No, all of them are either openly racist, openly support racist people and policies like Pool does, or have no position whatsoever.
So just to be clear, there are no people who are actually trying to stop racism who have been invited to this conference. The “diversity” extends only to views that are conservative.
I doubt the far left will listen to these people. The politics of race is a subject the left wishes to dominate for their own purposes and so they will do everything they can to discredit anyone outside of their movement who would challenge racism.
Why should we listen to people who are trying to take away the rights of non-whites?
How do we benefit?

So we agree that antifa has never killed anyone, so it is illogical to assume they will do so now.
Now, did anyone actually threaten anyone? The supposed threat to life that you keep citing is merely a line in an online conversation and does not seem to be directed at anyone.
So as far as I can see, there was no threat to kill anyone.
Should we be worried about a threat that was never threatened and is not supported by previous behaviour?
