  • Latinos, Hispanics, and other racialized groups

    I find it interesting that the dialogue about ''hispanics, Latinos,'' and other groups who have been racialized without their consent, continues without the benefit of cultural, historical, and social perspectives from members of that group. We are, after all, either Latinos or Hispanics, because American society and identity politics have forced ...

  • Money doesn't buy happiness or love.

    A country founded by people who were persecuted, and we still are biased, bigoted, racists, anti-Semitic, hostile, angry, arrogant and blind to the person next to us and the world, because it was believed we could buy our way out. Since I was a child, all I heard was Americans were the lowest savers in the free world! We still are, and fighting ...

  • IQ is a Jewish Cultural Construct

    The problem with Saleton's paradigm is his acceptance of the IQ test as a measure, in fact, THE measure, of intelligence. His only evidence in favour of ''racial'' superiority is performance on IQ tests. However, the IQ test was invented by Jewish people.

  • "White" and "Black" folk, set your price

    If you want White folk to give up television for the rest of their lives, you'll have to give each of them about a million dollars. If you want White folk to be Black folk for the rest of their lives, it will cost you less than 10 grand per head! So indicates the latest study to underscore the fact that most Whites haven't a clue as to what it ...
