In The Eternal Obsession, Steve Sailer quotes Sarah Kaufman’s WaPo article, Ballet series has lots of talent, little diversity:
The companies are also overwhelmingly white and dotted with Europeans — as they have always been. Diversity in ballet remains a serious problem for the small companies as well as the large, on the coasts as well as in the heartland. In the 21st century, we can put a black man in the White House, but as last week’s survey shows, we can’t put a black ballerina in the Opera House. Clearly, not enough work is being done to foster African American dancers. But with public money in their coffers, ballet companies — and the local, state and federal funders — need to make equal opportunity in the dancer ranks a priority.
Sailer then witlessly tries to dismiss this as friendly fire:
I’m always struck by how white people are constantly admonishing each other
Sarah Kaufman thinks too many “white” people in ballet is a “serious problem”, but she didn’t have anything to say about that in Israel Ballet at Silver Spring Performing Arts Center. An all-jew troupe? That’s just splendid. In fact, in Paul Taylor’s Marvelous Melting Pot Kaufman gives the distinct impression she can’t get enough of jewish “diversity”. In To strengthen Jewish identity in America through the arts and humanities Richard Siegel, “the Executive Director of the National Foundation for Jewish Culture, an organization dedicated to enhancing Jewish identity in America through the arts and humanities”, cites Kaufman’s article in defense of Taylor’s production. Defense from what? Well, it seems some jews think Taylor’s production wasn’t jewish enough.
Kaufman’s snide attack on “whites” in ballet echoes Harold Meyerson, who in Economy? What Economy? wrote about the “huge problem” of “whiteness” in politics, likewise using blackness as a proxy:
In a year when the Democrats have an African American presidential nominee, the Republicans now more than ever are the white folks’ party, the party that delays the advent of our multicultural future, the party of the American past. Republican conventions have long been bastions of de facto Caucasian exclusivity, but coming right after the diversity of Denver, this year’s GOP convention is almost shockingly — un-Americanly — white. Long term, this whiteness is a huge problem.
Meyerson is #48 in The (shockingly jewish) Atlantic 50.
I’m struck, like many of Sailer’s commenters, by a pattern of jews attacking “whites”. That they are funded and broadcast by mainstream sources only underscores the seriousness of the problem. Contra Sailer it appears Kaufman and Meyerson don’t consider jews “white”, otherwise we could find them criticizing the more lopsided voting of jews, the bipartisan power of the Israel lobby, jewish over-representation on SCOTUS, in law generally, in finance, in media, or in pushing an anti-White agenda. It seems to me that anti-White jews behave as they do precisely because they consider their “jewishness” distinct from Whiteness.
I’m also struck by Sailer, a proponent of “human biodiversity”, lamely describing this situation as “white people constantly admonishing each other”. Is political correctness making him stupid, or is it the jewish genes he suspects he carries? Either way he can consider himself admonished.
Kaufman, meanwhile, has just been lauded by her anti-White/pro-jew peers. The Pulitzer Prizes | Citation:
Awarded to Sarah Kaufman of The Washington Post for her refreshingly imaginative approach to dance criticism, illuminating a range of issues and topics with provocative comments and original insights.
Contrast this with Helen Thomas, who was excoriated and ultimately lost her job for making a provocative comment about jews.
They seem to be going into overdrive. Probably getting ready for a war in the middle east.
Zulu dancing series has lots of talent, little diversity:
The mobs are also overwhelmingly black and dotted with Zulus — as they have always been. Diversity in Zulu dancing remains a serious problem for the small mobs as well as the large, on the coasts as well as in the heartland. In the 21st century, we can put the white man in the back of the queue, but as last week’s survey shows, we can’t put a white Zulu dancer in the township. Clearly, not enough work is being done to foster European dancers. But with public money in their coffers, African NGOs — and the local, state and federal funders — need to make equal opportunity in the dancer ranks a priority.
* * *
Does Sarah Kaufman think too many “black” people in Zulu dancing is a “serious problem”?
Let’s suppose she did.
Would she pen anything like the above?
Umm… no.
Why?
Because the idea of whites wanting to join the international Zulu-dancing circuit sounds ridiculous, absurd (unless your name was Johnny Clegg).
Kaufman knows this, Jews know what they can and can’t get away with, and Kaufman knows she passes the Bleach Test – she “looks white”.
Bob’s Mantra
“Everybody says there is this RACE problem. Everybody says this RACE problem will be solved when the third world pours into EVERY white country and ONLY into white countries.”
“The Netherlands and Belgium are more crowded than Japan or Taiwan, but nobody says Japan or Taiwan will solve this RACE problem by bringing in millions of third worlders and quote assimilating unquote with them.”
“Everybody says the final solution to this RACE problem is for EVERY white country and ONLY white countries to “assimilate,” i.e., intermarry, with all those non-whites.”
“What if I said there was this RACE problem and this RACE problem would be solved only if hundreds of millions of non-blacks were brought into EVERY black country and ONLY into black countries?”
“How long would it take anyone to realize I’m not talking about a RACE problem. I am talking about the final solution to the BLACK problem?”
“And how long would it take any sane black man to notice this and what kind of psycho black man wouldn’t object to this?”
“But if I tell that obvious truth about the ongoing program of genocide against my race, the white race, Liberals and respectable conservatives agree that I am a naziwhowantstokillsixmillionjews.”
“They say they are anti-racist. What they are is anti-white.”
“Anti-racist is a code word for anti-white.”
“I’m struck, like many of Sailer’s commenters, by a pattern of jews attacking “whites”.”
The pattern you see is real.

Please give Sailer a break. He sails as close to the wind as you can get and still write in the public space (vdare.com). If Sailor were any more strident, his columns would be elimintated fra public view in a matter of weeks. This is a patient battle a matter of turning the tables on this vicious group of anti-whites, who have us by the nuggets. It will take time and our side needs a selection of writers touching a variety of topics, not kamakazi types who burn up in a jiffy. But in the meantime, please keep up your own good work!!
I think this is consistent with Kevin MacDonald’s view that aggressiveness (of an intellectual and social kind, not club-swinging brutishness) is part of a typical Jewish suite of traits, along with high verbal intelligence, intensity and ethnocentrism. It’s not consistent with the alternative view that the driver of Jewish cultural moves against non-Jews is paranoid fear.
Jews aren’t likely to attack White ballet through a mortal fear of being squeezed out of ballet companies. Even to a paranoid imagination, White kids dancing in the ballet aren’t signs of a march to a new Holocaust.
Jews are attacking culturally because given their aggressiveness they are inclined to express their dislike of Whites through attacking rather than by avoidance.

Jews are attacking culturally because given their aggressiveness they are inclined to express their dislike of Whites through attacking rather than by avoidance.
Good point. The usual excuse, that their aggressive behavior is in some way a reaction to, and thus really the fault of “the anti-semites”, doesn’t fly for ballet. The problem is plainly that Kaufman just doesn’t like White people.
I like Marwinsing’s point too. The moral imperative to insert Africans into European culture salves jewish needs, not African or European needs. As Heinlein (who coined TANSTAAFL) once wrote, “Never try to teach a pig to sing. It wastes your time and it annoys the pig.” There’s an element of Let’s You And Him Fight to this jewish race-baiting. It’s calculated to produce strife, not justice.
“Jews are attacking culturally”
jews aren’t doing anything as jews.
jewish racists, masquerading as white anti-racists, are calmly attacking white people.
Yes, that’s how it works. What makes attacks like this so insidious is that the jewish identity of the moralizers is not blatant. If you call attention to that identity then blame is directed at you for having some kind of moral or mental failure. “We’re “white” just like you horrible racists, until you criticize us, then we’re a special protected class, you paranoid “white” jew-haters!”
And of course the ADL, AIPAC, AJC, HIAS, and hundreds of other well-funded jewish organizations do act as jews pursuing the interests of jews, often in direct conflict with our interests. In this case the special status is claimed from the get-go. “We’re Jews, and make sure you spell that with a capital J, you disgusting “white” Jew-haters!”
The racist-hate mentality is projected – like the fraudster who accuses everyone of wanting to rip him off.
“In the 21st century, we can put a black man in the White House, but as last week’s survey shows, we can’t put a black ballerina in the Opera House”
Who might be that “we”, I wonder.
‘aggressiveness (of an intellectual and social kind, not club-swinging brutishness) is part of a typical Jewish suite of traits, along with high verbal intelligence, intensity and ethnocentrism. ‘
I hope a geneticist comes along to tell the world just how much of Jewish anti-social behavior is genetically determined. It is possible to screen for genes.
In 1969, “we” put a bunch of White men on the moon, a dead ball of dust some quarter million miles of vacuum away. And “we” did it to plant a few flags and play some golf.
In the 21st century, “we” can put a halfrican in the White House, and “we” can put 30,000+ troops halfway around the world at a million dollars a pop, but “we” can’t put a cork in a pipe under one mile of water, “we” can’t prosecute anyone for multi-trillion dollar fraud, “we” can’t put a fence up on 1969 miles of border with Mexico, and “we” can’t enforce our immigration laws (but “we” can boycott and sue Arizona, oh yes “we” can!).
The Religious Origins of Globalism: An Interview with Hervé Ryssen, Part 3 | The Occidental Quarterly:
It is not enough for these [jewish] intellectuals to talk nonsense, to lull us with “human rights,” to bind us with repressive laws, and to inject us with alien cultural poisons. They also have to pour into our ears their contempt for our old cultures. But this contempt does not seem to fully satisfy their thirst for revenge. They must also insult us and spit in our faces: “ignoramuses, xenophobes, paranoiacs, morons, lunatics, etc.” That is what we are. In La Vengeance des Nations (1990), Alain Minc, who explains to us the benefits of immigration, ensures us that it is “ignorance which feeds xenophobia” (p. 154), that it is thus necessary “to fight against the crazy xenophobes, and be done with this “French paranoia” (pp. 208). Toward this end, Alain Minc proposes systematically to favor immigrants over the native French, on the American model. As media sensation Michael Moore proclaims in his 2002 book Stupid White Men, in the United States it is no longer really necessary to treat stupid white men with kid gloves, since they do not understand anything that is happening to them.
And I will not recount the innumerable films in which the cosmopolitan scriptwriters take their revenge against Christian civilization and the white man in general. It seems obvious to me, regarding all this logorrhea, that these people hate us. It could not be any more obvious if they wore flashing neon signs on their heads.
Excellent interview with the French Herve Ryssen, thanks for the link.
Ryssen seems to have a theory that the Jews are not right in their heads, and that incest often runs in their families (indeed, Freud had a theory that people want to kill their fathers and sleep with their mothers). I wonder if Ryssen really thinks incest is widespread in Jewish families and has important psychological repercussions, or if he’s only trying to ridicule them. Anyway, he is courageous to write about them.
The Religious Origins of Globalism: An Interview with Hervé Ryssen, Part 4 | The Occidental Quarterly:
This vengeful hatred, nursed for twenty centuries, was also expressed by the philosopher Jacob Talmon, who wrote in 1965: “The Jews have very old blood feuds to settle with the Christian West” (J.-L. Talmon, Destin d’Israël, [Paris: Calmann-Lévy 1965, 1967], p. 18). Pierre Paraf, the former President of the LICA (League against Anti-Semitism), writes, in the voice of a character of his novel republished in 2000: “So many of our brothers marked by circumcision groan under the whip of the Christians. Glory to God! Jerusalem will gather them together one day; they will have their revenge!” (Quand Israël aima [Paris: Les belles letters, 1929, 2000, p. 19). These people are tenacious in their resentment.
The Religious Origins of Globalism: An Interview with Hervé Ryssen, Part 5 | The Occidental Quarterly:
The explanation of anti-Semitism as mental derangement is very frequently found in the writings of Jewish intellectuals. Le livre de Raphaël Draï, Identité juive, identité humaine, publié en 1995, reprend cette idée : The 1995 book of Raphaël Draï, Identité juive, identité humaine [Jewish Identity, Human Identity], takes up this idea: “The anti-Semite attributes to the Jew the intentions that he himself nourishes. . . . The psychopathological dimension of such a construction cannot be ignored. . . . The presented Jews are really projected Jews; the “Judaized” image belongs to the delusions of anti-Semites” (Raphaël Draï, Identité juive, identité humaine [Paris: Armand Colin, 1995], pp. 390-92).
Projecting projection. Creepy.
Perhaps “Blacks” would much rather enjoy their own heritage and dance traditional african dances in traditional african dance troupes. What a racist she is to want to force proud blacks to give up their heritage and dance in european ballets. She should take some diversity training because she obviously hates black culture.
Tanstaafl,
Perhaps Lawrence Auster isn’t quite as much of an inquisitorial anti-anti-Semite as you and AltRight sometimes potray him to be?
In the interest of pan-rightwing harmony, allow me to quote a June 30 post by LA:
“Everything about Kagan screams that she is a typical knee-jerk, New York, Russian-Jewish leftist, with everything that implies. It is as though Obama, notwithstanding his messiah-like abilities, couldn’t raise Emma Goldman from the grave, so he picked Elena Kagan instead. Yes, of course, Goldman was a Communist revolutionary, while Kagan is merely a Democrat. But Kagan is what the Communists became as they adjusted their message to America. She doesn’t push outright for the overthrow of bourgeois society, she pushes for the absolute right of abortion – another way of acheiving the same goal. She doesn’t advocate dictatorship of the proleteriat, she advocates replacement of the U.S. Constitution by international law – either way, the American people stop governing themselves and come under the power of unaccountable leftist rulers.”
“Larry Auster’s lies”:
Here is my motivation: to expose the anti-Israelism and anti-Semitism that currently are harbored at the heart of the paleocon and immigration restrictionist movements, and to get conservatives and immigration restrictions to reject those evils, so that the cause of saving America and the West is not tainted and discredited by them and might actually have a chance of success.
These are his priorities. This is why Auster doesn’t focus more attention and denunciations on misbehaving jews rather than trying to taint and discredit conservatives and immigration restrictionists for doing so.
The connections between Richard Hoste and Richard Spencer, and between Richard Hoste and Peter Brimelow:
Some of the members of the complex are merely anti-neocon. Some are anti-Israel. Some are outright anti-Semitic. What do these three views have in common? Opposition to people and entities that are identifiably Jewish. While not all members of the complex are anti-Semitic, opposition to Jews, and thus, ultimately, anti-Semitism, is the cement that holds the various parts of the complex together, and is even its ruling principle. This is shown by group’s tacit hierarchical order, in which the members of the complex who are anti-Semitic are never criticized by other members for their anti-Semitism, while the members of the complex who are not anti-Semitic tacitly accept the anti-Semitism of their colleagues and don’t complain about it, or at least they don’t seriously do so. In many cases the non-anti-Semites defend their anti-Semitic confreres from the charge of being anti-Semitic. It would appear then that a minimal requirement for membership in the complex is, in descending order of activism, at least one of the following: (a) active defense of anti-Semitic members from the charge of anti-Semitism; (b) deference to anti-Semitic members and their anti-Semitism; or (c) silent non-criticism of anti-Semitic members and their anti-Semitism. While active support for, or at least silent non-criticism of, anti-Semitic members is a required condition of membership in the complex, criticism of members’ anti-Semitism is prohibited, and marks an individual as a non-member of the complex.
Anti-Semitism is thus the organizing idea of the Paleocon anti-Semitic Complex, affecting and controlling even those members who are not themselves anti-Semitic.
The man is obsessed with defending jewish and Israeli interests. To him “America and the West” is a nice place where jews thrive, though maintaining it requires ever more frequent flaying of an ever shrinking population of feckless White servants.
…and here’s another “problem” according to some. That of a Canadian city being “too white”.
http://elliotlakenews.wordpress.com/2010/07/01/is-burlington-too-white/
Yes, I found it interesting that Auster never even mentioned the entire organized Jewish community coming out against Arizona, yet ever chance he gets attacking marginal “anti-Semites” with no power.
It is a fact that Auster only cares about Jewish interests such that he would not even bring up the vicious attack by organized Jews against the mild Arizona law.
Auster epitomizes jewish expectations in White/jewish relations: critique for thee, but not for me.
Can we jail Jews who change their names, pretend they’re white, and then rape us?
