This article, which exposes the American political archetypes, is part of our “United Patriots Uprising with Gary Binford” series, where we examine today’s ideological battles through the dual lens of the Founding Fathers’ intent and a biblical worldview. In this episode, Kevin McGary exposes the false narrative of race and reveals the Marxist roots of modern political control.
American Political Archetypes and the False Race Narrative
Kevin McGary joins Gary Binford to unpack how American political archetypes are weaponized through race narratives. His latest book, The Archetypes of American Politics, explains how cultural and ideological battles have spiritual roots.
“There’s no such thing as race,” McGary states plainly. “It’s a made-up distinction with no biblical basis.” The Bible affirms one human race—created in God’s image and called to unity in Christ. But McGary shows how Darwin’s theory of evolution laid the groundwork for white supremacy, scientific racism, and eventually Marxist ideology.
Understanding the Archetypes: Overlords, House Slaves, and Field Slaves
Inspired by a metaphor from Malcolm X, reinterpreted through biblical truth, McGary outlines three key political archetypes in American life:
- Overlords – globalist elites pushing control through centralized power
- House Slaves – media, academia, and celebrities enforcing propaganda
- Field Slaves – free thinkers guided by Scripture, resisting ideological bondage
“Today’s media and elites operate as obedient house slaves,” McGary says. “Their job is to make sure no one escapes the plantation—even though they themselves are not truly free.”
How American Political Archetypes Grew from Darwin to Marx
Darwin’s Descent of Man seeded racial hierarchies, later embedded into Marxist theory. McGary examines how the concept of race itself is a social construct, employed by global movements to divide and conquer.
These pseudo-scientific distinctions gave rise to Critical Race Theory, DEI, and the broader ideology of grievance, which continues to fragment our culture today. In contrast, Scripture calls us to unity in Christ and repentance, not perpetual offense and division.
Escaping the Trap: How to Break Free from Political Archetypes
To break free from these American political archetypes, McGary recommends:
- Engage persuadable hearts: Focus your efforts on independents and moderates who are open to truth.
- Expose the lies: Educate others on how media, politics, and education manipulate race for power.
- Reject Marxism in all forms: DEI, CRT, and social justice movements are not neutral—they’re tools of authoritarian control.
McGary reminds us that real freedom is binary: you’re either embracing your God-given liberty or submitting to ideological bondage.
Kevin McGary’s Journey: A Field Slave Mentality Rooted in Faith
From the Hunter’s Point projects of San Francisco to the national stage, Kevin McGary’s life testifies to God’s redemptive power. Once immersed in Marxist theory through academia, he found lasting truth in God’s Word and has spent decades helping others walk free from ideological enslavement.
His YouTube channel, Off the Plantation: The Journey Toward Freedom, equips viewers to examine cultural trends with biblical discernment.
Conclusion: Why American Political Archetypes Demand a Theological Response
McGary makes it clear: only through theology, not ideology, can Americans remain truly free.
“When government gives you freedom, it can take it away,” he warns. “But what the Lord has set free is free indeed” (John 8:36).
Our nation’s future depends not on more politics but on a return to biblical truth, God-given rights, and Christ-centered liberty. It’s time to choose: will we stay on the plantation, or walk free into truth?
