Pyramids of Giza part of black history, schoolchildren taught

Claim is made in educational resources compiled by Labour-run Luton council to help teachers deliver a ‘diverse curriculum’

The Pyramids of Giza have been included in a timeline of black history intended for schoolchildren.

Labour-run Luton council has compiled a range of educational resources to help local schools deliver a “diverse curriculum”, including a timeline citing the Pyramids of Giza in an overview of black history.

The 4,500-year-old monuments were built for the Egyptian pharaohs of the Fourth Dynasty, none of whom are believed by scholars to have been black.

Why Europeans are rising up against Net Zero

In many ways, it is incredible they got away with it for so long. For the past decade or so, mainstream politicians across Europe have stopped promising to improve their voters’ living standards. Instead, they have boasted about their plans to limit them. They have extolled the virtues of a higher cost of living, deindustrialisation and restrictions on personal freedoms. And they expected most people wouldn’t mind or perhaps even notice – because all this was to be done in the name of ‘saving the planet’ from climate change. But in 2023, that elite green consensus came crashing down to Earth.

John Robson: 5 Key Policy Improvements Ottawa Should Make in 2024

In my last column of the year, I consigned 2023 to the trash can of history with a gloomy declaration that things are bad and getting worse, and a wish for a Happy New Year where Canadians start demanding better policy instead of watching our politicians drift into disaster. And I kick off 2024 by calling my own bluff about admitting we’re in trouble, then making “a New Year’s list of resolutions… that contains five key policy areas and the things you won’t tolerate politicians doing and those you really want them to do,” with my five areas being national defence, finances, the economy, health care, and regulation.

‘Queering God’ And ‘How To Be A Bitch’: Here Are Just A Few Of The Craziest Courses Universities Offered In 2023

Universities offered students in the U.S. the opportunity to enroll in many courses that push gender ideology and left-wing activism during the 2023-2024 school year.

Princeton University offered a class titled “Black + Queer in Leather: Black Leather/BDSM Material Culture” in the Spring 2023 semester, according to the university’s course catalog. The class will survey black BDSM culture via research available in libraries and individuals involved in the groups that participate in the culture.

‘We’re Headed for Conflict’: Fight to Protect Women’s Sports Expected to Heat Up in 2024

Since former University of Pennsylvania male swimmer Lia Thomas stole a title and trophy from then-University of Kentucky swimmer Riley Gaines at the 2022 NCAA Women’s Championships, the fairness-in-women’s-sports issue has roiled American politics.

It’s been two years of lobbying by advocacy groups and activists such as Gaines to protect women’s sports from male intrusion. More than 20 Republican states have passed laws prohibiting males from competing on K–12 and collegiate female teams. But overshadowing these strides is a convoluted mess of court rulings, federal statutes and regulations, and policies adopted by the various athletics governing bodies.

The Loser of the Year: Ibram X. Kendi

Ibram Kendi – Race Baiting Grifter

According to him, much of the backlash emerged from the stereotype that “Black people can’t manage money.”

Ibram X. Kendi was at the top of the world in 2020. He had become the leading evangelist for the idea that Americans should strive for racial equity by active discrimination in favor of African Americans. He stated this idea quite clearly in his 2019 book How to Be an Antiracist: “The only remedy to racist discrimination,” he said, “is antiracist discrimination.” As the movement of racial reckoning swept the country following the death of George Floyd, corporate America and higher education treated Kendi’s approach to race as dogma. How to Be an Antiracist rocketed to the top of the New York Times bestseller list and became required reading in schools, universities, and workplaces across the United States.

Five ‘grey swan’ possibilities for 2024

These low-probability events could have major global implications

A “black swan” is a very unlikely but highly consequential surprise event. By their very nature, black swans can’t be predicted in advance, though they tend to be rationalised later with the gift of hindsight. “Grey swans”, however, are different: though they probably won’t happen, they could plausibly — and foreseeably — change the course of events.

A Reckoning Approaches

How to sum up 2023? Pondering the year gone by, I’m aware of having frequently experienced a sense that America, and to some extent the world, was approaching a day of reckoning – a sense that events on a wide variety of fronts were advancing toward a decisive climax of a yet indeterminate nature. Another way to put this is to say that it was the year in which the enemies of freedom began to practice their perfidy with unprecedented aggressiveness and to purvey their preposterous narrative with a new degree of reckless abandon – even as that perfidy became more transparent to the average American citizen and the narrative seemed to take significant steps toward collapsing.

How our scornful elites inflamed tensions over immigration

Long-standing tensions over immigration have erupted on to the streets over the past year.

Back in February, protests over the housing of asylum seekers at a hotel in Knowsley, north-west England, turned violent as masked thugs clashed with the police. Nine months later, we saw even more explosive scenes across the Irish Sea in Dublin, as protests over Ireland’s asylum policies turned into a full-scale riot.

The Great Taking: You Really No Longer Own Your Securities, and You Could Also Lose Your Freedom

Under a veil of benevolence, the Great Reset engineered by the World Economic Forum (WEF), aims to shift wealth from individuals and small businesses to global organizations controlled by the elite.  As part of this agenda, a revamping of the financial system has been underway for – believe it or not – over half a century, says David Rogers Webb in his recent book The Great Taking and its accompanying documentary.

Webb’s research and insights demonstrate that the WEF’s dubious catchphrase You’ll own nothing, and you’ll be happy already has risky implications for investments in securities, mutual funds, pension funds, and the like. Investors, he shows, are no longer ‘owners’ of securities; they are only ‘unsecured creditors.’ Besides, investments are vulnerable to the vagaries of the opaque derivatives market.  If the system collapses – he says this is inevitable – investors will not only lose money, they will receive no compensation.

The Wuhan Cover-Up: Review of Bobby Kennedy’s Crucial Book

When Bobby Kennedy talked about writing this book a couple of years ago, I asked him, why? Mindful of how the truth about everything COVID (and much else) was being memory-holed, he said he wanted to create an accurate historical record of what happened, for the future.

I thought that was a good answer. We desperately need a clear, accurate understanding about many things that have been taking place over the past few years, or should I say decades, and we all need to be saving hard copies or pdfs on hard drives of the important bits of history that we dig up.
