The C. O. W. S. w/ Rice University's Danielle D. King Reneged on Discussing Microaggressions/Workplace Racism # Resilient May 11, 2022

Show notes

Rice University professor Danielle King reneged on speaking with The Context of White Supremacy (C.O.W.S.) Radio Program. She emailed Gus to say she was late leaving work, which is totally understandable. She dialed in on the switchboard, listened briefly and hung up. She never emailed or attempted to contact Gus again. We dialed her during the program, and our call was forwarded to voicemail. Gus and listeners were excited to discuss "microaggressions"/White Supremacy with Professor King, but she emphatically reneged on her agreement. Listeners are encouraged to email Professor King to see why she departed without saying a word. Email: danielle.d.king@rice.edu Professor King has way better credentials than Gus, with a B.A. from Spelman College and a doctorate in Organized Psychology from Michigan State, she's an Associate Professor of Psychology at Rice University in Texas. Professor King's conduct - and even her research that suggests non-white people will create White "allyship" are precisely why The C.O.W.S. maintains a White Guest Only Policy. Gus was interested in discussing the new report: "When Thriving Requires Effortful Surviving: Delineating Manifestations and Resource Expenditure Outcomes of Microaggressions for Black Employees." Listeners can read the report at: http://tiny.cc/danielleking Even without Professor King, Gus reviewed the report and its observations about the antiblack work experience. #WhitePeopleCantBeIgnorantAboutRacism #TheCOWS13 INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE: 564943#

The C. O. W. S. w/ Dr. Dennis B. Downey: The Lynching of Zachariah Walker #DowneyLies May 09, 2022

Show notes

The Context of White Supremacy (C.O.W.S.) Radio Program welcomes Dr. Dennis B. Downey. An emeritus professor of history at Millersville University in Pennsylvania, Dr. Downey's been the Director of the University Honors College and has penned a number of books. He studies late 19th and early 20th century US history. We'll discuss his 1991 publication, No Crooked Death: Coatesville, Pennsylvania and the Lynching of Zachariah Walker. Gus was ignorant about this Racist murder until we read Essie Mae Washington-Williams' memoir. She begins her narrative with Walker's lynching and makes it plain that even though his death was more than a decade before she was born, it had a profound impact on her existence. We'll discuss the details of Walker's death and the months of trials that resulted in not one person being convicted. We'll also ask about Dr. Downey's work with Essie Mae's family to publish more material on their experience as J. Strom Thurmond's hidden relatives as well as his research on White Supremacy and disability - which we've discussed previously with Dr. Tommy J. Curry. Non-white listeners should pay special attention to Dr. Downey's extensive use of jargon and meaningless rhetoric. E.g., Him quoting The Doobie Brother's "Takin' It To The Streets." Importantly, Dr. Downey flagrantly lied about the content of his book. Gus questioned him about his failure to include that black residents of Coatesville took up arms to halt the lynching of a black male in 1938. Essie Mae Washington-Williams details this event in her memoir, and her step-father John Henry Washington was one of the black males who was willing to resort to counter-violence. Dr. Downey does not include one sentence about this or any other black people's counter-violence efforts. Dr. Downey also lied about his failure to cite references when discussing a suspected black spy at the one year vigil of Zachariah Walker's lynching. #WhitePeopleCantBeIgnorantAboutRacism #TheCOWS13 INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE: 564943#

The C. O. W. S. Compensatory Call-In 05/07/22 May 07, 2022

Show notes

The Context of White Supremacy hosts 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 News reports leaked that the Supreme Court will overturn the 1973 Roe v. Wade verdict and restrict abortion access in many parts of the US. Previous C.O.W.S.'s guests Jane Elliott, Admitted White Supremacist, and 3rd generation physician Dr. Frances Cress Welsing both theorized that the declining number of individuals classified as White would and plummeting fertility rates would lead to restricted access to abortions. In Michigan, a judge will decide whether defendants in the Flint, Michigan Lead Poisoning Case received due process in the criminal proceedings. In Oklahoma, a lawsuit seeking compensation for the 1921 White Terrorist attack in Tusla will proceed. Three remaining victims of the massacre are the lead plaintiffs. We also discussed the California droughts impact on black farmers as well as a plethora of attacks against black students. #MentholAndMelanin #TheCOWS13 INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE: 564943#

The C. O. W. S. Neutralizing Workplace Racism 05/06/22 May 06, 2022

Show notes

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly summit on Neutralizing Workplace Racism. Last week, a female listener shared detailed suggestions about wardrobe and hairstyle for non-white females in the workplace. She recommends blazers, sweaters and dark and neutral colors while avoiding tight fitting tops and bright colors. She also suggests that black females select one professional, easy-to-maintain hairstyle and never change it. This way your co-workers only see your clean, business attire and this helps keep your clothes and/or what's on your scalp from being the subject of unwanted attention. #SpringIntoCounterRacism #TheCOWS13 INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE: 564943#

The C. O. W. S. Essie Mae Washington-Williams' Dear Senator Part 8 #DirtyOldWhiteMan May 05, 2022

Show notes

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the 8th study session on Essie Mae Washington-Williams' Dear Senator: A Memoir by the Daughter of J. Strom Thurmond. We're nearly done with the book, and Gus must admit, this is likely the saddest books he's ever read. Essie Mae's confusion and father hunger for a child raping White Supremacist is... a sorrow-filled existence. Additionally, the lynchings and gender-specific targeting of black males are such traumatic, constant events in Essie Mae's life, readers can mark time by tracking black male corpses. Last week, Essie Mae detailed the ongoing challenges her husband Julius faced. He was unable to find employment or paying clients as a licensed attorney, when he was employed, he was not promoted, and his wife concealed large cash payments from her White Supremacist "father." He started drinking. Essie Mae's "second mother" Mary died at a young age leaving her with no family other than "Ol' Strom." She, her husband and children moved back and forth across the country to find work and better quality life in the 1960's. Essie Mae said the Racism in California is "less obvious." Although her husband found job-hunting disappointing and promotions unobtainable here too. She also mentioned the Savannah River Site, a bomb making plant in South Carolina. She neglected to mention this is one of the most toxic regions in the world. And... Whites ejected a large number of black residents to build this facility, refused to promote black employees, and subjected black workers to contaminated areas without proper safety equipment. Thurmond helped secure the land for this nuclear facility. #DeadBeatWhiteDads #TheCOWS13 INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE: 564943#

The C.O.W.S. Neutralizing Workplace Racism 04/29/22 Apr 29, 2022

Show notes

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly forum on Neutralizing Workplace Racism. Seemingly all year long, we've seen continued reports of black employees being called Racist slurs and terrorized while working. Rachel Scheuerman is the latest Race Soldier to target a hard working black employee. Scheuerman visited an Oklahoma Little Caesar’s and became enraged when she was told they did not have "crazy bread." The 71-year-old White Woman exited her vehicle and called the 17-year-old employee a "nigger." After the verbal tirade she struck the black male in the face and snickered. She's currently charged with “malicious harassment based upon race,” which is a misdemeanor. Again, non-white people must be prepared and never shocked about any White person using Racist slurs - even while at work. We also discussed a female listener's suggestion that females maintain one hairstyle for the duration of their work career. Prudishness has it's benefits in a system rife with sexual misconduct. And the hair of black males and females often becomes a source of unwanted attention in the workplace. #SpringIntoCounterRacism #TheCOWS13 INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE: 564943#

The C.O.W.S. Essie Mae Washington-Williams' Dear Senator Part 7 #SouthernManifesto Apr 28, 2022

Show notes

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the 7th study session on Essie Mae Washington-Williams' Dear Senator: A Memoir by the Daughter of J. Strom Thurmond. We're beyond the halfway point of the book, and Gus must admit this is likely one of the saddest books he's ever read. Essie Mae's confusion and father hunger for a child raping White Supremacist is... a sorrow-filled existence. Additionally, the lynchings and gender-specific targeting of black males are such traumatic, constant events in Essie Mae's life, readers can mark time by tracking black male corpses. Last week, Essie Mae lost her college care mate, Matthew J. Perry, as he joined the service to fight in World War II. Eventually, Julius Williams swooped in, and he and Essie Mae were married. Strangely, Williams had no knowledge about his new White father-in-law, Governor J. Strom Thurmond. Tragically, Essie-Mae's mother never got to meet her son-in-law. She died from kidney failure at age 38. Left with "Ol' Strom," Essie Mae has to make her way in the world as a new wife and mother. Gov. Thurmond comes back into her life with a sack of cash - Gus estimates he dropped at least $1,000 on his "biracial" daughter. Essie Mae tells her father about the death of Carrie Butler, and Thurmond seemed unaware and speechless. He stammered through a lot of lame excuses about his tacky arrangement with Butler, his new White wife (age 21), and his public support of White Supremacy on the campaign trail. Interestingly, Essie Mae conceals Thurmond's sizable cash payments from her attempted husband. #DeadBeatWhiteDads #TheCOWS13 INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE: 564943#

The C.O.W.S. w/ Dr. George Hutchinson: Nella Larsen, Passing & White Supremacy Apr 26, 2022

Show notes

The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Dr. George Hutchinson. The Newton C. Farr Professor of American Culture at Cornell University, Dr. Hutchinson examines 19th and 20th century American literature and culture - especially in relation to White Supremacy/Racism. He has a special affinity for Walt Whitman and the Harlem Renaissance. While reading Essie Mae Washington-Williams's memoir, Dear Senator. She talks about Nella Larsen's famed novel, Passing, but also provides details about Larsen's life and times - including her time as a nurse at Booker T. Washington's Tuskegee. This inspired Gus to checkout Dr. Hutchinson's biography of Larsen, In Search of Nella Larsen: A Biography of the Color Line. We'll discuss his extensive research of this reclusive literary figure. Like Essie Mae, Larsen also has one White parent and one non-white parent. Racial Classification Confusion is on ample display in both ladies's writing. We'll discuss Dr. Hutchinson's use of incorrect terms such as "color line" and get his thoughts on the recent adaptation of Larson's Passing into a major motion picture. Dr. Hutchinson demonstrated his commitment to White Supremacy/Racism by leaving in the middle of the program. He provided a wealth of fascinating responses in his brief time with us. He used a variety of terms to obfuscate what it means to be White. #RacialClassificationConfusion #TheCOWS13 INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE: 564943#
