End Multiculturalism
I happened across a fascinating piece called “The End of Multiculturalism”. The author is definitely no conservative but has not hesitation in defending traditional American culture. In fact he even asserts that it is better in many ways than other cultures. It’s very refreshing.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Multiculturalism is not harmless and its intentions are not benign. It is a Marxist derived ideology intended not to produce appreciation of other cultures but to tear down western culture.
Some key passages:
Samuel Huntington was on the mark when he wrote in his latest book “Who Are We? The Challenges to America’s National Identity”: “Would America be the America it is today if it had been settled not by British Protestants but by French, Spanish, or Portuguese Catholics? The answer is no. It would not be America; it would be Quebec, Mexico, or Brazil.”
In “The Americano Dream,” Mexican-American Lionel Sosa argues that the value system that has retarded progress in Latin America is an impediment to upward mobility of Latino immigrants.
And:
The costs of multiculturalism – in terms of disunity, the clash of classes, and declining trust – are likely to be huge in the long run. All cultures are not equal when it comes to promoting progress, and very few can match Anglo-Protestantism in this respect. We should be promoting acculturation to the national mainstream, not a mythical, utopian multiculturalism. And we should take care that the Anglo-Protestant virtues that have brought us so far do not fall into disrepair, let alone disrepute.
