Time Text
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the latest episode of Radio Renaissance.
I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance, and with me is my usual co-host.
And the date is April 13th, year of our Lord, 2021.
And we'd like to start with a reader comment about a previous podcast and a reader question.
Last podcast raised the issue of whether trees can be racist.
And for those of you who are curious as to who might think such a thing, all you have to do is tune in to the last episode of Radio Renaissance, you'll get a full explanation.
But the astute listener wrote in to say, did you know that canals can be racist too?
He notes that the Suez Canal was built by white people for the express purpose of avoiding the entire continent of Africa and its millions of black bodies.
He notes that according to Wikipedia, a canal connecting the Mediterranean to the Bred Sea and avoiding 5,500 miles around Africa was successfully built and began navigation in 1854 and it was built by white French Ferdinand de Lesseps with funding primarily from white people.
The fact that the canal makes world commerce much more efficient by making it faster and much less costly does not alter the fact that it is a monument to white supremacy and can be seen from outer space.
So, when was that built again?
1854.
1854.
So that predates the building of the Panama Canal by almost 50 years.
Oh yeah, oh yeah.
Well, the Panama Canal is a much more difficult thing.
Of course.
Yes, yes.
And at one time, de Lesseps was trying to build a canal in Panama.
He wanted a sea-level canal.
But there's just too much Panama in the way.
And the Americans that finally did it, they did it with locks so you go up and go down.
You just could not remove all that bedrock.
But did you know that it's the Chinese who are widening the canal and improving the canal?
Yes, who is the gaining superpower and who's the waning superpower?
Well, we also have a reader question.
This is, I think, as much a rhetorical question as anything else.
Why is it that races and racial groups are said to be social constructs but not dog breeds?
Is there a good reason for this?
Go ahead and answer that one.
Well, there is no good reason for this.
No, none whatsoever.
And I still don't understand why, if race is a social construct, which we're always told it is, why can't we just declare ourselves to be one thing or another?
Sex, or now that it's called gender, is a social construct, and I can claim to be a woman, I can claim to be a lesbian, I can claim to walk into ladies' locker rooms and say, express my lesbian tendencies, but no, race, race, even though it's a social construct, you cannot claim to be anything that you are not.
Now, this question will come up later on in our little podcast here, but I'm afraid I have to begin this episode of Radio Renaissance with a very unfortunate story having to do with what happened on Sunday in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota.
I suspect some of our listeners are already all too familiar with what happened, but a white police officer shot a 20-year-old black man by the name of Daunte Wright, D-A-U-N-T-E.
Now, it's one of those situations in which NBC is recklessly saying that Daunte Wright was killed because he was driving while black.
Oh, what rubbish.
He was driving with expired plates.
And that can get you pulled over no matter what your race.
And my suspicion is that when they decided to pull him over, they had no idea that it was Daunte behind the wheel.
Turns out he has a warrant out for his arrest.
He'd been brandishing a gun.
He'd missed his Zoom court case.
And so this guy knew that if he stuck around and permitted himself to be arrested, he would be in a tight spot.
So he resisted arrest, jumped into his car, and was about to take off after a struggle.
I mean, you can see the video cam.
I'm sorry, the body cam video.
And Kim Potter, a 26-year-old veteran, instead of using what she thought was her taser to subdue him, she fired one round from her service pistol.
And poor Dante was killed.
So, of course, now it really is the same old story.
A black person who has committed a crime is resisting arrest and things spin out of control.
But in this case, there is clearly fault on the side of the woman.
As usual, we wish to know what the circumstances are, but apparently you can hear her in the video expressing chagrin.
She shot the guy.
A great chagrin in four-letter words after having thought that she'd used her taser, but no, she pulled the trigger of her service weapon.
But anyway, as usual, the country goes up into conniptions, especially Minneapolis.
They rioted for two nights, more millions and millions of dollars worth of business.
Some of the same businesses were looted and burned as were looted and burned the last time.
Furthermore, a vigil for Duonte in Portland turned into a riot.
As the police noted, people in the crowd were stealing rocks and landscaping bricks and other property to use as weapons against the police.
Any excuse for a riot?
Portland has just gone absolutely round the bend.
But, to return to Brooklyn Center, The city manager, Kurt Bogunay, who is black, he said that he would not fire officer Kim Potter immediately and that she should get due process.
Well, that's clearly unreasonable.
And so Mayor Mike Elliott, also black, fired him.
Fired the city manager.
Can't be talking about due process for a white supremacist lady killer.
And the police chief was also white, was going to be fired, and so he resigned.
And so Kim Potter has resigned rather than be fired.
It's all very sorry and very bad.
And also Brooklyn Center Mayor Mike Elliott He says that officials have asked that the thin blue line flag flying outside the police department be removed.
It could be a provocation.
So, what if they fly the American flag?
Can you take that down, too?
Now, I thought that Barack Obama's commentary was, among many, that we're purely idiotic.
Did you know that our former president has unbosomed himself of an opinion about this?
He says, the shooting shows, and I quote, just how badly we need to reimagine policing and public safety in this country.
No.
It doesn't show that at all.
What it shows is some woman made a mistake.
Now, was her training at fault?
I'm really curious about this.
26 years of experience?
How many times do you reckon she has pulled a revolver?
Not a revolver.
Pulled a pistol.
How many times she pulled a taser?
I bet.
Less than five, if that.
Yes, probably very rarely.
Also, I hate to say this for all the lady officers out there, but she probably had absolutely no confidence in being able to overpower this Duante physically, and so she reached for something, some assistance, whether a taser or a weapon, rather than grapple with him the way a man would have.
She's been in the force for 26 years, so she's obviously in her mid-40s.
Correct.
At least I would think so.
I don't know.
So again, you know, for men, you start to see physical decline and your strength and your ability.
I mean, it's a heat of the moment situation.
The guy's trying to drive his car away.
And he's fighting to get, they're trying to cuff him and he's fighting.
Exactly.
So again, it's a heat of the moment situation.
This is probably somebody maybe had been a resource officer at high schools.
Again, I don't know her CV, but the point is this.
How often do you want to even, if you're a male officer who's virile, who's strong, that was Chauvin.
We saw what happened to him when he tried to put George Floyd and restrain him.
It can be a physical confrontation.
Exactly.
It's a physical confrontation that a woman is likely to lose.
Now these are statistics that you rarely see, But women officers are more likely to shoot suspects than male officers, for obvious reasons.
They can't wrestle them into submission.
And for obvious reasons, it's time that we retire this Quentin Tarantino view that women can kick as much butt, and keep this PG, Mr. Taylor, as men.
That these women can magically throw a spin kick, heel kick, super kick, and they're going to fall over.
That's not reality.
Well, but I can bet you any amount of money, this is not a subject that's going to come
up.
She did that not because she's a woman, but because she's a white supremacist.
You know that.
It's all white supremacy at work, not this failed attempt to turn women into men.
Have you seen any, any conversation about Justine Noor in this?
Was that her name?
Has anybody brought up that shooting from 2017 at all?
No, not in the context of this Brooklyn Center thing.
No, Justine Damon, you mean.
Justine Damon, yeah.
And this Mohamed Noor guy.
Correct, that's right.
The guy that shot him.
Well, he's doing hard time.
He's in the pokey for 10 years.
Now, I wonder if she'll end up in the pokey.
There was an interesting case, a somewhat similar case, In San Francisco, Fruitvale Station.
Yes.
It was made into a movie, I believe.
Yeah, Ryan Coogler, the guy who went on to direct your favorite movie, Black Panther.
Yes, a classic.
But we shouldn't get too wound up with this, but he shot a guy and he mistakenly reached for his pistol rather than his taser.
That's right.
I think he went to the big house too.
I don't recall correctly.
Those of you who saw the movie must know better than I. In any case, This, of course, this is right, this is 10 miles from where Derek Chauvin is being tried.
And so here we have rioting and looting and demonstrations and people attacking the police and what defense for him, Mr. Nelson, asked that the jury be sequestered so they not be exposed to this kind of news.
The judge said, no, we're not going to sequester the jury because this was not in reaction to a jury verdict.
If it had been reaction to jury verdict, he might have agreed to protect them for this kind of information.
But in any case, they will be sequestered once they start deliberating, which is a good thing.
They need to be kept aside.
They don't want them talking to their neighbors and their husbands and wives, but we'll see.
And apparently, according to the way the trial is going, the defense should end its case sometime next week.
I'm sorry, sometime this week, I beg your pardon.
By Friday, it should be over.
And on Monday, they should begin deliberating.
Yeah, pretty interesting.
In any case, part of one of the results, one of the many, many, many earth-shaking results of the Fentanyl case is that people are now, retailers are now deciding not to call the police for low-level crimes.
We've seen a number of cities already institute this.
This was in the Minneapolis Star Tribune.
The headline read, Retailers Urge to Rethink Police Calls for Low-Level Crimes.
And this is after George Floyd's death.
Again, if you look at all the statistics, you see that 2020, Mr. Taylor, is shaping out to be an increasingly violent year compared to what was happening.
But once George Floyd died there in Minneapolis, everything changed.
The numbers are just extraordinary to look at.
Just extraordinary to look at, and what this article Talks about is how
After a corner store clerk reported he had used a fake $20 bill, that of course is George Floyd, which is a non-violent offense so low level that police don't usually take people to jail for it.
Now as trial of his death continues to unfold, criminal justice reform experts and diversity specialists, which is one of the more burgeoning fields out there, ladies and gentlemen, all of you in school studying for a STEM degree, go ahead and change course.
Go ahead and jump into the diversity specialist field and you can renounce your whiteness all in the same breath.
You think I'm joking?
I'm not.
They're hoping that the case is going to prompt retailers from small businesses to major chains.
Your chains, your Walmart, your CVS's, your Walgreens, your Targets.
To reassess how they treat black and other minority customers and how they can handle loss prevention cases more equitably.
Wait, wait, wait.
Only minority customers?
This is the second paragraph.
So if you're talking about the inverted pyramid, again, let me read that again.
To reassess how they treat black and other minority customers and how they can handle Loss prevention cases more equitably.
So if I walk in and I want to pay for something with an $18 bill, then they can call the police.
They can!
And they should!
Because I'm a white guy.
You don't classify as part of that effort to amend and atone for all the inequities that people of color have suffered.
Here's the great line.
Retailers, they point out, are on the front lines of racial of racial justice in their own stores. Who cares if shrinkage
happens? Who cares if you have a point where everything has to be put behind plexiglass? Of
course, we know plexiglass is the ultimate symbol of racism, so it has to come down. If
you're ever in a Walmart, ladies and gentlemen, and you're on an aisle where there are ethnic
hair products behind plexiglass, go ahead and head to your car immediately.
You don't want to be shopping at that Walmart, and you probably want to reevaluate why you were in that area to begin with.
But the point is now, we have articles such as this, and listen to this quote from Casey Pittman Claytor.
She's a sociology professor at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, who has studied racial profile in retail settings.
Here's what she says.
While interactions with the police can be fairly infrequent, everyone shops.
When black people are asked about the context where they are treated unfairly due to their race, shopping in a store ranks above all other settings, including interactions with the police.
Thus, several companies, including Twin Cities-based Target and Best Buy, have shared their plans to not only diversify hiring, They've made massive financial contributions to black-owned businesses and organizations focused on fighting inequality, but they're not going far enough.
They need to do more to create and enforce policies to address how racial bias negatively impacts customers.
Again, part of this really aggressive growth field of diversity and inclusion consultants, Jesse Ross says this, quote, I don't think they've really dealt with and have been honest about dealing with it.
It's oh, we're gonna put out money and oh, we're gonna give out a couple of bonuses and all that sort of thing, but we are not really addressing the very grassroots level issues that could probably prevent so many other things.
Like a George Floyd happening, end quote.
In other words, just stop enforcing the law.
Exactly.
Okay.
Well, you know, we were going to talk about this later, but I think there's a perfect lead in to what you tell me is likely to happen in Baltimore.
Well, it's not likely to happen in Baltimore.
This is what's happening under the state's attorney, Marilyn Mosby.
Hmm.
So Baltimore, we know, has consistently been one of the most violent cities in not just the United States.
Mr. Taylor, the entire world.
It's a world competitor.
Exactly.
And, well, a year ago, as the coronavirus began to spread across Maryland, Baltimore state's attorneys stopped prosecuting drug possession, prostitution, minor traffic violations, and other low-level offenses.
A move aimed at curbing COVID-19 spread, you know, behind bars.
So I remember when this happened.
I remember when they did this.
Couldn't put the poor dears in close contact with each other.
Exactly.
So this shift, we're seeing many prosecutors in many other cities do the same thing.
We're seeing this most notably in places where these Soros-funded DAs.
I'm thinking about Larry Krasner in Philadelphia.
I'm thinking about the Weatherman's son in San Francisco, Chessie Bowden.
Yes, Chessie Bowden.
Yeah, exactly.
The Los Angeles, the ex-cop now who's the District Attorney in Los Angeles doing the exact same thing.
That's right.
So we have this now.
This shift apparently didn't just reduce jail populations.
In Baltimore, nearly all categories of crime have since declined, confirming to Mosby what she and criminal justice experts have argued for years.
Crackdowns on quality-of-life crimes are not necessary for stopping more serious crime.
Wait, I don't understand.
I mean, if you don't arrest people for crime, then crime rates will go down.
Exactly!
Exactly!
Bingo!
Thank you for finding... Thank you, Captain Obvious.
That's nowhere in the article.
Yes.
Thank you.
Bing, bing, bing, bing, bing.
So again, Mosby announced she was making her pandemic experiment permanent, saying Baltimore.
This was in the end of March.
So it's been a few weeks since we've had the opportunity to speak to everyone, Mr. Taylor.
So again, this is a story that I thought was very important.
You know, again, if you're not arresting anybody, Well, crime rates are going to go down.
You are going to reduce the jail population.
So on Friday, the end of March, she announced that the experiment is now permanent, saying Baltimore, for decades, notorious for runaway violence and rough policing, has become a case study in criminal justice reform.
In the 12 months since she ordered scale back enforcement, violent crime is down 20% and property crime has declined 36%.
Homicides inched down, though Baltimore still has one of the highest homicide rates among cities nationwide.
It barely went down, and by the way, Baltimore is a city that is hemorrhaging population.
It was, I believe, at the end of 2010, the census, at about 625,000.
I've read reports where they're expecting it to drop by about By about 30% to about 590,000 people, which is incredible to see that type of population.
Well, you know, that's true, too.
If everybody disappears, then crime rates fall, too.
If the place becomes so miserable, no one wants to live there.
So researchers at Johns Hopkins University found sharp reductions in calls to police complaining about drugs and prostitution.
Well, when all you have left are Those doing drugs and engaging in prostitution, Mr. Taylor, why are you going to call the police when you're engaging in said vice and said activity?
Okay, well, gosh, sounds like a great place.
If I ever get tired of Northern Virginia, that's the first place I'm going to move to.
The Fraternal Order of Police, they did not respond to questions for this article, but again, Baltimore is one of the few big cities where violence has not increased.
But again, if you're not arresting anybody, if you have a very low clearance rate for non-fatal shootings and fatal shootings, exactly who exactly are you arresting?
It's quite incredible, this process we're seeing all around the country of, as you say, these Soros-funded DAs simply not prosecuting these quality of life crimes.
And they don't seem to have any idea that if you'd stop prosecuting people for shoplifting, people are going to make a living shoplifting.
And never forget this story we had just the other day on, well, I guess it was a couple of months ago.
CVS is just closing Lickety Split in San Francisco because people walk in clear at the shelves.
If you can't stop people from doing that, you can't engage in retail.
We didn't get a chance to talk about this story, but in Philadelphia there was a guy, a black guy, who was doing a documentary about the just explosion of gun violence in the city.
He was shot and killed while filming a scene and it turns out that As they're trying to arrest and prosecute more and more of these people that they apprehend and arrest, the DA is basically saying, no, just let him go.
Just let him go.
And so their conviction rates have never been lower, though arrest rates, conversely, have never been higher.
Ladies and gentlemen.
That's really encouraging for the police, you know.
Why bother?
Why bother?
Especially if you become a headline, you can lose your life or your career.
At least Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas is apparently capable of seeing the obvious.
He says we're not jailing enough people.
And he says the increase in crime has come along with a drop in incarceration rates.
And major metropolises throughout the nation saw a 33% increase in homicides in 2020, which is an absolute record.
That's never happened before in the United States.
Such a leap And the combined state and federal imprison rate of 419 sentenced prisoners for 100,000 residents in 2019 was the lowest in prison rates since 1995.
residents in 2019 was the lowest in prison rates since 1995.
That was also a record crime year, by the way, 1995.
From 2009 to 2019.
29%!
Does that have anything to do with the increase in crime?
Oh no!
for black americans 29 percent 29 percent does that have anything to do with increasing crime
oh no it fell 24 percent for hispanics and 12 percent for whites and in 2019 the
imprisonment rate for blacks reached its lowest level since 1989
Now, does this possibly have anything to do with the fact that crime is rising?
That you'd even dare ask such a question means you should be thrown into the deepest, darkest dungeon imaginable.
And Senator Tom Cotton draws the obvious conclusion and is being, of course, pilloried for this.
In the meantime, we hear that the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, CDC, on Thursday declared racism a serious public health threat.
They're not worried about feral blacks shooting people.
It's racism.
The director, the directress, we should probably call her, is Rochelle Walensky, and she said, To build a healthier America for all, we must confront the systems and policies that have resulted in the generational injustice that's given rise to racism and ethnic health inequality.
So she will focus on taking action.
Just what it is, I'm not sure, but she says the CDC will disburse new funding to address COVID-19 disparities.
Now, according to the American Public Health Association, More than 170 cities, counties, and public health agencies in the United States have declared racism a public health problem.
So get on the bandwagon, CDC.
CDC is the only top outfit that's going to do that.
Well, will there be a warp speed vaccine program to inoculate white people against racism?
Hopefully Johnson & Johnson is not producing it.
Well, but part of this, of course, is such lunatic stuff because, all right, apparently in COVID-19 there are higher rates for non-whites, although the Asian rate is very close, In terms of infection rates, deaths, and all of that.
But, if you really look at some of the health disparities so-called, white people don't always turn out at the top.
Asians, for example, live longer than white people.
And Hispanics do, too.
Yes, they do.
This is one of those surprises that nobody ever talks about.
It's really this black difference that everybody's in up in arms about.
But, you know, we've got to turn the country inside out to change it left, right, back, and forward.
And there's a hospital in Boston that's going to start doing that.
This is Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston.
Brigham and Women's Hospital.
I wonder if they accept men.
I suppose they must these days.
It will offer preferential care based on race.
Race explicit interventions.
It's going to allocate medical resources in order to, quote, comprehensively confront structural racism.
Now what will this involve?
They say it's going to include cash transfers and discounted or free care for blacks and Hispanics.
And they acknowledge the program might elicit legal challenges.
But they encouraged other institutions to follow their lead.
We encourage other hospitals to proceed confidently on behalf of equity and racial justice without backing provided by, with backing provided by recent White House executive orders.
In other words, they're saying, if you get sued, you should say, Uncle Joe told me to do this.
Uncle Joe said we've got to assess our policies and behavior top to bottom.
Sleepy Joe says do it, so it's okay.
Now, I wonder, they're talking about financial things here, but are they, when they do triage, If they say, okay, this person has a bad case of something, it takes priority, are they going to work race into the decision?
I don't see why not.
Well, I mean, again, we've talked about this before, but how does this jive, how does this go with the Hippocratic Oath?
Well, the Hippocratic Oath says you do no harm.
That's basically it.
But I don't think it says you can't choose which patients are more deserving than others.
It doesn't say you can't prioritize patients.
Yes, you're right.
It never occurred to Hippocrates that black lives would matter this much.
And white lives would matter this little.
This would be so insignificant.
Yeah, white lives.
Gosh, who needs them?
Now, as all part of this exciting stuff, the University of Illinois has gone woke in a most remarkable way.
Well, it's a typical way, I should say.
I shouldn't be surprised by this.
The University of Illinois at Chicago said that its public safety advisories to the campus when something goes wrong will no longer identify a suspect's race.
And of course it's going to stop doing that so as to stop perpetuating negative stereotypes.
They consulted all sorts of members of the university community and decided that although the advisories are designed to inform our community members so that they can change their behavior as necessary, To be conducive to the recommended safety measures in the UIC campus area, they defended this.
In other words, they say, we're going to alert you about something that's going on so you may change your behaviors as necessary.
I take that to be, be on the lookout for the perp.
You'd think so.
Now, what university was this again?
This is University of Illinois at Chicago.
At Chicago.
So now Chicago is a pretty diverse place.
It is.
And I have a guess.
I, you know, it's just pure, pure speculation on my part, but I imagine when the public safety advisories go out, there's a certain pattern.
You've always said not to speculate.
You're right.
You've always said.
I take it back.
I take it back.
You said never assume anything.
Never assume anything.
But in any case, they're not going to perpetuate stereotypes.
So although the students are supposed to change their behaviors as necessary, they're not going to know the race of the perp.
And our goal, they say, is to make everyone feel welcome and safe on the UIC campus.
I guess that includes criminals!
Well, it's just like criminals in Baltimore.
Anybody partaking in prostitution and drugs, they don't have to call anyone because it's all anyone's doing now.
So if no one's a criminal, if everyone's a criminal, no one's a criminal, or vice versa.
Everyone would do it.
Do you remember one of the first universities in the country that Instigated such a platform when it came to advising.
I believe Minnesota did.
University of Minnesota.
Golden Gophers.
That's right.
They said, no, no, we can't express the race.
You'd be on the lookout, but it's only a man.
Now, what I want to know is, are they going to stop talking about the sex of the perp?
They eventually have to.
Of course!
Exactly.
I mean, if there's a negative stereotype when it comes to criminality, sex is number one, I'd say.
They've got to stop.
And, you know, if it's a tall man, then that's a negative stereotype.
Tall people, you know?
We haven't gotten that far yet, but we're probably getting there, you know?
Negative stereotypes, got to get rid of them.
Got to get rid of them completely.
But I think that I diverted you at a crucial moment when you're talking about Baltimore, because just as yet another example of Baltimore heading in the direction of, well, shall we call it maybe San Salvador?
Baltimore is one of those cities with its proximity to D.C.
and its incredible infrastructure.
You're probably right.
You're probably right.
No, I mean, Baltimore is one of those cities with its proximity to D.C. and its incredible
infrastructure.
You've got these beautiful buildings that were built during the time of Mencken.
And it's so close you'd think that you'd start to see a lot of gentrification going on.
I think that in the census that's about to come out, we're going to see the exact opposite.
I have a feeling Baltimore is going to be close to 80% black.
I think you've seen a mass exodus of white people.
I think you've seen a mass exodus of pretty much anyone that isn't black.
And there are consequences of that.
What happens when you see a city that is completely dominated by black elected officials, black appointed officials?
I saw this one article and I thought I'd share it.
Thought I'd share.
I'm all ears.
It's that time of year, it says this, one item for the mayor's to-do list, fixing Baltimore's rutted roads.
Now, that's one of the primary jobs of local government.
What are your taxes going to do?
Improve infrastructure, right?
You'd think.
So at least a third of the city streets are so cracked, weathered or rutted, they are considered substandard
according to the engineering consultant firm, A. McFoster and Wheeler.
When asked to rate the quality of street maintenance in Baltimore, only 26% of residents said the roads
are good or excellent.
I guess the other 74% were partaking in Mayor and Mosby's decision to not prosecute anyone
that even care.
They're so high and they're enjoying the, they're enjoying, they're enjoying prosecuting.
I'm too hard on him.
So, here we go.
Only about 2% of Baltimore's 4,300 miles of roads are resurfaced each year.
The city needs to pave at five times that rate to keep up with the deterioration of its streets, according to the budget offers.
It's getting worse and worse.
So, city crews are resurfacing significantly fewer total miles than they did even a decade ago.
Now, a decade ago, I'm trying to think, was the white guy, was he the mayor at that point?
I've forgotten when they last said that.
They had a brief shining moment when they had a white guy.
Yeah, and then he tried to run for the Democrat nomination.
I think he had an Irish band.
They kind of lampooned him in the show The Wire.
Just a couple more facts.
$600 million dollars slated to come to Baltimore under the massive COVID-19 relief bill, which was just passed by Congress.
They're hoping that they can use and divert some of that money, especially in disinvested neighborhoods.
Disinvested.
The entire city is now disinvested, even though you have one of the largest per-pupil spending in the entire nation.
I believe it's third or fourth.
In terms of per-pupil spending.
Remember a few weeks ago... Certainly on public school.
Exactly.
Exactly.
We talked about this about probably four and a half weeks ago.
The one school where the guy had, what, had been to... I can't remember the exact number of classes, the GPA.
He had a GPA of 1.3 or something.
Yes, and he was right in the middle of his class.
He was right in the middle of the class.
He was right in the middle of the class.
So, point is this, you've got a city, Baltimore needs to repave 400 miles of roads a year to keep pace with the projected lifespan of city streets.
Heavy rainfalls have hampered repaving for two years.
Potholes are everywhere.
You've got a situation that basically You know, it reminds me of, I think, the best piece you ever wrote, and that was African Armist.
It was 2005.
You wrote about Hurricane Katrina and what happens when civilization, that we believe to be what we've created, and we are going to bequeath to our progeny, to our posterity.
Once that goes away, the people who actually created and sustain that environment, what happens?
Well, things change.
Let's just put it that way.
Things change.
Oh, dear.
Well, and this on top of not prosecuting what they consider low-level crimes.
I wonder at what point aggravated assault will be considered a low-level crime.
I mean, it's ratcheting up.
But, you know, panhandling, public defecation.
You're talking about San Francisco now.
Well, I'm sure it's the same in Baltimore.
They've got to prosecute that stuff.
But anyway.
Well, do you remember, do you remember Biden's infrastructure plan?
It's on track to be voted perhaps a $2.3 trillion infrastructure so-called plan and the biggest item is for all folks home and public housing and billions for science teaching at historically black colleges and universities.
No black Marie Curie or Isaac Newton will be overlooked, but it's also including, and I think this is interesting, money for diversifying neighborhoods.
What it would do is change zoning laws to end single-family home neighborhoods and allow for multiple-unit affordable or low-income rental housing.
So, where I live, you know, that's just what we need.
Turn on every tree.
Every tree needs to go.
And low-income, cut them all down and build lovely, affordable, low-income rental housing.
Now, according to a fact sheet on this infrastructure bill, for decades, exclusionary zoning laws like minimum lot sizes, Mandatory parking requirements and prohibitions on multifamily housing have inflated housing and construction costs and locked families out of areas with more opportunities.
There you go.
So, if you live in a nice neighborhood, if this so-called infrastructure bill passes, What could happen is a great change to the regulations in your neighborhood.
Now, to my astonishment, this law, if it passes, will not abolish these things outright, but what it will do is offer $20 billion in tax credits to outfits, localities that decide that they're going to end their zoning regulations.
So at least it's a bribery.
It's a pure carrot and not a stick approach.
But this is, I mean, that's the thin edge of the wedge.
There are going to be cities that are going to say, wow, you know, we need to go for that.
And so they will change the neighborhoods and we know what will arrive as a consequence.
So, look out folks, this is the new conception of infrastructure.
I mean, I sometimes forget Biden's president and that basically every crazy idea percolating in academia right now, whether it's that big new idea you go back nine, ten years ago, people looked at the idea of the new Jim Crow, Michelle Alexander's book, that now is gospel truth to all these people.
And it is dictating criminal justice reform, Damn the consequences of what Tom Cotton pointed out, of what happens.
That's right.
Who cares?
Turn them loose!
It doesn't matter if they're loose.
All the other books that have come out about the history of redlining, about mortgage rates being disproportionate by race, every crazy idea, you now have this idea put out by Buttigieg.
Is that the way to even pronounce the Transportation Secretary's name?
That's good enough for me.
Yeah, but they're saying that, you know, highways are racist because of the way that they were zoned and they were built and the way they tore down black communities and neighborhoods.
I mean, basically we're at a point now where everything that has ever been great in America is looked at and seen as perpetuating white supremacy and white privilege.
And that is why, that is why.
We have a very popular book that has been in your time's bestseller known as A Rhythm of Prayer.
Oh, okay.
A Rhythm of Prayer.
It's called A Collection of Meditations for Renewal.
Now, there is a prayer in it called A Prayer of a Weary Black Woman.
And it starts like this.
Dear God, please help me to hate white people.
Or at least to want to hate them.
At least I want to stop caring about them, individually and collectively.
I want to stop caring about their misguided, racist souls, to stop believing that they can be better, and that they can stop being racist.
This is a prayer that we're all supposed to meditate upon.
This book was published in February, as I said, became New York Times bestseller, and the prayer was written by Shaniqua Walker-Barnes, who is a PhD, and according to her bio, she is a, quote, theologian and psychologist, and her mission is to serve as a catalyst for healing, justice, and reconciliation.
Healing, justice, and reconciliation.
Yes.
Go back and read the first part of that prayer.
Please help me to hate white people.
Dear God, please help me.
Oh, please, please, please.
And then she says, the prayer continues.
Well, let's see.
My prayer is that you would help me to hate the other white people.
You know, the nice ones.
The Fox News loving Trump supporting voters who don't see color.
They're the ones we have to hate.
I mean, we already hate the rest of them, you see.
Now, Lord, if you can't make me hate them, at least spare me from their perennial gaslighting, white mansplaining, and white woman tears.
Stop me from striving to see the best in people.
Stop me from being hopeful that white people can do and be better.
Let me imagine them instead as white hooded robes standing in front of burning crosses.
No, the same conviction that drove John Brown back in 1859, 1860, I hear the same conviction in this theologian's prayer, and it's terrifying.
I'm sorry.
Now, I looked up this book on Amazon.
Go ahead.
Now, Amazon won't sell my books, of course.
Okay.
No white identity allowed, but this anti-white prayer is... Dear God, please help me hate white people.
But, of course, everybody's helping her hate white people.
You don't need God for that.
You need all of this anti-racism training.
The New York Times will help you hate white people.
Just read it every day and you'll hate white people.
It does not require God.
But yes, as I say, it's on Amazon and I looked at its description and it says, for the weary, The angry, the anxious, and the hopeful.
This collection of moving, tender prayers offers rest, joyful resistance, and a call to act.
A call to act, alright.
A call to hate white people.
Then it says, these gatherings, these prayers, are a trusted space where people seek help, hope, and peace, energized by God and one another, as they pray to the Lord to help them hate white people.
Now, is this prayer also one that is allowed to be said by white people?
Oh, I assume so.
Is it obligatory that you're on your knees at that point, too?
On one knee.
On one knee.
Take one knee.
One knee in honor of George Floyd.
In honor of George Floyd.
There you go.
Wow.
So yeah, pretty heady stuff, isn't it?
The Mocha Messiah himself.
Now, you know, as you know, there has been a terrible problem with anti-Asian hate.
And as everyone has explained, even though the perps are all exclusively black as far as I know, it's all white people's fault.
It's white supremacy that drives them to this and it's white supremacy that makes Asians not realize that it's white people who are causing it all.
Well, some guy got the message that his name is Michael Sangbong Rhee, age 37.
In Irvine, California, he approached a woman in her car outside an apartment building and he walked up to her and he pulled a gun.
And, uh, Ree then told her that she needed to get in the back of her car if she wanted to live.
Have you heard this story?
I have heard.
And the woman offered to hand over her wallet and cash, but instead, Michael Sangbong, Ree, said that they would do that later, before pushing her into the backseat.
Horripun, he tried to rape her.
And the victim was able to shout, and a nearby maintenance worker put up a bit of a fuss.
Rhee therefore left her car, ran through the local apartment complex, and got into his car and drove away.
A surveillance camera captured his license plate, and police later discovered that Rhee wanted to attack a white woman, rape a white woman.
In retaliation for all the hate incidents targeting Asian Americans.
So this guy has clearly been watching CNN.
Oh, he's MSNBC!
Yes, he's clearly been reading the news.
He knows white people are the problem.
So, he is going to fix the problem by raping a white woman.
Interestingly enough, as it turns out, the victim was herself Asian, but apparently mixed in such a way that at least as far as Michael Sangbong Rhee is concerned, she was a white lady.
So there you go.
We're glad to know he's at least paying attention and reading the news and doing with the mainstream media, thinking at least the mainstream media wanted to think.
Now maybe he has in fact read that prayer He read that prayer we just talked about, and God answered his prayers.
And so, he wanted to rape a white woman.
Now I wonder when that book is going to be instituted into curriculums across the country in public schools, and if any parent is going to say, well, wait a second.
Separation of church and state, we can't read... No, we can make an exception for it if we're asking God to help us hate white people.
That kind of public prayer is good.
Yeah, because Nike, Apple, Walmart, and Major League Baseball haven't done enough to incite anti-white hatred.
Nope, they haven't done enough.
Got to take it to the Lord in prayer.
Now, this was a question to the editor of the New York Times.
They have these agony anti-type columns, you know, and you write to the New York Times and say, yeah, I've got a real problem.
Help, help, help, help, help.
Well, this one goes like this.
I am the parent of a child who was conceived via in vitro fertilization and surrogacy using the sperm of a Caucasian man and a donor egg from someone who is half Colombian, half Central American.
May we in good conscience check Latino Hispanic on his college application?
Both the parents are white.
Can we play the angles, in other words?
Isn't this a crazy situation?
Two white people, I guess he can't conceive, and the mother is Central American and Colombian.
Wow!
So, this is what, in its wisdom and its bliss, Agony Auntie at the New York Times wrote.
You're presumably thinking that in college applications being identified as Hispanic-Latino will give him some advantage.
And that if he hasn't experienced discrimination or borne the burdens of the identity, this might be unfair.
In that situation, he'd certainly be gaining advantages designed for people with a different set of experiences.
So, if he hasn't been really beaten and battered and discriminated against and treated like mud, like all Hispanics are, especially by the police and people like you and me, then, if he hasn't gone through all of that, then he wouldn't deserve it.
She says, then Agony Annie goes on to say, deliberately engineering such an outcome would be wrong.
The brute fact of ancestry doesn't suffice to make your child Latino.
On the other hand, if he does come to identify as Latino and to be accepted by others as such, if, if, if, if, the special opportunities he might be afforded would serve one of their functions, which is to have people of Latino identity in a wider range of positions in our society.
So, just the fact that he may be biologically Hispanic, that's not enough unless he has sufficiently suffered or unless he identifies as Hispanic and other people think he's Hispanic.
And then he can waltz into Harvard or Stanford or MIT or Yale because he will be fulfilling one of the important functions which is to have Latino identity people in a wider range of places, especially in good places.
So that's, and this is just fascinating to me, that somebody's asking these questions.
The New York Times is pondering and scratching its heads.
What's the right thing to do?
Well, they should have just said, read the book with the anti-white prayer in it and, you know, go, just, just transfer all your money over and, you know, you silly white people.
At what point are white people going to be able to ask that question?
Well, moving on to Princeton.
Now, this surprised me, but this comes from the Princeton website.
Princeton has just offered admission to 1,498 students for the class of 2025.
What percentage, would you guess, of the U.S.
citizens and permanent residents that have been offered admission are BIPOC, people of color?
What percentage?
You know, I think it's about 65%.
65% 68% 68% 68% good grief I saw the numbers I didn't know the percentage so
68%.
I'm just ballparking it based on what my memory was 68% are non-white!
For heaven's sake!
22% will be first-generation college students.
But now there's no breakout by race, curiously enough.
I wonder just how this 68% pans out.
Now, that means only 32% of whites, I mean, whites are still a majority in this country.
Of course, they are a minority of people under age, I think it's 16 now, but college applicants, they're still a majority.
68% are non-white.
Wow.
Now, Princeton did not require applicants to submit standardized test scores.
That's interesting.
And I think one of the reasons they do that is it makes it harder to sue for discrimination.
Correct.
Because you don't have this subjective standard.
You say, well, this guy was head of his class.
He might have had a grade point average of 2.2, but he was head of his class, so he came.
Now my guess is, now this is the figure for U.S.
citizens and permanent residents.
I bet you that the figure of people of color for foreigners is even higher than 68 percent.
They're probably really just reeling them in from Muslim countries and African countries and Middle Eastern and boy oh boy.
But with all of these persons of color, Do you think at some point Prince is going to make a point of attracting a few white people for diversity?
No, I don't think so.
Not only will they not worry about that, but they're going to go room by room, building by building to make sure that every building name for a white man has been shaken and stress test to find out if they ever say anything bad in the past.
They're going to look at every mural that you see.
How many colleges now have we seen that are embarrassed by all the murals of white men, the white professors in the past that they honor, that they took them down?
That was at Harvard Medical College, or maybe it was... That's right.
I think it was the auditorium.
Yeah.
Yes.
They had all the former deans or something, and they had only an Asian or two.
Oh my gosh.
Can't have that.
Well, Woodrow Wilson School has been renamed, as I recall.
Can't have that.
It's gone.
He was a bad boy.
But, yeah, I guess white people, even if we just dwindle down to zero, we'll still never have diversity, won't we?
We'll just be shameful, shameful sources of white supremacy and good riddance to bad rubbish.
But, let's see, what else have we got going here?
Moving up north, briefly, to Canada.
Go to Canada.
Canada.
You know, Canada, up until 2013, had hate speech laws.
The Canadian Human Rights Tribunal could issue cease and desist orders and impose fines of up to $10,000 in response to complaints from people about matters likely to expose them to hatred or contempt For the reason of being identifiable on the basis of a prohibited ground of discrimination, which is the usual stuff, race, religion, national origin, etc, etc.
But, as I say, that was up until 2013.
This similar remedy, under what was called Section 13, was widely seen as highly politicized and excessively discretionary, and so they junked it.
Well, probably thanks to St.
George.
I mean, I don't see this specifically.
My guess is St.
George has got a lot to do with it.
The Liberal Party wants to bring back hate speech.
And so it will include the creation of a new regulator whose job it will be to enforce the new statutory definition of hate and will include requiring online platforms to take down any illegal hateful content within 24 hours.
Now, why do they need laws for this?
You have YouTube!
You got Google!
That's right!
You got Facebook!
You have Twitter!
Have they no hope?
Have they no faith in the people who are now our rulers?
Well, in the context of all of this, I think it's interesting to note where the idea of modern hate speech laws originated.
I think I know the answer, but go ahead.
You know the answer.
Well, you are a wise man.
This was news to me as I was poking around.
It comes from 1948 when the UN began drafting its Declaration of Human Rights.
The Soviet Union insisted absolutely that it included a clause banning so-called fascist speech.
That was the original hate speech that had to be banned.
Basically, it was to ban any person or idea that was not communist.
So there you go.
They're following in the footsteps of all of that Soviet wisdom, Soviet goodness, and Soviet bliss and harmony that has been making the United States and the rest of the world a better place all this time.
Now, we have come to the end of our planned stories on this occasion, a little earlier than usual, so what I would like to...unless you have others up your sleeve?
No!
You know, it's been a couple weeks you were both on vacay, so it's good to be back and breathe that fresh air.
I know our audience.
Obviously, it was about this time last year, maybe a month after that YouTube decided to say, you know what?
There's too much honesty, there's too much veracity.
We can't allow people to realize how popular American Renaissance is.
I think your channel had, what, 120,000 subscribers?
125.
The podcast channel was getting up there into the mid-20,000s, which was phenomenal, considering that it wasn't something that was really promoted that much.
Mr. Taylor, I want to take this time to really thank everybody out there.
Who's still sticking around?
I mean, again, with YouTube, you were notified when the new posts went up.
And with the new platforms we're using, obviously, it's a little bit harder.
Well, if you subscribe on BitChute, you can get notifications both for our podcasts and for new videos.
Okay, great.
Go to BitChute.
Yes, go to BitChute and you'll find out.
Also, I urge you, if you like, To send your email address to amran.com at the contact us page and we have a weekly newsletter.
The weekly newsletter highlights some of our better articles.
All our articles are good but we call your attention to some of those that we think are gooder than good and also you'd be notified of our podcasts and our videos.
Now Once again, we urge our listeners to send us your comments, especially send us your corrections.
Occasionally, even Mr. Kersey jumps the tracks.
Even occasionally, he gets something wrong.
And so when he does, we need to be told about it.
Not only do we need to be told about it, but I need to make sure I go and I get on a knee and I say that prayer that we talked about earlier.
Because I'm failing if I don't do that.
That's right.
Ask God to help you hate life.
But yes, we thank you for your attention and we look forward to speaking with you next week.
And it's great to be back in the saddle with Mr. Kersey.
