"Home"; a song with two meanings?

I know good music when I hear it. Though some of what I consider “good music” is debated by some, few could honestly argue that “Home”, by Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros, is not good music. It’s damn good music:
[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjFaenf1T-Y&w=420&h=315]
It’s a love song, but I sense a greater symbolism within it. If we examine the lyrics, it speaks of:
Traditional America: “Alabama and Arkansas.”
Love of the traditional family: “Ma and pa.”
American tradition: “Pumpkin pie and chocolate cake”
American religion: “Jesus Christ”
It speaks of the dangers white people face: :Through the jungle, through the dark.”
It refers to history and natural beauty: “Moats and boats and waterfalls.”
It appeals to redneck culture and is even sung with a Southern drawl.

Alabama, Arkansas
I do love my ma and pa
Moats and boats and waterfalls
Lay awake ’till break of dawn

I wonder how many fans see a deeper meaning in this. We are all working toward the “break of dawn” because we value our traditions – our “ma and pa”. We will do whatever it takes to get there – moats and boats and waterfalls.

College under fire for anti-anti-white cartoon

Apposing Views reports that a Texas college is under fire for publishing a cartoon, mocking the blatant anti-white bias in the media, in its newspaper:

A college newspaper in Texas is under fire for a cartoon related to the Trayvon Martin case that some find offensive.
The New York Daily News reports that the cartoon appeared in the Daily Texan, the newspaper of the University of Texas at Austin…
The student who drew the cartoon said it was meant to be a commentary on the media coverage of the story.
“I feel the news should be unbiased. And in the retelling of this particular event, I felt that that was not the case,” Stephanie Eisner told the Daily Texan. “My story compared this situation to yellow journalism in the past, where aspects of news stories were blown out of proportion with the intention of selling papers and enticing emotions.”
However she didn’t seem to get her message across and many people found it offensive, especially the use of the word “colored.”
In an editorial, the newspaper’s adviser admitted Martin’s name should have been spelled correctly and perhaps “colored” could have been avoided. But Doug Warren defended the idea behind the cartoon.

Here’s the cartoon in question:

It would appear that some people are offended by the misspelling of “Trayvon” and the use of the term “colored boy”. Therefore I have taken it upon myself to fix it. Here is the new version – which can now be plastered all over the internet, billboards, bumper-stickers and flyers without fear of offending anybody:

To Stephanie Eisner: Great job! I hope you don’t mind my taking liberties with your superb cartoon.

Europe's silent denizens

From lofty heights, Europe’s silent denizens gaze upon the fleeting masses.
Their expressions, fixed in stone, betray the horror of those long passed.
As though they knew, so long ago, that their seed would betray them. That glory, from their grasp, would be snatched.
That victory, once sure as the rising sun, would give way to mercy – and mercy to surrender.
That the magnificence that was Europe, would fade away. Its beauty turned to squalor.
The gargoyles of Europe have witnessed all this. Until this day, we could not understand.
We could not know their anguish, the contortion of their faces.
Now it is clear, they weep for their land.
The masses below have become like them, voiceless and frozen with fright.
The enemy has entered the gate. The dragon has slain the knight.


















On the verge of victory, the knight took pity upon the dragon, whereupon it turned on the knight and slew him. His children cried and said: Father! How cruel is your pity, for you have sold your own seed to slavery and extinction.

"Mainstream media" beginning to backtrack on Martin shooting

Two recent articles caught my eye today. Both presented a balanced view and admitted to the facts in a way previously only in the blogosphere.
One, by Dylan Stableford of The Cutline (featured on Yahoo) reads, in part:

“With a single punch,” the Orlando Sentinel, citing police sources, reported Monday, “Trayvon Martin decked the Neighborhood Watch volunteer … climbed on top of [him] and slammed his head into the sidewalk several times, leaving him bloody and battered.”
“That is the account Zimmerman gave police,” the paper said, “and much of it has been corroborated by witnesses, authorities say.”
Zimmerman’s attorney, Craig Sonner, says that Zimmerman acted in self-defense and is not a racist as some have portrayed him.
“I think we need to let the investigation come forward and let all the facts in this case come out,” Sonner said on the “Today” show. “I think it’s going to tell a different story than the way it’s been related and portrayed in the media.”…
“The media is getting the Trayvon Martin story wrong,” Michael Brendan Dougherty wrote on BusinessInsider.com, comparing it to the 2006 Duke lacrosse case, in which three members of the lacrosse team were accused of rape, resulting in a media firestorm and public outcry. The accuser’s case unraveled, and the charges were eventually dropped.
“Oh how little we have learned,” David Shane wrote on PolicyMic.com. The media has rushed to judgment yet again. Now, it’s quite possible that Zimmerman is guilty of everything his worst foes accuse him of. There is plenty about this case that troubles me. But that’s exactly the point—I don’t know. Neither does anyone else, and both the scope and tone of the media coverage ought to reflect that fact.”

Another story (also on Yahoo) reads:

“The media has been quick to demonize George, but Trayvon Martin was no angelic boy walking,” Meza said.

Zimmerman’s attorney, Craig Sonner, has said in more than one interview that his client’s nose was broken during the fight with Martin.

The Orlando Sentinel has reported that Martin grabbed Zimmerman’s head and banged it several times against the sidewalk. Sonner said the gash on the back of Zimmerman’s head probably was serious enough for stitches, but he waited too long for treatment so the wound was already healing.

Zimmerman said he began crying for help; Martin’s family thinks it was their son who was crying out. Witness accounts differ and 911 tapes in which the voices are heard are not clear. A statement from Sanford police said the newspaper’s story was “consistent” with evidence turned over to prosecutors.

Martin was at least 6-feet, several inches taller than the 5-foot-9 Zimmerman. Meza said Martin was not the child he appears to be in photos flashed across television and newspapers.

But I have a nagging suspicion, given their track-record, that the main motivation for this backtracking is the realization that Zimmerman was not white. When organizations such as the Associated Press, Yahoo and the New York Times start reporting such incidents fairly even when whites are involved, at that point I might believe that they’re repenting from their evil ways.

HBD Day

Olave d’Estienne has suggested there be an annual HBD Day. Here is some of what he wrote, in an email to me:

I propose that race realists launch an international Human Biodiversity Day.  The idea would be to discuss HBD issues in new and different venues, preferably running the gamut from African IQ deficits and criminality to the ability that Asians can healthily carry more body fat than other groups (as mentioned in Mr. Sailer’s “Is Love Colorblind?” article).
Some suggestions for rank-and-file race realists who want to observe Human Biodiversity Day:
A.  In a setting where you race realism isn’t tolerated, just ask acquaintances casually if they know what “HBD Day” is.  Just say you have no idea what it stands for and wondered if anyone knew.
B.  Use the day as a time to politely bring up HBD questions on mainstream conservative sites.  No site should be bombed with an overwhelming number of messages, but as many as possible should get an HBD post from more than one race realist.
C.  Make race realist comments on mainstream news articles (AP, etc.) on the web, especially racially tendentious ones (asserting, e.g., that if a black person is accused of a crime it must be a false accusation).
D.  Broach the subject in a low-key way to trusted friends, sort of like “coming out day” for race realists.
Suggestions:
Our manner should be dispassionate, not angry or tongue-in-cheek, and emphasizing publicly-available statistics like victimization reports and standardized test scores…

Which day should be HBD Day? He writes:

What day?
Since May 1st is International Workers’ Day, and since race denialism is designed to shore up the affirmative action and immigration that are hurting the white working class so much, I suggest May 2nd as the obvious day to symbolize a sort of “new and improved” May Day.  Other days may also be suitable.

My initial reaction is that I like the idea. We can print up “Celebrate HBD Day” t-shirts and bumper-stickers. It would give us an excuse to celebrate, and be positive about,  something we often feel negative about. Celebrating it just before Cinco de Mayo would help give the masses a helpful perspective to that holiday. We might even be able to leverage it to our advantage.

Selected photos from my Tennessee/Kentucky trip

I love visiting the South. I enjoy the history, what remains of the culture, and the dialects. For a while it was an independent country, but living relics of that country are getting harder and harder to come by. Even stone monuments are being removed – for he who controls the past controls the present and it wasn’t enough to simply subjugate the Southern people, powerful forces are working to erase all vestiges of the Old South.
I make no claims that the Old South was perfect, but this doesn’t mean I cannot take interest in what remains of it. I spent about two days in Kentucky, and a brief drive through Nashville, after the latest American Renaissance conference. I’ll share some of the photos with y’all.
The biggest attraction in Kentucky was Mammoth Caves, the largest cave system in the world.





Even at Mammoth Caves, we are not permitted to forget the “legacy of slavery” or the “African-American/Hispanic experience”.



At least there were no claims that black slaves built the caves, or that ancient Africans were the first to discover them. But here’s something you don’t see every day:

“IKA” stands for “Imperial Klans of America“. I chose not to trespass. Here’s a view inside:

And here is the road leading to the compound:

Don’t ask how I knew where it was – but it wasn’t far from an old cemetery. You don’t see tombstones like these much anymore:



Those people were clearly very poor. Here’s an old schoolhouse:

And a couple of nice buildings in Nashville:

Previews of some of the Amren 2012 speeches

In the near future, American Renaissance will offer high-quality DVDs of the 2012 conference speeches. In order to avoid undermining their sales, I am only publishing the first few minutes of the speeches I recorded. Unfortunately, I did not have the presence of mind to record the first two speeches, those of Weissberg and Kurtagic.
Here they are:

National outcry over killing of black thug by Hispanic

A Hispanic man killed a black thug in self-defense and the nation is inundated with news stories telling us how the “victim”, Trayvon Martin, was a martyr, murdered for the color of his skin. The media frenzy features photos of Trayvon, taken years ago, showing him as an innocent teen. The president speaks out in outrage, equating Trayvon with his own son – if he had one. Marches are organized in Trayvon’s honor and there is talk of pursuing hate-crime charges against the shooter, 28-year-old George Zimmerman. Zimmerman is half Hispanic, but the media immediately called him “white”. Then, when it became known he is only half-white, they started calling him “white Hispanic”. Very creative.
Shortly thereafter, three young blacks entered Mississippi State University and shot 21-year-old John Sanderson to death. Here is his photo:

Here is a selection from the above article:

University president Mark Keenum said Sunday in a statement on the school’s website that there was no indication that there was a danger to others. Keenum says the killing of 21-year-old John Sanderson of Madison, Miss., was the first time a student had been shot on the campus.
Authorities have said three men suspected in the Saturday night shooting drove away from the building in a blue Ford Crown Victoria. As of late Sunday morning, no arrests had been made.

The race of the perpetrators is noticeably absent but when Reuters first broke the story, this is what they said:

Authorities described the suspects as three black males who fled the hall in a late model blue Crown Victoria car.

Yahoo continues to make sure that the Martin story dominates their front page, but they had only one (very short) story about the murder of John Sanderson – and the fact that he was white was not even mentioned. Even that story disappeared from Yahoo after an hour or two. As of this writing there is no trace of it. News outlets that are covering it are downplaying it, calling it an “isolated incident”. Furthermore, they will either mention that the suspects are black, or show a photo of the (white) victim – but they shy away from letting their readers know all the facts. No “civil rights” organizations have spoken up about it, the president remains silent about it and there is no talk of hate-crime charges.
Given the relentless, and biased, coverage of the Martin story, it is very possible that Sanderson was murdered as revenge. It doesn’t take much to make blacks riot. It doesn’t take much to provoke them to spill blood. It is no stretch to say that the “mainstream media” is partly responsible for the death of Sanderson.
UPDATE: The death toll has now risen to two. Two white students, with their whole lives ahead of them, gunned down by worthless animals.

U.K. crackdown on freedom of speech reaches new extreme

Things are really getting out of hand in the U.K. The government’s intolerance toward “hate-speech” has reached new extremes lately. We are used to reading about native Brits having their lives ruined for speaking up about the invasion of their country. We’ve heard hundreds of stories about Christians running afoul of hate-speech laws for objecting to Muslim cultural idiosyncrasies.
But this takes the cake: A Muslim teen has been arrested for comments he made on facebook:

According to Sky News, Azhar Ahmed of Ravensthorpe (19) posted comments on his profile page, criticizing the level of attention British soldiers who died in a bomb blast received, compared to that received by Afghan civilians killed in the war. The actual comment can be viewed here. Please note this comment is controversial and might offend. He was arrested on Friday and charged over the weekend. A West Yorkshire Police spokesman said: “He didn’t make his point very well and that is why he has landed himself in bother.” Ahmed has been charged with a racially aggravated public order offence and will appear at Dewsbury Magistrates Court on 20 March 2011.

Imagine that! A Muslim getting arrested for a “racially aggravated public order offence”. Look for public apologies and soul-searching from the West Yorkshire police department in the near future. Somebody will probably lose his job over this.
You can read his entire comment here. Personally, I think the government is out of line arresting him. He’s entitled to his opinion – but I do not believe he is entitled to live in the U.K. I wish we could make a deal: Let Western nations remove all their troops from third-world countries, and let all third-world people be removed from Western countries. Everybody would be happier in the end.
