The C.O.W.S. Compensatory Call-In 05/05/18 May 05, 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 During the first week of May, White Supremacists skillfully employed the press to focus a substantial amount of attention on t he views of a Victim of White Supremacy, Kanye West. While White-dominated media enterprises devoted substantial time renouncing Mr. West, noticeably less attention was dedicated to the murder and dismemberment of two black males in Oklahoma. Two White men have been arrested and charged with the slaughter; however, the OKC prosecutors doubts Racism motivated the butchering. Speaking of "criming while White," Kanye West also got more ink than the conviction of one of the White Terrorists who carried out the violent melee in Charlottesville, Virginia last summer. West, crooner R. Kelly and the recently convicted Bill Cosby remain three of the most despised males in the northwestern hemisphere. Days after Cosby was found guilty, White journalists began targeting R. Kelley as the next black male scofflaw who needs to be handled. #KanyeGotVGQ INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#

The C.O.W.S. Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man Part 1 May 04, 2018

Show notes

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the premier study session on Ralph Ellison's 1952 novel, Invisible Man. One of Gus's top five all-time books, Ellison's work won the 1953 National Book Award and has been celebrated as masterpiece for nearly 75 years. Invisible Man follows a nameless black male struggling through the confusion of White Supremacy (Racism). Ellison's bountiful narrative treats readers to: the historically black college experience, the police shooing of an unarmed black male, a "riot," "interracial" sex and so much more. Although it's fiction, this book delivers a vibrant, accurate portrait of how White Supremacy obliterates the existence and identities of black people. #BattleRoyal INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#

The C.O.W.S. Neutralizing Workplace Racism 05/03/18 May 03, 2018

Show notes

The Context of White Supremacy hosts our Thursday weekly forum on neutralizing Workplace Racism. This broadcast is uniquely crafted to refurbish 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 figured out the most effective method to reduce conflicts with White and/or non-white co-workers, circumvent demotions, write-ups, terminations or other forms of violence we experience in Racist work environments should be first to call in with particulars. We always value hearing the perspectives of "black entrepreneurs;" please, share with us how being "self employed" improves your labor experience. We'll also re-visit what stops us from applying our counter-racist code on the job. More often than not, failure to practice codification leads to easily avoidable trouble. Gus encourages Victims of Racism to write down notable workplace occurrences. 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 significant portions of the policy and procedure from your current place of employment. #WorkplaceRacism INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#

The COWS White Terrorism On The Yoga Mat #WeepingWhiteWomen May 01, 2018

Show notes

After becoming a flood victim, Gus T. began investing more in his mental and physical health. To compensate for the distress of housing dislocation, he returned to a vegan diet and resumed a daily yoga practice. Healthier diet and regular exercise had a constructive, dramatic and immediate impact on Gus's health and well being. However, attending White-dominated yoga studios can present it's own menaces. After months of attending classes with mostly "minor" incidents of White Terrorism, Gus had a major conflict with a Suspected Race Soldier. To be specific, a White Woman. Gus will outlinel the incident as a reminder that black people can never be surprised about Whites practicing Racism - we should expect it. Counter-racist logic dictates that black people should try to avoid public confrontations with Whites when possible unless one has a well developed course of action. The White race has abundant reinforcements. #WeepingWhiteWomen INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#

The C.O.W.S. Compensatory Call-In 04/28/18 Apr 28, 2018

Show notes

The trailblazing black actor and comedian will be sentenced later this year and could be restricted to greater confinement for the remainder of his life. Speaking of predators, Travis Reinking, a White man, murdered four non-white people at a Tennessee Waffle House. He was eventually arrested and charged with murder. Mr. Reinking had a history of terroristic behavior; in 2017, he illegally crossed a White House security barrier and was taken into custody. Unlike Miriam I. Carey, a black mother who was shot and killed near the White House in 2013, enforcement officials did not deem Reinking a lethal threat last year. In the state of Alabama, where J. Marion Sims still has a statue, Bryan Stevenson and fellow organizers constructed "the country's first site dedicated to the legacy of black people lynched in the United States." Coincidentally, a black female, Chikesia Clemons, was mauled and stripped nude publicly in an Alabama Waffle House. #AvoidWaffleHouse INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#

The C.O.W.S. THE HATE U GIVE Part 8 Apr 27, 2018

Show notes

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the eighth and final study session on Angie Thomas's internationally acclaimed young adult novel, The Hate U Give. Allegedly inspired by the 2009 police killing of Oscar Grant, Thomas's work "debuted at the top of The New York Times's Young Adult best-seller list, and has drawn ecstatic praise from critics, librarians, book sellers and prominent young-adult novelists," writes The Times's Alexandra Alter. After more than a year, The Hate U Give remains entrenched on The Times's young adult bestseller list and is being processed for a major motion picture starring The Hunger Games's Amandla Stenberg. Last week's segment offered another hefty serving of soft core pornography between 16-teen-year old Starr and her White beau, Chris. A book advertised as a serious interrogation of racism and police abuse of black people, seems primarily focused on promoting "interracial relationships" and the idea that Whites can learn from black people how to now practice Racism. In between Starr and Chris integrating the bedroom, the White officer who killed Starr's black male friend is predictably not indicted. A "riot" ensues where black people roam the streets singing rap lyrics. Chris joins the fracas to authenticate his "blackness." #AntiBlackness INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#

The C.O.W.S. w/ Dr. Carolyn West: WHITE SUPREMACY and PORNOGRAPHY Apr 24, 2018

Show notes

Dr. Carolyn West visits The Context of White Supremacy. Teaching a range of courses related to violence and sexuality, Dr. West investigates the long-term consequences of intimate partner violence and sexual assault as well as the hypersexualization of young women in the media. During our most recent discussion with Dr. Martin Kevorkian, he informed listeners about a superb lecture featuring Dr. West's research on White Supremacy in pornography. Her talk drew from content featured in her documentary film, "Let Me Tell Ya'll Bout Black Chics: Images of Black Women in Pornography." Dr. West used the documentary to expose the flagrant, racist sexual exploitation of black bodies. She also challenged White feminists, who speak loudly and often about the commodification of White Women, but remain mum regarding the porn industry's "sexual sewering" of black females and males. We'll ask Dr. West to speculate why White Supremacists harbor such an insatiable sexual desire for black people, who they consistently label as ignorant and primitive. #AntiBlackness INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#

The C.O.W.S. Compensatory Call-In 04/21/18 Apr 21, 2018

The billion dollar coffee conglomerate decided to plan "racial bias" training for May of this year, ostensibly to keep White and non-white employees from criminalizing black patrons who enter the cafe. Gus found it curious that Starbucks didn't institute "racial bias" training for their employees in 2015 when they attracted national attention and scorn for their campaign to encourage dialog between customers and baristas about Racism. Speaking of removals, a monument to the White "father of gynecology," J. Marion Sims was uprooted from New York City's Central Park. Sims enslaved and tortured black females to refine his medical research, and for years many protested the statues throughout the U.S. in his honor. An intimately related subject, black maternal mortality rates, continues to be one of the more popular recent talking points on major, White-dominated news outlets. #MamaWinnie INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#

The C.O.W.S. THE HATE U GIVE Part 7 Apr 20, 2018

Show notes

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the seventh study session on Angie Thomas's historically popular young adult novel, The Hate U Give. Supposedly inspired by the 2009 police slaying of Oscar Grant, Thomas's work "debuted at the top of The New York Times's Young Adult best-seller list, and has drawn ecstatic praise from critics, librarians, book sellers and prominent young-adult novelists," writes The Times's Alexandra Alter. After more than a year, The Hate U Give remains bound to The Times's young adult bestseller list and is being formatted for a major motion picture starring The Hunger Games's Amandla Stenberg. Last week's segment featured the best night of Starr's young life. The black teen straddled a White boy in a limousine before nabbing flapjacks at IHOP to cap the high school prom. While basking in the glory of the evening with her White classmates, Starr informs readers that she didn't think about her dead black friends, Natasha and Khalil at all. After enjoying some "brown sugar," Chris lip-syncs "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" theme song like only a real "White ally" can. After the house is shredded with bullets, Starr and her family move out of Garden Heights for an allegedly safer neighborhood - somewhat like Will Smith's beloved sitcom character. #AntiBlackness INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#
