Youth For Western Civilization Co-Founder And James O’Keefe
Marcus Epstein, who helped found the anti-immigrant organization Youth For Western Civilization [Note YWC claims he is not a “co-founder”] was apparently an old friend of James O’Keefe, the infamous “ACORN Pimp”. O’Keefe recently worked for the Leadership Institute, which provided assistance to start Youth for Western Civilization and provided a training program for them in their fight against immigrants less than two months ago.
In 2007 both Epstein and O’Keefe attended a controversial conference on race. The conference featured a leading white nationalist, Jared Taylor, and was organized by Epstein, who would go on to be arrested for a racial attack on an African American woman.
O’Keefe’s involvement with racist groups and with the notorious Epstein, have led to embarassment for many media conservatives who embraced O’Keefe without disclosing his racist ties.
