    The Context of White Supremacy (C.O.W.S.) Radio Program hosts the weekly summit on Neutralizing Workplace Racism 02/05/26. It's Negro History Month official. Typically, many Race Soldiers seek out their black co-workers to make tacky, Racist, and unprofessional wisecracks about Dr. George Washington Carver's peanuts and/or fried chicken in general. Don't be surprised if this happens to you - and remember to record what they say. Additionally, President Trump reclassified thousands of federal employees so they could be more easily fired. Again, all Victims of Racism should remember they can be terminated at any time and for any reason (or, without reason). This week also marks Chicago's Black Restaurant Week. Nab something tasty if you think it's constructive. Several Victims of Racism called or wrote in to recount being sabotaged in the workplace. Either by having their intellectual property stolen, or their coworkers flagrantly ignore and contradict given orders. #TexasDPS #TheCOWS17Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

This is the reality many veterans and law enforcement officers face when the uniform comes off, but the mission mindset never does.Raphael opens up about military service, security forces training, and the mental shift required to survive in combat — and how that same conditioning nearly destroyed him back home. From critical incident police shootings, to family court battles, to standing at the edge of suicide, this story exposes the unseen cost of service and why life after the military can be harder than deployment itself.This conversation discusses PTSD in veterans, police mental health, and what happens when trauma goes untreated. If you've ever struggled with transitioning out of the military, questioned your identity after service, or felt lost after dedicating your life to something bigger than yourself — this story will hit home.There is life after the uniform.But no one tells you how hard it is to find it.

    The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Admitted Racist Dr. Katherine Blaesing. Classified as a White Woman, Dr. Blaesing is “the Director of Community Well-Being” at San Francisco's The Hamlin School. “She is passionate about the inextricable link between holistic health and both anti-bias and anti-racism tenets and understandings,” and just finished “completing her Doctorate in Anti-Racist Policy and Leadership at American University.” Gus T. recently located her 2025 dissertation for said doctorate, No One Questions My Presence Here: White Women in Higher Education. The report cites a number of former C.O.W.S. guests - including Dr. Joe Feagin, Dr. Charles W. Mills, and Dr. Frank Wilderson to name a few. Ostensibly, Dr. Blaesing examines how she and other White Women maintain and refine the System of White Supremacy. However, her works greatly minimizes White Women's central culpability in pipelining black boys to greater confinement. Her work neglects to address if White people are going to voluntarily desist with the practice of White Supremacy. She also suggests that White people feel “guilty” about mistreating black people. Where is the evidence? We'll ask how White Women satisfy their “sadomasochistic” desires while failing black students. Importantly, Dr. Blaesing tried to suggest that Gus T. tricked her into a conversation under false pretenses. Gus reminded her that he requested to inspect her dissertation and identified her outburst as an act (performance) of Racism. #TheCOWS17Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

    The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the 4th study session on Char Adams' Black-Owned: The Revolutionary Life of the Black Bookstore. Published at the end of 2025, Adams' new book made a number of lists for top books of the year. Touted as an "award-winning journalist, editor, and storyteller for NBC News, known for her work on race, identity, and inequitable systems," Adams is a lovely black female, Victim of Racism. This may be the first to seriously investigate the history of bookstores operated by people classified as black in the area of the world known as the US. Specifically, Adams investigates how black people have responded to the System of White Supremacy through the lens of bookstores ownership. C.O.W.S. listeners should know that White Supremacists have invested immense time and energy to ensure that black people do not read or have access to books. So, black bookstores must be heavily targeted places. Last week, we discussed the Tree of Life Bookstore in Harlem and the Hue-Man Experience Bookstore in Denver. A central theme of this text is that black bookstore operators were motivated to provide books for black children. Importantly, last week Adams told us that a significant pattern is that black females often read fictional romance novels - like Terry McMillan's Waiting To Exhale, while black males mostly read non-fiction works of history. Gus notes that many of the fictional novels most popular with black females often omit the System of White Supremacy while highlighting black males as feverish, misogynistic ogres. #COINTELPRO #TheCOWS16Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

    The Context of White Supremacy (C.O.W.S.) Radio Program hosts the weekly summit on Neutralizing Workplace Racism 01/29/26. While nurses in the US started the new year with strikes for better work conditions, a black female nurse in he United Kingdom, Jennifer Melle, concluded a horrendous ordeal after being accused of "misgendering" a White Race Soldier and alleged child rapist. Employed at Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals NHS Trust, Nurse Melle reportedly called a White patient "Mr" and "he." The Racist demanded that Nurse Melle address them as a female. She informed her patient that her religious beliefs forbid her from identifying them as female. The Racist began spewing Racist slurs and threatening Nurse Melle, who was later charged with "misgendering" this volatile Racist. When people beyond the hospital became aware of this conflict, Melle was accused of breaching confidentiality and sharing private information about the White patient. Although this happened across the pond, this harrowing workplace experience offers many lessons for Victims of Racism. around the globe. And one of our listeners provides a tacky illustration of why we should always refrain from accepting food from coworkers (or strangers) while on the job.

    The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Dr. Joshua Clark Davis. Classified as a White Man, Dr. Davis is an associate professor of U.S. history at the University of Baltimore. Much of his research examines area of law, politics, and economics within the System of White Supremacy. Gus learned about Dr. Davis' work while studying Char Adams' fabulous new work Black-Owned: The Revolutionary Life of the Black Bookstore. A major point of emphasis is that White Supremacists have invested extraordinary time and energy for centuries to prohibit black people from reading and studying about Racism. Consequently, black bookstores were key targets of Racist counterintelligence programs and sabotage. Adams' book was directly inspired by a 2016 report from Davis, The FBI's War on Black-Owned Bookstores. Gus hoped to discuss Davis' 2020 publication, From Head Shops to Whole Foods: The Rise and Fall of Activist Entrepreneurs. This book as a while chapter discussing the obstacles and labor of black bookstore owners. However, Dr. Davis requested to focus on his 2025 publication, Police Against the Movement: The Sabotage of the Civil Rights Struggle and the Activists Who Fought Back. This important work examines how local police departments sabotage and spy on black people who attempt counter-racism. Examinations of the FBI's COINTELPRO program often fail to examine the separate local surveillance operations which also labored to neutralize any counter-racist effort of non-white people. This book reveals many examples of White people lying by willfully concealing information. #TheGlassHouseTapes #TheCOWS16Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

No music, no fluff, just a careful walk through what's visible on multiple videos, what the law allows, and what ethics demand when power meets the public.We lay out the confirmed facts: legal concealed carry in a permit-friendly state, a licensed nurse who never drew his weapon, and a rapid escalation that ends with multiple shots fired into someone turned away with a phone in his hand. From there, we bring frontline experience into the conversation—hospital de-escalation training, the cues professionals are taught to read, and the higher standard we expect from officers trained to control risk without lethal force. The goal isn't to inflame; it's to clarify. When headlines muddy the picture with “wait for the facts,” we ask which facts actually matter and which talking points are designed to distract.This story doesn't live in a vacuum. Communities of color have warned about similar encounters for years, often without the visibility that video brings. We connect the dots between policy and character, between what's legal and what's right, and between public outrage and the slow work of accountability. If you care about use of force, protest rights, ICE operations, VA standards, and what de-escalation should look like in practice, you'll find a grounded, human-centered breakdown here.If the momentum after viral tragedies keeps fading, nothing changes.

    The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the 3rd study session on Char Adams' Black-Owned: The Revolutionary Life of the Black Bookstore. Published in 2025, Adams' new book made a number of lists for top books of the year. Listed as an "award-winning journalist, editor, and storyteller for NBC News, known for her work on race, identity, and inequitable systems," Adams is a lovely black female, Victim of Racism. This book examines the history of people classified as black in the area of the world known as the US. Specifically, Adams investigates how black people have responded to the System of White Supremacy through the lens of bookstores owned and operated by black people. C.O.W.S. listeners should know that White Supremacists have invested immense time and energy to ensure that black people do not read or have access to books. So, black bookstores must be heavily targeted places. Last week, we learned about the demise of Drum & Spear Bookstore in Washington, D.C. and Martin Sostre's now defunct Afro Asian Book Shop in Buffalo's Eastside. This shop was located on Jefferson Avenue less than 800 feet from the future TOPS Market where 10 black people would be killed in a 2022 White Terrorist attack. Adams also details Liberation Bookstore in Harlem, Hakim's Book's in Philadelphia, and Vaughn's Book Store in Detroit. All of these locations were assumed to be hubs of black "extremism" and subject to FBI surveillance and Racist thuggery. #COINTELPRO #TheCOWS16Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

This is a powerful and deeply human conversation for anyone touched by serious mental illness.

    Heather McGhee is a leading expert in economic and social policy and the New York Times–bestselling author of The Sum of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone and How We Can Prosper Together. A former president of the think tank Demos, McGhee is a frequent commentator on national affairs and now serves as chair of the board of Color of Change, the nation's largest online racial justice organization. McGhee explores one of the central tragedies of American life: how a majority of white Americans have historically chosen to "drain the public pool," both literally and metaphorically, rather than share it with Black and brown Americans. This zero-sum, winner-take-all politics has left the nation less prosperous, less safe, less humane, and concentrated extraordinary wealth and power in the hands of plutocrats while undermining the American Dream for everyone else. She also reflects on the enduring lessons of the Black Freedom Struggle for resisting authoritarianism and building a more inclusive and democratic future in the Age of Trump and beyond. In this special Martin Luther King Jr. Day episode, Chauncey shares Dr. King's sermon on navigating fear in dark and dangerous times. WHERE CAN YOU FIND ME?

She traveled the country talking to factory workers, homeowners who'd lost everything, organizers, and scholars, trying to understand where that belief comes from, and what it costs us. This MLK Day, McGhee spoke with Tonya Mosley about this and how it comes on the heels of President Trump's comments that civil rights protections resulted in white people being “very badly treated.” McGhee's book is ‘The Sum of Us.'  Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
