Book Review: Albion’s Seed | Slate Star Codex

“Albion’s Seed by David Fischer is a history professor’s nine-hundred-page treatise on patterns of early immigration to the Eastern United States. It’s not light reading and not…”

The review is full of interesting facts I assume are pulled from ‘Albion’s Seed’. One example:

“Virginian cavalier speech patterns sound a lot like modern African-American dialects. It doesn’t take much imagination to figure out why, but it’s strange to think of a 17th century British lord speaking what a modern ear would clearly recognize as Ebonics.”

Mike Adams – Faculty Restrooms: The New Civil Rights Frontier

‘Make America Mexico Again’: Why Americans are fed up with illegals

Kurt Schlichter – Liberals Want To Break You By Forcing You To Lie

“Look, we feel terrible about your very real feelings that you aren’t the sex you are, and we don’t want to add to your pain, but the truth is the truth and we are not cruel or terrible or inaccurate when we refuse to pretend a delusion is reality.
