On Genocide

By Nicholas Stix

My only disagreement with the linked item is in its author’s use of the term, “assimilation.”

“Assimilation” has a political history in this country of referring to a minority group’s adoption of the mainstream (i.e., white) cultural mores and norms. The writer here is using it more in the sense of a race permitting itself to be digested by other races.

Traditionally, in this country we have used the terms “amalgamation” and later, “miscegenation” to refer to interracial sexual congress and childbearing. The use of assimilation in their stead is not helpful.
