Resistance See other Resistance Articles Title: The Battle Lines Grow Clearer This is adapted from remarks given at the 18th American Renaissance conference on November 13, 2021. Ladies and gentlemen, we’re here today because our country is dying. It’s hard to say exactly when it fell sick. Was it in the 1960s? Maybe the 1860s? Was it infected from the start? One thing is certain: On May 25 last year, the patient took a serious turn for the worse. A white man kept his knee on the neck of a black man for just a few minutes too long, and the country went insane. Of course, if a single act could set off the worst looting and arson in American history, it means anything could have set it off. The madness was already deeply embedded in our circumstances. These were a new kind of riot. Blacks didn’t just burn down their own neighborhoods as they always have. They sacked the most fashionable retail districts in the country: The Magnificent Mile in Chicago, Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, Fifth Avenue in New York. August 10, 2020, Chicago: Shattered windows by looters at Timberland at Michigan Avenue. Hundreds of people swept through the Magnificent Mile and other parts of downtown Chicago smashing windows, looting stores. At least 13 police officers were injured, 2 people shot and more than 100 arrested.

American corporations — many of them victims themselves of millions of dollars from looting and arson — poured billions of dollars into BLM organizations. Countless rioters had charges dropped. It was as if the January 6 rioters had got blanket amnesty, an apology, and Donald Trump got a second term. Almost everything about the George Floyd riots was wrong or vicious or stupid, but the most ominous was the apparently widespread belief that black anger should be appeased by taking down statues of Christopher Columbus. Thirty statues and memorials were either torn down by mobs or taken away by terrified city fathers who were afraid their darlings might get hurt if they tried to tear them down themselves. What on earth did Columbus have to do with what happened in Minneapolis on May 25? At the time of the race riots of ’60s, no one — and I mean no one — would have dreamed of a connection between Columbus and black mayhem. But in the half century since then, many people began to believe that every single white person is personally, individually, and forever responsible for every form of black or brown failure and degeneracy. That’s what the slogan white silence is violence means. Every moment you aren’t bellowing “Black Lives Matter,” you are committing violence. Even in your sleep, so far as I can gather. All whites are guilty. Of what? Of being white. And Columbus is the origin of this evil because he was the first to bring this plague of whiteness to the entire Western Hemisphere. And that is why everything we have done since 1492 to this very day is a list of crimes for which each one of us is guilty. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
