The exclusive Dallas boys prep school that the white nationalist leader Richard B Spencer attended is denouncing his activities and ideas.
David Dini, the headmaster of St Marks School of Texas, issued a statement of criticism after a 19 November rally in Washington at which Spencer, a member of St Marks class of 1997, shouted Hail Trump! Hail our people! Hail victory! as supporters raised their arms in Nazi salutes.
Without referring to Spencer by name, Dini said his activities had been deeply troubling and terribly upsetting to our whole school community.
We reject racism and bigotry in all its forms and expressions, he added.
In his statement, posted on the schools Facebook page, Dini hailed other St Marks alumni for expressing their outrage and disgust toward the National Policy Institute, which Spencer leads, and the ideas the group promotes.
