Defense of the race
In contemporary history, there is hardly a term that arouses as much emotion and fear as that of racism. None generates more infantilism and cowardice. No problem is more fatal or more provocative than the racial problem. And yet, the destiny of humanity depends only on a thorough examination of this problem and its one, only and indispensable solution.
It is true that the word racism has been overused, diverted from its true conception by dilettantes or maniacs, and one would think oneself well inspired to abandon it. So, we could replace the word “racism” with “racialism” in order to perhaps escape the bad press. But this would not protect us from further distortion and would add to the evil of our times (where the value and meaning of words have fallen into painful confusion), while proving our enemies right. Furthermore, this adaptation to the democratic environment would be suspect from more than one point of view. However, the most basic honesty requires rather that we restore the meaning of the word racism in its purity.
