Readers! A November fund-raising drive!

 

It is unfortunately time for another November fund-raising campaign to support my work here at Behind the Black. I really dislike doing these, but 2025 is so far turning out to be a very poor year for donations and subscriptions, the worst since 2020. I very much need your support for this webpage to survive.

 

And I think I provide real value. Fifteen years ago I said SLS was garbage and should be cancelled. Almost a decade ago I said Orion was a lie and a bad idea. As early as 1998, long before almost anyone else, I predicted in my first book, Genesis: The Story of Apollo 8, that private enterprise and freedom would conquer the solar system, not government. Very early in the COVID panic and continuing throughout I noted that every policy put forth by the government (masks, social distancing, lockdowns, jab mandates) was wrong, misguided, and did more harm than good. In planetary science, while everyone else in the media still thinks Mars has no water, I have been reporting the real results from the orbiters now for more than five years, that Mars is in fact a planet largely covered with ice.

 

I could continue with numerous other examples. If you want to know what others will discover a decade hence, read what I write here at Behind the Black. And if you read my most recent book, Conscious Choice, you will find out what is going to happen in space in the next century.

 

 

This last claim might sound like hubris on my part, but I base it on my overall track record.

 

So please consider donating or subscribing to Behind the Black, either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. I could really use the support at this time. There are five ways of doing so:

 

1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.

 

2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation. Takes about a 10% cut.
 

3. A Paypal Donation or subscription, which takes about a 15% cut:

 

4. Donate by check. I get whatever you donate. Make the check payable to Robert Zimmerman and mail it to

You can also support me by buying one of my books, as noted in the boxes interspersed throughout the webpage or shown in the menu above.


Today’s blacklisted American: Seattle runs segregated critical race theory classes, teaching that whites are evil

Discriminated against in Seattle
Eagerly discriminated against in Seattle

“Segregation today, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever!” The city government of Seattle is funding a series of segregated critical race theory (CRT) seminars for its employees, with whites and blacks sent to different sessions, which then teach from these different perspectives that all whites are racist and evil and work to oppress blacks.

City staffers ‘who identify as people of color’ were invited to the three-hour ‘Internalized Racial Inferiority’ session on September 3, after it was organized by the city-funded Race and Social Justice Initiative (RSJI), revealed KTTH radio host Jason Rantz on Monday.

A similar sister session was offered exclusively to white workers, which taught attendees that they are ‘responsible’ for racism because of the color of their skin.

The lesson was billed as a way to explore ‘the process which American conditioning, socialization and history leads People of Color to internalize racialized beliefs, ideas and behaviors about themselves, undergirding the power of White Supremacy.’ It also outlined 10 ‘truths’ that must be accepted by city employees, which include, ‘colonialism is at the root of white supremacy,’ ‘Racism is based on the legal and social construction of whiteness’ and ‘Government has a responsibility to be anti-racist.’

Those ten truths, shown in seminar documents at the link, also specifically demand that blacks and American Indians be given special and favored treatment.

Essentially, these are Nazi-like courses designed to foster hate between the races, and encourage all to oppress whites. Worse, the racist 10 “truths” that form the heart of these seminars are all lies, based on nothing but Marxist propaganda.

For example, just because you claim that “colonialism is at the root of white supremacy” does not make it so, and in fact the claim is fundamentally wrong. The colonization of the western hemisphere had almost nothing to do with racism. While such evils sometimes manifested themselves, the fundamental reason Europeans came to the New World was to start a new life, for themselves. The settlers did not care what the indigenous peoples did, as long as those people left them alone. Sadly, the purposes and existence of the two often came in conflict. That the literate west always won those conflicts had nothing to do with racism but with the west’s superior technology, written languages, and more sophisticated legal frameworks, none of which where available to the native populations.

You could show the falsity of the other nine “truths” as well, merely by thinking about them for about ten seconds, rather than accepting them without question. All foster hate between ethnic and racial groups, not a more just society where everyone can live in peace and pursue their happiness freely.

This Seattle seminar is a good summary of what our academic and education communities are now teaching in all colleges, and are also trying to introduce to the public schools, with the willful help of some legislators and the disinterested apathy of most others. If ordinary Americans do not act now to stop the indoctrination of their children to this bigoted and very false ideology, the future of our country is guaranteed to be seeped in blood and genocide.

There is one ray of hope in this story. According to Rantz who broke the story, the seminars apparently were not accepted without question by their students.

Rantz reported that many Black employees, especially those within the police department, were ‘outraged and disgusted’ by the subject matter and ideologies being thrust upon city workers during these meetings.

We can only hope that the decent people of America everywhere will push back against the hatred now being forced on them by their so-called “intellectual betters.”

Genesis cover

On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.

 

The print edition can be purchased at Amazon or from any other book seller. If you want an autographed copy the price is $60 for the hardback and $45 for the paperback, plus $8 shipping for each. Go here for purchasing details. The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.


The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
 

"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

    The degree of hatred and evil in this country and in our educational systems, like so much pus from the infected minds of bigoted Leftists and race-baiters is discouraging and so anathema to our American way of life. However, since I am a proud Caucasian member of society, I have no valid voice and my longing to return to a time when we were all trying to see each other through color-blind glasses, and for the most part being successful is now considered racism by Leftists that are lusting after the destruction of this great nation.
    If Mr. Green New Deal Biden could, find a way to harness the potential power generated from Martin Luther King and the other true Civil Rights giants spinning in their graves…he might gain a few points in the polls. But I believe it may be too late for Joey Demento.

    We need some sort of national divorce. I share nothing in common with seattle and would have nothing to do with it.
