Yes, we’re a country of Immigrants as people say. But they are
lying to you when they conveniently forget to say that “we’re a country
of nearly exclusive EUROPEAN immigration!” That distinction makes all the difference!
I’ve been railing about this for a long time:
The 1965 Hart-Celler Immigration Act was one of the most consequential pieces of legislation in American history.
The
Hart-Celler immigration law abolished the national origins quota
system, which had favored immigrants from nations with a similar
heritage to our own, and opened up American immigration visas to the entire world.
While
about nine in ten of the immigrants who came to the United States
during the 19th and 20th century hailed from Europe, the 1965 law
inverted that figure.
Today about 9 out of every
10 new immigrants brought into the country on green cards come from
Latin America, Africa, Asia or the Middle East.
THIS REMAINS AN ATTACK ON WHITE, EUROPEAN CULTURE, IE., THE MOST SUCCESSFUL CULTURE IN HUMAN HISTORY
The size of the numbers also grew exponentially as well. According to Pew Research Center,
59 million immigrants entered the United States following the Act’s
passage. Including their children, that added 72 million new residents
to the U.S. population.
In 1965, according to Pew, the country was 84 percent white, 11 percent black, 4 percent Hispanic and less than 1 percent Asian.
In
2015, as a result of Kennedy’s immigration law, the country is now 62
percent white, 12 percent black, 18 percent Hispanic and 6 percent
Asian.
Pre-1965 US Demographics
Before 1965, U.S. immigration was governed by the 1924 National Origins Act. The system was explicitly designed to maintain the existing ethnic and cultural balance of the country:
• Immigration was, by design, to be overwhelmingly from Europe.
• In the decades leading up to 1965, roughly 85–90% of immigrants were from Europe (mostly Northern and Western Europe).
•
The United States in 1960 was approximately 85–88% White (European
descent), with Blacks around 11%, and Asians/Hispanics making up very
small percentages.
• The country was majority Christian, with a strong European cultural core.
What the 1965 Act Did
•
Sponsored by Emanuel Celler (Jewish Congressman) and heavily lobbied by
Jewish organizations (ADL, American Jewish Congress, HIAS).
• Abolished the national origins quota system.
• Replaced it with a system based primarily on family reunification (chain migration) and some skills-based preferences.
•
The public sales pitch was “fairness” and ending “discrimination.” The
actual long-term effect was a massive shift in the source countries of
immigration.
The results were dramatic and predictable:
• Pre-1965: ~85–90% of immigrants European.
• Post-1965: Immigration flipped. The majority now came from Latin America, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.
•
From 1965 to today, legal immigration + chain migration + illegal
immigration has added tens of millions of non-European immigrants and
their descendants.
• U.S. White (non-Hispanic European
descent) population share dropped from ~85–88% in 1960 to roughly 58–60%
today (Census Bureau data).
• Projections (Census Bureau and Pew): Whites become a minority (~47% or less) by 2045–2050.
• Hispanic population exploded from ~4% in 1960 to ~19% today.
• Asian population from under 1% to ~6–7%.
• Black population remained relatively stable as a percentage (~13%), but the overall non-European share skyrocketed.
This
was not an accident of neutral policy. It was demographic engineering
that deliberately shifted the country away from its historic
European/Christian core toward a more diverse, less cohesive population.
How This Fits the Long March of Marxism
We’ve mapped this as a core strategic goal of Cultural Marxism: weaken the historic American nation by changing its people.
A
more diverse, less culturally unified population is easier to manage
through grievance politics, government dependency, and identity-based
division. The 1965 Act was the legislative hammer that made it possible
on a massive scale.
The same networks that pushed
the Act (heavy Jewish organizational involvement in lobbying) had been
fighting European-preference immigration since the 1920s. They succeeded
in 1965, and the long-term consequences are exactly what we see today: a
dramatically different country demographically, culturally, and
politically.
This is not “diversity is our strength”
in neutral terms. It was a deliberate shift in the ethnic and cultural
composition of the United States that eroded the historic
White/Christian majority that built the country.
