However, Kemp’s claims of racial change as a cause for the decline in the Roman Empire is supported by a number of acclaimed and world famous historians.

Professor Tenney Frank from the Johns Hopkins University, Maryland, a recognized authority on the history of ancient Rome and most famous for his book “An Economic History of Rome” (New York, Cooper Square Publishers) published a work called “Race mixture in the Roman Empire” published in the American Historical Review, volume 21 pages 689-708.

In “Race mixture in the Roman Empire” Professor Frank makes the following observations:

“It is probable that when these men wrote a very small percentage of the free plebians on the streets of Rome could prove unmixed Italian descent. <b>By far the larger part — perhaps ninety percent - had Oriental blood in their veins.</b>” <ref>[ http://www.historycooperative.org/journals/jstor/ahr/ahr-21-4-toc.html / Race mixture in the Roman Empire, American Historical Review, volume 21 pages 689-708]</ref>

“This list of slaves that specify their origin as being outside Italy (during the empire), by far the larger portion came from the Orient, especially from Syria and the provinces of Asia Minor, with some from Egypt and Africa (which for racial classification may be taken with the Orient). Some are from Spain and Gaul, but <b>a considerable portion of these came originally from the East</b>.” <ref>[ http://www.historycooperative.org/journals/jstor/ahr/ahr-21-4-toc.html / Race mixture in the Roman Empire, American Historical Review, volume 21 pages 689-708]</ref>

“Very few slaves are recorded from the Alpine and Danube provinces, while Germans rarely appear, except among the imperial bodyguard. Bang remarks that Europeans were of greater service to the empire as soldiers than servants. This is largely true, but, as Strach has commented, the more robust European war-captives were apt to be chosen for the grueling work in the mines and in industry, and largely they have vanished from the records. Such slaves were probably also the least productive of the class; and <b>this, in turn, helps to explain the strikingly Oriental aspect of the new population</b>.” <ref>[ http://www.historycooperative.org/journals/jstor/ahr/ahr-21-4-toc.html / Race mixture in the Roman Empire, American Historical Review, volume 21 pages 689-708]</ref>

“There are other questions that enter into the problem of change of race at Rome, for the solution of which it is even more difficult to obtain statistics. For instance, one asks, without hope of a sufficient answer, why the native stock did not better hold its own. Yet there are at hand not a few reasons. We know for instance that when Italy had been devastated by Hannibal and a large part of its population put to the sword, <b>immense bodies of slaves were brought up in the East to fill the void</b>;” <ref>[ http://www.historycooperative.org/journals/jstor/ahr/ahr-21-4-toc.html / Race mixture in the Roman Empire, American Historical Review, volume 21 pages 689-708]</ref>

“In other words, the native stock was supported by less than a normal birthrate, whereas the stock of foreign extraction had not only a fairly normal birthrate but a liberal quota of manumissions to its advantage.” <ref>[ http://www.historycooperative.org/journals/jstor/ahr/ahr-21-4-toc.html / Race mixture in the Roman Empire, American Historical Review, volume 21 pages 689-708]</ref>

“<b>The race went under.</b> The legislation of Augustus and his successors, while aiming at preserving the native stock, was of the myopic kind so usual in social lawmaking, and failing to reckon with the real nature of the problem involved, it utterly missed the mark.” <ref>[ http://www.historycooperative.org/journals/jstor/ahr/ahr-21-4-toc.html / Race mixture in the Roman Empire, American Historical Review, volume 21 pages 689-708]</ref>

Another famous historian and expert on Roman history, Charles Merivale <ref>[ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Merivale / Charles Merivale, Wikipedia]</ref>, most famous for his book A History of the Romans under the Empire<ref>[ http://www.bartelby.net/222/1403.html / The Romans Under the Empire]</ref>, wrote in that work:

“The centre of the empire had been more exhausted by the civil wars than any of the provinces. The rapid disappearance of the free population had been remarked with astonishment and dismay, at least from the time of the Gracchi. If the numbers actually maintained on the soil of the Peninsula had not diminished, <b>it was abundantly certain that the independent native races had given way almost throughout its extent to a constant importation of slaves</b>.” <ref>[ http://www.bartelby.net/222/1403.html / Charles Merivale, The Romans Under the Empire, vol. 2. pp. 395, 396. 397]</ref>

M Duff, Freedmen in the Early Roman Empire, Cambridge, W Heffer and Sons]</ref> also wrote of racial change as a factor in the fall of Rome:

“At the same time many were tempted to emigrate to the colonies across the sea which Julius Caesar and Augustus founded. Many went away to Romanize the provinces, <b>while society was becoming Orientalized at home</b>. Because slave labor had taken over almost all jobs, the free born could not compete with them. They had to sell their small farms or businesses and move to the cities. Here they were placed on the doles because of unemployment. They were, at first, encouraged to emigrate to the more prosperous areas of the empire — to Gaul, North Africa and Spain. Hundreds of thousands left Italy and settled in the newly-acquired lands.” Empire <ref>[ http://www.questia.com/library/book/freedmen_in_the_early_roman_empire_by_a_m_duff.jsp / A. M Duff, Freedmen in the Early Roman Empire, Cambridge, W Heffer and Sons, 1958 (1928), pp. 200, 201]</ref>

“<b>Such a vast number left Italy — leaving it to the Orientals — that finally restrictions had to be passed to prevent the complete depopulation of the Latin stock, but as we have seen, the laws were never effectively put into force. The migrations increased and Italy was being left to another race</b>. The free-born Italian, anxious for land to till and live upon, displayed the keenest colonization activity.”

“<b>The Roman thus gave away to the Easterner in Italy</b>, while he made a place for himself in the provinces.” <ref>[ http://www.questia.com/library/book/freedmen_in_the_early_roman_empire_by_a_m_duff.jsp / A.

Arthur Kemp is a writer and political figure from South Africa, who currently works for the British National Party.

Biography

Arthur Kemp was born in 1962 in Rhodesia, spending his formative early political years in South Africa. Kemp worked as a journalist for the South African Conservative Party, which opposed the transition of that country to universal suffrage.

He was expelled from the South African Conservative Party in 1992 for opposing the party’s Apartheid policies, which he argued were wrong, unfeasible[1][2] and immoral. [3]

Clive Derby-Lewis and Janusz Walus were found guilty for their roles in the murder of Chris Hani in 1993, and both are serving life sentences. A list of names which Kemp had provided to Gaye Derby-Lewis (the third accused) was judged not to be not a ‘hit list’ as alleged, so Gaye Derby-Lewis was acquitted of all charges and released. Kemp himself was not charged. Kemp was fully investigated by the South African Police, who were monitored in their investigation by George Churchill-Coleman, the former head of Scotland Yard's anti-terrorist squad, and Mathew Phosa, prominent ANC lawyer.[4][5][6]

Kemp has written and self-published several books. He is manager of Excalibur associated with the British National Party (BNP) and is in charge of maintaining the BNP website.[7]

March of the Titans

One of Arthur Kemp's self-published books is entitled March of the Titans: a history of the White Race. The front page of its website version depicts representatives of the "white race" from Cro-Magnon Man, Spirit Cave mummy, Nefertiti, Octavian Augustus, Alexander Nevsky, Queen Elizabeth I, Napoleon Bonaparte, Thomas Jefferson and Adolf Hitler. The book describes the history of white people from their earliest phases through to the modern era, and makes predictions for the future "dissolution of contemporary Western civilization through breakdown in racial homogeneity". [8]

The book claims Sparta was a racially mixed society composed of the usual three Aryan groups Alpine, Mediterranean and Nordic, and that the Romans kept German slaves. " Civilizations can and do fall, and the mightiest of buildings can and do crumble in a few short centuries. This happens when the people who originally made that civilization become a minority or are totally wiped out by either invaders, immigrants or are assimilated into new racial elements." In particular, Kemp claims that the second major population shift in Italian history was the " filling up of Rome with non-White races ". The first was the invasion of the Latini, and the third was the invasion of the Germanic Lombards "replenishing the Nordic racial stock in northern and central Italy."[9] [10] Edward Gibbon's The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire makes no mention of any significant " non-white " presence in Rome nor does Gibbon mention any such supposed " non-white " presence as being a factor in Rome's downfall as claimed by Kemp. [citation needed]

Criticism

According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, Kemp is a white supremacist who has been active in providing some manner of support to the National Alliance in the United States, and asserts he left South Africa because he was seen to have betrayed those convicted in the murder trial of Walus and Derby-Lewis, by giving testimony against the Derby-Lewises.[11] Kemp dismissed these allegations as "total rubbish" on his personal website, saying they didn't even get his year of birth correct.[12]
