Kevin MacDonald Helps Launch New Political Party
On Monday, January 4, 2010, a new political party — American Third Position — was launched. Professor Kevin MacDonald, one of TOQ‘s leading writers, is the new party’s Director, and attorney William D. Johnson is the Chairman.
The party’s program seems crafted to appeal to and promote the interests of white Americans, but not too explicitly. We shall see if this formula, followed by the British National Party, will work in this country. I have the highest respect for Kevin MacDonald and William Johnson, so the party is in good hands.
Mainstream media coverage has been predictably scathing. See here (be sure to read the comments — and add a few of your own) and here.
The emergence of American Third Position is a hopeful sign, and we will follow the party closely on TOQ Online.

Wouldn’t it be great to have some TOQ writers as elected representatives!
It is not too explicit in its advocacy of white interests, but watching the video where William Johnson recites the 14 words albeit replacing ‘white children’ with ‘our children’ should settle any doubts as to how committed they are to white advocacy. I truly hope they will do well in the coming years.
The moniker “American Third Position” might catch on in California. LOL.
Congratulations and Best of Luck.
May I humbly contribute a Party slogan.
Why Be Friendly To A Hostile Elite?
Good news. This is a positive sign.
Readers might be interested in a similar oganization, this one named simply ‘Occident.’ Occident leans in the direction of Third Positionism and European New Right. It seems to be just a young man, Taylor Somers, with a Facebook page, but he displays an impressive grasp of the issues.

The OC Weekly is a local rag that is owned by The Village Voice. It’s known for its listings of medical marijuana dispensaries and “massage” sites, along with movie listings, not that anyone under 50 uses weekly rags to check movie times. Arrellano is an arrogant mestizo who writes a column called “Ask a Mexican.” He thinks he’s quite the funny pundit. If this story gets picked up by the OC Register or the LA Times, it will get more eyeballs. The comments show that there’s a large pool of people who sympathize with the ATP.
Except for the faintly critical reference to multiculturalism, there’s hardly anything in this so-called Third Position that the run of the mill liberal wouldn’t be able to accept.
In America’s two party system, such a vacuous third party won’t get to first base. What’s the purpose, most will ask.
Moreover, no self-respecting White Nationalist is going to waste his time or effort for a “party” that refuses even to specify what it means by ‘our people’.
In a week, I suspect, all trace of this empty gesture is likely to be forgotten.
From the A3P’s Mission Statement:
“The American Third Position exists to represent the political interests of White Americans.”
Apparently this is not good enough for some.
