Argentina: Squatters, neighbors in new clashes
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina - A rock and bottle fight broke out Friday between squatters illegally occupying a private Soccer field and neighbors who want them gone. A Police Officer and a Journalist caught in the crossfire were injured. People hurled objects at each other in Villa Lugano, a southwestern suburb of Buenos Aires, until police created a cordon between the two groups and ended the violence. The squatters occupied the field five days ago and are demanding that the government provid...

The Mission
While we can continue to abhor the system of human bondage that flourished in the Old South, there is much we can learn from a more dispassionate examination of the arguments used to defend it. We have sought to distance the slaveholders and their creed, to define them as very unlike ourselves. Yet their processes of rationalization and self-justification were not so very different from our own, or from those of any civilization of human actors. The persistence of modern Racism is but one forcef...

Fa-Ra-Ra-Ra-Ra-Ra-Ra-Ra-Ra, Ctd
A reader writes: I thought I should share with you a screen capture of your posts. The first post is about dealing with "Racist relatives over the Holidays" followed by "Fa Ra Ra Ra." Now I understand the latter post references the "classic" movie moment in The Christmas Story, but seeing the two posts back to back struck me. As a biracial Asian-American male that "classic" moment was my first realization of the long heard phrase "laughing AT you not WITH you." Growing up in suburban Virginia,...

How Do You Deal With Racist Relatives Over The Holidays?
A Feministe reader sparks a helpful discussion in the comments section. Rita's advice: I deal with this as well and I disagree with the “just don’t go” advice. I don’t get to see my family that often and they are VERY important to me, bigoted views or no. The older generation in particular just never learned any better (which I know is not an excuse for hatred, but I’m still not going to hate them back.) I want to see my family and when they are not being Racist/sexist/ge

You Went Full Ayers, ManNever Go Full Ayers
When Bill Clinton did his victory lap last week around this time, how much do you think the brutal left-on-left race-obsessed primary season of 2008 was still fresh on his mind? I wonder if he heard this interview with Bill Ayers from the start of the month, in which he claims that, as the Blaze notes, “White Supremacist [Hillary] Clinton Created Shadowy Characters of Rev. Wright & Others” to exoticize Obama. Fortunately, that can’t ever happen again, since, “Callin...

Anti-Anti-Racism.
Political correctness and people who call things Racist are the greatest threats to free Speech, says Andrew Breitbart in this video from Reason (zoom ahead to 1:35): This is a nearly pure expression of conservative anti-anti-racism, or the idea that accusations of Racism (against White People) are far more harmful than actual incidents of Bigotry against Minorities (with the collorary that Minorities are guilty of tremendous Racism against White People). Smearing Shirley Sherrod is perfectly ok...

Quote of the Day
Norse mythology gets multi-cultural remake in upcoming movie titled "Thor," Marvel Studios. It's not enough that Marvel attacks Conservatives values, now mythological Gods must be re-invented with black skin. It seems that Marvel Studios believes that White People should have nothing that is unique to themselves. An upcoming movie, based on the comic book Thor, will give the Aesir an insulting multi-cultural make-over. One of the Gods will be played by Hip Hop DJ Elba.—The "radical and rac...

Spain: Muslims sue teacher for speaking about ham in class
Spanish ham (absolutely offensive to "Ham-o-phobic" Muslims...) According to the account of the facts, the teacher was explaining the different climates in a geography class and cited the village of Trevelez due to its cold and dry climate. According to the newspaper account, "as a story, the teacher told his Students that such a climate was conducive to making hams (this refers to the procedure that it's necessary between the pig is killed and the ham is actually ready to be eaten). Then the ...

Pulling Up the Ladder
During a Google search for something else, I just now came across a nativist blog called stoptheinvasionoforegon. It is a particularly repellent specimen of the genre and contains a particularly revolting selection of Racist images. If you have the stomach for this kind of thing, Google it for yourselves. If the Internet had existed in the 1830s I imagine that the Cayuse and Klamath tribes would have spread the same sort of welcome mat for the wagon trains of land-hungry settlers just then arri...

Chicago Mayor Candidates: Only Black People Should Be Considered Minorities
It happened during a discussion of why African-American businesses got a 7 percent sliver of Chicago’s $1 billion spending pie through Aug. 31, down from 8 percent a year ago. “The word ‘minority’ from our standpoint should mean African-American. I don’t think women, Asians and Hispanics should be able to use that title,” he said. “That’s why our numbers cannot improve — because we use women, Asians and Hispanics who are not People of Color, ...

Proud of Mel, on the Occasion of Winona’s Denunciation
Aaron Worthing at Patterico’s Pontifications recently wrote a post about an interview in GQ with Winona Ryder — who is Jewish; who knew? — in which she offhandedly charged that, “like, fifteen years ago,” she was at a Hollywood party, where she met a drunken Mel Gibson… and that, when she mentioned her religion, he jokingly referred to Jews as “oven dodgers.” (Ryder also claims that Gibson “made a really horrible gay joke” to her gay fr...

The Wolves Who Cry Boy
The Reverends Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Jim Wallis, Jeremiah Wright and Father Michael Pfleger insist Racism is alive and well in America. And they are right. All they need do is look in their respective mirrors to see some of its most active proponents. Racism certainly still exists among some whites in the U.S. But anyone who thinks seriously -- and honestly -- about the issue also knows those people are a dying breed. They never will die out completely, of course. Humans, contrary to libera...

Spain: Muslim family denounces teacher for talking about ham in class
Here is my rough translation of a Spanish-language article about a manifestation of Islamic Supremacism so outrageous that it is hard not to wonder whether or not it is a parody. But it doesn't seem to be one. "Una familia musulmana denuncia a un docente por hablar de jamones en clase," from Diario de Jerez, December 18 (thanks to Eloy): A teacher at Menéndez Tolosa institute has been denounced by a Muslim family from La Línea because their son, a Student in the first year of High School, fe...

Provo, Utah (AP) — Firefighters are battling a blaze at the historic Provo Tabernacle in Utah. (Scroll down for video.) Fire Battalion Chief Gary Jolley tells the Daily Herald of Provo that crews have the fire, which broke out early Friday, contained but not controlled.

Texas Republicans Fight About Immigration: Are Latinos a Menace, or Natural Allies Against Muslim Immigrant Invasion
Immigration hasn’t traditionally been a sharply partisan issue. The GOP presidential nominees in 2000, 2004, and 2008 all ran on pro-immigration platforms, as did their Democratic opponents. Conversely, many members of Congress from both parties were hostile to immigration. You saw more pro-immigration sentiment among Democrats, but strong pro-immigration and pro-immigrant political cultures existed inside the GOP, and especially in its Texas and Florida branches both of which had been p...
