The C. O. W. S. Black Love Is A Revolutionary Act Part 1 Aug 31, 2018

Show notes

The Context of White Supremacy hosts our premier study session on Pamela Evans Harris's second publication, BLACK LOVE IS A REVOLUTIONARY ACT. Before her untimely death in February of this year, Pam operated the http://RacismWS.com website and authored an array of books that specifically address the problem of White Supremacy and suggest what to do about it. She was one of The C.O.W.S. listeners's favorite guests and appeared on the program dozens of times. Saddened by her departure, we're reading her work to honor her life and to learn constructive information to permanently eradicate Racism. On a visit to The C.O.W.S., Pam explained that the primary purpose behind this book was to help eradicate the monumental conflict between black males and black females. She hoped that by reading this book, black people could practice showing greater empathy and patience for other black people. #PamTheGreat #TheCOWS9 INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE 564943#

The C.O.W.S. Neutralizing Workplace Racism 08/30/18 Aug 30, 2018

Show notes

The Context of White Supremacy hosts our Thursday weekly forum on neutralizing Workplace Racism. This broadcast is uniquely constructed to improve non-white people's problem-solving ability and refine how black people think, speak, act and control emotions while at work. Any listeners who've pieced together a code to eliminate conflicts with White and/or non-white co-workers, bypass demotions, write-ups, terminations or other forms of violence we experience under Racist work conditions should be first to call in with particulars. We appreciate the chance to learn about the experiences of "black entrepreneurs." Please, share with us how being "self employed" improves your labor experience. NPR confirmed Gus's recommendation that non-white people assume they are under surveillance in the workplace. To mark the 4 years since the police killing of Michael Brown Jr., Whites in St. Louis confirmed that black people federal employees are being mistreated. St. Louis's KSDK reports that a recent investigation found "Black employees also got less honest feedback, fewer networking opportunities and less training." In addition to requisition training opportunities in writing, Gus suggests that Victims of Racism makes notes about important workplace events. Documenting your thoughts and workplace occurrences is more reliable than memory, and the act of writing can organize your thinking. We'll also ask that non-white listeners share crucial portions of the policy and procedure from your current place of employment. #PamTheGreat INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#

The C.O.W.S. Compensatory Call-In 08/25/18 Aug 26, 2018

Show notes

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly Compensatory Call-In. We encourage non-white listeners to dial in with their codified concepts, new terms, observations, research findings, workplace problems or triumphs, and/or suggestions on how best to Replace White Supremacy With Justice ASAP. We’ll use these sessions to hone our use of words as tools to reveal truth, neutralize White people. We’ll examine news reports from the past seven days and – hopefully – promote a constructive dialog. #ANTIBLACKNESS This week, President Donald J. Trump provided an excellent reminder that the System of White Supremacy is an international business by tweeting his solidarity with and concern for Whites in South Africa. The U.S. president was addressing current efforts on the continent to return stolen land to black people. Nationwide prison strikes in the United States also addressed the ongoing enslavement of black people. In North Carolina, students banded together to topple a monument to a Confederate soldier. Many such statues remain throughout the state, country and world. Suspected Race Soldiers in Georgia may have responded to the possibility of the first black female governor in the state by closing a number of voting facilities in the state's "black belt". They rescinded this decision after their act generated national attention. Not surprisingly, the voting facilities that were to be closed were in areas with a high population of black voters. And sadly, former United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan passed away at the age of 80 (cowbell). In addition to mourning the loss of Annan and Aretha Franklin days earlier, C.O.W.S. listeners just became aware of the passing of author and Victim of White Supremacy Pamela Evans Harris. A long time contributor to The C.O.W.S. and the author of Black Love Is A Revolutionary Act and other titles, Pam died at the age of 64. #PamTheGreat INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#

The C.O.W.S. Zora Neale Hurston's Barracoon: The Story of The Last "Black Cargo" Part 3 (Conclusion) Aug 24, 2018

Show notes

The Context of White Supremacy hosts our third and final study session on Zora Neale Hurston's Barracoon. Born in 1891, Hurston was a writer and anthropologist who was a legendary contributor to the Harlem Renaissance. She worked with anthropologists Franz Boaz and Margaret Mead, won a Guggenheim Fellowship, and authored an impressive array of material, including her most popular title, Their Eyes Were Watching God. Although she died in 1960, she continues to contribute new works. Earlier this year, Hurston's Barracoon: The Story of the Last "Black Cargo," was finally released to the public. The book chronicles her 1927 interviews of Cudjo Lewis (Kossola), reported to be the last living survivor of the Middle Passage. Hurston uses the unique speaking style of Mr. Lewis to authentically share his voice and experiences of being stolen and terrorized. Last week's session offers details on Kossola's life after slavery, which including having his own family. He regularly cites how no count African-Americans ridiculed he and his family for their African traditions. The lone exception was a black male who offered Christian-soaked humanity and the bible of White Jesus. It strikes Gus as highly peculiar that a White Woman, Charlotte "The Godmother" Mason would pay Hurston and Kossola for their part in Barracoon. And equally peculiar that a black male in early 20th century Alabama would submit that most of his problems and tribulations with people have been with African Americans. #AntiBlackness #BlackLoveIsARevolutionaryAct

The Context of White Supremacy hosts our Thursday weekly forum on neutralizing Workplace Racism. This broadcast is specifically designed to improve non-white people's problem-solving ability and refine how black people think, speak, act and control emotions while on the job. Any listeners who've pieced together an effective code to eliminate conflicts with White and/or non-white co-workers, bypass demotions, write-ups, terminations or other forms of violence we experience under Racist work conditions should be first to call in with details. We appreciate the chance to learn about the experiences of "black entrepreneurs." Please, share with us how being "self employed" improves your labor experience. We'll revisit the hazards of discussing - or sharing social media posts about - White Supremacy/Racism on the job and what stymies us from habitually applying our counter-racist code at work. More often than not, failure to apply counter-racist logic results in easily avoidable trouble. Gus suggests that Victims of Racism makes notes about important workplace events. Documenting your thoughts and workplace occurrences is more reliable than memory, and the act of writing can organize your thinking.

The C.O.W.S. Pamela Evans Harris (1953 - 2018) Aug 22, 2018

Show notes

The Context of White Supremacy recognizes the life and passing of Pamela Evans Harris. Affectionately known as Pam by C.O.W.S. listeners, the author and Chicago resident was born in 1953. She seriously dedicated much of her time and energy to attempting to counter-racism. She co-authored four books: Trojan Horse: Death of a Dark Nation; Black Love Is A Revolutionary Act; The Interracial Con Game; The Beauty Con Game. Additionally, she created the RacismWS.com website - which is dedicated to sharing counter-racist material. She was one of the most consistent and beloved contributors on The Context of White Supremacy, appearing as a guest on the program more than three dozen times. We'll revisit some of her classic moments on the broadcast and appreciate her phenomenal contributions to helping black people better understand White Supremacy/Racism. #PamTheGreat #BlackLoveIsARevolutionaryAct INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#

We’ll use these sessions to hone our use of words as tools to reveal truth, neutralize White people. We’ll examine news reports from the past seven days and – hopefully – promote a constructive dialog. #ANTIBLACKNESS Former aid to President Donald Trump, Omarosa Manigault-Newman garnered substantial attention this week with allegations that she had a recording of the president saying nigger. The Commander and Chief used social media to brand his former employee a "crazed, crying lowlife," and a "dog." Speaking of animals, a black Oregon horse was horribly abused until his named was changed to "Justice." The newly christened steed has a pending Supreme Court case to affirm his constitutional rights. While the mightiest court in the land adjudicates rights of a horse, Pennsylvania is investigating another massive child rape scandal in the state. Many Suspected Racist members of The Roman Catholic Church have been accused of approximately 1,000 acts of child rape and molestation. A number of Whites participated in concealing this demonic behavior for years, which again corroborates Gus's conclusion that Whites are the greatest proponents of the "no snitch" gang policy. This also conifrms Gus's conclusion that Whites do not value children. This week also saw the passing of entertainment icon, Aretha Franklin. She died at the age of 76. Franklin's father was a comrade of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and she used her immense talents to counter-racism.

The Context of White Supremacy hosts our Thursday weekly forum on neutralizing Workplace Racism. This broadcast is specifically constructed to improve non-white people's problem-solving skills and refine how black people think, speak, act and manage emotions while at work.

We appreciate the chance to learn about the experiences of "black entrepreneurs." Please, share with us how being "self employed" improves your labor experience. We'll return to the Harvard Business Review for an interesting segment on the importance of asking questions in the workplace. Counter-racist logic promotes asking questions, even though some black workers have reported being rebuked for seeking answers. We'll also re-visit what stymies us from habitually applying our counter-racist code at work. More often than not, failure to apply counter-racist logic results in easily avoidable difficulties.

Continuing the political activism, Brown's mother, Lezley McSpadden announced she's running for City Council. She and others have also requested the re-opening of the criminal investigation in to her son's death. Wildfires continue to ravage dozens of acres in California. While kudos are doled out to the brave firefighters risking their lives to contain the blaze, the Los Angeles Times reported that a black firefighter had his private property smeared with feces by his fellow firefighters. One year after the "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, the dead White Woman Heather Heyer is projected as more heroic then Marvel's Black Panther. Her White mother has been widely interviewed and reminded all that her daughter is an illustration that some Whites have made the ultimate sacrifice to battle Racism. #RacismIsTerrorism INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#

The C.O.W.S. Zora Neale Hurston’s Barracoon Part 2 Aug 11, 2018

Show notes

The Context of White Supremacy hosts our second study session on Zora Neale Hurston's Barracoon. Born in 1891, Hurston was a writer and anthropologist who's cited as a legendary contributor to the Harlem Renaissance. She worked with anthropologists Franz Boaz and Margaret Mead, won a Guggenheim Fellowship, and authored an impressive array of material, including her most popular title, Their Eyes Were Watching God. Although she died in 1960, she continues to contribute new works. Earlier this year, Hurston's Barracoon: The Story of the Last "Black Cargo," was finally released to the public. The book chronicles her 1927 interviews of Cudjo Lewis (Kossola), reported to be the last living survivor of the Middle Passage. Hurston uses the unique vernacular of Mr. Lewis to authentically share his voice and experiences of being stolen and terrorized. The first portion of the text features two introductions and a forward from Alice Walker. A great deal of time is invested emphasizing that Africans were not just victims of slavery. Walker's 2018 commentary and editor Deborah G. Plant's introduction both stress that African kings quarreled with other Africans and sold them off to Whites. The introductions also detail the importance Hurston attached to the unique dialog of Kossola. Her writing the book using Kossola's way of speaking was a major reason this book was not published for over six decades. #RacismIsTerrorism INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#
