The Only Way to Stop Racism Is ‘to Eliminate Whiteness All Together’

 People walking on New York City street
The fact that some people think this way is frightening enough. That the Lancet, which once represented serious medical journalism, would decide to publish it points to a devastating deterioration of the institutional academy as reasoned discourse gives way to incoherent ranting.

The once prestigious Lancet medical journal has published a bizarre book review asserting that “white Americans continue to mobilise to maintain or extend the exclusive advantages whiteness offers those who can become white.”

The Lancet selected Rhea W. Boyd, a Minority Health Policy Fellow at Harvard’s School of Public Health, to review a 2019 book called Dying of Whiteness by Jonathan Metzl, whose thesis is that “right-wing backlash policies have mortal consequences — even for the white voters they promise to help.”

THE 2020 VIRGINIA SHOWDOWN

Canada Tried Registering Long Guns -- And Gave Up

Rolling into 2020, all eyes are on Virginia following Governor Ralph Northam’s declared intention to pass onerous new gun control laws that could mandate the forced confiscation of common semi-automatic firearms which have been legal for Virginians to own for more than a century, ever since their invention. The first date in the coming showdown to be aware of is Monday, January 20th, when the Virginia Citizens Defense League, a pro-Second Amendment group, is organizing a “Lobby Day” rally to be held at the state capitol to oppose these new gun control laws. It’s estimated that thousands of Virginians will attend the VCDL rally, many arriving in buses from all over the commonwealth.

In response to Northam’s plans, 90% of Virginia’s counties and many of its independent cities have declared themselves to be “second amendment sanctuaries.” After receiving vociferous pushback, Northam has recently stepped away from promising the outright confiscation of currently owned semi-auto weapons, and he is instead now demanding that gun owners register “grandfathered” weapons with the state government. Based on recent experiences in New York, Connecticut and other states that mandated registration, it’s assumed that very few Virginians will comply, instantly turning hundreds of thousands of otherwise law-abiding citizens into paper felons.

President Trump Roasts Christopher Wray for Letting 'Dirty Cops' Skate Despite Committing Federal Felonies in the Carter Page FISA Affair

As my colleague, Nick Arama, posted just a short while ago, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court’s internal investigation into the facts and circumstances of the gross abuse of the FISA by the FBI as uncovered by the Department of Justice IG, Michael Horowitz, and the FBI’s response turned out to be a sham and a whitewash. The FISC engaged the services of a highly partisan, former Obama administration official who has been publicly critical of the idea that anything wrong happened in the process of issuing FISA warrants on Carter Page as well of any attempts to investigate it.

And, guess what? He found there was no intentional wrongdoing and was highly critical of anyone who wanted to investigate it. It reads like a smug, little self-congratulatory report that ignored the damage done to the lives of innocent people, downplayed the corrupt nature of using FISA to spy on a presidential campaign and transition team, completely avoiding addressing the violence done to our nation’s political life, and essentially said, “deal with, you proles, because we can do whatever the f*** we like.”

If your home isn’t carbon neutral, Elizabeth Warren might not let you build it. And if that means no new homes get built, she’s OK with that.

In an appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” on Wednesday, the Massachusetts senator and fading presidential candidate talked about her Thunberg-lite plan to help end climate change. (Climate crisis? Catastrophe? What are we going with these days?)

During her appearance, Warren was asked what she’d do to “change the tide of U.S. policy on the issue of climate change” and acted as if she’d been thrown the softball of all softballs.
