Time Text
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to another episode of Radio Renaissance.
I'm Henry Wolf, here once more with Paul Kersey of Stuff Black People Don't Like.
Paul, we've got another riveting episode for the listeners today.
How are you doing? Hey, I'm doing fantastic.
I also want to thank everyone out there who listens and offers feedback.
People are very, very excited about the energy level that Mr.
Wolf has brought to these wonderful podcasts, these broadcasts that we bring to you every week.
And I know that a lot of people have said, where's Mr.
Taylor? Where's Jared? But at the same time, you guys are loving the addition.
Well, people shouldn't get too much anxiety about it because Mr.
Taylor is not permanently gone.
He is going in and out of town.
He's at a doctor's appointment right now.
So we are doing the podcast early this week on a Wednesday instead of Friday, and I will be the stand-in.
Without further ado, we should go ahead and hop in.
We've got some terrible news, Mr.
Kersey. It's really a tragedy that has unfolded in the Midwest.
Really, the heart of America.
We've got Eastern Michigan University.
There have been a plague of racial incidents.
Starting last September, we've got spray-painted in red, white, and blue on campus, KKK. And underneath it, leave, end bomb.
And then we've also got the very next day after this was discovered, a racial slur was found in a hallway.
And you're not going to believe this.
I need you to remain seated.
Sit down. In a bathroom stall.
Someone put a racial slur there.
So these are very traumatic events.
Needless to say, there have been mass mobilizations on campus, occupations of buildings, and we've had the school bending over backwards.
We've got new programs. We've got new set-aside areas for non-whites.
We've got more attention given to diversity and staff and all these things.
And I think that once we've spent enough millions on this, I think that the craziness will subside and there will be no more of this vandalism.
Oh, Mr.
Kersey. Hi, what's up?
Mr. Kersey, I'm just getting a transmission in across the news desk here.
The perpetrator of these attacks has been found.
It is one Eddie Kro...
No. This can't be right.
There's a photo here, and it's a black man.
Eddie Kerlin is a 29-year-old former Eastern Michigan University student, and yes, he is a black man who, in September 2016, was the individual who allegedly, allegedly wrote the message of the Klan being on campus, I guess, and the Mr.
Kersey, I can't understand what the motive would be for a black man to do something like this.
Hold on. What do we got?
We've got... Okay, here we are.
The university police chief, Robert Hayes, he told the media in a press conference, we've got, quote, it was totally self-serving.
It was not driven by politics.
It was not driven by race.
So evidently, this black man put these racial slurs on campus.
For no particular reason, just a personal one.
Maybe it was how he got his jollies off or something.
It certainly wasn't to stoke up racism hysteria and cause the massive backlash and set-asides for non-whites that this hoax stoked.
There's no way that that was the case.
It's crazy to think.
I don't even remember the year that the University of Missouri had all their problems.
It was 2015.
Right around then, yeah. 2015, the infamous poop swastika.
Oof. No one ever saw any evidence of it.
And then the homosexual black president of the student body at Missouri, he then claimed later that he was walking on campus and some students were driving around in a truck and they threatened him they had a Confederate flag.
Even though there was no evidence to ever support this, the administration, the media took it on face value that a poop swastika was found, that there was Systemic racism against blacks on campus at this traditional white university.
They're actually called predominantly white institutions.
That's the formal acronym.
This one though is so stunning because as you said, the amount of concessions made to the
united people of color and their white allies, their woke white allies, was phenomenal in terms of money
that could have gone to actually benefit all students.
Instead, it's being allocated to further the university center aims, multicultural centers, and I'm sure
that some of the money was actually given to probably bring in some more black PhDs completely wedded
to Tiny Easy Coats' thesis and aware that there is some sort of epidemic of violence
against black bodies there at the University of Eastern Michigan.
Well, this latest revelation, I'm just picking up on this as we speak.
It's apparently causing a lot of anxiety on campus because students are worried that these set-asides are going to disappear now that they found out that it was all a hoax.
And that would make sense, right?
I mean, if the pretext for these programs is undermined, they should go away, right?
I mean, one would assume.
So we've got student Teresa Moore.
She says, quote, We've got President James Smith.
Coming to your aid, he says, Who cares about the truth?
Who cares? Well, again, Mr.
Curlin, the gentleman who allegedly wrote this message, I still believe, perhaps, like you probably do, we're incredulous.
There's got to be someone else out there that framed this black body.
He was taken.
He's the Patsy. He's the Steve Paddock in this situation.
I didn't say that. Forget that I even said that.
My point is this. This story is so galling when you think about, yes, you're right.
A story that was a hoax, everything that came afterwards, we should actually reevaluate.
Say to ourselves, well, wait a second.
If this was a black dude who allegedly did this, how can we blame all white students and how can we then capitulate?
So completely to this mindset that there is pervasive white racism on Eastern Michigan's campus.
That's right. And we should not, you know, we should not use euphemisms when we talk about this because these concessions, what these concessions ultimately mean is fewer white people on campus, fewer faculty, fewer staff, fewer dollars going to programs that might possibly benefit all students, including white students.
That's what it means.
This is a zero-sum thing.
White students are being penalized for something that was done by a former black student who only got to the school in 2014 after he had just finished serving four years in jail, by the way, for burglary, and who actually was arraigned just in August on a totally unrelated theft charge.
This guy is a now career criminal, is what it's coming to, who was a student for two years.
And because of his actions, white students on campus are going to be treated worse off than they would have been otherwise.
Well, look at it this way. All the people who were partaking and participating in these events after these slurs were found, they would look at their fellow white students with suspicion.
This creates a climate of hate and that's what these hate crime hoaxes,
that's why they're so important to document and to continue to to ask
ourselves what is the ultimate outcome going to be and that is creating a
divisive nature on campus where all white students are in the eyes of the
people of color on campus potentially a suspect.
That's right. Because if they don't denounce it thoroughly enough, if they aren't out there participating in the riots.
You also said something really fascinating, Mr.
Wolf. You talked about how this is going to create a number of positions that will be set aside for black faculty.
That's right. Columbia University just dedicated $100 million to diversifying their faculty, to getting more non-whites on the staff.
That was without a provocation such as this.
Do you remember also the incident that took place at Harvard where someone said, I can't remember if it was a student, but there were pictures of black faculty and they were taken down and They're like, oh look!
Somebody went and they drew on the black faculty.
They drew with markers.
And the question was, well, obviously there's going to be A, some video evidence, because there's CCT cameras everywhere now in campus buildings.
But B, why don't we do some fingerprint analysis?
I think this is on Saylor's site.
They're like, well, why don't you just find out the person who...
The person who actually turned in and said, hey, there's drawings on this painting.
Why don't you actually take...
Do they have ink on their hands?
Because it does not matter.
We wrote a big story back, I think, in 2014, 2013, about a big DOJ settlement out of UCSD. I wrote the story, actually.
It was like... Massive investigation.
Massive concessions.
It was because they had found like a noose in the library and things.
And it turned out that all of this was done by non-whites.
There were a series of racial incidents.
There was an off-campus party at which people were encouraged to dress up like stereotypes of blacks.
It turns out that it was a black person who put on the party, and he was a shock jock, and this is the sort of thing he did.
Did that stop the concessions?
No. And the news stories that announced this ultimate settlement between the DOJ and the university, which they agreed to give millions and millions of dollars and set-asides and faculty positions, didn't even mention the fact that all of these events turned out to be a hoax.
What we've got here is basically a conspiracy that exists between the government, the media, the students, and the administration of the universities, where basically they're looking for what end up being false flag events.
I mean, almost never These events turn out to be real.
One exception, I think, was at Ole Miss when someone put a noose on a black statue or something, and that student is now doing hard time.
They got the book thrown at them.
They got the book thrown at them. But that is the exception that proves the rule, which is that these are almost invariably hoaxes.
But it doesn't matter because there's a massive anti-white conspiracy and they just look for a pretext.
And when it's found out that the pretext was BS, it doesn't matter.
It's all gone. This guy is being charged with three counts of malicious destruction of property.
He's got some other charges against him, but those are for unrelated things.
But for these offenses, he's getting charged with three misdemeanors.
That's it. That's it.
Cost police. They spent 1,080 hours This is a slap on the wrist.
Total slap on the wrist. All white people are presumed racist.
There is no way to get your innocence, even if you are a woke white ally of the Black Lives Matter movement or of this continued push to dispossess whites and at the same time demonize all whites who aren't sufficiently aracial when it comes to concepts of white identity.
I mean, my gosh, could you imagine if some students at Eastern Michigan University were
listening to this podcast and a black student walked by the room and they happened to hear
some of the things we're talking about?
At a time when the culture of hate on college campuses is so great that one student, I don't
remember the school, but they found a shoelace outside on a bush and they thought it was
a noose.
I don't remember the campus.
This was about two weeks ago.
Forgive me there.
These people are being conditioned to look for hate symbols wherever they see it, at a point where they even have to make them up, or they have to go out and, as Mr.
Curlin is alleged to have do, once again, presumed innocent until proven guilty, he went out and he wrote these slurs by himself.
This reminds me of a story that happened right after the election in December in New Jersey.
An NFL football player, his first name, I think it's Nikita, he was a, I can't remember his actual name, but that's not important.
What's important is that he claimed he was out one day.
He came back into his home and that it was vandalized.
And that there were racial slurs written everywhere.
And that a lot of his jewelry was stolen.
I've been looking since that incident happened.
It was reported to the police for a follow-up story.
And there hasn't been a follow-up.
Because it's like, well, what happened?
Did they find out? Did they actually do analysis to figure out fingerprints?
To me, that was one of the clear-cut examples of...
Wow, this guy was on the verge of being cut...
From the NFL for good, he did this to himself.
And we haven't heard anything about it since, but the amount of publicity that it got from ESPN and the national media when he went to the police and said, racial slurs were written in my house.
That press was so over the top, Mr.
Wolf, because... It proves the thesis that these events are important to create this perception of pervasive white supremacy, white racism that is everywhere.
And that's why you have to continue to throw money at the problem or else it's never going to go away.
Not only that, it has to be combated even to a point if you have to make up these incidents to create the pretext for the precautionary measures to exist.
It keeps Whitey on the hop, which is the goal.
And I'll tease a little something for our listeners that we're working on.
At American Renaissance, and that is a map of hate crime hoaxes.
We are going to go back the same way we did with the anti-Trump crimes, violent attacks against Trump supporters map, which was very popular and Coulter cited it.
It's been posted all over the internet, still gets a lot of traffic on our site, thousands of hits a day.
We are putting together a similar map for hate crime hoaxes.
And we're going to document all the incidents we can find.
And there's going to be a tremendous amount of data and information here from which people will be able to derive solid conclusions.
You know, what do these people end up being charged for?
Are they students?
Are they not? We're documenting all of this information and we're going to have that hopefully within the next month.
So that's a little teaser.
That's our effort to tear down this narrative that there's this epidemic of hate crimes.
It's almost invariably hoaxes.
You're talking about 40 plus days going back to that outlandish number of 1,080 hours of
police work put in.
Imagine the overtime.
Imagine what that costs the taxpayers of, forgive me, I don't know the city where Eastern
Michigan is located, but the point is all of the money and the resources that were put
in, think about if you had a family member who was a victim of a crime or a homicide
and you had more of an interest by the police into what has become, what looks like yet
which is obviously another hate hoax.
And we should say that that 1080 was just of the campus police, not to mention the FBI, which got involved.
And always does in these events.
I mean, you're talking federal resources.
They probably had to deploy a team to this area to investigate that.
So who knows how many hundreds of thousands of dollars are poured into investigating this, which we won't expect restitution from Mr.
Kerlin if in fact he's found to be guilty.
You know, it's just not going to happen.
You know, I mentioned that event with the NFL player who got a lot of positive publicity because he claimed he was a victim of racism and went on a number of the shows because, once again, whenever you can, hit Whitey over the head with a brick of, hey, you're...
One white person discriminated, that means all white people are discriminated against me.
Remember, that's what these hate incidents, that's what a white-on-black crime represents.
It somehow is reflective of the entire white population, of not just the city where it happened, not just the campus, but of all white people somehow share blame in this crime.
As all white people, even though you and I have never set foot on Eastern Michigan University's campus, We somehow play a part in creating this culture of intolerance for minority students.
We had a hand in posting that racist message in the bathroom stall or writing the slurs.
And exactly as you say, the media eat this stuff up.
It's great news for them.
They love fostering anti-white hysteria.
They love this stuff.
They'll mention on page D10... That it was a hoax, but it's going to be an A1 story when the thing comes out.
Media love advancing their narrative.
And we saw it yesterday.
We could talk about Jeff Flake, the new media darling.
We've got Jeff Flake yesterday, for anyone who's not familiar, he gave his retirement speech on the Senate floor, announced that he is not going to seek re-election to the Senate.
He says on the speech, which Some said was his finest hour, this historic speech, historic speech.
He says, quote, We've got a new media darling on our hands.
It was George Bush last week, who now I just saw a poll.
A majority of Democrats see him favorably.
Whoever thought that would happen.
But how do you get there?
You get there by denouncing Trump.
And now we've got Jeff Flake stepping up to the plate, trying to outdo George W. Bush.
Well, not just George W. Bush last week who attacked nativism and who somehow puts on
the pedestal globalism as the great goal, the stretch goal that we should all try and
achieve is basically submission to globalism, this anti-white universalist creed.
The junior senator from Arizona, Jeff Flake, of course, is in battle right now because
he's got a primary challenge against a female who ran last time against Charlie K.
Clinton.
Yes, and she's dominating him in the polls.
I saw some polls where she was up by significant double digits.
So we would be remiss if we didn't point out Mr. Wolf that he was looking to lose a very
embarrassing primary, a very embarrassing primary.
There's no question.
He's put himself out there as this key never Trump guy.
And you look at the guy and you can see that he's never Trump.
He looks exactly like Ben Sasse.
These guys, they've all got cut face.
They look the same.
They've got these droopy eyelids.
They're not very impressive guys.
And they came out swinging against Trump, looking to get those head pats from the media.
And that's really what they live for.
It's not for their constituents.
It's, you know, they'll pretend like, oh, we're pro-free market because, you know, we believe that it's the best thing for our people.
We want them to have cheaper stuff at Walmart, even though their jobs are being shipped overseas.
Like, that's not what it's about.
What it's about is getting headpats from the media and from their lobbyists and being submissive to the interests of big business.
You know, these guys can pretend to be saints all they want, but we understand what is behind them, and it's sick, and it's dark.
You know, Mr.
Flake gave this speech yesterday, and only one senator didn't stand.
Every other Republican senator stood up and clapped.
And this was a gentleman who, a year ago, basically...
Was a guy like Jeff Flake?
Was someone like Ben Sasse?
I'm talking about Rand Paul, the junior senator from Kentucky.
Here's a guy who went to Detroit and proudly wore a Detroit Republican shirt.
Here's a guy who took a picture with Al Sharpton on the cusp of the Ferguson situation and was talking about police reform, criminal justice reform, throwing police officers under the bus because of this anti-police, which at its heart is an anti-white narrative.
Rand Paul has, something has snapped in his mind, and he's beginning to realize, because Rand Paul's a pretty smart guy, he realizes, and he has realized for quite some time, because he has hitched his wagon to the Trump train.
He knows, and he understands, that the Republican Party is increasingly going back, well, I won't say going back, the Republican Party is increasingly taking on the mindset that propelled his father to write those Well, we shouldn't give Rand Paul too much credit.
I think he was our white renegade of the year a couple years ago.
Gregory Hood dubbed him that.
So he's had a very ambiguous background, but he was dubbed that.
He was given that title by American Renaissance because he had so much potential.
And we give the White Renegade Award at the New Year to someone who had the most potential, but then did the most to harm their people.
Renegade, yeah. And Rand seems to have thought that his path to victory in the election was going to be kowtowing to non-whites.
And yeah, he did this really embarrassing commercial where he like took a chainsaw to
the tax code, like thousands of pages, and like while wearing this Detroit Republican
shirt, he went there and did some big speech announcing the opening of the Republican office
there.
Look, we understand how insane this is.
These people are not interested in free enterprise.
They're interested in handouts, okay?
And they want big government.
They explicitly say that.
There's no desire for what Rand Paul is offering.
So I don't know whether he's come to a revelation that, you know, only white people want what he's selling.
I'm not sure if he's there yet, but I think he does realize that Trump is going to be there with him on a lot of foreign policy objectives, potentially, and that, you know, Trump is going to buck the tide of the establishment.
And also, I think he just doesn't like this grandstand.
Well, we would be...
It would be an error on our part if we also didn't point out that he also is totally against these pointless wars that the neocons have been all about.
And he also understands, which I think we're about to get to, the point that Rand Paul was also against a lot of the amnesty pushes.
He was a vociferous critic when the whole Gang of Eight stuff happened.
He was one of the few people who was out there.
And you have to wonder.
We all think...
What is really going on in some of these meetings with Trump?
What does Don Jr.
and his dad and Eric Trump, what do they talk about?
I would love to know what Rand and Donald are talking about in the golf course.
Because if you've seen pictures, they become more buddy-buddy.
You have to wonder what he's being promised.
What he's being told is down the road for him.
Because think about this.
Think about this. And I'm going to speculate here.
This is a little different than what AR usually talks about, Mr.
Wolf. But... There's a lot of people out there who believe that the Secretary of State position is going to be up soon.
Tillerson is on the way out.
What if there's a position for Rand Paul to come in?
I would be all for that.
Personally, AR doesn't talk about foreign policy, but most of our supporters are against these wars and are more paleoconservative, more Buchananite in their perspective on foreign policy.
So that would be fine. The reason why I bring that point out, Mr.
Wolf, is because when we go back and look at this speech that Flake gave yesterday, it is being called by some Defiant surrender.
Defiant surrender on the part of conservatives.
Now, Republicans, since the invention of the ideology that National Review made so famous with Buckley, have all been about supposedly standing up thwart history yelling stop, when actually the reality is what they've done is they have gladly been a willing ally in this Anti-white ideology that has steamrolled across America and remade America in, you know, egalitarian hue.
You pointed out before we got on this fantastic podcast, Mr.
Wolf, you said that now for the first time we're seeing acquiescing to our ideas.
That's right. I mean, defiant surrender is the quintessential conservative move.
It's like some professional skateboarders, they might have a go-to move, a signature move.
The signature move for conservatives is the defiant surrender.
It's seizing the moral high ground or attempting to.
Even though you'll get no credit for it, as you lose, as you surrender, as the culture moves further away from you, as entitlements increase, as immigration increases, as the country transforms, you grasp for the moral high ground.
And that's what Flake did in his speech yesterday.
It was really a quintessential conservative move.
And as you say, we're used to watching their submission and just rolling our eyes and being like, oh my gosh, when are we going to get someone in who is uncut?
And we hoped that Donald Trump would be that guy, and that's yet to be determined.
But finally, we are benefiting from this submission because Flake is getting out.
It's not... it's not...
Preordained whether he was going to lose his primary.
We don't know. I mean, he's not very popular among Republicans in the state.
We've got a morning consult poll that was conducted from a month ago to yesterday, which showed that his overall approval ratings, he's got 30% approval, 53% disapproval among Republicans, 37% approval, 50% disapproval.
So he's not looking good. But he seems to think that this is proof that someone who is pro-immigration and pro-shipping our jobs overseas has no place in the Republican Party.
I don't know whether that's true or not yet.
He seems to have submitted preemptively, for which we can be very grateful.
Well, not just Jeff Flake, but prior to that, Bob Corker, of course, did, the senior senator from Tennessee, a longtime senator.
In a lot of ways, you could say a beloved senator from that state.
Yet, at the same time, when Trump came along, He exposed that the Republican Party, the proverbial emperor, had no clothes.
The way that they had positioned themselves to their constituents when they came to Washington was the exact opposite of what they advocated for.
Trump was, for all the negatives that people have with Donald Trump, he did win the election because he came out and was steadfast about a Muslim ban, building the wall, and being hardcore against Immigration.
You go back to that amazing speech he gave in Arizona when people thought that he was going to cuck on immigration back in 2016, and instead he basically came out and gave A speech that, as he was reciting the lines that Steve Miller wrote, I'm sure Steve Miller was smiling a mischievous smile knowing that.
Yeah. You thought he was going to cut, guys?
Listen to this. And that's what got Donald Trump elected.
And as we've seen, the whole idea, the whole metaphor of the swamp, this really is the draining of the swamp.
When you have these people who would rather stand with the left, who would rather...
Capitulate and surrender to all the ideas of the left just so they can stay in their good graces and be invited to the right cocktail parties.
That's right. Or do the bidding of their big business overlords and their lobbyists.
And we should mention that Flake was actually on the Gang of Eight that came up with the amnesty bill.
And of course, he voted for it.
And so did Bob Corker.
So we've got two more guys who voted for the Gang of Eight amnesty bill.
I think there were 11 total Republican senators who did so.
They're out. We've got, well, five total out, including Corker and now Flake.
Mr. Wolf, let me ask you something.
A lot of people made a big deal about Steve Bannon's war against the Republican establishment.
Now, of course, we don't have a large enough...
There's not enough data.
There's been one primary involving a key Senate seat, and that, of course, is in the great state of Alabama, where Roy Moore and Luther Strange, they met in a runoff.
Unfortunately, the great Mo Brooks came in third.
I wish it would have been Mo Brooks against Luther Strange, because Mo Brooks, of course, has come out and said, there is a war on whites.
Music to our ears.
And that's a tease for a little later, what we're getting into, but...
We still don't know the depth of this battle that Steve Bannon is waging against the Republican establishment.
We know that two people have now voluntarily left as opposed to being
As opposed to being exposed and embarrassed in a primary situation, but mr. Wolf
What are your thoughts on what Roy Moore's victory means in the primary?
He still has to win the actual election between the Democrat
He will but perception or reality bannons war. That's the big question
That is the big question is you know, we've obviously Roy Moore won and he's got you know
a lot of good sound positions on immigration and things.
He's got a lot of odd positions, positions that most would look at and be like, wow, I don't know if this guy could win or not.
But he won in Alabama.
The question is whether Alabama is a representative state.
I think no other state went more for Trump than Alabama.
Whites in Alabama voted...
As blacks did for Clinton everywhere else.
I think it was like 85% of whites went for Trump.
Pure racial headcount. So it was really extreme.
And so is Alabama a good test case?
I mean, this is... I think his biggest rallies were in Alabama.
It's unclear to me.
But, you know, people were willing to say, oh, Bannon's faction won out.
Roy Moore's victory is a win for Bannon's faction.
And it seems like people like Jeff Flake may have just, they may be preemptively surrendering.
They may be saying, well, I... I can't stand the thought of possibly going up against Steve Bannon in a primary.
And so he's just preemptively surrendering and lying down.
All great points.
Or you have to ask yourself, what type of internal polling do they have from the lobbyists they're listening to, from the, not the pundits, but from the consultants that are advising them.
You have to wonder, what do they know about what's going on at the ground level there in Arizona?
This wave, this Trumpian wave that is rising.
When you consider that How can I put this?
When you consider the people who have completely come around to Trump, like take for instance a Laura Ingraham.
I can remember Laura Ingraham during the Bush years.
She was one of the biggest Bush supporters imaginable.
Or Sean Hannity.
Fantastic growth in their audience and some of the more important metrics like social media.
I know Laura's got a new book that just came out, which is incredibly populist in nature and just goes after these hucks, these hucksters, these cucks, all rhyming words like Flake and Corker and these people who did try and sell us out with a gang of eight.
And like you noted, there are still a lot of Republicans who have to go down.
I think we're seeing more and more signs that Trumpism is beyond Trump.
And I think that Roy Moore was a big evidence of that.
I mean, the fact that Trump went all in for Luther Strange, Bannon went all in for Roy Moore and said Roy Moore is the true Trump guy, and Roy Moore won.
I mean, this is despite a presidential endorsement.
Trump went and campaigned in the state.
Pence was there the eve of the election.
He was there holding a simultaneous rally to Steve Bannon.
You can't Have a more clear-cut case of showing that, look, it's about the ideas.
And I've actually been very gratified to see that Sean Hannity has pushed back a little bit against Trump on certain issues.
When he starts signaling that he's going to cook on DACA or something like that, Hannity pushes back.
He says, this isn't what we voted for.
And you know that Trump watches that show.
And I see that now Ingram is going to have a more and more prominent role at Fox News.
We're going to have a staunch lineup of Trumpian people at Fox News, where you have Tucker, Ingram, and Hannity.
And they'll hold Trump's feet to the fire.
They eclipse Trumpianism espoused by people, like all those individuals he named, and I would argue Bannon, to the most part, especially what he just did in California, where the Republican Party is in tatters.
I mean, it has been since Pete Wilson...
Had his aborted run for president and he couldn't speak at a time when the Republican Party, even though the Democrats had just won in 1992, you had the passage of Prop 187, which was the last gasp of white Californians.
God, I just saw a poll, or I just saw some data that shows that I think 22% of public school students now are Caucasian in the state, down from, you know, I think 40% in early 1990s.
Just a dramatic drop. I've got a lot of family in California and it is...
You know, you have to wonder when the John Wayne airport is going to be renamed because, of course, John Wayne gave a pretty famous interview to Playboy where he came out and said he was a white supremacist in the 1970s.
So you have to wonder when you're going to see the demographic...
Night really hit hard in a state like that.
And that is the thing that I still hold out hope for Bannon.
Because one of the things that Steve Bannon was attacked for the most when he was an advisor.
And I'm curious that they've dropped this.
Probably because they don't want people to go out and buy the book.
But Bannon always talked about Camp of the Saints on his radio program.
This is a book that he talked about apparently in speeches.
He still brings it up. Bannon does not stop talking about this book and what is Camp of the Saints except for warning of the demographic eclipse of Europeans and their ancestors throughout the world that they've colonized.
Bannon has even more interest in Camp of the Saints than you might imagine, but I can't go into it.
Can't go in. So, yeah, it's very emblematic.
California, of course, is, you know, demographics is destiny, and the destiny is now in California.
We see it very clear.
And, you know, I think whites are waking up more and more to this reality.
You saw a poll out of NPR conducted it with, I think, like a Harvard Business School and a couple other A couple other people, that was big news yesterday because it showed that 55% of whites believe that there is discrimination against whites in this country.
And it's a much smaller number who in the polls said that they had personally experienced it.
I think it was under 20% who said that they personally experienced it, but 55% said that there is discrimination against whites.
This caused an uproar.
As we discussed, I mean, what's shocking here, this is basically a political IQ test.
It's basically saying, do you know that affirmative action exists?
The only institutional discrimination in America anymore The discrimination that's codified in law is anti-white.
It's affirmative action laws and diversity policies.
And it's very clear.
But people don't know about it.
They're not aware of it. They don't care about it.
I don't know. Why do only 55% of whites say this?
That's my question. Well, look at it this way.
Look back to 2016 before Scalia passed away.
There was going to be a big Supreme Court case on affirmative action on college campuses.
And Scalia came out and So you just asked, you just asked Mr.
Wolfe, Only 55%.
How is that the case? Well, our president, in a lot of ways, he admitted that.
He didn't agree with what Scalia's opinion on what you just said, codifying this discrimination.
And as you noted so succinctly, that is the only official institutionalized discrimination allowed.
That is against racial preferences in an education.
That's right. I remember in college, I had a political science class and I had a black professor and she was talking about institutional racism.
It was a political psychology class.
I have no idea why this was brought up in that class.
But anyways, she said, can anyone name an example of institutional racism?
And, you know, people were quiet.
So I raised my hand and said, well, affirmative action.
And she said, well, that's not true.
And I said, how? You know, I just read the definition.
It says, you know, discrimination by a government against a particular racial group like this.
Affirmative action by definition is that.
Correct. I mean, it allows discrimination like this.
And she tries to spin it as, oh, well, it has to be against a group that's not in power.
I'm like, well, that's not in the textbook.
And she said, see me after class.
So it was pretty funny.
A bunch of students came up to me after and were like, hey, you're right.
But she was not happy about it.
She really couldn't explain herself.
Payback against white is always protected by the U.S. Constitution.
Did you know that? I know.
Apparently so. Equal protection doesn't apply to whites.
It's funny because... Don't worry about it.
And that's the terrifying rally.
And that's why we see...
That's why we see the alternative right or whatever we want to call ourselves, whatever we represent.
That's why our numbers continue to grow regardless of the attacks, regardless of, I don't want to say negative publicity, but regardless of events that are outside our control.
Young people, people our age, people in college, people in high school.
I mean, my God, we're at a point now where math I mean, mathematics? I mean, what?
This is... What?
Well, they said, look at who is touted as people who did major advances in mathematics.
You're talking about Newton.
You're talking about Leibniz. You're using, you know, all these Greek letters in your mathematical formula.
You can't do that. That's, you know, it's not inclusive.
And then I think she said something like, who's the best at mathematics?
And then it was like, you can't do that because that's a white privilege or something like that.
You know, Mr. Wolfe, going back to the study that NPR commissioned, it's important to also juxtapose that data with how whites perceive the group, Caucasians as a whole, to be discriminated against.
And as you noted, less than 20% have stated that they face personal discrimination.
Look at a story like what's going on with the NAACP and American Airlines.
Earlier this year, we had the NAACP come out and say that Blacks should boycott touring the state of Missouri.
Right. That they should just boycott the state of Missouri.
Now we have an attempt to have blacks because of, I believe it was four perceived acts of discrimination against individual blacks that somehow collectively represent discrimination against all blacks.
It's a cultural thing. It's amazing.
It's a corporate culture in American Airlines, very toxic against blacks, very clear.
It's actually part of the business plan.
So... A quota has to be discriminated against or else the pilot and the flight attendant union, they don't get the necessary bonus that's part of their salary.
That's right. It comes from the top. It's part of their employment package.
The point is, the NAACP on the heels of calling for a boycott of the state of Missouri is now calling for a boycott of American Airlines for these four...
Unbelievably flimsy episodes of perceived discrimination.
Oh yeah, like a seat reassignment and there was some like, I don't know if it's a BLM lady, some black leader somewhere, pitched a fit about it.
And so, of course, it became like a big thing the way, you know, Ann Coulter went nuts about Delta Air.
Well, Ann Coulter was right. Well, of course.
But anyways, yeah, they're taking this and they're saying, okay, well, we're recommending for all blacks...
To avoid what could be a systemic issue at American Airlines.
Of course, they're saying, we look forward to sitting down with American Airlines.
We want them to come to the table to discuss these issues we've got.
And American Airlines has said, oh, okay, okay, we'll do that.
And of course, we know exactly what this is.
Right. How big of a check can American Airlines write to subsidize the NAACP? How many more positions can...
How long until we can get to, you know, American Airlines is going to put out some white paper to say, we've got to stop the school to prison pipeline.
So we're going to start sending high schools, black students in urban America to do flight simulating.
She could have flight simulators and teach blacks how to be pilots.
So we can have more since I think less than, I think less than 1% of commercial pilots for the major airlines, Delta, American, United.
Oh, I mean, when you look at aviation and the stuff that goes on with this, you know, TSA is overwhelmingly...
We're disproportionately non-white.
On the other hand, the flight control people are overwhelmingly white.
Washington Post, I think, did a huge multi-part expose about this, about how they've lowered the standards.
Air traffic controllers. Air traffic controllers.
It's actually really shocking stuff.
I encourage our listeners to go into it.
Well, wasn't that one of the stories?
That was one of the things that Barack Obama, when he was president, wanted to try and diversify the air traffic controller.
And this was all predicated upon some of this great journalism to once again try and find areas of American life where there is a disproportionate amount of black participation, as if that somehow is emblematic of, let's see, what buzzword haven't we used yet?
I think... Can we throw an implicit bias against blacks?
We've used systemic racism, I think, a couple times.
Implicit biases. Is a term that I believe is catching on in the academic circles.
You know, is there a vocation with more job security than an academic position for a black professor who has a PhD in sociology, psychology, or African American studies at this point?
Because this discrimination study, if you look at the reaction by blacks on Twitter, it's been kind of stunning because...
They're basically saying, how dare you think you're being discriminated against white boy?
Right. How dare you?
Do you want to see real discrimination?
If they can get their stuff together to a decent degree and string a couple sentences together, they're overwhelmingly going to be pushed all the way as high as they'll go.
What publishers are...
Running over themselves. They're pushing each other out of the way to try and find the next Tinesi Coates.
Who's going to come up with these terms, the black body terms?
I was reading an article about some professor who I think he has his undergraduate from Duke.
I can't remember where his advanced degrees are from, but he's supposedly the next example of...
Of the great black academician who's going to challenge racism at every second he's awake.
Every breath he takes, every step he takes, you know, these people are going to be watching us to quote Sting and the Police.
And it's scary because...
That's a creepy song. It's scary because...
Going back to what Tainese Coates said about how he sort of has a fantasy about being in a French revolutionary standpoint.
Oh, that is weird. Going back to what we were talking about regarding this culture of hate crimes and the tease you did of the hate crime map that you're going to put out, the hate crime hoax map.
Yeah. It's important to speculate that most of these hate crime hoaxes take place near...
A university. Am I correct in that?
I think that's a safe assumption.
Now, what does that do in terms of...
Well, I guess let me ask you this, and I know a lot of our listeners are probably wondering, what is the purpose of these hate crime hoaxes?
Shake them down. Yet also to create two minutes hate, to borrow the term from Orwell's 1984, against all white people.
Because, let's face it, America is running out of white kids.
I mean, think about it. In 20 years, I mean, already K-12 public schools, whites are a minority, you know.
Another generation to, you're going to see the percentage of white enrollment in a lot of these schools drop significantly, public schools.
How are you going to be able to shake down these next generations, especially when Generation Z is so shockingly conservative?
It's problematic. It is problematic.
It is a problematic generation, and I think we need to do something to stop it.
And on that note, on the note of Generation Z and what comes after them, I think we should take a moment and we should talk about Halloween, which is coming up this next week.
This will be our final podcast before Halloween happens.
I thought maybe we could do something a little fun.
We can talk about some of the roots, some of the white roots of Halloween.
It is a very white holiday.
It very much has traditionally European roots, actually going back to Celtic harvest festivals, which may have taken place at around the same time as far back as about 4,000 years ago.
The festival of Samhain, which is spelled S-A-M-H-A-I-N, which all Danzig fans will know.
But that means summer's end, and it's a Gaelic term.
And it was a festival marking the end of the harvest season.
And the beginning of winter, and the dark part of the year, as the days start to become shorter and the nights become longer, this was the moment that kind of marked when they acknowledged the dead.
There was this idea that there was a thinning of the veil, that there was a communion between the living and the dead, which was stronger at this time than any other time.
And some of these traditions going back, you know, potentially thousands of years as far as we know.
People would, people in Ireland and Scotland and the Isle of Man would leave food and drinks and crops out to placate these spirits that they saw, they imagined were going around at this time of the year so that their livestock would survive during the winter.
Pretty cool stuff. And this is kind of the roots of where we get trick-or-treating from because people would end up dressing up as these spirits and going from door to door as the kind of manifestations of them and demanding tribute.
And so this is where trick-or-treating comes from.
So it's pretty cool thinking about something that we're still doing today has roots going back in European traditions thousands of years.
They would light candles for the souls of the dead.
There were bonfire rituals and they would take torches from the bonfires and walk around their houses with it.
Some of this goes into jack-o'-lanterns.
They would take turnips and haul them out and put candles and things in them.
These were the embodiments of these spirits and things like that.
It's very cool from just the perspective of traditional European history.
And of course, there's like a Christian contribution to this too, when they kind of mapped on to the traditions of Europe, starting around the 8th century, they would, in Ireland and those Isles, they would replace Samhain with All Saints Day.
Correct. And so All Saints Day is November 1st.
That's the day when, in the liturgical calendar, when Catholics celebrate all the saints.
And then, you know, All Saints Day Eve, All Hallows Eve, which got shortened to Halloween.
So that's where we got the name from.
And then November 2nd is for the souls of all who have gone.
So there's this idea in the Catholic liturgical calendar as well, that you're communing with The dead at this time of the year.
So Catholics would do similar practices where they would go around and they would imagine, it was something called souling, where they would imagine that the spirits of the dead are gone and then you could go into how Protestants started seeing that as not the spirits of the dead who may be in purgatory or whatever because they didn't have that concept.
But they saw them as evil spirits.
So this is a lot of where our idea of Halloween and these evil spirits going around, it's a deeply European thing, has deep roots in European religiosity.
Halloween, our listeners may be surprised, didn't really come to the Americas until the 19th century in earnest.
When the Irish and Scottish immigrants started really coming in, that's when it became a big thing.
It was here beforehand, but the Puritans rejected it, so it definitely wasn't a widespread thing until the Irish and Scots came in.
So it's a very white, very European thing, and I thought we could use that as a meditation to really consider this time of the year is a time when we think about The dead.
You know, Catholics will think about the saints.
They'll also think about the faithfully departed souls.
And, you know, the pagan Celts would think about their dead ancestors who were gone too.
I think it's a time to think about the people who came before us.
And what they pass down to us.
There's a British sci-fi film out right now and instead of having a monster or zombies or vampires, the trope is no one has any memory of who they would the day before.
Imagine living in a world such as that.
Now going back with the context of what you just said with Halloween, which the great American author Ray Bradbury considered the most The quintessential American holiday because of what it meant for community.
He wrote a book, Mr.
Wolf, called The Halloween Tree, where he talked about all of the historical combinations and the remembrances of different civilizations that culminated in what we Americans perceive as the celebration of Halloween.
A couple years ago, back in 2011 actually, I wrote a piece for Vidair Where I talked about, can your neighborhood pass the trick-or-treat test?
And to me, Halloween is that ultimate symbol of community.
I mean, Ray Bradbury in his book, and if you have children, I highly recommend you pick up The Halloween Tree.
It's a beautiful book.
Hanna-Barbera actually created a cartoon based on the book, and it's all the characters white.
Ray Bradbury wrote it back in the 1950s.
And it takes place in a Midwestern town on Halloween night.
Just this beautiful story.
I don't want to ruin anything because you really, if you have children, you should watch it with them.
Because it'll bring back, it'll evoke, hopefully, your memories of when you were trick-or-treating as a child with your parents.
And then when your parents allowed you to go out and trick-or-treat by yourself, then Mr.
Wolf, you and I are basically the same age.
Some of my fondest memories are Halloween events in public school or Halloween events around when we would have a, It's a neighborhood type of event where we would have a trick-or-treat or costume parade.
And then when my parents allowed me to go out, I'm from Waitopia, as are you, I was allowed to go out and trick-or-treat by myself.
The way that we took for granted, the way that I took for granted, looking back these memories of just going around and having not a care in the world or worry about crime, about anything happening to me or my family members or my friends because of the social capital that existed that was Axiomatic in an all-white community.
It's just something that you just don't even think about.
And now we live in a world where websites like Nextdoor and Zillow, they try to document the best places to trick-or-treat.
They try to say, oh, this is the area you've got to go.
I had a friend of mine recently called me and he goes, man, I hate it when people from a city right next to ours, a pretty black area, They bring their children to our neighborhoods to trick or treat.
And we're like, who are these kids?
Who are these kids? So they've stopped turning the lights on.
They just go out and they trick or treat themselves because they don't want to have any participation in what is such a powerful community building event like Halloween.
And as you noted, the historical, the racial roots of Halloween, of what we know as Halloween, it really has some powerful, powerful religious and You know, pagan roots.
Pagan and Christian roots. Yeah, pagan and Christian roots.
And again, there's a lot of that intertwines.
But what intertwines to Mr.
Wolfe is... It is a celebration of community.
And that's what American religion is.
It's a celebration of the community of the living and the community of those who have gone before us.
And it's a way of thinking about them.
In some European cultures, they would even set a place at the table or several places at the table for the dead.
And imagine that they were eating with him.
It was very much an ancestral holiday, thinking in these terms.
But as you say, too, it's worthy to reflect on just where America is going.
And we've been honoring these traditions Europeans have for thousands of years.
And going forward, will America continue to have a social capital where parents feel comfortable doing that?
Or will they all have to go to the local church or something on Halloween night because they can't go around their neighborhoods anymore?
And that's potentially the future.
And you see, you know, I remember growing up in my neighborhood, the biggest thing you had to worry about was some kid coming and throwing your pumpkin at the end of the night, you know, and that would happen to us pretty often.
I remember really thinking that was a weird thing because it was like that was the only ripple in the matrix, you know, is the only disturbance in the force that we experienced.
But now, you know, you hear from parents all the time, they're like, oh, there are people coming into the neighborhood to trick-or-treat who they aren't from the neighborhood.
And they'll use all these, you know, this coded language where you know exactly what they mean.
You know exactly what they mean.
And this is one of the few occasions, other than public transportation and a few things, if you don't live in a big city with a metro and you don't have to take the bus or anything, you're not going to encounter it.
But this is one of the few occasions when people living in Whitetopias are encountering diversity because these non-whites know that they can't do it in their own neighborhoods, and so they're coming in.
It's amazing to see the correlation between good schools, that white parents are so What are so desirous of finding correlates to the ability to trick or treat.
Back in 2014, when the Ferguson nightmare was going on, I was reading the St.
Louis papers religiously, and there was this amazing story of an alderman in St.
Louis named Antonio French who had come to some notoriety because he wanted to allow blacks in North St.
Louis to be able to participate in trick or treating, but St.
Louis, of course, is one of the more violent areas, and not just the United States, but the entire world.
I mean that. This is well known if you look at the crime statistics and the homicide rate.
So he would put on a little event, like you said, at a church where kids could at least come out and trick-or-treat, and the papers just gushed over him.
But if you read this, you're thinking to yourself, well...
That's just further proof of the Detroit corollary to Robert Putnam's study in diversity.
The blacker community, the less social capital exists.
That's right. It's really not about diversity as such.
It's about percent black and to a lesser extent.
I don't know if you've ever been to one of these events, by the way, at a church.
As an aside, I've been to one and it sucked.
It was terrible. It was a terrible time.
There's lights. You don't feel like you're doing the actual thing.
The experience of Halloween is going door to door.
It's going in your own neighborhood, ideally, or in the rich neighborhood with the king-size bars.
But, you know, it's not going in a church.
And so there's a question whether we can keep these traditions alive in the post-1965 America.
To further accentuate that point and to close out, it's otherworldly for your children.
I can remember vividly every year I went trick-or-treating.
I remember the last year I went trick-or-treating.
I was a freshman in high school.
I was kind of embarrassed because I was after football.
I know, I know. But I can remember the otherworldly experience that you encounter because you're going out into an environment that you're not usually allowed to traverse.
You're going out in communities where it's dark outside, where people are opening their house.
Now, some of them were silly and they were a little too much trust where they'd leave out a bowl of candy and they left the note that said, hey, just take one, please.
Of course... As we got older of trick-or-treating and that last time I trick-or-treated, we actually went out with Walkie-talkies to communicate with one another where we found these houses.
So we would do, strategically, we would, yeah.
But my point is, the amazing experiences, I still, with some of my friends, when we get together, I mean, it's amazing the friendships you create with people you grew up with from an elementary, middle, high school level.
That relationship you have, I mean, I think in that great movie, Stand By Me, they make that point.
You know, there's no friend like the ones you have when you were younger.
Yeah. Because you just, you're basically brothers, uh, For lack of a better term.
But the memories you have, and that is, to me, that's what's so disgusted is you and I get to an age where we can have children.
Can we offer, can we even exist in a country now where we can even promise our children, our potential children, something of that nature that we got to have only, you know, talking about less than 20 years ago.
And that is such a depressing thought.
And that, in turn, though, is what's fueling Trumpism.
Well, it's fueling our work, too.
And we will continue pressing on and trying to create a community that honors our ancestors, that takes the inheritance that they've given to us, and as we bequeath it to our descendants, not as a squandered inheritance, but as something that is even bigger, even more beautiful and worthwhile.
With that, Mr. Kersey, I think we'll say goodnight.
