Ian Jobling’s New Site, White America
Ian Jobling, who broke from AMREN because of their continued relationship with white supremacist allies, has relaunched his site, called White America.
Jobling remains the consummate professor in so many ways, a man who delights in grappling with the challenges raised by his readers (provided they are not trolls), and while I will probably often continue to disagree with him on many topics, I consider him an important voice of intellectual resistance against racial discrimination of whites. To be clear, affirmative action and an overriding emphasis on the importance of “diversity” is often translated into legislated racial discrimination, as are Hate Crimes. When a group is discriminated against, that group needs articulate, brave voices willing to challenge the status quo, and such voices are never popular. Not at first, and not until they are willing to define their group, and demand their grievances be acknowledged and addressed. The reality is, true “equal opportunists,” if you will, who seek to repeal legislated discrimination against anyone–will not get what we want until white Christians find the audacity to demand fairness for white Christians. For it is whites who are today discriminated against, and suffer from institutionalized racism.
Jobling is such a voice, and finding his footing and positioning while having been concurrently attacked by those to his Left and Right has not always been a pleasant or comfortable task. I do not envy his position.
But it will take men like Jobling to stand up and rally their constituency, thus paving the way for others to move in and echo their reasonable and equitable demands.
