Many, many years ago — say, during the Nixon administration — I was peripherally involved with kiddy television. Kiddy TV was very hot just then, particularly up in Boston, where they had at least four “educational” kiddy shows running concurrently. (more…)

Each year, Jared Taylor’s American Renaissance names a “White Renegade of the Year,” a tradition begun by Wilmot Robertson’s Instauration. The white renegade of the year is someone who could have used his position to help whites but instead chose to do the opposite. In the same spirit, Counter-Currents is inaugurating a “Non-White Ally of the Year” series, to recognize non-whites who have used their position to help whites.

In 2022, Kanye West — whose popularity and reach came as quite shock to me — received enormous coverage for wearing a White Lives Matter t-shirt. (more…)

„‚Old Believer‘ (ten, kdo neochvějně důvěřuje zavedeným pořádkům – pozn. DP), ryzí moderní konzervativec, protože je ve své podstatě i ryzí klasický liberál, je zřejmě tím vůbec nejefektivnějším americkým typem, který většinu udržuje v bezpečném vakuu rasové apatie.“ – Wilmot Robertson, The Dispossessed Majority

V uplynulých týdnech a měsících jsme byli svědky obnoveného zájmu o konzervatismus, konkrétně o význam této ideologie v moderní Americe a to, jak se jí povede v současné Trumpově éře i po ní. (more…)

If one is reading this website it is highly likely that one has experienced a disastrous face-to-face racial reckoning event. It could be managing some form of African pathology as a supervisor, it could be experiencing a vicious crime, or it could be some other frustration that brought one here. The sudden realization that we aren’t really created equal, that the dream of Martin Luther King is really a nightmare, and that white Americans are under threat as at no other point in their history might make a person do something stupid, but before taking some rash action, one should calm down and read up on the basics of race realism.

Francis Parker Yockey

Thanks in no small part to Counter-Currents, the writings of Francis Parker Yockey are more popular than ever. The Centennial Editions of Yockey’s works follow upon at least two recent biographies of the post-war anti-liberal thinker. This is part of a trend I noted a few years ago. Yockey was all but unknown in his lifetime, but now is more read and relevant than mainstream contemporaries such as Drew Pearson, a Leftist who was once the most widely-read newspaper columnist in America, but faded into obscurity after his death.

The following is a commemoration for Willis A. Carto, who was born 96 years ago today.

About a year ago I stumbled across the online Willis A. Carto correspondence archive. It’s a source of never-ending delight. (more…)

F. H. Buckley just doesn’t get it. He has good instincts and intentions. He’s sniffing around in all the right places. He uses his training in statistics and social science to good effect. (And he’s warm, I’ll give him that.) With all his effort, he could probably discern the exact dimensions of the 500-pound-gorilla-shaped space that’s somehow being occupied in the middle of the room.

But to actually call it a 500-pound gorilla? Never. (more…)

Seth David Radwell
American Schism: How the Two Enlightenments Hold the Secret to Healing Our Nation
Austin: Greenleaf Book Group Press, 2021

It is no secret that the American political scene is polarized. The last two election cycles have brought considerable political violence — most fueled by the Democratic Party and its mainstream media enablers. Recently, Seth Radwell, a Manhattan businessman, took several years off work to write a book that explores this divide. (more…)

It’s been another trip around the Sun. Since nightfall occurs around 5 PM these days, it is time to sit by the fire and reflect upon the events of the last year while preparing for the next.

On the personal front, my usual New Year’s resolutions were successfully fulfilled. (more…)

If some all-knowing, extraterrestrial school teacher sent out report cards on all the dictators who have flourished since World War I, we might be surprised to find the only one with straight A’s was a man most of the Western world has already half forgotten. I am referring to Kemal Atatürk, the fair-haired, blue-eyed Macedonian who transformed the Ottoman Empire (for centuries the “sick man” of Europe) into the streamlined modern state of Turkey, the strongest nation in the Middle East. — Wilmot Robertson, “Homage to Kemal Atatürk” (more…)

بروفيسور كارلتون كون

عرف كارلتون ستيفنز كون (1904-1981) كيفية استخدام قبضتيه. فعندما كان صبياً قام بضرب عين طفل آخر، كان من أوائل الكاثوليك الأيرلنديين الذين عاشوا في بلدته. وفي وقت لاحق، قام بطرد شخص ألباني من الشقة بينما كان يجري بحثاً أنثروبولوجياً في البلقان. وخلال الحرب العالمية الثانية، سارع بمساعدة ضابط فرنسي كان يهاجمه أحد سكان كورسيكا. في مناسبة أخرى ، قام بلكم رجل آخر بسبب تفسيراتهم المختلفة لحرب عام 1812. هذه الروح القتالية ساعدت كون أثناء مسيرته المهنية في مجال مثير للجدل للغاية: الدراسة الجسدية والثقافية الإنسانية.

Carleton Stevens Coon (1904-1981) knew how to use his fists. As a boy, he knocked out the eye of another kid, who had been one of the first Irish Catholics to live in his town. He later laid an Albanian out flat while he was carrying out anthropological research in the Balkans. During the Second World War, he rushed to the aid of a French officer who was being attacked by a Corsican. (more…)
