- Great Replacement - Wikipedia
- The Great Replacement (French: grand remplacement), also known as the replacement theory,[1][2] is a white nationalist far-right[3] conspiracy theory[4][5][6] which states that, with the complicity or cooperation of "replacist" elites,[a][4][7] the white French population'--as well as white European population at large'--is being progressively replaced with non-European peoples'--specifically Arab, Berber and sub-Saharan Muslim populations from Africa and the Middle East'--through mass migration, demographic growth and a European drop in the birth rate.[4][8] Scholars have generally dismissed the claims of a "great replacement" as being rooted in a misreading of immigration statistics and unscientific, racist views.[9][10]
- While similar themes have characterized various far-right theories, the term "Great Replacement" was popularized by the French author Renaud Camus in his 2011 book Le Grand Remplacement (English: The Great Replacement). It specifically associated the presence of Muslims in France with potential danger and destruction of French culture and civilization. Camus and other conspiracy theorists attribute this process to intentional policies advanced by global and liberal elites (i.e., the "replacists") from within the Government of France, the European Union, or the United Nations, and describe it as a "genocide by substitution".[4]
- The "Great Replacement" is included in a larger white genocide conspiracy theory that has spread in Western far-right movements since the late 20th century.[3] Despite their common reference to a "genocide" of indigenous white peoples and a global plan led by a conspiring power, Camus's theory does not include an antisemitic Jewish plot. His removal of antisemitism from the original neo-Nazi conspiracy theory, along with his use of simple catch-all slogans, have been cited as reasons for its broader appeal.[11]
- Description [ edit ] The "Great Replacement'' theory was developed by French author Renaud Camus, initially in a 2010 book titled L'Ab(C)c(C)daire de l'in-nocence ("Abecedarium of no-harm"),[14] and the following year in an eponymous book, Le Grand Remplacement (introduction au remplacisme global).[b] Camus has claimed that the name Grand Remplacement "came to [him], almost by chance, perhaps in a more or less unconscious reference to the Grand D(C)rangement of the Acadians in the 18th century."[15] Commenting on the name, he has also declared that his theory was the "implementation in real life" of Bertolt Brecht's quip that the easiest thing to do for a government was to change the people had the people forfeited its confidence.[16]
- According to Camus, the "Great Replacement" has been nourished by "industrialisation", "despiritualisation" and "deculturation";[c][17][18] the materialistic society and globalism having created a "replaceable human, without any national, ethnic or cultural specificity",[19] what he labels "global replacism".[20] Camus claims that "the great replacement does not need a definition," as the term is not, in his views, a "concept" but rather a "phenomenon":[21]
- Renaud Camus, progenitor of the Great Replacement theory. March 2019
- A people was here, stable, had been occupying the same territory for fifteen or twenty centuries. And suddenly, very quickly, in one or two generations, one or several other peoples substitute themselves for him. He is replaced, it is not him anymore.
- In Camus's theory, the indigenous French people ("the replaced")[d][15] is described as being demographically replaced by non-European peoples'--mainly coming from Africa or the Middle East'--in a process of "peopling immigration" encouraged by a "replacist power".[a][4][22] According to French philosopher Pierre-Andr(C) Taguieff, the validity for using the term "conspiracy theory" to define Camus's concept indeed lies in the second part of the proposition:
- To [the theory of a replacement through mass immigration], that claims itself to be an observation or a description, is added in the "anti-replacist" vision a conspiracy theory which attributes to the "replacist" elites the desire to achieve the "Great Replacement". From the ideas of "peopling colonisation" and "mass immigration", "anti-replacists" went to that of a genocide by ethnic, racial and cultural substitution, involving the completion of a programme or an action plan.
- Camus frequently uses terms and concepts related to the period of Nazi-occupied France (1940''1945). He for instance labels "colonizers" or "Occupiers"[e] people of non-European descent who reside in Europe,[23][24] and dismisses what he calls the "replacist elites" as "collaborationist".[25] Camus founded in 2017 an organization named the National Council of European Resistance, in a self-evident reference to the World War II National Council of the Resistance (1943''1945).[26] This analogy to the French resistance against Nazism has been described as an implicit call to hatred, direct action or even violence against what Camus labels the "Occupiers; i.e. the immigrants".[25] Camus has also compared the Great Replacement and the so-called "genocide by substitution" of the European peoples to the genocide of the European Jews during World War II.[26]
- The Occupation provoked among the French, and especially among the resisters, a very intense feeling of hatred [...] Moreover this occupation was made of persons in uniforms [...] How could you not provoke, with such an analogy, a hatred that some will judge salutary towards any immigrant they will meet [...]? It appears to me contradictory on your side to say that you condemn hatred, while at the same time drawing inspiration from that incendiary analogy to describe our times.
- Origins [ edit ] Context [ edit ] Renaud Camus developed his conspiracy theory in two books published in 2010 and 2011, in the context of an increase in anti-immigrant rhetoric in public discourse during the previous decade.[27] Europe also experienced an escalation in Islamic terrorist attacks during the 2000s''2010s,[28] and a migrant crisis that began in 2015,[29] which participated in exacerbating tensions and preparing the public opinion for the reception of Camus's conspiracy theory.[7] As the latter depicts a population replacement said to occur in a short time lapse of one or two generations, the migrant crisis was particularly conducive to the spread of Camus's ideas'--even though France was not the main European country concerned with the migration flows'--while the terrorist attacks accelerated the construction of immigrants as an existential threat among those who shared such a worldview.[7]
- Camus's theme of a future demise of European culture and civilization also parallels a "cultural pessimistic" and anti-Islam trend among European intellectuals of the period, illustrated in several best-selling and straightforwardly titled books released during the 2010s: Thilo Sarrazin's Germany Abolishes Itself (2010), ric Zemmour's The French Suicide (2014) or Michel Houellebecq's Submission (2015).
- Claimed influences [ edit ] Renaud Camus cites two influential figures in the epilogue of his 2011 book The Great Replacement: British politician Enoch Powell's apocalyptic vision of future race relations'--expressed in his 1968 "Rivers of Blood" speech'--and French author Jean Raspail's depiction of the collapse of the West from an overwhelming "tidal wave" of Third World immigration, featured in his 1973 novel The Camp of the Saints.[11]
- Camus also declared to British magazine The Spectator in 2016 that a key to understanding the "Great Replacement" can be found in his 2002 book Du Sens.[33] In the latter he wrote that the words "France" and "French" equal a natural and physical reality rather than a legal one, in a cratylism similar to Charles Maurras's distinction between the "legal" and the "real country".[f][34] During the same interview, Camus mentioned that he began to imagine his conspiracy theory back in 1996, during the redaction of a guidebook on the department of H(C)rault, in the South of France: "I suddenly realized that in very old villages [...] the population had totally changed too [...] this is when I began to write like that."[33]
- Similar themes [ edit ] Despite its own singularities and concepts, the "Great Replacement" is encompassed in a larger and older "white genocide" conspiracy theory, popularized in the US by neo-Nazi David Lane in his 1995 White Genocide Manifesto, where he asserted that governments in Western countries were intending to turn white people into "extinct species".[36][37] The idea of a "replacement" of indigenous white people under the guidance of a hostile elite can be further traced back to pre-WWII antisemitic conspiracy theories which posited the existence of a Jewish plot to destroy Europe through miscegenation, especially in douard Drumont's antisemitic bestseller La France juive (1886). Commenting on this resemblance, historian Nicolas Lebourg and political scientist Jean-Yves Camus suggest that Camus's contribution was to replace the antisemitic elements with a clash of civilizations between Muslims and Europeans.[11]
- To succeed in their attack on Christian civilization, Jews in France had to deceive, lie, and take the disguises of free thinkers. If they had said frankly: "We want to destroy this ancient France, which was so glorious and beautiful, to replace it with the domination of a handful of Hebrews from all countries", our fathers, who were less softened than us, would not have let themselves be taken in.
- Maurice Barr¨s's nationalist writings of that period have also been noted in the ideological genealogy of the "Great Replacement", Barr¨s contending both in 1889 and in 1900 that a replacement of the native population under the combined effect of immigration and a decline in the birth rate was happening in France.[39] Scholars also highlight a modern similarity to European neo-fascist and neo-Nazi thinkers from the immediate post-war, especially Maurice Bard¨che, Ren(C) Binet and Gaston-Armand Amaudruz.[40][41] Influenced by Binet's 1950 Th(C)orie du Racisme[42]'--with its idea of an "interbreeding capitalism" aiming at creating a "uniform inhumanity"[43]'--French 1960s far-right movements such as Europe-Action used terms that echo Camus's concepts, labeling the Algerian immigration an "invasion", arguing that "systematic race mixing is nothing more than a slow genocide",[44] and fearing a future France "occupied by twenty million Maghrebi Arabs and twenty million Negro-Africans":[45][46]
- In France, the significant immigration of colored elements is a grave issue ['...]. We also know the size of the North African population [...]. What is serious for the future: we know that the basis of European settlement, which allowed for civilizing expansion, was that of a white ethnic group. The destruction of this balance, which can be quick, will lead to our disappearance and that of our civilization.
- The associated and more recent conspiracy theory of "Eurabia", published by British author Bat Ye'or in her 2005 eponymous book, is often cited as a probable inspiration for Camus's "Great Replacement".[47][48][49] Eurabia theory likewise involves globalist entities, that time led by both French and Arab powers, conspiring to Islamize Europe, with Muslims submerging the continent through immigration and higher birth rates.[50] The conspiracy theory also depicts immigrants as invaders or as a fifth column, invited to the continent by a corrupt political elite.[51][52] Scholars generally agree that, although he did not father the theme, Camus indeed coined the term "Great Replacement" as a slogan and concept, and eventually led it to its fame in the 2010s.[53][54]
- Analysis [ edit ] Demographic statistics [ edit ] While the ethnic demography of France has shifted as a result of post-WWII immigration, scholars have generally dismissed the claims of a "great replacement" as being rooted in an exaggeration of immigration statistics and unscientific, racially prejudiced views.[9] Demographer Landis MacKellar has said that around 5''10% of French residents were Muslims as of 2016, making a "replacement" unlikely, and criticized Camus's thesis for assuming "that third- and fourth- generation 'immigrants' are somehow not French."[10]
- Racial connotations [ edit ] In German discourse, Austrian political scientist Rainer Baub¶ck [de] questioned the conspiracy theorists' use of the terms "population replacement" or "exchange" ("Bev¶lkerungsaustausch"). Using Ruth Wodak's analysis that the slogan needs to be viewed in its historical context, Baub¶ck has concluded that the conspiracy theory is a reemergence of the Nazi ideology of Umvolkung ("ethnicity inversion").[55]
- In May 2019, political journalist Nick Cohen described the Great Replacement as a form of racism and propaganda, alongside a fear European men are not virile enough.[56] The same month, historian Anne Applebaum wrote that the conspiracy theory was used as a gateway from discussing the effects of immigration and Islam's compatibility with the Western world to forms of extremism, such as advocating for the "remigration" or the murder of migrants.[57]
- Popularity [ edit ] Camus's tract for his 2014 "day of anger" demonstration against the "great replacement": "No to the change of people and of civilization, no to antisemitism"
- The simplicity and use of catch-all slogans in Camus's formulations'--"you have one people, and in the space of a generation you have a different people"'-- as well as his removal of antisemitism from the original neo-Nazi "white genocide" conspiracy theory, have been cited as conducive to the popularity of the "Great Replacement".[11]
- In a survey led by Ifop in December 2018, 25% of the French subscribed to the conspiracy theory; as well as 46% of the responders who defined themselves as "Gilets Jaunes" (Yellow Vest protesters).[58] The theory has also become influential in far-right and white nationalist circles outside of France.[59]
- The conspiracy theory has been cited by Canadian far-right political activist Lauren Southern in a YouTube video of the same name released in July 2017. Southern's video had attracted in 2019 more than 670,000 viewers[60] and is credited with helping to popularize the conspiracy theory.[61] Counter-jihad Norwegian blogger Fjordman has also participated in spreading the theory.[62]
- Prominent right-wing extremist websites such as Gates of Vienna, Politically Incorrect, and Fdesouche have provided a platform for bloggers to diffuse and popularize the theory of the "Great Replacement".[63] Among its main promoters are also a wide-ranging network of loosely connected white nationalist movements, especially the Identitarian movement in Europe,[64] and other groups like PEGIDA in Germany.[65]
- Political influence [ edit ] Europe [ edit ] Austria [ edit ] Identit¤re Bewegung sterreich (IB), the Austrian branch of the Identitarian movement, promotes this theory, citing a "great exchange"[g] or replacement of the population that supposedly needs to be reversed.[66] In April 2019, Heinz-Christian Strache campaigning for his FP party ahead of the 2019 European Parliament election endorsed the conspiracy theory.[67] Claiming that "population replacement" in Austria was a real threat, he stated that "We don't want to become a minority in our own country".[68] Compatriot Martin Sellner, who also supports the theory, celebrated Strache's political use of the Great Replacement.[69][70]
- Belgium [ edit ] In September 2018, Schild & Vrienden [nl] , an extremist Flemish youth organization, were reported to be endorsing the conspiracy theory. The group, claiming that native populations of Europe were being replaced by migrants; they proposed an end to all immigration, forced deportation of non-whites, and the founding of ethnostates.[71] The following month, VRT detailed how the organization was discussing the Great Replacement on secretive chat channels, and using the conspiracy theory to promote Flemish ethnic identity.[72]
- In March 2019, Flemish nationalist Dries Van Langenhove of the Vlaams Belang party, repeatedly stated that the Flemish people were "being replaced" in Belgium, posting claims on social media which endorsed the Great Replacement theory.[73][74]
- Denmark [ edit ] Use of the Great Replacement (Danish: Store Udskiftning) conspiracy theory has become common in right-wing Danish political rhetoric. In April 2019, Rasmus Paludan, leader of the Hard Line party, which is widely associated with the Great Replacement,[75] claimed that by the year 2040 ethnic Danish people would be a minority in Denmark, having been outnumbered by Muslims and their descendants.[76] During a debate for the 2019 European Parliament elections, Rasmus used the concept to justify a proposal to ban Muslim immigration and deport all Islamic residents from the country, in what Le Monde described as Rasmus "preaching the 'great replacement theory'".[77]
- In June 2019, Pia Kj...rsgaard invoked the conspiracy theory while serving as Speaker of the Danish Parliament. After the alleged encouragement of Muslim communities to "vote red", for the Social Democrats; Kj...rsgaard asked "What will happen? A replacement of the Danish people?".[76]
- France [ edit ] Much of the European spread of the Great Replacement (French: Grand Remplacement) conspiracy theory rhetoric is due to its prevalence in French national discourse and media. Nationalist right-wing groups in France have asserted that there is an ongoing "Islamo-substitution" of the indigenous French population, associating the presence of Muslims in France with potential danger and destruction of French culture and civilization.[78][79][80]
- In 2011, Marine Le Pen evoked the theory, claiming that France's "adversaries" were waging a moral and economic war on the country, apparently "to deliver it to submersion by an organized replacement of our population".[81] In 2013, historian Dominique Venner's suicide in Notre-Dame de Paris, in which he left a note outlining the "crime of the replacement of our people" is reported to have inspired the far-right Iliade Institute's main ideological tenet of the Great Replacement.[82] Referring to the conspiracy theory, Marine Le Pen publicly praised Venner, claiming that his "last gesture, eminently political, was to try to awaken the French people".[81]
- In 2015, Guillaume Faye gave a speech at the Swedish Army Museum in Stockholm, in which he claimed there were three societal things being used against Europeans to carry out a supposed Great Replacement: abortion, homosexuality and immigration. He asserted that Muslims were replacing white people by using birthrates as a demographic weapon.[83]
- In June 2017, a BuzzFeed investigation revealed three National Front candidates subscribing to the conspiracy theory ahead of the legislative elections.[84] These included Senator St(C)phane Ravier's personal assistant, who claimed the Great Replacement had already started in France.[85] Publishing an image of blonde girl next to the caption "Say no to white genocide", Ravier's aide politically charged the concept further, writing "the National Front or the invasion".[86]
- By September 2018, in a meeting at Fr(C)jus, Marine Le Pen closely echoed Great Replacement rhetoric. Speaking of France, she declared that "never in the history of mankind, have we seen a society that organizes an irreversible submersion" that would eventually cause French society to "disappear by dilution or substitution, its culture and way of life".[81] Former National Assembly delegate Marion Mar(C)chal, who is a junior member of the political Le Pen family, is also a proponent of the theory.[87] In March 2019, in a trip to the U.S., Mar(C)chal evoked the theory, stating "I don't want France to become a land of Islam".[88] Insisting that the Great Replacement was "not absurd", she declared the "indigenous French" people, apparently in danger of being a minority by 2040, now wanted their "country back".[89]
- National Rally's serving president Marine Le Pen, who is the aunt of Mar(C)chal, has been heavily influenced by the Great Replacement. FAZ newspaper has described the conspiracy theory creator Renaud Camus as Le Pen's "whisperer".[90] In May 2019, National Rally spokesman Jordan Bardella was reported to use the conspiracy theory during a televised debate with Nathalie Loiseau, after he argued that France must "turn off the tap" from the demographic bomb of African immigration into the country.[91]
- In June 2019, ric Zemmour pushed the concept in comparison to the Kosovo War, claiming "In 1900, there were 90% Serbs and 10% Muslims in Kosovo, in 1990 there were 90% Muslims and 10% Serbs, then there was war and the independence of Kosovo".[92] Zemmour, author of The French Suicide, has repeatedly described "the progressive replacement, over a few decades, of the historic population of our country by immigrants, the vast majority of them non-European".[93] Later that month, Marion Mar(C)chal joined Zemmour in invoking the Great Replacement in relation to the Balkan region, stating "I do not want my France to become Kosovo" and declared that the changing demographics of France "threatens us" ("nous menace") and that this was increasingly clear.[92]
- Germany [ edit ] SPD politician Thilo Sarrazin is reported to be one of the most influential promoters of the Great Replacement, having published several books on the subject, some of which, such as Germany Abolishes Itself, are in high circulation.[75] Sarrazin has proposed that there are too many immigrants in Germany, and that they supposedly have lower IQs than Germans. Regarding the demographics of Germany, he has claimed that in a century ethnic Germans will drop in number to 25 million, in 200 years to eight million and in 300 years: three million.[75]
- In May 2016, Alternative for Germany (German: Alternative f¼r Deutschland, AfD) deputy leader Beatrix von Storch co-opted and distorted the meaning of a 2001 United Nations report titled "Replacement migration", which focused on how to manage the replenishment of the population of eight low-fertility countries (France, Germany, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Russia, U.K. and U.S.), in order to push the theory.[94] Storch claimed that a mass population exchange ("Massenaustausch der Bev¶lkerung") had been planned by the UN since the publication of the report.[95]
- In April 2017, a few months before he assumed the leadership of the AfD, Alexander Gauland released a press statement regarding the issue of family reunification for refugees, in which he claimed that "Population exchange in Germany is running at full speed".[90][95] In October 2018, following Beatrix von Storch's lead, Bundestag member Petr Bystron said the Global Compact for Migration was part of the conspiracy to bring about systemic population change in Germany.[95]
- In March 2019, Vice Germany reported how AfD MP Harald Laatsch [de] attempted to justify and assign blame for the Christchurch mosque shootings, in relation to his "The Great Exchange"[g] theory, by asserting that the shooter's actions were driven by "overpopulation" from immigrants and "climate protection" against them. Laatsch also claimed that the climate movement, who he labelled "climate panic propagators", had a "shared responsibility" for the massacre, and singled out child activist Greta Thunberg.[94]
- Similarly, right-wing publicist Martin Lichtmesz [de] denied that either Anders Behring Breivik's 2011 manifesto, which referred to the Eurabia variant of the "white genocide" narrative, or Brenton Tarrant's 2019 The Great Replacement manifesto, had any connection to the theory. Claiming that it was, in fact, not a conspiracy theory at all, Lichtmesz said both Breivik and Tarrant were reacting to a real phenomenon; a "historically unique experiment" of a "Great Exchange"[g] of people.[94]
- Hungary [ edit ] Prime Minister Viktor Orbn and his political party Fidesz in Hungary have been associated with the conspiracy theory over the course of several years.[96][97] The Sydney Morning Herald detailed Orbn's belief in and promotion of the Great Replacement as being central to the modern right-wing politics of Europe. In December 2018, he claimed the "Christian identity of Europe" needed saving, and labelled refugees traveling to Europe as "Muslim invaders".[89]
- He has stated: "In all of Europe there are fewer and fewer children, and the answer of the West is migration," concluding that "We Hungarians have a different way of thinking. Instead of just numbers, we want Hungarian children." ThinkProgress described the comments as pushing a version of the theory.[98] In April 2019, Radio New Zealand published insight that Orban's plans to cut taxes for large Hungarian families could be linked with fears of the Great Replacement.[99]
- Italy [ edit ] Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini of Italy has repeatedly adopted the theme of the Great Replacement.[96] In May 2016, two years before his election to office, he claimed "ethnic replacement is underway" in Italy in an interview with Sky TG24. Accusing nameless, well-funded organizations for importing workers that he named "farm slaves", he stated that there was a "lucrative attempt at genocide" of Italians.[100][101]
- The Netherlands [ edit ] In April 2015, writing on the publishing website GeenStijl, scholar of Islam Hans Jansen used Great Replacement rhetoric, suggesting that it was an "undisputed" fact that among the European Union's governing elite there was a common consensus that Europeans were "no good and can be better replaced".[102] In May 2015, Martin Bosma a Dutch parliament Representative for the Party for Freedom (PVV), released his book Minority in their own land [nl] . Invoking the conspiracy theory, Bosma wrote about a growing 'a new population' of immigrants which lent itself to an apparently 'post-racial Multicultural State of Salvation'.[102]
- By September 2015, it was reported that the two right-wing political parties Christian Democratic Appeal and the Reformed Political Party had distanced themselves from the ideology of the Great Replacement.[103] In March 2017, Thierry Baudet, founder and leader of the right wing Forum for Democracy (FvD) party, was said to promote the theory after he claimed that the country's so-called elite were deliberately "homeopathically diluting" the Dutch population, in a speech about "national self-hatred". He said there was a plot to racially mix the ethnic Dutch with "all the people of the world", so that there would "never be a Dutchman again".[102]
- In January 2018, PVV Representative Martin Bosma endorsed the Great Replacement theory, and one of its key propagators, after meeting with Renaud Camus at a PVV demonstration in Rotterdam and tweeting his support. Filip Dewinter, a leading member of the Flemish secessionist Vlaams Belang party, who had traveled to the Netherlands on the day of the protest to meet with Camus, named him as a "visionary man" to the media.[104]
- Party for Freedom politician Geert Wilders of the Netherlands strongly supports the notion of a Great Replacement occurring in Europe.[105][106] In October 2018, Wilders invoked the conspiracy theory, claiming the Netherlands was "being replaced with mass immigration from non-western Islamic countries" and Rotterdam being "the port of Eurabia". He claimed 77 million, mainly Islamic immigrants would attempt to enter Europe over the course of half a century, and that white Europeans would cease to exist unless they were stopped.[89] In 2019, The New York Times reported how Camus's demographic-based alarmist theories help fuel Wilders and his Party for Freedom's nativist campaigning.[2]
- In September 2018, Dutch author Paul Scheffer analyzed the Great Replacement and its political developments, suggesting that Forum for Democracy and Party for Freedom were forming policy regarding the demography of the Netherlands through the lens of the conspiracy theory.[107]
- United Kingdom [ edit ] In July 2019, English musician Billy Bragg criticized the Great Replacement, calling it a "racist creed" that was "being promoted so effectively by the far right that it is entering mainstream political discourse".[108] Releasing a public statement which accused fellow singer-songwriter Morrissey of endorsing the theory, he drew attention to an Institute for Strategic Dialogue report on far-right extremism. Bragg suggested "that Morrissey is helping to spread this idea'--which inspired the Christchurch mosque murderer'--is beyond doubt". He proposed that fans of Morrissey, attempting to separate his music from his political views, were potentially "helping propagate" the conspiracy theory further. Bragg included American musician Brandon Flowers in his assertions, who had days before said Morrissey was "still a king" in spite of his public support for the far right For Britain Movement.[109]
- North America [ edit ] Canada [ edit ] YouTuber Lauren Southern of Canada is an advocate of the conspiracy theory.[89][110] In 2017, Southern dedicated a video to the Great Replacement, gaining over half a million views on her channel.[111][112] 2018 mayoral candidate for Toronto Faith Goldy has publicly embraced the replacement theory.[113][114] In 2019, in the aftermath of the Christchurch mosque shootings in Christchurch, New Zealand, Vice accused Goldy of routinely pushing the same ideas of birthrate declines and the population replacement of whites, found in the gunman's The Great Replacement manifesto.[115] Long-time white nationalist Paul Fromm when he co-opted the pre-1967 Red Ensign flag of Canada referred to it as "the flag of the true Canada, the European Canada before the treasonous European replacement schemes brought in by the 1965 immigration policies".[116]
- In June 2019, columnist Lindsay Shepherd claimed that "whites are becoming a minority" in the West, describing her assertion as "population replacement".[117] She was criticized by Canadian MP Colin Fraser at a House of Commons justice committee for not denouncing the concept,[118] while Nathaniel Erskine-Smith accused Shepherd of openly embracing the conspiracy theory.[119]
- United States [ edit ] In 2017, white supremacist protesters at the Unite The Right Rally in Charlottesville, Virginia used slogans that alluded to similar ideas of ethnic replacement, such as "You will not replace us" and "Jews will not replace us".[121][122] After that event, Camus told Vox that he did not support violence, and disputed any association between his ideas and neo-Nazis; however, he said he approved of the feeling behind the chant.[59]
- In October 2018, Republican congressman Steve King endorsed the conspiracy theory,[123][124] stating: "Great replacement, yes," referring to the European migrant crisis that "these people walking into Europe by ethnic migration, 80 percent are young men."[125] King presents the Great Replacement as a shared concern of Europe and the United States, claiming that "if we continue to abort our babies and import a replacement for them in the form of young violent men, we are supplanting our culture, our civilization."[126] He has blamed George Soros as an alleged perpetrator behind the conspiracy.[127]
- In May 2019, Florida State Senator Dennis Baxley was reported to use the replacement theory in relation to the abortion debate in the United States.[128][129] Speaking of Western European birthrates as a warning to Americans, he said: "When you get a birth rate less than 2 percent, that society is disappearing, and it's being replaced by folks that come behind them and immigrate, don't wish to assimilate into that society and they do believe in having children."[130] The following month, Nick Isgro, deputy leader of the Maine Republican Party endorsed the conspiracy theory after claiming financial subsidies were promoted for abortions in the U.S. to "kill our own people", and that asylum seekers were "human pawns who are being played in a game by global elites and their partners here in Augusta." Greg Kesich, a writer for the Portland Press Herald, reported that the current Mayor of Waterville's speech displayed the sentiment of the Great Replacement.[131]
- In July 2019, Keith Ellison, the Attorney General of Minnesota, stated how increasing and varied hate crime, exacerbated by the 2016 Brexit vote and election of Donald Trump, was "united by so-called "replacement" theory", and that communities needed to "vigilantly and consistently counter each of these acts of violence and expressions of hate".[132] At the same time, Mick Davis, the Chief Executive and Treasurer of the Conservative Party, published his outrage of the concept. Writing in The Jewish Chronicle, Davis named the Great Replacement, "a driving force behind far right terror", as worse than merely a conspiracy theory, in that it was "profoundly antisemitic".[133]
- According to the Institute for Strategic Dialogue's, US president Donald Trump has referenced the Great Replacement and a 2019 tweet in favour of his proposed Border Wall was interpreted by many as endorsing the theory. They also stated that Trump's Twitter account was one of the most influential accounts promoting the theory.[134] His history of describing Muslims and migrants as "invaders", according to SBS News, closely mirrors the language of explicit supporters of the theory.[96]
- Oceania [ edit ] Australia [ edit ] The media in Australia have covered Senator Fraser Anning of Queensland and his endorsement of the Great Replacement conspiracy theory.[135] In April 2019, Reuters reported how Anning was amplifying replacement theory by suggesting that Muslims would "out-breed us very quickly".[136] In May 2019, Anning alleged that White Australians would "fast become a minority" if they did not defend their "ethno-cultural identity".[137]
- Influence on white nationalist terrorism [ edit ] Implicit call to violence [ edit ] Camus's use of strong terms like "colonization" and "Occupiers"[e] to label non-European immigrants and their children[23][24] have been described as implicit calls to violence.[25] Scholars like Jean-Yves Camus have argued that the "Great Replacement" conspiracy theory closely parallels the concept of "remigration", an euphemistic term for the forced deportation of non-white immigrants.[14] "We shall not leave Europe, we shall make Africa leave Europe," Camus wrote in 2019 to define his political agenda for the European parliament elections.[24] He has also used another euphemism, the "Great Repatriation", to refer to remigration.[h][138]
- According to historians Nicolas Bancel and Pascal Blanchard, along with sociologist Ahmed Boubeker, "the announcement of a civil war is implicit in the theory of the 'great replacement' [...] This thesis is extreme'--and so simplistic that it can be understood by anyone'--because it validates a racial definition of the nation." Sceptical of Camus's description of second or third generation immigrants as being itself a contradiction in terms'--"they do not migrate anymore, they are French"'--demographer Herv(C) Le Bras is also critical of their designation as a fifth column in France or an "internal enemy".[139]
- Inspired attacks [ edit ] Fears of the white race's extinction, and replacement theory in particular, have been cited by several accused perpetrators of mass shootings between 2018 and 2019. While Camus has stated his own philosophy is a nonviolent one, analysts including Heidi Beirich of the Southern Poverty Law Center say the idea of white genocide has "undoubtedly influenced" American white supremacists, potentially leading to violence.[140]
- In October 2018, a gunman killed 11 people and injured 6 in an attack on the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The gunman believed Jews were deliberately importing non-white immigrants into the United States as part of a conspiracy against the white race.[141][142]
- Brenton Harrison Tarrant, the Australia-born terrorist responsible for the mass shootings at Al Noor Mosque and Linwood Islamic Centre in Christchurch, New Zealand on 15 March 2019, that killed 51 people and injured 49, named his manifesto The Great Replacement, a reference to Camus's book.[23][143] In response, Camus condemned violence while reaffirming his desire for a "counter-revolt" against an increase in nonwhite populations.[23]
- In 2019, research by the Institute for Strategic Dialogue showed over 24,000 social media mentions of the Great Replacement in the month before the Christchurch shootings, in comparison to just 3,431 mentions in April 2012. The use of the term spiked in April 2019 after the Christchurch mosque shootings.[144]
- Patrick Crusius, the suspect in the 2019 El Paso shooting, posted an online manifesto titled The Inconvenient Truth alluding to the "great replacement"[140] and expressing support for "the Christchurch shooter" minutes before the attack.[145] It spoke of a "Hispanic invasion of Texas" leading to "cultural and ethnic replacement" as justifications for the shooting.[140][143][145]

As for the grand replacement, this has been widely seen as a paranoid fantasy, which plays fast and loose with the statistics, is racist in that it classes as immigrants people actually born in France, glosses over the fact that around half of immigrants are from other European countries, and suggests that declining indigenous France will be outbred by Muslim newcomers when in fact it has the highest fertility rate in Western Europe, and not because of immigration. ^ a b MacKellar, Landis (2016).

- Kamala Harris regrets California truancy law that led to arrest of some parents - Los Angeles Times
- Kamala Harris, who has made her prosecutorial record a centerpiece of her presidential bid, said she now has misgivings about a California law she championed that punished parents of habitually truant schoolchildren.
- Speaking on the liberal podcast ''Pod Save America,'' Sen. Harris said the arrests and, in some cases, jail sentences of parents in multiple California counties were an ''unintended consequence'' of the statewide law, which built on her tough-on-truancy approach as San Francisco district attorney.
- The interview, released on Wednesday, marks the first sign of remorse from Harris about the anti-truancy effort, a signature cause throughout her career that she had steadfastly defended on the campaign trail. Her contrition reflects the difficult politics of running in a Democratic presidential primary as a career prosecutor at a time of widespread discontent within the party about racial disparities in law enforcement.
- ''I just think the whole concept of 'progressive prosecutor' is going to strike a lot of people as an oxymoron,'' said Garry South, a veteran Democratic strategist who is unaligned in the presidential race.
- Harris has cast herself as a pioneer of reformist criminal justice, promoting social programs that aimed to keep first-time offenders from falling into a life of crime. But her background as a prosecutor has provided fodder for skeptics, particularly on the left.
- When Harris was a district attorney, it was more common to approach social problems with the threat of incarceration, but voters now ''are far more attuned to criminal justice as an issue of civil rights,'' said Hadar Aviram, a law professor at UC Hastings College of the Law.
- Harris' crusade on truancy has been particularly fraught.
- As San Francisco district attorney from 2004 to 2011, Harris issued citations to parents whose children missed more than 50 days of school, but none of them were put in jail. She called truancy a public safety issue, saying high school dropouts had a higher chance of winding up as victims or perpetrators of crimes. Each year, she sent a letter to every San Francisco parent of public school students, warning them of potential prosecution for truancy.
- During her 2010 campaign for state attorney general, Harris explained her focus on chronic school absences.
- ''I believe that a child going without an education is tantamount to a crime,'' Harris said in a speech to the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. ''So I decided I was going to start prosecuting parents for truancy. Well, this was a little controversial in San Francisco.
- ''And frankly my staff went bananas,'' she recounted with a laugh. ''They were very concerned, because we didn't know at the time whether I was going to have an opponent in my reelection race.''
- ''I have a huge stick'' as a prosecutor to get kids in school, Harris said. ''The school district has a carrot '-- let's work in tandem.''
- Harris took that advocacy statewide, sponsoring a 2010 law to make it a misdemeanor for parents whose young children miss more than 10% of school days a year without a valid excuse. Parents could be punished with a maximum $2,000 fine, up to a year in county jail or both. Violators of the law could defer judgment by participating in regular meetings with school officials and improving their children's attendance.
- ''With children missing significant amounts of time from kindergarten, first grade, second grade, and no one paying attention or doing anything about it, we were seeing 8-year-old kids having their futures carved into stone '-- which was just tragic,'' said Mark Leno, who wrote the bill when he was a Democratic state senator from San Francisco.
- Former Assemblyman Tom Ammiano, another San Francisco Democrat and a former public school teacher, voted against the bill because he believed it wouldn't address the problem.
- ''It was a stinker of a law,'' Ammiano said.
- Kamala Harris was shaped by the crucible of San Francisco politics >>
- Harris and her allies have said the law's purpose was to prod school districts to provide resources to families of truant children, not to lock up parents. But the Huffington Post reported that several counties in California arrested, charged and sometimes jailed parents under the law backed by Harris.
- In the ''Pod Save America'' interview, Harris distanced herself from that approach.
- ''My regret is that I have now heard stories where, in some jurisdictions, DAs have criminalized the parents. And I regret that that has happened,'' she said. ''And the thought that anything that I did could have led to that, because that certainly was not the intention '-- never was the intention. Never was the intention.''
- Leno echoed that sentiment, saying the law explicitly stated that ''before law enforcement can use this new misdemeanor, every available attention must be brought to the student and the student families. Everyone must join hands to find a way to get this child to class.''
- Robert Dempsie, an assistant district attorney in Tulare County, said he recalled Harris twice presenting the truancy law at meetings of the state district attorney's association. She recommended imprisonment for truancy only in the most extreme cases, he said.
- Dempsie said he could recall three parents charged under the law in his county; all the cases were settled without jail time. Still, he said, prosecutors could pursue jail time in circumstances ''when the school district is doing what it can to assist the parents but the parents are doing nothing in return.''
- Kamala Harris releases 15 years of tax returns >>
- Ammiano, who is supporting Harris' rival Bernie Sanders in the Democratic primary, said he saw progress in her show of remorse. But he disagreed that harsh punishments for parents were an unforeseen outcome of the law.
- ''That is a cop-out,'' he said. ''You can't say, 'I didn't really mean for this to happen.' Then what did you mean?''
- Aviram of UC Hastings noted the law's good intention of keeping kids in school, but said the jailing of parents should come as no surprise.
- ''This was approached as a criminal justice problem, so it's not such a shocker that it has criminal justice consequences,'' she said. ''There are all kinds of ways to do this without threatening punishment.''

- Algorithms of Oppression [ edit ] Noble's first book, Algorithms of Oppression, was published by NYU Press in 2018 and has been globally reviewed in journals such as the Los Angeles Reviews of Books and featured in the New York Public Library 2018 Best Books for Adults.[19][20] It considers how bias against people of color is embedded into supposedly neutral search engines.[20] It explores how racism, especially anti-blackness, is generated and maintained by the internet.[21][22] In it, Noble is greatly concerned with looking at the ways the Black community is commercialized in powerful technological companies. She focuses on companies like Google and Facebook and how their algorithms ''black-box'' information, e.g. when a search term is entered, it is unclear how results for the search are derived. Noble's work calls attention to a system that reproduces marginalization. Her hope is to end social injustice and change the perceptions of marginalized people in technology.[23] She blogged about "Digital Infrastructures of Race and Gender" at the Fotomuseum in Zurich's online platform.[24] She has also given talks and interviews about Algorithms of Oppression.[25][26][27][28][29][30][31]

- Alice Marie Johnson - Wikipedia
- Born ( 1955-05-30 ) May 30, 1955 (age 65) [1]NationalityAmericanCriminal penaltyLife without paroleCriminal statusReleased on parole after clemency grantedAlice Marie Johnson (born May 30, 1955)[1] is an American criminal justice reform advocate and former federal prisoner. Johnson was convicted in 1996 for her involvement in a Memphis cocaine trafficking organization and sentenced to life imprisonment. In June 2018, after serving 21 years in prison, Johnson was released from the Federal Correctional Institution, Aliceville, after President Donald Trump commuted her sentence (at the request of Kim Kardashian).
- Early life, crime, and sentence [ edit ] Johnson was born in Mississippi, and her memoirs recount growing up as one of nine children of sharecroppers, becoming pregnant as a sophomore in high school, and later working as a secretary.[2] At the time of her arrest, Johnson was a single mother of five children.[3]
- Johnson told Mic in 2017 that she had become involved in the drug trade after she had lost her job at FedEx, where she had worked for ten years, due to a gambling addiction; this was followed by a divorce and the loss of her youngest son in a motorcycle accident.[4]
- According to a profile in Mic, Johnson filed for bankruptcy in 1991, and foreclosure of her house followed.[5]
- Johnson was arrested in 1993 and convicted in 1996 of eight federal criminal counts relating to her involvement in a Memphis, Tennessee-based cocaine trafficking organization.[3] In addition to drug conspiracy counts, Johnson was convicted of money laundering and structuring, the latter crime because of her purchase of a house with a down payment structured to avoid hitting a $10,000 reporting threshold.[3] The Memphis operation involved over a dozen individuals.[6] The indictment, which named 16 defendants,[7] described Johnson as a leader in a multi-million dollar cocaine ring, and detailed dozens of drug transactions and deliveries.[8] Evidence presented at trial showed that the Memphis operation was connected to Colombian drug dealers based in Texas.[9] Johnson was sentenced to life imprisonment without parole in 1997. At the sentencing hearing, U.S. District Judge Julia Gibbons said that Johnson was "the quintessential entrepreneur" in an operation that dealt in 2,000 to 3,000 kilograms of cocaine, with a "very significant" impact on the community.[9] Co-defendants Curtis McDonald and Jerlean McNeil were sentenced to life and 19 years in federal prison, respectively.[9] A number of other co-defendants who testified against Johnson received sentences between probation and 10 years.[3] Following her conviction, Johnson acknowledged that she was an intermediary in the drug trafficking organization, but said she did not actually make deals or sell drugs.[10]
- Imprisonment [ edit ] Johnson became a grandmother and great-grandmother while imprisoned.[3] She exhibited good behavior in prison.[11]
- In a memoir written after her release, Johnson wrote that she served time at the Federal Medical Center, Carswell, the federal prison hospital in Texas, where she became a certified hospice worker, and was subsequently transferred to FCI Aliceville to be closer to family.[12] In letters supporting her bid for clemency, staff members at FCI Aliceville wrote that Johnson did not commit any disciplinary infractions during her incarceration at FCI Aliceville.[13] Johnson participated in a pilot program, introduced in 2016 by Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates, that provided videoconferencing access to certain female federal prisoners.[14] The program allowed the online publication Mic to record a video interview with Johnson that went viral and brought Johnson's cause to public attention.[14] According to a profile from Johnson, she also used Skype while imprisoned to speak at Hunter College, Yale, and other audiences.[15] During her time in prison, Johnson became an ordained minister, and credited her grant of clemency to divine intervention.[16]
- Commutation and release [ edit ] A campaign in support of her release was launched by the American Civil Liberties Union and the website Mic; activists who supported her release argued that the punishment was excessive and an example of disproportionate impacts on African-Americans.[3] A number of individuals and organizations supported Johnson's bid for clemency, including U.S. Representatives Steve Cohen, Bennie Thompson, and Marc Veasey, law professors Marc Morj(C) Howard and Shon Hopwood, and Orange is the New Black author Piper Kerman.[17] According to her lawyer Shawn Holley, the warden supported her release.[10]
- Johnson's was one of the 16,776 petitions filed in the Obama administration's 2014 clemency project.[11] In 2016, she wrote an op-ed for CNN asking for forgiveness and a second chance.[18] Her application was denied just before Obama left office. In 2018, Kim Kardashian and President Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner sought to persuade Trump to grant clemency to Johnson.[11] In late May 2018, Kardashian met with the President in the Oval Office to urge him to pardon Johnson.[19] On June 6, 2018, following Kardashian's appeal, Trump commuted Johnson's sentence,[3] and Johnson was released.[8] The commutation was one of a series of acts of clemency made by Trump in a "few high-profile cases brought to him by associates and allies."[3] The Washington Post ' s Wonkblog described the pardon as somewhat surprising given Trump's past statements in favor of executing drug dealers.[20]
- When Trump delivered his State of the Union address on February 5, 2019, Johnson was a guest of the president. Trump asked Johnson to stand up to be recognized, and Johnson received a standing ovation from members of Congress.[21]
- Memoir and activism [ edit ] Since her release, Johnson has become an advocate for criminal justice reform in the United States, often invoking her personal experience. The month after her release, in July 2018, she called for an end to mandatory sentencing.[22] In September 2019, she met with Governor Bill Lee of Tennessee to promote greater access to expungement and prisoner education and reduction in barriers to reentry, and to express concerns about the cash bail system.[23]
- Johnson also advocates for the inclusion of female voices in the conversation around criminal justice reform. [24] Ahead of International Women's Day 2019, UN Women featured Johnson's story as part of its "Courage to Question" series.[25]
- In May 2019, memoirs written by Johnson with Nancy French, entitled After Life: My Journey From Incarceration To Freedom, were published by HarperCollins, with a foreword written by Kim Kardashian West.[2][12] A Kirkus review of the autobiography described the work as "A moving, inspirational story that makes a powerful argument for sentencing reform."[2]

But this watershed moment in our democracy excluded millions of women, including women of color, from the ballot box for generations. The reality is suffrage remains a work in progress for many in this country, particularly women living in states where voter suppression exists and tens of thousands of transgender Americans who face barriers to voting.
- Today, women make up more than half of the American electorate and are more engaged than ever in our politics '-- marching on state capitols, voting at higher rates than men, and running for local office and seeking the presidency in record numbers. Yet they remain underrepresented in government and in the nation's executive ranks. Women and gender diverse people are also underrepresented in politics and policy journalism and in newsroom leadership, which influences what stories are told, how the news is covered and whose voices are elevated.
- Number of women who voted in 2016 '-- nearly 10 million more than men
- Seats in Congress held by women in 2020
- Percentage of state legislators who are women of color
- Number of transgender people who could be turned away at the polls in 2020 because they lack an ID to vote
- In short: The 19th Amendment remains unfinished business, a fact we acknowledge in our logo with an asterisk '-- a visible reminder of those who have been omitted from our democracy. The expansion of the franchise continues today, and The 19th aims to capture this ongoing American story.
- Our goal is to empower those we serve '-- particularly women, people of color, and those historically underserved by American media '-- with the information, resources and community they need to be equal participants in our democracy. We will do this through:
- Free-to-consume and free-to-republish journalism that reimagines politics and policy coverage through a gender lens.Deep-dive, evidence-based reporting that exposes gender inequity and injustice, and reveals surprising and original stories on the issues that most deeply affect women's lives, from health care to the economy.A digital platform for civil conversations and community building, and national events that bring our readers into direct contact with their elected officials.A newsroom that reflects the racial, ideological, socioeconomic and gender diversity of American voters, and is devoted to covering everyone with empathy.Here's what you won't find at The 19th: Cheap shots or cheerleading. Opinion or false equivalency. Partisanship. Horse-race politics. Turn-of-the-screw stories. Clickbait. (Sorry, not sorry.)
- How We're FundedThe 19th is a nonprofit newsroom supported by a mix of membership, philanthropy and corporate underwriting. Our goal is long-term sustainability to support a lasting future for news and information at the intersection of gender, politics and policy.
- All of the money we raise goes back into our journalism '-- and we list all donors and corporate sponsors who've given $1,000 or more on our website. Any donor or sponsor at this level who's mentioned in a story will be identified in that story.
- Donors and sponsors don't get a thumb on the scale; they play no role in our journalism, in our storytelling or in the planning and execution of our events.
- Our ValuesThe 19th aims to be a source of news and information for all women, with a special emphasis on those who have been underserved by and underrepresented in American media. Among our values:
- Our reporting will be rooted in facts, data, evidence and excellence. It will be nonpartisan, but won't peddle both sides-ism. It will aim to advance human rights, civil rights, racial justice and gender equity through storytelling that exposes disparities and empathizes with the lived experiences of those we cover. Our journalism '-- and our staff '-- will strive to reflect the nation's racial, ideological, socioeconomic and gender diversity.Our readers will be our community; we don't believe in one-way conversations, and engaging with our audience is in our DNA. We believe in constructive and civil dialogue '-- and that kindness is the best starting point.
