How do you explain the fact that a major football rivalry for Tunisians seems to be with other North Africans, Moroccans, rather than with people more distantly related?Because Morocco is there.

A Letter from a Grandfather to his Genes, Part 4

Read Part 1 here.Read Part 2 here.Read Part 3 here.11. Doesn’t the success of multiculturalism show that having the same ancestry is not necessary for a harmonious society as long as people do speak a common language? It depends on how much “harmony” you would settle for. To achieve the harmony of an ethnically homogeneous nation, you would need more than just a common...

A Letter from a Grandfather to his Genes, Part 3

Read Part 1 here.Read Part 2 here.6. How do we reach reciprocity from “might-makes-right”?The same way it was done in the Wild West.

Don’t Eat the Strange Fruit

There has been some discussion on the Internet about the book Strange Fruit: Why Both Sides are Wrong in the Race Debate by South Asian intellectual Kenan Malik, a book in which the work of Frank Salter is sharply critiqued.

Racial Cuckoldry, Racial Mimicry

From The Occidental Observer, October 11, 2009I am sure most people are familiar with the typical definitions of ‘cuckoldry’ in which a woman is unfaithful to her unknowing male partner.
