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 Bryan Stevenson released a profound indictment of the irrefutable record of White Terrorism targeting black people; the New York Times seemed uncomfortable acknowledging White pathology. The same White Terrorism was demonstrated in North Carolina, where Craig Stephen Hicks killed three non-white Muslims; his ex-wife stated, "He had no compassion at all." The non-white NYPD officer who killed Akai Gurley was indicted. The White director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, James Comey, discussed the police Terrorism that spawns uncalculated massacres like Akai Gurley's by quipping that, "Everyone's a Little Bit Racist." Karl Malone thinks black people should stop begging for handouts, and Jackie Robinson West little league champions are now empty handed. Whites decided the black team used ineligible children and abolished their victory. Suspected Race Soldier Brian Williams has been suspended from NBC for six months without pay for practicing deceit; the New York Times urged us to forgive a Racist Suspect who likely contributed to black people dying during Hurricane Katrina. #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS - http://tiny.cc/ledjb CALL IN NUMBER: 760.569.7676 CODE 564943# SKYPE: FREECONFERENCECALLHD.7676 CODE 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p
