About
The National Registry for White Males is a satirical database project launched by Brooklyn resident Candace Thompson as a protest against the United States President-elect Donald Trump's proposed plan to create a federal tracking system for Muslims living in the country.
Origin
In November 2015, Donald Trump stated he "would certainly implement" a database for tracking Muslims in the United States in an interview with NBC News (shown below).
On November 15th, 2016, a week after Donald Trump won the 2016 presidential election, Kris Kobach, the Secretary of State of Kansas who has been credited with designing anti-immigration laws in Arizona, said in an interview with Reuters that Trump's immigration policy advisers have discussed drafting his controversial proposal of a registry for immigrants from Muslim countries. The next day, Carl Higbie, a former spokesman for a major Trump-supporting super PAC, further fueled the rumor of a religion-specific registry in the making by citing the mass internment of Japanese Americans during World War II as a legal "precedent" for the proposal during his appearance on Fox News.
The Project
That same day, Candace Thompson posted an announcement on Facebook[1] for her newly created, satirical registry for white men in the United States,[3] stating βForgot the nation of Islam, our most immediate threat to domestic security is and always has been white, straight men.β

"As you may or may not know, in America 57% of reported rapes and 64% of mass shootings were committed by white men,β she wrote. βForty-five percent of all serial killers are white men. 1 in 3 women will experience some form of domestic violence during their lifetime, and 97% of those domestic violence perpetrators were men."
Spread
That day, the AllWhiteMen[4] Tumblr blog and @allwhitemen[5] Twitter feed were launched to promote the art project. On November 18th, Thompson's registry was posted in a thread on 4chan's /pol/ (politically incorrect) board, where users discussed filling out the form with various fake names (shown below).[2]
