Ever see one of those “reaction” videos where modern blacks listen to Led Zeppelin songs from 50 years ago . . . and like them?

There’s something both endearing and discomfiting about such spectacles. Led Zeppelin is a white thing. Blacks aren’t supposed to like them. If they were, I never would have made a habit of blasting “Immigrant Song” at red lights to drown out whatever thudding hip-hop ditty the car next to me was blaring at volumes loud enough to dislodge my tooth fillings.

Putin Goes Full-Blown Antagonistic Toward Satanic Anglo-Saxon West

From the very start of the conflict in Ukraine I’ve made clear that I don’t take a side, because the very fact that a World War is brewing while the world economy is already teetering on collapse will be bad for the United States no matter who wins, assuming that there will be any winners when the radioactive dust settles.

The writer Philip Larkin (1922-1985) was born on August 9, 1922, and this essay is part of a commemoration of his centenary. — Ed.

Reading the jazz criticism of the poet Philip Larkin today, the most noticeable feature is how much of the music he did not like. His antipathy towards certain major artists now seems almost incomprehensible. (more…)

On July 12, 2022, TV One News aired a feature on “the rise of online anti-Semitism.” It might be supposed the item was produced to accelerate the introduction of the “hate speech laws.” (more…)

White people get a lot of flak, and most of this criticism is unfair and ridiculous. Whether it be 80 IQ hood rats making excuses for their situation, Jews blaming whites for everything under the sun, or the critical race theory crowd claiming that whites created everything but that this is somehow a bad thing, most anti-white blood libels are simply ridiculous copes for the failures of other races.

Of all the towering luminaries of the civil rights movement, Dr. Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. (MLK) stands out as the most notable. In fact, it’s hardly too much to say that his name was practically synonymous with the movement itself during the tumultuous times in which his presence so galvanized the country. Who could deny that his deeds changed America profoundly, and without them, that things might be much different? (more…)

Eight of the 10 blacks who actually celebrate Kwanzaa.

Public officials still pretend Kwanzaa is a real holiday. It’s taught to schoolchildren as one of the holidays of the “holiday” season, even though nobody knows anyone who actually celebrates it. It’s a day we’re all forced to pretend that being black is a religion, just like Christianity and Judaism. (more…)

Jack Murphy, aka John Goldman, an allegedly conservative “masculinity coach” who will get very angry with you if you suggest he’s gay, even though he’s said publicly that he’s had sex with men and has made videos while using a dildo on himself. He also used to frequently interact with a recent mass shooter on Twitter.

Lyndon McLeod, Jack Murphy, & the Perils of Performative Masculinity

As a wee beardless youth in the brick-and-cement ’burbs of Philadelphia, I found myself watching an old Robert Mitchum film on TV one night and wondering how he managed to be so cool. Then it suddenly occurred to me that his secret was that he didn’t think about being cool; he simply was cool. To become conscious about being cool was to take a long leap away from even hoping to be cool. (more…)

According to the Urban Dictionary, the phrase “Fuck Around and Find Out” means “to fuck with someone that you know shouldn’t be fucked with, then find out why they shouldn’t be fucked with in the most painful and humiliating way possible.”

According to Wikipedia, “The Not Fucking Around Coalition (NFAC) is a black nationalist militia group in the United States . . . [that] advocates for black liberation and separatism.” (more…)

Despite his profound status as the most significant black leader of the twentieth century, embarrassingly little is known about Garvey outside of academia. But as anthropologist Joel Augustus Rogers notes in his homage to this iconoclastic figure, Garvey inspired a spirit of hope in people of African descent that the most virulent form of racism could never quench: (more…)

Contrite acts can never endear the Republican Party to black Americans. For decades, Republicans have naively assumed that blacks will reward them with competitive support for their energetic pandering and they are yet to reap the fruits of their labor. Republicans are unwilling to accept that for black people, voting is an expression of group solidarity. (more…)

Part One

The sedition trials of Gordon and others began in 1943. What communications there were with the Japanese prior to Pearl Harbor reflected an interest among blacks for Japan as a rising “colored” nation. The defeat of Russia in 1905 had been observed by restive colored races, and then the fratricide of World War I. (more…)
