D'Souza claimed the Democratic Party 'created white nationalism, and in a sense they've also created black nationalism.'
Conservative commentator Dinesh D'Souza appeared on Fox News Thursday and claimed that black and Latino Americans, along with the Democratic Party, are ultimately to blame for white nationalism in the U.S.
But D’Souza—who in the past has mocked survivors of school shootings and dismissed American human rights abuses in Iraq—said Abrams is painting a “a very benign picture of what this identity politics.” “Black nationalism and Latino nationalism is likely to give rise to a revived form of white nationalism,” he claimed. D’Souza did not specify what black or Latino nationalist groups or individuals he was referring to.
Instead, the president is developing a “decent American nationalism in which all groups are given an opportunity and a chance to move up.” But the ideology of nationalism is an inherently exclusionary one, and history shows the ideology's follies despite the president’s attempts to normalize it. D’Souza then pivoted to a favored far-right talking point—that white nationalism was employed by the Democratic Party after the Civil War to shore up its support base in the southern states. “They created white nationalism, and in a sense they've also created black nationalism.”
