By Selwyn Duke Alfred Dreyfus, Leo Frank, the Scottsboro Boys, Stefan Kiszko — legion are the cases of men being wrongly convicted, then exonerated. And now a question arises: Will the case of ex-cop Derek Chauvin, found guilty in 2021 of killing criminal George Floyd, someday be among them? The answer will be yes if…

By Selwyn Duke “Everybody, in all mainstream political parties and media … would laugh — laugh — about the word assimilation,” lamented journalist Mikael Jalving in 2014. It “is a Nazi word in Sweden [now]” What kind of people was Danish journalist Jalving talking about? A good example is Swedish multiculturalist Mona Sahlin. Commenting on…

By Selwyn Duke Reacting to invasion (im)migration trends years ago, Ambassador Alan Keyes put it bluntly. “We’re being colonized,” he said. And if ever there was proof of this, and the low quality of many post-1965 newcomers—and of the lie of “diversity”—it’s a viral video posted by one Wajahat Ali. Mr. Ali is a Pakistani-descent…

By Selwyn Duke It was in 2015 that Muslim refugee Dr. Mudar Zahran warned of the “soft Islamic conquest of the West.” Zahran was referring to the wave migration affecting Europe, which ultimately saw millions more Muslims enter the Continent. Now, a decade later, an ex-Muslim sounds the same alarm here in America. In fact,…

By Selwyn Duke “Skepticism has never lasted two generations,” said G.K. Chesterton in a 1931 debate with Scopes “Monkey Trial” lawyer Clarence Darrow. “The first generation laughs at the Bible,” goes a later elaboration on the idea. The “second questions the laughter; the third weeps because there is nothing left to laugh at.” And then,…

By Selwyn Duke Here’s a question: How much replication do we need in government? How many levels of government must we have doing the same thing — and sometimes conflicting with each other? How many captains should there be on a ship? This could come to mind when pondering, oh, let’s say, the United States…
