The White Man's Library: Race and Reason

from Radio Renaissance

Jared Taylor, Sam Dickson, and Paul Kersey discuss Carleton Putnam's "Race and Reason: A Yankee View." American Renaissance republished this 1961 classic in 2005 but the initial run sold out. Putnam served as CEO of Delta Airlines and sat on its board until his death in 1998. He wrote the book after seeing the horror of President Eisenhower sending US Troops to integrate Little Rock Public Schools in 1957. It's a spirited defense not of states' rights but of the biological differences between Europeans and Africans — as justification for separation. Nearly 70 years after its release, and despite trillions spent trying to eliminate racial disparities, the racial realities Putnam described have remained immutable.
