Second generation ethnic minorities make ‘remarkable progress’ in work

Ethnic minorities have gained greater equality in the job market over the past 30 years, according to new research. Second generation minorities, especially men of black Caribbean, Indian and Pakistani heritage, are succeeding in ways their parents could only dream of, a study by Dr Yaojun Li, from Birmingham University, and Professor Anthony Heath, from Oxford University, found.

They are much more likely to gain access to professional and managerial jobs, according to the research, presented to the Royal Geographical Society’s annual conference yesterday.

However, the fortunes of men of black African origins are still very polarised. Although now more likely to be in professional and managerial jobs than white British men, with a large proportion - about 40 per cent - holding these positions, they were also more likely to be unemployed with one in five being out of work.

Indian men are now just as likely as their white British counterparts to hold prestigious positions. But black Caribbean, Pakistani and Bangladeshi men were still less likely to achieve high status jobs, and were more likely to be unemployed and be in unskilled jobs than white British men.

“Even though several ethnic minority groups are still disadvantaged, there has been remarkable progress,” Dr Li said. He said that through the 1980s and early 1990s, black Caribbean, black African, Pakistani and Bangladeshi men were consistently more likely to be unemployed. However, since the mid-1990s the differences had been significantly reduced.

And now, please cast your eye over this, from BBC News:-

Jail office moves for ‘diversity’

Prison service leaders are being criticised amid claims they are relocating an office from Corby because the town is too white.

One of the factors behind the centre moving from Corby to Leicester, with the loss of 90 jobs, is because the city boasts a “diverse workforce”.

... Crown House has handled prison contracts for catering, transport and prisoner escorts for more than 30 years.

Staff do not yet know when their jobs will end.

Almost 94% of the population in Corby are white British, compared with just under 60% in Leicester.

A Prison Service Spokesman said: “The potential sale of the property has given Her Majesty’s Prison Service the opportunity to look at what provides the best option for the Prison Service and therefore the taxpayer in the medium to longer term.

“The key factors that influenced our decision to relocate to Leicester were the closer proximity to a greater number of prison establishments, better transport links, the ability to recruit professional staff and the ability to attract a more diverse workforce.”

Dr Tomislav Sunic’s new book, Homo Americanus is finally available at Amazon, price $15.99.

I will be reviewing it in the next couple of weeks.  But I can tell you now that it argues the case for equivalency between Homo sovieticus and Homo americanus in every respect save one - where the former failed the test of time the latter has succeeded, but the answer to what succeeds him may be nothing.

American readers will be challenged by this portrait of American culture and Personality.  But the honest reader will recognise its truths, and close the book a wiser man.

If you hire Mexicans to work your land, your family will become landless and probably lose its life in a war coming to your area.

The only way out of this is to turn in those you are conspiring with and even then you will not escape with the land which you held in economic stewardship for the people of the US.

In the Scotsman an ICM poll has revealed the continuing hardening of SNP support and the softening of Labour’s.  The speculative scenario I suggested on January 13th - an SNP government in May, a carried vote on independence in 2010, followed by the grisly death of the Labour Party nationally - is coming ever closer to fruition.

From the Scotsman:-

Under the poll results, Labour would have too few MSPs to form a coalition with the Liberal Democrats and would have to try to rule as a minority government or patch together an unlikely coalition with the smaller parties to get into government again.

Translated into seats, the poll would give the SNP 44 to Labour’s 41 - a major turnaround on 2003, giving the SNP 17 more seats than they won then and Labour nine fewer.

The Liberal Democrats would also see a big improvement, with 23 MSPs gaining an extra six seats on the 17 they won in 2003, while the Conservatives would be down slightly, with 17 seats, not the 18 they won in 2003.

According to the poll, the SNP is in line to win 34 per cent on the constituency vote, up 1 per cent on last month, and 32 per cent on the regional vote, down 1 per cent.

The Scotsman still predicts a minority Labour administration.  But there is a grim 70-day slog ahead of Blair and McConnell, in which they can only lose more ground.  The potential for a highly significant moment in Britain’s political history is decidedly there.

A few days ago my attention was drawn to Aaron Russo’s free upload to Google Video of his blockbuster documentary, America: Freedom to Fascism.  Whatever you think of the film itself, and the ten or twelve major issues it covers, it is one hell of a piece of propaganda.  It is immensely thought-provoking and entertaining throughout.  It is courageous, too - even when, as in Russo’s case, you have the IRS after you with $2 million dollars of leins in their bony hands.

Russo is a blunt, engaging fellow, if a little flaky.  He likes to tell the world that his past producing successors, Herp Alpert style, “included” Trading Places (a good earner but 1983!) and The Rose (Midler and it was all the way back in 1979!!).  He claims that AF2F premiered in Cannes, meaning we should think it was screened at Cannes.  Actually, he rented a portable system and showed the film to small audiences on the beach.

But never mind.  Because Russo is also extremely determined.  AF2F lays into the arcanery of the Federal Reserve’s founding with a will.  It questions the real whereabouts of the Fort Knox gold, the legality of Federal Income Tax, the massive abuse of power by the IRS (of course), the independence of judges (except those on the Supreme Court) and of Congress (except Ron Paul), and even open borders.  He socks it to the banking giants and politicians of yesterday, the New World Order of tomorrow, the planned National ID Card, and the frighteningly versatile Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology.  Along the way he gets threatened by a very reluctant and sinister spokeman for the Federal Reserve.  “You understand Yiddish don’t you,” this character says, and spits out a few funny words.  Aaron duly explains to us that he said, “No one will help you.”

A few weeks ago a suggestion was made on one of the threads that it might of value to build up a record of personal awakenings.  Today one of our friends from RD offered an account of his own experience.  In the hope, then, that this will spark a series of such accounts I will create a new category, Awakenings, and invite anyone who has a story to tell to mail me.  Now here’s Sean’s story.

For me, the two great questions of the day are:

(1) how the European-derived peoples are to awake to their own ethnicity, and

(2) how they come to understand that one key problem to their development and safety is posed by the Semitic peoples.

This essay is about the second of the two questions and may be fairly described as how is recognition of this peril to be managed? Is it broad-based deep theory that appeals to the intellect, or some kind of simple, but shattering, event with unsuspected emotional-based, conversion-like attributes?

We argue that it is the shattering event that overturns an emotional state that leads to recognition of the Semitic peoples as dangerous to our development. This is partly true because so much of the discourse around us is dominated by Semitic personalities promoting an untrue line of propaganda, but the good news is that unraveling of any thread in that propaganda may trigger an awakening.

Here are brief sketches of two such awakenings.

My Awakening

As a pre-WWII baby I had many opportunities to become aware of the influence of the Semitic peoples on our cultures.  I saw aged Jews like Barnard Baruch lionized with pictures on the pages of the daily paper my family subscribed to in which Baruch was described as a “park bench advisor to presidents.”  I remember wondering about it from the age of perhaps 13, although it was never questioned or discussed at home or school.

I remember reading bizarre weekly letters-to-the-editor published in the county weekly paper in our Minnesota rural town from a mysterious California resident, Herbert Aptheker.  I remember wondering about the letters that appeared so frequently and expressed such hatred against America, although his doctrines and ideas were never questioned or discussed at home or school.

The Times (UK)

Wendy Duncan and her husband Brian are white. Nineteen months ago, the Lincolnshire housewife gave birth to a beautiful, healthy, Indian daughter.

Freya, brown-skinned and dark-eyed, is not a medical miracle after a long and fruitless quest through IVF and adoption, but the product of a booming industry in India that is offering embryos for adoption.
[…]
Couples such as the Duncans are lining up to be treated. Their experience was so successful that they are returning next week to the Bombay fertility clinic that produced Freya, to try for a second child.
[…]
The Duncans had no qualms about bearing a child of a different race. They are Freya’s natural birth parents and legal guardians in British law.

“To us colour is not an issue. I already have a mixed-race daughter, whose father is Arab, from a previous relationship,” Mrs Duncan said. “Lots of people say you would never think Freya wasn’t ours. She is so like me, it is unbelievable. She should have been a redhead - she has the temperament.”

Keep in mind “Freya” is the Norse goddess of fertility.  The depths of hostility toward their ancestors inculcated by their academic and media indoctrination is exemplary of the hostility of those those institutions to the host people and is sufficient to justify destroying the civilization supporting such indoctrination systems.
