Everyone Was White!

Time Text
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to today's edition of Radio Renaissance.
It's March 1st, and March certainly has come in like a lion.
There is snow on the ground, but I'm hoping very much that it will go out like a lamb.
I've shoveled enough for this year.
And I would like to talk about a trip I took to a very snowy part of the world.
Eastern Europe.
The Baltic States, as a matter of fact.
It was really, really a wonderful trip.
You've never been in that part of the world, have you, Brother Kersey?
I have not been in that part of the world yet.
Well, I was invited to attend the independence celebrations commemorating the 101st year of the re-establishment of Estonia and Lithuania after the First World War.
And it was really, really a wonderful experience.
I guess I should just start saying by How overwhelmingly white those two countries are.
They're very small countries, unfortunately.
They are not really, I mean, they're only about 800,000 Estonians.
They got a minority of about 400,000 Russians.
They're only about two and a half million Lithuanians, but boy, they are pure white.
Occasionally, I mean, I saw one or two non-white people the whole time I was there.
Just extraordinary.
Here you are in a big city and also with these Independent celebrations, there were thousands and thousands and thousands of people in the streets.
You look around, all white people.
It's just extraordinary.
Now, when you say independent celebration, you're talking about independence from the Soviet Union, correct?
No, well, they were, no, this is 101st celebration in 19, it was 19, 1918, at the end of the First World War.
They had been incorporated into the, into Russia.
Some time before that, and after the Russian Revolution, and after the Red Army and the White Army were fighting away, they managed to break through.
In fact, in all of those countries, they think Woodrow Wilson is wonderful, because he was preaching self-determination of peoples.
And so he really encouraged their independence.
It's funny you say that because here now we have so-called right-wingers like Glenn Beck
and all these people who are doing everything they can to tear down his image because he
is this internationalist and also he had unprogressive views on race.
At the time, of course, they were very progressive in this country.
And looking back, I think he had a lot of positive things to say about the racial experiment
in this country and where it was headed.
Well, he was the one who re-segregated the federal government.
One of his predecessors had had blacks and whites working together.
He said, this is no good.
And so he separated them.
But back to Estonia and to Lithuania.
I did not get to Latvia.
So that's the one right in between the two.
But someday I'd love to go back.
I imagine the situation is very similar.
I was invited to attend identitarian conferences in both countries, which were very successful.
Lots of very good speakers.
And then the next day, and this is really very, very moving, we had torchlight marches.
I had never been in a torchlight march before.
I'm pleased to say.
And the one that was first was in Lithuania.
It was a relatively smaller march because they're just getting going.
This is just their second year for torchlight marches.
But they must have had about 1,400 people there.
And it's really moving and inspiring to be with people, and it's old folks, young folks, men, women, and they're all just clearly in love with their country and each other.
It's very, very moving.
They're waving their flags, they're singing patriotic songs, and it's very impressive after night falls to be walking with these torches.
I had a similar experience in Estonia just one week later, and they had about 8,000 people in their torchlight march.
I tell you, it's very moving and impressive, and they're all chanting and singing.
It's really a moving experience.
You liken it to a spiritual experience.
It is spiritual.
It's almost like being in church.
And it reminds me, in 1990, when these countries, the Baltic countries, became independent of the Soviet Union.
I remember being envious of them.
I was envious because, okay, here are people who have a chance, once again, to take their destiny in their own hands.
They are able to forge a nation and really establish this wonderful homeland for their own people.
Whereas we in the United States, those of us who understand nationalism, we see our country slipping through our fingers every day.
And here are these people across that line, just small nations, but still they have a chance really to do something, do something great.
And to their credit, despite the fact that they are overwhelmingly white, just gorgeously white, and the people are gorgeous too, I might add, they realize that they have got to stop immigration before it even begins.
That's what these nationalists are all about.
That is their main concern.
And so it was really wonderful, wonderful to be there.
Now, it's not as though these countries are without problems.
Because they were under the Soviet thumb for 45 years, they're not as wealthy as the West, and so they're attracted by some of the glitz and the glitter of the Western.
It's terrible!
And you turn on the TV, and they've got BBC coming in, and CNN, and all those poisons.
The neoliberal poisons are ready to infect that nation, those nations.
Yes, they are.
It's sort of a race against time, you know.
Are they going to recognize that it's all a false dream?
All of this...
All of this wealth and shitey stuff in the West.
And of course, if you watch BBC, you think blacks and Hispanics and Muslims are just the most wonderful people on earth.
And your country is just lacking and just not gingered up with diversity the way it ought to be.
You need us.
What are you waiting for?
That's right.
Come on.
That's the message.
Come on.
Black people are all hip and cool.
Wow, isn't it fun to have all these different kind of people dancing and prancing around?
So, will they really keep to it?
And as I say, they've got some very, very solid people in those countries who realize what is at stake.
In fact, in Estonia, it was remarkable, one of the people who organized the Edenitarian conference is Ruben Kallup, who gave a talk at an American Renaissance conference a couple of years ago.
And he is running for the Estonian parliament.
He's got a great chance of being elected.
Best of luck to him.
Yes.
And he's with a mainstream political party.
They've already got representation in Parliament.
It's the Conservative People's Party.
And the one thing, their number one issue is keeping Estonia Estonian.
It's just, I say, it's just thrilling to be in a country where people know what is at stake.
They're politically organized to keep their countries the way it is.
And it's this party that organizes these torchlight parades.
And the head of the party, I couldn't understand his speech, but before you get on, he gets up and he talks and the crowd is roaring and singing the national anthem.
Oh, it brings tears to your eyes.
It's really an expression of patriotism and love and nationalism.
Boy, they really are a kind of beacon of hope and sanity.
Whereas in our country, while you were gone, Peggy Noonan, right in the Wall Street Journal, said the only thing conservatives have to stand for and preserve is the free market.
So that's what you missed.
You missed nationalism and conservatism in this country, distilled down by Peggy Noonan, who of course is holding aloft the torts that she got from Ronald Reagan, wrote in the Wall Street Journal, like I said, all we have to conserve is the free market and we've done our job.
Whereas you're talking about true Conservation.
Of nationalism.
Of a people.
Of the roots.
That's right.
Of a homeland.
Of a destiny.
They really understand.
Now, it's not as though everyone in those countries does.
In Estonia, where I've just said they've had eight years of these torchlight parades.
We are filing by, we're marching through this, oh, I should also mention this, we're marching through the Old Town, which is just as quaint and as cute, and it's right out of a fairy tale, these old towns, just charming as could be.
You could spend days as a tourist, but we did go by about half a dozen protesters.
And they look just as goofy and maladjusted as protesters here in the United States.
And I couldn't read their signs, but there was one sign that did have the word, you could say it was racismus.
And so I'm assuming that there are idiots, even in a healthy place like Estonia, who think that for Estonia to remain Estonian is racist.
Yes.
But I must say, when the march approached them, the chanting just got that much louder.
People are waving their torches at them.
No, it was really just great.
Also, interestingly enough, when we went by the Russian embassy, the chanting got a whole lot louder, too, and people are waving their torches at them because these people had a very bad experience with Soviet communism.
And you know, in both Estonia and in Lithuania, and also in Poland when I was there before, they have museums of occupation.
And I was going through these there in Estonia and in Lithuania in the former KGB headquarters.
And they have these very impressive displays of just how bad it was under the Soviets.
How many people got killed and deported and everything else.
And I'm thinking to myself, you know, someday we're going to have museums.
We actually already do have open-air museums in our country of the occupation.
You can drive 60 miles from where you are.
Yes.
and go to Baltimore and see empty row houses boarded up.
Those are the symbols of an occupation that dares not speak its name.
Well, yes they are.
But someday, we're going to have to have places where we can take school children and explain to them just how bad things were under this obscurantist, anti-white regime that we live under.
I really kept thinking, well, what would make a good exhibit?
But no, I had a great trip.
Eastern Europe is just so inspiring in that respect.
But as I say, it's not completely solid.
There are people who really want to lick Angela Merkel's boots because she's got the money and they don't.
The European Union is handing out all of this swag to these guys who think that part of modernity is being multi-culti.
So it's not as though they're completely safe, but I think at least in the Baltic States, Poland, and Hungary, of course, things are fairly solid.
And so there's always going to be something, something that we can look towards.
I hope my grandchildren will not have to learn Hungarian in order to live in a healthy society, but it may come to that.
But not anytime soon.
We're going to stay here and fight.
But the next item, of course, has to do with the unannounced policy change at Amazon.
It is really very disturbing what they've started.
Without any kind of warning at all, they have started pulling titles from their website.
They'd never done this.
They'd always done this in a very, very limited way.
It was a very ad hoc way.
We should bring up a couple people who have had this happen to them before we get started.
Look at Vox Dei.
Vox Dei's Castelia House had a number of titles pulled and they were alerted to what happened.
It turned out that it was a rogue employee who had taken down a lot of their titles from the Self-publishing Kindle side of the equation.
And also we have to bring up Roosh.
The gentleman who used to run Return of the Kings, a fantastic men's rights site.
He had nine titles pulled down.
Some self-help books.
Really good books.
I actually like a lot of what Roosh writes and I like where he's taken.
I don't know if you follow him, but he's taken a dramatic turn, and I think it's a very wise and noble turn, but he also was the beneficiary of the acts, the digital acts.
The beneficiary, the target, the victim of the digital acts.
Yes, there have been occasional bannings in the past, but I think this is a real considerable departure because what they've done, clearly, is target racial nationalist books.
Four of mine, my most recent book, If We Do Nothing, and one that Amazon's been selling since 2011.
Without any objections apparently up until then, White Identity.
And White Identity is the mildest of books.
I wrote that with the expectation and the hope of actually getting a mainstream publisher to take it.
And I had two literary agents back-to-back who spent a year for one and a year and a half thinking that they could make a whole lot of money selling what was going to be a really controversial and best-selling book to some mainstream house.
So there's really nothing provocative in White Identity.
Did you always want to title it?
No, I wasn't going to title it that.
It was after I decided I had to sell it under the New Century Foundation brand that I ended up with that title.
But it's really more about how multi-racialism doesn't work.
It could have had a more academic sounding title.
And if that were the case, it might have survived.
But as you know... Well, why don't you talk about the background of what appears to have promoted, prompted, this sudden banning of these.
Yeah, there was a story that appeared on a website, qz.com.
Yeah, Quartz is actually the name of the website.
Yeah, you can find it at qz.com, and it basically said that, oh, there's some neo-Nazi white supremacist books, and it targeted yours, and it targeted George Lincoln Wockwell books from the past.
I believe it also targeted The White Nationalist Manifesto by Greg Johnson.
That's right.
Mentioned them by name.
Mentioned them by name.
And then less than six days later, gone.
Just like that.
In a blink of an eye, a switch was made there at Amazon's headquarters.
Who knows where it was?
And the cloud, they're gone.
They're removed.
And Greg Johnson had not just one title removed at first, He then had a number of titles removed.
He's lost four of his own.
He's lost four of his own.
Writing under the pseudonym Trevor Lynch, he had a couple of titles removed.
F. Roger Devlin, a fantastic writer, had his book, Sexual Utopian Power.
Again, you look at that title, what could have been the animus for removing this, except for its connection to Countercurrents Publishing?
Well, it's really a first-rate book.
And Devlin Devlin is a very smart guy.
He spends his time reviewing other people's books.
I wish he'd write more of his own.
It's really, as I agree, it's a first-rate book.
It gets him invited to identitarian conferences and other places all around the world, frankly.
And for this, I was just shocked when that disappeared.
But then, of course, Colin Flaherty, Don't Make the Black Kids Angry.
There's nothing outrageous about that book.
And that's a quote from the Kansas City mayor when there was a lot of pushback against some of these Some of these knockout game attacks in Kansas City.
And the black mayor said, listen, don't make the black kids angry.
How about that?
It's like, wait a second, what?
And he used that, created a brand, created a title, and it sold quite well.
This is a guy going back to talk about just the whole digital censorship that's going on.
Think about what's happening with you with Twitter, this lawsuit you still have going on.
From what I understand, Colin Flaherty has mentioned this because I subscribe to his newsletter.
He's had seven different YouTube channels because they kept having mass bannings.
He's had tens of millions of views on these provocative videos that showcase that these incidences aren't isolated.
They're happening all across the country, as is, at the same time, the denial by the news media.
That's right.
And he's done a tremendous, tremendous job.
You know, all he does, all he does is recount facts.
Yes.
He says, this is what's happening.
The media doesn't tell you about it.
X happens.
The media says, why?
It's basically nothing more than that.
He doesn't call for white homelands.
He doesn't call for peaceful separation.
He doesn't talk about race and IQ, just the facts of race and crime.
Yes, and it's funny, there's a new book that just came out called Hate Crime Hoaxes, Mr. Taylor, and in that book by Wilford Riley, he's a black man that you debated actually, he mentions in a very important passage that an adversary of yours Tim Wise and you both come to about the same conclusion on black-on-white crime.
He says 82% of the time of interracial crime it's black-on-white.
You say it's about 84%.
So plus or minus 2% is where you guys are and it's fascinating to think that at this time when we have this digital censorship going on.
A couple other people that got the axe.
Tommy Robinson who we'll talk about at length here in a second.
His book, Muhammad's Quran, Why Muslims Kill for Islam, which he wrote with a guy named Peter McLaughlin, who, that gentleman, has written the absolute best book out there on the Muslim grooming gangs.
It's called Easy Meat.
It's a must-read book.
If you guys are listening, guys, girls, go to Amazon, search all these titles.
I encourage you to buy as many of these titles as you can.
If you can find any Jared Taylor book on Amazon, if you can find any Colin Flaherty book on Amazon, buy them.
Support these authors right now and send a message that we will not go quietly in the night.
That's just the point.
You can't buy Jared Taylor.
The only books of mine that you can buy.
There's this ancient book about Japan.
I didn't want to tell anyone what those books were.
I wanted people to go to Amazon and find them themselves.
Let's not encourage more censorship.
But again, I think they've licked me over pretty carefully.
I think they're going to let my book on Japan survive.
And my very first book on race relations, which is sort of a neocon book, really.
But in any case, who knows?
I mean, this could be the beginning.
As I say, White Identity was up for eight years.
Eight years without any trouble at all.
A Race Against Time was published in 2006?
It wasn't on Kindle.
It wasn't on Amazon.
It's probably been about the same time.
There are other books.
I don't know what they're like, but here's one called A History of Central Banking and the Enslavement of Mankind.
Sounds like a goofball book a little bit.
And also, here's one called, Inside the South African Reserve Bank, Its Origins and Secrets Exposed.
Why are these banned?
I mean, maybe they're a little bit eccentric.
I don't know.
I don't know what's in them at all.
The title sounds as though they can go anywhere.
But they're banned, too.
It's just an astonishing state of affairs here.
And what is extraordinary is that Amazon, up until now, had, well, I guess it was in 2011, they were under real pressure to ban a book that was basically a pederast predator's guide.
How to seduce little boys.
And their initial position was, look, we may think a book is horrible, but if we start disagreeing with books, we're saying not going to publish books we disagree with, that's censorship.
Correct.
But a few days later, they did ban that book.
But I wish they had really stuck to their guns.
But that's the way all these tech companies used to be.
You know, Twitter claiming we are the free speech wing of the free speech movement.
Boy, have they all turned around and crumpled.
It really is simple.
It's before Trump and after Trump.
As much as we, you know, Trump has accelerated things.
And you can say other events have.
I really think it is because, as we've seen from some of these Conversations like James Damore remember that James Damore you can say Charlottesville all you want to James Damore predates Charlottesville by about two months and he came out and said this is all about to happen.
This is what they're talking about.
These are the conversations they're having.
The left tech community was flabbergasted by what happened with Trump.
They really were.
We've seen that.
Yes, they were flabbergasted.
But I think it was really Charlottesville that turned the entire tech.
I mean, all of those deplatformings accelerated.
They went from 10 miles per hour to 60 miles per hour.
In no time at all.
I'd actually say 600 miles per hour.
I'm talking about automobiles.
But who knows.
In any case, there has been a steady march to the left by all of Silicon Valley.
And once you give them an inch, they take a mile.
I guarantee you that within a year you'll see titles like Jim Goads, Whiteness, The Original Sin.
You'll see, I think you'll even see calls for Ann Coulter's books to be taken down.
That is where I think we're headed.
In one of these articles, well the article in Quartz or QZ.com, it was based on some report by some outfit with a long funny name and they'd really looked into this carefully.
But this got of course the worshipful treatment in the Washington Post and this QZ.
But one of the books that they say has got to go is Philippe Rushton's Race, Evolution, and Behavior.
That is a purely scientific book.
And that is a book, I think, that would have gotten the Nobel Prize in a sane world.
They're calling for that to go.
Charles Darwin's book will have to go.
Of course.
Everything that Charles Murray's written about race, we publish a book.
Still, buy it while you can, ladies and gentlemen.
It's Michael Levin's great book on why race matters.
A tremendous book.
Yes.
Very, very closely and extensively argued.
I don't see any reason why they won't start kicking that stuff Obviously, we don't want to give too many names of other books that should be removed by authors, but I really do believe you'll see, once you give an inch, as I stated, they will take a mile.
The left smells blood.
It's chum in the water.
These titles, again, it started with Roosh.
They went for Vox Dei, who does a lot of good stuff.
Now they've come for it once again.
Well, I understand in Vox Dei's case, there was some sort of disagreement about copyright.
They said somehow he didn't have the right to publish that stuff, so it was not necessarily a content question.
But there's no, there's no doubt that in the case of Roosh, they were saying that, uh, he, uh, these pickup artist tips basically are encouraging rape.
Uh, I've never read the books.
I don't know what, uh, but everybody is so sensitive about that kind of thing anyway.
But yes, they were moving in a bad direction, but now they've just, uh, they've just, uh, all the floodgates are open now.
But what really annoys me is that unlike in the case of Twitter or Facebook, they haven't made an announcement at all.
They just quietly done this.
And nobody seems to notice except the people who are the publishers.
They don't have to be held accountable to anyone.
No.
They are the establishment.
They don't have to give answers to peons.
I would like to think, I would like to think, but I'm such a naive, that there are even a few liberals who are worried about book burning.
You know, when we hear about how the Nazis were bad, bad, bad, bad, book burning is one of the first things that pops up.
And you see that little black and white picture of a pile of books in the city square, these Nazi uniformed guys heaving them on.
We're supposed to think that's just the worst thing that ever happened.
Well, there's a powerful scene in Indiana Jones The Last Crusade when Indiana Jones is in Berlin for a book burning and one of his... I guess she's the heroine of the story.
She's a German and she's crying.
She's part of the Nazi regime, but she's crying because she watches this book burning.
And, you know, again, liberals want this.
Liberals want power.
They don't care anymore.
There are maybe one out of one One million liberals would say, oh yeah, maybe we should have fair hearing.
They don't want to have fair hearing.
Because as we've seen… But whatever happened to freedom of speech?
You know, the only liberal I have heard of who has said, who's come out with a pretty strong position is Nadine Strossen of the ACLU.
Yeah.
But other than her?
And these so-called conservatives.
They won't speak up.
No, they'd rather invite Van Jones to CPAC, which we'll talk about.
You can tell about that.
But, you know, we really need to move along.
We've jabbered too much about Europe and because I was so inspired by Europe.
And this book burning really is a terrifying thing, too.
But they're trying to burn John Wayne.
Tell us about that.
Well, this story was one that really motivated me because I've been to this airport.
I've flown into John Wayne Airport.
He has this wonderful statue of John Wayne.
When he passed away in 1979, Orange County was about 80% white, Mr. Taylor.
And within days of his death, the city council there, they decide, and the airport commission, we got to rechange the name of this airport to honor John Wayne.
This guy embodies everything that is America.
We've got to honor him by putting his name on John Wayne airport.
Well, flash forward a couple years ago.
Remember when, I think we actually talked about this in this podcast.
In 2016, a naive Republican in the California State House wanted to commemorate John Wayne Day.
And a Democrat member of a Hispanic said, no, no, no, no, no.
Look at this Playboy interview.
John Wayne was a white supremacist.
He actually says that in this interview.
Even though John Wayne married three Hispanic women, he was a white supremacist.
He was a racist.
We can't honor him.
So, in 2016, they voted it down.
Now, we go to less than a month ago, this one blogger, this one guy on Twitter, he's a screenwriter, I think he has one credit to his name on Netflix, again, named Matt Williams.
He happens to rediscover the interview.
He tweets about how, quote, Jesus fuck, John Wayne was a straight up piece of shit, unquote.
And this becomes the catalyst.
For John Wayne hate.
It was retweeted, Mr. Taylor, 10,000 times, liked more than 31,000 times, to the point that John Wayne was actually trending on Twitter.
It was a Twitter moment to showcase that he was a racist.
It was two minutes hate against the Goldberg of our era, John Wayne.
Well, you know what astonishes me?
I guess I am an old-fashioned fuddy-duddy, but this kind of language gets retweeted 10,000 times and liked 31,000 times.
Oh boy.
The anti-white mindset is powerful.
But it is so vulgar.
I guess that's the way... You find it vulgar?
The left finds John Wayne and everything that he stood for, everything that you stand for, they find that far more vulgar than just expletives.
But what kind of expression is, Jesus fuck?
I mean, I don't think I've ever heard that before, actually.
That's their rallying cry.
How dare a white man of the past Well, I'm just sort of reeling at the anti-Christian aspect of this, too.
But anyway, that's a parenthesis that just expresses my own scruples about this kind of language.
Here's what John Wayne said in that Playboy interview.
He said, Let me go back quote John Wayne said quote I believe in white supremacy until the blacks are educated to a point of responsibility I don't believe in giving authority and positions of leadership and judgment to irresponsible people
Well, you know, that is not at all dissimilar to what William F. Buckley wrote about apartheid South Africa.
Exactly what he wrote!
Yes, he said, look, they aren't where they need to be.
Richard Nixon was saying that in tapes that he had with Billy Graham, who just passed away.
Well, and the point is, he's not, John Wayne is not saying these are a permanent underclass.
He's saying, look, they're just not quite at the point where they can really run the show, or run their own show.
But, okay, continue with these other things.
Okay, he also said, quote, our so-called stealing of this country from them, Indians, was just a matter of survival.
There were great numbers of people who needed new land, and the Indians were selfishly trying to keep it for themselves.
Quote, I will say this though, I think any black who can compete with the white today can get a better break than a white man.
I wish they'd tell me where in the world they have it better than right here in America.
Unquote.
How can you even argue this?
Think about how in our country, after the Exploits of what was immortalized in the book and the movie Blackhawk Down, we now have more than 2% of the Somali population is resettled, largely in Minnesota and in Maine and in Atlanta.
And you wonder, how can they stand it in such a racist, white supremacist country?
They're even elected to public office so they can blast white people.
Yes, yes.
Oh, the horror of it.
The horror of it.
But also, apparently he used an anti-gay slur when talking about movies Easy Rider and Midnight Cowboy.
Now, I didn't see in print just what it was.
Do you happen to know what slur it was?
I imagine it begins with an F and ends with a T. I'm not even sure if he used that word.
I don't really recall that because that wasn't what was primarily the...
Reason behind Matt Williams tweet.
Basically, it was just this was done because it enabled a I don't wanna say a grassroots movement, Mr. Taylor, but it enabled the Twitter warriors, the SJWs, to then lead to a actual editorial.
Now, Paul Kersey actually wrote about this right after this happened, said, hey, it's only a matter of time until this name is removed.
Orange County is, I wanna say, Less than 40% white at this point?
It's certainly, whites are certainly a minority.
Yeah, so whites have gone from 80% of the county to about 40% today.
It's only a matter of time before this county, which just elected five Democrats to serve in the House of Representatives for the first time in I know, it used to be a Republican stronghold.
There are actually books written about how the John Birch Society was its strongest in this county.
John Wayne was a member of the John Birch Society.
That's all gone.
That's all been washed away by diversity.
So, Paul Kersey, he wrote about how, hey, it's only a matter of time until they push for the name change.
Well, guess what?
Less than a week later, the Los Angeles Times editorializes Hey, it's time to get rid of this guy.
It's time to change John Wayne Airport.
Well, they want to take down his statue.
He's as bad as Stonewall Jackson or Robert E. Lee, apparently.
So they want to take down the statue.
We'll see what happens.
We'll see what happens.
I give it less than five years and the state steps in.
When the state legislature steps in, when Gavin Newsom, the governor, they have complete power.
They have absolute autonomy over the state.
Because there's just no opposition.
The minority opposition has no voice, and that's Republicans, that's whites in the state of California.
Yes, and something else is being abolished.
And this is a very valuable thing.
This is the gangster database in Chicago's Cook County.
The county governing board voted on Thursday completely to dismantle their database of more than 25,000 known or suspected gang members.
Now, I don't have to tell you why.
And I suspect I don't have to tell any of our listeners why either.
It's because the database is said to be racist!
According to its opponents, most of the people linked to gangs are black and Hispanic.
And of course, most of the people killed in Chicago are young blacks shot by each other who all have gang affiliations.
But according to the Cook County Commissioner Alma Anaya, who was the chief sponsor, now I don't know where she's from and just what her pigmentation is, but I can guess.
She says The terms gang association or gang membership have become a form of criminalizing mostly young people of color and so we can't even have a gang database anymore.
You know, Chicago is a city that the public school system is I think 98% Non-white.
98% non-white.
And we're talking about a city.
We're going to talk a little bit more here in a second about what just happened in the mayoral election.
But think about it this way.
You've got a database that the Cook County that this actually helps solve a lot of crimes and helps prevent a lot of crimes if you have a database like this.
Think about what's going on across the pond in London and now majority-minority London where they have a Scotland Yard has a gang database matrix that is being attacked because, hold on a second, Even in a city, you know, because Chicago's 33% white, about 32% black, and it's now majority Hispanic, actually, believe it or not.
Well, not majority, but Hispanics are the largest number.
It's a plurality of Hispanics are the largest number, correct.
But in London, a city that is still about 48% white, the gang database matrix there is, I think it's like 80% black.
And if you were to do a Google search, I'm sure you could find out that across the Western world, all of these gang databases that enable police to work together to try and solve crimes, to find out what's going on, they are being attacked because fundamentally, they are inherently racist.
Well, they are accurate reflections of what's going on.
Pattern recognition.
Yes, yes.
And in fact, the Cook County Regional Gang Intelligence Database, it's called RIDGID, It is actually quite accurate because it collects information from inmates in the Cook County Jail, and this is very interesting, who they ask them when they come in, look, are there certain people that we can't put you in cells with?
Because you put one gang and your crips in with the bloods and they'll kill each other.
Yes.
And so they say, yeah, I'm a crip, man.
I don't want to mix with them bloods.
And so they have a very clear indication of who's in and who's not.
So it's very accurate.
And it means that they can track these people and see what's going on and look for patterns.
But this is clearly, as you pointed out, like it would be anywhere in the world.
This is racist because it reflects reality.
And reality is racist.
An earlier draft of this ordinance would have required the Sheriff's Office to send written notifications to people who got put on the list.
This is a crazy thing, too, but the reason they didn't want to do that is because they thought they might get lawsuits!
This is crazy stuff, but now the vote will prohibit the Sheriff's Office from maintaining, recreating, or sharing this information, and the Sheriff's Office must, quote, enact the final destruction of the list.
I mean, what kind of world are we living in?
Law and order is, at its heart, the most important aspect of a civilized society.
And what we have here is the beginnings of the dismantling of civilization as we know it.
That sounds like I'm speaking in hyperbole, but it's not, guys.
We're going to talk about the Chicago mayoral election here in just a second.
We need to talk about one more thing.
We call this a tease, but you have to understand, if you want an accurate blueprint of the future, go to Amazon right now, buy a copy of Michelle Alexander's book, The New Jim Crow, and read it.
Realize we are going to see everything that she recommends implemented.
District Attorney after DA after DA after DA across the country is being elected.
With the promise of implementing everything that Michelle Alexander wrote because the judicial system in America is systemic racism and implicit bias to the nth degree.
And of course, one of the specifics that we've talked about several times on this podcast is decriminalization of turnstile hopping.
That's just such a concrete example.
And okay, if you're young and you're black, well, you just can't help it.
So we can't make this a crime.
So, yes, the gang database is going to be abolished, and so the police are going to be that much more handicapped in trying to track these trends.
And what's the actual on-the-ground consequence?
More black people and more Hispanics are going to be killing each other.
But that doesn't matter, apparently.
What matters is, as this Commissioner Anaya says, getting rid of this term gang association and gang membership because it stigmatizes.
Yes.
That's more important than keeping people alive.
Exactly.
And fundamentally, that's the paradox of all this.
By dismantling something that white people, that police, that the thin blue line have tried to create to help out largely communities of color, that is in itself racist.
So it's got to go.
And so like you said, the morgues in Chicago, I mean, I don't know if you know this about Chicago but in Cook County at at funerals they actually have to have police because gangs will show up and they'll be more violent at funerals.
I mean it is it's hard to believe that in a city as you see the you see the skyline of Chicago there's massive new hundred-story buildings going up and at the same time down beneath this metropolis Well, it's a little further to the south.
It is.
That's true.
Not in the loop.
Once again, there are patterns here.
They're not only racial, but geographic patterns.
Spatial segregation, I believe is what our friends call it.
Well, speaking of removed, going back to Tommy Robinson.
So there's a gentleman by the name of Mohamed Shafik.
He's a chief executive of the Rahamadan Foundation over there in England.
And he said recently, Mr. Taylor, he held meetings with Facebook representatives in London to discuss the concern the British Muslim community has about Robinson's presence on social media.
He went to Twitter and said this.
He admitted that he had had meetings.
Facebook, wasn't it?
It was with Facebook.
Well, guess what happens a couple days after these meetings?
Well, Robinson becomes a non-person.
He was permanently banned from both Facebook and its subsidiary that Facebook owns, Instagram, for repeatedly violating the tech giant's Hate speech.
Hate speech policies.
Apparently he broke the rules that ban public calls for violence against protected classes of people, rules that ban appearing with or supporting hate groups.
Of course, this again goes to their view where it doesn't matter what you write on our site, it matters what you do in the public sphere, which I think also applies to Twitter as well.
That's right.
Twitter could ban you if they don't like what you do in your private life.
Even if you just put nothing but hymns and psalms on your Twitter feed.
So here's what Facebook said.
When ideas and opinions cross the line and amount to hate speech that may create an environment of intimidation and exclusion for certain groups in society, in some cases with potentially dangerous Offline Implications, We Take Actions."
Well, you know, apparently one of Robinson's posts called Muslims filthy scumbags, and apparently he had participated in events with the Proud Boys and Generation Identity.
Apparently, that alone is enough for Facebook to kick you off, because they think those are hate groups.
The last thing you can call them is hate groups.
But this stuff about calling for violence.
Now, I didn't see, when I was looking up this story, any specific quotes about that.
Do you know any details about that?
No.
He had just been a character He had just been portrayed in a BBC documentary.
He had held a big rally.
There had been a lot of positive things going on.
Say what you will, I know that some people in America don't like Tommy Robinson.
I think he does great work.
He's doing everything he can to try and raise awareness of what's happening.
Unfortunately, as Enoch Powell prophesied, the colored man does hold the whip over the white man in
England.
And as we see with Mohammed Shafiq, who simply said this, quote,
Tommy Robinson has spent years directing hatred toward Muslims,
targeting innocent Muslims with his inflammatory speeches and videos on social media,
end quote.
Just this meeting enabled Facebook, enabled these other tech platforms to remove Tommy's
presence.
And then not a day after your book was digitally burned, Tommy Robinson has his book that he wrote with a guy named
Peter McLaughlin.
The book is called Muhammad's Quran, Why Muslims Kill for Islam.
It was published in 2017.
Like you, they tried to get it published by a number of major houses.
They couldn't.
They couldn't find anyone who would publish it, so CreateSpace did.
I think it sold quite well, but you know what?
It had to go.
For the time being, YouTube is the only place that Tommy Robinson has a presence.
I believe this is the same thing for a guy like Gavin McGinnis.
And for how much longer?
And for how much longer?
YouTube is certainly no stalwart in the fight for free speech.
You know, the whole question of why Muslims kill for Islam, that's a worthy subject of investigation.
I think certainly people in Britain, certainly people all around the world, certainly in Europe where they have high Muslim populations, This is a legitimate question.
It's been a legitimate question for almost 1400 years, Mr. Taylor.
The West has long been having to deal with this question.
I mean, goodness gracious.
Think about what's happening on May 28th, 2019.
That is the...
We're getting close to the 600th anniversary of the fall of Constantinople, and that's something that the Muslims had fought centuries to take since the founding of the religion.
For about a thousand years, let's say if you take it from 732 when they marched all the way up into France and Charles the Hammer had to fight them back.
To 1683, that was the last time.
They were right in Vienna, for heaven's sake.
1683, that tremendous battle before the gates of Vienna, in which the Pole, Jan Sobieski, he rode to the defense of the West.
By the way, Jan Sobieski is still a hero in Poland.
Yes, he is.
If he were American, we'd say, oh no, he was bad.
Bad.
His statues would be coming down.
They'd be coming down, but the Poles still appreciate him, thank goodness.
No, they have been the enemy, the most dangerous and mortal enemy of Europe for more than a thousand years.
And no, but now we can't even...
Well, now they dictate social policy in the former Great Britain.
Well, speaking of dictating social policy, this is a story that I think is funny.
CPAC is going on right now in Washington, D.C.
I understand you weren't invited this year again?
Somehow they overlooked me.
Ann Coulter and I just didn't get an invitation.
So you have a situation in this country where Trumpism has now been distilled down to just the defense of free markets and the first step act which is his signature piece of legislation that his son-in-law Jared Kushner helped push through this bipartisan legislation which basically opens the jail cells to drug dealers to largely Africans in America to get out of jail.
And guess who is at CPAC?
Not Tucker Carlson.
Not Ann Coulter.
Not Chris Kobosh.
Not Not even Laura Ingraham.
I'm talking about Van Jones of CNN, a guy who on the very night that Donald Trump was elected president, he called it a white lash.
He said this, Mr. Taylor, quote, it's hard to be a parent tonight for a lot of us.
You tell your kids, don't be a bully.
You tell your kids, don't be a bigot.
You tell your kids, Hey, do your homework and be prepared.
And then you have this outcome and you have people putting children to bed tonight.
And they're afraid of breakfast.
They're afraid of, How do I explain this to my children?
That's what Van Jones said on November 9th, 2016.
And guess what he was doing on February 28th, 2019?
He was speaking at CPAC, an event put on by the American Conservative Union.
These goofy non-profits all congregate outside of Washington, D.C.
And guess what?
A lot of the main funders of this event, Mr. Taylor, are Google, are Facebook, Or Twitter.
They're these tech tyrants who are happy to have this distilled conservatism, this watered-down idea that all that matters are free markets.
That's all you guys can talk about.
And, as Gregory Hood would so venomously say, tax cuts for our enemies so they can de-platform us legally.
Well, Van Jones, Mr. Taylor, actually was invited to speak on a panel at CPAC yesterday about Criminal Justice Reform, all inspired by the prophet of our age, Michelle Alexander, who I must say one more time, dear listener, read this book if you want to know the future, because this is what even CPAC
Dave, bot, hook, line, and sinker.
Oh, no.
CPAC is really an increasingly worthless organization.
There was a time when somebody like Peter Brimelow would speak at CPAC.
It caused a bit of a stink, but it actually happened.
There was a time, believe it or not, the Council of Conservative Citizens had a booth at CPAC with a Confederate flag handing out solid literature.
Oh, times have changed.
Well, you know what you do now at CPAC?
You can get a picture taken with a cardboard cutout of Charlie Kirk of Turning Point USA.
I bet you can.
Who, of course, is leading the whole concept of Blexit.
And this is going against the grain that the left now, all they care about is A race to reparations, which I'm sure will be a future topic for us.
But again, Van Jones, he had a panel discussion, a conversation with criminal justice reform with Van Jones and Matt Schlapp.
And it was moderated by someone affiliated with the Daily Caller.
I understand that, you know, basically he was saying, you conservatives are leading the push for criminal justice reform.
Now, I did read that he was booed when he brought up that illegal immigrants have a lower crime rate than And Americans, which, it's like, well, wait a second, they're illegal.
Come on, dude.
They shouldn't even be in this country to begin with.
Why are we, and compared to who?
Can we compare them to... You know, I'm not surprised that he was booed.
The fact is, people who have some sense of the United States have nowhere else to go.
The audience, the audience at CPAC is much more solid than the people who are actually speaking.
And in a way, it's astonishing to invite this Van Jones who said these just gruesomely insulting things about Donald Trump.
They invited Donald Trump to speak.
You'd think they'd have a little bit of a consistency here.
Donald Trump, Mike Pence, as if they are really going to save the country.
But in any case, having this guy is just such a slap in the face to their real headline speaker.
But, no, the people at CPAC, I've actually attended a time or two.
I've never been asked to speak, obviously.
But when you talk to the folks who are in the audience, it's very clear they're really hungering for something real.
And they're hoping they get something other than this pabulum.
These are people, a lot of them, would be happy to be at an American Renaissance conference.
Well, it's funny you said that.
You and I both soured on MAGA and on Donald Trump, but what motivated people to go to the polls and vote, it was that.
They finally saw something that they thought was, wait a second.
This isn't John Kasich.
This isn't Jeb Bush.
This is Marco Rubio.
What is happening here?
And that's why it's been so disappointing to see The MAGA movement demolished by the enemies who've been invited into the camp and those who were so stalwart.
I was looking.
At the guest list, the speakers list at CPAC.
And it's just bristling with blacks.
There used to be that joke, you know, what do you call the only black person at a conservative meeting?
You know, the answer, the keynote speaker.
Well, this time they've got speaker after speaker after speakers, but I didn't recognize most of them.
I don't know what they're up to, but boy, they are going full scale affirmative action at CPAC.
So, yes, as Van Jones says, They're afraid of, how do I explain this to my children about the election of Donald Trump?
I'm thinking, how do I explain CPAC to my children?
But time marches on.
Now, there is a very interesting story about out of Israel.
And that's a fact that, you know, there used to be these the halakha that is law based on the Talmud, which is how Jews determined who is a Jew.
And the most basic aspect of this is whether or not you were born of a Jewish woman.
But then how do you determine whether the Jewish woman is a Jew?
And so there are all kind of complicated ways to figure it out.
Well, instead, what they have done They've started DNA testing.
Pretty straightforward, because DNA can tell you, well, is this person Jewish or not?
And some 5,000 immigrants have been asked to prove their Jewishness in recent years.
Makes sense to me.
And the other thing is they've done almost 20 couples in the past year with at least one spouse from the former Soviet Union were asked to carry out a DNA test to prove that they were Jewish if they wanted to register their marriages as Jewish marriages in Israel.
Makes sense to me.
But, interestingly enough, and it's mostly the Orthodox who are doing this.
Orthodox Jews.
They are, you know, you think of them as these sort of benighted, ancient throwbacks to the shtetl in Poland.
They're the ones who believe in DNA.
And it's these modern ones.
Here's a guy, the former defense minister, Minister Avigdor Lieberman.
He said, this is an outrageous discrimination and racist.
Come on, Avigdor.
This is science.
I just think it was very interesting that Jews who are concerned about who is Jewish, keeping their Jewish state Jewish, are just doing straight DNA testing.
Very sensible.
Hats off to them.
Someday, someday, we may be in a position to do the same.
Speaking of book banning, I'm sure it won't be long until some of Michael Hart's fantastic books also are removed.
Oh, that's right.
So again, that's another name, dear listener.
Go to Amazon.
Type in Michael Hart, and I recommend getting some of his books.
I mean, we are at a point... Get them while they last.
Support this.
I mean, send a message, because it won't be too long until you see the calls for Tucker, for Anne, for Anne Coulter's books to be removed.
You see, hey, it won't be too long until the only thing you have left are Ben Shapiro and Glenn Beck.
And that's the only so-called conservative book, because that is the Anointed opposition.
Yep, yep.
Let's finish off on a high note.
Well, the high note being here a question from a reader.
I thought it was quite interesting.
This person writes a question from a listener.
I beg your pardon.
I guess you saw last week that the reparations bomb got dropped by Harris and Warren.
There's already talk of expanding it to Indians and Hispanics and God only knows who else.
And he goes on to say, now that the campaign is kicking off with no shortage of anti-white policies and rhetoric, how can we most effectively leverage this in order to wake up as many white people as possible who are still sitting on the fence?
Well, the fact is, we don't have to leverage it much at all.
Let them rant as much as they like.
I think, you know, as I have often said to people, reality is the most powerful red pill there is.
Now, it is true that we can point out some of the craziness of this.
The whole idea of reparations.
You know, say, if your great-granddaddy killed my great-granddaddy, I'd have no claim on you.
No, none whatsoever.
But these people are saying, if your great-granddaddy enslaved my great-granddaddy, which seems to me not as bad as having killed him, then I do have a claim on you.
Well, what the heck's going on?
There's no theory of justice that permits this.
And then, as this guy points out, we're going to expand this whole thing.
Probably Asians, too.
Everybody who's non-white.
Because we have white privilege.
A couple years ago we talked about the piece that Tunisi Coates wrote for, I believe, The Atlantic, the cover story, Case for Reparations, and how this motivated a lot of people to start thinking that, hey, this is being rapidly sped up.
There's some reason why.
How is this now How is this becoming symbiotic with the Democrat Party?
This idea, this is how we're going to keep things.
Because as we see increasingly across the country, African-American women are becoming a big force.
Now, we didn't get to talk about what happened in Chicago.
It's something that I think you should actually write about for AR.
And if you don't, I will.
Because it's a great story.
Because Chicago is undergoing such a dramatic racial transformation.
Blacks are leaving.
And dramatic numbers.
They're heading back south.
It's a reverse Great Migration.
And largely they're headed to metro Atlanta.
This is something that is going to be important to watch in the next five, six years.
Which is a curious background to the fact that the next mayor for sure is going to be a black woman and could very well be a black woman lesbian.
Because after this jungle primary of 14 candidates, the two remaining standing are both black women.
Both very light-skinned black women, actually, if you take a look at them.
Well, there were actually six white men in this jungle primary.
But anyway, it really is an interesting story.
I wish we'd had more time to get into it.
It's an interesting story, but the point is we're seeing more and more black women becoming the... Again, think about it.
Think about who are the faces of the Democratic Party.
On the latest cover, Mr. Taylor, of Rolling Stone, they've got Nancy Pelosi.
They have our friend, Ms.
Cortez.
They have a black congresswoman, I can't remember her name, and they have our Somali friend from Minneapolis, Alon Omar.
Yeah, Alon Omar.
And they're celebrated as rock stars.
How about this Ayanna Pressley?
I actually don't think it's her, it's another one because there's so many.
And what we're seeing all across the country, think about it, Atlanta has a black female mayor.
I believe that San Francisco has a black female mayor, Chicago has a black female mayor, Baltimore, Washington DC, I want to say maybe even Houston.
You're also seeing a lot of black...
Female police chiefs being promoted all across the country.
So here's the point.
The left, we don't have to do anything at this point.
As you said, I'd like to reiterate it.
The left is dragging their base, their people, to this concept of reparations.
And this is only going to separate those few working class whites who are still voting Democrat for some reason.
They're going to say, wait a second.
What's going on here?
And especially, as you point out, all of these blacks, black women in particular, getting into these high places, and they still want reparations.
The more power they get, the more they have influence, the more they're going to be in a position to ask for more handouts.
Correct.
And white people are not going to sit still for that.
No, they're not.
