Honorable Dr. Kevin MacDonald, Professor at Long Beach State University, Long Beach, Ca.

Apparently totally blacked out by the local and national news media was the visit to Long Beach State University, Long Beach, Ca. by Heidi Beirich of the Southern Poverty Law Center in an effort to paint Professor MacDonald in hateful ugly terms and possibly get him fired.

Even a couple of LBSU departments have condemned him for his most professional, but unashamedly provocative writings about the history and his understanding of Jewish Influence in Intellectual and Politcal Movements.

Professor MacDonald has published a trilogy about this issue, A People Shall Dwell Alone-Judaism as a Group Evolutionary Strategy, 1994; Separation and its Discontents-Toward an Evolutionary Theory of Anti-Semitism, 1998, and The Culture of Critique-An Evolutionary Analysis of Jewish Involvement in Twentieth-Century Intellectual and Political Movement, 1998 as well as many papers and articles on the subject.

The LBSU student newspaper Daily 49er published a story about the SPLC visit in yesterdays 4/15/08 edition. You can go to:

There are many comments to the story, almost all favorable to Professor MacDonald. The below are examples of the comments. They are interesting, and were written by two open minded Jewish Americans.

The real "crime" of Dr. MacDonald is the fact that he wrote about a taboo subject in post-WWII American academia. Anyone, no matter their credentials, who writes about Jewish group behavior is automatically "anti-Semitic." It's preposterous!

What happened to the value and emphasis of detached historical views? This is a clear case of politicization of sociohistory.

As a Jewish professor I am appalled at the treatment of Dr. Kevin MacDonald. I have carefully read his three main works and find that his only crime is that he as a Gentile dares to put down what mainstream Jewish historians routinely write about, the fact that no people on earth are organized for their perceived agenda, than are Jews.

In America, they wield enormous power in the press, in politics and in academia. As Walt and Mearsheimer have shown, they are the most powerful lobby in America, bar none. They have been the biggest single reason why we are in Iraq catastrophe right now. This is not anti-Semitism, this is simple fact that major Jewish organizations boast about to their own constituecies.Look at the subservience of Clinton, McCain and Obama to this lobby.

Also look at the actions against Dr. MacDonald. The pro-Israel Jewish contingent has closed ranks on him. I have already spoken to non-Jewish professors who tell me they have been pressured to condemn the man even without reading his work! Is that academic freedom or open-mindedness?

Dr. MacDonal has even been compared to David Duke, yet even Dr. Duke is presented by media far differently than he actually expresses himself.

What has happened to MacDonald is strong evidence that what he said is absolutely correct. The Jewish group is closely knit (with some dissent like my own) and closes ranks on anyone who threatens its agenda or who simply dares to criticize its own ethnocentrism. Jewish intellectuals are the quickest group to condemn other people's racism or ethnocentrism, but can stand one quiet, intellectual professor who dares to point out the world's most powerful ethnic will to power.
