Western Civilization Undone By Marxist Multiculturalism?

A.J. Castellitto * The Western Center for Journalism

It certainly looks that way. Let’s consider the prophetic words of Samuel Huntington, from his 1996 book ‘The Clash of Civilizations’ -

Historically, American national identity has defined culturally by the heritage of Western civilization and politically by by the principles of the American Creed on which Americans overwhelmingly agree: liberty, democracy, individualism, equality before the law, constitutionalism, private property, In the late 20th century, both components of American identity have come under concentrated and sustained onslaught from a small but influential number of intellectuals and publicists. In the name of multiculturalism, they have attacked the identification of he United States with Western civilization, denied the existence of a common American culture, and promoted racial, ethnic, and other subnational cultural identities and groupings.

The pride and opportunity of American citizenship has given way to a multi-cultural bias fueled by agenda-driven progressives. A complete anti-US sentiment, heavy on loathing and resentment, has developed into a prominent belief system right here in our own country.

They have denounced, in the words of one of their reports, “systematic bias toward European culture and its derivatives” in education and “the dominance of the European-American monocultural perspective.” The multiculturalists are, as Arthur Schlesinger, Jr. has said, “very often ethnocentric separatists who see little in Western heritage other than Western crimes.” Their “mood is one of divesting Americans of the sinful European inheritance and seeking redemptive infusions from non-Western cultures.”

American ideals, principles, and beliefs have been dismantled as the external bias has found its way into our schools, our politics, and our culture. Instead of embracing even the slightest form of American exceptionalism, we have allowed the enemy to overemphasize and perseverate our ‘national sins’ and hammer away on the ‘need for transformation.’ As a result, we are desperately resisting treasonous efforts to ‘throw the baby out with the bath water.’
