The week of September 18-24 in the year 2022 is Banned Books Week in libraries across the United States. It’s something of an oxymoron, because the library will feature books that are “banned” — sort of doing the opposite of banning them by calling attention to them. A better name would be “Books Banned by Other People Week.”
A better way of celebrating Banned Books Week would be to feature books banned on Amazon, where we used to be able to browse Jared Taylor’s White Identity, Greg Johnson’s New Right versus Old Right, and Kevin MacDonald’s Culture of Critique. (more…)

Several trends in the United States related to home ownership are developing that I find rather startling. Some of those trends have been slow, taking decades to mature, and perhaps have been noticed by many. Other trends are more acute temporally, springing up only over the past few years.

I have believed for some time that the only way the white West can be saved is disaster. I appreciate that we seem to be in the middle of one, but I will be more specific.
The West, from the eastern borders of Finland and the Visegrád 4 (V4) countries to the Californian coast, needs financial collapse in order to continue. (more…)

On the 15th of September, 1938, UK Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain famously flew across the English Channel (overcoming his fear of flying) for the monumental purpose of meeting Adolf Hitler at the Berghof in order to avert the Sudetenland crisis, and hopefully (yet futilely) avoid plunging Europe into a Second World War. Upon his departure, he gave an impromptu speech to the British press in which he offered his favorite childhood self-motivating pep talk, (more…)
