deeply concerned about and why, deep down, it is so evil."
