State University Diversity Center Gathers to Debate How to “Cancel” Thanksgiving
I never graduated from the University of Buffalo, but now I am happy to say I did not. The Universities Intercultural and Diversity Center (never had one when I was there 40 years ago) is trying to cancel Thanksgiving.
Kamala Thinks The World Would Be Better Off If America Had Never Existed
Kamala is absolutely correct that the European colonizers of America “ushered in a wave of devastation for tribal nations — perpetrating violence, stealing land and spreading disease”:
Watch – Teacher to Parents : We’re Lying to You, A History Teacher’s Warning
History teacher Angela Bittinger certainly does not speak for all teachers or all public schools. But when she says, “If you trust your government, your history teacher did not do their job,” she brings up an excellent point. I’ve heard from enough teachers in New Hampshire to know that the culture and climate has deteriorated, and parents need to take action.
Exposing The “Indigenous People” in North America Lie … (Again!)
Columbus Day is only six weeks away and some folks will want to call it indigenous people’s day. But we have demonstrated on these pages repeatedly that 1) North America had no indigenous people and 2) those that came here frequently displaced others long before Columbus and long after.
Republican National Committee: RESOLUTION ON CRITICAL RACE THEORY
Adopted by the Republican National Committee:
WHEREAS, Racism is evil and inconsistent with our nation’s founding precepts that all are created equal and each has unalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness;
Relativism Versus Reality: Ralph Peters and Endless War
Since 1968, when my essay “The Crisis of Our Times” appeared in the Congressional Record, I have written several books warning of the pernicious and subversive influence of the university-bred doctrine of moral and cultural relativism.
The Fall of Kabul
Rudyard Kipling understood Afghanistan: “When you’re wounded and left on Afghanistan’s plains, and the women come out to cut up what remains, jest roll to your rifle and blow out your brains and go to your gawd like a soldier.”
So, Racism (Unlike Gender) Is Defined at Birth?
The science of the left is “pseudo” at best, fiction – more often than not – and otherwise just mad. Failure is not only an option; it is a justification to push harder in all the wrong directions, as is a blatant contradiction like racism vs. gender.
The Call to Teach More about Slavery and Racism May Have Merit.
Supporters and opponents of Critical Race Theory (CRT) debate the merits of teaching more about racism and slavery in schools. Some supporters of CRT have said, “opponents of CRT want our history white-washed.” They imply that some of what is taught in history is a lie.
“Socialism Is a Good Idea, but It Has Failed in the past Because It Has Been Badly Done” …
“It turns out that there is a lot of truth to the stereotype of the woke socialist millennial/Zoomer. The overwhelming majority of young people really do express stridently anti-capitalist views across a broad range of issues.
A Response to My Post on Robert Azzi’s screed in the Union Leader
This is from Robert Malaby, commenting on the post, “Is the Nackey Loeb School Ruing the Day It Gave Robert Azzi its First Amendment Award?” “What a repulsive piece from Mr. Azzi. Too many items to take issue with in a random internet comment, but two I feel compelled to address.”
John Robertson Was Prescient: July 4th – Independence Day Canceled.
In his Op-Ed for GraniteGrok (“The Birth of a Nation (and the death of another): Juneteenth National Independence Day”), he told us what our future history was going to be:
The Birth of a Nation (and the death of another): “Juneteenth National Independence Day”
Check out the above picture of the celebration when the bill establishing this “Juneteenth National Independence Day” passed the House. “White savior” Nancy in the middle. While I know that the folks on the left were not actually engaging in Nazi salutes,
Americans Can No Longer Remain Silent
Critical Race Theory is the latest element from the Left to promote hatred and division in America. It is completely racist itself and a total lie beginning to end. Consider:
Another “Native American” Decides to Push His Tribe Into Obscurity for “Honor’s” Sake
I just bought two containers of Aunt Jemima syrup yesterday at Walmart. No, not that “rebranded out of fear of the PC Cancel crybabies” Pearl Milling Company version.

The D.C. Area Has Been Turned Into the Equivalent of the Baghdad “Green Zone”
I love learning military history and logistics. Why you might ask? Well, my family has a long history of service – beginning in the 17th century – but, when I was of the age to join the military, girls were pretty much restricted to typing and nursing, neither of which I thought suited me.
The Eleventh Hour of the Eleventh Day of the Eleventh Month
From VA.gov: In November 1919, President Wilson proclaimed November 11 as the first commemoration of Armistice Day with the following words:
Palate Cleanser – and I Remember Dropping Trays of These
Even in the early 70s, secondary magnetic memory was rather expensive. At the BU Academic Computing Center where I was a student operator and teaching assistant, disk packs held 5MB 10 disks on a single spindle.
