Time Text
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Radio Renaissance.
I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance, and with me is the indispensable, and today certainly incandescent, Paul Kersey.
And I'd like to begin with a comment from a listener who lives far away.
He says, love the Ameren podcast.
I eagerly look forward to it.
I'm thousands of miles and oceans distant, but it has relevance for and brings hope to racially aware white people the world over.
A small complaint.
I was surprised you have not mentioned the Ian Cranston trial.
This guy was thrown under the proverbial bus of restorative justice, like Derek Chauvin, the McMichaels, and their neighbor, but has received disappointing little attention from any dissident site.
Meanwhile, the mainstream media has drawn in court of the shooter being sure to remind us constantly that it was the killing of a black man by a white man and claiming that the black was innocently paying compliments to Cranston's fiancée.
Although early reports suggest that he was repeatedly and aggressively harassing her, this angle has now been totally scrubbed.
Now you were familiar with that case, were you not?
Correct.
We didn't follow it in great detail because it was not covered by television.
When there's a case like this that's on television, we have a reporter that watches every day and writes down the evidence.
Wow.
And if you can't, if you really can't follow the trial, it's very hard to glean from ordinary newspapers what was going on.
So we did not cover it the way we have some other trials.
But the Cranston defense, Cranston was the name of the young man, they argued that their client acted in self-defense, noting that the black had punched Cranston twice in the head before he shot him.
The black, I like the way you put that.
And that Cranston feared significant injury if he kept punching him.
But the prosecutors argued that the single shot was 30 seconds after Washington punched Cranston.
And they said he could not have been fearing for his life during that period of time.
Also, they said he was drinking while carrying a weapon, which you're not supposed to do.
Cranston's attorney told jurors that Cranston and his friends tried to de-escalate the situation during those 30 seconds, and he fired the gun only to prevent Washington from punching him again.
Also, that during the 30 seconds, Washington was punching Cranston's friend and pushing his fiancée.
So it's one of those sort of, he says, and it's very hard to know, part of it was on video, part of it was not, part of it was recorded, part of it wasn't, but to me this is almost the most important thing and suggests that justice was not done when the white man was found guilty.
Protesters have marched around downtown Bend, Oregon, that's where it happened, every night since Tuesday, and whenever this was written, and then promised to do so every night of the trial.
So they were there.
Intimidation.
Yes, that is absolute intimidation.
And a couple of dozen protesters even interrupted a Bend City Council meeting to confront the city councilors about what they were thinking about.
I mean, if they had anything to do with it.
Obviously, you had very aggressive blacks turning this into a racial case.
Members of Washington's family, they said they didn't believe that 10 years, they got a 10-year sentence, that this was enough.
That Cranston should spend the rest of his life in jail.
None of this forgiveness you ever get from blacks.
This is Bend, Oregon.
Bend, Oregon.
Do you want to know what percentage?
I do know.
It's one half percent black.
Okay, so you got it.
I just looked it up real quick on the census data.
My guess is that full half percent has been outraging ever since this happened.
And yeah, just half a percent of the population is out there marching around the courthouse.
Where do they get time off to do this?
They're probably the 50% that's on welfare in that town.
Well, remind me, wasn't Oregon a state that didn't allow blacks to be citizens up until about 1869 or something?
Well, it didn't.
It had two votes in its constitution when it was being established as a state.
And one was whether or not to allow slavery.
This is before the war.
And they said absolutely not.
They voted that down.
But they voted down, by an even larger margin, the idea that any black should be allowed to come live in the state.
That was Oregon in its heyday.
That's not the Oregon of now.
Maybe more so eastern Oregon, which wants to join greater Idaho.
That's right.
Eastern Oregon has got much more sense than people who live in Portland.
Bend, I would think, would be a fairly conservative place with so few blacks, but in any case.
No, the trouble is, I don't know enough of the details of that trial, what happened, to take a very strong position on it.
The only thing that really does suggest to me that probably it was not a just verdict was this intimidation.
I mean, who knows?
Who knows what really happened?
It's one of those really tricky things.
Unless you see how the evidence comes in, you don't know what the jury's going to think.
Well, I'll tell you what, why don't we go ahead and see if we can utilize our listeners to help us out with this.
If anyone has been following this and can give us more details, or could give us a synopsis in a quick, succinct email, please shoot it over to BecauseWeLiveHereAtProtonMail.com.
Once again, that's all one word, BecauseWeLiveHereAtProtonMail.com.
If you've got anything else you want to shoot over, story tips, ideas, corrections, send them to me, or you can send them to Amren.com, A-M-R-E-N.com at the Contact Us page.
And yes, if you have any insights on this trial, any reason to think that the jury arrived at a fair verdict, an unfair verdict, please do let us know.
Another comment.
In your latest podcast, you asked, what city might go the way of Detroit?
On the October 14th podcast episode of The Glenn Show, Glenn Lowry, he's a black professor at Brown, pretty fair-minded guy.
I have a lot of respect for him.
I agree.
And Matt Rosenberg discussed whether Chicago could go the way of Detroit.
Rothberg said Chicago's too big for that.
Well, I'm not sure.
He said a more likely candidate would be Philadelphia.
I believe Philadelphia is beating their 1990s murder rates.
Most cities have had large increases in murder, but they've not yet broken their all-time records of the early 90s.
Philadelphia is not messing around.
It has broken its all-time records, and that's true.
I looked it up last year.
There were 561 killings in 1960.
Guess how many killings there were.
In Philadelphia?
Yes.
Okay, you said 560 this past year.
560 this past year.
1960, how many?
I would say about 350.
150.
Oh my goodness.
year 1960 how many I I would say about 350 150 when thought my goodness yes one
Yes, 150.
I believe the city was majority white at that point too I believe it was
The last high, the last high was 500.
That was in 1990.
I actually knew that.
The nation as a whole topped out about 1993-1994.
They peaked early.
I actually knew that.
The nation as a whole topped out about 1993, 1994.
They peaked early.
Meanwhile, we have three new top Democrats.
After all, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, they decided to step aside.
And who is going to be the new Speaker of the House?
Oh, I'm sorry.
He's not going to be the Speaker.
He's the leader of the outboarder.
Correct.
That's the minority leader.
It's going to be none other than Representative Hakeem Jeffries, Democrat of New York.
He's from Brooklyn.
He ran unopposed.
And he will make history as the first black person to hold this role.
His top deputy will be Representative Catherine Clark, now that's a white lady, Democrat of Massachusetts, a ferocious progressive who served under Jeffries as Vice Chair of the Democratic Caucus, and then rounding out the top three will be a Hispanic, Representative Pete Aguilar, Democrat of California.
He is one of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus members, and a former mayor, and boy, the three of those are, I think, going to be worth keeping an eye on.
I think it's very important that this is actually happening, because we know the Democrat Party has pretty much tipped and formed some form of support, and who forms the base of the Democrat Party.
You know, one of the reasons why, Mr. Taylor, I think in exit polls you're seeing... Ron Unz has said this, that Asians and Hispanics are shifting away from the Democrat Party significantly.
You know, there are disputes as to how heavy the numbers are, but they are definitely leaving them.
They're noticeable.
They're noticeable.
Well, it depends on where.
If you're talking about Florida, yes, it's noticeable.
If you're talking about California, not so noticeable.
True, good point.
So yeah, it's a very interesting thing, and the leadership is going wokey-dokey.
Not a single white man amongst them, of course.
Only one white, and that white person is a woman.
Now as far as Hakeem is concerned, he has been the Congressional Black Caucus whip And he has been involved in what he calls maintaining the CBC's historic role as the conscience of the Congress.
I'm sure he was a great conscience of the Congress.
He called for a Department of Justice investigation into the circumstances of Eric Garner's death.
Remember Eric Garner?
That was this 400-pound guy who was peddling stolen cigarettes in New York City.
Yes, and he could not walk a single block without wheezing and huffing and puffing.
He had all sorts of physical problems.
He was taken down with a neck cold, not a choke hold.
That's right.
And he died quite some time later.
But this was all a great scandal that he'd been strangled to death by this little white cop.
Not one bit.
But, Hakeem Jeffries wanted a Congressional investigation.
And in December 2014, he led a Congressional Black Caucus.
He led their members in a hands-up-don't-shoot protest.
When was this again?
2014.
Oh, so this was in the aftermath of Michael Brown-Durham-Wilson's altercation in Ferguson, okay.
And of course, even the Obama Justice Department recognized that hands up, don't shoot was a crock.
Elon Musk actually tweeted that out not too long ago.
I don't know if you knew this.
He fact-checked it.
He actually said what you just stated.
That Obama's own Eric Holder's Department of Justice confirmed this was a lie.
So who's spreading misinformation on my platform?
Hakeem.
Hakeem.
And Jeffries also alleged Russian collusion in the 2016 U.S.
presidential election and repeatedly called Donald Trump an illegitimate president.
Now Jeffreys is also the nephew of Leonard Jeffreys.
Some of our more seasoned listeners will probably recall he was a former professor at City College of New York, now retired.
He's 85 years old.
He was chairman of the City College of New York's Black Studies Department for more than two decades.
He was a proponent of melanin theory.
That's right.
So, Uncle Leonard is a proponent of melanin theory.
Now, I wonder to what extent Hakeem is a proponent of this, but this posits that greater pigmentation makes black people inherently superior to white people because it allows them to negotiate the vibrations of the universe.
Did you know that?
I didn't know that last part.
Navigate the vibrations of the universe.
Negotiate the vibrations.
I wonder if that's where the concept of vibranium from Black Panther comes from.
Oh no, there you go.
Could be.
That's excellent.
That's actually worth researching.
Might be.
Because you can negotiate the vibrations of the universe.
Also, Leonard Jeffries said whites are ice people who are inherently violent and cruel, while blacks are sun people who are compassionate and peaceful.
Al Sharpton was a big buddy of Leonard Jeffries in those days.
He showed up at the school and boosted him.
Well, in 1992, after he kept saying these things, Jeffries got his term as chairman of the African-American department shortened from three years to one, and then was removed as chairman.
But then he litigated and litigated and re-litigated and litigated some more and he won reinstatement and $400,000 in damages.
That got litigated some more.
The damages were removed and an appeals court finally said that City College did have the right to remove him as chairman of the department.
He had tenure or not?
He had tenure.
He was not, he could not be denied tenure and apparently the decision was didn't, the tenure meant that he could continue as a professor but that he could, the university did have the right to remove him as chairman of the department.
Interesting.
In any case, I think you have a recent and fact-filled study about gun violence.
Yes, gun deaths surged at record pace during the pandemic, study finds.
This comes to us courtesy of the Washington Times, so if anybody wants to research and read the whole thing, we're not going to read all of it.
We'll read the main facts here.
U.S.
gun death rates have surged at a record pace during the COVID-19 pandemic and are rising the fastest among black men.
Now, this is according to a new study that was published today, or I should say yesterday.
The federal government recorded 1,100,421 shooting deaths and gun suicides between 1990 and 2021.
421 shooting deaths and gun suicides between 1990 and 2021.
In those 32 years, the rate of gun deaths from all causes jumped by almost 50% from a low
of 10 for every 100,000 Americans in 2004 to 14.9 per 100,000 people in 2021, according to the
study published in JAMA Network Open.
Never heard of that, but all right.
Well, JAMA, that's the Journal of American Medical Association.
Okay, gotcha.
Oh, I've never heard of that acronym.
Okay, that makes total sense.
Yes.
I stand corrected.
Beautifully so.
No, just enlightened, not corrected.
The rate spiked by 26% from 2019 to 2021 alone as firearm fatalities hit a record high of 48,944 last year.
Mr. Kersey, I don't like it when they mix suicides by gun and homicides by gun.
I agree.
I think it's illegitimate, but to some degree they do separate it out in the statistics.
They do, they get down there.
But this accounts for a 60% increase since 2004.
60% increase?
60% increase.
In gun suicides and gun murders.
Exactly, because they combine the two in the initial portion of this article.
So, from 2019 to 2021, the study found that shooting deaths surged by 40% to 6.4 per 100,000 people and the suicide rate increased by 17% to 8 per 100,000 people.
percent to 6.4 per 100,000 people and the suicide rate increased by 17 percent to 8
per 100,000 people. Both record increases for 22 years going back to 1990. What we learned
is shooting death rates have risen fastest during the pandemic for black men aged 20
to 24 who already topped annual firearm homicide statistics.
Conversely, firearm suicide rates among elderly black men during the pandemic have also surged at more than double the rate of elderly white men who, the report notes, traditionally lead the category of gun deaths.
They always lead that category.
Yup.
Of gun suicide.
Correct.
Soft on crime policies and diverse urban areas could also explain widening racial gaps in the study.
the National Rifle Association and Second Amendment Advocacy Group said in a statement.
This is really important. All these people say, oh, it was COVID. It was confinement.
No. That completely misstates, I think, ignores the important facts.
The BLM riots, pulling back on the police, they completely ignore that.
Yeah, nobody wants to be the next Derek Chauvin because we know that it's going to be very rare that you're going to have a district attorney who won't prosecute as Darren Wilson was able to get out back in November of 2014.
And that was a scandal when the Ferguson business Riots and riots.
Barack Obama went on CNN as the city started to burn and said, you know, I feel, you know, people might actually be okay to feel as if justice wasn't done, I believe, to paraphrase.
He said, basically, I'm just as angry as you are, or something like that.
Great president, yeah.
So, Amy Hunter, an NRA spokesman, said this, quote, crime rates are soaring. We see that not
only in the news headlines, but also in neighborhoods where high crime and lack of
prosecutions has residents living in fear. Furthermore, law enforcement is hamstrung
by policies that favor criminals, not decrease the violence.
I'm sorry.
And anyone serious about combating violence would advocate for prosecution of criminals.
Adding another Biden or Bloomberg gun control law, it's not going to decrease the violence reference in this study.
And here's where the reference is, like you mentioned.
The study found that firearm homicide rates for young black men age 20 to 24 skyrocketed by
48% from 95.3 per 100,000 people in 2019 to 141 per 100,000 people in 2021. By comparison,
the shooting death rate rose by only 14% for white men in that age range from 4.3%.
4.3 to 4.9.
So it's 4.9 to 135 or something like that?
Yeah, you could do the math very quickly and figure it out.
Gun suicide rates for white men age 75 and older who long dominated that category rose by 7%
from 39.3 per 100,000 people in 2019 to 42.2 in 2021. Among black men,
the rate rose 16% from 8.1 per 100,000 to 9.4.
See, they're still way behind.
They're still way behind.
Yeah.
Old white men kill themselves.
Young black men kill each other.
Couldn't have put it more succinctly.
So that's the story.
And again, guns don't kill people, ladies and gentlemen.
It's an inanimate object.
Somebody's always got to pull the trigger.
Whether it's an old white man, or a young black male.
As I recall, the rough statistics are, when white people use guns to kill somebody, 85% of the time, they're killing themselves.
Yes, that's... And it's the other way around for blacks.
It's actually a little higher.
That's a Brookings Institute study, which we have only seen once.
I believe that was done in 2015, and the chart is... It's mesmerizing to look at, actually.
Almost perfect symmetry.
Exactly.
When blacks pull the trigger, they're pointing at somebody else about 85% of the time.
When whites pull the trigger, they're pointing at themselves 85%.
And you know, if people wish to commit suicide, and they're going to do it with a gun, that does not upset me nearly to the extent of people killing each other.
That's a whole different kettle of fish, and I wish these anti-gun people wouldn't mix them up.
Well, I mean, I can't think of any community that's ever seen property devaluation from suicides.
They don't exactly happen.
Unless it's, what, the Hale-Bopp comet people who drink the Kool-Aid.
It's not a gun death, but remember that house back in the late 90s?
I do remember.
Do they have a hard time selling that later?
I don't know.
Probably.
In any case, yet more racism has been unmasked, Mr. Kersey.
Uh-oh.
This is a never-ending saga.
America just, ah, it's just one, it's peeling the onion.
Every time you open a layer, there's another layer underneath.
A recent online audit from CNN argued that daylight savings time disproportionately affects the sleep and health of minority communities.
Oh my goodness.
CNN health reporter Jacqueline Howard Now, Jacqueline Howard is someone who negotiates the vibrations of the universe.
Oh, is she melanin-enhanced?
She's melanin-very-enhanced.
I think we're on to something here.
She argued that daylight savings time often disrupts sleep, throws off people's circadian rhythms, and contributes to general health problems, and And this is the crucial logical step.
Since people of color have a higher number of health problems, this means observing daylight savings time is more dangerous for them.
Poor sleep is associated with a host of poor health outcomes, including obesity, hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, breast and colon cancer, and many of these conditions are more prevalent in black communities.
And that's why daylight saving time hurts them.
Oh dear.
Except, now this is an interesting finding, black individuals who have middle or high income, the disparities between whites are less.
Really?
Yes.
So I guess you can buy your way out of racism.
It's not indulgences, what would that be?
I guess that's getting proper levels of melatonin.
I suppose that's it.
Well, as I've often said, you know, the force of gravity weighs more heavily and oppressively on people of color.
We all know that.
But there is a solution to this problem of daylight savings time.
I think we should apply it only to white people and let the BIPOCs stay on regular time.
Colored people time.
Yes.
Colored people time.
That's right.
And that way they wouldn't have to go through all of this.
I think you're onto something.
Yes.
Daylight savings time is just for white people.
And you go back, it's just for white people have to change.
Now, Monkeypox has a new name.
The World Health Organization, we spoke about this several times.
We have.
The WHO was absolutely Hmm.
Terrified and humiliated to think that a disease has a name called monkeypox.
And they have renamed it mpox in a bid to help tackle what they call discrimination and stigma.
And as you and I said over and over, just because it's called monkeypox, it's in the imaginations of only those who wish to associate monkeys with certain people.
Precisely.
That's discriminatory.
But I guess the World Health Organization, they just can't help thinking of those terms themselves.
They announced its intention to rename the disease in June after concerns about the original name.
And did you know they had a crowdsourcing effort to find a new name?
I did not know this.
I didn't know that either.
I didn't take part either.
And this article does not say whether it was the crowdsource that came up with the new name, namely Empox.
M-Pox.
M-Pox.
That has kind of a nice ring to it.
He's got M-Pox.
The UN Health Agency said scientists had raised concerns also about the way outbreaks are covered by the media and the naming of the different strains in reference to the various parts of Africa from which they were found.
Okay.
So, remember they used to do that with the variants of COVID?
Yes.
The Indian variant, the South African variant, and then they got all classical Greek and started giving them Greek letter names.
I think that's racist, of course.
But so MPOX has gone the way of the African variant.
Now, a little story about airplane etiquette that caught my eye.
There was a couple that bolted through the check-in process, skipped the bag measures, didn't get boarding passes, they bounded onto the airplane, and then screamed at crew members who asked them to get off.
And I've seen the video of this.
Rather tense footage of the disturbance on Frontier Airlines shows employees telling these people, you need to come out or we're going to have to deplane the entire plane.
And they refused to get off the plane.
And I was somewhat gratified to note that everybody on the plane is chanting, get off the plane!
Get off the plane!
Oh, I have to watch that video.
They didn't.
And instead of saying that, one of them responds, we're tired.
We've been flying for 20 motherfucking hours.
You don't know what the fuck we've been through.
And so, they said they just folded their arms while everybody else was forced off the plane so the police could come on and take them off.
Now, my question for you, Mr. Kersey.
You're a bright boy.
Okay.
How come the police don't just come on and muscle them off the plane without having to get everybody else off the plane and back onto the plane?
What do you reckon the reasoning is?
Protocol, probably.
I don't know.
Well, but protocol probably has some reason.
My guess would be that they're afraid that if they have to get into fisticuffs or tackle these people and somebody else gets injured, there'd be some sort of liability.
That'd be my guess.
But it seems so incredibly inefficient to unload the whole aircraft just so the police can come in and march two loudmouth black people off the plane.
Well, Mr. Taylor, if you've flown recently, I think you'd find that efficiency is not the primary focus of...
The airline industry.
Well, this is one way they could make it more efficient, it seems to me.
They need all the efficiency consulting that they can get.
Meanwhile, Mr. Kersey, I think you have a story for us about poor Abraham Lincoln.
Oh my goodness.
Whose memory is being sullied.
Yeah, so for the second time in under two months, a statue dedicated to President Abe Lincoln!
Is it dedicated to him?
It's of him, isn't it?
I'm just reading.
This is the line from the New York Post.
It does depict President Lincoln.
It was to face in Chicago on Thanksgiving, the statue of a young Abraham Lincoln.
Maybe somebody was upset that he lost to Douglas.
I don't know.
I think that was it.
Statue of a young Abe Lincoln in Sin Park in Chicago's Edgewater neighborhood was found covered in splotches of red paint along with the words, Colonizer and Land Back.
According to the outlet, the statue also had Dakota 38 written on it in reference to the Dakota Sioux members who Lincoln ordered to be executed following the Dakota War of 1862.
That was, of course, in Minnesota.
It was a gruesome race war that transpired between white settlers, primarily Scandinavian, and The Dakota Sioux.
The Dakota Tribe.
Lincoln commuted the sentences of 264 Dakota fighters, but sentenced 38 to be hung in Minnesota, which became the largest mass execution in U.S.
history.
A similar message was written across another statue of the 16th President in Lincoln Park, roughly six miles away from Senn Park on October 11th.
It's really quite an interesting thing, these Lakotas who were rounded up.
Was it 361 of them?
What's the number?
They were all sentenced to die.
And Abraham Lincoln, this is in 18 what, 62?
He's got a war going on.
He's fighting the Civil War.
Yeah, you're talking about the second year of the Civil War.
And he took the trouble to go through the transcripts of every one of these cases.
And he decided there was not enough evidence to string up every one of these.
In fact, he wanted to, I believe his criterion was only rapists and only those who had slaughtered civilians.
If you could prove that that had been done, then okay, string them up.
But in any case, the fact that he took the time to read through the transcript, every one of those trials, and make a decision, I think that's quite extraordinary.
Yeah.
But they're all upset because he didn't pardon every single one.
No, no, no, no.
So this is really an interesting new wrinkle on Lincoln.
There are lots and lots of things that the anti-racists complain about with Lincoln.
He was really not a friend of the black man, really, at all.
And of course, as you know, he wanted the freed blacks to be shipped outside the United States, just like Thomas Jefferson and so many other Americans.
He was still working on that as the Civil War was raging.
That's right.
There's a lot of what ifs in American history and it is just so sad to think that a state like Oregon, what we talked about earlier, Oregon, no, they don't want to be a slave state because at that point you had the opportunity.
You voted whether or not you were going to be a slave state.
And that was what was so contentious is because everyone said, well, we don't want all these other states.
We don't want to have this battle going on.
Look what happened with Missouri and Kansas.
The, the, uh, the incredible, uh, uh, friction between those two states due to the proximity of, Basically, you know, the John Brown types, the abolitionists, and then the good people of Missouri.
I think we know what side I'd go on.
Some of those were not such good people either.
No, but the point is, Oregon realized the consequences.
We don't want slavery, because we don't want these people here, and we don't want free people here either.
That's right.
You know, there's a place called Monrovia, Liberia, where there's plenty of land and plenty of opportunities abound.
Now, the vandals who remain unidentified allegedly wrote, Mr. Taylor, how do you avenge the Dakota 38?
I guess you kill us all.
What else would you do?
And the colonizers?
Abraham Lincoln is a colonizer?
I think that's just another word for white people.
I think I would agree so.
I would agree so.
So this sounds like hopped up American Indians doing this.
Well, here we go.
The Chicago Tribune said perpetrators posted the names of the 38 Dakota men.
With the message, quote, tear down the myth of Lincoln the great liberator, end quote.
Now the statue in Lincoln Park called Abraham Lincoln the man has been called one of the most significant sculptures of Lincoln from the 19th century and was sculpted by Augustus Saint-Gaudens in 1887, 22 years after the shooting death of Abraham Lincoln by John Wilkes Booth.
No arrests have been made yet.
And I bet you none will be made.
But, you know, I guess it's because they still have that statue up and we still have all of this oppression on display in bronze that in just one hour there were seven carjackings reported on Chicago's west side on Friday.
In just one hour, seven carjackings.
The victims were reportedly held at gunpoint.
No arrests have been made.
This was on the day after Thanksgiving, as a matter of fact, but the suspects were described as dark-skinned men.
Dark-skinned men, ages 18 to 30, wearing black clothes and ski masks, and in one case, a blue hat.
Dark-skinned.
Maybe those dark-skinned men didn't get enough turkey the day before, but I would say it was a real Black Friday for their victims, wasn't it?
Great pun.
In any case, crime has spiked in the Windy City in the last year.
Homicides are reaching an almost high for the last 25 years, but it's still lower than the 1990s.
In 2021, robbery reports have been up 15% in 2022, holdups 11% since 2020 and 2019.
Robbery reports have been up 15% in 2022, holdups 11% since 2020 and 2019.
But you know, if they would just take down that statue of the colonizers, I'm sure.
Every statue of a colonizer.
They must go.
Every statue of every colonizer.
Then everything would be so much better.
Now, this is a fascinating story from London.
You know, there is a pharmaceutical company called Wellcome in Britain.
Okay.
They make a lot of sort of daily use non-prescription drugs as well as prescription drugs.
And I'd always thought that Wellcome must have been the name of some Englishman.
But it's the name of an American.
In any case, the Wellcome Collection, which is based in London, is scrapping its Medicine Man exhibit, which has been on display for the last 15 years.
The charity which runs the museum, the Wellcome Trust, said the items neglected to tell the stories of those we have historically marginalized and excluded.
Basically it's a display of all kinds of medicine related artifacts, prostheses, examination equipment, a fascinating really history of the history of medicine.
Okay.
Shown through all of these artifacts And instruments.
What's the great word that a pharmacist used to be called?
Apothecary.
Apothecary.
Yes.
It said it had instead been telling the story of Henry Welcome, a 19th century American pharmaceutical entrepreneur and medical artifact enthusiast who founded the collection.
Now see, apparently he was American, 19th century American.
But, you know, the idea was we're going to tell the history of medicine with his personal collection.
But, oh, no, no, we're not doing that.
We're just telling his story.
It said that Welcome was born in a log cabin in Wisconsin, was a man with enormous wealth, power and privilege.
Well, I wonder how he got it.
Born in a log cabin.
He must have worked very hard for it.
He had acquired hundreds of thousands of objects with the aim of better understanding the art and science of healing throughout the ages.
Well, the Wellcome Trust is now asking itself, what's the point of museums?
Who did these objects belong to?
How were they acquired?
What gives us the right to tell their stories?
Hmm.
Good grief.
I understand.
Only, only white people, only white people.
This is just the denatured, utterly politicized, browbeaten white person.
He says the result was a collection that told a global story of health and medicine in which disabled people, black people, indigenous people, and peoples of color were exoticized, marginalized, and exploited, or even missing altogether.
I'm sure there's probably not one medical invention in there that was perfected by a one-legged African lesbian.
I bet not one.
Maybe two.
We give voice to the narratives and lived experiences of those who have been silenced, erased, and ignored.
It added that it used artist interventions.
In other words, they contextualized these things, explaining how racist everything is.
But that just hadn't done the job.
The display still perpetuates a version of medical history that is based on racist, sexist, and ableist theories and languages.
Ableist.
So it's based on the scientific method.
And of course the scientific method, just like daylight saving time, is somehow now inherently evil, racist, bigoted, and the, you know...
The fact that they cannot dig up enough medical advances to attribute to people who are not white men is just excruciating, so they take down the whole exhibit.
It goes back to what we talked about last week at Harvard Medical School, where they took down all the portraits of the prior deans and the prior teachers.
It was Harvard, by the way.
It was Harvard.
Very good.
The museum added that the items in the collection show all the extraordinary ways in which people through time and across cultures have sought to understand the workings of the mind and body to protect themselves and care for one another.
Now doesn't that sound okay?
That's not good enough because we just don't have enough BIPOCs and ladies and crippled people who contributed great breakthroughs.
It said, by exhibiting these items together, the very fact that they've ended up in one place, the story we told was that a man of enormous wealth, power, and privilege.
The stories we neglected to tell were those that have been historically marginalized or excluded.
What?
This is just... Sometimes I just have absolutely no patience with the crazy, stupid, self-destructive things white people do.
That's one of them.
Yes.
That's one of the stories.
That's a good one.
Yes, that's a good one.
Meanwhile, there's a story, an interesting story about black people.
Not our usual story here.
I had never heard of this guy, but Kyrie Irving is apparently a professional basketball player, a point guard for the Nets.
He was suspended after he posted a link on social media to what is referred to as a Holocaust questioning movie.
And the title of the movie is Hebrews to Negroes, Wake Up Black America.
Now, I don't suspect that this was a hit in the movie theaters.
but hundreds of members of a black Jewish Israelite group chanted,
We are the real Jews, as they descended on Brooklyn's Barclays Center in a pro-Kiri
Irving march.
I suppose that's where they play basketball in Brooklyn.
There was a massive line of followers of these, what did they call themselves?
Black Jewish Israelites.
They were all wearing matching purple jackets.
I saw photographs of this.
They were all in marching formation.
I saw a video of it, yeah.
Very disciplined, very disciplined.
And, no, the group is officially called Israel United in Christ.
And they were videoed and recording as they shouted, we've got some good news!
We're the real Jews.
There's good news for you.
Well, the group also handed out flyers outside the arena that claim to share the truth about anti-Semitism.
As I said, it was a very disciplined looking group, and there's flashy purple jackets and all.
But United, Israel United in Christ, now reportedly has 71 locations in the U.S.
And it claims that blacks and other people of color are the true children of Israel.
And a deacon of the church, they have deacons, it said Kyrie Irving, is that how you pronounce it?
Kyrie Irving, do you know?
I think it's Kyrie Irving.
Kyrie Irving.
Kyrie Irving himself understands not only we are Semites ourselves, it's contradictory and hypocritical to say someone is an anti-Semite when he himself is a Semite.
So, because black people are Semites, if they say bad things about Jews, they cannot be anti-Semite.
He goes on to say, Our knowledge of our heritage and laws has been systematically removed from us through the monstrous holocaust known as the slave trade.
Jesus the Christ, our Black Messiah, confirms the truth of who we are.
We are not anti-Semitic.
We are Semitic.
Now, the American Jewish Committee says that we are the real Jews is a troubling anti-Semitic trope.
Now, I thought imitation was the sincerest form of flattery.
But apparently, it's an anti-Semitic trope to claim that you're Jews.
Then the Jewish committee says, we cannot allow this supremacist ideology to spread.
Now, what does it mean?
Claiming to be Jews is supremacist?
I'd watch that, fellas.
In any case, it was founded in 2003, its goal to rebuild the nation of Israel according to biblical prophecy.
Rebuild it as... A black Israelite.
Black Israelites.
Yes.
The website claims that blacks, American Indians, and Hispanics are the true 12 tribes of Israel.
Okay.
And it says you must not celebrate wicked pagan holidays such as Easter, Christmas, Halloween, and Valentine's Day.
Now, I looked up on their website and they refer to their churches as schools.
Schools.
Schools.
Okay.
And they've got one in Virginia in Newport News.
And the primary contact is called Officer Yawanathan.
And there was his phone number.
I could have called Officer Yawanathan, I suppose, and had a good jabber.
But rules for visitors.
Here's rules for visitors.
Our security team conducts searches of all visitors and members prior to entering our schools.
Probably pretty safe.
It says, plan to be there most of the day.
You'll need to bring food.
And you'll need to bring your Bible, King James Version, and Apocrypha.
Dress to please God and reflect His glory.
Women, do not, in full caps, wear clothes that are tight-fitting, reveal nakedness, or the figure of the body.
Dress or skirt length should be below mid-calf.
No low necklines, no pants, and wear a head wrap.
Men, no baggy or sagging pants.
Wear a belt if needed to prevent your pants from sagging.
So there you go.
They also urge you to subscribe to the Hebrews Journal, which I did not do.
That's why you didn't.
Sounds like some very good reading.
Now, I watched a live stream video of one of their sessions, the session in Newport News.
And it was a very impressive layout.
There were three of them sitting abreast behind what looked like a judge's bench with all kinds of carvings and scrolls and whatnot.
And they had these really, I don't know, they looked like characters out of Alice in Wonderland, practically.
These purple, sparkly outfits.
Something only Lewis Carroll could come up with?
Some Mad Hatters.
Yeah, and they were talking about these articles, complaining about them.
Three black guys all in a row.
Very impressive.
Very impressive.
So, and again, the name of the group, once again, it doesn't have the word, it doesn't have black Hebrew in it.
Let me see if I can find that here.
Israel United in Christ is the name of the group.
And again, once again, if you are black, or if you are an American Indian, or if you're Hispanic, then you are one of the 12 tribes of Israel.
And everybody else is a bunch of imposters.
Now, Mr. Kersey, I believe you have a story, to me, a rather shocking story that comes right out of Washington State.
Oregon's bad enough.
Washington's getting worse.
They're all bad.
Washington judges must presume racial bias in verdicts when claimed.
This is from Big Country News, published earlier this month, actually.
The article states, judges must presume that racial bias was a factor in a jury's decision in a civil suit when one litigant makes that claim.
According to a Washington Supreme Court ruling, placing the burden of proof on the opposing party to show that racial bias did affect the outcome.
Well, wait, it did not affect the outcome, presumably.
Placing the burden of proof in the opposing party to show that racial bias did affect the outcome.
Oh, oh, oh, wait.
So, okay, continue.
I got it wrong, then.
Okay.
The ruling was handed down in October in a liability lawsuit brought by an African-American woman who claimed her injury from a car accident aggravated her symptoms from Tourette's syndrome.
Car accident caused more profanity.
Made her even more far off.
Yeah, exactly.
The plaintiff had sought $3.5 million in damages.
The defendant had admitted fault in the accident.
When the jury found for the plaintiff a grant of only $9,200 in damages, she appealed the award, presenting arguments to demonstrate that racial bias influenced the decision.
Cited as evidence of racial bias were statements by the defendant's lawyers that seemed to indicate racial stereotyping, indicating describing the defendant as confrontational and combative.
Her suggestion that the defendant was interested only in a financial windfall and that the defendant's witnesses, who were all black family members and friends, were inherently biased and seemed to have been coached to give identical testimony.
Also, the jury asked that Henderson leave the courtroom before they re-entered to deliver their verdict.
In summary, Montoya Lewis wrote, drawing on a recent Washington Supreme Court decision, when a new trial is sought on the ground that racial bias affected the verdict, the facts must be viewed through the lens of an objective observer who is aware that implicit institutional and unconscious biases, in addition to purposeful discrimination, have influenced jury verdicts in Washington State.
So, you were correct in what you surmised initially.
Well, wait.
Does this mean, I better look into this further, but it sounds like it could mean that if any party to a lawsuit says there's been racial bias, then the other side has to prove there wasn't.
Precisely.
That can't be, because you can't prove there was nothing there.
Yeah, in a hearing, so she added, in a hearing based on prima facie evidence that racial bias possibly affected the verdict, the court must presume that it did, Yes.
I'm going to repeat that.
Okay.
In a hearing based on prima facie evidence that racial bias possibly affected the verdict, the court must presume that it did, and the party seeking to uphold the verdict must prove how it did not.
If they cannot prove that racial bias was not a factor, that verdict is fundamentally incompatible with substantial justice.
But they're talking about prima facie evidence also.
I mean, I don't understand.
Maybe there has to be prima facie evidence of bias.
This sounds like it's well worth looking into.
I'd like to read that decision.
I think you need to.
Yeah, I may have to make a note on that.
Because I believe it was also in Washington State that the Supreme Court ruled that if there is a pretextual stop And a black person is detained but not arrested, if that black person doesn't realize that he's got the right to leave and then says something incriminating, those incriminating statements have to be thrown out because a black person is assumed not to understand the law.
Correct.
That's correct.
An astonishing thing.
Was that in Washington State also?
I'm pretty sure it was.
It might have been Oregon.
It's one of those two.
Yes, one of those two cuckoo states.
All those white people up there.
I mean, not enough diversity around here.
They go crazy if there are too many white people.
Well, Washington is increasingly diversifying much faster than Oregon, but... Even so.
Well, you know, there's been a certain amount of friskiness due to the World Cup.
Do you follow World Cup soccer at all, by the way?
I do.
I do not.
For all the listeners out there who might be upset, no, I do not pay attention to soccer.
No, I don't think anybody's upset that you don't pay attention to soccer.
But riots broke out in Belgian and Dutch cities after Morocco's 2-0 upset win over Belgium at the World Cup.
Now, let's think about this.
You've got a Belgian city, and there's rioting.
In name only.
In name only?
It wasn't in name only.
Well, Belgians.
Well, people living in Belgium are rioting.
Now, could it be that the Belgians are heartbroken in their defeat and taking their woes out rioting?
No, of course not.
As the Associated Press puts it gently, Morocco's victory was enthusiastically celebrated by fans.
Mostly peaceful protests.
Enthusiastically celebrated by burning cars and smashing windows to stores, attacking police officers.
But yes, these were fans of Moroccan immigrant origin.
Police deployed water cannons and fired tear gas to disperse crowds in Brussels and Antwerp.
Even subway traffic was stopped on police orders.
I'm not quite sure what the advantage of that is, but maybe it means people don't come pouring out of the stations downtown.
Two police officers were injured in the Dutch port city of Rotterdam, but by late evening, an uneasy calm had returned.
Dozens of riders overturned and burnt cars, set electric scooters on fire.
There are lots of them.
Pelted cars with bricks.
And that's pretty nasty.
You're driving along and a brick comes through your window.
Police neighborhoods in the Netherlands said violence erupted.
Yes.
Now, a Belgian TikTok star.
I saw a photograph.
Hershey's one of these really rather shapely and appealing lasses that turn into TikTok stars.
She said, you live in Belgium and you are ransacking Belgium after your team wins.
This country accepted you, fed you, gave you jobs, and now you trash Belgium and ransack it.
Needless to say, she was not a Moroccan.
And what particularly annoyed an awful lot of people was in Brussels, Moroccans climbed a building and took down a Belgian flag.
Well, Belgium has a population of 11.5 million and half a million Moroccans.
But they all tend to be concentrated in these big cities and they all live amongst themselves.
And I am very glad to see that people are furious about it.
Now, we have a good sense story from Sweden.
All right!
Yes, it's newly elected center-right government.
In which the Sweden Democrats are not coalition partners, but they have a lot of power because they have agreed not to vote no confidence or that they will vote no confidence if things go wrong.
So unfortunately, they're not actually in the government itself, but they are influential.
Its newly elected government is proposing to amend existing migration laws to change permanent residency to temporary residency.
Now this is important.
In a 60-page document outlining the plans, it included many pledges to tackle legal and illegal immigration.
As a spokesman said, heretofore, once a permit is permanent, then there are no further checks on it.
You can just be there forever.
Okay.
Now they say, oops, nope, nope, nope, nope.
Nothing.
There's no such thing as permanent residency.
Good.
Yes.
Now, apparently the way it's going to work is this.
The new migration minister, Maria Stenegard, said you should not be here forever as a permanent alien, you either make a choice.
You become a citizen or you leave.
Now that is not as namby-pamby as it sounds because to become a citizen there are stiff
requirements.
You have to learn Swedish.
Okay.
Not easy for Moroccans.
Or anyone.
No.
It's not Swedish.
No, no.
You have to have a job and other things like that.
So if they fail to meet the requirements, all of this temporariness is going to go by the boards and they can get the boot.
And there could be hundreds of thousands who could be subject to this.
So let's hope that they stick to their guns.
And let's hope it is hundreds of thousands.
Yes.
Now, I thought we had another story of yours, but maybe not.
Well, we'll see.
The only other one we had, we don't really need to get into, because that was the one about... Yes, yes.
The LSATs.
Yeah, the LSAT stuff.
We have a picante little story from Italy.
Italy's only black lawmaker has suspended himself from his left-wing party on Thursday after his family was accused of mismanaging funds and exploiting staff at two associations set up to help immigrants.
He's Italy's only black parliamentarian.
The growing scandal has dealt a severe political blow to Abubakar Sumahoro, Italy's best-known activist for migrant rights.
And he entered parliament last month after winning a seat in national election for the Green and Left Party.
These days, the Greens and the Reds are joining And he, of course, was their chosen candidate.
Sumohoro has denied any personal wrongdoing, and neither his wife nor his mother-in-law have been formally charged, but it is said that they siphoned off funds at the two cooperatives they managed that were set up to help immigrants assimilate.
But following two days of talks with party leaders and against a background of widespread negative media coverage, Sumohoro announced that he would suspend himself from the party.
I don't know what that means.
I suppose he's no longer taking votes.
Magistrates are looking into these actions.
The two cooperatives, I'm sure they all subsist on government money.
Government gives them money, but they failed to pay their workers.
They entered into irregular contracts with staff, whatever that means.
Issued false invoices.
That's the standard thing.
Issue false invoices.
And they mistreated migrants.
Now, Elena Fattori, a former green and left lawmaker, after visiting one of the residents, she said, I wouldn't have put dogs in that place.
Yes.
So apparently these were not the Ritz-Carlton, but this is where the immigrants go and they're supposed to be rehabilitated.
Turned into good little Italians.
Well, this guy, this Sumahoro, he was born on the Ivory Coast.
He's been a race and immigration rabble rouser his whole life.
He entered the chamber on his first day as a lawmaker wearing muddy boots, saying that they were a symbol of the suffering and the hopes of the real Italy.
So there you go.
You know, the third world comes to the first world in all its glory.
And they bring the third world to the former, and now replaced first world.
I'm surprised, I know we didn't get to talk about it, I'm sure we will next week, but the census numbers out of England were quite dreary, Mr. Taylor, and we can discuss those next week.
Yes, I don't know, I don't like these dreary stories too much.
Here's a much better story.
Have you ever heard of Hammer City?
Well, I hope you will.
It's a black communist organization known as Black Hammer.
Okay.
Plans to create a separate ethnostate on 200 acres in Colorado.
A lot of cosmic vibrations going on there.
Yes.
A lot of vibrations.
A lot of it.
And you see, also, do you realize, because it is 10,000 feet high, I think all the cosmic vibrations are probably, you're closer to the sun and all that melody is just going bzz bzz bzz bzz.
In any case, Black Hammer was founded in 2019 by YouTube personality Gazi Kodzo to take the land back for all colonized people worldwide.
He says, we are located high in the mountains, 10,000 feet in the air with rich soil.
The fact is, rich soil flows down into the valleys.
It does.
The Fertile Crescent, I believe, is one of the... I suspect 10,000 feet up, the soil is not rich.
He says, we have one lake and three rivers on our land.
Hammer City will create a city for all people of color to be free, with no discrimination of nationality, gender, age, or mental or physical differences.
Hammer City will exclude all white people.
However, those it does not exclude, it will give residents jobs, housing, food, and health care, while retaining a no cops, no rent, and no white people policy.
Now, doesn't that sound like paradise for a lot of black people?
I think it sounds like what Philadelphia looks like right now, actually.
There are white people still, but you don't see cops doing much.
I think they still probably have to pay rent, but no cops, no rent, no white people.
Man, that's heaven on earth!
Black Hammer has an online funding page on its website and as of a couple of months ago it had raised $111,000.
The organization gives white people the opportunity to be a good person on the right side of history By joining a so-called reparations corps and making monthly reparation payments to Hammer City.
But we can't live there, folks.
But you can give them money to go to live in Hammer City.
Now, I suspect this is going to be about as successful as the attempt that Abraham Lincoln made during the war to move black people to Central America.
But I salute the spirit.
And I guess we have time for a story that is a little bit left over from a couple of weeks ago.
This is a sign language interpreter who worked on Broadway production of The Lion King.
This is really quite remarkable.
A lot of people sent this to us.
This sign language interpreter was white.
He was fired because he's white and apparently they decided that you could not have a white sign language interpreter interpreting for black characters.
Okay.
I guess they just don't interpret into Ebonics.
His name is Keith Wan, 53 years old, and he and another white were taken off the show, and the group said it's no longer appropriate to have white interpreters represent black characters for American Sign Language.
And the majority of the characters in The Lion King are black actors, and the play is set in Africa.
It is?
I've never seen the play.
I've seen the cartoon, but not the play.
Yeah, that's right.
Well, apparently this Wan is not taking things lying down.
He is filing a lawsuit.
So we'll see how he does.
I certainly wish him every success.
