Phil Eiger Newmann, Don’t Tread on Us, 2020. 971 words Translated by Greg Johnson The US presidential election is fast approaching. Personally, do you want Donald Trump to be re-elected? Would a second term of this president please you, if only to see the faces of his opponents, American and European? Alain de Benoist: I […]
1,408 words America was put on edge last week when the FBI announced it had foiled the terror plot of the century. Michigan militiamen planned to kidnap their state governor in a bid to start a new civil war. They would’ve gotten away with it too, if it wasn’t for the heroic confidential informant who […]

8,088 words O my brothers, I dedicate and direct you to a new nobility: you shall become procreators and cultivators and sowers of the future — verily, not to a nobility that you might buy like shopkeepers and with shopkeepers’ gold: for whatever has its price has little value. Not whence you come shall henceforth […]

3,300 words Jim CobbPrepper’s Financial GuideBerkeley: Ulysses Press, 2015 Disaster preparation is a difficult topic. There are some entry-level items, such as what outdoor survival supplies should go into a “bug-out bag” which might be needed in short notice for a long hike in very uncertain conditions. However, beyond the “101” level stuff, things get […]
1,236 words Editor’s note: Jim Goad has joined Counter-Currents as a twice-weekly original contributor. This is his first article. As someone who is both obsessed with race and filled with hatred, I am often accused of being filled with racial hatred. For reasons that have nothing to do with trying to absolve myself in the […]
Pierre-Jean Boquet, The Burning of Cap Français, 1791. 7,803 words The monumental significance of the fall of Saint-Domingue, the crown jewel of the French colonial empire, and its ensuant descent into the African savagery of Haiti cannot be overstated.

France Gall 2,278 words There once existed a time, alien to my young brain, in which people primarily discovered and listened to pop music on radio stations. These were entities subject to important forces, like censorship and record label interests, that gave rise to various standardizations and trade practices that persist to this day. During […]

1,718 words Editor’s Note: This essay is from Michael Polignano’s book Taking Our Own Side, available in hardcover, paperback, and e-book here. Multiculturalism is not an attempt to “enrich” white cultures by adding sundry non-white cultures. It is an attempt to replace white cultures with non-white cultures — or, more precisely, with fantasies, lies, and […]

5,462 words “Socialism” is intrinsic to the “Right.” When journalists and academics refer in one breath to “liberalism, neoliberalism, and the Right-wing,” that attests to their ignorance, not to the accuracy of any such bastardization. Even at its most basic level of understanding, it seems to have been forgotten that in Britain there were Tories […]
