The History of White People

A new book has hit the bestseller list and is being promoted in every liberal nook and cranny imaginable. If one did a search on this book, and read the reviews, you would come away thinking that it was remarkable, insightful, and of intellectual merit. When I actually read it, however, it was incredible rubbish; not because I disagree with the conclusions, but because the author, Nell Irvin Painter, is simply an unintelligent Black woman. But the Left unashamedly promotes her book as if it had even a scintilla of redeeming value.

I saw Ms. Painter being interviewed by Stephen Colbert, where he mercilessly made fun of her while maintaining his liberal comedic bias—it was quite entertaining. But Painter, author of The History of White People, has been interviewed and reviewed by the more serious side of the anti-White establishment. Acclaimed for spending ten years researching and writing the book, she makes a mockery of Black scholarship—if that is not an oxymoron. In fact one only has to read the very beginning of the book and the very end, to realize that she contradicts herself repeatedly. The book makes no sense. It also struck me that she probably had read Noel Ignatiev’s How the Irish Became White and followed the same line of argument with slightly different material. The book was published in 2010, but it is apparent that she finished the book in 2005, just ten years after publication of Ignatiev’s anti-White screed.

In the Introduction she states, “Today, however, biologists and geneticists (not to mention literary critics) no longer believe in the physical existence of races—though they recognize the continuing power of racism (the belief that races exist, and that some are better than others). It took some two centuries to reach this conclusion, after countless racial schemes had spun out countless different numbers of races, even of white races, and attempts at classification produced frustration. Although science today denies race any standing as objective truth, and the U.S. census faces taxonomic meltdown, many Americans cling to race as the unschooled cling to superstition. So long as racial discrimination remains a fact of life and statistics can be arranged to support racial difference, the American belief in races will endure. But confronted with the actually existing American population—its distribution of wealth, power, and beauty—the notion of American whiteness will continue to evolve, as it has since the creation of the American Republic.”

Now let’s jump to the last chapter, “Subsequently, an intriguing discussion on race and genetics has been afoot among Jews. One side contends that Jews have nearly always seen themselves as a race, and that studies of Jewish DNA underscore the ‘tribal’ nature of Jewish religion. The other side warns about the chaos that could flow from focusing too tightly on the biological basis of Jewishness, for Jewish men and Jewish women do not share the same set of genes. While the Y-chromosomes of Jewish men show a relatively high degree of similarity all over the world, they are particularly close to the configuration of Middle Easterners of any background. Jewish women’s mitochondrial DNA, in contrast, shows much less similarity, leading to the conclusion that Jewish men often married non-Jewish women. Treating Jewishness as something in the genes risks fissuring an already heterogeneous community.”

What is so bizarre about this statement is that the same ethnic group that dominates cultural anthropology, sociology, and the biological sciences—that is Jews who she claims universally deny that races exist—are the same people who are claiming that they are part of the very real “Jewish race.”

She continues, “The biological meaninglessness of classifying people according to race remained the scholarly consensus until about 2002. Then research came to light that sought to lump DNA patterns by population groups. This work produced a theory that DNA falls into five major groups—Africans, Europeans and Middle Easterners, East Asians, Melanesians, and American Indians—which happen to correspond more or less to those of Johann Friedrich Blumenbach and popular views. (True to the disorderly history of race, a study in Scientific American in 2003 reported a four-way grouping.) The New York Times illustrated its story about this research with a long colored bar graph. Only in its last paragraph does the report explain that even though all people ‘share most of their genetic variability in common,’ the chart is based on ‘these genetic differences, not on the very much larger shared inheritance.’ In short, the illustration is neither helpful nor accurate, in that it wildly exaggerates differences while omitting the overwhelming degree of similarity. True to racial thinking, differences were stressed and similarities played down. The idea of biological race was reemerging as genetic science.” So she admits in the end that race does in fact exist according to many in the scientific community; take away political correctness and there would not be any controversy.

Continuing again she states, “This sort of reinterpretation seemed eerily familiar. Liberal social scientists and geneticists feared that some geneticists were once again searching for genetic causes underlying diseases like diabetes and cardiovascular

disease that reflect racial disparities likely rooted in injuries of class and history

. Lost in that speculation was the certainty that those diseases stem from a complex interplay between environment and the interaction of many genes, rather than the few genes governing superficial characteristics like skin color and hair texture. Furthermore, rather than addressing poverty, social disarray, and unequal access to health care, genetics could reinforce the class and race status quo, thereby echoing the hereditarian gospel of early twentieth-century eugenics.”

Again, the twisted mind of paranoid Blackness claims that pharmacogenomics is all about a conspiracy by White people for the explicit purpose of not having to spend money on the downtrodden Blacks. It is surprising that we ever even see White scientists in public, since they have to spend so much of their time threading together these conspiracies against “people of color.” Note how intelligent the Ashkenazi Jews are and how stupid are the Blacks; yet they both constantly pathologize White behavior. In the meantime, Whites just passively oblige both groups. We dutifully do as we are told, under the threat of being labeled as racist. It is all so transparent.

Perhaps we will decide not to endure it any longer.

Excellent! I can not bring myself to read the book.
But, trash though it is that will not stop it from having a powerful effect.
Many young white people will be giving this crap to read in college. It may become the book of one of these city wide book circles….Philadelhia Reads The History of White People.
But the strongest effect will be on the blacks who will be strengthen in their belief of the primacy of their existence.

More and more I get the feeling that I am reading Der Sturmer when I pick a newspaper.

A long time ago, mankind did not live on the earth but on the moon, and all human beings were Blacks. Then, a few trillions of years ago, the Blacks came down to earth, and the first thing they did down here was to build the city of Mecca. They lived there for many thousands of years and invented the Islamic religion and its holy book, the Qu´ran. Among them was a mad scientist named Mr Yakub, who had to leave Mecca because of a conflict with the leaders of Mecca. Mr Yakub was sent to exile on the Island of Patmos, a historical place that is also mentioned in the Bible. He was angry and planned to conquer Mecca and the entire black race. Therefore he started to do genetic experiments with his 59,999 followers to make them more powerful soldiers. As his soldiers became more powerful, they also became more cruel, violent and more pale. When his experiments were finished, Yakub had invented a breed of extremely dangerous violent devils: The white race.

When you have stopped laughing at Negritude’s very own version of Scientology, or at the Ebony version of Saruman’s Orcs, there’s alway this, which created a bit of a stir a few years ago:

Oh, the beat goes on. You might find this work on black sexuality ( not to mention white sexuality) from a scholar and therapist of interest.

“...... I am the first documented Social Scientist and Clinical Sexologist to conduct in-depth research into the sexual behavior and sexual practices of Black People in America, As a result of this research I theorize that the sexual practices of black people are virtually unknown because they are shrouded in myths, fairy tales and stereotypes developed over centuries by other races. ...”

Well, the white man does not come out very well in this analysis.

With things like this, Black Athena and now Painter’s work one wonders what black people actually believe.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but Nell Painter seems to be saying that white people are a group of people, who aren’t actually a group of people, who are an evil and malicious group of people.

I’m sad to say Noel Ignatiev’s book has gone international. In the last week I’ve seen it on the shelves at two book shops (including the Waterstone’s chain ) in N Ireland in the Irish Interest/History sections.

Poor Nell! Her initial book, “A History of Black People” floundered when she ran out of material when she got to the chapter about inventing the wheel, which meant that she never even got around to more brilliant African discoveries like, the raping of infants as a cure for aids. She was going to re title the original book, “A Prehistory of Blackness from the Paleolithic to the Present, An Unbroken Chain of Non-Development”, but the publishers thought that it was a bit clumsy.

This book, an academic polemic produced by a member of an ethnic group that is not, shall we say, “historically renowned” for its contribution to anything relating to grey matter, has been an unexpected hit for the publishers. With this in mind they are commissioning a series of books in a similar vein. Expected to reach the book-stands within the year are, “Dental Hygiene” by Stephen Hawkings and “Bangkok for the Under Fives”, by Garry Glitter.

More black scholarship: this is about Patricia Williams, BBC Reith lecturer.

http://www.thefreelibrary.com/SHE’S+A+MILITANT+BLACK+FEMINIST+WHO+THINKS+ALL+WHITES+ARE+RACIST+AND…-a0110865444

Even the fairly liberal Melvyn Bragg attecked her for her nonsensical theories on the BBC, and comments, not just on the unusual nature of her theories but on the oor grammar and syntax which shw employed in their exposition were freely made.

Posted by Gorboduc on April 07, 2010, 06:53 AM | #

I expect her spelling came in for comment too, so - she was attacked, not ‘attecked’, her grammar was poor not ‘oor’, and Patricia is a she not a ‘shw’.

The bit in the linked article about taking a hoaxer seriously reminds me of something in another context . . . can’t think what it is . . . some other minority, perhaps . . .

A film has been made about Patsy by Isaac Julien, who is doubly privileged by his membership of TWO minorities, being both black and homosexual.

Off-topic but i think this is Griffin at his best:

Punchy, not trying to be friends with them, politely aggressive, making his points clearly and concisely. Very good. If they’ve got a media training team that clip would be a good example to use imo.

@Wandrin:

I totally agree. Well worth watching. The man is growing on me a bit more.

The claw-hammer incident reminded me of the boasting of the vile Sassoon:

http://adrianasassoon.wordpress.com/category/history/page/2/

“We’re not here to kill,” a former The 43 Group veteran recalls, being told on that occasion: “We’re here to maim.

” (The story is admiringly told by scumbag historian, rent-boy to the Establishment, Andrew Roberts)

- but then Cameron also referred, Yiddish-style, to NG as “that piece of filth” so it looks as if he, Sassoon, Roberts and the hammer-boys are singing from the same hymn sheet.

Not just any old piece of filth- a ghastly piece of filth.

I also thought NG was excellent in that interview.

Dear Fellow Patriot,

A special event that happened recently has changed my outlook on our struggle and the situation facing our sacred country. That event was the peaceful, sensible, mature debate with the Christian Party leader George Hargreaves and a large number of Christian Party members. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire debate which was noticeably absent of the usual hysterical fanaticism of the liberal-left.

It made me think long and hard about a new dimension of our struggle: our Christian religion, culture and traditions. In the past too much emphasis has been placed on the ethnic aspect of our present national dilemma, whilst the longest running feature of our identity has been overlooked: the fact that our country has been held together and guided for millennia by our common, ancient religion: Christianity.

And before you misunderstand me, I do not mean the gut-wrenching politically correct quasi-Marxist nonsense spewing forth from the treacherous leaders of the modern Anglican Church. I mean the traditional, upright, decent and honest Christianity that defended Europe from Islamic conquest, the Christianity of the Crusades and the Christianity of our forefathers.

There is nothing in traditional Christianity about world government, abolishing the nations, enslaving the world to finance capitalism and big business, eradicating traditional unique cultures and national identities, the promotion of sexual perversion, the glorification of treason, letting criminals run rampant and political correctness.

No, the Christianity of our forefathers was about honesty, family, patriotism, sacrifice, loyalty, king and country. For over 1,000 years Christianity held our people together and guided us through the centuries. If Christianity had not existed Europe would have been conquered by Islam centuries ago.

I made the irrefutable point during the debate with the Christian Party that the British National Party is the only political organisation in Britain that wants to keep this country fundamentally Christian, with Christian values, traditions and culture. Every other political party would happily allow Islam to engulf our Christian homeland.

After the General Election, all BNP leaflets will carry a Christian Cross to demonstrate our commitment to maintaining and preserving our Christian heritage as a nation. Politically correct scoundrels like Rowen Williams will cry foul but we have nothing to be ashamed of as we are the defenders of Britain’s Christian heritage, just like our Crusader ancestors in the Middle Ages.

So this weekend enjoy the Christian festival of Easter with pride and remember the War Heroes that fell in the many wars to defend our homeland. Be proud of your British, Christian identity and reject the false guilt and self-loathing of the liberal-left political class.

The darkest hour is just before the dawn, but be of good cheer for Christ Our Lord is risen!

Yours sincerely,

Nick Griffin

A positive message apart from this line:

NG—In the past too much emphasis has been placed on the ethnic aspect of our present national dilemma

In other words, let’s continue to focus harder on being anti-Islam and welcome the Christian Africans and afro-Caribbeans.

All the more reason to make sure there’s a self-consciously second stage organisation waiting in the wings to carry on where the BNP leaves off if it eventually runs out of steam before the final goal.

I’d like to add that the 14.8 percent ratio for unmarried teenage births in 1960 is for all teenagers, all races included. If you just look at white teenagers the level of competent family formation among the teenage set is even more amazing. Only 7.2 percent of births to white teenagers were out-of-wedlock in 1960. It wasn’t until 1968 that that ratio reached 15 percent. It wasn’t until 1976 that that ratio reached 25 percent. The most recent data, for 2006, has this ratio at 79.8 percent. If we assume the rate of out-of-wedlock births among white teenagers is growing at 7.8 percent a year which has been the norm among all teenagers then right now for the year 2010 it can be estimated that the current out-of-wedlock birth ratio among white teenagers is 84.2 percent.

So, in a mere 50 years time, in the space of two generations, the white out-of-wedlock birth ratio for teenagers has gone from a definite 7.2 percent in 1960 to a likely estimated 84.2 percent in 2010. Don’t let anyone tell you it is “natural” for a teenage girl to be unmarried when she gives birth, don’t let anyone tell you it is a simple matter of her immaturity level, that she is not old enough to be married yet. The reason why teenagers give birth while being unmarried today the great majority of the time is a simple matter of the destruction of the family brought on by the feminist revolution, nothing more.

White mans kill other white mans, and also non white mans. Non white mans kill white mans, and also other non white mans. Non white mans rape white womens and non white womens, and white mans rape white womens and non white womens as well. Mans will continue to do this to other mans until end of manskind. No use in caring which mans are white mans and which are non white mans.

Chaos rules mans, and mans will never have any balance on earth. When non white mans are dead, white mans will kill other white mans, until half those white mans are dead. And then half those white mans will fight other white mans until half of them are also dead. All mans need to realize the randomness of life, and the triviality of their own existence. But mans ego mad mind prevents this. Mans always find a cause to fight for, and nobody ever remembers what ideals those mans fought for, because in the end it’s always just some other cause nobody will care about a few centuries later.

War is old powerful mans talking and young brainwashed mans dying, nothing more and nothing less. No mans have ever preserved culture and followed through with it with any success at all, because all mans are ignorant to the fact that no society in human existence last for long at all. Mans could never have a world order that lasted for long, because eventually it would be challenged and destroyed, only to be replaced by a different order led by a different conqueror with yet another foolish and undeniably trivial cause.

Universe is chaos. Universe NEEDS chaos. Cannot function without it. Humans part of universe, human race obey law of chaos just as every windswept flower petal or extinction of a species does. Universe does not care about white mans, white mans will die. Non white mans will die. White mans, like any other mans, only superior in their own mind. Will be interesting to see if any of white mans plans to preserve other white mans come to fruition.

I believed the whiteman was like all other people until coming to the realization of my senses that the white people always has been out to destroy the African descent people worldwide, especially tose whoe attempt to hang on to their African heritage or what little heritage they have like not straigthening the hair, the darker race people has always been treated and noted to be inferior especially to the white man, this is a tactic of the enemy of God tis is a plan to destroy and conquer all life did start in Africa there is an old saying of those who shall be firest shall be last the dark skinned people were first the the white man is doing everything to make them last. AIDS was developed iin the undergroud laboratory of African to eliminate the African race, crack cocaine was designed to eliminate the African-American race. Trust this is a willingness of pure unadlutrated “GENOCIDE” to all African descendent people especially the African Americans
