Steven Ernest Sailer (born December 20, 1958) is an American far-right writer and blogger.[1][2][3] He is currently a columnist for Taki's Magazine and VDARE, a website associated with white supremacy.[4][5][6][7]

Earlier writing by Sailer appeared in some mainstream outlets, and his writings have been described as prefiguring Trumpism.[2] Sailer popularized the term "human biodiversity" for a right-wing audience in the 1990s as a euphemism for scientific racism.[2][8]
