n Day of Reckoning Buchanan writes: “By 1960, 88.6 percent of our nation was of European stock and 95 percent Christian. America had never been a more united nation. African Americans had been assimilated into the Christian faith and national culture….” But then a disastrous change overtook us. The cultural revolution of the 1960s disrupted the “proper” forces of assimilation and integration. The Immigration Act of 1965 began to dissolve “the ethnocultural core” of America. At the same time, secularism displaced Christianity as the “faith of the elites.” Buchanan concludes that America is now hopelessly divided. “If we have no common faith,” he notes, “and are divided by morality and culture, and are separated by ethnicity and race, what holds us together?”
