The ongoing crisis taking place in the small Ohio city of Springfield has quickly turned into one of the leading stories in the American news cycle. In a predictable turn of events, flooding a community with thousands of Haitians has resulted in chaos, destruction and even death. (more…)

Race First: The Ideological and Organizational Struggles of Marcus Garvey and the United Negro Improvement Association
Westport: Greenwood Press, 1976

The late nineteenth century saw a collapse of black political power and sovereignty, both in America and in Africa. Contrary to the wishes of far-sighted men such as Thomas Jefferson, James Monroe, and Abraham Lincoln, freedmen were not given their own territory outside the boundaries of the United States after their emancipation.

More than a year has gone by since I began submitting articles for Counter-Currents and I have thus far intentionally avoided revealing too many personal details in my writing. There are two reasons for this. (more…)

Miriam Adelson: Queen of American Zionism

On the question of whether much of America’s Jewish population has a “dual loyalty” to both Israel and the United States, paleoconservative writer Joe Sobran once remarked that “Dual loyalty would be an improvement!” (1)

Since his departure from Fox News in April of 2023, political commentator Tucker Carlson has hosted his own independent podcast, routinely drawing hundreds of thousands of views on YouTube. This June, he conducted an interview with Thomas Massie, a Republican congressman who represents Northern Kentucky. Massie, who is known for taking anti-interventionist foreign policy positions, is a conspicuous outlier within his party and all of Congress because of his history of voting against foreign aid to Israel.

The Haitian National Centre for Geospatial Information (CNIGS) is the closest thing Haiti has to a space program. Possessing no spacecraft launch facilities, satellites, or even telescopes, its sole purpose seems to be to collect satellite data that is donated to it by the French Space Agency which is then used to help Haitians to cope with the many disasters which strike their country. Compare this to NASA’s achievements and you’ll see why Haitians may be less capable than Ohioans at space exploration. (Image source: Recovery Observatory Haiti)

55 years ago, almost to the day, Neil Armstrong became the first human to set foot on the surface of the Moon. This event is not discussed nearly enough. As I see it, the Moon landing is one of the greatest achievements in the 300,000-year history of the human species. No earthly life form had ever traveled to another celestial body until three brave, white explorers completed their daring journey on July 20, 1969. That iconic date should be counted among the most glorious in the history of White America.

Not one of the great powers of past ages can claim to have sent the first man to the Moon. For myself and my fellow white Americans, that is an achievement that can be claimed by us and us alone. The moment Armstrong stepped onto the Moon’s surface, a new, uniquely American chapter was contributed to the epic, ongoing tale of the white race and its exploits. (more…)

You Have the Right to Remain Innocent: What Police Officers Tell Their Children about the Fifth Amendment
New York: Little A, 2016.

Most Americans know very little about police interrogations. If a police officer wants to ask you some questions, and you know that you have not committed any crime, then you should have no problem talking to the police, right? (more…)

Emancipation Hell: The Tragedy Wrought by Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation
Columbia, S. C.: Shotwell Publishing, 2015

The emancipation of African slaves following the War Between the States is almost universally perceived as a great moral triumph, hence the enshrinement of Juneteenth as America’s newest federal holiday. While one will occasionally hear objections voiced to the way that then-President Abraham Lincoln conducted the war itself, the presumed righteousness of emancipation is rarely subjected to serious scrutiny.

Women’s basketball has surged in popularity among American sports fans over the past few years, thanks largely to the shooting skills of Caitlin Clark. Clark, a 22-year-old who hails from the state of Iowa, recently became the all-time leading scorer in the history of college basketball. Throughout her four years playing for the University of Iowa, Clark entertained spectators with her unmatched ability to make shots from long distances. The broadcast of last season’s women’s national championship game between Clark’s Iowa team and the University of South Carolina drew 18.9 million viewers, which not only set the viewership record for a women’s basketball game but actually received higher ratings than the next night’s men’s championship game.

You should do your duty in all things.
You can never do more, you should never wish to do less.

One of my favorite movies is the 1986 film Hoosiers. As a lifelong sports fan and former basketball player, I am drawn to the story of an underdog high school team overcoming the odds to win a championship. Set in the fictional town of Hickory in the early 1950s, it showcases the unique relationship between high school basketball and the culture of rural Indiana.

The title of the film is significant. “Hoosier” has a long history as a colloquial term for natives of Indiana. According to the Indiana Historical Bureau: (more…)

The United States Army recently overturned the convictions of 110 black soldiers for offenses committed during a 1917 mutiny in Houston, Texas. The supposed reason? Racism, of course. The Army Board for Correction of Military Records recommended this action and, on November 13, Secretary of the Army Christine Wormuth gave it her blessing: (more…)
