  • Identitarian Movement
    Identitarian movement The identitarian movement (otherwise known as Identitarianism) is a European and North American[2][3][4][5] white nationalist[5][6][7] movement originating in France. The identitarians began as a youth movement deriving from the French Nouvelle Droite (New Right) Génération Identitaire and the anti-Zionist and National Bolshevik Unité Radicale. Although initially the youth wing of the anti- immigration and nativist Bloc Identitaire, it has taken on its own identity and is largely classified as a separate entity altogether.[8] The movement is a part of the counter-jihad movement,[9] with many in it believing in the white genocide conspiracy theory.[10][11] It also supports the concept of a "Europe of 100 flags".[12] The movement has also been described as being a part of the global alt-right.[13][14][15] Lambda, the symbol of the Identitarian movement; intended to commemorate the Battle of Thermopylae[1] Contents Geography In Europe In North America Links to violence and neo-Nazism References Further reading External links Geography In Europe The main Identitarian youth movement is Génération identitaire in France, a youth wing of the Bloc identitaire party. In Sweden, identitarianism has been promoted by a now inactive organisation Nordiska förbundet which initiated the online encyclopedia Metapedia.[16] It then mobilised a number of "independent activist groups" similar to their French counterparts, among them Reaktion Östergötland and Identitet Väst, who performed a number of political actions, marked by a certain

  • America and the Great Racial Divide Pg
    America and the Great Racial Divide Pg. 1 Merlin Miller: America and the Great Racial Divide The following essay was written by filmmaker Merlin Miller, the American Third Position Party’s 2012 presidential nominee. America’s demographics are being radically altered – setting the stage for serious civil strife with potential for state succession and national dissolution into small, ethnically distinct nation-states. This is not happening by accident, but by design. It is only one part of a comprehensive plan to destroy traditional nations and create an unnatural, enslaved world, where citizens answer to an all-powerful New World Order. The American “empire” is being sacrificed for this end. However, the American republic is not quite dead and those of us who took an oath to protect and defend her, must rise to the occasion. American nationalists must stand against growing tyrannies and remove the Globalist/Zionist agents of our destruction. To do so, we must understand their “divide and conquer” tactics. Divisiveness is not just racial, but also religious (Christians pitted against Muslims) and cultural (attacks on traditional family) and is socially engineered through media influence and government control. Largely unknown to the American public, our nation has come under the oppressive control of international bankers. Through financial manipulations and ruthless plotting, they control the mainstream media and political arena – and hence, our lives. Internationally, they have involved us in wars and occupations – which are destroying the blood of our youth, our reputation and our financial solvency. Domestically, they are engineering America’s collapse by dislocating American jobs, stealing citizen homes and possessions, and suppressing our inalienable rights and freedoms.

Nyborg is well- known for his work showing a sex difference in IQ favoring males, a paper which resulted in an investigation of his work and a reprimand from his university. (Nyborg describes the “witch hunt” he endured here (http://www.helmuthnyborg.dk/GlobalWitchHunt/GlobalWitchHunt.pdf) .) Nyborg’s latest paper charts past trends and projects IQ changes in Denmark as a result of two trends: relaxation of natural selection among the traditional Danes, and an influx of low-IQ immigrants. These two trends together amount to what he terms a “double relaxation of natural selection” (DRNS).

  • Directory of U.S. Political Parties the Two Major
    DIRECTORY OF U.S. POLITICAL PARTIES THE TWO MAJOR PARTIES: DEMOCRATIC PARTY (DNC) - The Democrats regained control of the US House and US Senate in the 2006 elections, and of the White House in the 2008 elections (plus widened their congressional advantage). An inability to cure the inherited stagnant national economy and voter discontent over health care and other successfully adopted Obama agenda items caused a significant erosion of support, costing the Democrats control of the House and several governorships in 2010. While prominent Democrats run the wide gamut from the near Euro-style democratic-socialist left (Barbara Lee, Raúl Grijalva and the Congressional Progressive Caucus) and traditional liberals (Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Debbie Wasserman Schultz) to the Dem center-right (Harry Reid, and the NDN) to the GOP-style conservative right (Blue Dog Coalition) to the pragmatic "centrist" moderate- to-liberal style (Mark Warner, Rahm Emanuel). The Democrats swept into office in '06 and '08 include a combination of some vocal progressives on the left, some centrists, and a some conservatives on the party's right. Much of the party's congressional losses in 2010 came at the expense of Blue Dog and centrist Democrats in swing districts. In 2012, President Obama was reelected and the Democrats held control of the US Senate and narrowed the GOP majority in the US House. Other official, affiliated national Democratic sites include: Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC), House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, and House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer. Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC), and US Senate Democratic Leadership. Democratic Governors Association (DGA).

  • White Nationalist Politics and the Fight for Mainstream Access, Civil Rights Era to Present Day
    Berkeley Center for Right-Wing Studies Working Paper Series The American Freedom Party: White Nationalist Politics and the Fight For Mainstream Access, Civil Rights Era to Present Day by Terra Steinkuehler Department of Sociology, University of California at Berkeley July 23, 2014 Terra Steinkuehler Department of Sociology University of California, Berkeley Abstract: Using a diachronic perspective, this paper explores American white nationalist political parties from the mid-twentieth century to present day and their attempts at securing national votes. The parties included are the National States Rights Party, The Populist Party, and the American Freedom Party. While maintaining the central focus on the contemporary American Freedom Party, the major differences in political strategy between the parties are analyzed. Through examination and comparison of the parties’ changes in self-presentation, the societal shift from old racism to new racism becomes evident. The analysis also uncovers a continual change in the understanding of race in American politics within the same time frame. The Berkeley Center for Right-Wing Studies is a research center housed at the Institute for the Study of Societal Issues (ISSI), an Organized Research Unit of the University of California at Berkeley. The views expressed in working papers are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent those of the CRWS or the Regents of the University of California.
