Over the past year, I have spoken with—and thought about—a particular demographic that should be open to White Nationalism, but which largely has not been: conservative Gen-Xers. They tend to reject White Nationalism as being un-American, as immoral, and most prominently, as comprised of losers and failures.

Killing Lincoln

The Z Man

1,160 words

One of the unmistakable features of modern conservatives is their not-so-veiled hostility toward heritage America. Some attribute this to ethnic hostility, given the infiltration of the Right by neoconservatives. Initially, these people made the journey from communism to anti-communism and were never conservative in temperament. Of course, the royal lifestyles of many conservatives has made them into unpleasant snobs. All of that is true to one degree or another, but it obscures an important point about modern conservatives.

An Open Letter to Vox Day

Spencer J. Quinn

2,260 words

Dear Vox,

Regarding your recent Darkstream entitled “White Supremacy, White Nationalism, and Other Fictions,” I’m finding myself having to infer what your position is on a number of topics. In this letter, I’ll explain why I remain confused on some of them so you can set me straight if you care to. I’d like to also further certain aspects of the discussion because I believe the Darkstream format—with your speaking more or less extemporaneously while fielding questions— Read more …

Lothrop Stoddard’s Reforging America

Margot Metroland

1,835 words

June 29 is the birthday of T. (for Theodore) Lothrop Stoddard (1883–1950)—scholar, lecturer, journalist, polymath, and author of many, many books.

Stoddard is best known for 1920’s The Rising Tide of Color: The Threat Against White World Supremacy, discussed two years ago here. Along with Madison Grant (1865–1937), author of The Passing of the Great Race (1916), and Prescott F. Hall (1868–1921), eugenics crusader and founder of the Immigration Restriction League, Stoddard can rightly be considered a father of the sweeping Immigration Act of 1924 (aka Johnson-Reed Act).

What is American Nationalism?

Greg Johnson

1,536 words

White Nationalism is not nationalism for undifferentiated, generic white people. Such beings do not exist. Every white person has a specific ethnic identity: a mother language and a culture. White Nationalism is ethnic nationalism for all white peoples.

Even in European colonial societies, where different European stocks have blended together, we do not have generic white people. If that were true, there would be no differences between Americans and Canadians. Read more …

Co je to identitářství

John Morgan

Členové Identitás Generáció před kinem Corvin, jedním z největších center odporu během Maďarské revoluce v roce 1956, u připomínky jejího šedesátého výročí 23. října 2016.

Následující esej jsem napsal na žádost maďarské pobočky Generace Idenity Identitás Generáció, za účelem překladu do maďarštiny. Původní anglická verze se poprvé objevuje zde.

Byl jsem požádán, abych představil koncept identitářství. Jakkoliv se toho velmi rád zhostím, je poněkud paradoxní, aby evropské skupině kázal o identitářství právě Američan. Read more …

John Powell & the Soul of American Classical Music

Alex Graham

John Powell

3,292 words

The history of American classical music has been shaped by the quest to define the nature of American identity. Lacking the rootedness and history of Europe, we have been forced to mold a new identity as a nation. Likewise American composers have been faced with the task of creating an authentically American sound.

A number of American composers during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries held the view that American music must necessarily reflect America’s racial and cultural inheritance. Read more …

L’identité raciale américaine

Greg Johnson

1,287 words

English original here

Les nationalistes blancs ainsi que ceux qui nous critiquent partagent une opinion commune: ils pensent qu’une identité raciale spécifiquement “blanche” n’a de sens que dans une société coloniale comme celle des États-Unis d’Amérique, au sein de laquelle des immigrants venus des diverses terres d’Europe se sont mélangés pour former une race blanche générique, Read more …

Перевод: Голубаев Евгений

И белые националисты, и их критики солидарны в одном – говорить о конкретно «белой» расовой идентичности имеет смысл только в колониальном обществе типа Соединенных Штатов, в котором иммигранты из многих европейских земель слились в общую белую расовую идентичность, Read more …

Identidad Étnica Estadounidense

Greg Johnson

1,099 words

Traducción por Francisco Albanese; English original here

Una opinión común entre los nacionalistas blancos y nuestros críticos es que una identidad racial específicamente “blanca” sólo tiene sentido en una sociedad colonial como los Estados Unidos, en la que inmigrantes de muchos países europeos se han confluido en una identidad racial blanca genérica, que es distinta de los grupos no blancos como negros, asiáticos y amerindios. En Europa, sin embargo, diferentes pueblos piensan sobre sí mismos como holandeses o italianos o daneses en primer lugar, no sólo como blancos. Read more …

White Nationalism FAQ

Lawrence Murray

2,640 words

There seems to be a bit of confusion lately over White nationalism, on Twitter and elsewhere. All too often, I see the same misconceptions parroted and read the same questions or critiques over and over again, with only a hundred or so characters to try to respond with. It gets tiring tbh, fam. With that in mind, I wanted to create a simple Q&A style reference post about White nationalism as I personally interpret it, Read more …

A Nice White War Movie

Margot Metroland

1,852 words

Where were you when Adlai Stevenson died? It was the summer of ’65, and I was sitting in a dark movie theater in Plattsburgh, New York with some cousins, and we were watching a very long, complicated, black-and-white war movie called In Harm’s Way.

In Harm’s Way was way over my head. It was an Otto Preminger production, thus by 1965 standards it was racier than the average fare, chuggy-jam full of intricate subplots about rape, adultery, class-envy, and other grown-up business that left me cold. Read more …
