National Review, that bastion of strong conservative intellectualism, has a race problem: It therefore strengthens the anti-white racism it is meant to satirize which, as it happens, is a growing problem in the U.S. — not in the suburbs or backwoods but in the corporate executive suites, the media elites, the courts, the bureaucracy, and [...]

This is helpful. This is a cartoon recently published by the Rome News-Tribune in Rome, Georgia. It contextually hits on a plethora of offensive and stereotypical imagery, but its inherent message in light of the Sandra Fluke fiasco is even more insidious: this campaign season will be the most heinous, well-funded exhibition of negativity ever. [...]

Is Civil War history just for white people? In reading the brilliant essay written on the subject by Ta-Nehisi Coates–one in which I urge all of you to read–the thought seemed illogical. After all, it is the crux of the American experience. The battle for individualism and freedom speaks to the heart of man, and [...]

Newt Gingrich’s efforts to cast himself as the white knight, cleaving through the murk of blacks leeching off government, exposed more than the seedy opportunistic side of politics–It laid bare an electorate fueled by racist mores. The interesting part about being a racist is the not so subtle manner in which you promote your racist [...]

I try not to riff off of another blogger’s work, even though there are a significant number of writers I admire greatly. But when I read this piece on Ta-Nehisi Coates’ blog regarding an op-ed written by a young black man in New York City, I had to link to it. Here’s the dagger for [...]

This didn’t take long:video platformvideo managementvideo solutionsvideo player Of all the reasons for Herman Cain’s spectacular flame out, being a brother wasn’t one of them. In fact I submit it helped him far more than it hurt him in his spectacular rise to the top of the polls. What’s more fascinating is Cain’s persistent calls [...]

The dilemma surrounding discussions of race has less to do with conflict between black and white. It has more to do with the intrinsic value systems inherited by many over generations. Witness a white southern woman discussing race relations and integration in her small Texas county: Jan Gannaway, a Haskell native who is white, said [...]

I wouldn’t say these jokes about Barack Obama are racially charged. They may push the envelope on good taste though. More broadly, they lack certain sensibilities. It’s almost as if Brown expected his audience to soak up the venom gladly. Not with the cameras running. I’ve heard worse, but don’t quit your day job Mr. [...]

God Bless Fox News for reporting on what is really important. The president finally decided to put the Guinness down, leave Europe, and pay his respects to those lost in the devastating tornadoes in Joplin. Fox breaks the REAL news. That news wasn’t the terrific, humbling, unifying speech given by the president. It wasn’t the [...]

Jerome Corsi’s new book, ‘Where is the birth certificate?’ | is #6 on the New York Times bestseller list. 17% of Americans still believe Obama was “definitely or probably” not born in the U.S., even after he produced his long-form birth certificate. No matter the evidence to the contrary, Americans will still chase dragons and [...]
