The Destructive Cult of Racial ‘Liberation’
For many years, one of my journalistic specialties was covering the political fringe. This is important work — and frankly, a lot more fun than covering “mainstream” politics — because most of the real action in politics happens on the fringe. All movements that have significant impact on society begin on the fringe, where seemingly […]
Is the Irony Obvious Enough?
To extend this quote from Henry Rogers, a/k/a Ibram X. Kendi: “The conjoined twins are two sides of the same destructive body. The idea that capitalism is merely free markets, competition, free trade, supplying and demanding, and private ownership of the means of production operating for a profit is a whimsical and ahistorical as the […]
‘The Dismantling of Race-Conscious Admissions Would Deal Another Blow to Equity in Science’
Professor Reynolds linked this with the flippant dismissal, “White guy says there are too many Asians.” And perhaps that’s sufficient rebuttal, considering the actual stakes involved in the current situation (see, “Supreme Court can end racial preferences with Harvard and UNC admissions cases,” Mike Gonzalez, Fox News, Jan. 31). It is in fact the case […]
Have You Heard of ‘The CROWN Act’?
Friday, I wrote about the “Is Professionalism a Racist Construct?” seminar that Washington University in St. Louis did last week, but I hadn’t watched the full hour-long video and — oh, boy! — is it chock full of craziness. After a half-hour, they begin talking about The CROWN Act, and go on about it for […]
What Does ‘White Supremacy’ Mean?
This is a question I have been thinking about for a while, but never found the right entry point for exploring it until today, when Instapundit linked to this article at Campus Reform: The Brown School at Washington University in St. Louis hosted an event that made headlines before it even began, called “Is Professionalism […]
‘Complicit in Oppression’
Sarah Hoyt called attention to this take on the Whoopi Goldberg incident: It wasn’t enough to talk about black people’s oppression. White people – all of them, every single one – had to be demonized. And it couldn’t matter that some individual white people had even joined in the historic struggle against discrimination of blacks. They were […]
I (Still) Hate Illinois Nazis
In case you missed it, Whoopi Goldberg (née Caryn Elaine Johnson) surprised everyone who thought she’d already reached the nadir of ignorance, boldly going where no one had gone before, and doing it on live TV: Sparks fly as The View panel confronts Whoopi after she says “the Holocaust isn’t about race. No. It’s not […]
Yes, Black Lives Matters Was a Scam
Intelligent people knew from the start that Black Lives Matter was simply a Democratic Party propaganda operation. “Systemic racism” did not suddenly become a problem in the spring of 2020, and obviously it was not a coincidence that the “mostly peaceful” protests erupted in an election year. Further proof of the BLM movement’s essential bogusness […]
