James J. O'Meara's The Homo and the Negro brings a "queer eye" to
the overwhelmingly "homophobic" Far Right. In his title essay,
O'Meara argues that the Far Right cannot effectively defend Western
civilization unless it checks its premises about homosexuality and
non-sexual forms of male bonding, which are undermined not just by
liberals and feminists, but also by Judeo-Christian "family values"
advocates. O'Meara also uses his theory to explain the
stigmatization of Western high culture as "gay" and the worship of
uncultured oafs as masculine ideals. Although O'Meara grants that
the "gay rights" movement is largely subversive, he argues that
homosexuals have traditionally played prominent roles in creating
and conserving Western civilization. The Homo and the Negro
collects 14 pieces on such topics as conservatism, homosexuality,
race, fashion, Occupy Wall Street, Mad Men, The Gilmour Girls, The
Untouchables, The Big Chill, They Live, popular music (Heavy Metal,
Black Metal, New Age, Scott Walker), and such figures as Noel
Coward, Oscar Wilde, and Humphrey Bogart. Shaped by an eccentric,
post-WWII American upbringing, O'Meara draws upon "masculinist"
writers like Hans Bluher, Alisdair Clarke, and Wulf Grimsson, as
well as the Traditionalism of Rene Guenon, Julius Evola, and Alain
Danielou.
