Katherine Mayo

    Katherine Mayo was an American researcher and historian, noted for her advocacy of white nationalism and strong anti-immigrant rhetoric. Her work focused on opposition to non-white and non-Christian immigration to the United States, particularly against recently emancipated African laborers. Mayo gained notoriety for denouncing the Philippine Declaration of Independence on racialist and religious grounds. Her best-known publication, Mother India (1927), courted controversy for its racist and Indophobic views, though it was welcomed in British government circles and by American Anglophile racialists.
