AmRen 2018: "Reports from the Field" (2018)
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
Could you take your seats, please?
I have a few announcements.
I'll start with the most disagreeable, and that is the checkout is at 11 o'clock.
And I have a much more pleasant announcement to make, and that is that we have established both the date and the place for next year's American Renaissance Conference.
It will be in the most beautiful and safest part of the entire state of Tennessee, namely Montgomery Bell State Park.
Applause
And the dates will be May 17th through 19th, so please put that on your calendar and I'll hope to see all of you back next year.
Sunday morning, of course, is the toughest slot to fill in the program.
And so for that reason, we have selected some of the best and most attractive people in our movement to fill that slot.
We like to hear from allied organizations.
And one of my favorite allied organizations is VDARE.com, which for many years has been doing great work for our people.
And VDARE will be represented by...
It's star writer and podcaster, John Derbyshire, who is unquestionably, I think, their most clubbable of all their contributors.
So please welcome John Derbyshire, who will give us a message from Vidair.
This seems to have clicked off.
Hello? Where's our mic guy?
You may have to bellow.
Can we just use this?
I can bellow.
No, you won't need to bellow.
Of course, I think I'd like to hear you bellow.
No, you wouldn't.
Thank you, Jared.
Thank you.
How is the sound level there?
Is that okay?
Good. I write for vdare.com.
I try to keep myself strictly a content provider and keep the fundraising and the technical aspects at arm's length.
But Peter and Lydia could not be here today for reasons that will become clear.
And they asked me to speak for them.
I resisted a bit at first, just on the grounds that I am merely a content provider.
But Lydia got me off the hook completely there.
She said,"All right, I'll tell you what to say." And she wrote a very nice letter addressed to all of you.
So here is a letter from Lydia Brimelow to all of you.
First of all, I want to thank John Derbyshire for reading this letter on behalf of Videre.com.
And I want to announce here that we expect him back for our next Christmas webcast.
Last time he greatly impressed our viewers by drinking half a bottle of TK on camera with no visible effect.
I'm not actually so sure about that.
I've seen that video and towards the end of it I'm swaying quite noticeably.
But far be it for me to go and say Lydia.
Who said immigrants couldn't assimilate?
There you go.
At least some of them can.
My husband, Peter Bremelow, the editor of VDare.com, still drinks vodka.
We expect a subpoena from Robert Mueller any minute.
Secondly, I want to say how very sorry I am not to be at this American Renaissance conference in this critical year.
What can I say?
Peter and I are...
Breeders. And with three little girls at home, travel is always difficult.
I should say, I've had the pleasure of...
I've had the hospitality of the Brimelows at their home, and it's just a marvellous family.
It's a warm, busy, lively, loving family.
They're just great people.
And the three little girls are perfect little angels, all of them.
I gather Jared Taylor has said this weekend that everyone should have more babies.
Well, that's why we're up at 6:45 on this Saturday morning making breakfast when we could have been leisurely preparing for a good hate with all of you.
So I hope Jared will forgive us.
I'm particularly sorry to miss our very many V-Day.com friends who attend this conference.
Dare I call it the Davos of the Patriot movement.
And I want to congratulate Jared.
I think that's quite good actually.
I hope you all know what Davos is.
It's all the big movers and shakers of the world gathering at a luxury resort in Switzerland.
I think it's a tick or two above Montgomery Bell State Park.
And I want to congratulate Jared Taylor and his band of brothers for holding it despite all odds.
I second that.
Jared, as a daughter of the Confederacy, I can say this.
Robert E. Lee would be proud of you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Peter tells me that in the early years of the Reagan presidency, when the economy was still floundering out of the great stagflation of the late 1970s, Reagan used to tell Americans, Take the strain.
This was before my time, of course.
But, despite mid-term losses, Reagan was re-elected in 1984.
Well, in what we call the patriotic immigration reform movement, we're taking the strain now.
You all know the details.
Since the last AMREN conference, We saw the suppression of the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville.
V-Day.com, like American Renaissance, was not involved in Charlottesville.
But that doesn't mean we couldn't see what was happening.
This was a Democrat riot.
A riot by elected, uniformed...
Paramilitary and fellow travelling civilian democrats, aided and abetted by democrats in the mainstream media, aimed at suppressing an alt-right protest whose legality had been upheld by a federal judge.
And I'd just like, on my own account, I'd just like to interpolate here.
My heartfelt personal thanks to the executive authorities of the state of Tennessee for doing this weekend what authorities exist to do, protecting the rights of their citizens.
In this case, the right to peaceably assemble.
Thanks to Governor Haslam and Lieutenant Governor McNally.
And thanks to all the uniformed officers of the state of Tennessee who've been keeping the peace this weekend.
That's just from me.
But I'm sure Lydia would second it.
And it was followed...
I'm sorry, we're back at Charlottesville.
And it was followed by a clearly coordinated reign of terror.
In which dissident-right websites like American Renaissance and VDare.com lost platforms and facilities.
In our case, PayPal's cancellation without any warning at all, although we did have an alternative payment system already in place to go, it meant that the subscription list to our VDare.com quarterly Trezine That's Lydia's word.
I've never seen that word, a tree zine.
I guess that means an old-fashioned magazine printed on paper.
Tree zine.
You live and learn.
Which, paradoxically, we started about the time that American Renaissance went off tree.
Off tree.
I'm getting this.
Okay. Tree zine.
Off tree.
Was destroyed.
We have not yet fully restored it.
That's the subscription list to the V-Day.com quarterly.
As Peter said here last year, we have a totalitarian left in this country.
If you are interested in getting the V-Day quarterly, please give John Derbyshire your information and we'll make it happen.
So, what do we do?
Three things.
Retrieve the wounded.
Enter the legal fray and build up the home front.
First, we're determined to retrieve the wounded.
That is why we're proud of publishing updates on the plight of what we call the Charlottesville Seven.
Those Unite the Right demonstrators excessively charged and in some cases incredibly still being held without bail.
We don't know these people.
They probably think VDare.com is boring.
But the fact is that they are victims of what the late Sam Francis called anarcho-tyranny.
And that anarcho-tyranny is coming for us next.
If you don't know the term anarcho-tyranny, that's when the state concentrates its law enforcement efforts against.
Basically decent, ordinary, law-abiding citizens and ignores actual criminality.
In fact, I can see from Twitter that anarcho-tyranny is already outside.
She means outside the conference centre here.
Please, all of you, be careful going home.
A second thing we have to do, litigation.
I don't think it's a criticism of anyone to say that, unlike the left, We're simply not up to speed on this, but we'll get there.
I want to congratulate Jared and American Renaissance for filing suit against Twitter.
I don't think...
I don't think it will upset our royals too much when I say we're looking at a similar suit against PayPal.
There are other targets as well.
All it will take is money.
These totalitarian left atrocities do not happen in a legal vacuum.
An example, as some of you know, V-Day.com has had three hotel venues cancel conferences in the last 12 months.
Of course, it's scandalous that we can't have conferences to discuss what is, in effect, the immigration platform upon which...
The President of the United States was elected.
But I want to tell you that every one of those hotels was under contract and every one of them has had to pay us damages.
It's what the Marxists call exploiting the contradictions.
Finally, building up the home front.
We have to work together.
We have to create our own networks.
That's why we're always happy to promote Amren's conference.
A couple of years ago, Greg Johnson said that countercurrents got more traffic from other dissident rights sites than from the MSM, the mainstream media.
On the very rare occasions they deign to link to countercurrents at all.
Peter keeps wittering about building a completely new links page on vdare.com, featuring an index of absolutely all Dissident right content producers.
He thinks we have to go back to this earlier form to use our critical mass to counter search engine shadow banning.
I keep telling him to get on with it.
This can play out offline as well.
Stay in touch with the friends you've made this weekend.
Network with like-minded professionals.
I even know of some of you who are aiming to live in the same town, even the same neighbourhoods, to raise your families together.
That's the idea.
We must organise around the fact that while our movement could be deplatformed online at any moment, they can't actually prevent us from being a community.
V-Day.com and American Renaissance, to quote the boomer movie, Animal House, Gen Z participants here, feel free to hiss any time I say the word boomer,
have, quote, a long tradition of existence.
They've both been around for a long time.
Sort of like their editors and some of their contributors.
And they're not going anywhere, particularly in Peter's case because he has a young family to support.
Peter has a gruesome analogy he likes.
Peter the Great's capital of St. Petersburg was supposed to have been built on the bones of thousands of serfs who died draining the marshes.
If you think of Donald Trump's unexpected victory as St. Petersburg and the drained marshes as the seismic shift in the consciousness of grassroots America, then the foundational bones are actually thousands of articles published by VDare.com and American Renaissance.
Both deserve credit.
See you next year.
Signed, Lydia Brimler.
Thank you very much.
I think they need to sign John Derbyshire for...
voiceovers for Japanese anime.
Our next talk is going to be from Greg Johnson.
I think he has set a remarkable and enviable intellectual tone for counter-currents and everything that he's touched.
Greg and I were in Europe together.
Speaking to a number of groups there, and I was delighted to see that his reputation and his influence are spreading across the Atlantic, just as they are spreading across the continent of the United States.
So please welcome Greg Johnson.
This is the fifth, and I would say the best, Ameren conference that I've attended.
I want to thank Jared for inviting me to give this little talk and also the entire AMREN team for making it possible.
I want to thank the staff of this facility.
They've been extremely nice.
I'm extremely grateful to all the police and rangers and state troopers and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation for making this definitely the safest AMREN I've ever attended.
And it's the fascist too because And I think we all appreciate the kind of militaristic aesthetic of having to be wandered in by uniformed people and Cossacks riding through the woods on horseback.
Thank you.
Thank you.
How many of you here are at your first American Renaissance?
Raise your hand.
That's an impressive number.
How many are at your first public nationalist gathering ever period?
That's a lot of people too.
I want to applaud you and everyone to applaud you.
It takes courage to attend your first event and It's a sign of your wisdom, as well as your courage, that you've chosen Ameren to be your first event.
And I know there are a number of people who are anxious about security here, and I was enormously relieved when I saw just how much security was provided for this, and I hope that this will be a regular feature in the future.
I want to ask one other question.
How many people in this room are 25 years old or under?
raise your hand.
I wish I knew what you know when I was your age.
And that's really the whole point of Countercurrents.
There's a lot of fake psychology that's cast about by liberals.
And one of the pieces of fake psychology is that Parents should never try to impose their values on their children.
They'll inevitably rebel.
And the people who put that out never fear that when they start drumming multicultural values into your kids that they're going to rebel.
The school system, the media, they want you to stop trying to indoctrinate your children because it'll make it easier for them to indoctrinate them.
But people still accept this fake liberal psychology.
Another piece of fake liberal psychology that's extremely damaging is the idea that we should never spare our children the pain of making mistakes.
They have to make their own mistakes.
They have to learn for themselves.
Now, if you reflect on what civilization is, civilization is a vast body of knowledge and practices that have been One, through painful trial and often highly costly errors.
And the whole purpose of education is to save people the time and trouble and pain of making mistakes, of literally and figuratively having to reinvent the wheel.
I created Counter Currents because I went through a long process of miseducation.
I went through many blind alleys into many traps.
Libertarianism, neoconservatism, paleoconservatism.
I was never on the left, thank God.
I was protected from that.
I was somehow spared that.
But I went through all these dead ends and blind paths and slowly and surely...
And laboriously worked my way into my present outlook, which brings us together in this room.
And it was a painful process.
It was akin to having to break and reset bones that had grown crooked.
It's something that I wanted to spare as many people as possible.
And so when I created Countercurrents, I was really thinking about my audience.
And my audience was my younger self.
And I know countercurrents probably seems hopelessly uncool to the Chan kids, but I was thinking of myself when I was 13 or 14, and I was thinking of the kind of stuff that would really excite me and that could save me a lot of time,
that could save me decades.
And after a few years of countercurrents being out there, I started hearing from people.
I've heard from kids in college.
Who say, yeah, I started reading countercurrents when I was 14 years old, and now I'm in college.
And boy, I keep saying to them, I wish I knew everything you know when I was your age.
So that's really the purpose of this.
It's directed at highly intelligent people, the people who are going to have a disproportionate influence on the future of the world.
And it's designed to...
Engage their imagination on a wide front.
It's not just narrowly about politics.
Countercurrents is about everything.
It's about the whole universe viewed from our point of view.
It is an attempt to reappropriate the entire tradition, which is ours anyway, and show that this is relevant to the struggle of white identity and white survival.
So countercurrents basically does three things.
It's a publishing company.
We publish more than 40 print volumes.
But it rapidly evolved into something else which is primarily a web scene.
I would say 70% of my work goes into the counter-currents web scene.
And that is really what has the most impact and that's why we put more effort into it.
People want free stuff online.
And we give them lots of free stuff.
And it's also, the third thing it is, it's a platform for me as a public intellectual.
It's where I sound off.
It's where I'm laying out my ideas and my views about passing events and sketching out a system of ideas, sketching out, first of all, a manifesto, a comprehensive defense of white ethno-nationalism,
and then eventually...
Some more philosophical, foundational works that I'm planning to do.
Right now, CounterCurrents reaches more than 150,000 unique visitors every month.
Thank you.
There's an astonishingly high level of engagement.
With those visitors, too.
Every visit averages about 10 or more page views.
Now, a very significant percentage of people who come to any website come there through a search engine thing and they take one look around and they flee, right?
And so, the ones who stay are reading 10, 12, 14 articles at a time.
So this is a very, very high degree of engagement for a website.
And I think it's in keeping with the nature of countercurrents.
We have a lot of long-form essays that we publish.
There's a lot of stuff that's thought-provoking.
There's a lot of stuff that might require you to reach for your thesaurus occasionally.
I really consciously aimed for an audience of people with IQs of 120 or above.
So what's next?
Well, more of the same but better, but also some different stuff, something very new.
First of all, I want to mention that we do have several countercurrents authors here, and they would be happy to sign their books if you wish to buy them.
Tito Perdue is here.
One of the pleasures that I get being a publisher is I can publish authors that I love, whose work that I love.
And Tito Perdue is one of the finest novelists writing today, and he has gone from the New York publishers to countercurrents because, well, he hasn't changed, but the publishing world has.
He's just gotten better.
F. Roger Devlin is here.
His book, Sexual Utopian Power, is one of our best-selling books, and he'd be happy to sign any books that you might buy of his.
Greg Hood, author of Waking Up for the American Dream, is skulking around here somewhere.
And, of course, I'm here.
I'll sign any of my books.
Also, Samantha Hilton at the back has some swag from my friend Charles Craft, a porcelain artist.
I forgot to bring it up.
He has these hilarious shitlord penance.
And I know a lot of people who consider themselves shitlords wouldn't like the rat to be their mascot.
But if you know Charles' sense of humor, it's hilarious.
So anyway, Samantha at the back, she can wave her hand.
She's selling some Charlie Craft swag as well.
My own work...
Right now, I'm finishing up a project that's been long in the making, which is a manifesto, the White Nationalist Manifesto.
And this is a short work.
I'm trying to keep it short.
I keep writing and then throwing things out.
And it's going to be about 30,000 words long, and it's a simple, comprehensive statement about why white Ethno-nationalism is the best form of politics and the most necessary form of politics today and why none of the other political options,
libertarianism, conservatism, left liberalism and all that other kind of stuff make any sense at all given the crisis that we face, the demographic crisis that we face as a people.
That'll be out this summer.
And after that, I'm working on something that draws from my doctorate in philosophy, my education in philosophy.
It's a book I'm calling Identity Politics, for short.
And Identity Politics really deals with the philosophical foundations, the foundational arguments necessary to defend ethno-nationalism.
And there are really two elements to this argument.
One is an argument about the moral permissibility, indeed the moral Obligatoriness of in-group preferences.
Of loving one's own and having a preference for one's own over outsiders, over strangers.
That is a central thing.
And the other thing that's very central is just an understanding of how language and culture are central to identity.
How ethnicity is central to identity and how political paradigms that ignore that are simply fake.
False, inauthentic, and actually destructive of real values, including the values of the people who think that these sorts of universalistic ideologies are justified and necessary.
So that's a long-term project of mine.
Another thing, and then I'm going to end, is something very, very new.
I'm launching a new web scene this summer.
It'll probably be after Countercurrent celebrates its 8th anniversary in June.
And it's called newnationalism.net.
And the new nationalism is a term that's used to describe the rising tide of populist nationalism in Europe and America.
It's a broad, umbrella-type term.
And it's a term that has a certain amount of the useful vagueness and broadness that the term alt-right used to have.
And I'm hoping that that can be a forum, a rallying point for people wanting to explore and discuss.
The new nationalism, white identity politics, without apologies here in North America and in Europe.
So stay tuned for that and I want to thank you for a very warm welcome.
This is my first time up on this stage, and I hope it won't be my last.
So thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Our next speaker, and the last one in this Reports from the Field Series, always makes me think of the brilliant French writer Guillaume Fay.
Some years ago he said,"Unless the generation that is in their twenties now acts, we are doomed." And I think he's right.
There is a certain time frame within which we must act, and it is those people who must act.
In order for us to have a future.
Patrick Casey heads Identity Europa, which I think is one of the most promising new organizations that I'm aware of.
It was my great pleasure and honor to address their first national conference, and I was tremendously impressed by the quality and commitment and the just fearful level of knowledge that these young men have.
And so please welcome Patrick Casey who will talk to you today about identity euro.
Thank you, Jared.
That was a very nice introduction.
So good morning, everyone.
I want to begin by thanking Mr. Taylor not only for throwing this amazing conference, which is my first American Renaissance, but also for inviting me to give this presentation.
I'm very honored to be speaking with you.
So my presentation today, as Mr. Taylor said, will be about Identity Europa.
It's the organization that I've been part of since about May of 2016 and the organization that I'm currently the executive director of.
Why don't you guys do me a favor and raise your hands if you've heard of Identity Europa.
It looks like just about everyone, so that's good.
Do me a favor and raise your hands if you're very familiar with what we do, what we're about, and you feel that you could talk about us with confidence.
Okay, so about half of you.
For the other half, I hope that you gain something from this.
So Identity Europa was founded in May of 2016 by Nathan D'Amigo.
It was founded to be an identitarian organization.
And the term identitarian is significant for a number of reasons.
Namely because it focuses on the central issue, which is identity.
And that's part of the reason why identitarianism is so useful, is because it transcends all of these other discussions and disagreements that we can have in the movement, right?
It focuses on what unites us, which again, is identity.
But a main reason why identitarianism is useful is because it's something new.
As such, it allows us to bypass the negative aspects of white nationalism that have repulsed otherwise sympathetic white people, such as neo-Nazism, crude fantasies about a race war, and the prevalence of poorly adjusted people.
So IU was founded with the goal of attracting intelligent, well-adjusted, and capable individuals.
I think we're unfairly treated as being elitist in a class sense, but some of our best guys are working class.
We have people all across the class spectrum.
We do have high standards, but the standards are, again, we look for quality of character.
We look for what goals someone has in life and what they're able to contribute to the movement.
The way I see it, there are good and bad reasons to be attracted to white identity politics.
The good reasons include a sense of duty, responsibility, and the desire to create a better world for our people.
The bad reasons include wanting to be a pariah, wanting to be transgressive for the sake of being transgressive, and wanting to cultivate an edgy identity to feel powerful.
So groups that have catered to the latter tend to be disorganized, active, and incompetent.
Moreover, people who gravitate toward white identity politics for those reasons only want to contribute when it's fun, glamorous, or exciting.
In other words, they're most interested in doing what they find personally gratifying rather than doing what needs to be done.
But in my experience, individuals who are drawn to the cause for the right reasons are the ones who are willing to contribute even when it's not fun, glamorous, or exciting.
They're focused on strategy, not self-indulgence.
These are exactly the people we need, and they're exactly the people that our organization attracts.
We need winners, not people who blame their personal failures on minorities or fantasize about their problems disappearing once society collapses.
And in order to ensure that we're attracting high-quality members, we need to maintain a high level of professionalism, good optics, and exclude poorly adjusted individuals from what we're building.
We should never sacrifice quality for quantity, and we don't.
And in my experience, there are far more well-adjusted people attracted to these views these days.
Perhaps it was different in the past, but it's not now.
So if you allow a few bad apples in, then you're going to scare away the people in this room, essentially, from joining organizations like ours.
So what exactly does Identity Europa do?
Well, we're engaged in two main endeavors, activism and social networking.
The former can be seen from the outside.
And it's partially why everyone thinks that everyone in Identity Europa are solely college students in their early 20s and so forth.
That isn't the case.
Whereas the latter, social networking, is generally only visible to those within the organization.
Thank you.
So we do activism for a number of reasons.
Activism spreads awareness of our organization and identitarianism overall.
And it attracts the people necessary to have a successful movement.
It also draws funding, since donors typically like to see that we're operating in the real world.
As Saul Alinsky noted, power is derived from two main sources, money and people.
And activism attracts both.
So as for the specifics of the activism we're involved with, Flyering constitutes probably the most frequent type of activism that our activists engage in.
I hear quite often from our detractors that, you know, what's flyering going to do?
You think we're just going to put up flyers and then find ourselves in the ethnostate?
The answer is no, it's going to take far more than flyering, but flyering is an integral part of our model, essentially.
Flyering is a great way to let fellow travelers know that we're in their neighborhood, that we're in their neck of the woods.
So we put up flyers generally on college campuses, but we'll flyer downtown areas, coffee shops, bookstores, pretty much anywhere that you can physically put up a flyer.
And not only do we put them up in person so that people walking by see our flyers, see Identity Europa, perhaps they decide to look us up online afterwards, but we also put We take pictures of the flyers that we put up and we put them on social media along with the location whether it's a university or the downtown area of a particular So that we're also letting people know,
people on social media who follow us know that we're in their area.
And quite often on our applications, I see that people say that they have seen a particular flyer or a particular action in a certain area.
And, you know, they thought they were alone in that area, right?
On one application, the applicant said, thank you for letting me know that I'm not alone in this liberal hell.
I think it was flyers that we put up at UC Berkeley.
So if we're getting messages like that, that's an indication that we're doing something right.
Flyering also gains media coverage, even though it's not particularly bombastic.
Just the appearance of flyers representing our ideas, representing identitarianism, is enough to make them go apoplectic.
And I'm sure that none of us in here are surprised, because colleges for them are supposed to be literally their safe spaces, their place where they don't have to think bad thoughts and, you know, be troubled by dissenting views, right?
So when they see a flyer that says"Defend your heritage" or"Let's become great again, Identity Europa," they know what it's about, and I think by now most of them are familiar with the organization.
So it does freak people out.
We generally get local media coverage of these things, but in some cases there have been large front page RT stories about white nationalist organization puts up flyers on college campus.
Generally what they do is they freak out and they end up giving us more publicity than we ever would have gotten simply by putting up the flyers.
So thank you to all of them for that.
I don't think they think these things through.
So we also do banner drops.
Banner drops, for those unaware, it involves creating a banner and dropping it, unfurling it somewhere, whether it's over the side of a bridge or perhaps some other location that, you know, it's going to be visible to onlookers.
One of my favorite banner drops that we did is one of the bridges, I believe it's the tunnel that connects Oakland to San Francisco.
I forgot the name of the bridge.
Essentially, the banner read"Danger Sanctuary City Ahead, Identity Europa" and it had skull and crossbones on either side.
The pictures are very great.
It's not just dropping it over the side of a bridge, it's this very large tunnel that you drive in to get there.
So that, of course, garnered international media coverage.
When you're hitting on issues that are sound from an identitarian perspective and also sound from a Trumpian perspective, you get a positive reception, right?
In a few of these articles, they called us the usual names.
I'm not going to say them, but the top comments were fairly supportive.
They were saying, well, you know, we do have an immigration problem, and these people are talking about it.
So that's definitely success.
Our activism is evolving at such an impressive rate that we're dropping banners, and I'm not even aware of it.
Apparently we dropped one yesterday that I didn't know that was happening, and just a 50-foot banner dropped in Florida.
It looked amazing.
So we also have done memorials, and we've been quite successful with those as well.
We created one for Justine Daymond.
Raise your hand if you're familiar with Justine Daymond.
Now, Richard Hand, if you're familiar with the story of the white American-Australian woman who was murdered...
Okay, I see hands coming off already.
Yeah. Most people aren't familiar with her by name, and that's okay.
But the story is particularly egregious, so I think most of us have heard of it.
So, for those unaware, this woman, Justine Daymond, was murdered...
By a diversity-hire Somali police officer named Mohamed Noor.
Now, at the time that we created this memorial, he had still been refusing to participate with authorities.
So everyone wondered if justice was ever going to be served in this case.
So we created a memorial to her outside of the 5th Precinct in Minneapolis, which is where Mohamed Noor was stationed.
And it was a very tasteful memorial.
There were a few...
There were some flowers, there were a few Identity Europa materials, and there was a framed picture of her as well.
It was very tasteful.
Now, if we had not included Identity Europa, it probably would have been seen by the establishment as a nice gesture.
Perhaps it's still a bit politically inconvenient for them, because Muhammad Noor was ultimately a servant of their government.
But because we used the Identity Europa materials, they referred to it as a hate shrine.
A hate shrine.
But fortunately for us, if you read the comment sections for the Fox News articles, for the BBC articles, everyone was very supportive.
They were like, I don't see what's hateful about this shrine, right?
And what is hateful about a shrine?
So we also do flash demonstrations.
We recently did one outside of, two outside of the South African Embassy.
You can see all of this on our Twitter account, on YouTube.
We will have videos of this as well.
One more thing that we really focus on is community service.
That is something that we've done a bit in the past, but I am really pushing our activists to do more of in 2018.
Our overall mentality and philosophy for activism and for our movement overall is that we, what do we want at the end of the day?
We want power.
And the thing, how do we get there, right?
The ultimate goal is for us or people with our views.
To have power.
I think everyone in here can agree with that.
But in order to do that, we have to first prove that we are worthy of wielding power.
And the alt-right had a lot of potential, but I think people got caught up in doing other things.
But we need to prove that we are legitimate, that our views, either us or people with our views, are worthy of having power.
And one of the best ways to do that is by making the lives of our people better.
Right? Activism, self-promotion, all of that is great, but...
I want identitarianism to be a force in society that is, like other nationalist movements, is capable of taking care of the poor, taking care of our people who have been marginalized by this anti-white system, by globalism, by all of the things that we are very well aware of.
Other than activism, we are very much engaged in social networking.
We have a very robust community all across the country with coordinators who are responsible for ensuring that weekly meetups happen.
People get together to do everything from go hiking, to train fitness, even just to go out to dinner.
We need to have a movement that has multiple levels of engagement.
After Charlottesville, there's been talk of, you know, many people did drop off because of the fears of doxing and so forth.
They thought it got too hot.
There have been some who have claimed that This was a good thing.
It was separating the wheat from the chaff, right?
We need to have a movement that consists not solely of people who have nothing to lose.
I feel like we shouldn't have to state that, but here we are, right?
So in Identity Europa, if you want to be an activist, if you want to be out there and you want to show your face, we have a place for you.
If you're in your 40s, if you have a family, if you can't show your face, we have a place for you as well, even if that's just at a local meetup.
But again, some of the people who are doing the most for us behind the scenes in terms of Of managerial tasks and administrative tasks.
These are people in their 40s and their 50s, people with great corporate jobs.
We need these people as well.
So if any of you, I've spoken with many of you this weekend, who are interested in joining Identity Europa, and if you are still interested by the end of this speech, which hopefully you are, I would like to strongly encourage you to apply and to join the movement,
the organization that we're creating.
We're only going to have one shot at this, so it's imperative that we all commit as much time, energy, and money as possible to the cause while we still can.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Well, thank you very much, Patrick.
Great talk.
Henry Wolf has just reminded me of an error I made.
This is something he does with great frequency.
And the error is the following.
Checkout time is at noon, so you have an hour's grace period.
Speaking of Henry Wolf, as you all know, putting together a conference like this takes an enormous amount of effort.
And this was, after I don't know how many conferences now, the conference which was, for me, the most relaxing.
Because I knew I could count on Henry, as well as many other people who will not go mention today, to really take all the load off my shoulders.
This was for me the easiest, most relaxed conference I've ever held.
And Henry Wolf has been both the brawn and the brains behind practically everything American Renaissance does these days.
And so I would like you to give a round of applause to my assistant.
Thank you.
We're going to have a short coffee break and then we'll have our final speaker.
Oh, I beg your pardon.
There is one final presentation to be made here.
This is Martin O'Toole, who kindly introduced me to begin with.
Thank you.
And I must begin by apologizing to Jared for appearing in this horrible outfit.
But my white shirts were hanging very safely at home where they're preserved in almost archival condition.
And they'll come out again next year.
But I was able to borrow a white shirt from a friend of mine, but after two days I thought it would probably be best for public hygiene if I didn't wear them this morning.
I'm here to flog, as they would say, a pseudo-scientific, pseudo-intellectual journal called the Occidental Quarterly.
The Occidental Quarterly is available in the back.
Harry Dase is waiving copies.
We have a few copies there.
He's been selling them, but for anybody who wants one for free, you can go back there and help yourself.
In addition, we're going to offer them at a discount price.
Now, I did learn from Mr. Bremelow about the, or rather from Lydia, about Trezine, and we have in both Trezine as well as on e-copies.
But if you want to subscribe to the hard copy, we're going to give that to you.
The first 10 people who pay Instead of the usual fee of $60, it'll be $30.
If you want to go online and subscribe to the online version, for those of you of the Z generation who prefer such things, you can get it that way.
What the Occidental Quarterly is, it's been out since fall of 2001.
Its editorial staff is largely PhDs, and it is a self-described journal of man, culture, and politics.
It's edited by Professor Kevin MacDonald, who may be known to a lot of you here today.
And it has been publishing without a break since that time.
It is the only journal of its kind, I think, in the world.
Certainly of the intellectual quality, of the materials that it produces and the like.
So I invite you to take a free copy and see if you want to subscribe.
And if you're motivated at this point to move immediately, give me a check.
Before I leave, and you can get it at half price.
Otherwise, we want every penny that you've got.
So thank you for your rapt attention, and we'll get back to the most important thing, that is a coffee break.
