NASHVILLE, Sept. 14 (UPI) -- Attendance at a white power conference in Tennessee this weekend is limited to 150 people, organizers say.

The two-day gathering organized by Stormfront, a white supremacist website, features workshops on the dangers of immigration and a nature walk led by David Duke, the former Ku Klux Klan leader, The (Nashville) Tennessean reports. There will be at least one international speaker, Paul Fromm, a Canadian who broadcasts a radio show on Stormfront.

While Stormfront says no more than 150 people can attend, the group has not said how many have agreed to pay the $75 admission price. Mark Pitcavage, who monitors hate groups for the Anti-Defamation League, told the Tennessean he expects most at the conference to be from Tennessee and neighboring states.
