From my new column in Taki’s Magazine:

What’s the Matter With Wisconsin?

August 17, 2016

The celebrated Black Lives Matter movement chalked up another riot over the weekend, this time in Milwaukee.A black cop shot an armed black criminal and much passive-voice news reporting ensued. … A beauty salon was stripped of its hair extensions and then torched.

… To calm tensions, the dead man’s sister went before the cameras and called for peace in the black community in a memorable speech:

“Burnin’ down shit ain’t going to help nothin’! Y’all burnin’ down shit we need in our community. Take that shit to the suburbs. Burn that shit down! We need our shit! We need our weaves. [Pause] I don’t wear it. But we need it.”

The respectable press edited the sister’s lament that “We need our weaves” down to “Don’t bring violence here.”

The mainstream media quickly followed up with many think pieces trying to explain exactly what nastiness the seemingly nice white people of Wisconsin had committed that forces Milwaukee blacks to behave so badly.
