Understanding how these differences impact on the controversial issues of culture and multiculturalism goes a long way towards discovering a solution to many problems facing a so-called \u2018multi-cultural\u2019 West.<\/p>\n<p>From the origins of a unique <strong>British-American<\/strong> relationship, to the impacting events of recent Western history, Salim guides us on a historical path rarely traveled.  He paints the picture that identifies multiculturalism as a central force driving a myriad of contemporary political issues including: immigration and migration, climate change, media censorship, sexuality and gender, and of course, the threat of socialism and communism.<\/p>\n<p>With the continued <strong>ascendancy of the Left<\/strong> in the West, any efforts to strengthen the Anglosphere have a long way to go before things turn in the direction that is Just Right; they will demand an eternal vigilance throughout the rest of a history yet to be written.<\/p>\n<p>If you found this presentation valuable please consider supporting us:<br \/>\n&#x1f9e1;PayPal:  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.me\/justrightmedia\">https:\/\/www.paypal.me\/justrightmedia<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/\/www.justrightmedia.org\/blog\/618-topics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/www.justrightmedia.org\/images\/buttons\/topics.gif\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\/\/www.justrightmedia.org\/blog\/618-clips-credits\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/www.justrightmedia.org\/images\/buttons\/clips_and_credits.gif\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>National Post columnist Conrad Black has suggested that U.S. president Donald Trump and British Prime Minister Boris Johnson will work together to &#8220;strengthen the Anglosphere, the most positive force in world affairs for 200 years.&#8221; It&#8217;s an effort supported by our guest Salim Mansur (professor emeritus of political science at Western University) who joins us <a href='https:\/\/justrightmedia.org\/blog\/archives\/10298' class='excerpt-more'>[Continue Reading]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":10300,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12,62,111,28,6,598],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10298","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-audio","category-culture-society","category-governance","category-latest","category-politics","category-society","issues-anglosphere","issues-culture","issues-multiculturalism","issues-western-culture","guests-salim-mansur","category-12-id","category-62-id","category-111-id","category-28-id","category-6-id","category-598-id","post-seq-1","post-parity-odd","meta-position-corners","fix"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/justrightmedia.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10298","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/justrightmedia.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/justrightmedia.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/justrightmedia.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/justrightmedia.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10298"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/justrightmedia.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10298\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10306,"href":"https:\/\/justrightmedia.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10298\/revisions\/10306"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/justrightmedia.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10300"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/justrightmedia.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10298"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/justrightmedia.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10298"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/justrightmedia.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10298"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
