In this episode, my guest is Kevin DeAnna. Although that name may not ring a bell, you’ve probably read his prolific writing. That’s because for over the last decade, DeAnna has produced thousands of articles under two pen names: James Kirkpatrick and Gregory Hood. VDare readers and Twitter users will recognize him as James Kirkpatrick, while Gab users and readers of American Renaissance and Counter-Currents will know him as Gregory Hood. A refreshingly out-spoken and unapologetic advocate for truth, DeAnna is also the author of two books, “Conservatism Inc.: The Battle for the American Right” (available in ebook, or audiobook and paperback) and “Waking Up From the American Dream.”
DeAnna and I discuss state-mandated discrimination against Whites and Asians (a.k.a. the Civil Rights Act of 1964), “disparate impact,” “equality” as highest moral good, the Confederate Battle Flag, secession, the importance of truly unfettered free speech, ideology as a protected category, Con Inc gatekeepers, traditional Catholicism, the illusion of private property, ways to check power as a “people under occupation,” and more!

Lastly, I’ll leave you with a smattering of DM content which touches on many of the over-arching themes covered in this interview: “Digital struggle sessions” • “Lyin’ Atlanta, part 2” • “Damn the race pimps” • “Fake secession for thee; despotism for me” • “A gulag of the mind” • “Kristallnacht for legacy America” • “Apparently, we will get fooled again” • “The antidote for the therapeutic state” • “KKKlown world” • and my contribution to the book “The Honorable Cause: A Free South—Twelve Southern Essays.”
