    The Birth of Post-War American Conservatism in Detroit

    1,365 words

    Colleen Doody
    Detroit’s Cold War: The Origins of Postwar Conservatism
    Urbana, Ill.: University of Illinois Press, 2013

    In 1945, with the exception of the United States, Canada, and a few other places, the civilized world was in ruins. While the industrial centers of the United States were not burned-out husks pocked with bomb craters, the economy was not well-functioning. There was inflation and a shortage of consumer goods.

    The Extraordinary Woman from the Midwest

    Phyllis Schlafly’s critique of the Republican Party changed its focus and direction.

    2,020 words

    Phyllis Schlafly
    A Choice Not an Echo
    Alton, Ill.: Pere Marquette Press, 1964

    Many of the greatest pioneers of Right-wing political thought in the United States are women. Right-leaning men are often too busy with their jobs and putting out the fires to be prophets. Female activists, for their part, have a remarkable ability to challenge and change the direction of institutions. One such woman was Phyllis Schlafly (1924-2016). (more…)

    Conservatives Can’t Give Up On “Team USA”

    Simone Biles

    1,458 words

    The Olympics are finally over and Team USA managed to edge out China for gold medals, but fewer Americans were ecstatic for the athletic triumph. In fact, a sizable number of conservatives rooted against America in some of the competitions, particularly women’s soccer. (more…)

    The Real Meaning of Juneteenth

    1,481 words

    Unless you’re a Texan, you probably never heard of Juneteenth until last week.

    This holiday celebrates the end of slavery and has long been a minor holiday in the Lone Star State. It commemorates the day — June 19, 1865 — where the Union declared all slaves in the state of Texas free, (more…)

    The World the Civil Rights Movement Wrought:
    Caldwell’s The Age of Entitlement

    1,664 wordsCover of Christopher Caldwell's book, The Age of Entitlement.

    Christopher Caldwell
    The Age of Entitlement: America Since the Sixties
    New York: Simon & Schuster, 2020

    The 1960s forever transformed America. Race relations, sexual relations, popular culture, music, foreign policy, trust in government, and urban life were all dramatically changed. (more…)

    Remembering Revilo Oliver (July 7, 1908–August 20, 1994)
    Revilo Oliver in Winter

    1,992 words

    Today is the birthday of Revilo Pendleton Oliver, born in Texas in 1908. He was Professor of Classics and Modern Languages at the University of Illinois (Champaign-Urbana) for many years, an analyst with the War Department in the 1940s, and a contributor to the National Review and other publications from the 1950s onward.

    The Republican Workers Party:
    A Review

    2,403 words

    F. H. Buckley
    The Republican Workers Party: How the Trump Victory Drove Everyone Crazy, and Why It Was Just What We Needed
    New York: Encounter Books, 2018

    Any book that celebrates the 2016 election while denying the crucial role that race and ethnonationalism played in the rise of Donald Trump is just asking not to be taken seriously. (more…)

    Why I Still Refuse to Abandon the Republicans

    Jeb Bush with a supporter

    1,967 words

    It’s easy to look back in anger. But is it always the right thing to do? The present, armed with hindsight, will always trump the past. It’s like an unfair fight that way. Nothing seems more obvious than a painful mistake when viewed in hindsight. But without hindsight, much less is obvious.

    The Brief, Shining Moment of Lindsey Graham

    1,895 words

    I’ve always thought of Lindsey Graham as a milquetoast and a useless RINO. But – surprise, surprise – last Thursday he emerged as the man of the hour, with his impassioned defense of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. Graham’s unscripted remarks (totaling less than five minutes) are fascinating in part because they give us a window into the mind of a conventional establishment conservative – (more…)

    Principalities & Powers, Part One:
    The Education of David Duke

    David Duke in 1989

    2,243 words

    The time has come, to paraphrase Caspar Gutman in Dashiell Hammett’s The Maltese Falcon, for plain speaking and clear understanding. Last November, David Duke failed to win the  governorship of Louisiana, but he did gain some 39 percent of the popular vote and carried a majority — about 55 percent — of the white vote. (more…)

    Marching through the Institutions:
    A Review of No Campus for White Men

    2,087 words

    Scott Greer
    No Campus for White Men
    WND Books, 2017

    The point of American conservatism is misdirection. It is a movement designed to fail, a program organized to lose, a racket masquerading as resistance. For that reason, much of what passes as “intellectual conservatism” is an attempt to disguise the obvious and to funnel political momentum into pointless dead ends. (more…)

    Where Conservatism Went Wrong:
    A Review of The Great Purge: The Deformation of the Conservative Movement

    2,310 words

    Paul E. Gottfried & Richard B. Spencer (eds.)
    The Great Purge: The Deformation of the Conservative Movement
    Arlington, Va.: Washington Summit Publishers, 2015

    All political movements need a history, and such histories, if well-constructed, almost always coalesce into myth. Once mythologized, a movement’s past can inform its present members about its reason for being, its need for continuing, and its plans for the future. (more…)
