Remembering Francis Parker Yockey:
September 18, 1917–June 16, 1960
Greg Johnson
Francis Parker Yockey was born 107 years ago today, September 18, in Chicago. He died in San Francisco on June 16, 1960, an apparent suicide. Yockey is one of America’s greatest anti-liberal thinkers and an abiding influence on the North American New Right. In honor of his birthday, I wish to draw the reader’s attention to the following works on this site.

I think Yockey was ahead of his time. Maybe ahead of the current time still. I wish there was a conference discussing Yockey’s ideas.
Is there speculation on why he may have taken his own life?
His bail was set ridiculously high for passport fraud by a rabbi judge, joseph karesh, who’d bring a talmudic vengeance to court and Yockey feared he’d be forcibly institutionalized without a fair trial as the enemy did to Frederick Seelig and Ezra Pound, reducing him to a vegetative state via electrodes or a lobotomy to extract his contacts’ names by torture. After ending his life via a kill-pill, the suicide note to his enemies was found in his cell: “I shall write no messages which I know will never be delivered; only this, which will be. You will never discover who helped me for he is to be found in your own multitudinous ranks, at least outwardly.”
I suppose we will often know actual goodness and brilliance by how it is persecuted by evil. Heartbreaking. Nowhere in the Bible does it say suicide will result in Hell. I pray Mr. Yockey is in Heaven, restored, filled with joy, and at peace.
