Promoting Social Strife Through Valuing Diversity

Is It Only Those Blacks Killed By Whites Who Matter?
When I heard that a deranged white man male, who hated black Americans, murdered three black people in a Dollar General store in Jacksonville, Florida, I pretty much expected the editorial response.

The Demand for Reparations Proves That Affirmative Action Failed

The Left Want Poorer, Minority Neighborhoods to Have Nicer Things, but Fret That Them Having Nicer Things Will Attract More White People to Move There
Gentrification can be defined as the process whereby the character of a poor urban area is changed by wealthier people moving in, improving housing, and attracting new businesses, typically displacing current inhabitants in the process. We have reported, many times, on how the left are really opposed to gentrification. But the left have often complained …

The Lexington Police Department was investigating, with Lt Dan Truex stating that the LPD were “very interested in identifying” “who possibly …

The scorn heaped on Americans of Asian descent by black Americans since the Supreme Court’s decision in Students for Fair Admissions, Inc. v.

What’s Up With Tyre Nichols?

Racial Quotas in the Military
By John R. “Buck” Surdu Recently the Website American Greatness reported that “Biden Administration Opposes Merit-Based Military Promotions in Favor of Race Quotas.” This came on the heels of the recent Supreme Court rulings that reversed so-called “affirmative action” in college admissions. More on the orders here. Unfortunately, that ruling didn’t go far enough because …
Ethics, Morality, and Virtue: Relative vs. Absolute Meaning
Ethics, Morality, and Virtue: Relative vs. Absolute Meaning Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered over the face of the whole earth.” Genesis 11:4 “Then the queen began to lament and to weep, …
The Last Will and Testament of Mary McLeod Bethune

Liberals Beclown Themselves in Reaction to SCOTUS Decisions
Liberal reactions to the high profile decisions from the U.S. Supreme Court this week read like a parody account. On Thursday, the Court dealt a blow to affirmative action by invalidating race-based college admissions programs in favor of a merit-based system and the responses from many on the left were downright racist. Rev. Al Sharpton …
Welcome to the Revolution
I usually start my mornings perusing the news of the day. Yesterday, in under 15 minutes, I came across three stories of anti-woke rebellion. Was it just a coincidence, or is the rebellion beginning?

Corporate executives discover their flight over the rainbow doesn’t sit well with investors
In a sign that top corporate executives are finally grasping that investors aren’t on board with their walk on the woke side, there’s been a measurable drop in the number of references to green and social initiatives on earnings calls over the past few quarters. Unfortunately, this doesn’t mean their forays into social activism have …
No Matter How Low You Bow, You Cannot Bow Low Enough For The Left!
We have often mocked what I have sometimes referred to as The Philadelphia Enquirer¹ for its journolism² and wholly #woke kowtowing to the left, but it doesn’t matter: no matter how low you bow and scrape, you just can’t bow low enough or rend your garments and gnash your teeth in anguish enough to satisfy …
