White Names Purged Again

This is certainly not how the West was won; but then in California it’s long since been lost. They are moving with all deliberate speed to purge and cleanse the state of every last vestige of the White man who made the state the wonder of the world. If they get their way the White race in California will be little more than a rumor. In Sacramento, that paradigmatic White settler town, they now have abjured all of their great past. And with a remorseless anti-racist logic which sees in the creation of their city only the reprehensible actions of the founders, they are taking down some of our great names, purging them from their place of pride; and conferring the pride of place on themselves, our enemies.
“Three Sacramento schools are getting new names as part of a rebrand away from the racist historical California figures they were named after, the Sacramento City Unified School District said. SCUSD’s board voted Thursday (June 22 2023) to rename Sutter Middle School, Peter Burnett Elementary School and Kit Carson International Academy, with the three being schools viewed as having the most egregious school names. The schools were originally named for individuals who engaged in, perpetuated, and condoned racism, oppression, colonization and exclusion of others, and even genocide.”
Hallowed names rather, sacred names. These were the men who were the real founding fathers of America. We have seen how easy it was in the end to unravel what those theoretical Enlightenment figures did in Philadelphia. We can see that their words were written in water, as all words are. But these men did not hypothesize or burn the midnight oil studying ancient constitutions, no; rather they went out into the unknown world and made nothing less than a country. And they had done more than enough to secure their posterity’s future for all time. These are the ancestors we are supposed to worship and revere and remember; great icons to them should still be going up in eternal gratitude. Their stories and their legends and their lore should still fill the minds of White children in the little grades, hoping to emulate; their struggles and their travails should be met with silent awe; their victories cherished as ours.
“Sutter Middle School will be renamed Miwok Middle School in honor of the Miwok people who lived in the region when Europeans came to California. Peter Burnett will be renamed Suy:u Elementary, which is pronounced: suu you. Suy: u is the Miwok name for hawk. The name was inspired by recommendations from the school’s students and community members to call the school Red Tail Hawk Elementary. Kit Carson is being renamed Umoja International Academy in a tribute to the first principal of Kwanzaa.”
What a falling off is here; in addition to this being a travesty and a farce it’s also pure tragedy. To think that some no account and defeated Indians and, of all things, a tenet of a made up negro holiday, are being honored is one of the saddest things you hear. It’s as if this country wanted to uproot every connection to the roots which have nourished it, and replace it with an ersatz memory based on nothing. It’s true that the three White men we are considering were no humanitarians; their methods and practices were clear eyed and brutal. But this is only the story of life and to deny it is either dishonest or disingenuous. The only reason these Indians and these blacks who are getting the schools named after them are “victorious” is a fluke of fate; they happened to emerge just in the rotting phase of the White world when they found an exposed Achilles heel: guilt. This is a singular and heretofore unheard of kind of victory never found in history; and a most disgusting spectacle. It is worth noting that this principal of Umoja is “to secure the unity of the family, community, nation, and race.” Blacks and all other non-White people of course can proudly trumpet this; but for Whites it is verboten.
“Sac City Unified’s commitment to provide a quality education means we can no longer continue to perpetuate historical narratives that are shameful when held to scrutiny, Jorge A. Aguilar, the district’s superintendent, said in a statement. I am proud of the work that our district has done hand-in-hand with our community to better educate the public about why these name changes are needed. It is my hope that this action is found to be restorative, and the new identities of Miwok, Suy:u, and Umoja schools will be universally embraced by our students and families when they return this fall.”
A quick check of the census statistics tells a sorry tale: Sacramento is 40 percent White. And presumably that number is currently is free fall. And the upshot of this decimation is that someone named Aguilar rules the roost there and calls the shots. Of course he is not an American, he’s an invader. And so he gets to dictate historical narratives. They have their narrative: the red man was living peaceably on this continent, full of humanity and in tune with nature; then came the vicious White man with his guns and his diseases and his Manifest Destiny and wiped them all away which constitutes a crime, a war crime really, and a crime against humanity. For this we must pay. But we have a narrative too thoough it is not a tall tale and it’s not tale often told anymore. This continent was inhabited by a marginal people who were at an historical dead end. Living hand to mouth and stagnating they had no future worth speaking of. Then came the White man with his cunning and his courage and his art and his science and wiped them all away, thus creating out of nothing a flourishing marvel of a country, the most powerful Anglo Saxon nation ever known. The sad addendum is that we then threw it all away in an unaccountable fit of guilt, shame, and remorse.
“Sutter enslaved Native peoples by making war on local tribes, which provided him with a steady source of free labor for his enterprises as well as a source of income by which to reduce his debts through the sale of orphaned children. Some Miwok and Nisenan residents were drawn to Sutter’s trading post for security, but then after beginning working for him, the threat of violence prevented indigenous people from leaving, which meant their permanent enslavement.”
It was the mill of John Sutter which more than anything made California, put in on the map as a destination. In what was after all a sparsely inhabited far outpost of the world the gold found there caused the White man to pour in, and it is that, and nothing else, which made it a White state, staked the claim of the White world all the way to the Pacific. Naturally this awesome avalanche of White men into the region caused the diminishment of the way of life of the Indians; soon they were relegated to raiding the cattle ranches of the White man who, defending what he had won fair and square, brooked no red opposition. This natural outcome of course has earned him the opprobrium of the milksop modern era. But before the bowing began and the scraping started for his great feats there are numerous California landmarks bearing the name of Sutter. Sutter Street in San Francisco is named for John A. Sutter. Sutter's Landing, Sutterville Road, Sutter Middle School, Sutter's Mill School, The Sutterville Bend of the Sacramento River is named for Sutter, as is Sutter Health which is a non-profit health care system in Northern California. The City of Sutter Creek and Sutter, California are also named after him. But for how long?
“The section on Carson links the famous trapper and guide to the ambush of a village on the Sacramento River that killed several hundred people. Serving as Colonel John C. Frémont’s scout in California, in 1846 Kit Carson and Frémont’s men destroyed a village on the Sacramento River with artillery and rifle fire and then descended upon the village with swords, pistols, axes, and knives.”
Carson has always been recognized for his fearlessness, combat skills, tenacity, and profound effect on the westward expansion of the United States. Indeed he has become a legend. A mountain man, a trapper, an agent, a guide, a pioneer, a soldier, an Indian fighter, one of the men who wrested California from Mexico, the legendary symbol of America’s frontier experience, he was so famous popular novels were written about him. Of course a man with such an outsized and larger than life image became the subject of much iconography, statues were put up for him, and movies were made about him, geographical places bear his name. They even named a city after him. Now that his name is mud how long will any of these last?
“Burnett, California’s first governor, is noted for first becoming the supreme judge of Oregon’s territorial government and advocating for the total exclusion of all African Americans from the territory. He became known for authoring what was called Burnett’s lash law, which allowed the beating of any free Black people who refused to leave the territory.”
The incident that sticks in their craw today was when Burnett ordered the “infamous” extradition of Archy Lee, a former slave living in Sacramento, back to Mississippi. But what else was he to have done with him? Given him reparations and welfare? Burnett himself owned slaves but did not let that blind him to the future. He opposed California becoming a slave state and, indeed, wanted to keep California one hundred percent free of Africans. Many tend to forget that what the slogan “free soil” meant was nothing other than free of negros, it was the liberty of the White man they cherished not that of the blacks. Burnett declared in an 1851 speech that a war of extermination will continue to be waged between the races until the Indian becomes extinct. Efforts by federal negotiators to preserve some native land rights were fought by the administration of Burnett, who favored the elimination of California's indigenous peoples. That is he was die hard White man and wanted California to be for Whites only. No one else should darken our door. He was after all part of an uncompromising generation. When the time came he was a lead advocate for Chinese exclusion. He had his eye on the future and that future was White from the ground up.

They say that these names have been changed (from theirs to ours) to uplift the voices of the “natives”; but what will this voice say? What will it do? History is a guide and one needn’t hazard a guess: nothing on either score is the answer. The peoples who are now being celebrated have nothing to celebrate and never will. Their claim to fame is only that they have been plucked out of the dust heap of time and elevated by Jews: to bring down the White race. Having served their nefarious purpose the will be cast aside again with bewildering speed; from their ranks will never emerge the likes of John Sutter, Kit Carson, or Pete Burnett. And as such they deserve to perish.
For us it is not a question of merit; that has been time honored and time tested; not a question of merit but of will. It is the guilt that has been unjustly placed on us that has laid us low; too many of our kind have come to believe what no one has really ever believed before: that one does not have a right to survive, and prosper, and flourish above all else. And that there are no limits to the means by which one can achieve that. History is guide here; but having lost the will the transmission from our past to our future has been cut; they have retroactively criminalized our past; but the goal as always is to criminalize us even though no crime has been committed. And you can see this drama play out next fall when those brown kids show up at the Kwanzaa elementary and don’t learn a thing. It’s how the West was lost.
