Hello, @everyone.
Hope your week is going well. Mine has been crazy busy with the new house! Things are really starting to come together though!
Anyways, I was scheduled to work this Sunday, unfortunately. **We will be moving the discussion to Saturday night @ 7p EST.**
If this conflicts with your schedule, DM me and we will seek other solutions.
Thanks!
We'll be starting here shortly @everyone
Hello, @everyone.
Hope your week is going well and you're enjoying the holiday with loved ones! We're going to cancel the next book discussion on Rules For Radicals, and just finish the book with the last discussion at the end of the month.
Merry Christmas!!
Today we will begin reading White Identity by Jared Taylor. I will post a schedule soon.
We also have a special announcement to release later tonight. Keep your eyes open - you won't want to miss this one!
@everyone
@everyone We established this literature server with the goal of motivating members to expand their abilities to articulate and further develop our ideas and be effective activists.
One effective way to do this is to read literature by some of the greatest minds in politics and philosophy to study their rhetoric, learn new ideas, talking and tactics, and share what we learned with each other to make the most of the literature.
On February 10th, we will have the opportunity gain insight from one of the authors himself, one of the greatest minds in our movement, Jared Taylor.
This will be an opportunity to learn more about his motivations and experiences, and to gain further insights.
Jared Taylor will be interviewed here in our voice chat, followed by a Q&A session at 2:00 PM EST on February 10th.
<#407044817449779200> for White Identity has been posted. Talk to you all tomorrow night!

The ILC Team has created a new channel called <#542123221944893483>.
If you have a question for our guests, please submit it here. Once submitted, our team will add it to a list of questions we are collecting for the end Q&A. You will not be able to view posts in this channel. This protects the channel from clutter and unnecessary conversation that could be held elsewhere.
This process will be similar to YouTube "SuperChat" streams - but will obviously be free of charge.
In an attempt to answer all of your questions in a timely fashion, we will not offer questions that are similar to others or unrelated to the conversation. Questions may be submitted anytime during the conversation - it is encouraged to submit questions before the Q&A begins.
We will make an attempt to answer all legitimate questions, but cannot guarantee this due to time constraints.
Reminder, all IE national rules must be followed on official severs, including the ILC server.
If you have any questions at all, DM myself or a <@&393557365972271106>.

Where to find more from Mr. Taylor -
**THE JOURNALS OF LEWIS AND CLARK** has been voted our next Book Of The Month.
We will be reading the De Voto edition - which is a great collection of L&C, Jefferson, Gass, and various others journals/articles of the expedition.
You can purchase a copy here for $10.
https://www.amazon.com/Journals-Lewis-Clark-Expedition/dp/0395859964/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=
We will give members until next Sunday to purchase their copy. I will post a schedule soon.
@everyone
I know we are all good readers, but before you make any purchases on books, I always recommend checking out Archive.org It is my number 1 go to site for literature before I buy, because you can download a ton of the books we read there for free. Case in point: https://archive.org/details/originaljournals08lewi/page/n9 This is legal, so you don't have to worry about putting IE in jeopardy. @everyone
@everyone I've posted the interview as a private video on YouTube. This is only for IE members and trusted outsiders, so please ask before sharing.
@everyone I would like to take a moment to clarify what this server is for. Obviously it's for discussing "literature", but this raises the question of what counts as literature. It's not just books. Literature is any kind of written content requires some deeper thinking to enjoy.
**Books are obviously an example of literature**
**Articles can be literature**
A local news story isn't literature. A long form article or an article with original ideas and analyses in it is literature. Examples would be Counter Currents or The Occidental Observer.
**Speeches are literature**
The only difference compared to other forms of literature is that it's spoken. Speeches can be very insightful and serve the exact same purpose as long form articles. A speech has more in common with a short book than it does with a 10 minute Youtube video. So, if you heard an interesting speech, you should absolutely share it on this server.
Obviously what is and isn't literature is going to be subjective. So just use your best judgement. As long as you're posting in good faith you won't get in trouble.
Due to LOPF 2019 being this weekend, we will skip starting the BOTM this week and instead start it the following Sunday. I will post a schedule soon in <#407044817449779200>
