The White Man's Burden by Thomas Jackson

The article titled "The White Man’s Burden" by Thomas Jackson, originally published in American Renaissance in August 1992, discusses the concept of racial and national loyalty in the context of historical and contemporary ideologies. It references Charles Conant Josey’s 1923 book, The Philosophy of Nationalism, which explores the tension between white nations maintaining their cultural, national, and racial identities versus embracing internationalism and universal brotherhood.

Jackson highlights Josey’s argument that group loyalties—such as those based on race and nation—are essential for societal cohesion and moral clarity, and that the erosion of these loyalties, driven by individualism and internationalism, leads to moral chaos and the decline of Western culture.
The article critiques modern ideals of racial equivalence and global citizenship, suggesting they undermine the very foundations of national and racial solidarity that Josey believed were necessary for cultural survival.
