In 1862's 'Rome and Jerusalem,' perhaps the earliest Zionist text, Moses Hess asked France to "help the Jews to found colonies which may extend from Suez to Jerusalem and from the banks of the Jordan to the coast of the Mediterranean." 2/

In late August 1898, the Second Zionist Congress established the Jewish Colonial Trust, the financial arm of the World Zionist Organization and the first official Zionist bank. In 1902, the Anglo-Palestine Company Ltd. was founded as a subsidiary of the Jewish Colonial Trust. 3/

In 1902, Theodor Herzl, father of political Zionism, begged Cecil Rhodes to support the Zionist project and facilitate Jewish settlement of Palestine. Zionism was in Britain's imperial interest, Herzl suggested, "Because it is something colonial." 4/

Revisionist Zionist leader Vladmir Jabotinsky, who founded and led the Irgun militia, wrote explicitly in his 1923 Zionist manifesto, "The Iron Wall," that "Zionism is a colonization adventure and therefore it stands or it falls by the question of armed force." 5/

Jabotinsky also wrote, "Zionist colonization, even the most restricted, must either be terminated or carried out in defiance of the will of the native population," and that it was "necessary to carry on colonization against the will of the Palestinian Arabs." 6/

One of the leading Zionist organizations supporting the Yishuv (Jewish settlers) in Mandatory Palestine was the Palestine Jewish Colonization Association, established in 1924. (It was originally founded in 1891 as the Jewish Colonization Association.) 7/

The Jewish Agency, formed in 1929 by the 16th Zionist Congress, was (and is still) tasked with increasing Jewish immigration to Palestine. Its fundraising arm originally operated under the auspices of World Zionist Organization's aptly-named "Colonization Department." 8/

On October 5, 1937, David Ben-Gurion - later Israel's first prime minister - sent a letter to his son Amos in which he wrote that "Palestine...contains vast colonization potential which the Arabs neither need nor are qualified (because of their lack of need) to exploit." 9/

In mid-1947, the Jewish Agency presented its position to the United Nations Special Committee on Palestine. It declared "industrial development in Palestine" was "part of...the migration of industry from the old industrial countries to colonial or semi-colonial territories." 10/

During the presentation, Chaim Weizmann-later Israel's 1st president-stated, "As compared with the result of the colonizing activities of other peoples, our impact on the Arabs has not produced very much worse results than what has been produced by others in other countries." 11/

Moshe Shertok-Israel's 2nd prime minister-boasted of Zionism to the UNSCOP, saying "it will not be easy to find an instance in the history of colonization where a large scale settlement scheme has been conducted with so much respect for the interests of existing population." 12/

Clearly, Zionism's colonial nature was explicit from the outset and was leveraged as a selling point to gain European support. When colonialism began to lose legitimacy, the term was retired.

So don't ever claim that "we Zionists never called ourselves colonialists."

13/END

In 1891 leading Zionist thinker Asher Ginsburg (Ahad Ha'am) wrote that "when the life of our people in Palestine will develop to such an extent as to push out, to a small or large extent, the indigenous population of the country, then not easily will they give up their place." 2/

In 1898, Theodor Herzl recognized that, in order to establish a "Jewish state" in Palestine, the inconvenient indigenous population would have to be removed. “We shall try to spirit the penniless [Palestinian Arab] population (i.e. Arab) across the border," he wrote. 3/

Israel Zangwill, British leader of the Jewish Territorialist Organization (ITO), wrote in 1904 of "a difficulty from which the Zionist dare not avert his eyes, though he rarely likes to face it." It was that "Palestine proper has already its inhabitants." 4/

So what was his solution? "We must be prepared...to drive out by the sword the tribes in possession as our forefathers did."

Similarly, Chaim Weizmann referred to Palestinians as "the rocks of Judea, as obstacles that had to be cleared on a difficult path." 5/

his 1926 address to Nat'l Conference of the United Palestine Appeal in Boston, Weizmann said Palestinians "are in the country, and have been there for ages. We are the newcomers and have to become part and parcel of the country. We are planting a new people in the country. 6/

In 1929, early Labor Zionist intellectual Berl Katznelson declared, "Zionist enterprise is an enterprise of conquest," admitting that "it is by no chance that I use military terms when speaking of settlement." 7/

In 1930, Menachem Usshishkin, a powerful early pioneer of Zionism and leading member of the Jewish National Fund, stated, "If there are other inhabitants there [in Palestine], they must be transferred to some other place. We must take over the land." 8/

in 1936, Ussishkin commented, "Now the [Palestinian] Arabs do not want us because we want to be the rulers. I will fight for this. I will make sure that we will be the landlords of this land...because this country belongs to us not to them." 9/

In 1936, another leading Zionist, Arthur Ruppin, who led colonization efforts through the Jewish National Fund, declared, "On every site where we purchase land and where we settle people, the present cultivators will inevitably be dispossessed." 10/

In June 1937, David Ben-Gurion wrote to Jewish Agency head Moshe Shertok, "Were I an Arab...I would rebel even more vigorously, bitterly, and desperately against the immigration that will one day turn Palestine and all its Arab residents over to Jewish rule." 11/

Ben-Gurion told the 20th Zionist Congress in August 1937, "New Jewish settlement will not be possible unless there is a transfer of the Arab peasantry," adding, "Jewish power in the country...will also increase our possibilities to carry out the transfer on a large scale." 12/

At the November 21, 1937 meeting of Jewish Agency's Transfer Committee, Yosef Weitz, Land Department chief at the Jewish National Fund, boasted that "transfer" not only "diminish[es] the Arab population," but also "release[s] it for Jewish inhabitants." 13/

In 1938, Ben-Gurion reaffirmed these sentiments: "Let us not ignore the truth among ourselves. Politically we are the aggressors and they defend themselves. The country is theirs, because they inhabit it, whereas we want to come here and settle down." 14/

At the same time, Ussishkin insisted, "We cannot start the Jewish state with...half the population being Arab...Such a state cannot survive even half an hour." Regarding the forcible ethnic cleansing of over sixty thousand Palestinian families, he added: "It is most moral." 15/

Ruppin agreed: "I do not believe in the transfer of individuals. I believe in the transfer of entire villages." He also wrote, "Land is the most necessary thing for establishing roots in Palestine...We are bound in each case...to remove the peasants who cultivate the land." 16/

Moshe Shertok, Jewish Agency chief and later Israel's second prime minister, said, "We have forgotten that we have not come to an empty land to inherit it, but we have come to conquer a country from people inhabiting it." 17/

On March 20, 1941, the Jewish Agency's Yosef Weitz wrote, "The complete evacuation of the country from its other inhabitants and handing it over to the Jewish people is the answer." 18/

In 1941, Weitzmann told Ivan Maisky, Soviet ambassador to England, that "if half a million Arabs could be transferred, two million Jews could be put in their place. That, of course, would be a first installment; what might happen afterwards [would be] a matter for history." 19/

In a 1941 memorandum entitled "Outlines of the Zionist Policy", Ben-Gurion recognized that "the majority of the Arabs could hardly be expected to leave voluntarily," noting, "Complete transfer without compulsion – and ruthless compulsion, at that – is hardly imaginable." 20/

Founder and longtime president of the World Jewish Congress Nahum Goldmann recalled Ben-Gurion saying in 1956, "Why should the Arabs make peace? If I was an Arab leader I would never make terms with Israel. That is natural: we have taken their country." 21/

In 1969, Moshe Dayan declared, "Jewish villages were built in the place of Arab villages...There is not a single place built in this country that did not have a former Arab population." 22/

Again, Zionism is a colonial ideology that explicitly relies on the forceful removal of the native population from its homeland. To live in peace with those you have displaced, dispossessed & disenfranchised, you must guarantee equal rights for all. 23/END

Siyonist İsrail Devleti Naziler Tarafından Katledilen 6 Milyon Yahudi'nin Mirasçısı Olabilir mi?

Şurası kesin bir gerçektir ki, Siyonizm'in, Yahudi halkıyla hiç bir tarihsel, duygusal ve maddi ortaklığı yoktur. Siyonizm, Yahudi halkını ve onun trajedisini kendi işgalci amacı için kullanmıştır hepsi bu. 21 Haziran 1933'de yani Naziler iktidar olduktan hemen sonra Almanya Siyonist Federasyonu Nazi Partisi'ne yolladığı destek mesajında şöyle diyordu:

"Irk ilkesini hayata geçiren yeni (Nazi) devletinin temelleri üzerinde kurulacak yapı içerisinde bizler de kendi topluluğumuza ayrılacak alanda Babayurdu (Fatherland) için elimizden gelen her türlü verimli faaliyeti sürdürmeyi umuyoruz."

Ve Dünya Siyonist Örgütü Kongresi 1933'de Hitler'e karşı eylem çağrısını 43'e karşı 240 oyla geri çevirdi. Bununla da kalmadı, Alman ekonomisinin dar boğazda olduğu bir dönemde Nazi Almanyası'na yönelik Yahudi boykotunu kırma kararı aldı. Dünya Siyonist Örgütü, Yahudi boykotunu kırarak Alman mallarının Ortadoğu ve Kuzey Avrupa'da dağıtımını üstlendi. Siyonistlerin Nazi dostluğunun karşılığı olarak SS Güvenlik Servisi'nden Mildenstein, Siyonizm'e destek olmak için altı ay boyunca Filistin'de kaldı.

Hitler'in Propaganda Bakanı Joseph Goebbels 1934'de Der Angriff'e (Hücum) Siyonizmi öven on iki bölümlük bir rapor yazdı ve bununla da yetinmeyip bir yüzünde gamalı hac öteki yüzünde de Siyonist David yildizi bulunan bir madalyon sipariş etti. 1935 Mayıs'ında SS Güvenlik Servisi Başkanı Heydrich tarafından Yahudiler, "iyi Yahudiler" ve "kötü Yahudiler" olarak ikiye ayrıldı. Heydrich, "İyi Yahudiler" olarak kategorize edilen Siyonistlere ilişkin Heydrich şunları diyordu:

"Kendilerine iyi dileklerimizle birlikte resmi desteğimizi de sunuyoruz."

Siyonistler, "kurulacak olan devletin zulme uğrayan Yahudiler için bir sığınak olacağını" ileri sürdüler ama bu bir yalandan ibaretti. Çünkü Naziler tarafından toplama kamplarına götürülecek Yahudilerin listesi Siyonist Dünya Örgütü'nün rehberliğinde hazırlanmıştır. Naziler ile koordineli çalışan ve Dünya Siyonist Örgütü tarafından kurulan sözde "Yahudileri Kurtarma Komitesi" bir taraftan çeşitli ülkelerde Yahudilere sığınma hakkı verilmesine yönelik çağrılara karşı çıkarken, bir taraftan da Nazilerle birlikte kendi Siyonist planlarına uygun olmayan Yahudilerin listesini hazırlayarak onların ölüm kamplarına götürülmesine yardımcı olmuştur. Örneğin Budapeşte'deki "Yahudileri Kurtarma Komitesi'nden Dr. Rudolph Kastner, Adolf Eichmann ile Macaristan'daki "Yahudi sorununu çözümlemek" üzere gizli bir anlaşma imzalamıştır. Anlaşmaya göre, kendilerinin ihtiyacı olan altı yüz Yahudi'ye yaşama hakkı verilmesi karşılığında geri kalan Yahudilerin yazgısı konusunda sessizlik sağlanacaktı.

Dünya Siyonist örgütü, Nazi zulmü altındaki Avrupa Yahudilerinden yalnızca küçük bir azınlığı kurtarmıştır; bu küçük azınlık, mesleki bilgisi olan yetişkin elemanlar ve kapital sahiplerinden teşekkül etmekteydi.

Siyonist İşçi Davar gazetesi editörü Berel Katznelson Siyonizm'in ölçütlerini şöyle açıklıyordu:

"Alman Yahudileri Filistin'de çocuk doğuramayacak kadar yaşlıydılar, Siyonist bir sömürge oluşturmaya yetecek kadar mesleki bilgileri yoktu, İbranice bilmiyorlardı ve Siyonist değillerdi."

Berel Katznelson'un açıkladığı ölçülerden dolayıdır ki, 1933'den 1935'e kadar göçmen kâğıdı almak için Dünya Siyonist Örgütü'ne başvuran Alman Yahudilerinin üçte ikisi reddedildi.

Özcesi; Siyonist İsrail Devleti, Naziler tarafından katledilen Yahudilerin mirasçısı değil, Yahudi jenosidinin (soykırım ) ortağıdır. Çünkü kurucuları, milyonlarca Yahudi'nin ölüm kamplarına götürülmesinde Nazilerle işbirliği yapmıştır.

[supernulperfection]

Lest one imagine this discourse to be the product of the delirium of an isolated retrograde journalist, we have only to quote then Prime Minister David Ben Gurion, who described the Sephardi immigrants as lacking even "the most elementary knowledge" and "without a trace of Jewish or human education." Ben Gurion repeatedly expressed contempt for the culture of the Oriental Jews: "We do not want Israelis to become Arabs. We are in duty bound to fight against the spirit of the Levant, which corrupts individuals and societies, and preserve the authentic Jewish values as they crystallized in the Diaspora." Over the years Israeli leaders constantly reinforced and legitimized these prejudices, which encompassed both Arabs and Oriental Jews. For Abba Eban, the "object should be to infuse [the Sephardim] with an Occidental spirit, rather than allow them to drag us into an unnatural Orientalism." Or again: "One of the great apprehensions which afflict us . . . is the danger lest the predominance of immigrants of Oriental origin force Israel to equalize its cultural level with that of the neighboring world." Golda Meir projected the Sephardim, in typical colonialist fashion, as coming from another, less developed time, for her, the sixteenth century (and for others, a vaguely defined "Middle Ages"): "Shall we be able," she asked, "to elevate these immigrants to a suitable level of civilization?" Ben Gurion, who called the Moroccan Jews "savages" at a session of a Knesset Committee, and who compared Sephardim, pejoratively (and revealingly), to the Blacks brought to the United States as slaves, at times went so far as to question the spiritual capacity and even the Jewishness of the Sephardim. In an article entitled "The Glory of Israel," published in the Government's Annual, the Prime Minister lamented that "the divine presence has disappeared from the Oriental Jewish ethnic groups," while he praised European Jews for having "led our people in both quantitative and qualitative terms." Zionist writings and speeches frequently advance the historiographically suspect idea that Jews of the Orient, prior to their "ingathering" into Israel, were somehow "outside of' history, thus ironically echoing 19th-century assessments, such as those of Hegel, that Jews, like Blacks, lived outside of the progress of Western Civilization. European Zionists in this sense resemble Fanon's colonizer who always "makes history"; whose life is "an epoch", "an Odyssey" against which the natives form an "almost inorganic background." Again in the early fifties, some of Israel's most celebrated intellectuals from the Hebrew University in Jerusalem wrote essays addressing the "ethnic problem." "We have to recognize," wrote Karl Frankenstein, "the primitive mentality of many of the immigrants from backward countries," suggesting that this mentality might be profitably compared to "the primitive expression of children, the retarded, or the mentally disturbed." Another scholar, Yosef Gross, saw the immigrants as suffering from "mental regression" and a "lack of development of the ego." The extended symposium concerning the "Sephardi problem" was framed as a debate concerning the "essence of primitivism." Only a strong infusion of European cultural values, the scholars concluded,would rescue the Arab Jews from their "backwardness." And in 1964, Kalman Katznelson published his frankly racist The Ashkenazi Revolution, where he protested the dangerous admission into Israel of large numbers of Oriental Jews, and where he argued the essential, irreversible genetic inferiority of the Sephardim, fearing the tainting of the Ashkenazi race by mixed-marriage and calling for the Ashkenazim to protect their interests in the face of a burgeoning Sephardi majority. Such attitudes have not disappeared; they are still prevalent, expressed by European Jews of the most diverse political orientations. The "liberal" Shulamit Aloni, head of the Citizen's Rights Party and a member of the Knesset, in 1983 denounced Sephardi demonstrators as "barbarous tribal forces" that were "driven like a flock with tom-toms" and chanting like "a savage tribe." The implicit trope comparing Sephardim to Black Africans recalls, ironically, one of the favored topic of European anti-Semitism, that of the "Black Jew." (In European-Jewish conversations, Sephardim are sometimes referred to as "schwartze-chaies" or "black animals"). Amnon Dankner, a columnist for the "liberal" daily Ha'aretz, favored by Ashkenazi intellectuals and known for its presumably high journalistic standards, meanwhile, excoriated Sephardi traits as linked to an Islamic culture clearly inferior to the Western culture "we are trying to adopt here." Presenting himself as the anguished victim of an alleged official "tolerance," the journalist bemoans his forced co-habitation with Oriental sub-humans.

A Blues Porch Party On A Rainy Night In Taylor It was a rainy Monday night, and a work night at that, and I was tired and not feeling like doing much of anything.

[rgr-pop]

that reminds me, i have been meaning to do a bit of a scholarly genealogy of that nu nu political history book, and the ones that preceded it. keeping names redacted here for searchability due to connections to me lol, i will revisit this later more clearly. re: the post i posted, i am assuming that kfp was on tracy’s committee, but i can’t remember. i know tracy’s chair was t*m bender, and her husband came out of the same program under m*rilyn young--i think kim was at least a reader on his diss... but tracy is not in this new book. kfp got her phd at columbia in 2005, i’m not sure who her chair was but per the acknowledgements of her first book, foner (obviously), freeman and katznelson were all on her committee. the first two are an easy guess given the time and place but her work doesn’t especially look like theirs--though imo j*shua freeman is so broadly influential bc writes too many books!--but i really should have realized (immediately guessed) she was a student of the latter. one of the editors, mason williams, also came out of columbia, but his advisor was alan brinkley--kind of an interesting insight here into links to old guard political historians and state historians vs. ...well, whatever katznelson is, that’s another discussion. for example: one of the authors got her phd in 2001 at princeton under DANIEL RODGERS which is a whole thing! right when he was working on age of fracture. 

david freund got his phd at michigan--i always forget this, and also that colored property is about here! i can’t figure out who advised him, but that would help me understand how michigan became the main place to study american political urban history of the latter twentieth century--when they hired l*ssiter a few years later, it basically turned into a l*ssiter factory. freund thanks elsa barkley brown, robin kelley who i forgot was there, earl lewis and terrence mcdonald--thinking terrence mcdonald is the answer to my question. kathleen canning would be another figure to look at, and i am wondering if deborah dash moore was there yet...i don’t think so actually.

off the top of my head i know two contributors to this new anthology did their phd under m*tt l*ssiter (who contributed a conclusion, along with fein’s), lily g*ismer (a co-editor) and n*than connolly. only one of these contributors came out of kevin kruse’s princeton (sarah m*lov), which is fascinating because...that department owns political history. i don’t know why i haven’t read her book, she looks cool as hell. rachel moran came out of penn state when jennifer mittelstadt was still there, a fact that makes me actually very interested in her work--i’m heavily anticipating her chapter on “the nanny state” given my current phase!

julie w*ise got her phd in 2009 at yale with gilbert joseph (i think he is a latin americanist) and stephen pitti, who is in chicano history (i think out of “immigration history”). melissa b*rja came out of columbia with mai ngai! i have some thoughts on that, probably.. everyone loves ngai’s work and yet it is also positioned as so peripheral to nu political history in a way that is...i have some thoughts.

brent c*bul, another editor, did his diss at uva with brian balogh. that is the program that l*ssiter came out of, though (per, again, first book acknowledgements) his advisor was paul gaston. he does thank balogh though along with NELSON LICHTENSTEIN and JULIAN BOND who, it had totally escaped me, were teaching in the department at the same time. this is interesting to me because uva just isn’t a player at all in modern us political history anymore (balogh is still there but he must be approaching retirement?). given lichtenstein this is all making sense to me now. i haaad forgotten that andrew k*hrl (also in this book) is at uva now, though. karhl got his phd at indiana under a number of mostly black history scholars including kg muhammad and claude clegg, and some historians of the south otherwise.

suleiman osman is one of two amstu ppl in this book--definitely in many ways the Political Turn is a turn against american studies, I would say--and he came out of harvard american civ, but I don’t know who advised hi---oh it was liz cohen. LMAO! that’s as canon political-cultural urban history as you can get! love it. that makes so much sense. stuart schrader also came out of american studies (nyu), i don’t know who was on his committee but i am dying to know because i am huuugely anticipating his book! 

so that’s definitely not as concentrated as i thought! but i want to refer to this later, when i read the book i want to compare it to its predecessors and kind of...map this and sort of see if there is a change in concentration (esp re relations to amstu and ethnic studies departments and cultural historians, i think)

“The fact that the creation of Israel entailed a grave injustice against the Palestinian people was well understood by Israel’s leaders. As [Israeli Prime Minister David] Ben-Gurion told Nahum Goldmann, president of the World Jewish Congress, in 1956, ‘If I was an Arab leader I would never make terms with Israel. That is natural: we have taken their country. Sure, God promised it to us, but what does that matter to them? Our God is not theirs. We come from Israel, it is true, but two thousand years ago, and what is that to them? There has been anti-semitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault? They only see one thing: we have come and stolen their country. Why should they accept that?.’ Ze’ev Jabotinsky, the founding father of the Israeli right, made essentially the same point when he wrote in 1923, ‘Colonization is self-explanatory and what it implies is fully understood by every sensible Jew and Arab. There can be only one purpose in colonization. For the country’s Arabs that purpose is essentially unacceptable. That is a natural reaction and nothing will change it.’ Berl Katznelson, a close ally of Ben-Gurion and a leading intellectual force among the early Zionists, put the point bluntly: ‘the Zionist enterprise is an enterprise of conquest.’” - Stephen Walt, chapter three, A Dwindling Moral Case, page 96 of “The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy” (at Concord Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGNLmpBHa0m/?igshid=18b3bq1sitzxy

[yidquotes]

I believe in prophets because I have met one. … Of Otha [Turner’s] favorite sayings, one has always stayed with me – a phrase he would always offer to his family and friends when they were faced with a difficult life decision: “Don’t nothing make a fail but a try!” Its meaning was clear to me: Trying to do something is not enough. You simply must do it. Given the obstacles we are faced with in life, the only way to meet them is head-on. Happiness, community, and justice must be pursued with conviction and determination. Expecting them simply to be given to us is like walking through the desert, hoping for an oasis that might never come.

Jefferson Sessions’ recent concerns about discrimination against white reflects a hundred years of US policies to exclude minorities from the most obvious benefits from major social programs, like Social Security, the GI Bill, the Fair Labor Act, and the National Housing Act, because we don’t want ‘those people’ to have the same benefits as white people, do we?:

In fact, today’s socioeconomic order has been significantly shaped by federally backed affirmative action for whites. The most important pieces of American social policy — the minimum wage, union rights, Social Security and even the G.I. Bill — created during and just after the Great Depression, conferred enormous benefits on whites while excluding most Southern blacks.

Southern Democrats in Congress did this by carving out occupational exclusions; empowering local officials who were hostile to black advancement to administer the policies; and preventing anti-discrimination language from appearing in social welfare programs.

New Deal and Fair Deal initiatives created a modern middle class by enabling more Americans to attend college, secure good jobs, buy houses and start businesses. But in the waning days of Jim Crow, as a result of public policy, many African-Americans were blocked from these opportunities and fell even further behind their white counterparts. The country missed the chance to build an inclusive middle class.

The congressmen from the 17 states that practiced legal segregation constituted a pivotal bloc. When Southern-led congressional committees drafted the law that created the Social Security program in 1935, they excluded maids and farmworkers, the two dominant job categories for Southern blacks and Southwestern Latinos, from the program. This denied benefits to 66 percent of African-Americans across the country, and as much as 80 percent of Southern blacks. It also disproportionately hurt Mexican-Americans.

These exclusions “reinforced the semblance of a caste system of labor in the South and Southwest,” according to a recent study by the scholar David Stoesz. “Absent a government safety net, minority workers had to work at any wage available, until they dropped.” Although the exclusions were eliminated in the 1950s, it proved difficult for these workers to catch up, since the program required at least five years of contributions before benefits could be received.

Southern legislators introduced the same job category exclusions into other New Deal laws: the Wagner Act of 1935 that helped to expand industrial unions, the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 that mandated a 40-hour workweek and a minimum wage that explicitly left out agricultural and domestic workers.

Representative James Wilcox, a Depression-era Florida Democrat, explained the region’s position during the Fair Labor Standards Act debate: “You cannot put the Negro and the white man on the same basis and get away with it,” he declared.

When Congress passed the G.I. Bill in 1944 to help white veterans buy homes, attend college, get job training and start business ventures, it could have done the same for blacks. But at Southern lawmakers’ insistence, local officials administered these benefits. As a result, Southern blacks were left out, except for low-level vocational training. The law accommodated segregation in higher education, created job ceilings imposed by local officials, and tolerated local banks’ unwillingness to approve federally insured mortgages or small-business loans for African-Americans and Latinos.

When the federal government aided home buyers with the National Housing Act of 1934, which insured private mortgages, it might also have warded off housing segregation and helped blacks purchase homes. Instead, it supported racist covenants and typically denied mortgages to blacks. This legacy persists. The median household wealth for white families, which consists primarily of equity in housing, stands today at $134,230, according to the Economic Policy Institute. But for African-American families, it is just $11,030.

The unsettling history of this affirmative action for whites significantly widened racial gaps in income, wealth and opportunity that continue to scar American life.

Don’t be too surprised that the folks that want to Make America Great Again will take actions to return us to the systemic and endemic racist policies of the previous century. After all, as James Wilcox said, ‘You cannot put the Negro and the white man on the same basis and get away with it’.
