In this episode, I speak with Arthur Kemp, an archaeologist, philosopher and white nationalist. We discuss the rise and fall of civilizations, and the role of race in determining the fate of civilizations. Arthur has been a long time member of the White Nationalist movement, and has been involved in some of the most extreme white nationalist movements in history. He is also the author of the book, "March of the Titans: A Guide to the Rise and Fall of the World's Greatest Empires".
00:00:00.260Arthur Kemp, I'm delighted and honoured to have you here, so thanks for joining us.
00:00:04.600It's a great pleasure, Lana. I think you and Red Ice do a great job, and I'm very honoured to be on your show.
00:00:10.020Well, it's refreshing to speak with you, because I've actually tried doing a couple white archaeology shows with some racialists, but it never turns out good.
00:00:17.700And unfortunately, it can come across a little wacky sometimes. I'm sure you've come across that too.
00:00:23.000Unfortunately, I've had more than my fair share of dealing with wacky people, so I know exactly what you're talking about.
00:00:29.400But it doesn't necessarily have to be. I think what happens a lot of the time is that people tend to overplay what the reality is.
00:00:40.220And sometimes if they're not happy with the reality, they add to it.
00:00:44.780I think that's quite common amongst not only people in the so-called white nationalist movement, but probably everywhere.
00:00:51.800Yeah. Well, when I mentioned to our listeners that you were coming on, a lot of people responded in saying how March of the Titans
00:00:57.800was a major eye-opener for them. And for me, you know, I just love Eurocentric history and archaeology.
00:01:03.500March of the Titans, it's a masterful body of work. And so I wanted to read a quote to kind of summarize it.
00:01:09.500Most importantly, revealed in this work is the one true cause of the rise and fall of the world's greatest empires,
00:01:15.680that all civilizations rise and fall according to their racial homogeneity, and nothing else.
00:01:20.720A nation can survive wars, defeats, catastrophes, but not racial dissolution, a.k.a. diversity, right?
00:01:27.620So Rome didn't collapse from debauchery and decadence. So where do you like to begin when approaching this subject with newcomers?
00:01:33.700Well, the very first way to understand it is to take a step back away from any idea of denigrating other people.
00:01:45.380That's probably a very important basis to start with. It's one of the biggest problems in this so-called movement is that it seems to be based more on putting other people down.
00:01:55.920You don't have to put anyone else down. All you have to do is stand back and look at it from a purely objective point of view.
00:02:02.560What causes culture? What causes civilization? And how do these things change?
00:02:09.600Now, my basis, whenever anyone asks me, oh, can you explain what you mean? I always say, look, it's very simple.
00:02:17.240Each culture, each civilization is a product of a certain people.
00:02:22.000So, for example, the Chinese people created Chinese civilization, the Japanese people created Japanese civilization,
00:02:29.100the Australian Aborigines created Australian Aborigines civilization, and the Europeans created European civilization.
00:02:36.180Now, you don't have to be subjective about any of them. Of course, we all like to think that our own version is better,
00:02:44.500but that's a subjective opinion. We can be objective about it. We can say, yes, look, Europeans created European civilization,
00:02:52.440so on and so forth. Now, if you, and generally everyone will say, yes, well, that's obvious.
00:02:57.800Obviously, Europeans created European civilization. Obviously, Chinese people created Chinese civilization,
00:03:02.720so on and so forth. Once you've got them to agree with that very basic and very simple fact,
00:03:08.340then all you do, you say to them, well, what happens if all the Chinese people had to vanish tomorrow?
00:03:13.580Well, what would happen to Chinese civilization? Oh, well, probably it would disappear.
00:03:17.640Yes, obviously. If the Japanese people disappear tomorrow, would anything remain of Japanese civilization?
00:03:23.760No. If the Australian Aborigines people disappear tomorrow, would anything remain of their culture
00:03:28.740and their civilization? No. So, therefore, obviously, if the European people disappear,
00:03:34.400nothing will remain of their culture or their civilization? Yes.
00:03:38.080Everyone will say, well, yes, that's pretty obvious. I said, well, there you go.
00:03:42.560That is the cause of the explanation of the rise and fall of all civilizations. If the people who created
00:03:49.280a civilization disappear for any reason, whether it be a replacement through mass immigration,
00:03:57.620whether it be through extermination in warfare or death by disease or whatever, if a founding
00:04:03.940population disappears, that founding population's culture and civilization will disappear with it.
00:04:11.460And once you've got that particular, and that's a very basic, it's not a radical position,
00:04:16.880and there's almost no one I've ever met anywhere in the world that's been able to disagree with that.
00:04:22.000Once you've got them to understand that basic principle, then all you have to do is show that every great
00:04:27.980civilization in history, no matter what its race, no matter what its origin, that every great civilization
00:04:35.860has vanished once the people who created it vanish. And if you can get people to understand that very
00:04:42.540simple, very basic principle, then history stops becoming a jumble of meaningless dates and events,
00:04:49.360and you can see a very clear flow in it.
00:04:52.280Yeah, and you've done a beautiful job outlining a lot of these civilizations. Egypt's a classic one
00:04:57.200that people like to point to. And then you also mentioned like the Great Depression or Germany
00:05:01.860after World War II, how all these countries have been able to pull themselves up after these events
00:05:07.040because racially it was still homogenous, right?
00:05:09.980That's exactly the point. Germany is actually a good case in point, what you're talking about,
00:05:14.400because a lot of people say, oh, the Roman Empire collapsed because the barbarians sacked Rome
00:05:19.100in 453, and that was the end of Rome. In actual fact, the Celts sacked Rome in 212 BC,
00:05:25.660but Rome came back. Rome eventually conquered the Celts after the Celts sacked Rome.
00:05:31.700So you're absolutely right. People who believe, for example, that military defeat would be the
00:05:37.080cause of the collapse of an empire, you're right. You know, 80% of Germany was flattened to the ground
00:05:42.460in 1945, and by 1955, 1960, it was once again the strongest nation in Western Europe.
00:05:50.500If debauchery, if moral degeneracy would be the reason for the collapse of a civilization,
00:05:55.660then I can assure you Britain should have collapsed in the 1600s.
00:06:00.140You look at the debauched histories of the royal families of Britain, and I'm not picking on Britain
00:06:05.940in particular, but it is a good example. If you look at the murders of each other and brothers killing
00:06:12.640each other and all sorts of horrible things, moral debauchery should have finished off Britain
00:06:18.540many, many, many centuries ago. And of course, that didn't happen.
00:06:23.380Precisely because, as you said there, that if, as long as a founding population remains in place,
00:06:30.960as long as it remains the majority population, and as long as it remains homogenous,
00:06:36.300that society will continue to be in existence.
00:06:38.740Well, I know this is nearly impossible to answer, but according to history from
00:06:43.320what you've seen, what or who in these societies begins pushing towards diversity, if you will?
00:06:50.100Yeah, now that's the great question. I know a lot of people say,
00:06:55.220oh, it's the Jews, or oh, it's this, or oh, it's Christianity, or oh, it's this religion,
00:07:00.600or that religion, or this belief system. I'm sorry to say, but in almost every case that I can think of,
00:07:07.240it's simple ignorance of the long-term racial consequences of using foreign labor.
00:07:16.040And the example that I always use is, for example, if I had to go, if someone had to invent a time machine,
00:07:23.440which would be great, but if someone had to invent a time machine, and I could go back to
00:07:28.980pre-Civil War Atlanta in Georgia, and fly out there, and pick up one of those big
00:07:36.040cotton plantation owners, who's got his 500 Negro slaves slaving away in the field, picking his cotton,
00:07:42.780making him and his family a very rich man, put him in a time machine, and take him to Atlanta, Georgia in 2016,
00:07:50.500and drop him off in the middle of Atlanta, and say, look here,
00:07:53.480the direct consequence of you, and the small number of plantation owners who use black labor,
00:08:01.700is that your great-grandchildren cannot walk the streets of Atlanta, Georgia, cannot walk the streets
00:08:07.700of your state's capital anymore, because the place is now taken over by blacks, and it's now unsafe for
00:08:14.740white people to walk in the street. I'm quite sure that that plantation owner never dreamed,
00:08:20.440never wanted in his wildest imagining, never wanted that for his great-grandchildren,
00:08:26.600but he didn't understand the long-term consequences of using foreign labor, and I think this played out
00:08:34.640in Egypt, this played out in Sumeria, this played out in every great civilization that has fallen,
00:08:41.100or in South Africa, or in Rhodesia. I don't think they understood the consequences of using it,
00:08:47.960so it's easy to blame others, and certainly others do have a role to play, I'm not denying that,
00:08:55.900but it's, I'm afraid the truth which hurts is that it's quite often white people themselves
00:09:01.760who don't have an understanding of the global geopolitical racial consequences of their actions.
00:09:08.460Now one thing, you know, English always get blamed for is colonialism, and I always say
00:09:14.140English colonialism cannot at all be compared to the mass invasion of today, but what are your
00:09:19.640thoughts on English colonialism? Was it wrong? Yes, I'm a firm anti-colonialist. There are two ways
00:09:30.400to approach colonialism. Colonialism that's done on a Ragnar, Rigbeard, Redbeard, might is right principle,
00:09:41.080is a immutable law of nature. Almost every colonization process has been probably undertaken
00:09:47.700on that basis. Just to divert for one second, you do know, of course, that the first colonizers
00:09:53.220of anywhere were in fact non-Europeans colonizing Europe. Yes. It's very, it's a factual inaccuracy
00:10:00.620to say that Europeans started the colonization process. In actual fact, the first great colonizing
00:10:06.460invasions were of non-Europeans into Europe, so if anyone should be screaming for reparations,
00:10:11.920it should be the Europeans. Now, leaving that aside, if you look at the English colonization
00:10:18.080process, when, for example, if you're going to colonize a place properly, and I'm now divorcing
00:10:24.200it from any moral issues, because I believe there is a moral issue at play here, but if
00:10:28.860you're going to divorce it from a moral issue, the way you colonize a place is you move in
00:10:33.100and you push out, you eradicate the native inhabitants and you occupy the territory and you take it
00:10:39.740over. Okay? A good example of English colonialism that was done this way would have been Australia.
00:10:45.020Okay? Or the United States of America. They simply pushed the native, the, I don't want to call them
00:10:52.560the Native Americans, because they weren't even native. I want to call them the American Indians.
00:10:56.460They simply pushed them out through mass immigration and they simply took their lands and they colonized
00:11:01.540them. They fought them, defeated the Indians, and that was it. That's how America was colonized.
00:11:06.660That's how Australia was colonized. Now, in those days, morally, no one thought anything of it,
00:11:13.760because that's how all of history had run. I think that we nowadays have reached the stage where all
00:11:18.520of society has advanced and we can take moral judgments on things. Say, for example, and he has
00:11:26.320the great case, the Jews all move into Palestine, beat up the Palestinians, kick the Palestinians out,
00:11:32.100torture them, oppress them. I think we have a right to say, listen here, the time has moved on.
00:11:37.960This is no longer 1700 or 1800 where people could get away with such immoral or morally questionable
00:11:45.520things as colonizing and beating up a native population. And therefore, Israel should be
00:11:50.220criticized for colonizing Palestine at the expense of the Palestinians, because that's essentially what
00:11:56.540they've done. They've adopted the Ragnar Redbeard approach of driving the Palestinians out.
00:12:00.140Now, that would have might have been acceptable in 1800 or 1700, as the English did in America
00:12:05.320or Australia, but it's no longer acceptable in this day and age. Going back to, if you look at
00:12:12.940English colonization, for example, in where I was born, Rhodesia, or what was then southern
00:12:19.780Rhodesia when I was born there, you look at English colonization there, that wasn't done on a
00:12:25.020might is right principle. That was done on a white supremacist principle, where a small number of
00:12:30.460whites moved in and established a government to rule over many, many, many more millions, in fact,
00:12:38.860of blacks. Now, a white supremacist government, apart from its moral questionability, is also doomed
00:12:46.540to failure, because it ignores the demographic principle which governs all society. Those who make it,
00:12:52.520the majority of people in a society, determine the nature and direction of that society.
00:12:57.920And that's why white supremacism never works, and it's actually a recipe for failure. Apartheid in
00:13:03.480South Africa was another system like that, designed on minority rule over a majority population,
00:13:09.960guaranteed to fail over the long term, no matter what the short-term policy applications were.
00:13:15.640So, yes, we can now, from the advantage of many centuries later, say, well, it wasn't really
00:13:23.540fair of the English to colonize North America, or the Germans, or the French, or whoever it all took
00:13:29.380part in it, because they all took part in it. But I think we can now look back and say, look,
00:13:34.080it was done. We can draw a line underneath it. We can say, we now deal with the reality of the
00:13:38.720situation as we have it now. And if we adopt the principle that it was wrong for the English to
00:13:44.800colonize any part of the world, or it was wrong for the Europeans to colonize any part of the world,
00:13:52.000therefore it is also wrong for the Third World to colonize any part of the world as well.
00:13:57.840So, if it was wrong for the English to colonize America, but that's now done,
00:14:02.480then it is also wrong for the Mexicans to colonize America in this day and age as well.
00:14:08.340Or it is wrong for Africa to colonize Europe in this day and age,
00:14:12.000just because Europeans colonized Africa in the 1600s or 1700s.
00:14:16.780Now, would you say there's a difference, though, between colonialism and exploration? Because,
00:14:21.320you know, white people we explored, you know, we cataloged plants and animals, we learned so much,
00:14:26.220right? Huge difference between exploration and colonization. Absolutely massive.
00:14:32.480You're right. Absolutely right. I think that exploring the world was something that Europeans
00:14:39.140had to do. It's no coincidence that the Europeans explored the world and no one else did. I think
00:14:45.440that's an inherent differential difference, which is still valid to this very day. And certainly,
00:14:54.000but I think, look, as I said to you, I'm not going to condemn people for what they did in 1700s or 1600s.
00:15:00.200That was the norm at the time. It's like condemning people for
00:15:04.220not allowing women to have the vote. You know, most people, I know there's some people in the alt-right
00:15:13.160who don't think so, but most people today would not suggest that women shouldn't have the vote.
00:15:18.780But, you know, a hundred years ago, it was an accepted principle that women didn't have the vote.
00:15:24.540Now, one can sit nowadays and moralize on that. Or you can say, well, that was the norm at the time.
00:15:31.120I'm not going to condemn anybody for holding the views which were dominant at that time. But these are
00:15:36.160the values which we have today. And so, you're right. I think colonization is a morally,
00:15:47.920you can judge colonization only in the morals of the time. You can't judge it by today's morals and standards.
00:15:55.020Yeah, I suppose the better thing to do would have been to explore and perhaps help or interact with people
00:16:00.660who wanted helping or wanted to trade information and learn skills from each other,
00:16:04.940but then leave afterwards and not settle there for good, because there's a difference between having an exchange
00:16:09.540and permanently living there, which creates problems, right?
00:16:12.600Correct. And I think the immigration crisis that faces the first world today is the direct product
00:16:20.340of colonization. Let me explain it to you this way, and I can explain it to you because of my own
00:16:27.760personal experiences in Rhodesia and South Africa. Before the arrival of the white colonists,
00:16:35.540the average black reproduction rate, the average black woman would have had maybe,
00:16:40.860from the time of puberty to the time of whenever they would die, and they'd die in the early age of
00:16:47.020in their 40s or something like that. But from time from puberty to the time of the cessation of their
00:16:54.460reproductive life cycle, put it that way, they would have maybe 20 pregnancies. But before the advent of
00:17:02.420white colonization, of those 20 pregnancies, probably 17 or 18 would die either in pregnancy or would be
00:17:10.840stillborn or would starve to death or whatever the case was, so their population numbers were
00:17:17.400always in proportion to the land's ability to support their subsistence existence.
00:17:23.240So along comes Whitey, along comes the white colonist, sometimes with a gun in one hand and the Bible in the
00:17:31.000other, or sometimes just holding a Bible or sometimes just holding a gun. But whatever it is, he comes along
00:17:35.960and he sets up a society and he says, wow, look at this infant mortality rate. It's terrible. How can you have
00:17:42.540an infant mortality rate of 95 percent? We've got to fix this. It's our Christian duty. It's our moral duty.
00:17:48.400It's our whatever duty to do this. And so what they do is they bring in hospitals, they bring in schools, they bring in
00:17:54.180medicine, they bring in education. Now, the black woman is no longer having a 95 percent infant mortality rate.
00:18:02.420Now he has, she has a 10 or 15 percent infant mortality rate. So what happens to the black population?
00:18:08.840It skyrockets. And that's what happened in South Africa. There's a good, good test. If you look up and
00:18:16.180you can see it, find it online nowadays. You can find the 1913 Encyclopedia Britannica, the famous 11th edition. It's
00:18:24.000the grandest Encyclopedia Britannica of all time. And you look up there, they have a section there on the
00:18:30.000Transvaal, which was the Boer Republic of the Zet Afrikaanser de Public that was taken over, occupied,
00:18:38.020militarily occupied by the British during the Second Anglo-Boer War. And the British conducted
00:18:44.500the first census in the Transvaal, in the ZAR. And they found the census figures, and I'm speaking,
00:18:52.100I'm speaking under correction, but I'm pretty sure the figures are close to this, that there were just
00:18:58.180under 300,000 Europeans in the Transvaal and about 690,000 Africans in the Transvaal in 1907.
00:19:08.820And if you look at the disproportionate population growth between 1907 and say 1990, which is not long,
00:19:16.500it's 80 something odd years. If you look at the disproportionate growth, you will find that by
00:19:21.1401990 there were, I think, 1.2 million Europeans, and I think in the region of 12 to 14 million Africans.
00:19:32.740Now, the population growth is exclusively due to the introduction of white medicine, white education,
00:19:43.460giving them jobs and giving them employment. In other words, artificially boosting their population.
00:19:48.680Now, this has happened all over Africa, and it's still going on. All this Doctors Without Borders and
00:19:54.240Live Aid and, you know, help the starving Ethiopians. What happens? Whites go over there,
00:20:00.520interfere with the natural nature's ordering of the population, and all of a sudden you've got these
00:20:06.880huge extra populations who are incapable of feeding themselves, incapable of organizing any agriculture,
00:20:13.600incapable, basically, of doing anything except breeding more. And whoops, now where are they all
00:20:19.720going to? Now they're pouring into Europe. And the same thing's happening in South and Latin America as
00:20:25.060well. And that's why you've got the problem in the U.S. Well, you know, where all this population,
00:20:31.040well, from Central and South America, where's it all coming from? It's simply they've been bred up by
