The United Nations has decided that Britain has not grovelled enough. After years of toppled statues, boarded-up war memorials and official lectures about “colonialism,” a UN human-rights committee now wants the country that ended the Atlantic slave trade to fill its public squares with statues of “people of African descent,” The globalist body also suggests Britain should rewrite what children are taught, and treat historic slavery as a live brief for migration policy and hate-speech enforcement. This comes in the form of formal “reparatory justice” guidance from the UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, published six months after...

President Donald Trump on Friday ordered his administration to install signs outside the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History directing visitors to what the White House describes as "accurate" information about the nation's past. The executive order instructs the National Park Service, which maintains the sidewalks outside the museum, to place signs informing visitors about a White House report released July 4 that criticized the Smithsonian's portrayal of American history.

The move follows a report from Trump's Domestic Policy Council that...

Trump administration exposes institution's progressive biasThe nation’s largest group of scholars says a taxpayer-funded family museum must include an exhibit that features a sadomasochistic crotch harness, pages from a 6-year-old girl’s diary that depict her yearning to grow a penis, video clips of drag queens and a magazine promoting female masturbation.The Organization of American Historians also supports exhibits that describe “Mickey Mouse as a vestige of long-standing traditions of blackface minstrelsy,” the ukulele as “a product of U.S. imperialism” and Wild West shows as turning the “subjugation of Indigenous people into theater.”Those are just a few of the displays...

Like the KGB, the woke know that everyone has a breaking point. They are trained to push their victims until they snap. In the Soviet Union, we learned to silently endure official meetings, eyes glued to the floor, heavy sighs suppressed, hoping for some fresh air and a smoke when it was all over. The state seemed indestructible. But when it became possible to speak the truth again in the mid-’80s, the whole rotten apparatus quickly collapsed. The woke have no winning arguments: contra their assertions, white skin does not confer guilt, America was founded in 1776, and there are...

Amid the scenes circulating on social media this week of protesters and rioters and burned out storefronts and police barricades, two of them stand out as harbingers of what all of this means for the future of mainstream American society.The first was a video clip of a small group of white people kneeling down before a group of black people. A white man at the head of the kneeling group was praying, his voice shaking with...
