E. E. Cummings
7,037 words
At the time of his death in 1962, modernist writer E. E. Cummings was the second most widely read poet in the United States after Robert Frost. William Carlos Williams ranked Cummings and Ezra Pound as “beyond doubt the two most distinguished” contemporary American poets. Pound titled his own global selection of poetry of various ages and cultures Confucius to Cummings: An Anthology of Poetry (1964). (more…)
H. P. Lovecraft with Felis
3,233 words
A thought has been lurking in the back of my mind for some time.
In terms of fiction, and even outside it (with the notable exception of H. P. Lovecraft), were certain authors reflexively embraced as soul mates by white conservatives and racialists, in reality . . . anti-white — out of “principle,” opportunism, or just unconsciously? (more…)

The defining characteristic of WASPs is that they are much less ethnocentric than other peoples; indeed for all practical purposes Anglo-Saxon Protestants appear to be all but completely bereft of in-group solidarity. They are therefore open to exploitation by free-riders from other, more ethnocentric, groups. [1]
There is a woeful lack of ethnic consciousness and cohesion among Anglo-Saxons worldwide. (more…)

Discussing Robert Frost’s collection Steeple Bush in the New York Times upon its release in 1947, poet Randall Jarrell devoted the bulk of his review to quoting and summarizing just one poem, “Directive,” saying,
Reading through Frost’s new book one stops for a long time at “Directive. . . .” There are weak places in the poem, but these are nothing . . . (more…)

Since our last update, we have received 16 donations totaling $2,927.88, in amounts ranging from $15 to $1,000. This amount has been matched, for a total of $5,855.76. Our total is now $31,650.64. We are thus $8,349.36 from last year’s goal of $40,000. I want to thank all our donors, new and old, for making Counter-Currents possible. $2,072.12 now remains of the current matching grant. Donate today, and make it go twice as far by picking the pocket of a willing benefactor.
During past years, a number of Counter-Currents writers have written about why they support Counter-Currents, and why you should too: (more…)

In the strict sense, no. There is no Movement, certainly no significant organizational structure, representation within existing institutions, or revolutionary potential geared toward white survival. On the contrary, genocide is the order of the day. (more…)

Tom Wolfe
Back to Blood: A Novel
New York: Little, Brown and Company, 2012
Tom Wolfe’s Back to Blood is a quick read despite its 700-page length, and absorbing. Of his four novels, The Bonfire of the Vanities (1987) about race tensions in New York City is the most famous, but his second, A Man in Full (1998), is better. (more…)

Recent news reports about the ongoing, systematic physical brutalization, prostitution, rape, and sexual exploitation of at least 1,400 white, underage English girls in the city of Rotherham in northern England over many years by South Asian immigrants from Pakistan, Afghanistan, and elsewhere, has prompted the “explanation” that police, politicians, social service workers, and other state employees let it happen because they were “afraid” of being called racists if they tried to stop it.

I stopped reading contemporary literature—works by living novelists and short story writers—when I was in my late teens or early twenties. I found it aesthetically and intellectually unrewarding. The sole exception was the work of journalist-turned-novelist Tom Wolfe, the Virginia-born, New York City-based founder and exponent of New Journalism, a type of feature reporting employing literary techniques.

“Whites are to blame.” Say it with a straight face.
Ordinary whites have some sacred cows, among them Jews, schools, the military, and cops. These individuals and institutions can do no wrong. White support for them is blind and unreasoning—at least until some unlucky soul is singled out as “racist,” “anti-Semitic,” or, possibly, “homophobic.” The true beliefs of the victim are then irrelevant. He becomes a totem, a hate object. (more…)
Herodotus
2,257 words
In The Histories, the Greek historian Herodotus relates an account of a conflict between (Greek) Athenians and a group identified as “Pelasgians.” The story encodes ideas of racial/cultural difference, expulsion, miscegenation, mass murder, and, especially, racial (genetic) dominance that are still relevant today.
The story is related in Book Six, §§6.137–6.140. At some unknown date prior to Herodotus’ time, but still remembered, the Athenians expelled the Pelasgians from Attica, (more…)

This week marks the 40th anniversary of President Richard M. Nixon’s (R.) resignation from office on August 9, 1974 as a consequence of the media-orchestrated Watergate affair.

No group of people can hope to regain control of their destiny unless they possess two essential things: the will to survive as a people, and knowledge. The reader who seeks to have a well-guided will must have an unshakable sense of identity: an understanding of who he is and his relationship to the world around him.

Benjamin West, The Bard, 1778

In retrospect, Aryans appear to have harbored a naïve faith in the natural relationship between reputation, fame, and merit. True, our conceptions served us well enough in our own world. But that was prior to the Age of Defamation. Now we see that fame, reputation, and moral worth can be completely unrelated. It is child’s play for dominant, cunning, and unscrupulous elites to destroy reputations, fabricate evidence and opinions, and reverse the judgments of history—and have their constructs stick, and be universally accepted.

Despite the triumph of modernism, a handful of American sculptors, including Anna Hyatt Huntington, creator of The Torch Bearers (1955), continued to work in the neoclassical mode prior to and after WWII. Huntington was highly regarded for her large-scale public commissions at a time when the preferred product of most women sculptors was the small bronze statuette. In the words of one art journalist, she “made a name for herself depicting fierce creatures, strong leaders, and legendary heroines.”

“Somewhere along the line I am going to meet with an arm of this octopus, and when I do it will lead me to a head, and when I find that I shall cut it off.” — John Drake in “You Are Not in Any Trouble, Are You?” (1965)
I recently watched the 1960s English television series Danger Man (1960–1962, 30 mins.; 1964–1968, 1 hour) starring Patrick McGoohan. It was a popular spy show that made McGoohan a star and enabled him to produce his cult television series The Prisoner (UK, 1967–1968). (more…)
In Israel, Jews use birth control as a weapon of demographic warfare. What makes you think it is any different here?
2,084 words
In early 2013 a brief flurry of international news stories, none very in-depth and virtually all dated between January and March, revealed that Jews were administering Depo-Provera, a long-lasting injectable contraceptive given as a shot in the arm or buttocks every three months, to Ethiopian women in Israel without their informed consent. Many thought they were receiving inoculations or flu vaccinations.

The more one thinks about it, the more obvious it becomes that, where race is concerned, sex is of central importance. A group’s sexual behavior, marriage, reproductive patterns (having or not having children), and family strength are decisive for racial survival and expansion. (more…)

Juden haben viele einzigartige psychologische Charakteristika, durch die sie sich radikal von Nichtjuden unterscheiden. Eine Eigenschaft, die Juden in einer Situation unter vier Augen und sogar in Gruppensituationen an den Tag legen, ist eine scharfsinnige Empfindsamkeit für Feinheiten, Nuancen, Wünsche, Gedanken und Gefühle von Nichtjuden.

Ein Mythos unserer Zeit ist, dass die Familie westlicher Prägung immer noch existiert. Wir vermuten dies ungeachtet der zahlreichen Gegenbeispiele. Als verantwortlich hierfür können die psychologische Langlebigkeit überholter Erfahrungen sowie die Massenmedien gelten, die falsche Wahrnehmungen in unser Unterbewusstsein verpflanzen.

Jews have many unique psychological characteristics that render them radically unlike non-Jews. One quality Jews possess in one-on-one situations, and even group situations, is a keen sensitivity to the subtleties, nuances, desires, thoughts, and emotions of non-Jews. They can size up people of all races and interact with them extremely well. This is no doubt one reason for their prominent role as mediators and go-betweens. (more…)

Whites possess innate psychological and emotional traits that Jews consciously and instinctively exploit to their advantage. Underlying all else is inborn Jewish dominance. Jews are naturally dominant over every race on earth, including whites. Other factors, such as Gentile ambition, self-centeredness, and greed; “fear of the Jews” (fright at the entire gamut of economic, social, legal, psychological, and physical terrorism at their disposal)—or, alternatively, admiration for Jewish brutality—and so forth, play a role as well.
