=== White Advocate Explained (06:48) ===

[00:00:03]  Hello, I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance.
[00:00:07]  I care deeply about the future of Europeans wherever they have taken their culture, which is to say that I care about whites and Western civilization, and I believe our civilization can be carried forward only by the biological descendants of the people who created it.
[00:00:24]  Whites have the right, they have the duty to remain the majority in their own lands.
[00:00:30]  A hundred years ago, virtually all whites understood this.
[00:00:33]  Europe, the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, they were all rooted in a particular people, the people of Europe, and they could not have imagined being displaced by others.
[00:00:46]  Today, whites are supposed to welcome displacement.
[00:00:50]  We're supposed to believe that we should open our homelands to every kind of outsider in the name of diversity.
[00:00:57]  Of course, some of us know better.
[00:01:00]  Every day, more and more of us know better.
[00:01:03]  We know that diversity, for us, is slow suicide.
[00:01:07]  And we refuse to help build a future in which our own children will be minorities, perhaps hated minorities, in the nations our ancestors built.
[00:01:17]  Our refusal to commit suicide is, of course, healthy, normal.
[00:01:23]  People who don't commit suicide, whether as individuals or groups, are so obviously normal, there isn't even a word for them.
[00:01:31]  That's why there's no good word to describe us, just as there is no word to describe people who put their pants on one leg at a time or who eat when they're hungry.
[00:01:42]  These things are so normal, so universal, that no one ever thought to give them a name.
[00:01:48]  But whites are the only people for whom wanting to survive is not considered normal.
[00:01:55]  Think of it this way.
[00:01:57]  What do you call a black person who prefers black culture, listens to black music, and prefers to be around other black people?
[00:02:04]  A black person.
[00:02:06]  What do you call a white person who prefers Western culture, listens to classical music, and prefers to be around other white people?
[00:02:14]  A white supremacist.
[00:02:17]  Blacks who have a racial identity, or Hispanics, or Asians, or anyone else, are so normal that no one even notices.
[00:02:25]  This is true all around the world.
[00:02:28]  What do you call a Japanese who thinks Japan should stay Japanese?
[00:02:31]  Or an Israeli who thinks Israel should stay Jewish?
[00:02:35]  Or a Tibetan who doesn't want his country turning Chinese?
[00:02:39]  Or a Nigerian who wants Nigeria to stay black and Nigerian?
[00:02:44]  But what do you call a Frenchman who thinks France should stay French?
[00:02:49]  Oh, that's different.
[00:02:50]  He's a neo-Nazi.
[00:02:52]  Only for white people are normal, healthy, universal preferences considered some kind of sickness, and it is only in our case that we are forced to come up with a word to describe what should be so obvious and so normal that it shouldn't even require a word.
[00:03:10]  We're forced to do this because our opponents have words for us, and they're all slurs.
[00:03:17]  White supremacist is their favorite.
[00:03:20]  Anti-whites like it.
[00:03:21]  Because it's supposed to make you think of slavery and lynching.
[00:03:24]  They want to make us sound morally loathsome.
[00:03:28]  And then, of course, there's racist.
[00:03:31]  Remember, it's never racist for blacks to want to preserve black institutions or to want to spend their time with blacks or to think of themselves as African Americans.
[00:03:42]  That's healthy.
[00:03:43]  And that's why some people in our circles think the word racist can be rehabilitated to mean someone with a healthy racial consciousness, even a white person.
[00:03:54]  I think that'll never work.
[00:03:56]  Racist will always imply moral inferiority.
[00:04:00]  We have to choose our own words.
[00:04:03]  People who favor legal abortion don't let you call them baby killers.
[00:04:07]  They say instead that they support, quote, a woman's right to choose.
[00:04:12]  It's the same for us.
[00:04:13]  We need accurate, attractive words for who we are.
[00:04:17]  Some in our circles like the term"white nationalist." I don't.
[00:04:22]  For most people, it sounds dangerous.
[00:04:25]  It implies breaking the United States up into enclaves or even expelling non-whites.
[00:04:30]  And when you talk about Kurdish nationalists or Basque nationalists, there's always the whiff of violence.
[00:04:37]  Here are Kurdish nationalists defending their nation.
[00:04:41]  This is what the word nationalist means to a lot of people.
[00:04:46]  Some call themselves white separatists.
[00:04:49]  Separation could be voluntary, but it could also imply forcible separation.
[00:04:54]  That shocks people, too.
[00:04:56]  It's increasingly popular to talk about the alternative right or alt-right.
[00:05:01]  That's non-threatening, but I don't think it's accurate.
[00:05:04]  What we believe isn't an alternative in the way liberals talk about Alternative lifestyles.
[00:05:12]  Our positions are healthy and true and aren't an alternative.
[00:05:17]  Any more than being healthy is just an alternative to being sick.
[00:05:21]  Health is good and sickness is bad.
[00:05:24]  Period. They aren't alternatives.
[00:05:27]  Also, a correct understanding of race and of other questions sometimes included in the alternative right doesn't have to be either right or left.
[00:05:37]  You can be a lefty.
[00:05:38]  On the role of government, foreign aid, trade, welfare, plenty of other things and still have a sound view of race.
[00:05:46]  We should leave the door open to people of all political views who agree with us on race.
[00:05:53]  Identitarian is another term that's popular in our circles.
[00:05:57]  It sounds positive.
[00:05:58]  What could be wrong with having an identity?
[00:06:00]  The trouble is, the word doesn't exist in English.
[00:06:04]  It has to be explained.
[00:06:05]  It's best to use words people understand right away.
[00:06:10]  That's why I think the best term for us is"white advocate." It's clear what it means, and it isn't threatening.
[00:06:17]  It means we're speaking for whites, for our own people.
[00:06:21]  And an advocate is someone who makes a case without the slightest hint of violence.
[00:06:27]  Advocates support their positions with facts.
[00:06:32]  Advocacy doesn't commit us to any specific program or policy the word nationalist does.

=== Name We Chose (00:22) ===

[00:06:38]  It commits us only to a people, to advancing our legitimate interests, whatever they may be.
[00:06:46]  Different expressions become popular in unpredictable ways, and there's no telling what will catch on.
[00:06:52]  But we need a name for ourselves that we have chosen, not one that people who hate us have chosen.
