THE VERNON JOHNS SOCIETY   

 

 
 
Vernon Johns

This site replaces the various members.aol.com websites that I had constructed over the period of more than a decade.  I was forced to make this change because AOL decided to stop supporting their AOL Press software, making it impossible to make any modifications to the websites.  (They told me they would fix the problems, but I suspect this was just so much typical corporate smoke and mirrors.)  So now, all the various website are in one place.

1. Vernon Johns Society  -- now presented from a more historical viewpoint

2. Race Relations: The Failure of Sociology
www.vernonjohns.org/vernjohns/failure.html

Sociology is inadequate in that it is a politically liberal approach that
does not recognize that it works within a racist system and, therefore, is
inadequate by itself to change that racist system. The discipline continues
to refuse to consider racism as a much more serious structural problem.


3. The Only Non-racist History of the United States
www.vernonjohns.org/vernjohns/sthtofc.html

This is the only work that adequately explains the political and social
system of the United States and its political cycles. It does so by seeing
racism as structural problem within the United States.


4. Return of the Renaissance Person: The Unity of Knowledge
www.vernonjohns.org/vernjohns/rntofc.html

With the advances in connecting the natural and social sciences through
advances in the study of the similarity of brain structure and societies
between animals and humans has made it clear that all the disciplines taught
within the universities are closely interrelated. This insight, however, is
still not politically acceptable to the social sciences that have been now
been shown to rely on some very questionable assumptions.


5. Fighting American Moralism: Biological Insights into Deviancy
www.vernonjohns.org/nonracists/dvtofc.html

American society is too puritanical and this is reflected in the moralistic
approach that still pervades the social sciences. This website uses the
insights from biology and sociobiology to overthrow the assumptions of
American moralism in the traditional area of social problems.


6. Biography of Vernon Johns: Father of the Civil Rights Movement
www.vernonjohns.org/tcal001/vjtofc.html

This is the only full-scale biography of the father of the civil rights
movement, the Reverend Vernon Johns, a man censored and banned in his time --
a man still too nonracist and truthful for our current politically correct
crowd.

7. Eye Witness to Civil Rights History: The Essays and Autobiography of Henry
W. Powell
www.vernonjohns.org/rosemary1246/powell.html

Autobiography and civil rights essays of a man who intimately knew the father
of the civil rights movement, the Rev. Vernon Johns; one of the originators
of the 1954 Supreme Court decision "Brown vs. Board of Education," Barbara
Johns Powell, and was a teacher when Prince Edward County, Virginia, became
the only county in the country to close its public schools rather than
integrate.

American history
