What ‘Diversity’ Really Means

No matter how much the elite pretend otherwise: A recruiter for the United Kingdom’s Royal Air Force referred to white men looking to join the air force as “useless white male pilots,” according to emails obtained by several British media outlets. The comments were reportedly made by Squadron Leader Andrew Harwin in an email discussing […]

How White Is @TizzyEnt?

Film editor and social-media SJW Michael McWhorter (@TizzyEnt on Twitter) “can safely be described as white as a debutante’s taint,” in the immortal words of Jeff Goldstein, and the excellence of that phrasing was sufficient to call my attention to a story I’ve been trying to ignore for more than a week, the “CitiBike Karen” […]

NAACP: ‘Stay Out of Florida, Negroes’

That’s the real message, if you don’t mind me paraphrasing: Today, the NAACP Board of Directors issued a formal travel advisory for the state of Florida. The travel advisory comes in direct response to Governor Ron DeSantis’ aggressive attempts to erase Black history and to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in Florida schools. The […]

I, For One, Welcome Our New Anti-White Racist Asian Academic Overlords

Professor Reynolds called attention to this story, which puts me in something of a dilemma: Do I really want to be against racism? Having long ago earned my dot on the SPLC “hate map,” there’s a certain reputational risk if I were to complain too loudly about racism, because I’ve carefully staked out a position […]

Fake Indian Syndrome

“Cultural appropriation” is now so frowned upon that the friendly face of the Land O’ Lakes maiden has been banished as racist, although it is far from clear how anyone was harmed by butter package labels. We’re not supposed to question the logic of these Crusades of the Anointed, but rather just accept the claims […]

Professor Demonizes ‘Wealthy White Men’ for ‘Violence, Deceit, Irresponsibility’

As recently as 2018, Kirsten Bradbury was paid $105,697 a year as an associate professor of psychology at the University of Texas. Bradbury, who also has a private practice in Austin as a clinical psychologist, apparently now only teaches part-time at the university, so that her pay in 2022 was only around $60,000, but still […]

In Defense of Scott Adams

As everybody knows now, “Dilbert” cartoonist Scott Adams has been #canceled because of what is being called a “racist rant” he posted on his daily video stream last week. An acquaintance who knows Adams passed along the word that Adams is wealthy enough that this is basically his way of taking early retirement. What’s most […]

‘Blood Will Tell,’ as Folks Say Down Home

In addition to being handsome, my son Jefferson is also very smart. Last week I texted him, “What did you score on the LSAT?” He answered 170 which, really, is Ivy League caliber, but instead he accepted a generous scholarship offer from a law school in the Midwest and is now in his second semester.
