The Land of Lactose and Mead
Post Date: 2009-04-06 20:20:25 by Turtle

I’ll have more to say about it later, but one of the things that struck me while reading “The 10,000 Year Explosion” by Cochran and Harpending is their theory of Indo-European expansion (p181): We suggest that the advantage driving those Indo-European expansions was biological—a high frequency of the European lactose-tolerance mutation (the 1390-T allele). Certainly plausible since, as they point out, not only does it expand the carrying capacity of grasslands by a factor of 5, it confers greater mobility than other forms of agriculture. But they also mention the widely accepted fact that the Indo-Europeans were mead drinkers—although they don’t mention the ...

Black Conspiracist Whackjobs

From Publishers Weekly In an intriguing exploration of black folklore, Turner examines contemporary legends--like Ku Klux Klan ownership of a now defunct clothing firm--common in the black community. The author, who teaches African-American and African Studies at UC Davis, finds the roots of folk notions about racial difference in the contact between European explorers and black Africans, and in white attempts to control black bodies from slavery days through 20th-century riots. She offers close analysis of several persistent conspiracy rumors: black belief that white-owned firms directed at black customers, e.g., Church's Fried Chicken, are run by the KKK; that sneaker-maker Reebok is ...

Scandinavian runestone

Hoax or history? On November 8, 1898, a Swedish immigrant farmer, Olof Ohman, and his ten-year-old son say they found a Scandinavian runestone, dated 1362, wedged in the roots of a tree in rural Minnesota. Ever since 1898, when Olof Ohman, a Swedish immigrant working his fields in what is now Douglas County, MN, found the 202-lb., mysteriously engraved stone tangled in the roots of an uprooted tree, controversy has raged over the artifact’s authenticity. The stone, dated 1362, soon proved how difficult the search for the truth can be—and raised eyebrows over the possibility that North European explorers predated Columbus in America.

Why People Hate Zachary Smith: a Study in the Psychology of Villains and American Morality

The guy in the above picture pisses people off. Of course, he's supposed to. He is the villain of the 1960s TV show, Lost in Space. When the show first started, he was a "classic" bad guy -- completely dark and evil, with no redeeming qualities. The actor portraying him, Jonathan Harris, was dissatisfied with this version of the character, because he feared that such a character was doomed to death within the first few episodes of the show. And so he set about changing Dr. Smith into a comic villain -- a tragic, bumbling, cowardly, lazy character with just enough good in him so that the producers of the show would not be justified in bumping him off. The resulting character ...

The Paranoid Style in American Politics
Post Date: 2009-03-29 20:06:12 by Turtle

The Paranoid Style in American Politics is an essay by the American historian Richard J. Hofstadter, first published in Harper's magazine in November 1964. Written at a time when Senator Barry Goldwater had won the Republican Presidential nomination over the more moderate Nelson A. Rockefeller, Hofstadter's article explores the influence of conspiracy theory and "movements of suspicious discontent" throughout American history. Hofstadter begins by noting that: American politics has often been an arena for angry minds. In recent years we have seen angry minds at work mainly among extreme right-wingers, who have now demonstrated in the Goldwater movement how much political ...

The Curious Course of the Desegregation Wars

If you’re like me, you learned that “segregation” was an unmitigated evil before you were old enough to pronounce the word correctly. A whole generation of us got our first lesson in Constitutional jurisprudence from the early 1970s rock group Three Dog Night— The ink is black The page is white Together we learn to read and write The child is black The child is white The whole world looks upon the sight The beautiful sight And now a child can understand That this is the law of all the land All the land… Even sober legal scholars lapse into religious language when dealing with Brown vs. the Board of Education. “The justices of the Supreme Court,” ...

“When I think back on all the crap I learned in high school…,” Paul Simon mused in a popular song some years ago. Simon, of course, was in high school long before multiculturalism, Afrocentrism, Outcome-Based Education, bilingual education, Heather Has 17 Mommies, Holocaust Studies, and assorted therapeutic group gropes and mass seances in “counselling” displaced the deathless vapidities about history, life, and literature that typically spill from the lips of school teachers in all ages and nations. But no matter what sort of crap Simon endured in his high school and no matter what sort poisons the minds and spirits of teenagers today, it is as nothing compared to ...

The Fake White Slavemaster Black Slave Rape Epidemic
Post Date: 2009-03-18 07:29:38 by Turtle

One of the conceits of the militant Black movement in the US (in practice, that means most US Blacks) is that they are convinced there was some evil White rape epidemic against Indians and Black women. According to this hate Whitey line, White men are the biggest rapists in the past 500 years, or I guess ever. The whole history of White men has been a history of rape of Indian and Black women. When a Black woman looks in the mirror, she sees centuries of violence, of rape, evil rape, in her veins, in her soul, in her genes. This was a sexist campaign of extermination against Black women. We White dudes conspired to pollute their illustrious and Nobel Prize winning Black gene pool! Such a ...

Remembering The Alamo

March 6 marks the anniversary of the fall of the Alamo back in 1836. For more than 13 days, 186 brave and determined patriots withstood Santa Anna's seasoned army of over 4,000 troops. To a man, the defenders of that mission fort knew they would never leave those ramparts alive. They had several opportunities to leave and live. Yet, they chose to fight and die. How foolish they must look to this generation of spoiled Americans. It is difficult to recall that stouthearted men such as Davy Crockett (a nationally known frontiersman and former Congressman), Will Travis (only 23 years old with a little baby at home), and Jim Bowie (a wealthy landowner with properties on both sides of the ...

The Sexuality of Abraham Lincoln
Post Date: 2009-03-08 16:52:46 by Turtle

The sexuality of Abraham Lincoln is a topic of debate.[1] Lincoln was married to Mary Todd from November 4, 1842 until his death on April 15, 1865. They had four children. C. A. Tripp has commented that Lincoln's problematic and distant relationship with women stood in contrast to his more warm relations with a number of men in his life and that two of those relationships had arguable homosexual overtones.[2] Lincoln biographers, including David Herbert Donald, have strongly contested these claims and believe that there is no evidence of homosexuality in Lincoln's life.[3] As an astute politician, Lincoln was a man with many "friends," Donald says. In his letters, for ...

Our Presidents and Jews (My Title)

Issue of Oct. 31, 2008 / 2 Cheshvan 5769 In a recent article in The Jewish Star (Selective memory; Oct. 10, 2008) it was suggested that Democrats in the Oval Office are better for Jewish interests and for Israel than Republicans. Since 1920, there have been just six Democrats in the White House. Let¹s review the facts: 1) In 1933, FDR turned away a ship named The St. Louis, carrying 937 upper middle class and wealthy German Jews fleeing The Holocaust. They, and thousands more just like them, were sent back to Nazi Germany, to their deaths. When prominent American Jews begged FDR to publicly oppose the highly restrictive immigration quotas on the number of Jews who could enter the ...

Lincoln Had a Lopsided Face, Strabismus

We all have a good side. The problem is when the other side is horrible. Now, a new research has confirmed this in the case of President Abraham Lincoln. Laser scans of a bronze and a plaster copy of two life masks of Lincoln's face, belonging to the Chicago History Museum, show the 16th president's degree of facial asymmetry. "Life masks were in vogue in the 1860s. Lincoln cooperated with sculptors to make them twice, in 1860 before his first presidential nomination, and in 1865, two months before his assassination. Lincoln probably did it for political purposes more than posterity. It's the equivalent of TV face time now," said James Cornelius, curator at the ...

Benjamin Franklin, the Occult and The Elite: "Remains of ten bodies at Ben Franklin's home"

Benjamin Franklin, the Occult and The Elite Infowars.com January 11, 2005 A mason, Benjamin Franklin's links to occult secret societies have long been known. In the clip below, the History Channel talks about his involvement in the Hellfire Club, a secret society that conducted black masses and orgies. These bizarre, occult practices are still going on today in secret societies like the Bohemian club (Alex Jones infilitrated the Bohemian Grove and caught one of their rituals on tape -- click here to go see the video). In 1998, workmen restoring Franklin's London home dug up the remains of six children and four adults hidden below the home. The London Times reported on February 11, ...

The Truth about the Tuskegee Syphilis Study
Post Date: 2009-03-06 19:48:08 by Turtle
0 Comments
The Tuskegee syphilis study ranks almost with slavery and lynchimg as a symbol of America’s racist past. There is probably not one black American adult who does not know—or thinks he knows—about an experiment from the 1930s in which government health authorities deliberately withheld treatment from 400 black syphilitics just to see what would happen to them. In some versions of story, the government deliberately infected the men. At the very least, the authorities are said to have been guilty of withholding the effective treatments that became available in the 1950s. Blacks often cite fear of “another Tuskegee” to explain why few of them cooperate with public ...

Simo Häyhä (December 17, 1905 – April 1, 2002), nicknamed "White Death" (Russian: h1;k7;l3;k2;n3; i7;l4;k7;l8;m0;n0;, Belaya Smert; Finnish: Valkoinen kuolema; Swedish: den Vita Döden) or "Teaser" by the Soviet army, was a Finnish soldier, and has the highest recorded number of kills as a sniper in any major war.[1] He was born in the municipality of Rautjärvi near the present-day border of Finland and Russia, and started his military service in 1925. Before entering combat, Häyhä was a farmer; it was during the Winter War (1939–1940), between Finland and the Soviet Union, that he began his duty as a sniper and fought the Red Army. ...

Texas Independence Day (March 2, 1836)

When a government has ceased to protect the lives, liberty and property of the people, from whom its legitimate powers are derived, and for the advancement of whose happiness it was instituted, and so far from being a guarantee for the enjoyment of those inestimable and inalienable rights, becomes an instrument in the hands of evil rulers for their oppression. When the Federal Republican Constitution of their country, which they have sworn to support, no longer has a substantial existence, and the whole nature of their government has been forcibly changed, without their consent, from a restricted federative republic, composed of sovereign states, to a consolidated central military ...

Time to end Black History Month?
Post Date: 2009-02-23 22:38:08 by Rotara
0 Comments
Should Black History Month itself fade into history? Many have long argued that African-American history should be incorporated into year-round education. Now, claims that Black History Month is outdated are gaining a new potency, as schools diversify their curricula and President Barack Obama's election opens a new chapter in the nation's racial journey. "If Obama's election means anything, it means that African-American history IS American history and should be remembered and recognized every day of the year," says Stephen Donovan, a 41-year-old lawyer. Ending "paternalistic" observances like Black History Month, Donovan believes, would lead to "not ...
