Mainstreaming mediocrity and demonizing excellence.
The Back to Ebonics movement has been around for a couple of decades. It gained some traction in the seventies during the era when everything Black was pronounced as beautiful. Emerging from the ugliness of segregation and Jim Crow laws which did see the systemic evisceration of the dignity of Black individuals, the Black is Beautiful slogan was understandable from the standpoint of psychological preservation. Ebonics—the Black Vernacular that is believed to capture the unique and singular way many Blacks speak—was regarded by many as a means of also protecting the dignity of Black self-expression.
Schools, the BBC and practically every UK institution with an educational arm have become completely lost to identity politics. Just take the bizarre attempts to suggest that various historical figures were black, when in fact they were not.
Her racially segregated party was not the first time she has been overtly dismissive of white people.
Could be why people look away when Blacks attack Asians
Boston Mayor Michelle Wu remains unapologetic for her decision to host a holiday party on Wednesday at which only “electeds of color” were welcome.
“I am honored to be a part of this group,” she told the media outside Parkman House, the city-owned building where the party was held. “It is a long-standing affinity group that has grown in recent years here in Boston, Massachusetts.”
Its CEO has admitted no white male hire is made without her approval. Many would call it discrimination
Should be sued personally.
So there we have it. Laid bare for all to see, the pernicious effect of our national fixation with “diversity, equality and inclusion” (DEI). Aviva’s chief executive Amanda Blanc this week told MPs on the Treasury Select Committee that there is no senior “non-diverse” (white male) hire made at the company without her personal approval. There is no need, she implicitly admitted, to sign off on the appointments of non-white people and women. Most people would call that clear evidence of discrimination.
The good news is that Brit courts in recent years have found for white males who have encountered blatant discrimination such as this.

The Democratic mayor of Boston has sparked outrage after inviting city councilors to a holiday party intended only for ‘electeds of color.’
Michelle Wu’s invitation for the December 13 ‘Electeds of Color Holiday Party’ appeared to have been sent out to all councilors in error by her aide, Denise DosSantos.
DosSantos followed up the email 15 minutes later apologizing for the invite, clarifying that it was only meant for the city’s six councilors of color. The seven white council members were not welcome.
BREAKING LEAKED VIDEO: CEO of IBM @ArvindKrishna admits to using coercion to fire people and take away their bonuses unless they discriminate in the hiring process.

… When the Nazis invaded Poland, Black wrote in the Jerusalem Post, “IBM New York established a special new subsidiary called Watson Business Machines,” after its then- president, Thomas Watson. “IBM’s new Polish company’s sole purpose was to service the Nazi occupation during the rape of Poland.” Watson Business Machines even operated a punch-card printing shop over the street from the Warsaw Ghetto, the paperback claims.
Jewish Canadians will soon confront a new world that requires new allies
In the ever-shrinking world of the Jewish diaspora, Canada, along with Australia and the United States, hosts a most vital and comparatively healthy community. Yet in the midst of the current Israel-Hamas war, that community as well as those elsewhere, are under a siege that, at very least, will change their social and political orientation.
I doubt a major sea change is in the offing within Canada’s Jewish community.
Once the current war is over and forgotten the message will be softened and bygones declared bygones.
Many are shocked at the extent of anti-semitism that has revealed itself since Oct 7th but most were content to march in lockstep with their fellow “decolonizers” so long as white people were the primary target.
That’s because “decolonizing” whitey has an evergreen appeal to leftists given it’s institutional approval by all levels of Canadian government and our entire education system.
The left weaponized CRT, DEI, mass immigration, multiculturaism and diversity and they’ve been successful in their application so it is unlikely leftist Jews and organizations will give them up.
Kotkin’s version of “New Allies” doesn’t include President Trump whom he labels toxic. I wonder if he feels the same way about Trump’s supporters. It would only follow.
I’ll bide my time before accepting as an ally former decolonizers claiming to have had a moment of clarity.
Julius Malema, one of South Africa’s most notorious anti-white political figures, is threatening destruction if he and his ideologues don’t get a seat “at the dinner table.”
At the University of Washington, civil rights laws have not stopped blatant racial discrimination in faculty hiring.
A recent internal investigation into faculty hiring at the University of Washington reveals the exhaustive efforts that universities make to discriminate against white job applicants. After the university’s Department of Psychology identified a white candidate as best qualified for a tenure-track professor position in early 2023, the department’s Diversity Advisory Committee pressured the hiring committee to re-rank candidates in accordance with the methodology laid out in an internal handbook titled “Promising Practices for Increasing Equity in Faculty Searches” so that a black woman would receive the job instead. This handbook, obtained by the National Association of Scholars, spells out how to exclude candidates of undesirable races and ensure that candidates of preferred races get hired.
Social justice is a signature mission of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who has promoted it with incessant virtue signalling. Yet it is unraveling due to an amoral, self-contradictory ideology and incompetent execution. As a result, Canada is a more divided country, riven by interpersonal and communal tensions and afflicted by the worst outbreak of antisemitism in our history.
This is multiculturalism, this is diversity, this is mass immigration you bigots! Now if you’ll excuse me I have a DEI session to attend where I’ll learn all about my white privilege and have my heritage denigrated. https://t.co/K2vVzJRg3q
How far will the world let anti-Semitism spiral out of control?
Protesters storming school board meetings, pushing blood libels on Jews, and even a seeing menorah lighting cancelled – these are dark times.
A corner was turned in Canada on Oct 7.
Islamoleftism revealed itself to be far more malignant and far more widespread than most believed possible.
The most surprsed are the absurdly numerous Kumbaya Kool-Aid drinkers who believed Islamists were instantaneously made non-death culty on contact with our magic Canadian soil.
A reckoning is afoot and I speculate Oct 7 will result in the birth of a tribalized right.
On an individual level I doubt many who hold anti-semitic, sorry anti-Zionist beliefs will have a change of heart and the idiots who insist you can appease the crocodile will always be with us so long as the croc needs them.
What should worry Canadians is the looming shadow of institutionalized anti-white racism and the politicization of our justice system.
One of Britain’s wealthiest charities is changing its entire Board of Trustees as part of an anti-racism diversity drive after branding itself ‘white and privileged’.
The Tudor Trust is undergoing a woke makeover that has meant stopping all grants for 20 months while it ‘re-thinks’ its future and staff learn about ‘racial justice’ and ‘white supremacy culture’.
The organisation, which has assets of around £288million and gives about £20 million a year to good causes, was founded in 1955 by a bequest from Sir Godfrey Mitchell, founder of building giant George Wimpey, and several of his descendants are trustees.
BBC Radio 5 Live presenter Nihal Arthanayake has said an overwhelmingly “white” working environment is affecting his mental health.
The presenter told a journalism diversity conference on Wednesday: “It’s really affecting me that I walk in and all I see is white people.”
His colleagues’ response when he told them this was to reply defensively that they were not being racist, he claimed, as he added that this was missing the point.
The murder of a 16-year-old boy could prove a “tipping point for French society” Emmanuel Macron’s government warned as civilians were told not to take the law into their own hands.
The stark words from spokesman Olivier Véran came as officials called for calm after armed “paramilitary” activists marched in a suburb where suspects arrested over the killing are thought to live.
The teenager, named only as Thomas, was killed on November 19 at a village dance party in Crépol, south of Lyon. He was stabbed during a brawl that is believed to have broken out when a group of youths, said to be from a nearby housing estate, tried to gatecrash the event. Nine people were wounded, four of them seriously.
