Willis Carto RIP

He died peacefully Monday, October 26 in his beloved Virginia. A friend of mine for many years, Willis Carto, about 2000, invited me to address a large rally in Washington, DC. The Holiday Inn Hotel was situated within a few metres of Congress. The occasion provided me with two great memories. I had for the first time an opportunity to meet a man I had admired for years.

cartoThe Spotlight and The Barnes Review, unlike today’s American Free Press, was always supportive. My articles regularly appeared. The highlight of my relationship with Mr. Carto was addressing an audience of possibly 1,000 delegates at a Washington DC rally that, in the nicest sense of the word, erupted as I completed my passionate address.

Are there men who can fill this European hearted great American? With respect and condolences. ~ Mike Walsh.

Dedication

Willis Carto RIPWillis Allison Carto died Monday night in Virginia, full of years (89), achievements, and honors. But this memorial tribute is nevertheless way overdue. If you know the broad outlines of Mr. Carto’s life you know that he was, for well over a half-century, the founder and patron of those political movements we now variously call Paleoconservatism, Race-Realism, White Nationalism . . . or Alt Right.

Lest we forget, Mr. Carto himself had quite a few titles, imprints, websites, in his long life. RightWestern Destiny.
