"A legacy of white colonialism"

Royal Mess
Focus, people, on Jamestown.
By Martin A. Davis Jr.

I'm surprised that paleos haven't written more about the 400th anniversary of the founding of Jamestown.

As Columbus Day has been downgraded or even replaced by Indigenous Peoples Day, and the "discovery" of the New World, and the consequent settlement by Europeans criticized by multiculturalists and leftists, is it surprising that this anniversary would be ignored by the MSM as well? No specials on any of the main commercial networks or PBS, though Terrence Malick's The New World was released in 2005. (How many people remember that movie?) The Anglo(-Celtic) identity of America has been greatly eroded over the past half-century, and there is no sign that it will return in any great strength.
