Time Text
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Radio Renaissance.
I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance, and with me is my indispensable co-host, Paul Kersey.
It is April 6th, Year of Our Lord, 2022, and as has become customary, we will begin with comments from our listeners.
Last week, we talked about COVID deaths, and the reported number of COVID deaths in Africa is extremely low.
And people are wondering, why is this?
Are there really not that many people dying?
Or are the deaths simply happening out in the bush and are not reported?
Well, one of our listeners writes in as follows, undercounting is not likely.
In an analysis I performed some time ago, I found there was a rigorous system for counting deaths, because deaths by flu and pneumonia are already tracked very carefully.
That surprises me a little bit about Africa, but so our listener says.
He goes on to say the low COVID death rates are not due to young populations.
Globally, Influenza has much higher mortality rates among the elderly than the young, following the same pattern as COVID.
However, in Africa, the influenza death rate is very high, much higher than in the rest of the world.
My theory about COVID in Africa is that the people who would have died of COVID had already died of flu.
Because Africa still operates under Darwinism, the old and the feeble are weeded out.
In the U.S., operating under anti-Darwinism, we pour all of society's resources into preserving the feeble and the queer and the stupid and anybody else who would not make it under Survival of the Fittest.
So, when the pandemic came through, we had lots of feeble people ready to fall to the disease.
Our listener goes on to point out, this is not the same thing as the Africa is young theory.
Africa is young, but it's predominantly the result of insanely high fertility rates.
But it would be the theory, Africa doesn't get old.
In other words, the people whom COVID would have killed off are not there.
They've already been dying from other things that would have killed them.
Because as you said, it's a continent where the rules outlined by Darwin, survival of the fittest, Have been in place, even with all the outreach by white Western do-gooders.
Yes, that's right.
Of trying to artificially keep and prop up this, uh, well.
Just as we are.
Yes, yes.
Now, the question, of course, is what's the story on genes?
Are there any genetic differences?
If this listener's theories are correct, then genes may not play much of a role.
Of course, you could ask in the United States and in South Africa, why were blacks susceptible at the same rates of whites?
Presumably because under the white-managed medical system, they manage to get old enough to die from COVID.
Anyway, well, thank you very much for that insightful observation, listener.
Now, Mr. Kersey, I believe you had a comment that you're going to convey to us from yet another insightful listener.
I do.
Let me pull it up.
We always love these comments.
We always love getting them.
And I'll tell you what, if you guys wouldn't mind, indulge me.
Send them anything you guys have as I pull up this great listener question comment.
Make sure you send them any comments, any stories you want us to read to talk about to BecauseWeLiveHere at ProtonMail.com.
Once again, that's all one word, BecauseWeLiveHere at ProtonMail.com or Please come to amren.com, A-M-R-E-N dot com, and we have a Contact Us page, and please send us your comments, and I also like to hear corrections.
I'm constantly making mistakes, and there's one I will have to point out in just a moment on this program as well.
So, the floor is yours!
The floor is mine, and thankfully it's due to an astute, devoted listener who says this.
Huge admirer of the weekly AR podcast with you and Jared Taylor.
Every episode of Radio Renaissance provides valuable information and insights, and I especially admire the humor that you two bring to these highly volatile topics without ever trivializing the seriousness of the issues you address.
In light of your acronym B.R.A.W.
for Black Run America, I want to suggest a similar one for the now lamentably unwatchable Academy Awards.
B.R.O.
for Black Run Oscars.
I'm not sure if you're aware of this fact, but the top tier of the production staff for the 2022 Oscars was entirely BIPOC.
I was aware of that.
There was a lot of big stories right up to the actual Academy Awards that celebrated this fact.
And quietly, after the Will Smith slap of Chris Rock, not many people talked about the black run production of the show.
Along with millions of other people, I was appalled to witness Smith's violent outbursts on live broadcast.
Really the show that brought the Camels back, considering the overall tone and quality of the presentation.
What started as a comment I was going to make on a friend's Facebook post became a short essay, a two minute read, and they ended up sharing it with us.
But they just wanted to point out, and we didn't really talk about this incident last week, I don't think it really is worth talking about, what was funny, Mr. Taylor, is some of the reactions of people trying to blame Oh, Donald Trump created this, or white supremacy is what led to this event.
It's like, wait, what?
Or, you know, how can we, or some of the black intelligentsia is saying, we can't have two of the most prominent black men in America doing this type of thing, which just goes to prove stereotypes of impulse control.
I thought Mr. Hood had a great essay at Emrin on the subject.
Yes, he did.
Yes, he did.
As usual.
So, thank you, listener, for that very fine comment.
And I have to confess a correction.
On every annual Ahmaud Arbery Day, people are urged to run 2.23 miles.
And this is to celebrate the great man who was sacrificed on the altar of white supremacy.
I was under the impression that is because he was thought to run 2.23 miles while he was escaping this ferocious lynch mob.
That's not the case.
And as Mr. Kersey probably knew, but in his gentlemanly way, refrained from correcting me, it's because it was on February 23rd that this happened.
That's where the 2.23 comes from.
So, I erred once again, and thank you, listener, for pointing that out.
Here's another comment, and this is a phenomenon that many of you will have noticed.
I think that in our current culture wars, strange black names are being used specifically for signaling what side of the battle line someone is to join.
Giving a child a name like Lacre Vivant is a very strong-arm edict to the child.
Don't dare act white or adopt a white man's culture or value system.
The name itself is a racial branding, a self-imposed othering from the rest of U.S.
culture, an explicit signal of anti-assimilation belligerence.
I don't know if I'd go that far, but that's certainly an interesting point of view.
Black people bemoan the fact that they might experience systemic racialists, a systemic discrimination because of their names.
But I'm convinced the opposite is true.
They give their children these names to create this kind of discrimination.
Why has this practice of giving children ridiculous names become so reinforced?
Possible theories are it enhances social support from a black supremacist subculture, it soothes the parents' feeling of lack of power in the general society by using the child's name to shout up yours to whites, And to draw a discriminatory response from the white culture and hence ensure eternal black victimhood.
So, an interesting point.
I don't know if I agree.
I think it's probably not as carefully thought out about.
It's just we are black and we're going to have our own names and we are different from white people and so there.
But it is certainly true, and it's very helpful sometimes, when the police refuse to release the mugshots, and it's, oh, well, and it's Dontarius was arrested, or Leon Tino was arrested, you have a notion that... Latrina?
Oh yes, I'm afraid there has been a latrina, and I had an aunt who worked in the school system in Alabama, and she said not only did she have a latrina, she had a margarilla in her class.
So it do take all sorts.
Now, another comment.
This is very interesting.
Last week we talked about a Disney executive named Carrie Burke.
She has one pansexual child and one transgender child.
Oh yes, that topic.
And she's a lady who says there are not enough lead characters in Disney content who are, and hang on for this, LGBTQIA2S+.
Okay.
Well, so, our commenter says, yes, the next movie in the Toy Story franchise did have a lesbian kiss.
Now, the scene had been cut because it was not needed and needlessly provocative, but Disney has put it back.
And Disney has shifted its mission from providing fine entertainment to providing social propaganda.
And we were wondering what a pansexual child was.
Now, you were wondering, maybe you just don't grow up, you're sort of a Peter Pan.
Well, Mr. Kersey, that would have been wrong.
Pansexual is defined as relating to, having, or open to sexual activity of many kinds.
Sexually attracted or open to all people, regardless of gender, gender identity, or sexual orientation.
And some people include sex with animals under the rubric of pansexual.
Well, pansexual.
I mean, if we're going to take it seriously, pan means pan, you know, limitless.
How about children, old people, dead people, trees, lawnmowers?
I mean, come on, pan means pan, damn it.
But anyway, what would you think if you had a pansexual child?
That would worry me, but there you go.
Now, Hollywood, of course, is at great pains to be racially correct.
Not just LGBTQIA2S+.
And a New York Times article explains the lengths to which they're going to ensure this perpetual correctness.
Hollywood studios have signed contracts with many companies and non-profits to help them avoid the reputational damage that comes from having a movie or an episode of a TV show face accusations of bias.
How often does that ever happen?
I mean, when has a big movie or some episode of TV just been hooted off the screen with accusations of bias?
I think the last time that I can actually think about this was The Hobbit.
When they decided to do The Hobbit and they put out a casting call for only whites.
There was a big brawl about that.
But they didn't.
The thing did not fail.
It made plenty of money.
I don't think the Hobbit trilogy was good because it should have been a trilogy.
It was a complete moneymaker.
Did you even see any of those?
No, I did not see any of those.
But the idea that somebody's reputation was damaged, in any case, for fear that this might happen, The consulting companies are asked about casting decisions, as well as marketing plans.
And they may also read scripts to search for examples of bias and to scrutinize how characters are positioned in the story.
One consultant said, it's not only about what characters say, it's about what they don't say.
As in, hey, there's not enough agency for this character.
Too much silence from your LGBTQIA2S plus person.
And of course, I bet if you had black characters actually talk like blacks, you'd be in trouble.
But, Michelle K. Sugihara, the executive director of Coalition of Asian Pacifics in Entertainment, a non-profit group, says, it really exploded in the last year or two.
Something that happened in mid-year 2020 had a very significant impact on the income of these groups.
Now, the group called CAPE, Coalition of Asian Pacific Entertainment, is on retainer to some of the biggest Hollywood studios including Netflix, Paramount, Amazon, and Sony to make sure that they toe the line as if they needed people breathing down their throats.
Incredible.
Incredible.
And Sarah Kate Ellis, the president of GLAAD, an LGBTQ advocacy organization, she's missing a few numbers and letters in that description, said her group has been doing consulting work informally for years with the networks and studios, I guess to make sure that the lavender side of things is appropriately depicted.
She finally decided to start charging the studios for their labor, work that she calls billable hours.
Billable hours!
Billable hours!
Just make sure... I mean, are we really to believe that there are just so few homosexual-aware people in Hollywood that they wouldn't know that they would be constantly trampling on the rights of homosexuals and being anti-gay?
I mean, I'm surprised in a lot of ways you've seen a number of cities now with streetwalks.
It's the rainbow flag.
And people have actually gotten, what, hate crime charges for spinning out, I believe it's called, in their cars.
I'm surprised Hollywood doesn't have more street corners that are, because they're the most, you know, homosexual, pansexual, conscious, whatever, whatever letter it is.
But they've got to hire, they've got to hire Kate Ellis, Sarah Kate Ellis, president of GLAAD, to set them straight on the whole crooked path.
Anyway, now this is nothing dotted.
NAACP just put out a report on Hollywood.
This will surprise you given what we have just gone through.
Let me quote from this report.
There's a plethora of films and TV shows that are harming the African-American community.
They are rendering the community vulnerable to a host of debilitating impressions.
Media content informs and misinforms opinions about black people.
The most damaging consequences of the industry's faulty approximation of genuine black experiences is the absorption and adoption of those characterizations in misshapen forms of self-identity worthy of emulation.
That sounded like a sentence Kamala Harris might have pronounced.
In any case, very bad, bad, bad.
Now, here's specific complaints.
Mass media affects young people and black people more than others because they watch more.
That is true.
That is a statistical fact.
They are more dependent on television.
They get most of their education from television, it says.
That's a sad, sad thing to think about.
It is.
Unlike school, television starts in infancy.
In infancy?
Did television start in infancy with you?
I guess you were not born black.
And goes on throughout life.
By the time they go to school, they're pretty well embedded and pretty well absorbed in the world of television, says the NAACP's report.
Now, this is a real head-scratcher for me.
When adults buy into the myths and stereotypes about Black youth, they lower expectations, retreat toward fear, and alienate Black youth, or in mere severe cases, choose not to communicate with youth.
So, Apparently grown-ups look at these horrible things that are depicted on television movies about black people and they retreat toward fear.
They lower expectations and in the most severe cases choose not to communicate with you.
They don't talk to their children because of what they see on television.
Now would you have possibly imagined that movies are making black people do that?
You hadn't read the report, so you never knew.
I did not read the 50-plus page report.
You didn't know.
You didn't know.
And so, they go on to say, black people must be freed from the onslaught of harmful messaging that has inflicted psychosocial trauma for generations.
The industry must now replace the vacuum being filled by toxic, conflict-laden storylines with high-quality, well-produced material that lifts up and supports the community.
Well, they've already hired all these consultants Now the problem?
The problem?
Get this.
In 2020, 91% of film studio CEOs were white and 82% were male.
93% of studio senior management teams were white and 80% were male.
That's obviously problems.
So they say Hollywood's executive suites must be remade.
We demand appreciation for the need for black executives to address the psycho-social consequence of media distortions.
So, the NAACP will work with responsible industry leaders and advise on best practices for applying new thought processes towards serving the black community.
I.e., our hand is out, give us some of that money, give us some, you know, give us some syndicators for life, and give us a pipeline of all that hard, you know, give us money.
And NAACP is going to help them make movies that make black people feel good about themselves.
That's what Tyler Perry's been trying to do.
He's got a massive studio in Atlanta that he's built.
I think he bought...
One of the former forts there in Atlanta to be his studio.
A former fort?
Maybe Fort McPherson?
I might be right about that.
You mean an army base?
Yeah, he bought that.
For heaven's sake.
Gosh, well, he's an embattled black executive, you know.
I'm sure the white man is coming for him.
He needs to defend himself behind the walls of his fort.
But he's going to address the psychosocial consequences of media distortions.
Well, do you think, do you think, the next story makes me wonder, was what happened the fault of Hollywood?
Because I believe you have a story about an unusual funeral.
Was this part of psychosocial consequences of media distortions?
No, it's part of something else that I think it would take a much longer podcast for us to try and figure out what that is.
Probably better brains than ours, but do regale us with this story.
Just to tie a knot around what we just talked about, Tyler Perry did purchase 132 acres of Fort McPherson in Atlanta.
Wow.
Yeah, that's where his studio is.
132 acres!
Yeah!
So, you know, he makes all those Medea, I'm sure you've seen all of them, the Medea movies.
I've never seen one.
I should want one for my own anthropological education.
Yes, I've never seen a Tyler Perry movie.
I've heard about him for years.
They get terrible Rotten Tomato reviews from critics, but, you know, obviously his audience loves him and he's able to buy and, you know, I don't know if he's a billionaire, but I know he's... I know he's one of the richest black folk in the country.
Oh yeah, multi, multi, multi-billionaire.
And I wouldn't call that affirmative action either.
No, no, no.
He made it entirely on his own.
God bless him.
I think he's playing to his audience, but speaking plain to your audience... Yes.
Here's the headline.
Why Are People Worried About How I Sent My Son Home?
Family Frustrated by Criticism of Final Show for Murdered Loved One.
That's ambiguous.
You're probably looking at it like, what is that about?
I couldn't figure that out at all.
That's my baby child.
That's my son, said Markel Morrow's mother, Parker.
Why Are People Worried About How I Sent My Son Home?
That was the subtitle.
So I'm sure it piqued your interest.
What are we talking about here?
Washington, D.C.
Michelle, I'm sorry, Markel Morrow was known to many by the stage name Goonoo.
What?
Goonoo.
Goonoo, okay.
Maybe it's Goon, Goonoo.
I am not hip.
I am not dope to the rap scene, so I don't know the answer to this.
Well, Mr. Kersey, if you are not hip, I am certainly not hop.
Roll snare drum.
For anyone out there who wants to know, it's G-O-O-N-E-W.
So I'm not even going to try and figure out what that is.
But the 24-year-old rapper, he was shot and killed in Prince George's County.
A neighboring county.
Yeah, one of the blackest counties.
I think it's got the highest per capita black income in the country, and it's also got a pretty high homicide rate.
But anyways, Morrow's family.
Held what was called his final show at Bliss Nightclub in Northeast DC this past Sunday.
The showing has garnered a lot of criticism and attention, but his family says the service was exactly what Goon knew would have wanted.
Quote, that's my baby child.
That's my son.
Why are people worried about how I sent my son home?
Well, now we're about to find out what that means.
Tweets on Monday and Tuesday following the posted video range from stunned users sharing they felt traumatized or disturbed to others urging strangers to be respectful of whoever's choice it was to hold the event.
The chatter centered around the family's decision to send the rapper off in style.
Uh, and it's left, uh, it's left many people, uh, frustrated.
Quote, nobody will ever be to look down on my son, and I mean that in the most humblest way.
Video of Moro's body on a stage at Bliss in Northeast DC is circulated online.
So they're burying what exactly was happening.
This dude's dead.
He was shot.
He was, he was, he was, he was, he was a victim of murder.
And his body is propped up on stage at this hip-hop rap concert.
Standing up, right?
Exactly.
It shows a crowd of people dancing and celebrating below Mauro's body, hoisted above, standing upright.
In a statement posted to their Instagram page, Bliss Club DC said they were never made aware of what would transpire.
However, Tressa and Brianna Dunn of Dunn & Sons Funeral Services, the funeral home behind the final show, Told WSA9 they did inform the club of the family's plans.
Quote, yeah, we did contract with Bliss, so we did inform them.
Well, that's just a particularly exuberant version of the open coffin, right?
Open casket?
It's the open coffin hip-hop dance party around GONU's body.
It's got sort of that That Haitian-style vibe to it.
You think maybe they're doing some sort of curses or who knows what?
Some incantations?
The family said they planned his show at another venue and on Saturday the venue cancelled on them, which is why they moved his final show to Bliss.
I'm sure they actually had that initial venue cancelled because they said, listen, We don't want a corpse propped up on stage, a guy who was shot in some sort of drive-by shooting incident.
Not to laugh, not to laugh, Mr. Kersey.
This is a serious occasion.
He's sending her baby home!
Morrow's sister Patrice is asking people to remember they've lost someone they love and that her brother's murder remains unsolved like so many that occur in Prince George's County.
Quote, they're forgetting that we still wake up, that we lack human decency.
End quote, as I'm sure she was twerking near her brother's body.
Oh gosh, oh gosh.
That's too much.
Perhaps, well... I've seen no images of this, but I don't... I don't plan to look for any images or any videos.
I'm not looking for them either.
But while we're on the subject of showbiz, were you aware that the Grammys just happened?
They sort of happened without my knowing about them, but the Grammys just happened.
And an American reggae band named, it's in full caps, S-O-J-A.
Now, I don't know how that's pronounced.
Soja, or S-O-J-A.
It became, it won the Grammy for the Best Reggae Album.
Best Reggae Album.
This just happened on Sunday.
Yes, yay Soja!
It's a Virginia-based band, formed in 1997.
So these people are not just Johnny-come-lately pikers, but They're white!
They're white!
A reggae band!
A reggae band!
Well... That can't be.
Well, apparently... Well, that was the reaction of all the disappointed music fans took to social media to voice their outrage.
With many pointing out the racial disparity of a white band winning an award in a reggae music category.
That's our category.
It's exclusively ours.
This is outrage, outrage, outrage.
I mean, of course, if a black person wins an award in opera or classical music, nobody's going to complain.
But a white man in reggae?
Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy.
Well, we are in bad, bad trouble now.
White people winning reggae contests.
Now, this is something that is very serious and important.
And this was an interview in Figaro that just came out with a former French intelligence chief, Pierre Brochand.
He warns that unless Europe and France radically change their policies on mass immigration, civil war could break out.
Yes.
Groschand, who served as director of the French DGSE, that's their intelligence service from 2002 to 2008, and was also later ambassador to Hungary and to Israel, and this is a heavy-hitting guy, made the comments during an interview with the French paper Le Figaro.
He says, all multicultural societies are doomed.
In such situations, it happens that minorities are violent winners and majorities are placid losers.
This is not an interesting turn of phrase.
He says the negative impact on mass immigration in France can no longer be dismissed because it is increasingly difficult to prevent the French from seeing what they see and also because a breakthrough personality has suddenly appeared in the otherwise formulaic world of politics who has encouraged them to open their eyes.
Now, who could that be?
Of course, is Eric Zemmour.
I like this term, the otherwise formulaic world of politics.
Everybody else just babbles nonsense.
Eric Zemmour, he is against the Great Replacement.
He wants to send them back.
The ex-Intel chief predicts that if Emmanuel Macron, the current guy, wins the presidential election and fails massively to alter his approach to immigration, civil war could ensue.
This gradual upheaval of the French population, if not the only challenge we face, is the only one that directly threatens civil peace on our territory.
He warns that Muslim migrants and others from outside of Europe have a spirit of post-colonial revenge.
That's great.
Yes.
Can you imagine a politician in the United States saying these things?
Well, you know, I will say this.
The day may come, but there's more to it.
He also warned that the migrant population significantly higher birth rate and the fact that younger generations born in France are even less integrated with French society than their parents.
Entirely true.
The longer they stay, the angrier they get.
It's like Americans.
The better they do, the ones who make money, become college professors, they absolutely hate us.
Absolutely hate us.
They're post-colonial avengers.
I guess they are.
For the revenge of their ancestors.
That's actually a really good line.
Yes.
Post-colonial revenge.
And he says the only solution Is the one proposed by French presidential candidate Eric Zemmour, namely re-migration.
Oh yeah.
Re-migration is what they call it.
All my accumulated experience makes me foresee a dark, even very dark future for our children and grandchildren.
At best, they are heading towards an unsuspected collapse of their quality of life, which I would call an implosion.
At worst, we are leading them to a terrible confrontation, which I call an explosion.
Collapse of quality of life is implosion.
Terrible confrontations, explosion.
Most likely there will be a combination of the two amid growing confusion.
And he made these remarks amidst yet another wave of migrant riots.
He goes on to say, since last week, the cities of Sevran and Aulnay-sur-Bois in the suburbs of Paris have been the scenes of urban guerrilla warfare.
Each time, it is incidents between police officers trying to enforce the law and violent multi-recidivist criminals who were the initial cause of riots, shootings, multiple fires, with ambushes set up against the police squads called in as reinforcements.
Sound familiar?
Ever heard of such a thing?
Now, this article goes on to say, a recent poll commissioned by Harris found that the majority of French people are concerned about European white and Christian populations being threatened with extinction as a result of Muslim immigration.
Something positive is going on in France.
Something is brewing.
Something is certainly brewing.
And speaking of brewing, I don't think we're going to get a chance to talk about it, but we were once asked who would we want to have Dinner with a person we admired.
I believe I said Pat Buchanan.
I believe you said Viktor Orban.
Congratulations to his party.
What's happening in Hungary is very exciting news considering the winds that I think we're seeing are blowing the United States and in France and in a lot of the Western world.
There is this... There is ferment.
Yes!
There is ferment.
And I like to think that in our own small way, Mr. Kersey, you and I are stoking the fires of ferment.
Well, you know, a re-migration thing is good, but I'll tell you what would retroactively turn this country around in a blink of an eye is just retroactively implement revoking of birthright citizenship.
That would be a remarkable and wonderful thing.
Now, I believe, unlike this Muslim remigration, I believe Josh Hawley has had some strong words for the Department of Homeland Security, which seems to have other plans.
Oh, they have other plans.
They've got the AT&T plan.
Maybe the Sprint plan, Sprint Wireless.
Rep Senator, I'm sorry, Republican Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri, he grilled the Biden administration on the predicted migrant surge this spring and whether the DHS is planning to give free cell phones to illegal immigrants.
I should warn you that it was just confirmed by the Biden press secretary that yes, they are doing this.
They're going to give them free cell phones.
Now, what's that for?
I guess they'll reach out and touch someone and they can figure out where their family is
or where they're located throughout the United States.
Some of them are gonna cross the border just for that.
I would.
Cell phones, if you especially get an iPhone, that's a great thing.
You can become a TikTok star.
That's probably way too dope talk right there.
Do you know what TikTok is?
I do know what TikTok is.
Come on, you sprouts think we geezers know nothing!
It's a shame there's not an Amren TikTok channel.
Anyways, Holly Probe, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, in the Wednesday letter pointed to reports the department is pulling Department of Veteran Affairs doctors to treat sick, illegal immigrants at the border and may provide migrants with free phones.
Spoiler alert, it's true, the latter part.
The Biden administration has announced it intends to rescind its Title 42 order, which will only exacerbate the crisis at the southern border.
At the same time, new reports and leaked documents suggest the Department of Homeland Security plans to divert resources from our veterans so that it can provide free services to illegal immigrants.
Senator wrote that the U.S.
Customs and Border Protection reported over 2 million encounters with illegal aliens Crossing the southern border in 2021.
Now, we're supposed to worry about Ukraine.
Well, at the same time, we have a virtually unchecked invasion that it seems like the Biden administration is not only trying to encourage, but is actively out there diverting resources from, as stated, the Department of Veterans Affairs.
So, all these veterans went and they died, maybe lost arms, maybe PTSD for other countries' borders, while ours, guess what?
The doctor that was working on you yesterday is now at the border.
Helping out some sick illegal alien.
That's pretty sick, folks.
Title 42 was an executive order that turned away illegal immigrants carrying infectious diseases trying to enter the country.
That was implemented by Trump.
Effectively sealed the border.
Effectively ended immigration.
This was passed during COVID.
And as we now see, well, it's, you know, in a lot of municipalities, Americans are still being forced to wear masks.
But now, Title 42, we don't care if you have COVID.
Come on in.
We'll give you a free cell phone, too.
Will we give him even a COVID test?
I think that's done.
That's all finished.
Free cell phone replaces COVID test.
Yeah, you know, again, Holly had a few more words to say.
In the words of one CBP official, we're going to take medical services away from people that really deserve it, our veterans, who went to combat to give free medical attention to illegal migrants, end quote.
Mr. Taylor, we'll move on to another story, but this really is going to be one of the big issues.
I think, you know, the base understands there's something wrong.
Again, this is a nonpartisan public podcast, but it's pretty obvious that the only people who are going to do something about it are elected Republicans or people who are being pushed further and further to the right to see that there's something sinister going on at the border with all of this.
I have a friend told me about on some flights that you'll see all these people dressed the same with a duffel bag.
And they don't speak any English.
They're escorted onto airplanes.
They're not even listed on the flight manifest.
And they will not speak to anyone.
And then they're transported to cities like Atlanta, to Birmingham, to cities in Florida.
And then when they land, they're escorted off quickly and they have some sort of liaison.
that escorts them.
And are these thought to be illegal?
Oh, of course, because it's people in Tucson, San Antonio that have been being destroyed.
Yeah, exactly.
Spread the wealth.
Yeah, exactly.
Exactly.
Yeah.
So this is, this is going to be the, you know, it's gonna be interesting to watch who emerges as the spokesman against this stuff.
Well, who is going to be America's Amour?
I think there is, it's ready.
People want this type of stuff.
Oh gosh, we are ready.
Yes, we are ready.
And I think we certainly deserve a some more, whether we'll get one.
We'll see.
Now, I have a good news item for you.
I love great news.
Is it good or great?
Well, this is good news.
Okay.
It's good news.
I mean, it's almost great in the current context.
A California judge has ruled that California's diversity law requiring corporations to have racial minorities or members of the LGBTQ plus community serve on their board of directors is unconstitutional.
That's great news.
How about?
Oh, that's great news.
Okay.
Yeah, I think that's great news.
The judge who handed down the ruling just last Friday concluded the law violated California's Constitutional Equal Protection Clause.
Judicial Watch filed suit.
Hail Judicial Watch!
This was signed into law by Governor Gavin Newsom in 2020.
The law requires that corporate boards of publicly traded companies whose main office is in California must have a racial or ethnic minority or a member of the LGBTQ community serving on their boards by the end of 2021.
And by the end of 2022, two of the aforementioned underrepresented communities, if there are a board of directors of four to nine and such minority directors, four on three, there should be three of them if there are more than nine directors.
The state had argued in the court filings that this did not constitute discrimination.
You cannot fault them for lack of imagination or for lack of trying.
This is not discrimination.
We're just going to make you hire one of these people.
That's not discrimination.
Well, hooray for the California courts.
We'll see how long that lasts.
Meanwhile, California is declining in not-so-surprising ways.
Did you know that during the first year of COVID-19, Los Angeles County lost 160,000 residents, more than any other county in the nation?
But LA County has about 10 million people, so the per capita loss was slightly more than 1% compared to San Francisco, which lost 6.7% of its population.
6.7%?
Yes.
And a lot of those were actually blacks who were moving back south.
Well, and a whole lot of people who've decided that the city has become utterly unlivable.
Well, courtesy of the son of two convicted left-wing terrorists.
Yes, that's right.
There's no lock-up rule.
You know, shoplift all you want so the local drugstore shuts down.
New York City lost 6.9% of its population.
6.9%.
How many in San Francisco again?
Excuse me?
San Francisco lost how many? 6.7.
And of course, San Francisco is significantly smaller in size.
Significantly smaller, yes.
But California as a whole saw a net loss of 262,000 residents between July 1st, 2020 and July 1st, 2021.
And Los Angeles lost about 180,000 to domestic migration.
And the state lost a seat in Congress for the first time in history because of sluggish population.
However, it did have natural increase.
More births than deaths.
This is in California?
This is in California.
I think we know who was responsible for this.
Well, you tell me.
I've got a couple guesses.
Well, I don't know.
We know that you have birthrights.
It certainly wasn't white people.
No, you have Chinese who come there.
For the hotels.
Oh, but they go home.
They go home.
But their kids get to be American citizens if they're born there, or illegal aliens.
But they go home.
No, it is primarily, I'm sure, Hispanics.
Of course.
These children.
But no, the birth tourism people, they're born there, but they don't stay.
So they don't get counted, I don't think, in the population figures.
What percent of California right now is white?
I think it, I looked that up just the other day.
It's about 40% white.
It's still the largest number.
Hispanics are 35%.
There are more whites than anybody else, but whites are a minority.
The 35% and the 15% which are Asian, they take Asians and Hispanics together and you've got half the state.
Okay.
But in any case, the number of international migrants have been steadily declining.
And listen to this.
Former Southern California resident Alfredo Malatesta who immigrated to Los Angeles from Peru as a child.
He had this to say, I started seeing the homeless population increasing and nothing being done about it.
It was starting to remind me of what I left behind many years before.
He and his wife Erin have moved from Santa Clarita to Tennessee.
Oh, joy!
Tennessee.
So, Tennessee now has a Peruvian and his wife, Erin.
Now, one thing I'm sure that is driving them out is the Los Angeles school system.
Now, if you miss more than 10% of your classes in Los Angeles School District, you are marked as chronically absent.
Okay, chronically absent.
Yes.
Guess what percentage of blacks are chronically absent?
That means they have missed more than 10% of their course.
I would say greater than 45%.
77%.
Yes.
It's good parenting.
You were right.
Latinos, 49%.
So both, okay, so my 45% number was great.
You covered them both.
I'm gonna go with whites, though.
I'm gonna say it's bad.
I would say it's above 30%.
Well, pretty close.
It was 29%.
Oh, okay.
29%.
Okay.
So you get that usual pattern.
Now, Asians have not been broken out.
They've not been broken out.
Probably around that 10 to 15.
Yeah, who knows?
We don't know.
We don't know, but we can guess.
We can guess, and we can make a pretty good guess.
Now, the frightening thing about Los Angeles, and this was something that was sent to me by one of our listeners who keep tabs on things, is how much better Asians are doing in school than whites.
This is really startling.
This is the percentage of students in Los Angeles schools meeting academic requirements.
And all the races are broken up by whether or not they are economically disadvantaged.
I think that's a euphemism for poor.
Correct.
Or not economically disadvantaged, which means middle class.
Well, middle class Asians, 80% meet standard. 80%.
And the next group after them is middle-class Filipinos.
That's 57%.
And finally, number three in the group after Asians and Filipinos, middle-class whites, 53%.
Wow.
Only a little over half are up to snuff.
That's pretty awful.
That is pretty awful.
Remember, Asians are 80% Filipinos.
I mean, Filipinos?
Do you think of them as whiz kids?
Apparently the ones in LA are, compared to Hawaii.
I won't answer that one.
57% as opposed to 53%.
And then when you keep going down the line, middle class blacks, 20%.
80% are not up to snuff.
At economically disadvantaged, that is to say poor blacks, 13%.
This whole chart here, it is eye-opening and it is depressing, but no wonder people are leaving Los Angeles.
If I were there, I'd be leaving it too.
Now, I do want to make a public announcement.
As you know, Mr. Kersey, and perhaps as our listeners know, I think that the trial of the McMichaels And Roddy Bryan, the people in the Ahmaud Arbery case, it was a terrible, terrible miscarriage of justice.
And finally, the Michael family has a chance to tell its own story with its very own website.
And if any of you would like to go to mcmichaeltrial.com, it's all one word, m-c-m-i-c-h-a-e-l-t-r-i-a-l, mcmichaeltrial.com, you can read an essay by Lee McMichael, who was the wife of one of the current convicts and the mother of another.
I hope that you can go there, get their point of view, and also make a donation.
These people, as I say, are terrible victims of our completely crazy racial policies.
Agreed.
And you're one of the few people, and you're the one who's really made that clarion call for honesty, veracity in the case of what transpired with the legal lynching.
Oh, it was absolutely outrageous.
Absolutely outrageous.
Those guys are going to spend their lives in jail for doing what they thought was a public service.
Now, moving right along, the National Fraternal Order of Police That is America's largest organization of law enforcement officers has counted 101 officers shot in the line of duty as of April 1st this year.
101 including 17 fatally so far in 2022.
These figures mark a 43% increase compared to the number of officers shot during the same period of 2021.
43% increase.
percent increase compared to the number of officers shot during the same period of 2021,
43 percent increase at a 63 percent increase compared to 2020.
FOB President Patrick Yoise says the violence directed at law enforcement officers is unlike
anything I've seen in my 36 years of law enforcement.
He says last year there were more officers shot in the line of duty ever since the National Fraternal Order of Police began collecting this data.
He also points out something that's very important.
And there's something we should think about too when we hear these reports of a warm Chicago weekend, 56 shot, 10 die.
He says the lethality of these attacks would be much greater, but for dramatic improvements in medical trauma science and anti-ballistic technology.
These guys are wearing their vests.
He points out that in just this year, there've already been 19 ambush style attacks.
Last year was the biggest year.
We've talked about this a lot before.
In 2020, there were, let's see...
Well, of those 19 attacks, I don't have the figure, but it represents a 36% increase over the same period in 2021.
Correct.
I'm sorry, I do not have it.
I have it right here, actually.
I just pulled the story up.
It's one that Intentional, this is from ABC7 Eyewitness News out of Chicago.
2021 marks the highest total recorded by the agency since 1995 for intentional killings.
73.
It died in ambushes?
Yep.
That must be just a terrifying thing.
You are minding your own business, you're not even face-to-face with some Fallon who's resisting arrest or going for his gun.
You are just sitting there minding your own business.
Somebody comes up and shoots you or as it happens in of course in France that this former intelligence officer chief was talking about that you there's some sort of 9-1-1 call you show up and all it is is an ambush.
They open fire just trying to kill you.
In any case in 2021 alone There were 346 officers shot in the line of duty.
346!
That's a lot of people shot in bullets.
63 of whom were killed.
That number of 346 was up from 312 officers shot in 2020.
47 killed.
These numbers keep creeping up.
whom were killed. That number of 346 was up from 312 officers shot in 2020, 47 killed.
These numbers keep creeping up. And it looks as though 2022 is going to set yet another
record.
Now, what you just said, though, about police and these trauma centers, I thought about
that a lot. And you can read about just in a lot of these cities, you have some of the
best trauma centers in the world.
Oh yeah!
Like Baltimore.
Imagine if Johns Hopkins wasn't in Baltimore and the trauma center they have there, University of Maryland Trauma Center, some of the best surgeons.
Why I bring this up is because an Indian This doctor who works as a trauma surgeon at Johns Hopkins was actually shot this past weekend.
Yeah, that's true.
As he was walking to actually go to his shift.
He was shot by a couple of, as our late friend Colin Flary would call them, the youths.
One of the fellas.
One of the fellas.
And a lot of great euphemisms.
Yes, one of the fellas.
Yeah, but no, it's... It's awful.
Agreed.
Well, here is a story, just reading about it gives me trauma.
But, and I've had this on the lineup for a couple of weeks and I just never got around to it, but I must drag us through this.
Go ahead.
When Sharice Mitchell became a foster parent early in 2019, she told the officials responsible for vetting her, this was in New York City, that she was separated from her husband and had not been in contact with him for more than a year.
She's a foster parent, okay?
Now, caseworkers who frequently visited her apartment in the Bronx over the next two years saw no sign of a husband.
He was Kareem Mitchell.
That was because his belongings were packed away, his pictures had been taken down, and he was hiding out in nearby hotels whenever they came around.
I guess they let him know when they're coming.
Well, just last month, The Mitchells, husband and wife, were charged with sex trafficking eight young women after authorities discovered that the couple used the foster care system as a pipeline for prostitution.
New York disqualifies foster parents and applicants if anyone living in their house is listed as a sex offender registry.
Mr. Mitchell had served four and a half years in federal prison for transporting a 17-year-old girl to encage in prostitution and was registered as a sexually violent offender.
Mr. Mitchell used social media accounts to post photos of the women working for him, along with boastful captions.
Now, I don't know what the boastful captions were, but this is just disgusting to me.
These people are taking these foster children and pimping them out.
Oh my gosh.
It just curdles your blood to think of this.
And the agency was called Little Flower Children and Family Services of New York.
Little Flower Children.
Oh, goodness.
It's a non-profit that provides foster care services under a contract with the city.
I looked at its website.
Its clientele appears to be overwhelmingly black.
But, no matter what the race of children like this, they finally think they're going to a foster home and good grief, this happens to them.
Well, I finally got that story off my chest.
I hope I never find another one like it.
Now, tell me what white people do for Lent.
Well, they don't eat fish on Friday.
There are other things they don't do.
So, headline reads, Chicago area church announces it is fasting from whiteness during Lent.
Fasting from whiteness.
I'm not Catholic, so I didn't give up anything for Lent, but this church did.
Church in suburban Chicago said it was fasting from whiteness during Lent, that 40-day period preceding Easter, by abstaining from performing hymns composed or written by white musicians.
First United Church of Oak Park announced on its website that it is, quote, Doing a mix of giving something up and taking something on.
In our worship services throughout Lent, we will not be using any music or anything written or composed by white people.
Our music will be drawn from the African American spirituals tradition, from South African freedom songs, from Native American traditions, and many, many more.
It said, for Lent it's our prayer that in our spiritual disciplines we may grow as Christians united in the body of Christ with people of all ages, nations, races, and origins.
House of Worship also erected a fasting from whiteness sign on its front lawn.
What do you think people think when they see that?
Fasting from whiteness?
I don't know.
Which reported that the church is using reflections and thoughts called Evotionals for the fast.
Evotionals.
Okay?
Evotionals.
Okay.
So this is 20 Point ESA.
They write about this.
This is in the New York Post.
So it's a hodgepodge of stories from different places on this.
The outlet obtained alleged screenshots of a March 29th entry titled, Kindness and Privilege.
Quote, we honor our fast from whiteness this Lent by prioritizing the voice of Bruce Ray's chow through a chapter of his book in defense of kindness.
Ray's Chao authored the 2016 book, quote, Don't Be an Asshat, an official handbook for raising parents and children, and 2013's, quote, But I Don't See You as Asian, Curating Conversations About Race.
So, Don't Be an Asshat and Curating Conversations About Race, two great books.
I think I'll give them up for Lent.
Yeah, well, so people who oppose violent protests speaking from a place of privilege, they should therefore refrain from trying to stop them.
Quote, for many of us, being uncomfortable about public protests or what we perceive as aggressive expressions of frustration simply identifies our privilege and our ability to shield ourselves from the struggles that others are facing.
That's from Ray's Chao book.
This is typical of the goofy things white people do.
Well, it's jackass.
It's jackass hattery, if you ask me, so.
What did you call it?
Jackass hattery.
Don't be an asshat.
Jackass.
What is an asshat?
Don't be an asshat.
I'm an asshat to my race.
You might be an asshat to your race, but asshat is a derogatory term for somebody who's just being an asshat.
As I point out, I am neither hip nor hop, so I don't know about these things.
Anyway, so like you said, I'm sure I won't be fasting from whiteness and I encourage everybody to listen to this podcast.
I'll be feasting on whiteness.
Yes, according to you of whiteness.
I do it every day.
Meanwhile, back to Midnight Basketball.
No.
No, this was a Sunday night basketball game at the Stronghold Christian Church in Lithonia, Georgia.
They had an amateur athletic union game, and after it ended, several of the youth basketball players beat the heck out of a referee.
About three players from one team, along with two adults, approached the referee, then chased him all around the court before repeatedly punching and kicking him.
He was beaten to the ground and reportedly needed 30 stitches after he was taken to the hospital.
The cops did respond.
Senior Pastor Benjamin Gater said, We open our doors to serve our community, and our goal is to provide an atmosphere conducive for enjoyment, enrichment, Et cetera.
Well, they got some et cetera on that evening.
They sure did.
Now, from the video, which is quite graphic, it's really quite remarkable.
This poor guy, the ref in his striped shirt, he is just set upon by this feral mob.
And it's clear that both teams are all black.
The refs are black.
The spectators are black.
I checked the website of the church.
It's run by blacks.
Nice gym.
And there are photos of the Sunday service showing typical exuberance.
But what's going on?
Attack a black, attack a referee?
Well, anyway, different strokes for different folks.
And that was in Georgia, you said?
This was in Lithuania, Georgia.
Okay.
Yes.
Now, and here's an interesting article.
The article was called The Unbearable Whiteness of Coffee.
Well, coffee is unbearably white.
Now, this is from a website called Fast Company, which is about companies, and it's not a particularly black-oriented site, but this is... No, Fast Company is one of, for those not aware, that's one of the, it was at one point, one of the top business magazines, periodicals.
Very important periodical.
Let me read from the article.
For too long, much of black history has been kept out of the textbooks.
The coffee industry is a prime example.
Black history and coffee history are deeply intertwined.
Coffee was stolen from African plantations by Europeans in the 1600s, incorporated into the transatlantic slave trade in the 1700s.
Slaves?
Coffee?
And today is a $100 billion industry run mostly by white executives.
Whitewashed coffee shops opening in black neighborhoods are often an early sign of impending gentrification.
Well, Coffee Black, that's coffee with instead of an O for coffee it's got an X, Coffee Black is a fast-growing brand run by husband and wife team Bartholomew Jones and Renata Henderson launched in early 2020.
It harnesses the power of hip-hop and social media to make coffee black again.
How do you harness the power of hip-hop?
That's what you need to actually understand hip-hop.
Listen to this.
At a shop in Memphis, appropriately named the Anti-Gentrification Coffee Club, Coffee Black invites visitors, yes, to sip a fresh pour-over while enjoying a cypher.
You know what a cypher is?
That's a freestyle hip-hop session by local artists.
Henderson says black women were the original baristas on the planet.
But when I walk into most coffee shops, people look at me as if I'm an outsider.
I wonder what his hairstyle is.
He must just really be weird looking.
He says, I want black people to come into my shop and feel dignified.
Man, that's what I want to feel like when I'm in a coffee shop is dignified.
I just want some coffee.
In any case.
Coffee Black put the story smack on the middle of its coffee bags.
Text on the back explains how the coffee plant was stolen from Africa by two Dutch spies shortly after the first enslaved Africans arrived in Jamestown, Virginia.
Is that true?
Nah.
I looked this up.
I thought, where the heck did they get that?
Well, apparently, according to Wikipedia, which is no friend of the white man, Evidence of knowledge of the coffee tree and coffee drinking first appeared in the late 15th century.
That's the 1400s.
That's about 200 years before slaves were brought to Virginia.
Sufi Imam Muhammad ibn Sa'id al-Dabhani is known to have imported coffee from Ethiopia to Yemen.
So apparently it did come from Ethiopia.
It was first exported out of Yemen by Somali merchants, so the original thieves weren't two Dutch spies, they were Somalis!
And one of the most important of the early writers on coffee was Abd al-Qadir al-Jaziri, who in 1587 compiled a work tracing the history and legal controversies of coffee.
He reported that Sheikh Jamal al-Bindabani, the Mufti of Aden, was one of the first to adopt the use of coffee around 1454.
So, these people just make it up as they go.
I will not partake in that coffee if I ever find myself going to the Bass Pro Shop there in Memphis in the Pyramid.
We are running out of time.
You're kidding.
We sure are.
Look at that.
So, ladies and gentlemen, it's our honor and our pleasure to speak with you every week and it will be our honor and pleasure to speak with you next week as well.
