Good Morning from the Zundelsite:
My black friend, Anita, is one of the fiercest Revisionists
I know. She is, to my knowledge, the only black person who has ever attended
a Revisionist conference, but she took to the cause like the proverbial
duck took to water.
She and I have had a lot of lengthy conversations on the phone about issues
that unite or divide us, whatever the case might be, and we have both discovered
that there is very little disagreement on any single one - except when it
comes to one word, which is, of course, "racism."
Anita, who is light-skinned, will always say to me: "I am more white
than black. Culturally, I have nothing whatsoever in common with someone
from Nigeria."
Her biggest argument is that racism - why, curse the very concept! - might
make sense in decrepid Europe where there are many, many pockets of so-called
"ethnic purity" but that it makes no sense at all on the Enlightened
Continent, what with the Melting Pot idea.
I keep on telling her that motley mating means the demise of white AND black
at the expense of grey, and she keeps telling me that Europeans, though
they are rational and reasonable human beings in every other way, have this
one blind spot in their psyches, attesting to arrested grasp of what is
good for them.
I tell her that the kind of "racism" that I knew in the place
where I grew up was a good, healthy, wholesome thing, not a bad thing at
all. It simply meant what it proclaimed: "Love for one's race."
It did not mean hate for another race; that never even entered into the
equation. It was as natural and positive as love for one's own family. And
just because you loved your family did not mean, automatically, that you
despised somebody else's family.
We have gone round and round and round on this one, but Anita, I can tell,
flinches ever time the word comes up and I launch into my interpretation.
For her, here in America, the word means ethnic tyranny. Next, she bemoans
the fact that, even after centuries, her people never quite belonged, which
is White society's fault.
So how did the word and the concept become so incredibly loaded? I'll show
you a "for instance," via crumb trail. The speaker was one Israel
Cohen, a Jewish Communist, who said the following prior to World War I:
". . . We must realize that our Party's most powerful weapon
is racial tension. By propounding into the consciousness of the dark races
that for centuries they have been oppressed by the whites, we can mould
them to the program of the Communist Party.
In America, we will aim for subtle victory. While inflaming the Negro minority
against the whites, we will endeavor to instill in the whites a guilt complex
for their exploitation of the Negroes.
We will aid the Negroes to rise in prominence in every walk of life; in
the professions and in the world of sport and entertainment. With this
prestige, the Negro will be able to inter-marry with the whites and this
will begin the process which will deliver America to our cause . . . "
These words were repeated by an American congressman some 30 years ago
and published in an Australian newspaper. The person who sent us this clipping
did not include a reference; therefore, if someone has the time, it might
be worth to double-check the original source and context in the June 7th,
1957 Congressional Record.
I think this is an extraordinary statement. If someone has the time, I'd
like this double-checked. It could well be one key to why we hear so much
of O.J. Simpson. Endlessly.

Thought for the Day:
"The menace of Bolshevism is simply incalculable . . . it is a war
of the hand against the brain. For the first time since man was man there
is a definite schism between the hand and the head.
Every principle which mankind has thus far evolved: community of interest,
the solidarity of civilization and culture, the dignity of labor, of muscle,
of brawn, dominated and illuminated by intellect and spirit - all these
Bolshevism howls down and tramples in the mud."
(Lothrop Stoddard in " The Rising Tide of Color " )
