Is There an Alternative to "Black" and "White?"

Black Bullshit Month: Leftist Lies in the War on Whites and the West

October 9, 2022 | by Tobias Langdon

The Biblical scholar John Allegro (1923–88) once argued that Jesus Christ was a magic mushroom. His theory was utter nonsense, of course. It's obvious that Jesus was in fact a horse. After all, he was born in a stable. His supposed Greek title, ὁ Υἱὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ, ho Huios tou Theou, "The Son of God," must be a corruption of ὁ Ἵππος τοῦ Θεοῦ, ho Hippos tou Theou, "The Horse of God."

Abandoning facts, embracing fantasy

Well, I can tell you're not convinced. But if you think "Jesus as horse" is a stupid theory, let me introduce you to the award-winning Black historian David Olusoga (born 1970) and his children's book Black and British: An Illustrated History (2021). The book has become part of what is officially but inaccurately known as Black History Month, which runs in October in Britain. I prefer the unofficial and accurate title of Black Bullshit Month. Olusoga's book is leftist propaganda plugging the lie that Blacks have long been an important and valuable part of British life. They haven't: before mass immigration began, they were a minor presence and unable to make the vibrant contributions in murder, rape and general criminality for which they are outstandingly successful throughout the modern West. But at least Olusoga's book bases some of its lies on genuine history. Blacks were definitely present in Britain under the Tudors and Stuarts, for example. They were very few in number, but they were there. However, at the beginning of the book, Olusoga abandons facts altogether and uses an argument even stupider than "Jesus must have been a horse because he was born in a stable."

Olusoga pretends that the Roman Emperor Septimius Severus (145–211 AD) and Roman governor Quintus Urbicus (fl. 140 AD) were Black because they were "born in Africa." This is the equivalent of arguing that a human is a horse because he was born next to a stable. Severus and Urbicus were from North Africa, which was not inhabited by Blacks but by proud and ancient peoples like the Berbers, who are actually closer genetically to White Europeans than to Black Africans. North Africa is separated from Black regions of Africa by the vast wastes of the Sahara Desert. In other words, Olusoga is guilty of an act of blatant racial, cultural and geographic "erasure." No leftist would condemn him for it, however, because he is working in two sacred causes: first, power for the elites of leftism; second, punishment for the enemies of leftism. Olusoga blatantly erases Berbers again when he pretends that the "Aurelian Moors" stationed "on Hadrian's Wall in the Third Century" were Black because they came from North Africa. And that the "Ivory Bangle Lady" found buried in York was Black because she too came from North Africa.

The Aurelian Moors and Ivory Bangle Lady were no more Black than the great soccer-player Zinedine Zidane (born 1972), whose parents are Algerian Berbers from "North Africa." To give Olusoga his due, he doesn't explicitly lie in his text and say that "African means Black." The illustrators of the book have no such scruples and portray the Aurelian Moors and the Ivory Bangle Lady as unmistakably Black. Olusoga made no objection to that. But his "erasure" of Berbers is only the first of his transgressions against leftist piety. He also implicitly supports the brutalities of imperialism and colonialism. After all, North Africans — Olusoga's pretended "Blacks" — were in Britain only because Romans had brutally invaded and colonized most of the island. He notes briefly that, in 60 AD, "Boudicca leads a rebellion against the Romans." But that’s all he says: he doesn't say that Boudicca was driven to rebellion by Roman greed, her own flogging by Roman soldiers, and the rape of her daughters.

Black narcissism and the mirror of history

It wasn't a happy precedent, was it? Ethnic enrichment was imposed on native Britons by a brutal empire. No wonder Olusoga doesn't give further details of Boudicca's "rebellion." And even he can't pretend that Blacks were in Britain after the fall of that brutal Roman Empire. In fact, they first began to enrich Britain only a few centuries ago. Leftist historians are now devoting ridiculous amounts of time and attention to the tiny numbers of Blacks present here before mass immigration. Except that the time and attention aren't ridiculous: they're part of the leftist war on Whites and on the West. The possibly Jewish historian Miranda Kaufmann has written a "critically acclaimed" book called Black Tudors: The Untold Story (2017), which reveals that Blacks in Tudor times were remarkable for only one thing: that they were Black in an overwhelmingly White country.
