No Need for Energy Poverty, by Derrick Hollie
It’s a popular theme—from Thomas Malthus to Paul R. Ehrlich to Thanos of Avengers fame: Only drastic action will avert catastrophe. We must consume less, accept less, be less. We’re warned in ever more strident terms that we must act now or in 12 years (or 10 years or 18 months) there ...
NY Times Rewrites History for New Trump Attack
When former special counsel Robert Mueller failed to deliver on the accusations of 2016 election collusion with Russia and bring an end to the Trump presidency, the New York Times appeared to quickly move to Plan B.

Liberal Celebs “Do Not Believe in Free Expression”
People in the 1940s and 50s who lost their ability to work in the entertainment industry because they were thought to be Soviet collaborators were called “blacklisted.” While many of the accused were far from innocent, the blacklisted of that era are venerated by Hollywood today. Yet those in our ...
Race, Revisionism, and The New York Times, by Adrian Norman
The New York Times recently launched the “1619 Project”—an initiative that, by the paper’s own admission, “aims to reframe the country’s history, understanding 1619 as our true founding, and placing the consequences of slavery and the contributions of black Americans at the very center of the story we tell ourselves ...
Messing’s Mess: Disturbing Tweet Accuses Black Conservatives of Mental Illness
When it came to her television show and its promotion of homosexual lifestyles, actress Debra Messing of the now-cancelled (for the second time) “Will and Grace” celebrated her “opportunity” to be “normalizing” the LGBT community. After all, homosexuals were once classified as mentally ill by the American Psychiatric Association. While ...
Price Controls a Poor Prescription for America’s Ills
In a new Townhall commentary, Project 21 Co-Chairman Stacy Washington explains how a Trump Administration proposal she suggests would impose “European-style price controls” on prescription drugs will force the President to retreat on his promise that “America will never be a socialist country.” “Fighting socialism with socialism,” Stacy writes, “will ...
Liberals’ Problematic Embrace of Socialism
Today's liberals are taking a huge left turn into socialism. Interestingly, as socialism fails in Europe, Venezuela and other places, American liberals are heartily embracing it. In a panel discussion on the Fox News Channel program “The Ingraham Angle,” Project 21 Co-Chairman Horace Cooper said this slide is encouraged by ...
Fascistic Antifa Protesters “Lack Decency and Morals”
"Protesting once meant something," writes Project 21 member Jerome Danner in a Western Free Press commentary. "It had value in and of itself. It once was a highly-valued strategy of thoughtful, goal-oriented individuals that desired to spark change, not only in the minds of men, but in their hearts." But with ...
Antifa’s Chaotic Display of Objections, by Jerome Danner
Protesting once meant something. It had value in and of itself. It once was a highly-valued strategy of thoughtful, goal-oriented individuals that desired to spark change, not only in the minds of men, but in their hearts. Think of Martin Luther King, Jr., or Gandhi: their brand of protest was ...

Socialism Isn’t the Solution to Unfair Drug Prices, by Stacy Washington
President Trump recently promised that "America will never be a socialist country" -- at least not while he's in office. But some members of his administration didn't get the memo. The Department of Health and Human Services still plans to impose socialist, European-style price controls on advanced drugs administered through ...
Reparations Ignores American Greatness for a “Socialist Payout”
When it comes to liberal demands for slavery reparations, Project 21 member Emery McClendon remarks: “Here we go again.” After all, slavery was abolished generations ago. Those directly involved in slavery died generations ago. Civil rights protections are the law of the land – widely respected and dutifully enforced. But ...
Cuomo’s “Fredo” Freak-Out Criticized by Black Activists
Project 21 Members Say Reference to "Godfather" Character Not Comparable to N-Word Washington, D.C. – As CNN personality Chris Cuomo tries to equate being called “Fredo” – the “weak brother” in “The Godfather” – with a black person being called the n-word, Project 21 members are criticizing him and CNN ...
Cuomo’s Comparing “Fredo” to N-Word Dumb, Not Smart
It may be regrettable that CNN personality Chris Cuomo was trolled on his personal time, but it’s outrageous that Cuomo would try to compare being called “Fredo” to a black person being called the n-word. And it is unforgivable for CNN to jump on the bandwagon to call it an ...
Blueprint Finds a Foothold in Ferguson

Root Causes of Rising Animosity Remain Unchecked
Our nation’s racial problems are “far more complicated than our leaders have grasped.” Project 21 member Dr. Carol M. Swain writes that “reckless accusations and misguided approaches” are “sowing seeds of division” in America. Tweets may be part of the problem, but calling President Donald Trump a white nationalist or ...
Hollywood Values Betray Moviegoers and Investors
Along with the liberal creations of a right to marry and a right to an abortion, liberal attorney Leo Terrell proclaimed on the Fox News Channel that “Hollywood has the right to make a movie.” While there is a right to free speech in America, and no true conservative wants that ...

Project 21: Path to Citizenship for People on Assistance is "Unfair" and "Insulting" to Working Poor Washington, D.C. – A new federal rule adding more scrutiny to the citizenship process for immigrants who have collected public assistance is applauded by the Project 21 black leadership network. “Acting Citizenship and Immigration ...
Ferguson Mayor on Project 21 Recommendations: “We Want to Do That”
When Project 21 Co-Chairman Stacy Washington left Ferguson City Hall, she fought the urge to indulge on barbeque. It was tough, because the downtown area of this Missouri city is awash in the enticing aroma of Red’s Bar-B-Q. Red’s once existed in many places in the St. Louis area. But ...
Black Conservatives Desire to Spark Change in Ferguson, by Jerome Danner
Five years ago, a small town by the name of Ferguson, Missouri, got national attention for the wrong reasons. The media flocked to the area after a police shooting, which resulted in the death of an African American young man by the name of Michael Brown, took place. When the ...
