interview-Why should America embrace a failed social program like Multiculturalism and trash Melting Pot?
Jeans Hencke investigated examples of Multiculturalism across the ages and the globe to see if it ever benefits a nation. What he found was very disturbing: rather than unite people, Multiculturalism always divides them into angry camps. Why did the Aztecs fall? They didn't want to assimilate those they conquered, so when the Conquistadors arrived they found plenty of allies to fight the Aztec Empire. You'll be horrified to learn that the Rwandan Genocide occurred because the Belgian colonizers deliberately created enmity between the Tutsis and the Hutus. Happily, that has been overturned by citizens who declare "we are all Rwandans". The Roman Empire extended citizenship with its privileges to warriors they defeated in battle, making them proud Romans and eliminating insurrections. They used the Melting Pot to their advantage until AD 400 when they discarded it, and the barbarians sacked Rome because as non-Romans there was no motivation to NOT do it. America needs to heed the lessons of history and geography.
