Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the latest episode of Radio Renaissance.
I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance, and the date today is May 12th, Anno Domini 2021.
With me is my indispensable co-host, and we will get to a start with France.
Usually we concentrate on the United States, but there have been some interesting doings in France.
I think one of the most significant was last month when a group of French military 1,000 serving officers and some 20 retired generals wrote an open letter to the country at large warning that a civil war is brewing And they called for military action against Islamists.
It talked about radical Islamic hordes living in the suburbs where the rule of law no longer exists.
As you can imagine, this sparked a considerable furor in France with Prime Minister Jean Castex calling the letter an unacceptable interference and France's top current serving general by the name of Francisco Lecointre He said those who signed it would face punishments ranging from forced full retirement to disciplinary action for the absolutely revolting letter.
Again, this talked about how France is falling apart, there is no peace, parts of France, the rule of law no longer applies, and they were urging the military to take whatever means are necessary to save France.
They considered a very patriotic statement.
Now, at the present time, 18 of the 1,000 or so officers who signed the letter are facing disciplinary action.
Well, there's just been another letter.
Another letter.
And it's not clear how many people are behind this latest letter or what their ranks are because it's anonymous.
Emmanuel Macron says it's cowardly to publish anonymous letters.
Yes, well, the poor cowards, you know, they're all facing discipline, but they're cowards, you see.
Now, in contrast to the previous letter, this one is open to be signed by the public.
It's published at Valeurs Actuelles, which is a conservative magazine.
And by last Monday, 93,000 people had signed it.
These are ordinary folks who said, yes, absolutely.
But many of the people who wrote this are said to be men and women serving in the government.
They describe their service for France, in Mali, Afghanistan and elsewhere.
They say they have witnessed deaths of comrades, killed in action.
But then they say this, Our comrades offer their lives to destroy the Islamism to which you have made concessions on our soil.
They'll go on to say we have seen with our own eyes the abandoned suburbs where France means nothing but an object of sarcasm, contempt, and even hatred.
We are talking about the survival of our country, the survival of your country.
And it goes on to say, if civil war breaks out, the military will maintain order on its own soil.
Civil war is brewing in France and you know it.
This is addressed to Macron and his cabinet.
Pretty strong talk.
Pretty strong talk.
Impossible to imagine in the United States.
Well, it's not impossible to imagine large swaths of the United States also falling in the same hands as we lament lost suburbs and lost cities.
We see exactly the same thing happening here, but it's impossible to imagine that kind of talk from the military in our country.
As we'll see later, there are a few retired admirals and generals who are speaking up in a sort of a general way, but boy, they don't have the spine these fellows do.
Now, Emmanuel Macron in the recent months has tacked somewhat to the right because Marine Le Pen, who faced him in the second round of the elections the last year, and is posing a very serious threat.
She has been talking about the danger of Islamists who have been recently immigrating to France.
And the France, let's see, but I think this is an extremely important thing.
A majority A French voters last month, when the initial letter with 20 retired generals came out, they said that 58% supported the letter.
48% supported the letter.
Yes.
Yes.
42% were opposed.
And the fact is, this is the kind of stuff that never makes the news in the United States.
But lately, there's been a whole spate of Islamists shouting Alawak Bar and stabbing policemen to death.
And the usual sort of, oh, they had beheadings in churches, priests giving mass, so that was some time ago.
But rival drug gangs just last week in the 19th arrondissement of Paris exchanged homemade mortar fire.
That was pretty exciting.
The riots in Lyon and Frejus down there on the Côte d'Azur.
And all these people who are raising hell have a certain thing in common.
They are immigrants and they are Muslims.
So, in any case... They're aliens.
They are aliens to France and many of them absolutely hate France.
It's common to see in the suburbs of the big cities graffiti that says, Nique la France.
N-I-Q-U-E.
Nique is a vulgar word for an activity engaged in by males and females.
Ah!
Yes.
Shuffleboard.
Yes.
Shuffleboard.
Shuffleboard France.
Okay.
Shuffleboard France.
Yes.
Give it a good slide to the other end.
Now, and I suspect this next story is the sort of thing that the acting and retired French officers are thinking about.
There's a fellow by the name of Franco Lollia, not Lolita, but Lollia.
He's on trial in France for spraying state negrophobia in red paint on the pedestal of a statue outside of the French Parliament.
It's a statue to Jean-Baptiste Colbert.
He was Louis XIV's most important minister.
He was hugely important in establishing French economic reforms, and Colbertism, the economic system that he put in place, is named from him.
He was a great promoter of French culture.
He passed a lot of laws, and at the time, slavery was legal, and he established what is called the Code Noir, or the Black Code, that was promulgated in 1685.
This is really a minor part of what he was up to.
He was a member of the French Academy.
As I say, he was a great promoter of French culture and French institutions.
Well, this guy Lollia, he said celebrating Colbert with a statue outside the National Assembly shows that the French state, quote, is viscerally necrophobic, even today.
Necrophobic.
Necrophobic, yes.
Maybe that's a new word.
Insufficiently necrophilia.
Yes, insufficiently necrophiliac.
Exactly.
But the state's presence, he says, the statue's presence, I beg your pardon, is spitting in the face of all people who look like me.
It just stands there on its pedestal and spits in your face.
I'm sure that's what it does 24 hours a day.
Now, Lolia, who needless to say is an immigrant and is very, very melanin enhanced, he called the fact that he was actually put on trial an insult.
I suppose he thinks he should have been made a member of the French Academy for bringing this up and explaining to France its sins.
He goes on to say, I'm really disappointed that the justice system is still so blind.
Well, Justice is supposed to be blind, but I suppose he says that Justice has got her eyes squinched tightly closed because those who combat negrophobia can be accused of crimes, even when they deface public monuments.
Now, this to me is the aspect that I find perhaps the most surprising of all, and it's this.
Mr. Lolea's defense team argued that he acted, believe it or not, in self-defense.
In self-defense.
His attorney, Georges-Emmanuel Germany, odd name for a Frenchman, said that the judge should consider France's past behavior as a criminal state in considering Lollia's act.
In other words, France is a criminal state.
So when he defaces a statue of a famous Frenchman who was not insufficiently woke, he's a 17th century Frenchman by the way, but he's not woke by today's standards, he probably would be baffled by a slogan like Black Lives Matter, but since he was part of the state that was regulating slavery, that means that France is a criminal state and any Act against it must be justified.
Not only would he be baffled at the term Black Lives Matter, but he'd also be baffled to think that statues long ago built and dedicated to dead white males could somehow expectorate on non-whites as they pass by.
That's a heck of a superpower, a posthumous superpower.
I'll say, you know, but that's like white silence is violence.
We have superpowers.
Just by maintaining silence, we're committing violence.
And this guy, just by standing there in broads, he spits in the face every day.
People who are black.
He's got pretty good aim, I guess.
He never spits in a white person's face.
He spits only in black people's faces.
So, yes, I suspect that although you didn't mention this guy, this Franco Lollia, by name, I imagine the French officers have this sort of thing in mind.
Now, moving on to American flag officers.
Just yesterday, 124 retired generals and admirals, American generals and American admirals, published an open letter and one of its opening sentences said that during the 2020 election
An open letter from senior military leaders was signed by 317 retired generals and admirals, and it said the 2020 election could be the most important since our country was founded.
Now, I was unaware of that letter.
I didn't see it.
But they said, with the Democrat Party welcoming socialists and Marxists, our historic way of life is at stake.
Unfortunately, that statement's truth was quickly revealed, beginning with the election process itself.
So they go on to express certain doubts as to the integrity of the election process.
But as I say in this new one just published yesterday, they say a number of good things.
Open borders jeopardize national security.
Common sense?
Well, they jeopardize a lot more than that.
Exactly.
But let's start with national security.
That's okay.
That's, you know, I'd say that's not full marks, but that's partial marks for the generals.
They also say the free flow of information is critical.
I say full marks on that point.
They say remove section 230 that protects big tech.
They say big tech is engaged in censorship.
Removing section 230 I don't think would end censorship by those folks, but that's a different discussion.
But they're on the right track.
They want a free flow of information.
Then they say, and this is pretty good too, And I quote, using the U.S.
military as political pawns, with thousands of troops deployed around the U.S.
Capitol building, patrolling fences, guarding against a non-existent threat.
Ah, full marks there.
Along with forcing politically correct policies like the divisive critical race theory into the military at the expense of the warfighting mission, seriously degrades readiness to fight and win our nation's wars.
Well, okay, that's true.
And I think that's very good.
But they had 25,000 troops, as we were pointing out, when Jubal Early was probing the defenses during 1863.
I can't remember, 1864, maybe.
1864.
I just actually read a book.
Based on, I didn't know anything about that incursion.
Oh, yeah.
It's an unbelievable story.
Yes, it's a great story.
They had only 9,000 federal troops there.
Exactly.
Guarding against, he had a whole army.
Exactly.
But no, no, no, they needed 25,000 men all carefully vetted to make sure that none of them was a political dissident to protect against people like you and me.
Well, if you're just a Trump voter, 74 million Trump voters, you know, one of the forgotten stories already in 2020, Mr. Taylor, and I know our listeners will remember it.
Think about the fact that the FBI got involved in vetting the guardsmen, the guard troops in DC, among some fear, quote-unquote fear, of an insider attack.
That's right.
What are you talking about?
This January 6 event was For the large part, a bunch of boomers taking selfies in the Capitol.
It was just a disorganized rabble that got out of hand.
But no, it's an armed insurrection, a threat to us, white supremacist threat to our democracy.
But afterwards, it's just this stunning, you know, basically, it was like something out of a movie, as if there's this, as the generals so eloquently put it, You could do anything in D.C.
And they still got the wall around it, I think.
I haven't been for a while, but they got this big fence up around it, haven't they?
There's a number of fences.
You know, life is coming back to normal in most American cities now as the COVID stuff is lifted.
But you're right.
I mean, again, if they had their ways, I'm sure the troops would all still be there protecting these individuals from this threat.
I want them to stay there.
Let them think that they are alien occupiers, which is in many respects exactly what they are.
Let them look that way.
But to return to this letter by these 124 retired generals, and that's quite a few, they say, Anarchy as seen in certain cities cannot be tolerated.
Good work, boys.
We must support our law enforcement personnel and insist that DAs, courts, and the DOJ enforce the law fairly, equally, and consistently.
Now, there's an idea.
And the fact that it takes 124 generals to say, isn't the law supposed to be enforced consistently?
That's a remarkable state of affairs.
Now, there's nothing in this letter about making the military a happy place for transsexuals, but I suppose they think that's a wonderful idea.
This letter, just because it raises these points.
It prompted the usual shrieking with the media finding, of course, only people to quote who are scorning these retired officers.
There are 124 of them.
I'm sure they speak for an awful lot of people.
And I'm sure it would be no trouble at all to find people who agreed with them and defended their points, but to the extent that you can find anything about this in the media at all, it's obvious that, oh, this is horrible.
Now, another thing that they sort of touched on this business about political correctness.
An example of that, of course, is the kind of training to which our military is now being submitted.
Well, we've talked at length about all that's happened at the Air Force Academy, the the writing on the wall a couple years ago, the general who Jumped in and went all in on, oh, this is the worst thing ever.
Turns out it was a hoax.
He still got some sort of award from one of these alphabet soup organizations.
Again, confronting non-existent racism.
Because as you said earlier, white silence is somehow violence, even if the silence is written Well, yes, as I always say, the demand for racism far outstrips the supply, so it's got to be cooked up and phonied up and hoaxed up.
But in any case, yes, what's the military up to now?
Well, we've got a story of the U.S.
Army Training and Doctrine Command's Diversity Office providing training necessary to effectively advise commanders In areas of diversity and inclusion.
That's obviously a battlefield priority.
Fun for Sergeant Dick and Corporal J. Let me just state that one more time.
So this is TRADOC.
The diversity officer is going to provide training necessary to effectively advise commanders in areas of diversity and inclusion and to make better, more inclusive workplace for everyone.
So again, the effectiveness of the U.S.
Army Training and Doctrine Command Take second fiddle to be able to be competent and perform their task as assigned by superior officers.
You know, didn't we used to call this sensitivity training?
Well, I think, you know, that's, that was what we're used to calling it.
And I don't think, I think our military does need sensitivity training.
Don't we want very sensitive soldiers?
We don't want them ever to be insensitive.
We want soldiers who can barely do pull-ups.
We want soldiers who can barely do push-ups, because that's insensitive to actually have standards governing those who can progress to special forces.
And you know, I think it is very doubtful to expect them to shoot people, because that's the most insensitive thing of all.
Well, here's the name of this training.
Take a guess.
Well, I don't know.
It's not Diversity, Inclusion, and Equality, D-I-E-D-I?
It's not that, I suppose.
Game Changer.
The training called the Game Changer Training.
It was hosted at the Jacobs Conference Center for Army Equal Opportunity Advisors.
April 26th to the 30th, here's what Lieutenant Colonel Joseph Hissom said, quote, We're a force multiplier.
We can come into an organization, help the commander build a stronger team and explain to them why it's important to have diversity.
We didn't have much diversity inclusion training before, but with this course, we're now better equipped to advise our commanders in this area."
End quote.
I feel so much safer knowing that TRADOC is going to be having, as one of its primary initiatives, diversity inclusion.
Well, it's not as though they haven't had it before.
They've been doing it for years and years and years.
But one of the absolutely essential features in your regular evaluation as a soldier is sports diversity and inclusion.
If you get a below satisfactory on that, you're not going anywhere.
That's been the case for decades.
Career's done.
Yes, yes.
Sports diversity.
He may be a hell of a killer and a born leader and a man among men, but nope, doesn't sport diversity, so out he goes.
So, well, I'm so glad that they'll be trained in sensitivity.
Now, Heather McDonald of the City Journal has written in her usual brilliant style about the Department of Energy's Department of Science.
Joe Biden, our fearless leader Joe, has nominated to head the largest funder of the fiscal science in the U.S., a woman who's never held a position as a scientific administrator.
She has no background in physics or the sciences of energy or the energy sector.
Now, the typical head of the DOE's Office of Science in the past has had managerial authority in major physics labs and has been a physicist.
But the new nominee's only managerial experience consists of serving as the Interim Associate Dean of UC Merced's Graduate Division since 2020.
Strictly an academic.
As an electrical engineer at the prestigious California University, Cal State University, she compares this person's nomination to, quote, putting a newspaper delivery boy in charge of Google.
No, I think a newspaper delivery boy might in fact have some better ideas about how Google should operate, but I understand the point that this guy's making.
But, it's all okay.
It's all okay, because this appointee, Asmeret Asifu Bertha, spelled B-E-R-H-A, would be the first black woman To head the $7 billion office, and this is just the icing on the cake, the cherry on the chocolate sundae.
She's a native of Eritrea.
Ooh, Eritrea.
On Eritrea.
And boy, they are very distinguished when it comes to such things as x-ray synchrotrons and development of nuclear weapons and research on nuclear physics.
She's got it down pat.
Well, she actually has a PhD in soil geology from the University of California, Merced.
But she has, of course, benefited from UC's obsessive diversity push.
She got the president's post-doctoral fellowship to promote underrepresented minority graduate students.
So she has gotten the leg up that her kind always get.
And this is the kind of thing that she writes.
These are her scientific papers.
A leaky pipeline versus a vicious obstacle course.
Metaphors for the persistent exclusion of minoritized scholars from STEM.
Minoritized.
Yes, they're racialized.
They're minoritized because all of this is imaginary, you see.
But the fact that she's black is not imaginary.
No.
No, no, no, no.
And here's another one.
A critical feminist approach to transforming workplace climate into geosciences through community engagement and partnerships.
Now that's pretty important, hard science going on in a paper like that.
Also, one of her papers is, hostile climates are barriers to diversifying the geosciences.
Hostile climates.
Is that rainstorms?
Is that sleet?
Is that excessive dryness?
Who knows?
Hostile climates are barriers.
It's climates that aren't properly minoritized.
Mmm.
Yeah.
Too white.
Exactly.
Too much snow.
Exactly.
Now, the White House, at the same time, as Heather McDonald points out, is not submitting its judicial nominees to the American Bar Association for Evaluation.
And the reason for that is that the ABA may not be sufficiently attuned to the benefits of diversity.
Now the ABA, of course, has been just tying itself into a hangman's noose with excitement about the idea of diversity.
It has been on the diversity bandwagon for years.
It is thoroughly woke, woke, woke, woke.
It's like it's on speed 24 hours a day, but it's not sufficiently attuned to the benefits of diversity.
So the ABA is not going to be asked about whether or not the judicial nominees are Qualified.
And this Eritrean, as I say, she's been in charge of ladling out seven billion dollars to fund and make priorities in the hard sciences.
So, we continue to forge ahead.
Progress must be as non-white as possible.
Regardless of Progress happening or not, as long as it's non-white, that in itself, Mr. Taylor, is progress.
You're right, that's progress in and of itself.
In and of itself, you're quite right.
Now moving on to Washington state, Governor Jay Inslee, he has signed into a law that incorporates
the doctrine of equity, cultural competency and dismantling institutional racism
into training for all K through 12 educators.
All school districts in Washington must use one of three professional learning days,
but it's just one day, to train all the staff in cultural competency, diversity, equity and inclusion.
Now the legislature, the state house, continues to do the important work
of dismantling institutional racism in public schools.
They're going to only do that one day a week, one day a year.
I mean, how are they going to get that done?
Institutional racism is so intense.
There's only 24 hours in a day.
Exactly, exactly.
It's got to be every day, every day, yes.
But this will better support those who are immigrants and students of color.
It all boils down to immigrants and students of color, and we'll make them, and I'm quoting the law, feel safe, heard, and understood.
Safe, heard, and that's been my goal in life, Mr. Kersey, to feel safe, heard, and understood.
You know, we've talked a lot about Washington State.
That is, I still believe, one of the whiter states.
Yeah, outside of Seattle and Tacoma.
This governor, I believe, signed a bill a couple weeks ago that got rid of all the schools named after Indians.
That's correct.
But I believe there was an out if they got permission from a local tribe.
That's right, that's right.
Yep, yep.
If the local Kickapoo say, yes, yes, you can have the Kickapoo Kickers as your mascot, then that's okay.
But that permission can be withdrawn for any reason, anytime.
It's not permission in perpetuity.
But so, and as Ibram Kendi writes, there's no such thing as a non-racist or race-neutral policy.
So every policy must be anti-racist, and that is what Washington State has established for its K-12 public schools.
Every policy must be minoritized.
I think we need to bring that into our vernacular.
I like that, minoritized.
Minoritized, yes.
Well, you and I could be minoritized one of these days, you know, stick around long enough.
That's true.
Minoritization is in your future.
Now, of course, I'm glad to say that Oklahoma, the state house, has already banned critical race theory out of this mumbo-jumbo.
So has Arkansas, so has Idaho, and so has Tennessee.
And prospects look good for similar laws in Iowa, Louisiana, Missouri, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, and West Virginia.
So, the white man is rising up against critical race theory, at least in a few places, although in Washington, he is lying down.
Well, he's submitting.
Whichever it is.
Acquiescence.
He's acquiescing.
Yes, the white man is bad, bad, bad.
So, tell us about Fairfax County.
Well, Fairfax County, I believe, is where the New Century Foundation is located, if I'm not correct.
It is.
In fact, In fact, the Fairfax County Public Schools is where the president of the New Century Foundation sent his daughters to school.
Public school, mind you, right?
Public schools.
Oh, they came back good little white people.
They weren't minoritized, were they?
So tell me, tell me, what's going on in my public schools?
Well, Fairfax County Public Schools Superintendent Scott Brabant urged parents to take a survey and help shape the district's curriculum.
This curriculum, the issue is that many consider the school systems to be non-inclusive.
Yeah, I'm sure the parents are all just sitting around the kitchen table at night.
Oh, it's not inclusive!
As the property values continue to rise, that problem of non-inclusivity, that's always at the back of their mind.
Quote, we're talking about all subjects.
Jean-Claude Brizard, the president and CEO of Digital Promise.
That sounds like a digital horror.
The nonprofit works to close the gaps in things like graduation rates and college readiness
based on a student's race, class, or where they live.
Again, if an area is insufficiently minoritized, then there's too much unearned privilege.
So these areas have to be bestowed with the wisdom of digital promise.
Well, then let's majoritize them.
Won't that solve all the problems?
You would think so.
Here's a good quote from Bazard.
Quote, when you look at, for example, who is highlighted in terms of the inventors in engineering and chemistry and physics, often the voices, for example, of African Americans were not included.
Huh.
The kinds of great inventions you find that maybe our Asian community or Asian scientists have done.
May not be included.
Name some great and historic renowned black engineers and chemists.
You can't!
That's because you were poorly educated.
I was poorly educated?
Luckily, if you go to Google and type in American inventors, I believe you get nothing more than a rundown of... Nope, not Thomas Edison.
I think Thomas Edison is the only white guy.
Thomas Edison is the only white guy?
Okay.
And the rest of it's Mr. Peanut and everybody else on down from there.
George Washington Carver is a titan among us.
He invented peanut butter.
Yes, he did.
So, again, the parents were sent letters asking to take part in a survey.
As the father of alumni from this district, were you sent this survey?
I was not, because I'm no longer a parent.
My children have graduated.
So, Justice Across in D.C., D.C.
Public Schools, has been using its Equity Framework Program to identify issues of inequality for three years.
Loudoun County, which is, I believe, the richest county per capita in the United States, is also working through... Per household.
Per household.
It may be per capita, but yes.
Working through an anti-racist program, which, luckily, a lot of people are fighting back against.
That's right.
And Montgomery County and And Maryland is in the middle of a system-wide anti-racism audit that's looking into practices, school policies, as well as what's being taught.
Orgy everywhere.
It's so inspiring.
What is that book by Charles Murray that came out in, what was it, 2003?
Human Accomplishment?
Yes.
I think that should be the basis of a solid education in a public school in the future.
No, no, no.
It should have been called Inhuman Accomplishment.
All those white people exploiting non-whites.
That's how they accomplish things.
Are we allowed to point out that he has a new book coming out in less than a month?
I don't see why not.
He's got a new book coming out, which is apparently going to be his Piece de resistance.
Let's hope so.
Let's hope so.
And I'm sure that it will be completely and studiously ignored by the mainstream media.
All the people who should read it will never hear about it.
Are you aware of this tome?
Oh, yes, yes, yes.
We've got it on order.
Oh, great.
Oh, yes.
I plan to read it avidly as soon as it appears.
Charles Murray will make all the arguments that we have been making, and he will make them in a very careful and measured way, non-provocative, relentlessly factual, and the fact that it's coming from him makes a difference.
So, this should be a very important book.
I suspect it will be a very ignored book.
But, we will do our best to promote it.
Now, moving on to New York City.
There's this amusing little story about how police work happens in the United States.
Just last Saturday, about 5 p.m., there was gunfire right in Times Square, Manhattan.
5 p.m., broad daylight, and a four-year-old girl From Brooklyn, was wounded.
She was shopping for toys with her family.
A 23-year-old tourist from Rhode Island, who was hoping to visit the Statue of Liberty but got lost and ended up in Times Square, was shot in the leg.
And a 43-year-old woman from New Jersey was shot in the foot.
None of these people was apparently an intended target.
The suspected gunman was caught on surveillance video and he matches a certain pattern that we needn't elaborate upon.
As it happens, two sergeants with the Manhattan South Detective Bureau spotted a man who looked just like the alleged shooter right down to his clothes.
Now, they stopped the man to question him, telling him he looked an awful lot like the Times Square suspect.
And you know what his reply was?
What was his reply?
I'm his brother.
Said the man, I'm his brother.
The man then told the officers that his brother had been aiming for him during the Times Square shooting.
So not only he was the victim, he was a witness and he was the victim.
I just thought that was an amusing little wrinkle.
And the suspect, of course, has been busted many times before.
But... He was obviously lying, right?
No, no, no, no, no.
This is the truth.
So that's the punchline?
That's the punchline.
Okay, make sure our listener knows that.
You're right, you're right.
We don't want this to go over people's heads.
I'm not that subtle a humorist.
No, this guy was telling the truth.
Sure enough, it was his brother.
So they led him to the right guy.
And the right guy's now been arrested.
But I just thought that was an amusing example of police work.
But the police must be defunded because if there were no police around, that guy would not have been shooting his brother.
We know that.
As it is, as it is, 460 people have been shot this year in New York City as of May 2nd compared with 259.
The year before.
460 is compared to 259.
That is a nice little jump.
But as I say, that's why we have to defund the police.
They're shooting all these people because these police are all running around being provocative and forcing black people to shoot each other.
So once we defund the police, there'll be no more shootings.
I believe they've just called for massive refunding of the police in New York to the tune of $105,000.
A million dollars?
I don't know.
I don't know the exact amount.
But yeah, de Blasio, basically, the pressure is mounting.
What accounts for this startling good sense?
The fact that New York's homicide rate actually increased, I think, by 40% in 2020 versus 2019, just like all these other cities.
I mean, you know that the Atlanta mayor, who last year at this time Uh, in June and in July was being pushed as potentially Joe Biden's nominee.
Keisha Bottoms.
She just announced she's not running again.
A lot of people speculate it's because of how bad crime has been.
To a point where Buckhead is considered seceding, and I know a lot about this city, so... Well, she is one of our melanin-enhanced noble Negresses, and if she can't control it, Mr. Kersey, it's impossible!
It cannot be controlled.
But yes, I heard the news.
She's not running again, poor girl.
But let's see... She bottomed out.
Oh, you're too much for me.
Colorado Springs.
Hot times in Colorado Springs.
They responded to a call about a shooting at 12.18 a.m.
and found six dead people.
And one dead person with serious injuries.
This injured man was taken to the local hospital where he later succumbed, as the newspaper likes to put it.
He succumbed.
Now, this was at a birthday party held at a trailer home for one of the victims.
They were friends, family, and children present.
Now, what children were doing out at 12 18 a.m.
is left unstated in this very brief news account.
But I thought this is just one of those things the suspected gunman was allegedly the boyfriend of one of the female victims.
I guess hell hath no fury like a man scorned and he walked inside and began blazing away and then he shot himself.
But our listeners will be happy to know the children present at the party were not injured and are now with relatives.
Now, there was nothing said about any kind of indication as to who these people were, but I suspect if the shooter and the victims had been white, we'd have heard all about that.
But this is just another one of those old little events that take place in certain communities in the United States.
Now, moving on to black colleges.
I think this is a quite an interesting little story.
Students going to college this fall could not visit campuses where they might have wanted to enroll, and so many had to decide where to go based on factors other than a campus visit.
And as it turns out, black students have been applying like crazy to historically black institutions.
Apparently many were influenced by reports of racial tensions at white campuses.
And so, Spelman College had received this year 11,126 applications, last year 9,100, up 18% in just one year.
That's not bad.
applications. Last year, 9,100, up 18% in just one year.
That's not bad. North Carolina A&T State University had 28,500 undergraduate applications. In 2017, there were 18,000
That's up 35% in that period.
Six straight years of record enrollment.
Morgan State, a historically black university in Baltimore, it got 14,600 applications, an all-time high.
And believe it or not, it is a 59% increase over the total number received in 2019, the last year before the pandemic.
That was North Carolina A&T, you said?
No, Morgan State.
Morgan State.
Now, North Carolina A&T up 35% over a period of six years.
Every single one of those six years has been a record.
So, black people are clamoring to get into black universities because they've heard about just how wicked and awful the white people are on majority white campuses.
Well, good!
That's fantastic.
That's good news.
Well, I'm sure they're going to be happy among their own kind.
Now, as one of the people who are observing these phenomena say, HBCUs are really in the spotlight, in part because of, and this had not occurred to me, Kamala Harris.
She went to Howard University.
So, and she's now, of course, serving as vice president.
So the fact that she went to Howard and now she's in the White House, this is very inspirational for our African-American fellow citizens of college-going age.
So they weren't inspired by Michelle Obama going to Princeton and writing that... Not at all.
Hilarious essay.
I can't remember the title of it, but... Oh, yes.
I don't know.
Being Black at Princeton or something like that.
Yeah.
Minoritizing Princeton.
Right.
Hambone in the Ivy League.
Whatever it was.
But then there was Stacey Abrams.
Stacey Abrams.
She's a Spelman College graduate.
And she, of course, swanned to fame in Georgia.
Nearly made it to be a governor.
Or she thinks so.
She never conceded?
She never conceded.
So I guess she's always got a chance.
And she's got her eye on higher office all the time.
Apparently, according to the article in Higher Education, the Chronicle of Higher Education is a good place to learn about what our great minds are thinking, Mr. Kersey.
That students, as I say, want someplace safe where they will feel supported.
Someplace safe.
You know, it's mighty dangerous at a place like Princeton.
Mighty dangerous.
A lot of bullets whizzing through the air.
A lot of Ku Klux Klan rallies.
You know, the alt-right is marching up and down.
But they can be safe at Spelman and at Howard.
And, as you say, this is great news.
They'll be happy amongst their own kind.
They will be.
Yes, yes.
I do recall a couple years ago reading in that same journal, Mr. Taylor, that these HBCUs had some of the lowest graduation rates over six years.
Shh!
Shh!
Don't tell them that.
Okay.
Don't tell them that.
I won't tell them that.
All these people are roaring in.
Also, they have the worst delinquency rates when it comes to paying back college loans.
But, shh!
Shh!
Don't tell them that either.
No, no, no.
We want them to be happy.
We want them to be happy.
Hap, hap, happy.
Hap, hap, happy.
Now, in the Asians Going Nuts category, and this category swells by the day, a certain Grace Pai, who is an Assistant Professor of Interdisciplinary Studies at City University of New York, writing in, once again, inside higher education.
This is really my pipeline into, as I say, what the best minds of the country are up to.
She has written an article called, I'm Asian and Angry at Higher Education.
Now, Grace Pye, in her case, her name is not spelled like P-I, Pye, the Greek symbol.
It's not P-I-E as in sweet potato pie, but P-A-I.
So we know she's the real thing.
And she says, as an American-born Chinese woman, I grew up enduring my fair share of subtle microaggressions and outright racism.
I never felt deeply wounded by it until now.
Until now.
Here's the kicker.
What the heck has happened?
Well, she writes this, and this is, I think, quite revealing.
Quite revealing.
She writes about the eight people, including six Asian women, killed in Atlanta spa shootings.
And she says, now we talked about that many times, I think all of our listeners are probably familiar with this, but this sex nut, this Christian guilt-ridden sex nut mutt shot up a bunch of handjob specialists at one of these outfits, and I don't think Grace had anything to do with it.
It was a massage parlor, Mr. Taylor.
Come on, man, there was a massage parlor.
Okay, massage.
And of course, as you said, six of those who died were Asian, because disproportionately the individuals who work at these Handjob, I mean, massage parlors in Atlanta are Asian, but of course, a white woman, I believe, is Hispanic.
Now, are these noble immigrants taking jobs that Americans won't do?
Is that the problem?
They are taking jobs.
I think we need vocational school.
We have to put a handout for handouts.
That's right.
Vocational training.
Oh, but in any case, this all happened.
Now, as she says, After this happened, she says, I observed a muted response.
I found that in response to George Floyd's murder, 15 out of the 18 City University of New York colleges or 83% posted something related to Black Lives Matter.
In contrast, only 67% responded to the Atlanta shootings.
Got that?
Got that?
83% were all bent out of shape regarding George Floyd, but only 67% responded to the Atlanta shootings.
As for the Ivy League, all eight Ivy institutions posted a message on Instagram after George Floyd, compared with only five after the Atlanta shootings.
Well, I mean, this is making her furious.
This has now means that she is absolutely angry.
She's deeply wounded and she's angry.
I guess the answer, of course, is for Asians to burn cities down.
Then people talk about it.
Isn't that so?
Then she says this.
I attended many meetings and events that began with a moment of silence for the black lives that have been lost.
No meeting or event I attended following the recent loss of multiple Asian lives did the same.
Well, I'm still waiting for a meeting to attend where we mourn Ashley Babbitt.
That will never happen.
Not on campus anywhere.
And then so she says.
So she's really hopping mad on account of this.
Asian victims are just not getting the respect they deserve and the victimology sweepstakes she wants to collect.
Then she goes on to say, because some of the perpetrators of recent violence against Asians have been black people.
Black, of course, is capitalized.
Fear of and misinformation about black Americans is spreading within our communities.
Misinformation.
It's obviously misinformation.
That's right.
When the New York Police Department put out their hate crime against Asians and every one of them, the perpetrators, has been monochromatically black.
No, no, no.
Those are Trump voters in blackface.
You know that.
Burnt cork.
And she says, particularly among older generations are suffering from misinformation.
Asian, American and Pacific Islander students need support that shows them how to address misinformation within their own families and communities.
In other words, they got to say, no, dad, the black people who beat you up, either they were white face, white people in blackface, or in any case, they're victims of white supremacy, just like you.
That will solve the problem.
But, so once again, you know, Asians used to be pretty sensible about this stuff, but I guess they have been caught up in this woke, woke, woke stuff, just like all the crazy white people.
Well, I think you actually just, beautiful turn of phrase there, this victim sweepstakes, they want to cash in on it.
And I think a lot of them are beginning to realize the odds are stacked against them for cashing in.
A precious few can, but it's, there are a lot of gatekeepers.
That's right, and there are a lot of people who come higher, apparently, in the victimology rankings than Asians.
But all of this fits into yet another New York City story, and that was that of a 31-year-old Asian woman, a recent graduate of the Fashion Institute of Technology.
And just last Sunday, she was walking with a friend around 8.40 p.m.
on the way back to the subway, and they believed that it would be safer to go together.
Well, it wasn't.
A black woman saw them and said, take off your fucking mask, which was a bit of a surprise.
This is not someone that they knew.
The woman then swung a hammer at the victim, smashing her on the left side of the face.
And according to the police, she told them later, after she had recovered, my mom was actually telling me, please be careful, there's a lot of anti-Asian crime happening in America.
And sure enough, now the perp unfortunately is on the loose, despite the fact that there was video surveillance footage of this.
You can see it if you go hunting for it.
This lady swings the hammer, kabam!
Now, this is the interesting part.
The victim plans to move back to Taiwan.
I suppose she can be sure she's not going to be hit in the head with a hammer by a black woman in Taiwan.
But she's open to returning to the Big Apple if it ever is safe again.
But as Grace Pai, P-A-I, Pai, explains, we know that the problem is white supremacy.
And so as long as there are white people here, there's going to be white supremacy.
So I'm afraid we're not going to see this lady anytime soon.
But I hope she'll be happy in Taiwan.
I wish her every success.
Now, I think, Mr. Kersey, you have further adventures.
In the life of Super DA, Super DA Larry Krasner.
Is it a bird?
Is it a plane?
No!
It's Larry Krasner!
Larry Krasner, the man who's presided over one of the more shocking crime waves in the country.
This particular story just astonishes me.
I don't know where you dug it up, but it is a real eye-opener.
I'll tell you where I dug it up.
I was at Vox Day's website.
I enjoy looking at Vox occasionally.
He's got some great stuff over there, so I would recommend everybody check out voxday.blogspot.com.
The headline was, in the link, it was, District Attorney Krasner Declines to Charge Two Teens in Robbery of Asian Women.
So you think, that's kind of an anodyne headline.
What does that mean?
No, that's not anodyne.
That's surprise.
I mean, Asian women, I mean, these, they are the new victim class.
Well, it's, you think that, it's okay, but okay, think about that.
Two teens.
Obviously, you know, immediately, they're black.
The way that that is, because it would have been, you know, At 1.38am on April 28th, police reported two Asian women, ages 46 and 51, were assaulted, beaten, and robbed by a group of juveniles in Philadelphia.
Here we go. At 1.38am on April 28th, police reported two Asian women, ages 46 and 51,
were assaulted, beaten, and robbed by a group of juveniles in Philadelphia. The first victim,
46, was pushed to the ground and punched in the head. The second victim, age 51, was punched
The robbers took the two women's bags and escaped on foot.
They made off with Pennsylvania ID cards, credit cards, a brand new iPhone 10, and a total of $7,000 in cash.
That's a lot of money to be carrying around at 1.38 AM.
So yeah, exactly.
Police were called to the scene by reports of a robbery in progress, and they apprehended two black males, Maurice Pollard, 18, And Zakir Norman, 14, both residing in West Philadelphia, born and raised.
It's for the Fresh Prince.
I'm sure you watched that growing up.
Afraid not.
Okay.
The cops found Pollard hiding underneath the car.
They subsequently chased down Norman.
After the two suspects were in custody, the two female Asian victims made positive identification, saying they were sure that Pollard and Norman were among the group of black juveniles who were there when they were beaten and robbed.
But the two victims told police They weren't sure who hit them.
So police arrested Norman and Paulin and charged them with aggravated assault, robbery, criminal conspiracy, two counts of theft, simple assault, and reckless endangerment.
But when the cops filed their paperwork with Larry Krasner's district attorney office, the charging unit declined to prosecute the case.
Both suspects were subsequently Released.
Exonerated.
With $7,000.
Go ahead, don't spend it all one place, but off you go.
The DA's office has a controversial policy of not trusting so-called, quote, cross-racial identifications, end quote.
In other words, the Philadelphia DA's office under Larry Krasner doesn't trust a white person or an Asian person to be able to reliably identify a black suspect in a crime.
They could engage in Dare I say, racial profiling.
Or, all look the same.
You know, this is incredible to me.
I bet if it is a black victim identifying a white person, I bet they have no trouble accepting that.
But this is incredible to me.
Imagine, imagine you are one of these Asian women, and you have had your load lightened of $7,000, your brand new iPhone number 10, and the DA says, uh-oh, you're Asian.
You can't tell black people apart.
I'm not going to charge these guys.
You may think they're the ones, but they all look alike to you.
Get lost!
I might not have the same view of the African American community that Ms.
Pye has, and I might share the sensibilities that the elder Asian population that... If you recall, Philadelphia is that city back, I think it was in 2015 or 2016, where one of the black council members was upset because there was plexiglass in areas that were heavily frequented by black patrons, largely owned by Asian shopkeepers.
And they said this is an affront to the dignity, dignity of African Americans.
Well, I mean, this, as I say, I just goggled when I read that story of yours.
This really is, in effect, saying, you know, okay, black people, you can go out and attack, assault, rob anybody who's not black, and Larry Krasner is going to figure, it's not going to make any difference if he IDs you.
He's a white guy.
He's Asian.
He's Hispanic.
Don't worry.
This is just incredible.
I mean, that's the first I'd heard about that.
I will have to ruminate further on this.
As I say, every new year I make a resolution not to be astonished by something that happens, but by anything that happens.
But I'm afraid I'm astonished, but I break that resolution every year.
There's so many extraordinary things that happen.
Now, Walt Disney, it bills itself as the happiest place on earth, but apparently it's not happy at all.
Disney now has a diversity and inclusion program called Reimagine Tomorrow.
Because apparently the place is shot through with white supremacy, white fragility, insensitivity, etc., etc., and the company tells its employees they must take ownership of educating themselves about structural anti-black racism throughout society, including Walt Disney, and they should not rely on their black colleagues to educate them.
Because it's emotionally taxing.
White employees must work through feelings of guilt, shame, and defensiveness to understand what is beneath them and what needs to be healed.
They must listen with empathy to black colleagues and must not question or debate black colleagues' lived experience.
Now, this is the latest buzzword, lived experience.
If a black person has got lived experience, oh boy, that is rock-ribbed, gold-plated, cast-iron, stainless steel, you must not doubt that or question.
Well, it's irrefutable proof of white racism.
Oh, whatever it is.
That they've experienced in this lived experience.
It's lived experience.
If you, if you say, I was taught to treat everyone the same, that is prima facie evidence of your internalized racism and white fragility.
Makes sense.
Yes, yes.
And the employees at the Happy Kingdom, the happiest place on earth, they get a 21-day racial equity and social justice challenge.
And at the conclusion of this 21-day challenge, seven grueling days, the participants are told that they must learn how to pivot from white dominant culture.
And you must reject competition, power hoarding, comfort with predominantly white leadership, individualism, timeliness, and comprehensiveness because they are white dominant values that perpetuate white supremacy culture within Disney and all around the world.
Yeah, that's probably true.
Timeliness.
What is timeliness?
It's called punctuality.
Yes, timeliness is the long word.
But the people who, you know, they use these words, they don't know what they mean.
And apparently, according to an insider who spilled the beans, the Christopher Rufo guy at the Manhattan Institute has really done great work on covering all of this anti-white training.
He's the one, if you remember, just threw out there, you know, think about Walt Disney, one of the biggest companies on the planet.
Another company that he helped expose was Coca-Cola, which I believe they were telling their employees to be less white.
Less white, that's right.
So, here's what you need to do, everybody.
You need to go to the Walt Disney World, drink a Coke.
And you're just embracing and rejecting your whiteness.
And you have mouse ears on too.
I think I'm going to become less white.
I'm going to spend all my weekends in tanning salons.
That's how I'm going to be less white.
Now, so the happiest place on earth is full of white supremacy which must be rooted out.
And apparently there are almost daily memos and readings and panels and seminars all centered around anti-racism.
The employees are bombarded with this stuff.
And remember, content managers have added content advisories to classic films such as Dumbo, Aladdin, and Fantasia because of their racist content.
Well, not just that.
You've also got the Robin Hood film, the cartoon, and one of my favorite films, Swiss Family Robinson, because it is insufficiently woke when it comes to show the pirates being stereotypical Asiatic.
Oh, are they Asian?
Well, maybe they're Philippine pilots, you know, pirates, but who knows?
Well, okay, you know, we finally do have to get to one of these stories that has been kicking around.
We never got to it last couple of times and we should today.
And this is a Mexican source that has tracked the most dangerous cities in the world.
And they have done this because in the top 50, Mexican cities come in the top 6 and they contribute 18 of the top 50 most homicidally active cities in the entire world.
And it starts with, the very worst, is a place called Celaya.
I don't know, in fact, where that is.
But it's got 109 murders per year per 100,000.
And as you mentioned, the first six, they're all in Mexico.
Yes, the top six.
So Mr. Taylor says he doesn't know where it is within the confines of Mexico.
Yes, I beg your pardon.
Thank you for that clarification.
I don't know where that is within... We should look it up.
You mind looking it up?
It's C-E-L-A-Y-A.
But the next two, the next most dangerous, 105 murderers per 100,000, that's one in every thousand person gets killed.
In the United States, instead of about 100, it's maybe 4.5 or 5 per 100,000.
So these places are 20 times as murderous as the United States in general.
The next is Tijuana, just across the border from California, Tijuana.
And the next most dangerous, Juarez, that too is just across the border, just across the border.
And then there is another in the top six, Ensenada.
That's also just across the border.
That's just south of Tijuana.
So that means three of the top six most murderous cities in the world are practically an afternoon stroll from the United States.
Isn't that reassuring?
But I guess we shouldn't brag because number seven on the list is in Estados Unidos.
That's St.
Louis.
St.
Louis.
So, St.
Louis is the most murderous of all the American cities with a murder rate per 100,000 of 87.83.
If you were to take out and do that by race, though, I think that St.
Louis might be the most dangerous city on the planet if you only did it by blacks per 100,000 and then took out whites.
That's probably true.
Because the white average will completely drop down.
Yes.
You know, St.
Louis is about 40.
Actually, St.
Louis is now majority white, believe it or not, according to the latest statistics.
But, unfortunately, one racial group monopolizes the homicides suspects.
Yes, yes.
Well, that's all part of the black privilege here.
But in the top, in the very top, as I say, in the top 50 cities, Mexico comes in top of the league with the top six and 18 in the top 50.
Brazil doesn't do too badly either.
It's got 11 in the top 50 dangerous, most dangerous cities, Brazil.
Then Venezuela does pretty well too.
It's six out of the top 50 most dangerous cities.
And then, and only then do we get South Africa, which says four, four of the most dangerous cities.
Now, my suspicion is that if the data were more accurate, you'd find some more, more African countries, but the statistics are rather poor.
So where is this place?
Sileia is the most violent city in the world.
It is in the central state of Guanajuato.
Guanajuato, forgive me.
I barely passed Spanish in high school, so I didn't take it in college as an undergrad.
Oh dear.
Well, okay, so that's a place not to visit.
No, it's not a place to visit, and nor do you want people visiting your country who reside in Sileia.
Well, so I'm glad we got to this story.
I think it's a very important one.
We still had places to go and things to do, but we have come to the end.
And as usual, it's a great honor for this opportunity to speak to you, whoever you are around the world.
And it will be our pleasure and our joy and a delight to speak with you next week.
