Years ago, back when he was still relevant, documentary filmmaker Michael Moore had this to say about our favorite race of people:

White people scare the crap out of me . . . I have never been attacked by a black person, never been evicted by a black person, never had my security deposit ripped off by a black landlord, never had a black landlord . . . (more…)

Captivity narratives, especially those written by women, were a staple of American literature during the nineteenth century. Stories of white women captured and abused by savage Indians certainly inspired enough fascination and horror in the American public to warrant its own literary genre. And for good reason, considering that there had been thousands of white captives throughout American history up to 1900, and the abuse they in many cases suffered was a fate worse than death.

Southern Nationalist and Identity Dixie founder Padraig Martin, who I interviewed last year, recently published an article which hit close to home for me. (more…)

If the Canadian Left were capable of embarrassment, it suffered a doozy late last month.

For two years, the vengeance-seeking Native American grievance mob, along with virtue-signaling whites, have been sharing horror stories about supposed mass graves of indigenous children hidden at Catholic schools across Canada. (more…)

Governor John A. Mead

A tempest in a teapot started brewing nearly two years ago at Vermont’s Middlebury College which perfectly exemplifies the weak tea that the conservative movement has been serving these past several decades. College President Laurie Patton effected a clandestine name change of a century-old building on campus. Mead Memorial Chapel was to be renamed (or “de-named”) Middlebury Chapel. The chapel’s name had originally honored John A. Mead, a physician who served as Vermont’s Governor from 1910 to 1912. Both an alumnus and trustee of the college, Mead had contributed most of the money for the chapel’s construction in 1916. (more…)

If there is a novelist whose work needs a revival, it’s Norwegian author Knut Hamsun. And if there is any novel of his which deserves being revived, it’s Hamsun’s 1917 classic Growth of the Soil.

Since the Second World War, culture leaders in the West have deliberately neglected works of literature deemed politically inconvenient while promoting those that accord more or less with their globalist, Left-wing agenda. This is why stateless iconoclasts such as Franz Kafka are so celebrated these days while reactionary nationalists such as Hamsun are largely forgotten. (more…)

Harry Richardson & Frank Salter
Anglophobia: The Unrecognised Hatred
Social Technologies, 2023

White advocacy in literature can take many forms, both implicit and explicit. With Anglophobia: The Unrecognised Hatred, authors Harry Richardson and Frank Salter choose the explicit — as the book’s title would suggest. Unlike other works in the dissident Right canon, however, this excellent volume catalogues and itemizes anti-white hatred into a consistent, durable, and easily-understood notion. (more…)

The creation of the Japan Self-Defense Forces in 1954 was an indication of the country’s sharp turn away from demilitarization as the US sought to turn Japan into a Cold War ally.

I will be writing this story mostly as an ignorant Occidental. I freely admit there are important nuances of the following events and characters which remain beyond my grasp. After all, the majority of the source material is in Japanese. Regardless, I found this story so riveting, and the pause it gave me so contemplative, that I feel the need to share it. (more…)

John A. O’Brien
Saints of the American Wilderness: The Brave Lives and Holy Deaths of the Eight North American Martyrs
Manchester, N. H.: Sophia Institute Press, 2004

What if I told you that there exists a book which fully encapsulates what is both glorious and tragic about the white race? Would you buy it? Would you read it? Mind you, there is no middle ground in this book. People who are banal, mediocre, pretty good — not there. The funny, the pleasant, the mildly irritating — all banished. There is no one who is normal or average in this book, okay? (more…)

The following is being published in honor of Knut Hamsun’s 164th birthday on August 4.

It’s one thing to attempt to write a great novel. It’s something else entirely to write a novel to prove a point. The latter is what the young Knut Hamsun attempted to do in 1892 with his second novel, Mysteries. It was a good point, but that doesn’t necessarily make Mysteries a good novel. But it is still a good novel. Perhaps not a great one. (more…)

Fighting back using only the weapons your enemy allows you to use will always fail. This is why we should beware of any so-called allies who insist that we should stick with such dull, worn-out weapons. Either they want us to lose, or they are too clueless to realize how useless these weapons really are.

This occurred to me while reading a Quillette article by Jonathan Kay about the late Canadian school principal Richard Bilkszto. (more…)

A near-perfect embodiment of our current-day troubles has recently metastasized in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Octagon. If the following story has thus far escaped your notice, good. There is nothing inherently interesting or important about this latest discharge of middleweight trash-talk, but what this drama so neatly represents – well, that’s a different story. (more…)
