Diversity Destroys Trust 00:03:47
Hello, I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance.
Diversity is America's greatest strength, right?
I won't even begin to list the politicians, academics, and journalists who say this.
And they mean all kinds of diversity: language, religion, culture, sexuality, but especially race.
Of course, when you ask why exactly is it so great to have 36 million Mexicans living here, or how is it that 6 million Muslims make our lives better, you won't get an answer.
You'll just get yelled at for asking the question.
You won't get an answer because diversity is not a strength, it's a weakness.
Without racial diversity, there would be no race riots, no dangerous inner cities.
No Black Lives Matter.
No affirmative action.
No worries about whether there are too many Asians at Harvard or not enough Hispanics on television.
No racial discrimination lawsuits.
No diversity training.
There would also be no white privilege.
No white guilt.
No racial conflict or tension at all.
Can you imagine such a peaceful, unified, carefree America?
There would be fewer Mexican restaurants, and we might win fewer Olympic gold medals, but I think we could live with that.
And look what racial diversity does to politics.
The Democrats have become the non-white party.
90 to 95 percent of blacks and 70 percent of Hispanics and Asians vote Democrat.
And Republicans are becoming the white people's party.
A veteran political consultant tells me privately he thinks that in 10 years, 80% of white people will vote Republican.
Racial diversity means that elections are a racial headcount, not a choice between different ways to run the country.
Robert Putnam of Harvard is one of many researchers to find that racial diversity destroys trust.
He found that people who live in a racial, ethnic mishmash like Los Angeles don't trust their neighbors.
They don't trust their politicians.
They have few close friends.
They don't get involved in the community.
They don't do volunteer work.
And they are less likely to vote.
About the only things they do more of is go on protest marches and watch television.
Researchers find the same thing all around the world.
The more diversity, racial, religious, tribal, the less people trust each other.
Diversity destroys trust.
With enough diversity, people stop having much of anything in common.
Ultimately, diversity destroys culture.
Here's just one example.
Take the buildings for the three branches of our government.
This is the United States Supreme Court building.
This is the executive mansion, known as the White House.
And this is the legislative branch, the Congress and the Senate.
These buildings could have been built only in a country that draws its culture from Europe and ultimately from Greece and Rome.
Here is the National Gallery.
And here's even a government office building, the Department of Agriculture.
Diversity's Cost to Authenticity 00:04:55
It looks like a Greek temple.
These buildings went up before we decided diversity was a strength.
We knew we were a European people and we were proud of it.
Now, how long will it be before our increasingly non-white country starts calling this white supremacist architecture?
Now, imagine what a new Congress or Supreme Court building would have to look like to satisfy black and brown and yellow people.
It would have to look Like the Supreme Court of Brazil.
Or maybe the Parliament Building of Bangladesh.
Or the Opera House in Taichung, Taiwan.
Or the United Nations Building.
These buildings could be anywhere or nowhere.
Countries that don't celebrate diversity can still have a national architecture.
The swimming pool at the Ritz-Carlton in Saudi Arabia looks like the inside of a mosque.
Even Saddam Hussein's palaces in Baghdad had aesthetic roots in his own culture.
The Mongolian parliament looks like it belongs there, especially with those horsemen out in front.
And this is the Korean president's house, known as the Blue House.
Back in America, this is what happens when we build something completely divorced from European tradition.
This is the African-American Museum in Washington, D.C. It doesn't look like anything.
And this happens to every part of the culture when the center falls out.
What will the multiculties put in the National Gallery?
The most beautiful art or affirmative action art?
Music, movies, drama.
They'll have to satisfy everyone, which means they won't satisfy anyone.
Who listens to classical music?
White people and some Asians.
Well, Oakland, California, used to have a famous symphony orchestra.
But it went bust when Oakland became, well, how do the lefties put it?
Vibrant. Now, why are so many American movies violent special effects extravaganzas?
Because they are made for a world market, the least common denominator.
An important part of the world market is China.
And already in 2016, the Wall Street Journal was reporting that Hollywood is under pressure to put more Chinese actors in the spotlight.
And it's even worse when you have the whole world living in your country.
Nothing survives this churning and mixing.
Multiculturalism does not mean that authentic national traditions exist side by side.
It means all traditions are worn away and destroyed.
I support true diversity.
I want Japan to remain distinctly and proudly Japanese.
I want the same for Nigeria.
Every culture, no matter how strange it may seem to us, is beautiful to its own people and deserves to survive.
Could this way of life, for example, survive diversity, multiculturalism, and mass immigration?
No. And ours can't either.
What Americans call diversity is the destruction of everything that is rooted, that is authentic, that rises out of a shared heritage.
Genuine diversity means preserving what is rooted, authentic, and the common heritage of a distinct people.
Americans understand this when other people are threatened.
We don't want New Guinea, for example.
To be swamped by outside influences and lose its uniqueness.
What we refuse to realize is that we are being swamped.
Everything we love, everything we have built will be lost if we turn our country over to people who are not us.
Ultimately, we will lose our very selves.
If non-white immigration continues and every institution in America promotes intermarriage, In 200 years, there'll be no more white people.
There will still be Asians and Africans and Amerindians in the world because most of them live in countries that don't celebrate diversity.
But we will disappear.
And our culture will disappear along with us.
That is the ultimate threat of diversity.
