White American Culture

AMERICAN CULTURE IS ONE OF THE THINGS FOR which I am most proud of my race for producing. Today that culture is under attack by all sorts of political entities and hated by the jealous or ignorant, but let’s look at the wonderful aspects of American white culture. In 1950 the United States was well over 90 percent white. The members of any other race were an insignificant minority. What were the attributes of this American culture?

• It had law abiding citizens. In most areas of the country it was safe to leave the doors of your house unlocked. You could leave the keys to your car in the ignition without fear of the car being stolen. Children were taught to respect the policeman and the law. Children at school respected their teachers and usually the greatest crime that they would commit was throwing spit balls. You could walk on the streets at night, even if you were a woman, and be safe. Drugs were something that foreign countries had to deal with. The problems that parents had to deal with were fairly reflected by television programs like Leave It To Beaver, and The Andy Griffith Show. The flag was respected, as well as the office of the president. Americans had a great pride in their country and their government, which was relatively unintrusive and allowed the American people to be the most free of any people on earth.
  
  
• It had the best educational system on earth. American schools taught children how to read, write and do arithmetic. Students were taught to be proud of their country as well. When they had a high school diploma it meant that they had been educated. Morals were taught at home by a mother who was always home with the children and reinforced by the school, even with corporal punishment when required. Students went to school to learn. They were orderly and respectful to the teachers, who in turn, were worthy of that respect by promoting ethical behavior and providing a good example in their own lives. Girls were taught to be good homemakers and boys were taught to make a living to support their families. There was no such thing as an illiterate high school graduate.
  
  
• It was a society that was charitable above any other. No one in America starved to death, no matter how poor! No one! Americans gave a higher percentage of their income to charity than any other nation on earth. Charities routed those dollars to needed families three or four times more effectively than any government program could hope to. Every effort was made to help poor folks become self sufficient, which is the only way dignity can exist.
  
  
• It had citizens who did not willingly accept charity. An American child was brought up to be insulted by being offered charity. If a man had to take charity for his family he would, but a strong desire to “get back on his feet” was present. As soon as a job was available, a white American was out from under the disgrace of “accepting charity.” This is a laudable and excellent part of white American culture. You help those who are truly in need, and those in need do all that they can to pull themselves out of that need so the charity can cease.
  
  
• It had men and women who were firmly dedicated to their families. A man was not considered a man if he was not a faithful husband who provided for his family. He made sure that his children were obedient, law abiding and respectful of other people’s person and property. A woman would never think of sending her kids to day care or put a job ahead of her family. She worked together with other mothers in the neighborhood to ensure that the children had safe places to play, where they would always be supervised. If an accident happened, mother was ALWAYS available at home to run the child to the doctor’s. This firm commitment to the roles of husband and wife created strong families, which formed the building blocks of a strong neighborhood, state and nation.

Only you can prevent extinction!
