Douglas Todd: Reducing immigration to protect culture is racism at its finest

The following text is an opinion column that follows a structural composition of a Pastiche. The style  is inspired by the writer Douglas Todd as I contradict his opinion and standpoint on immigration within America. This pastiche is juxtaposed to the use of rhetoric and the racist style that Todd's unravels his ideas within. I chose to write through a contrasting style in order to address this issue through dynamic conventions of style that enable myself to express my opinion yet, follow his style. This is ironic because, although this is crafted through his style, I am still able to reinforce my values and beliefs that ultimately contradict his. I chose to identify this opinion column as it is a controversial topic that delves into the realm of politics, making this the most suitable text to base my pastiche on.

Douglas Todd: Reducing immigration to protect culture is racism at its finest:

White supremacy is seen as a product of white superiority, ultimately leading to the sub cautious discrimination of ethnic minority groups. These issues can combine to kindle great anger, hatred and division between groups. Scholars coined the term: “White hegemony” in order to address the rising issue of superiority that puts pressure towards inferior groups. This dominance can be traced back since the beginning of time. Slavery, World war and important agreements like the Sykes Picot agreement are all just several events that had lead to the apparent cultural division today. This creates a sense of patriotism, developing an allusion of dominance. With dominance, the White Man is able to implement this motif of Euro centralization that puts pressure on other colored groups. Groups coming from Latin are forced to reshape their thoughts and belief system for the sake of conforming to the dominant race. Whether these minority groups conform or not, the groups are still discriminated regardless of their political, social and economic standpoint. This is due to the development of division from the sub-cautious mind that creates this instant boundary. Such subliminal bias does not happen in one night, rather, it is a constant depiction of manipulative images that distort the way certain groups are marginalized or depicted.

By tackling this issue peacefully through diplomatic clauses, we will be able to use our first world power for the benefit of our nation, and the diversification of our economy. Unfortunately, there is a distinct correlation between issues like safety and crime with minority groups. This means that this led to the establishment of immigration laws that have been politically implemented by the Western government seems to raise tension.

A Vancouver-raised demographer has discovered that people of good will or any intellectual from across the globe would have an identical definition of Racism. The term is coined as: “Prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that ones race is more superior.”  There agreement should lead to often a balancing perspective in order to flourish the coexistence of empowerment within ethnic minority groups, including: Mexicans and Colombians. Fascinating research by Prof. Eric Kaufmann of the University of London, Birkbeck, breaks new ground showing the harmonious ways people in 18 countries understand the hyper-charged term, racist.

With the federal Liberal government announcing they are attempting to show support towards these minority ethnical groups in order to increase immigration rates, they believe it is the “existence of both these cultures”, in order to sustain such a effective yet, diverse community. This would fulfill the needs and expectations of the West as a whole since this group would add value to not only increasing employment rate, but also GDP and literacy rates. Most of these minority groups have families to provide shelter and healthcare to, meaning addressing this issue is like addressing two birds with one stone. Ending discrimination will support our countries wealth and the minority group’s vast opportunities as well.

His research grew out of an article by Brookings Institutions Shadi Hamid, in which Hamid contend white “racial self-interest” as an effect on euro centralization due to the suppression put against minority groups. This should not be ignored, and should be considered as the key to our countries success and sustainability. Ladies and gentlemen, do not fear the shadows of the darkness that establish this ultimate ethnic division between on another. But rather, face it with all the courage you have. Alas, this bias must be worn-out in order to further end discriminations for the sake of weakening extreme white nationalism.

As Kaufmanns research sheds light on immigration values conflicts that are triggering the West, it is important to note the positive co-existence of all ethnicities that we should champion. By doing so, we will be able to strive to fulfill our socially politically motives like a freedom and equality. Kaufmanns findings also might illuminate how Westerners should approach immigration trends, such as those reveals last week in Census Canada, which portrays how whites should not be considered a minority in the metropolises of Toronto and Vancouver. For example just because another ethnic group is expanding, does not mean that the white population has declined.

In a nutshell, the Kaufmann believes that people are considered racist if they want less immigration for ethno cultural reasons.
