You're listening to the Liberty News Radio Network, and this is the political cesspool.
The Political Cesspool, going across the South and worldwide, as the South's foremost populist conservative radio program.
And here to guide you through the murky waters of the political cesspool is your host, James Edwards.
Well, welcome back, everybody, to the third hour of tonight's live broadcast, Saturday evening, September the 28th.
Keith, when we are back together again next week, it's going to be October, and it is going to be exactly a month until the election.
You know, that debate, I think the Harris-Trump debate, it was something like 55 days left of the election.
Am I misremembering that?
And now it's like 30?
That seems like it was two or three days ago.
I don't even understand how time is warping in the way that it is.
Time is wise, but this is a warped speed, I believe.
This is the end of the road.
And where we go post-November, we will find out.
But I do, you know, you said, Keith, and I know everybody has been saying it.
We say it all the time.
This is the most important election of my lifetime.
Every four years, it's the most important election of a lifetime, like boxing promoters saying that every heavyweight fight is the fight of the century.
But you think this time there really may be something to it?
Well, I do.
I think that, you know, the election between Obama and McCain and Obama and Mitt Romney were not important elections.
Those were two stooges put up by the deep state to put token opposition up to the one they really wanted in because, of course, he's black.
And, you know, that's one thing Republicans and Democrats have in common.
They both are hungering, yearning for black candidates.
Now, on the other hand, the Republican Party's base is white Gentiles.
And that's one group of people they will never make a promise to, never even pretend to represent their interests.
Well, you know, I got to say this.
It's a crazy situation that we live in.
And I think, but this is the really most important because Trump is kind of a harbinger of the old America.
He grew up in the 50s and 60s, and he remembers what America used to be.
And that was like the gist of the interview that I did with the Barnes Review.
And we're about to get to that.
I was going to say, I don't know if you meant to set it up so perfectly or not, but I was going to say that's a perfect transition into this.
And we're about to hop over to that.
But I just want to say this about Trump.
You know, every time he says something that we really like, he'll go and he just gave a speech.
I think it was Jim Goad.
It might have been Jim Goad.
It could have been somebody over at Identity Dixie.
I don't remember.
I read so much and I read so many different people at so many different sites every day.
But Trump recently gave a speech to a Jewish group, not unusual at all, but he was talking about how if Kamala Harris wins, it's going to be the Jews' fault.
Now, he's pandering to the Jews, but of course, all of the mainstream media coverage about it was just talking about how Trump himself was so anti-Semitic by saying that if he loses, it's going to be the Jews' fault as if they have some sort of disproportionate amount of power or something.
And we all know that's not true, right?
But I mean, Jews are, and he was saying that the Jews are voting for Kamala 60-40.
I don't know where he got that number.
It's actually about 75-25, I think is what it really is, 75% of the people.
usually around 80 to 20.
It's 80 to 20 for Jews and 90 to 10 blacks, 95, 5 for blacks voting for the Democrats.
But the Jews, especially, who cares if it's 100% because they're only 2% of the population.
I mean, he is pandering so hard.
It's not really pandering.
I know he knows who runs everything.
He's not pandering for votes.
He's pandering for money.
Okay, well, then that, you know, that does make a little more sense.
But he'll say things just totally maddening.
But make no mistake about it, ladies and gentlemen.
When it comes to the Jewish question, no matter who wins between Trump and Harris, we lose.
And don't think for a moment, I know some of the Democratic base sees Jews or Israelis as whites, as colonizers, and so they're opposing them for that reason.
Not for the reasons we would, but for so-called anti-racist reasons and that the Democratic base is sort of a little more on top of that than the Republican base.
But make no mistake about this.
If Kamala Harris wins, she is an establishment Democrat.
She is not one of these on-the-streets radicals.
She is radical, but she's not radical in that way.
She is married to a Jewish man.
Make no mistake about it.
She knows what side her bread is buttered on.
Yeah, so I mean, there's just no doubt about that.
What I would point out about Trump is this.
Trump, like every other, and what's happening to Trump is he's absolutely right that Jews are voting against their interests if their interests are the support of Israel by voting for the Democrats because they try to keep one foot in both camps, one foot in the Palestinian camp and one foot in the Jewish camp and with a wink and a nod telling the Jews that don't worry, we're not going to harm you.
But Jews insist that they have the freedom to hate you and to be your political opponent.
And Trump is certainly the opponent of most Jewish voters.
They despise him, but you can't say anything about it.
And you have to prostrate yourself in front of them and tell them that act like they're the best thing since floating soap.
And see, Putin's the same way.
They hate Putin, but Putin doesn't dare say anything negative about the Jews.
You know, it's like it's the third rail of American politics.
You know, I'm not the first person to say that.
Well, I'm just saying, I mean, a lot of people, a lot of our people get upset and rightly so over his pandering and subservience.
But make no mistake, she is not going to be any better on that issue, whereas he might be better on some of the other issues.
And I think you just listen, I'm telling you.
The main issue that he's going to be, yeah, the issue that he's going to be best on for us is Ukraine.
And Ukraine is more important than Israel right now.
And the reason is the adversary of Ukraine, Russia, has the largest nuclear arsenal of any nation in the world.
And you're playing with fire when you play with them.
When you're playing with, you know, let's say Iran, Iraq, or Afghanistan, they don't have nuclear weapons.
So the stakes aren't nearly as high.
And, you know, it's worth voting for Trump just because he has promised to settle that war.
Well, and for other reasons.
The Americans don't want him to settle it.
They want to continue to keep things going.
But they've wiped out almost an entire generation of Ukrainian men and going for war.
And yes, and all that.
We do need to get to previewing this feature that you have coming up in TBR.
I think it's important.
But yes, you're right about all of that.
And again, even if it's a 1% chance he's going to be better on immigration, then we'll take that 1%.
I mean, I'll take 1% odds over 0% because make no mistake about it.
And listen, let's say Trump does win and he goes in and he just clowns around like he did the first time.
Okay, I mean, okay, we'll own that, I guess.
But if she gets in, you're going to, you don't even know.
I mean, 100 Katanji Jackson Browns, four more senators forever from D.C. and Puerto Rico.
I mean, that's all on the table.
Plus open borders, plus bad on Israel, plus bad on Russia, plus bad on everything.
So, and then you don't get the satisfaction of seeing the liberal media meltdown when she loses, which, again, that's just kind of what I'm in it for at this point.
But so, that all being said, that all being said, you said a moment ago that, hey, at least Trump can remember the 50s and 60s.
Some of our audience can't.
I can't.
I wasn't born until 80, and that's how we opened up.
The Barnes Review is such a wonderful history magazine.
And then here we have Keith, and I wanted to play to Keith's strengths on this one.
I've been wanting to do a feature with Keith for a while, and it just really gets into all of the things that are his absolute strongest suits here on TPC over the years.
In this interview, we talk about the long march through the institutions.
What does that mean?
What institutions were targeted?
Which ones were sacked and in what order?
I mean, we walk through basically the decline of America from the mid-1950s through the current day.
Obviously, Keith's pet issue, his signature subject, Brown versus Board, is mentioned at length.
Also, the 65 Voting Rights Act and the Immigration and Nationality Act of 65, how that was harmful.
But, I mean, yes, we know it's harmful.
We're not plowing new ground here, but we really spell it out in a succinct and concise way.
Affirmative action in today's diverse workplace.
How has that impacted society and whites specifically?
How the nuclear family has been bombed, frankly, by no-fault divorce and radical feminism and on and on and on.
It is a very good interview.
I knew Keith would do a good job with it, but what he sent back in was better than I expected, and they're excited about it over at TBR.
It's going to be coming out soon, so we can't give it all away.
They've got the exclusive rights there for a while, Keith.
But give us a preview here before we take our first break, and then we'll dive into just maybe one or two questions from that 10-part interview.
Well, it kind of relates to Trump because Trump's future, his success or failure in the upcoming presidential election will depend upon whether he effectively reaches out to the blue-collar middle class, the white working class, in other words.
And the thing that makes somebody like me so dismayed about what has happened during my lifetime is that I remember when we had a blue-collar middle class and a average guy that either graduated from high school or maybe even didn't graduate from high school.
Hold on right there.
We got the music.
We got the music.
What happened between 1950 and 2025, that 75-year period?
We pretty much cover it all in this feature.
We'll give you more details when we come back.
Hey, everybody.
It's Courtney here to remind you that TPC's third quarter fundraising drive is officially underway and will run through September 30th.
As longtime listeners know, the work of this radio program is both groundbreaking and essential.
It has been a very busy year, highlighted by powerful weekly shows and an aggressive tour of several states where we have worked to reinforce our tight-knit community at conferences and lively remote broadcasts.
Your support makes the work of James Edwards and our entire team possible.
Whether you are a longtime or a brand new contributor, we would appreciate your thoughtful consideration.
As always, we have some great incentive gifts for you, and established donors can learn more by reading the quarterly newsletter that has been mailed to you.
The remainder of this year promises to be exciting, and we look forward to sharing it with you.
Thank you again for standing with us and supporting TPC Third Corner Fundraising Appeal.
How many times do I have to tell you?
I swear it just goes in one ear and out the other.
Don't you understand English?
Your children are probably too polite to tell you.
Hello, those things on the side of your head aren't traps.
But they get just as frustrated when you won't listen to them as you do when they won't listen to you.
Do I need to speak slower?
In fact, few things show children how much they're valued and respected more than a parent's willingness to listen.
Tell me what you did at work today.
Studies show when parents listen, children develop better listening skills themselves.
They also tend to have more self-confidence and are more likely to avoid alcohol and drugs.
Now sit down here and tell me all about it.
When you really listen, love is what they'll hear.
Thank you for sharing that with me.

All right, as this year rolls on, still a lot to cover.
Still a lot is going to happen.
And we try to be where the action is, whether it is on these radio airwaves with you, ladies and gentlemen, every Saturday night or on the road as we have been pretty much all year.
I don't think there have been two, certainly no more than three consecutive weeks that we haven't been off doing an event or some sort of an appearance or a remote broadcast.
It's just been very busy.
And, of course, being able to further tighten our partnerships with the American Free Press and the Barnes Review and our relationships there with their editors.
And this is something coming up that we're talking about.
And that is a QA that we did.
We kind of kept it in-house with this one: me interviewing Keith about the changes that have occurred in America in approximately the time period from 1950 to 2025, that 75-year period.
My, how it's all changed.
What were some of the questions?
I'll just ask you, because rather than it's, I said it's a 10-part, 10-question interview.
It was actually just eight because you were covering things so comprehensively, it took up our maximum capacity for the column.
But rather than me pick out some of these, which ones do you think should be discussed tonight in giving this preview?
And by the way, folks, be sure to subscribe to the Barnes Review.
Well, I come from a white working class background.
My father was an electrician.
And I still identify as a working-class white person, even though I'm now a professional, you know, a lawyer.
And what is most dismaying to me is going back to the old neighborhoods that I grew up in and seeing what's become of them because of liberalism.
You know, nice, orderly neighborhoods have become slums.
And it's not an accident.
It was purposeful.
And racial integration of the public schools was a really, you know, gut-wrenching blow to the blue-collar middle class in America because it basically made it so that conscientious parents could not rely on public education in cities or in locales that had a large minority population.
They basically ruined the quality of public school education, which was excellent when I came up.
In fact, I think I say in there, everyone from the children of millionaires on down sent their kids to public schools.
If you went to a private school when I was growing up in Memphis, that meant that you were either a Roman Catholic or a problem child.
And now it's like the Emperor's New Clothes.
Nobody wants to encounter or affirm the fact that we used to have one of the best public education systems in the world.
Now we have one of the worst.
But still, you have people in high places like Washington, D.C., who celebrate the Brown decision every year, celebrate the Selma Bridge March, the civil rights movement generally.
But on the other hand, how many of those people send their children to the Washington, D.C. public schools?
See, there's massive hypocrisy.
That's what we're pointing out about Mark Robinson in North Carolina.
You know, we basically have allowed the left to make up all the rules.
And the rules are anti-white.
And it hasn't just affected the white population.
It's affected the entire population.
For example, if you have affirmative action, you're getting inferior candidates in positions of power and authority and wealth.
And everybody, black, white included, suffers when we don't have, you know, the best and brightest leading us.
And secondly, white people in particular are being denied equal protection under the law guaranteed by the 14th Amendment because of affirmative action.
And, you know, as we were saying with Mark Robinson, the Democrats feel no compulsion to be principled or to be consistent in what they do.
And it's what has happened to America is that white people are now at the bottom of the totem pole.
If you haven't got it made, if your family is working class and you're white, you know, what they're doing, they're not only just leaving you alone.
They're not giving you any benefits.
They're also pumping in third worlders to take your work and keep your wages down.
All right.
Let's.
Yeah, go ahead.
No, that's it.
Well, I was just going to say it's important to know, you know, the book, of course, where the right went wrong.
That's a tongue twister.
I always want to say white, which I guess you could.
I think it's synonymous in some ways, but it is important to know how we got here.
We just didn't wake up all of a sudden.
We went from this bucolic 1950s style America where the demographics were like night and day compared to what they are now.
You know, Keith, you were.
100% white.
Yeah, you, you, you and segregated at that time still.
I was in a books, an antique store.
You've got these your books, Keith, of course, and you've showed me yours, but I was out of state and went to a bookstore, and they had stuff from the 50s and even the 60s.
And you look through every class in this high school, every page, 100% white.
And you just didn't wake up all of a sudden one day and you went from that to this.
I mean, it was a slow and gradual burn or decline, if you will.
And Keith hammers it out here just expertly.
I think it's just something we want you to see.
It's very good.
Now, applying what you covered in this article, all of these different pivot points, if the Republicans had any courage and if they had the courage to actually represent and even seek out, at least to seek out, to actively seek out the people most likely to vote for them, what part of this Q ⁇ A, Keith, do you think that they should focus on not just to satisfy us, but in a way that would actually translate into winning politics without being over the top?
Now, they're going to get called a racist no matter what.
I understand that.
They don't have to go, you know, fool Jared Taylor.
But if they could just talk about one of the things in here and package it in a way that's somewhat palatable for today's modern political parlance, what piece of this would you recommend would be something that they could do that would re-engage this white base that is considering sitting at home again and potentially putting Kamala Harris in the White House?
Well, we need to grab racial identity politics just like every other group has.
I believe in racial equality.
So if black people, Hispanic people, gay people, yada, yada, yada, as they said on Seinfeld, can have identity politics.
We need to claim our right to have identity politics.
And we need to go to the Republican hierarchy as an identity group and say, what are you going to do for us?
We heard about the Platinum Plan last time in 2020 for black people proposed by Trump and the Republican Party.
Where is a platinum plan for white people and in particular the white working class?
And there's, you know, there should be no shyness or apology about that.
The idea that somehow because you're white, you're privileged is laughable.
You know, it hasn't been that way really ever.
But, you know, what you did have in the 50s was a large blue-collar working class where a man who, you know, just graduated high school or maybe even didn't can provide a middle-class lifestyle for his children.
And because, you know, the key to upward social mobility is quality, public, free education.
And that's been taken from us.
Now, you have to either homeschool.
And at first, when they tried to homeschool, they're trying to arrest parents for homeschooling.
I remember that.
Or you have to have enough money to send your children to private schools.
And even then, when they get out, they're going to be white people.
So they're at the back.
I'm looking for this Q ⁇ A. I'm looking at the Q ⁇ A and your answers.
And I don't think, honestly, I don't think there's anything here that any current Republican would come even close to touching.
I guess we'll have to settle for maybe, and it hadn't happened yet.
And if it had happened by now, I don't know if it's going to happen before Election Day.
And maybe them just including the word white at some point in the list of sexual orientations and Trump's victory.
If Trump cannot effectively reach out to the white working class, the white working class is going to say, well, there's nothing in me for me in this election.
So I'm going to go down to the cabin and ride around on the lake on my jet ski or go to an oldness football game or whatever.
I think that could be it.
It's possible.
I mean, yes, you can get into election fraud and all of that.
I'm not saying that that's not warranted and that that's not going on to an extent.
But at the same time, there is an indisputable percentage of white people who did not vote for Trump in 20, who did vote for him in 16, and their participation in this year is still to be determined.
So we'll see.
Yeah, you're right.
And that's the key.
The key to that election for Trump is not converting liberals into conservative.
It's getting non-voting white working class people to actually go out and vote.
And Jared Taylor, Jared Taylor mentioned an incredibly good, borderline explicit, but certainly firmly and undeniably implicit pro-white comment that Trump made without using the word white, talking about how these third world people are going to change.
Pennsylvania won't be Pennsylvania anymore.
I mean, it was more than a dog whistle.
I mean, it was pretty good.
But that's what I was looking for.
Thank you, Keith.
Yeah, it was a dog siren.
But we'll see.
Because I tell you, and when you're talking about these minuscule number of votes that it's going to take to win or lose in these swing states, we talk about Trump either winning or losing three swing states by less than 100,000 votes in 16 and in 20.
You re-engage this base, quit going after the 2% of Jews that are going to vote 80% for Kamala or 2% of blacks who are going to go from Democrat to Republican.
Yeah, go for this base.
Thank you, Keith.
We'll talk to you again next week.
We'll be right back with Taylor Young.

Kenyan police have accused of using excessive force during protest at the country's parliament complex in June.
The investigation, bucked by witness testimony and video analysis, also accuses Kenyan police of arbitrary arrests, abductions, and assaults on medical workers.
The report alleges that some officers wearing masks and riding in and marked vehicles fired on protesters using submachine guns and G3 rifles.
Police are also criticized for not taking measures to facilitate the protests or minimize injury and property damage, despite prior warning of the demonstrations.

The Czech Republic Central Bank has cut its key interest rate for the seventh time in a row.
As inflation remains low and amid the economy's slow recovery, it brought the interest rate down by a quarter of a percentage point to 4.25%.

New York City Schools Chancellor David Banks, the head of the largest school system in the United States, submitted his resignation effective at the end of the calendar year on Tuesday.
Correspondent Bertie Bennett with details.
Banks' decision to step down came after federal agents seized his phone and other devices earlier this month.
A number of other New York City officials have been subject to seizures of searches in recent weeks amid multiple federal criminal investigations surrounding Mayor Eric Adams and his administration.
Banks is the latest member of Adams' administration to depart or announce plans to, following Police Commissioner Edward Cabin, legal advisor Lisa Zornberg, and Health Commissioner Ashwan Vassan.
Banks' brother Philip serves as the city's deputy mayor, and their other brother Terrence runs a consulting firm locally.
All three of them, in addition to David Banks' partner Sheena Wright, who works as a first deputy mayor, had their phone seized by law enforcement.

Welcome back, everybody.
It would help if I turned my microphone on, I guess.
Welcome back, everybody.
This final couple of segments of the last show of September, we started out tonight with Jared Taylor, and we are wrapping it up with Taylor Young.
And you know, everybody on the show tonight was all together last week, a little bit north of D.C.
And that is actually something that's important.
You know, it's wonderful when you can collaborate and network with fellow travelers.
And when I first heard about Antelope Pill and started reviewing their catalog, of course, we were happy to run ads for them.
But being able to meet Taylor Young and some of the other principal team members of Antelope Hill Publishing twice this year now has really just solidified those bonds.
And it's great to have him back on tonight.
Taylor Young, a member of the Antelope Pill editorial team, back with us this evening for his monthly appearance.
Taylor, welcome back.
Oh, hello, James.
It's awesome to be here as always.
You have been widely traveled as well this year.
I know on your last appearance, you were in a car traveling from a different event.
So Antelope Hill definitely becoming one of the most well-connected and interconnected entities that we've got and is just so good.
I'm browsing through the catalog right here.
Little metal bookmark there now available for your purchase, ladies and gentlemen.
You don't want to lose your spot after all.
And Taylor's got something interesting tonight.
Well, he always does, but something uniquely interesting this evening, something that we haven't covered before, and that is a writing contest.
The 2024 Antelope Hill Publishing Writing Contest was titled Thinking About Rome.
And I'll read for you, ladies and gentlemen, the contest prompt very quickly.
The theme for the 2024 writing contest, Thinking About Rome, Analope Hill writes that we are looking for stories and poems about the perennial nature of human experiences, whether they happened yesterday or 2,000 years ago, as well as the intersection of our struggles today and those of times long past.
Submissions can be about the echoes of the classical world in modernity, the shadow of modernity in the classical world, or even about the inspiration one draws from those that came before him.
Now, this prompt is not limited to these ideas.
We wish to keep the topic broad so as to encourage a wide array of ideas.
And life is full of ups and downs, so the mood need not be limited to things, themes of victory and triumph, but we can also cover pensiveness, heartbreak, or anything else.
I misspoke earlier, Taylor, in saying that this was a writing contest that was forthcoming.
This has actually been wrapped up and occurred earlier this year.
It is now in a book for purchase, correct?
Yes, that's correct.
So we usually, this is we've done this writing contest every year that we've been a company.
We started it our first year, and we were just really blown away by the traction it got and the amount of submissions and the amount of quality submissions.
So it's become an annual thing.
So we usually run it from around March to mid-April.
And then it takes us a while to go through all the submissions and decide what gets in the book, decide who the winners are, and then we publish it.
So we just recently put out the book.
So it's a collection of all the entries that made it in.
And of course, you have the winners in there as well.
So you were talking, I thought it was cool.
You were talking earlier about all the collaboration that's been happening.
I think this really fits because this book is a way in which we kind of invite the audience and people out there in general who share our views or who find value in our company and our mission to collaborate with us and to allow them to get their voices out there as well.
So I think it's a really unique, it's a really cool book, and it's a really important one to help support kind of continued cultural growth in the movement.
I couldn't agree with you more.
And I think it is so important to involve people who want to be involved.
As I told you, I believe it was you and I talking a few days ago.
The currency, the real currency in this movement is the respect of our peers and of our comrades and to be able to do something.
And I'm looking at this right now.
And by the way, folks, even though the 2024 writing contest there that Analope Hill has sponsored is over and the submissions have already been selected and gone through and put into a volume, there will be another one.
God willing and Jesus Terry's.
We're all still here next year.
They'll be doing it again.
So keep in mind that.
But I'm looking here at the table of contents, and you can look along for yourself, folks, at antelopehillpublishing.com.
You didn't just receive a half a dozen submissions and you had to pick the best three.
This is a pretty lengthy, and I mean an impressively long book.
And if these were the winners, it is very encouraging to me to know that you had so many people send in written works.
That is a true triumph right there.
Oh, yeah.
No, it's always a little bit of a gamble in a sense to do this because we can never be sure exactly how much material we'll get.
But so far we've always gotten well over 100 entries and there's always been plenty of quality submissions that make it into the final book.
And when you give people a little recognition and you recognize their good work and their effort and you encourage them by doing this, it certainly only will lead to more activism and more efforts going forward.
If you have somebody out there eager to get on board and nobody gets a shot, we're all jealously coveting our own little institutions, then it's just not good.
It doesn't build a community.
So you doing this certainly does build a community.
And I wouldn't even know, my friend, where to begin in asking you which ones we should highlight or which ones we should mention here or showcase for a moment on the program.
But I know that you have gone through this and you'll be more familiar with the content than I am.
You have poetry submissions.
You have short stories.
What are, just to give people an example of what they might be reading through if they decide to make this purchase, what are they getting?
Yeah, sure.
So I wanted to maybe read a couple sections from one of my favorite poems, which is actually not one of the winners, but it is in the book.
So you can expect the winners.
If you like this one, then you'll definitely like the winners.
But this one is about two pages, so I'm just going to read the beginning and the end, and I think that'll give people an idea of what it's about.
So it's called Head of a Roman Patrician.
Unmoved, patient, the old patrician watches as tightly controlled dartings of hammer and chisel liberate his marble double from the rock.
An upright head emerges, chin and jaw are chipped and scooped in place, a lofty brow is shaved alive, and there like sentences, the deep plowed folds of age are written in.
Descendants, future guests will recognize the strength that bore an empire on its back.
In that stone poem, each facial line and fold as chaos ordered, lowness raised, a border pushed nearer to the edges of the map.
They'll see the master's proprietary eye, the straight spined pride that comes from 70 years of ruling over men, and in the veins rich blood from fathers, fathers handed down like a cup of precious wine.
This bust will be a testament in stone of noble stock, organic virtues cased in quarried rock.
Then an accidental spade, like a swimmer, he resurfaces to a new millennium's light.
They put him in a fluorescent museum in a city which was bogland when he lived.
Around him, the detritus of centuries, utensil fragments, stained finery, barbaric trinkets.
His house, family, nation are underground.
Stranded in a bloodless, sterile age, he keeps his arrogant frown, his senator scowl.
So this one's about, basically, you have this bust of a Roman patrician that's being carved out of marble.
And then, like I said, just for the sake of time, I kind of skipped a section in the middle where it talks about all the history that happens around him and the history of Rome and its slow demise.
And then at the end, he's dug up as an archaeological artifact and placed in a museum.
So that's one example.
There's a lot of different takes on the theme and different subjects that were covered by people, which is also really cool.
And not all of them kind of directly mentions Rome.
Lot of it, or some of them, like you were reading earlier from the prompt we it was.
You know we make a prompt to kind of get people's creativity going, but we we try to keep as broad, you know, an allowance as possible for for the submissions that people get, because we want them to to really be creative with it.
So there's probably like the central theme is is history and thinking about history, and and even that, you know, lends itself to a lot of different things.
You know, you have the, the tragedy of of just time passing, the tragedy of defeats that occurred, uh.
You have the triumph of victories and the great achievements that our ancestors um achieved, um.
You have the lessons that can be learned from the past.
You have the continuity that we can feel with uh, people from the distant past and how that inspires us.
So um, there's really a lot going on in the book.
I'll say I mean that is an understatement because it clocks in at just over, if i'm reading this correctly, 246 pages, and that includes dozens, literally dozens of submissions between short stories and poems, and Taylor Young just gave you a preview of one of them, just one, and how beautiful and profound that was.
We're going to talk a little bit more about this when we come back.
The title that we were showcasing this month during Antelope Hill's appearance is Thinking About Rome.
It's a compilation of the Antelope Hill Writing Competition 2024.
We'll be right back, antelopehillpublishing.com.

Marxists are the sworn enemy of Western civilization.
Karl Marx crafted his communist ideology with the genocidal goal of destroying the European peoples.
Key concepts of communism are atheism and materialism, that God and Spirit do not exist.
Germany was smashed at the end of World War II, and communism emerged triumphant by controlling the political system, courts, mass media, educational system, and entertainment industries.
Marxists have imposed a tyrannical, top-down agenda of globalism and immoralization on the West.
The results are open borders, rampant crime, institutionalized corruption, sexual perversion, the destruction of the middle class, concentration of wealth, aimless youth with no purpose in life, and the hollowing out of Christianity.
But Kyle McDermott's book, The Declaration of White Independence, demonstrates how we can unshackle our people from the communist ideology and obliterate atheism and materialism.
The Declaration of White Independence is available at Dixie Republic.

And we're back.
Our final segment now upon us.
Last show of September, and we are turning the corner and entering into the home stretch of election year 2024, but not before.
We continue on with Taylor Young, and you will hear from Taylor Young, if not Taylor, another one of the contributors, authors at Analope Hill before Election Day during our installment in October.
And we'll give Taylor a moment here at the end to sort of preview.
We did this last month, but preview some of the exciting things they've got coming up with some very exciting writers.
But getting back now to thinking about Rome, Antelope Hill's Writing Competition 2024, this is a compilation of the submissions that made it through and were selected by the editorial team there at Antelope Hill.
And it is lengthy.
And I think that that is wonderful, Taylor.
I cannot stress that enough.
The fact that you got that many submissions shows that this is not a movement that is very small.
It is a vibrant and dynamic movement that is growing and intelligent, far from being the uneducated, inarticulate type of folks that the left would pretend that anyone who has these beliefs must be.
What you shared with us earlier certainly flies in the face of that.
And I know you've got many more examples that you could share.
Could you share just one more from this, just to give folks a little bit better idea?
Sure.
So one of the, like I mentioned, there's a lot of variety in this.
And there's some works in here that are a little on the humorous side as well, or there's something kind of clever going on.
So one of the best examples, one of the most unique ones, is the second place short story winner, which is called Zeno's Genie.
And it's about a math professor who finds himself being hunted by this genie that operates according to a mathematical paradox.
So it's kind of a very unique kind of Zaney tale.
It was one that we chose as the second place winner.
I'm looking through here at all of the different books that are available in the catalog.
So many.
I see, I remember Touch Grass, which was the competition, the writing competition for the previous year, 2023.
We did not cover that on the show.
I just remember reading about it.
But everything, folks, you can find things, titles that would fit everyone.
We say this every time we talk to Antelope Hill, but from children's books to Hitler's speeches at Nuremberg, things from historical nature to contemporary politics, some of Paul Kersey's selections, Generation 68, which talks about the elite revolution and its legacy.
We talked about that earlier this year.
So many other things there at antelopehillpublishing.com.
And I know, Taylor, that you mentioned that you seek just, I say just.
I mean, what you're doing is really groundbreaking in terms of bringing things to the table, translations from the foreign tongue into English, in some cases for the first time, bringing books that were out of circulation back.
And, of course, so many original works, doing it with Panache and with intelligence, making these selections that are things people need to be considering, but making them look good, pairing that together as Antelope Hill does, I think, you know, as well, if not better than anyone.
Perhaps better than anyone.
I don't know of anyone who does it better.
Let's put it that way.
Why is that important?
You know, we so often talk about current political events and the news of the day.
What's today's current headline?
What is going on with current events?
That is one thing we really haven't talked to you about is the news of the day, the political things.
How is the work at Antelope Hill going to help inform people to make better decisions in their daily life that would affect our political fortunes?
Well, I think one of the biggest ways is that to really have an understanding of both our enemies and ourselves, we need to have a good knowledge of our history.
Because if you lose your connection to the past, you lose your identity, you lose your will to fight or your reason to fight, and you lose an understanding of how your ancestors have fought and won in the past, or perhaps how they fought and lost, and what lessons there are to learn from that.
So I think that there's a very real sense in which our enemies want to destroy our history and make it something that is completely unknown to us.
And we are very proud to fight back against that by preserving all these books and making them easily available for people to access so that the past can't be wiped out.
And they look good.
They look good.
It's good material.
They're sharp.
The graphics are wonderful.
And we will say this much more often in the October, November, and certainly the December installments with Antelope Hill.
But it is not, hey, listen, we are into autumn now, and it's not too far away.
You're going to start thinking about Christmas presents and what great stocking stuffers these books make.
And that's what I've got to tell you.
Why support the corporate America, these Fortune 500 companies, the consumer conglomerates, when you could be supporting our people and get gifts that matter, spending your money with people who matter and getting your friends and family members gifts that matter.
Keep that in mind as we get ever so much closer to Christmas, and you can do that at antelopehillpublishing.com.
And I got to mention this because you hear the ads for Antelope Hill every show, in addition to now every show, ads for Above Time Coffee.
Some people ask about the spelling from time to time.
We've gotten more emails about Above Time Coffee Ad than any other ad I think we've ever run.
Above Time Coffee, A-B-O-V-E, Above Time, T-I-M-E, aboveTimeCoffee.com.
You want a great book?
You're going to have to pair it, Taylor, with a great cup of coffee.
You don't want that swill from McDonald's.
And these two organizations are interconnected in a way.
So when you're supporting Antelope Hill Publishing, be sure to get on over and get you something from Above Time Coffee.
And then you can really enjoy the written word to its fullest extent.
Is that an exaggeration, Taylor?
Am I hitting pretty close to home on that one?
Nope, you're right on the money there.
And there's so many different flavors to choose from as you hear in the ad.
So be sure to check that out.
Talk about Christmas gifts.
We're actually going to be working with Above Time Coffee Roasters for our Christmas incentive gift for the Christmas fundraising drive.
We're not even quite through the third quarter yet, and we still need a little help there, folks.
But that's something we're working on.
We like working with good people and networking with good people.
And you've got a good man here right now, Taylor Young.
The book we've been talking about tonight is a compilation, actually.
A lot of different authors and various themes as well.
Thinking about Rome, Antelope Hill's Writing Competition 2024.
Check it out at antelopehillpublishing.com.
It's at the very top of the page, right there in the upper left corner.
And then go over and get you a cup of coffee.
You can get the grounds.
You can get the beans at abovetimecoffee.com.
And Taylor, I know we asked you this last month, and it's ever-changing.
I mean, as I said earlier tonight, we moved every single guest that was scheduled tonight actually ended up taking a different time than they were scheduled for an hour before showtime.
So we changed things up and our schedule changes, and I know yours does as well.
But between now and the beginning of next year, what are some of the things folks can look forward to from Antelope Hill?
We've got about a minute remaining.
Well, so we are going to be putting out a book by Dr. Ricardo Duquesne fairly soon that is entitled Greatness and Ruin, Self-Reflection and Universalism Within European Civilization.
So very excited for that.
And that one will be out soon this year.
We're also working on another book from Paul Kersey and a lot of new translations.
We'll have more books from Germany.
We'll have more books from the era of the Spanish Civil War.
So it's a lot that we're working on here that we hope people will enjoy and take advantage of.
And more pairings, folks, that we have done.
We have paired up Taylor Young with David Duke and Sam Dixon earlier this year.
We paired up some guests last week.
We were going to pair up some guests tonight, and then we had that emergency in the first hour.
We're going to get that rescheduled.
But I like pairing guests.
I like the way the conversation flows.
And I think we're going to be doing something with Taylor Young and Nick Griffin pretty soon about 20th century fascist movements in Great Britain and some other things that we have talked about.
There's actually no shortage of pairings that we can make.
And Taylor and I have exchanged some emails about that.
So all I'm telling you is this is something that we have done now.
This partnership has blossomed into a monthly stop each month.
You're going to hear something from Antelope Hill, from one of their contributors, if not Taylor Young himself.
And I know that that gives me at least 12 good interviews a year.
And we're thankful for Taylor Young and all that the folks at AntelopeHillPublishing.com do.
Taylor, thank you, my friend, again.
And check it out, folks, at the website and abovetimecoffee.com as well.
For Jared Taylor and Adrian Davis, both on the program tonight, Keith Alexander will be back with you next week, October.
