Richard Bertrand Spencer (born May 11, 1978) is an American writer, publisher, activist and self-described "identitarian" known for promoting white identitarianism.

Spencer is known for discussing issues such as human biodiversity, European self interest, differences between men and women, and nationalism.

Early life and career

Richard Spencer was born in Boston, Massachusetts, and grew up in Dallas, Texas, where he graduated from St. Mark's School of Texas. In 2001, he received a B.A. from the University of Virginia and, in 2003, a M.A. from the University of Chicago. Between 2005 and 2007, he was a doctoral student in history at Duke University. Spencer has been an assistant editor at The American Conservative magazine and Editor of Taki's Magazine. In 2010, he founded Alternative Right, a webzine that he edited until 2012. Spencer has been published at Right Now!, The American Conservative, American Renaissance, VDARE.com, The Occidental Observer, and other publications.

In 2012, he founded Radix Journal as biannual publication of Washington Summit Publishers. Contributors included Kevin B. MacDonald, Alex Kurtagic, Samuel T. Francis, Andy Nowicki, Derek Turner, and others. He also hosts a weekly podcast, Vanguard Radio (a successor to AltRight Radio).

Spencer has been a guest speaker at Hans-Hermann Hoppe's Property and Freedom Society, The Traditional Britain Group, American Renaissance, and the HL Mencken Club.

Views

Greg Johnson, then-editor of The Occidental Quarterly, stressed how Spencer's concept of the "Alternative Right" was to collect a variety of perspectives that are outside the purview of the American Conservative movement:

will attract the brightest 'young' conservatives and libertarians and expose them to far broader intellectual horizons, including race realism, White Nationalism, the European New Right, the Conservative Revolution, Traditionalism, neo-paganism, agrarianism, Third Positionism, anti-feminism, and right-wing anti-capitalists, ecologists, bioregionalists, and small-is-beautiful types.
