Time Text
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, welcome to episode 145 of Radio Renaissance.
I am Jared Taylor, editor of American Renaissance, and with me, of course, is PK, without which we just could not move forward a single step.
Now, I have to start with something of a sad story.
We have been following the fate of Daniel Pantaleo.
He is, of course, the NYPD police officer who tangled with Eric Garner approximately five years ago.
And his arrest of Eric Garner, with the assistance of several other police officers and under the supervision of a black police sergeant, by the way, was captured on video.
And this resulted in the, I can't breathe, story about how white police officers are perpetually persecuting blacks.
Well, he lost his job last week after having been put on desk duty for five years.
It took five years to get to the bottom of this, despite the fact that the U.S.
Department of Justice declined to bring criminal charges.
A grand jury, which had blacks on it, by the way, declined to bring criminal charges locally.
But this long agony has come to an end and Daniel Pantaleo is officially out of a job.
Now, I'm glad to say that a GoFundMe has been established in his name for his family.
It raised $60,000 in the first day and now it's up to $137,000.
Those of our listeners who wish to contribute, I think you'll have no difficulty finding a GoFundMe in the name of Daniel Pantaleo.
Now, to me, it's not without significance that we go over what exactly happened here.
Eric Garner, he was obese.
He had heart problems.
He had asthma.
He was a fellow who was so out of shape and had so much of a problem even just moving around that he couldn't walk one block without ending up wheezing.
At the time of the incident, he was out on bail for selling untaxed cigarettes, driving without a license, marijuana possession, and false impersonation.
Those are the charges that had him in jail just the most previous time.
And he had been arrested by the NYPD more than 30 times.
Now, of course, just because he's a man of the record and he was resisting arrest is no good reason for him to have died.
But he did not die because of Daniel Pantaleo's arm around his neck.
In fact, when all of this I can't breathe stuff, and he said this 11 times, the arm was not around his neck anymore.
It was when he's lying face down.
And it was because he was so overweight, had heart disease and asthma.
It's for these reasons that it is very likely that he had the heart attack while he's being transported to Richmond University Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.
I just want to go over these facts again.
We've gone over them before but this is a situation in which a man was doing his duty and to his credit Police Chief O'Neill, when he announced the firing, he said, you know, if I'd been a cop on the beat, I'd be angry at me for this decision too, because I could have made a similar mistake.
Well, okay, if that's the case, why fire him?
Why fire him?
And of course, Mayor Bill de Blasio was delighted that he's been fired.
All the people who make it their job to despise and hate the police are all happy.
And just as a little footnote to the whole affair, the city of New York paid the Garner family $5.9 million.
So they're all millionaires.
Whereas the man who did his job as a police officer is on the street.
I'd like to point out also that the Fraternal Order of Police is absolutely furious about this and to return to the NYPD sergeant, the black sergeant named Kizzy Adoni.
She did not at all interfere or intercede in the arrest and she is quoted as saying, the original police report is saying, the perpetrator's condition did not seem serious and he did not appear to get worse.
After he was taken down, put on the ground, and put in handcuffs.
So this, from anything that we can find, and the grand jury by the way, the grand jury that decided not to indict Daniel Pantaleo, had blacks on it as well.
This seems to be a guy who did his job, and that's the way the Fraternal Order of Police is handling it.
That seems to be the end of the road for Daniel Pantaleo.
He'll probably never be a police officer.
Who knows how he's going to be able to make a living, and if you want to contribute to his family, he's got a newborn child, now is your opportunity.
You know, the fraternal order of police nationwide, a lot of people on the dissident right, they have a negative view of police, Jared.
I don't.
The police, as our friend Colin Flaherty talked about on episode 143, available in the podcast archives, when E.K.
Mahdi talked about how you can't find applicants at this point who want to be police officers because they understand how terrifying things are when it comes to if you arrest the wrong person, if you arrest the wrong black person.
Will this be filmed?
Will this be the end of my ability to be employed in this vocation?
You look at what's going on with the Fraternal Police in cities like Baltimore where they're constantly under assault in places like New York and in Chicago it is if they only had an administration that wanted to unleash them to implement law and order.
You know there's an article coming up this is a tease in the next couple weeks on on AR that talks about how city after city after city in this country they have massive gang databases.
We know who is committing the crime.
All you have to do is basically say, hey guys, let's start doing surveillance.
We can take these guys out quickly.
We can make the city safer for everyone.
Blacks, whites, Asians, Hispanics.
Because the people who are primarily committing these crimes, they're black, young black males.
We know this.
There's no mystery.
And as we also know, if you look at the violence Policy Center, they're constantly putting out these reports every year that talks about the black victimization rates in all these states.
Yet they always refuse to say who's doing the victimization.
Or, I'm sorry, the victimizing.
Right.
It's blacks!
And instead of any kind of surveillance on known gang members and known criminal groups, the call is out to start surveillance on so-called white nationalists.
White nationalists, yeah.
We, or people who are labeled as white nationalists, we are allegedly the dangerous ones.
I don't know what a white nationalist, Jared, I know what an American is, and we're going to talk about how our country is being taken from us later in this podcast, but we're going to talk about a lot of the things that are going on too.
Accelerate this idea that any white American who dares notice something is happening to his country is automatically a white nationalist, or as we've seen with the way that they've demonized President Trump, just a white supremacist.
That's right.
Whatever these words mean.
That term racist has no more connotation anymore.
You know when you were talking about the police, I make a point of it when I see uniformed policemen I walk up to them and I say to them, I want you to know that you are the good guys and most of us know it.
You guys have the hardest job in the country and I salute you.
I'll go one step further.
It doesn't matter what race the officer is.
I do the same thing.
I think that's important that the police understand.
I think so too.
It's all about who's in power, political power.
That's why voting is so important.
In any city, municipality, county, your sheriff's race, they will do and they will listen to those who dictate orders and, at the end of the day, write the checks.
Well, I think it's just good for police morale.
I bet if you do that, if you go up and you give them a heartfelt congratulation on the job they're doing, they probably go back to the station house and they say, hey, guess what this guy said?
They probably talk about it.
I want to boost their morale.
I think they have one of the most difficult jobs in the world, and they're constantly being insulted, constantly being put down.
They need to have their morale boosted.
Well, psychologically speaking, people remember compliments far more than they do negativity, and I think you're exactly right, and I encourage our listeners to do the same.
And in the spirit of giving credit where credit is due, the orange man and his administration is doing something important and it has to do with HUD and housing and urban development.
This has to do with how easy it is to bring a lawsuit against a developer, a real estate developer, an insurance organization, or a bank having to do with alleged discrimination against minorities.
And in the past, All you had to do was claim that a developer or a bank or a mortgage outfit had some kind of disparate impact policy.
In other words, if you were to say, all right, we require a down payment of 25% on the house.
Well, that is going to have a larger impact perhaps on non-whites because they don't have the dough.
Then the defendant, the outfit that was being sued, had to prove that this was a necessary condition of doing business.
So the onus, if you had a disparate impact, and practically every sensible rule in the United States has a disparate impact.
Laws against murder have a disparate impact.
Requiring that you pay your taxes has a disparate impact.
Not all people behave in the same way.
Now it's really it is set on the whole the burden of proof is on the other side.
HUD will now require that plaintiffs clear a test and that includes evidence that the allegedly discriminatory practice Say, if you require that, well, you require that they repay their loan.
That's gonna have a disparate impact too.
All of these things do.
You have to, the plaintiff has to, from the start, show that this discriminatory practice was arbitrary, artificial, and unnecessary.
In other words, completely unrelated to the business.
Now, part of this is, the whole idea of disparate impact is, we've gotten completely away from any proof of intent to discriminate.
Nobody's even claiming that they're trying to prove that some bank deliberately is trying to fleece blacks, refuse to give money to Hispanics.
Because they can't.
They can't.
Well, because they don't.
There is no intention to do that.
Correct.
Correct.
If they were, there would probably be some kind of evidence of this, email messages.
No, but the idea that bankers are deliberately and stupidly foregoing profitable business just because the debtor is going to be black or Hispanic This is just nuts.
They want to do the deal.
They don't make money if they don't lend money.
Correct.
But anyway, this is a very important change.
Apparently, the administration is contemplating the idea of removing the entire concept of disparate impact from discrimination lawsuits.
Fantastic!
That would be a very, very significant and important change.
So this one goes up under the category of Orange Man Good.
Well, it's a white pill.
I think I hear, I think I see that phrase still used in a lot of places.
Because there is a lot of, you know, we want to be positive and there are so many simple things that can be done from a legalistic standpoint to change the direction of the country.
Yes, and these are things that administration can do.
And again, this shows the importance of elections.
Hillary Clinton would never have made a change of this kind.
The Justice Department, as I say, is trying to get rid of completely the whole idea of disparate impact.
Now, the Justice Department and the Education Department already withdrew this crazy Obama-era message to schools saying you must not discipline at disparate rates, blacks must not be suspended at any higher rate than Asians, which led to just the most terrible chaos.
Fortunately, that's been withdrawn.
Well, I think we talked about in a prior podcast that that might have led to the Parkland shooting.
It could very well have.
That guy was not, he was not recommended for any kind of, he was not turned over to the police, basically, despite crimes that should have, which should have resulted in his being unable to acquire the firearms that he used.
So, this has real life and death consequences, the like of which, of course, you will never read in the mainstream media.
But, now, were you not going to tell me that there are yet other changes going, but some of them are in the wrong direction?
Well, there are a couple fun changes, and it happens to be in the state of Illinois, the land of Lincoln.
So, at the governor's mansion there in Springfield, Illinois, starting September 3rd, individuals are going to have to sign up in advance for tours, provide a photo ID, or proof of identity before, when they arrive, and be screened by metal detectors.
Now, you would think that having to show ID, as we're always told, doesn't that have a disparate impact?
Well, yes.
Well, Illinois is one of these states that refuses to require photo ID for voting purposes because it's racist.
It's racist.
Black people can't get photo ID for some reason.
I don't know why.
I don't know why either.
But now, isn't it racist to say that you got to show photo ID to get into the governor's mansion?
Isn't this going to be racist and discriminatory against poor blacks who can't get photo ID?
Isn't Illinois also a sanctuary state?
Illinois is a sanctuary state.
So what about these poor illegal immigrants who perhaps can't get photo ID too?
Will they be turned down in this sanctuary state?
But no.
Once again, here these Democrats are caught in their own contradictions when it comes to protecting the governor, protecting themselves.
Oh boy, we better have government ID.
Those rules have to be in place.
But if it comes to protecting the integrity of the electoral process, who cares?
Because chances are that people are voting for them.
But yeah, didn't Illinois just change its other rules?
We'll talk about hypocrisy going back to what happens to those Landowners, those people who own residential real estate and are renting it out.
The Democratic Governor Pritzker has signed a new law aimed at creating protections for immigrants, illegal immigrants, who rent in Illinois.
The law is going to prohibit landlords from evicting or retaliating against tenants based on their immigration status.
Now get this, landlords are also going to be barred from disclosing or threatening to disclose Immigration status to any law enforcement, local police, or immigration agency.
That would be ICE.
This is amazing.
It's against the law to alert the authorities to a lawbreaker.
It even goes further.
Governor Pritzker, who's a Democrat, like I said, says that a person's place of birth or legal status has nothing to do with the ability to pay rent on time.
Following in the steps of California, Illinois is now the second state to have such a law passed on the books.
Pritzker says he hopes the new law will make Illinois a firewall against President Trump's aggressive immigration policies, which of course are nothing more than trying to do what the federal government is tasked with doing, and that's protect American sovereignty.
Well, this is an extraordinary thing.
To actually alert the authorities to a criminal is now a crime.
In Illinois?
And what are the penalties going to be?
Go to jail?
You can be fined?
I guess this applies only to landlords.
If you happen to know that your next door neighbor is an illegal immigrant and you call up ICE, is that a crime too?
We'll see.
This is extraordinary.
But Governor Pritzker, who signed that, at least can rest happy knowing that anybody who sets foot as part of a public tour of his mansion is going to be very carefully screened.
Going to go through a metal detector, have to show that photo ID, make a reservation in advance.
Oh, yes, yes, yes, Governor.
All that, all that's very important.
We're talking about protecting No one from the vast proletariat can enter, like you said, without registering an event.
Yes.
And moving on to one of our favorite watchdog groups, Anti-Defamation League.
They're all up in arms that despite the fact that YouTube on June 2019 updated its policies about the prohibitions against ideologies such as white supremacy, which assert the superiority of one group in order to justify discriminating against or persecuting other groups.
That's how they define white supremacy.
YouTube says they're not going to put up with that anymore.
Now, I'd be curious to know whether there are such YouTube channels.
I'd be very curious to assert the superiority of one group in order to justify discriminating against or persecuting other groups.
Boy, that sounds like sort of, well, I can imagine plenty of groups saying that in order to conquer white privilege.
But anyway, the ADL says that this update was an important step forward, but This move alone is insufficient and must be followed by many more changes from YouTube and other tech companies adequately to counter the scourge of online hate and extremism.
And they complain about a number of YouTube channels that are still available to the public.
Some of these, interestingly enough, are run by people we know.
Friends of ours.
One is America First with Nicholas Fuentes.
Nick Fuentes is a great guy.
I've met him several times.
According to the ADL, his crime is that he is the source of rhetoric that focuses on the failure of multiculturalism, immigration, and the marginalization of white people.
I don't see where anything in that description that came from the ADL would have anything to do with quote-unquote white supremacy.
Nothing whatsoever.
I think you and I would both repudiate anybody who voiced the idea of white supremacy.
It's just nuts.
You know, they always... This is a typical way these articles or these complaints are written.
They say, you know, the ADL has got a new policy.
It's gonna stop people who are potentially violent, who say that white people are superior and therefore we should kill or discriminate against non-whites.
But look, they're still letting Nick Fuentes on YouTube.
Of course, Nick Fuentes has absolutely nothing to do with that.
He would be just as opposed to that as we are.
Then, of course, there's the American Identity Movement.
And ADL explains that they advocate for the preservation of white culture under the guise of American patriotism.
Well, boy, we've got to stop that, haven't we?
And then there's another YouTube channel that really gets under the ADL skin.
It's called American Renaissance.
I have not heard of that.
I want to check it out.
Well, this is the way they describe it.
American Renaissance promotes pseudo-scientific studies that attempt to demonstrate the intellectual and cultural superiority of whites and publishes articles on the supposed decline of American society because of integrationist social policies.
As opposed to the corporate media promoting the idea that it's white privilege or the fact that we refuse to admit that the real founding of America, which you're about to talk about, the 1619 Project, that's the original sin, right?
Well, and then they go on to say, American Renaissance generally avoids the crude bigotry and stereotyping characteristic of many other racist publications.
We generally avoid.
I wonder when we are guilty of crude bigotry and stereotyping.
You know, the way they describe this, the way they talk about this, they make it sound as though we are just dying to shout the N-word from the rooftops, but somehow we manage to restrain ourselves.
Yeah, there you go.
Another YouTube channel that they just do not like one bit is Arctos Media.
They say it's a small publishing company that features books by white nationalists and translates European Identitarian works in English.
That sounds pretty subversive and dangerous, doesn't it?
Then, of course, there's James Alsop, another good guy.
He's spoken at American Renaissance conferences.
A guy who really is a very, very moderate, well-considered fellow.
Political Cesspool with James Edwards, another great guy who's spoken at American Renaissance conferences.
And then, of course, Red Eyes TV.
And this is the way they describe Red Eyes.
It features online TV and radio shows, including Lana Loktev's Radio 314, and these programs celebrate European identity and culture.
Oh boy, oh boy, we can't have that.
We just can't have that.
So here's the ADL.
The ADL says, you know, it was a good step forward when YouTube promised to kick people off who claim that white people are superior and therefore that justifies persecuting or maybe violence against other races.
But look at this.
Lana Laktov is still on YouTube and so is Arctos.
It's just pathetic the way this sort of bait-and-switch kind of operation goes on.
But we have the same kinds of problems in many different areas, also including in Philadelphia.
Well, it wouldn't be so pathetic if it wasn't so effective, unfortunately.
Well, see, that's just it.
You wonder what's going to happen when YouTube actually reads this.
They're going to say, oh, the ADL is after us now.
And in fact, just yesterday, there was a USA Today article making similar complaints.
Oh, this hate is just swimming around the internet.
And they went on to say that American Renaissance was the website that inspired Dylann Roof to go on his shooting rampage.
What?
Yes, that's what USA Today claimed.
That's libelous.
Well, I wrote them a stiff letter today saying, you got it wrong, boys, and you better correct it.
That is libelous!
Well, I would think so.
I said this is a very damaging, this is a very damaging, incorrect statement and correct it immediately and we copied our lawyers on this.
Well yeah, years ago, I mean, I knew someone who was murdered by an individual who was motivated by his how he was taught about white privilege in college and he
went and shot three white girls and one of them died. I wish that somebody had
filed a lawsuit against whatever college had taught him such subversive
ideas but again it's every college it's every aspect of American
society. But speak to us of Philadelphia on our dear friend our dear friend Larry
Krasner.
You shouldn't be speaking in hyperbole in such manners.
He's no friend of ours.
In fact, if you recall, let's just put this in context.
Let's step back one step.
It was last week, I believe, that a black guy who had a long rap sheet, he had obtained, illegally, a firearm.
I believe it was a rifle, a semi-automatic rifle of some sort.
He held scores of police off for hours.
He shot a number of them.
He was eventually arrested.
This is a guy who should have been in jail.
It was incredible to look at all the Democratic candidates who used this episode to justify their attempts to Take away the Second Amendment for people like you and me.
Well, Krasner is, of course, the Philadelphia DA.
He accepted a $1.45 million check by billionaire George Soros to fund his Independent Political Action Committee, which backed Krasner when he ran for office back in 2017.
Well, after this shooting, On Thursday, August 15th, there was a statement by U.S.
Attorney William McSwain that was targeted directly at District Attorney Krasner.
McSwain said, quote, there is a new culture of disrespect for law enforcement in this city, the city of Philadelphia, that is promoted and championed by District Attorney Larry Krasner, and I am fed up with it.
It all started with chants at the DA's victory party, chants of, Fuck the police and no good cops in a racist system.
Isn't this astonishing?
A victory party for a district attorney?
I remember vividly when this took place.
I remember thinking, oh my gosh, we're seeing more and more of these cities.
You think about Chicago, Kim Webb.
Is it Kim Webb?
I can't remember her name.
Kim Fox.
Fox.
Fox.
Yeah, you've got the District Attorney in Dallas.
You've got the DA and a number of other cities that are basically advocating that criminal justice, the concept of criminal justice, be abandoned and reformed so that it's almost impossible to arrest.
Blacks and brown people.
So basically what's happened, and this is, I'm reading some more here, we've now endured over a year and a half of the worst kinds of slander against law enforcement.
The DA routinely calls police and prosecutors corrupt and racist, even war criminals that he compares to Nazis.
This vile rhetoric puts our police in danger, it disgraces the office of the district attorney, and it harms the good people in the city of Philadelphia and rewards the wicked.
And remember, this is still U.S.
Attorney William McSwain talking.
Correct.
I'm reading.
I'm reading.
This is powerful.
This is part of his statement.
And he finishes by saying, quote, the criminal laws in this city should be aggressively enforced in order to protect the public.
And the police.
My office is doing all that we can.
We have prosecuted 70% more violent crime cases this year than we did last year in response to the district attorney's lawlessness.
End quote.
Now, Mr. Taylor, Jared, Philadelphia had one of its highest rates of homicide in sheer numbers and per capita of 100,000 people in 2018.
Which, as you know, and our listeners will soon know, That full year was after Krasner took office.
So he took office in early January 2018, and these policies that McSwain said were lawlessness, which led to this increase of 70% more violent crime.
Well, they had to process it.
Exactly, because the DA's office won't even deal with it.
Exactly.
No, it's outrageous.
But you know, this to me is a very important sign of the extraordinary division in our country.
Correct.
You have a federal district, he's the top lawman for the district federally, who is lambasting The top lawman for the city, publicly, because they have completely diametrically opposed ideas of what a district attorney should do.
I suspect this is without precedent in the history of the United States.
When has a federal DA written in these tones against a local DA?
It's just extraordinary.
Of course, it's worth knowing that this Krasner guy, he won in the Democratic primary.
In Philadelphia, if you win the Democratic primary, you're going to win because the Republicans are just such a weak and wimpy force in their city.
He only got 38% of the vote of the Democratic primary.
Six other people ran in this race.
That's right.
And he by no means represents the city.
And once again, here we have a guy who was backed by this fellow, George Soros.
Soros still lives in Hungary.
Where does he live?
London?
I don't know.
He doesn't even live in the United States.
No, he doesn't.
But he writes these checks, and these are races in which even $100,000, $200,000 can swing an election.
Even $100,000, $200,000 can swing an election.
And this guy writes a check for $1.5 million for this guy who wants to reap.
Think about that.
on the whole system.
And just to add to his antics, one of the things he did very shortly after he got in office
was file a motion in the Pennsylvania Supreme Court to declare the state's death penalty unconstitutional.
This was getting rid of bail, not enforcing the law against sex workers, not enforcing
the law against shoplifters.
He also fired 31 prosecutors from the DA's office.
Think about that, people who had a record, who had relationships with police, who knew what was going on,
who knew how bad the crime was.
Jared, this is a city that in 2018, they took down the Frank Rizzo statue because that was seen as divisive and racist.
Frank Rizzo was a great man.
He's the kind of big man that probably is extinct now because someone like him could never rise through the ranks of the police and then become a legend that could then be elected into office.
Right, right.
Nope, he was a white man.
They all gotta go.
They all gotta go.
So yes, that's the bad news from Philadelphia.
We have, well actually, I think what happened with the U.S.
Attorney, the U.S.
Attorney there.
That's great news!
No!
So this is, Krasner is the bad news, but it's great news that this fellow, William McSwain, again, he is a Trump appointee.
Giving credit where credit is due.
Who is really opening up with both barrels on this.
Elections have consequences.
Even something that might seem as minute as an appointment to that position.
Look what that did.
It creates that division.
It accelerates and it shows this disconnect.
I didn't live through it, but you saw what happened in the 80s and early 90s, the crack war, which led to the implementation of, and the creation of this, I don't want to say godlike mindset around Will Bratton and New York with broken windows policing, but that did a lot to make America And urban America, a lot safer.
Oh, I lived in New York City in the David Dinkins era.
David Dinkins.
He was the first black mayor of New York City.
Yes, he was.
And everybody looks back on that just with a shudder and with horror.
The city was really in its nadir.
But in any case, we have another Donald Trump story of a funny kind here.
This is a lawyer chosen by Mr. Trump to serve on the federal appeals court.
He has not yet been confirmed, but he argued, and this is name is Stephen Menashe, he argued that countries are weakened by ethnic diversity.
Fancy that!
Now this guy wrote in an academic journal that, quote, ethnic ties provide the groundwork for social trust.
He also went on to say that solidarity underlying democratic polities rests in large part on ethnic identification.
Oh, this concept goes back to Aristotle, so I think he's probably right.
Yes, it's deeply rooted in human nature.
He wrote this in 2010 in an article for the University of Pennsylvania Journal of International Law.
And the article is titled, Ethno-Nationalism and Liberal Democracy.
Now, he was writing this with a particular interest in mind.
He says his aim is to refute claims that Israel's particularist identity, its desire to serve as a homeland for the Jewish people, contradicts principles of universalism and equality upon which liberal democracy supposedly rests.
He goes on to say that liberal democracy works just fine with ethnic identification.
He goes on to say, social scientists have found that greater ethnic heterogeneity is associated with lower social trust.
That would be, of course, Robert Putnam, who sat on those findings because he was so depressed by them.
He was embarrassed by them.
Well, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy.
Well, the word got out.
Some lefty snoop, no doubt, was looking through these articles, and he pounced on this, and Rachel Maddow, the great and good Rachel Maddow, who is tilting at windmills and making sure that virtue will prevail throughout the ages, she described his arguments as, a highbrow argument for racial purity in the nation state.
Well, Mr. Menasci is now backpedaling.
He says he was certainly not advocating for racial purity, and he made a somewhat ambiguous statement here.
Here he says, I take seriously the role of the United States
as a nation of immigrants and of Israel as a home for the Jewish people, both of which
are important because of suffering that has been caused by ethnic nationalism.
So it sounds to me as though he was trying to come up with a carefully argued defense of ethnic nationalism in Israel and now he's rather caught on the horns of a dilemma because how is he supposed to argue that works for Israel but it doesn't work for America?
It doesn't work anywhere else except for Israel.
Oh, it works in plenty of other places.
You know, I think you'd think it worked fine in Japan or Korea or Turkey or Mexico, but we'll see how this plays out.
Real quick, wasn't this the whole concept behind the whole national conservatism event in a lot of ways as well?
Well, I wouldn't go so far as to put it in terms as simple as that, but it's unquestionably the case.
I talked about this in my latest video at the Ameren video, in which the press was all in a dither.
Because Kashmir, Jammu and Kashmir, the state of northern India, that's the only state in all of India that's got a Muslim majority.
It had a special status in India from 1947 on at the time India became independent.
There was something called Section 35A, as I recall, in the Constitution, which guarantees that outsiders are not to own land in Jammu and Kashmir or live there permanently.
It's to save this special status.
Well, the Indian nationalists running the country now have decided to suspend that special status so Hindus can move in.
And the press is all excited and all upset.
This will change its character.
Well, if it's okay for the Kashmiris, why is it okay for us?
But you know, that's the question that never gets answered, hardly ever even asked, and I really would like to hear an answer to that question.
I think more people are beginning to ask that question, and we'll get to that.
I think so, too.
But anyway, then there's the New York Times.
The New York Times, which has rolled out in its magazine, probably one of the fattest editions of the New York Times magazine ever to appear, over 100 pages devoted to what they call the 1619 Project.
Here's how they describe it.
The goal... Well, by the way, I should point out that 1619 is the year the first African slaves came to North America.
Jamestown colony was founded in 1607 and in 1619, I think it was about a dozen, not even as many as 20 African slaves showed up.
So, the goal of the 1619 project, a major initiative from the New York Times, that this issue of the magazine inaugurates.
So this is just the first installment.
is to reframe American history by considering what it would mean to regard 1619 as our nation's birth year.
Doing so requires us to place the consequences of slavery and the contributions of black Americans at the very center of the story we tell ourselves about who we are as a country.
Wow!
They really want to turn the country entirely inside out and on its head.
The slavery and blacks are at the very center of the story.
And as I say, this is more than 100 pages, 10 essays, a photo essay, a collection of original poems and stories from 16 additional writers.
Have you read it?
No, no, no, no.
I've just read about it.
I'm not sure.
I think it would be gruesome to have to drag myself through this thing.
But I think it is worth reading the titles of some of these articles.
Let's take turns.
Oh, we'll take turns.
You begin, sir.
So, to start, let's rule the ugliness.
Our democracy's founding ideals were false when they were written.
Black Americans have fought to make them true.
There you go.
Saved by black Americans.
We poor white people who built the country, you know, we were all finding our ideals of false, but we were saved by black people.
Hidden figures everywhere.
Everywhere.
Boy, I'll say.
Now here's another title.
In order to understand the brutality of American capitalism, you have to start on the plantation.
In other words, the Koch brothers, they took their lessons from Simon Legree.
What is this, Tom?
American capitalism is especially brutal because we had slavery?
Yeah.
Wow.
Then, what's next?
Myths about physical racial differences were used to justify slavery and are still believed by doctors today.
Oh, those stupid ignorant doctors.
What?
What are these?
So they're teaching...
So they're teaching the same type of ideas that justified slavery in medical schools all across the country?
My mind is blown.
Yes, one boggles at this.
Here's another title.
These titles are long, but anyway.
America holds onto an undemocratic assumption from its founding that some people deserve more power than others.
Now, I think some people do deserve more power than others.
There are some people who are louts and losers and criminals.
They don't deserve any power at all.
Now, I suppose what they're saying is, the implication is that white people deserve more power than others.
But if their idea is that everybody should have the equal amount of power, well, that's just nuts to begin with.
Universal suffrage is nothing more than universal suffering.
Here we go.
Here's another one for you.
Here's a great quote from the goal of the 1619 Project.
For centuries, black music, forged in bondage, has been the sound of complete artistic freedom.
No wonder everybody is always stealing it!
I've tried to do my best NPR impersonation, but you read these and you immediately think, wow, is this from The Onion?
Is this from that conservative satire site Babylon Bee?
Who wrote this?
What ombudsman allowed some of this stuff to get through?
Well, black music forged in bondage has been the sound of complete artistic freedom.
There you go.
And so white people have just been constantly stealing it.
Anything good in American music, of course, was stolen from Here's another one.
Here's another great one.
Why doesn't the United States have universal health care?
The answer has everything to do with race.
And you don't have to read the article to understand that it's nothing more than a bromide against bigoted white people who won't pony up more money.
That's right.
Here's one for you.
Slavery gave America a fear of black people and a taste for violent punishment.
Both still define our criminal justice system.
There you go.
Black people are at the center of our narratives.
Our criminal justice system is characterized and defined by slavery.
And here's another one.
A vast wealth gap driven by segregation, redlining, evictions, and exclusion separates black and white America.
Of course you know blacks and whites are equally hard-working and talented, but you know, all of this has been just poured onto them in the most oppressive and horrible way.
Failure to pay your rent or to make your mortgage payment on time now is defined as racist.
All our fault.
White privilege.
And let me just knock out the last two because they kind of go together.
400 years ago after enslaved Africans were first brought to Virginia, most Americans still don't know the full story of slavery.
What do Americans know the full story of, by the way?
You know, white privilege.
We are committing educational malpractice.
Why slavery is mistaught and worse, In American schools.
Now, sorry, these titles all sound like rejects from, you know, individuals who are going for their Ph.D.
in Sociology or Ethnic Studies or African American Studies and they're pitching to any and every academic house and these were their Ph.D.
thesis that Now someone was magically in this in this collection of 1619 reflections.
And you know slavery is mistaught.
Is it taught in school to some sort of benevolent wonderful thing and those happy darkies were Just the most content and joyful folks in the world.
What do they mean by mistaught?
Slavery has just been blown up to this huge thing.
You can't go to a Civil War battlefield.
You can't visit.
Just the other day, I was at the home of James Madison.
Montpelier.
And there's, it's all about slavery now.
That's all, that's the American narrative.
That's all, that's all we hear about.
It's all about slavery, but somehow it's mistaught.
I wonder, you know, some of these articles, I mean, if you have really the guts to drag yourself through it, it might be interesting to see what they're actually saying.
But now, I believe there is another aspect of America that's under fire here.
The other aspect of America that's under fire comes courtesy of someone who will never be misidentified as a comrade, and that would be Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
Oh, she's identified as our comrade, I'm sure, in many circles, just not ours.
Not yet, not in ours.
She has, of course, come out and called the Electoral College a racist scam that has to go.
She was doing an Instagram video Where she was driving along a deserted highway and joking about how many votes there are in rural America.
And of course this is nothing more than a thinly disguised attack on white people.
I'm afraid so.
She said, quote, we're coming to you live from the electoral college.
Many votes here, as you can see.
Very efficient way to choose leadership of the country.
I mean, I can't think of any other way, can you?
And of course she's being facetious, sanctimonious.
Everything that we know is truly in her heart is resentment and hatred of white people who still have the ability to dictate some semblance of government in the country that their forefathers created.
Well, of course, if the Electoral College is a racist scam that's got to go, basically it sounds as though the Constitution is a racist scam that's got to go.
It was part of the Constitution.
It wasn't set up for any racial reason at all.
It was set up because the founders didn't trust the rabble to elect a president.
Now, as it is, it just reflects different populations, and it's true that you can win with the minority of the popular vote, but the idea that this is a racist scam, that's Cortez all the way.
Well, she'd go on.
She'd say this.
Due to severe racial disparities in certain states that have yet to be Joyously enhanced with diversity.
The electoral college effectively weighs white voters over voters of color as opposed to a one-person, one-vote system where all our votes are counted equally.
Could you imagine if we had this kind of democracy-altering fairness provision for literally any other group?
If we weighed, for example, black and indigenous voters more because of unfairness.
Facts are facts, America!
She concludes, the electoral college has to go.
What she's effectively saying is white people and their votes have to go to usher in this utopia, this people of color utopia.
Yes, indeed.
And all these white people have got to be on constant alert, not to be seduced by any alternative view.
Just this last week, BBC had an article called, How I Stopped My Teenager Being Recruited Online.
And Rita Prasad is certainly not talking about the Marine Corps or the Boy Scouts.
She highlights someone by the name of Joanna Schroeder.
She is a Los Angeles-based media critic and mother of three.
She posted a Twitter thread about being the parent of white boys, quote, in a world rife with easy access to extremist viewpoints by monitoring their social media.
The parents have to monitor their social media and teaching empathy.
And this became a widespread talking point, amassed nearly 180,000 likes on Twitter and 8,500 comments.
Now, some of the things that Joanna Schroeder in explaining to white parents how to properly protect their white boys from the perils and evils of the Internet.
She says, The red flags started going up for us when a year or so ago our children started asking questions such as Why can black people copy white culture, but white people can't copy black culture?
Why is one cultural appropriation, but the other is not?
Now that's a red flag.
You know your boy is on the slippery slope to neo-Nazism.
Maybe just straight out Nazism, but he asks a question like that.
And here's another red flag.
If your child says, triggered, as a joke referring to people being sensitive, he's already being exposed and on his way.
So you must intervene.
Now, she says, I've seen so many white boys falling prey to the system, so beware.
She claims that wicked people like us, quote, we have content carefully curated to attract young men.
What do these people want to have happen to white people who are curious about what's happening?
A ball-pin hammer taken to their head so they can't even have lucid thoughts.
She wants to police, absolutely control.
Now, I hope she does.
I hope she does stand over their shoulder, look over their shoulders constantly, tell them to, okay, give us a report, a log of every website you've been to.
I hope she does that.
I hope she does that.
That will drive them straight into our arms.
But that's in effect what she's saying.
Now, somebody who actually replied to her on Twitter says, As a white teen myself, I've seen this happen to people that I was surrounded by in high school.
I watched how the divide formed between those who were heavily affected and those who weren't.
By the end of senior year, the difference is shocking and in some cases terrifying.
Well, this person, of course, says that it's terrifying when white people wake up.
But the difference is remarkable.
People whose eyes are open and people whose eyes are closed.
Of course, they believe that the more a white person's eyes are open, The more terrifying it is.
Well, in some respects, I suppose it is terrifying for them when white people wake up.
But the BBC goes on to say, again, this is Ritu Prasad writing.
I suspect she's not of Anglo-Saxon ancestry, but you never can tell.
She says, living in a primarily white neighborhood and going to a primarily white school, for example, might Convey particular messages that leave children unprepared to deal with encountering things like white supremacist ideologies online.
What?
I mean, just the fact you live in a white neighborhood makes you unprepared?
As a matter of fact, I think living in a mixed neighborhood, going to school with a majority of non-whites, is going to make you much more receptive to something like American Renaissance than living in an all-white neighborhood.
Where you, you know, you believe everything that you know about white people, about black people or Mexicans is what you read in Time Magazine.
But anyway, now there's another quote here.
I thought this was revealing.
Ritu Prasad quotes Tom Redermacher, an eighth grade teacher in Minnesota.
Quote, White teenagers are ripe for radicalization now amid broader cultural changes that make them feel like they're under attack from mainstream society.
I wonder why that would be.
They feel like they're under attack.
He says, as white boys, they were so consistently worried about being called racist that they made jokes to each other within their private group, almost as a form of gallows humor to toy with the thing that they were most scared of, felt the most attacked for.
You know, this is really a backhanded recognition of what's going on.
White boys are constantly being told that they are oppressors, that they are bad, and so this alone is enough for them to start sort of joking amongst themselves.
As crazy as it might sound, I think at first you do have to joke about it.
I think that's why that idea of the clown world has caught on so much, because people see what's happening and the only way to Think about how dramatic this shift has been, and we're about to talk about how dramatic the shift has been in the past just 18 years in this country.
But when you start to think about, holy cow, what is this world going to be like when I am... I'm already hated so much.
Right.
The entire entertainment industry, academia, in some cases the state, corporate America, are all aligned against me.
You have to laugh at first, and then anger sets in.
You realize, oh my gosh, no one is coming to save us.
And that's when it goes from clown world to holy cow.
What is going on?
I'm old enough not to have been educated in the system in which, every time I turned around, I was told that I and my ancestors were all wicked people.
But I should think, a young guy, 18, 19, 20 years old, from kindergarten on, they're beating over the head with this stuff.
I think they have every right to be hopping mad, but they can't appear to be hopping mad.
Speaking of hopping mad, Jared, if you would, since you are fluent in French, if you would read me the title of this It's called La ruée vers l'Europe.
Jeune Afrique en route pour le vieux continent.
And that's the title that I would translate as follows.
The Scramble for Europe.
Young Africa on its way to the old continent.
Now, ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to podcast episode 145.
I want you to remember this moment because folks, This is a new book that was just released and on August 26,
so in a few days, National Review is actually going to publish a review of
this book by Stephen Smith.
Now Stephen Smith is a he's a leading expert of contemporary Africa.
He's been a journalist for 30 years, primarily writing for French publications.
He's also a professor of African Studies at Duke University.
This book, guys and girls, is, as Jared translated, entitled, The Scramble for Europe, Young Africa on its Way to the Old Continent.
And, in this review, Which appears under the title Out of Africa by Chris Caldwell and of all places National Review.
It seems like this might be one of those transformative books.
I'm going to go and put it out there.
That gets people on the right thinking about what Steve Saylor has called the most important topic.
of our time, of this century, and that is this massive population explosion in every country in Africa.
What that means as those countries get poorer and poorer, and then they see this dying continent of Europe that seems right for the picking because of the racial lethargy that has overtaken whites in the old continent.
That might be a good term right there.
It's not just racial, just complete denaturing, apathy, capitulation.
But anyway, yes.
Well, here's what Caldwell writes that Smith lays out.
And he writes, Smith begins by laying out some facts.
Africa is adding people at a rate never before seen on any continent.
The population of sub-Saharan Africa alone, now about a billion people, will more than double to 2.2 billion people by mid-century, while that of Western Europe will fall to a doddering half billion or so.
The most serious heresy in Smith's book is this.
This is Caldwell writing.
This is important.
Everyone get ready.
Caldwell writes that Smith says, The extraordinarily disruptive mass movement of labor and humanity from Africa to Europe, should it come, will bring Europe no meaningful benefits.
I would express myself even more strongly.
But anyway, that's a good start.
Narratives of Europe's enrichment by migration are post-facto rationalizations for something that Europe is undergoing, not choosing.
Red flags are flying everywhere here.
Europe does not need an influx of youthful African labor, Smith writes, because both robotization, automation, and rising retirement ages are shrinking the demand for it.
Migrant laborers cannot fund the European welfare state.
In fact, they will undermine it because of the cost of schools, health, and other government services that Filioprogenitive newcomers draw on exceeds their tax payments.
Nor will the mass exodus help Africa.
It will sap the rising middle class in precisely the countries, Senegal, Ghani, the Ivory Coast, Nigeria, Kenya, with the best chances for economic success.
Now, I might disagree with that last part as well, but... Well, the point is, it needs to be stopped.
The question is whether or not National Review would ever have the guts to say that.
But, yes.
They published this essay.
They published this review.
It's already caused quite a commotion online.
People are saying, hey, at least they're noticing.
At least they're noticing.
And speaking of noticing, we do have to end on, well, I don't want to call it a black pill.
We'll just call it the great replacement pill.
And that is some new research that just came out.
published yesterday.
You can go to the Pew Research Center.
The title of the piece is Reflecting a Demographic Shift, 109 U.S.
Counties Have Become Majority Non-White Since 2000.
So you're talking about in 18 years, 109 U.S.
counties have become majority non-white.
Of course, that's largely due to the white share of the population declining as the population of Hispanic, Asian, and Black populations grow.
109 counties from, in 22 states, California, Kansas, to North Carolina.
Georgia is one of the states that's seen the most significant, shocking changes, largely in metro Atlanta.
Those went from majority white to majority non-white.
Of course, that is where non-Hispanic whites are no longer the majority.
Overall, 293 U.S.
counties were majority non-white in 2018.
In addition, several majority white counties with large white populations are going to flip.
in the coming years.
Those include Fairfax County, which is in Northern Virginia.
Pima County, which is in Arizona.
Milwaukee County.
White flight from Milwaukee.
Guess what?
The undertow is going to follow.
Now Milwaukee County is going to go.
Cobb County, Georgia.
That's a county that was 95% white in 1990.
95% white.
Cobb County, Georgia.
in 1990. 95% white. Cobb County, Georgia. Marietta. Things move quickly, don't they?
All of those, Jared and dear listener, had populations that were less than 52% white in 2019.
Well, you've just left me feeling really chipper.
I will walk off this podcast with a spring in my step and a song on my lips.
Thanks so much for this wonderful news.
Well, the Great Replacement is real and it's thanks to publications like America Renaissance that highlight what's happening and of course think tanks like the Pew Research Center that put these numbers out.
We want to hear from you guys and we're going to get some great questions next week.
We promise.
Shoot me an email becausewelivehereatprotonmail.com.
Once again, that email is becausewelivehereatprotonmail.com or you can go to the Contact Us tab at amran.com.
So, for Jared Taylor, this has been Paul Kersey.
Our podcast time is up.
