Mickey Newbury: A White American Voice

July 10, 2025/1 Comment/in Featured Articles/by Robert S. Griffin, Ph.D.

This is the third writing of mine in what’s looking as if it might become a series of sorts. Over the years, people from the past, historical figures, have jumped out to me and I’ve attended to them; they’d be persistently on my mind for a significant amount of time, say three-four days to a […]

A Commentary on the Movie “The Order”

June 21, 2025/24 Comments/in Featured Articles, White Racial Consciousness and Advocacy/by Robert S. Griffin, Ph.D.

Part One A movie that came out in 2024, The Order, caught my eye recently because it looked as if it had to do with a book I wrote, so I checked it out. The Order is about a real-life, six-eight member, racially committed white insurrectionist group in the northwestern U.S. called The Order led […]

About Nietzsche’s Maxim

March 12, 2025/8 Comments/in General/by Robert S. Griffin, Ph.D.

Just about everybody knows his maxim, “What doesn’t kill me makes me stronger.” Or at least some version of it, the wording varies from speaker to speaker. Sometimes the reference is “us” rather than “me”: the 1982 movie “Conan the Barbarian” […]

Prominent on the front page of the February 14th New York Times is a feature story—“14 MIN READ” it said (most articles are two to six minutes), nine pictures, billed as “The Great Read”– by Times’ opinion columnist Maureen Dowd called “Live From New York, It’s Lorne Michaels: The man who made ‘Saturday Night Live’ […]

The Hite Three

January 4, 2025/5 Comments/in Featured Articles, General/by Robert S. Griffin, Ph.D.

The Hite Three, as I call them, are three precepts, prescriptions, rules to live by, somewhere in there, that you might want to try out to see how they work for you. Hite refers to Shere Hite, a woman who was big in American life back in the 1970s and ‘80s. She came up with […]

Thoughts on the Election

November 8, 2024/5 Comments/in Featured Articles/by Robert S. Griffin, Ph.D.

I first titled this writing “Thoughts on the Presidential Election” but immediately realized I didn’t need the word “Presidential.” What other election is there? Come to think of it, that gets at the main point of this piece: to my way of thinking, this presidential election was far too big a show — to the […]
