Anyone can pull a trigger, but not everyone has the discipline or the courage to fight with bare hands—to cultivate the strength, both mental and physical, that true training builds. A strong body is the foundation of a strong mind; the endurance and focus required in physical training sharpen resilience, fortify willpower, and create a mind that does not falter under pressure. Rarely do we see the combination of intellect with bravery; those with sharp minds often lack the will to act, and those with courage may not value wisdom. This is why we must revive the archetype of the “cultured thug”: someone who embodies strength, discipline, and knowledge in equal measure.

This is why Active Clubs exist as a living, evolving, growing concept—a foundation built on real strength, stability, and growth. Unlike the recent failed groups that gathered to fire guns in the woods under the banners of old symbols.

‘Race against race, immutable’: Pound’s fascist readings of Henry James
by David Barnes

Henry James is recognised as a major literary influence on modernism. Yet in the increasingly politicised writings of the modernist poet Ezra Pound, James stood for far more than literary experimentation. In Pound’s writings, the novelist figured as an author peculiarly sensitive to notions of race and cultural integrity. This essay explores Pound’s creation of a ‘Fascist’ James, one whose battles on behalf of ‘civilisation’ came increasingly to signify for Pound a narrow, culturally exclusive and authoritarian world. By the late 1930s, James featured in Pound’s Italian journalism as an ideal author for his ‘Fascist Library’. With readings of Pound’s early writings on James alongside in-depth analyses of the Pisan Cantos (1948), James’s fictions of encounter between America and Europe became key to Pound’s later vision of culture – a vision increasingly marked by its emphasis on the cultural and racial unity of Europe.

🇬🇷 On November 1, 2013, Giorgos and Manos, two young Greek nationalists, were shot dead by antifa terrorists.

Alexandros, a third nationalist, was seriously injured in an attack; he only opened his eyes again eleven days later, after undergoing multiple operations. To this day, the antifascists who opened fire from their motorcycle have not been held responsible. Although they claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement, the authorities have decided to drop the ongoing investigations.

“The 300 Spartans of Thermopylae are regarded by us as a parable for honour and fulfilment of duty. Nothing gives better proof of the influence of the latter than our attempts at a restoration of Greek life.”

The Iron Curtain Over America
by John Beaty

This book is unique in that it not only discusses the internal decay and the external disasters which threaten the life of American people (in fact, of ALL the people), but diagnoses the growing cancer of which they are merely the symptoms. Going behind the iron curtain of propaganda, censorship and deception, the author, former Colonel of the Military Intelligence Service, gives to the reader the first comprehensive documented account of the origin, the scope, and the intentions of the “insidious forces working from within,” which are seeking to destroy Western civilization. “An honest and courageous dispeller of the fog of propaganda in which most minds seem to dwell.” – Lt. General P. A. Del Valle, USMC “I think it ought to be compulsory reading in every public school in America.” – Senator William A. Langer, former Chairman, Judiciary Committee “This book is a magnificent contribution to those who would preserve our American ideals.” – Lt. Gen. Edward M. Almond
