I came late to the issues characteristically discussed in The Occidental Quarterly. I had no interest in politics during my early adult years, a circumstance for which I am now grateful. Like most Americans, I assumed that “politics” meant electoral contests between hardly-distinguishable parties. In early adulthood I encountered The Gulag Archipelago and gained a...

I write because I believe my primary group — Whites of European heritage — is at extreme risk, and — for better or for worse — the most I have now to offer is my virtual pen. I am fortunate to follow a number of my betters who have written on the question of why we write. Now I can simply repeat that with which I agree. For instance, put me in the camp of...

I have been asked by Dr. Johnson to contribute to this series. It is ironic really because I have spent 30 years writing and mostly self-publishing, and I am barely heard of anywhere. A few days ago I was contacted by an Italian, a young doctor of philosophy, who asked why I am not well known in Italy despite what I suppose would seem to be quite a large output of articles, essays,...

The most interesting thing about the writers of TOQ isn’t why we write, but why we came to write from the perspective that we have. Wanting to express oneself in print isn’t that rare. High IQ people have their journals and books while even the less intelligent have MySpace. The more interesting question is how did we come to hold such unpopular beliefs? As a hereditarian, I...

Although the title of this series is “Why We Write,” a better title for my entry might be “Why I Write.” I once naively believed that everyone thought more or less as I did and shared my basic values. Today I wonder if anyone does. A threshold reason why I write is simply that the Good Lord granted me facility with the written word. Not with video or motion...

“One White Man’s Scream Out Across the Internet” I write because I can’t stand what’s happening to whites. It’s personal and it’s political. It’s as small as the chicken bones strewn in the gutter of the Grand Concourse in the Bronx, and it’s as big as the future of the United States and the rest of the West. It’s about...

I have been asked to contribute to the “Why We Write” series. I have both the fortune and the misfortune to follow three very good and comprehensive contributions which have left to me not much to add. However, I have some comments to make, first, by quoting my predecessors in this endeavor, and then by outlining several issues I see as important. Dr. Kevin...

“Qui dit ‘ni droite ni gauche’ dit de droite.” –Charles Peguy In an earlier piece with the same title, Kevin MacDonald said what most of us at The Occidental Quarterly must feel: that we, the country’s white majority, have been dispossessed, that we no longer belong to America, and that America no longer belongs to us. Given the nature of the...

1) Why do I spend so much time writing about race? 2) Why do I vigorously defend White Nationalism? 3) Why do I hold such politically incorrect racial views? I’ve been asked these questions many times over the years. The standard answer (I genuinely care about my race and ethny), while undoubtedly true, isn’t much in the way of an explanation. It only raises further...

Editor’s Note: This is a lightly-edited extract from a talk given at The Occidental Quarterly Editor’s conference on March 18, 2007 near Washington, D.C. One of the charges repeatedly leveled against me by the Southern Poverty Law center and others who would silence my research is that I write for The Occidental Quarterly and serve on its Editorial Board.[1] Thus I want to...
