    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.

    Barbara F. Walter
    How Civil Wars Start: and How to Stop Them
    New York: Random House, 2022

    Barbara F. Walter is a Professor of Political Science at the School of Global Policy and Strategy as well as an Adjunct Professor at UC San Diego. She is also an expert in civil wars and how they start. In her recently-published book, How Civil Wars Start, she makes the case that the United States is headed towards civil war. (more…)

    The Vanishing Tradition:
    Perspectives on American Conservatism

    5,456 words

    Paul Gottfried, editor
    The Vanishing Tradition: Perspectives on American Conservatism
    DeKalb: Northern Illinois University Press, 2020

    The Vanishing Tradition is an anthology edited by Paul Gottfried, and owing to its structure, a proper review is not really possible. Rather, I will individually summarize and comment on each contribution to the anthology. (more…)

    Night of the Living Dead

    2,807 words

    One of the smartest moves I ever made was becoming a “cord cutter.” Aside from the financial benefit, it has served to liberate my mind from the clutter of contemporary pop culture and media propaganda. Nevertheless, I occasionally indulge in streaming old movies, classics, whenever I can find them. (more…)

    The Ideas of Paul Weyrich

    1,310 words

    Paul M. Weyrich & William S. Lind
    The Next Conservatism: Paul Weyrich’s Last Testament
    South Bend, Indiana: St. Augustine’s Press, 2009

    Paul Weyrich (1942 — 2008) was a profoundly influential conservative, dare I say, right-wing activist. He was born and raised in Wisconsin and was a Catholic who rejected the Vatican II reforms. His last book before his death is called The Next Conservatism. It was published in 2009, (more…)

    The Decline of Detroit:
    An American Mythos

    Detroit today

    3,936 words

    Much ink has been spilled on the decline of Detroit, once nicknamed the “Paris of the West.” Conservatives credit its failures to Democratic leadership while Leftists of all flavors conclude it’s Big Racism: America’s largest industry. (more…)

    Imitation of Life & an Imitation of Imitation of Life

    4,134 words

    We live an age where no one wants to be white if they can help it. That’s why you have honkies like Robert “Beto” O’Rourke pretending be Hispanic, Shaun King pretending to be black, and Elizabeth Warren pretending to be Native American. But it was not so long ago when the opposite was true, and it was non-whites who, if possible, tried to pass themselves off as whites. Imitation of Life is a movie about the latter. (more…)

    Four Hundred Years Together:
    Wilmot Robertson on “The Negroes”

    1,519 words

    The New York Times has undertaken a “1619 Project” designed to place “the consequences of slavery and the contributions of black Americans at the center of the national narrative.” In other words, more of the same. While the Times presents the usual fairy tales about put-upon yet angelic blacks being oppressed by malevolent whites, at least one of our thinkers would agree that blacks have a central place in American history.

    How “Civil Rights” Happened:
    A First-Draft Overview

    Harry Truman announcing the Democratic Party’s commitment to “civil rights” at the 1948 convention, after the party’s leadership realized they didn’t need the South’s support to pursue their agenda.

    3,770 words

    Historians puzzle over how the French Revolution happened. How did a powerful monarchy in a powerful nation fall apart and succumb to a radical government that drenched Paris in blood and turned the world’s most economically valuable colony, San Domingo, into the jungle that is today’s Haiti? There are many reasons, of course: (more…)

    Elizabeth Gillespie McRae
    Mothers of Massive Resistance: White Women and the Politics of White Supremacy
    New York: Oxford University Press, 2018

    It is unlikely a book titled Mothers of Massive Resistance would have been published at all except for the fact that white women voted against Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election in enough numbers to sink her election chances. (more…)

    The Citizens’ Councils:
    White Metapolitics 1.0

    2,425 words

    Stephanie R. Rolph
    Resisting Equality: The Citizens’ Council, 1954–1989
    Baton Rouge: Louisiana State University Press, 2018

    The definitive book on the “civil rights” movement remains to be written, but Stephanie Rolph, a Professor (and a privileged “Becky,” no matter what she believes) at Mississippi’s Millsaps College has provided a solid reference for such a book. (more…)

    A Phone Call for Mayhem:
    How JFK Caused the 1960s Race Riots

    2,619 words

    Steven Levingston
    Kennedy and King: The President, the Pastor, and the Battle Over Civil Rights
    New York: Hachette, 2017

    To borrow from the wit of Edward Gibbon:

    If a man were called to fix the period in the history of the world, during which the white race in North America was most foolish and short sighted regarding managing the non-white races in their midst, he would, without hesitation, name that which elapsed from the second term of Eisenhower to the accession of Nixon.
