The Context of White Supremacy hosts the Counter-Racist Weekly Review 08/29/26. This broadcast examines current events from across the globe to learn what's happening in all areas of people activity. We cultivate Counter-Racist Media Literacy by scrutinizing journalists' word choices and using logic to deconstruct what is reported as "news." We'll use these sessions to hone our use of terms as tools to reveal truth and neutralize Racists/White people. #ANTIBLACKNESS **Wisconsin Race Soliders Hoarding Skulls Again**: A White Man in Fond Du Lac, Wisconsin. FOX11 News reports that 47-year-old Benjamin Larson's was arrested after authorities "found many disturbing items, including books, documents and memorabilia related to murders and serial killers. Skeletal remains, including many apparent human skulls, were also found." Jeff Dahmer, Max Anderson, White Culture. **Sade C. Robinson**: Larson arrest and stash of human remains dramatically underscores Gus's ongoing efforts to obtain all public records related to the criminal case of Sade C. Robinson. At this juncture, Milwaukee courthouse Race Soldiers Judge Laura Crivella, court reporter Julie Persinger and their Racist courthouse lackeys continue to obstruct Justice. **Was Dr. Frances Cress Welsing correct about Recreational Cannabis?**: We'll review a WNYC segment where New York Times' Roni Caryn Rabin details a new JAMA study showing a growing number of US residents are self-reporting cannabis addiction and dependency. The great Neely Fuller Jr. warned non-white people about letting others (especially Racists) increase our needs. **Brain Damage & The NFL**: A sobering new report shows that at least 25% of NFL players in this study tested positive for CTE (brain damage). The most important aspect of this report is that more than half the players who did not test positive for CTE did not have their brain tested at all. Thus, the number of players with brain damage is logically much higher. Some NFL analysts speculate this sort of info could eventually end tackle football. #TheCOWS17Years #JusticeForSade #EmmettLouisTill #CounterRacism #GlobalWhiteSupremacy #BenjaminLarson #CTE FondDuLac #Wisconsin #Milwaukee #Cannabis #PennState Call-In Number: 720.716.7300 Code: 564943#

The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Dr. Allison Phipps live from the UK. Classified as a White Woman, Dr. Phipps is the Professor of Political Sociology and Associate Head of Social Sciences, Politics and IR, and Religion at York St. John University. Her research examines: “gender with interests in feminist theory and politics, the body and violence, and racial capitalism.” We'll discuss her 2026 publication, Sexual Violence in Racial Capitalism. Gus was supremely eager to read this book, thinking it would be a scientific, accurate analysis of how White Women and White Men sexually terrorize non-white people. Phipps offers nothing of the sort. A massive chunk of this text is devoted to White Women as victims of patriarchy. Phipps completely erases the sexual abuse of black and non-white males to focus on White female victims and White Men's sewering of non-white females. She relies on heaps of sloppy metaphors and ahistorical ideas - such as black males being thought of as beastly rapists during the chattel slavery era. Dr. Phipps readily agreed with Gus' definition of White Supremacy and acknowledged that is logical to suspect that is a Racist. However, once Gus began to point out the contradictions in her text - like saying black males are "co-opted" patriarchs and simultaneously ungendered subjects of White Supremacy, she hung up the phone and ran like a cowardly thief in the night. #TheCOWS17Years #MaryKayLetourneau #JonBurge #JeffreyDahmer #CounterRacism #TheDelectableNegro #GlobalWhiteSupremacy #TheManNot Call-In Number: 720.716.7300 Code: 564943#

We'll use these sessions to hone our use of terms as tools to reveal truth and neutralize Racists/White people. #ANTIBLACKNESS **The Weaponization of the Legal System & State Torture: We provide an immediate, vital update on the Sade C. Robinson email campaign and the institutional fraud operating inside the Milwaukee County courthouse. We break down the ex-parte shadow docket maneuvers executed by court reporting personnel to insulate defense counsel, and highlight the historical significance of our active state appellate Writ of Mandamus (Case No. D1 26AP1945-W) and federal records filings. We contrast the systematic conversion of pre-paid public transcript fees with the metropolitan police force's rapid, seven-day delivery of massive criminal dossiers to expose targeted record suppression under the color of authority. **Systemic Educational Exclusion & Corporate Drug Trafficking: We deconstruct the explosive national and regional press accounts documenting the multi-kilo fraternity cocaine-trafficking ring dismantled at Penn State University. We evaluate how two historically white Greek organizations—Sigma Chi and Delta Upsilon—utilized physical houses as unmonitored processing plants and forced pledges to package raw brick narcotics under the sanitized media label of "hazing indoctrination." We analyze the absolute White Power displayed by elite white dealers who resisted armed arrest because they assumed a major federal drug raid was a playful frat prank. Furthermore, we expose the intergenerational protective shield deployed by a high-powered, White corporate attorney father who crossed county lines to remove a secure narcotics vault to obstruct state investigators, and contrast this institutional immunity with the immediate, closed-fist state violence unleashed against Black teenagers over minor, everyday infractions. **The Architecture of Mass Surveillance & Digital Displacement: We track the systemic pattern of the "White Woman Outlaw" inside law enforcement infrastructure, analyzing the criminal arrest and $100,000 bond of former Jackson Police Department 911 dispatcher Taylor Williams. We expose how back-office clerical operators systematically weaponize their access to restricted law enforcement database streams to leak sensitive investigative files and shield active criminal networks from state tracking. We connect this administrative deviance right alongside historical precedents like Mary Ann Twitty in Ferguson and Becky Hill in South Carolina to prove that clerical networks are routinely used to maintain total control over public information under the color of authority. **Immigration Terror & Local Community Resistance: We investigate the ongoing structural blackouts and Jackson residents rally surrounding the highly suspicious hanging death of Tasia Fortune in Jackson, Miss. We evaluate the local municipal response and compare the regional timeline directly against the unexplainable, suspicious death of Nolan Wells in the exact same geographic region. #TheCOWS17Years #RobertAndMabelWilliams #MilitaryIntelligence #CounterRacism #RadioFreeDixie #GlobalWhiteSupremacy #NaziPOWs #StockadeDeception #MonroeNC Call-In Number: 720.716.7300 Code: 564943#

It's my honor to welcome Dr. Emmaia Gelman back to Speaking Out of Place. Today we will be discussing her new book, The Anti-Defamation League and the Racial State. This massive and detailed work of history argues that the Anti-Defamation League, popularly known as a civil rights organization fighting White Supremacy and anti-Semitism, is better understood as promoting a particular set of interests. The ADL is seen consistently promoting an intensely individualistic notion of rights while undermining and attacking structural critiques of racism, thereby preserving the colonial project. More and more, the ADL's interests construct Jewishness as synonymous with Zionism, and its exclusive aim is to fuse three keywords: hate, terrorism, and anti-Semitism, in order to suppress anti-Zionist activism, preserve the on-going genocide and expand the Zionist state. This is a book that demands attention if we are to understand the US-Israel nexus which has brought us the war on Iran, and repressed dissent.Emmaia Gelman is the author of The Anti-Defamation League and the Racial State, a critical history of the Anti-Defamation League as a Cold War neoconservative institution (UC Press, 2026) and co-editor of The Anti-Defamation League: A Critical Reader (Pluto Press, 2026). She co-hosts the podcast Unpacking Zionism. Emmaia is co-chair of the American Studies Association Caucus on Academic and Community Activism, and a longtime activist in New York City.She is the founding director of the Institute for the Critical Study of Zionism, which examines the political and ideological work of Zionist institutions in Palestine and transnational contexts. She researches the history of ideas about race, queerness, safety, and rights, and their production as levers in surveillance, “anti-terror”, and war. Her teaching spans academic and community spaces.

Robinson: Gus's sudden illness delayed the sharing of information with listeners about what has been going on at the Milwaukee County Courthouse. Julie Persinger, Judge Laura Crivello and the White Wisconsin gang has engaged in 4 months of lying, obstruction and Racism to withhold public records. Gus T. is working to maintain relentless pressure on the Racist goons to force the release of records pertaining to the death of Sade C. Robinson. The Suspicious Mississippi Deaths of Nolan Wells and Tasia Fortune: We hear updates on the tragic and bizarre death of black teen Nolan Wells. No one has been charged with is death, and his surviving White friends insist they are in danger from online threats and false allegations. We also review the suspicious death of Tasia Fortune, a black mother of four in Jackson, Mississippi. She is reported to have hung herself from a tree at an abandoned house. This seems like a massively suspicious event in a region with a long - and current - history of murdered black people being labeled as suicide deaths. Lack of Reading for Black Children During the Summer: A Louisiana report examines the "summer slide," where many black children shut their brain computers down during the summer months and, consequently, experience atrophy with reading comprehension and language skills after 3 good months of Netflixing and YouTube. Educators recommend summer book clubs to encourage children to continue reading while away from school. Gus suggests having your children join you for the Katherine Massey Book Club every Friday. We sometimes read young adult works. #TheCOWS17Years #NolanWells #TasiaFortune #MilitaryIntelligence #CounterRacism #GlobalWhiteSupremacy #JasonArday #TheManNot #SadeCRobinson #ReadingIsMoreImportantThanWatchingTelevision Call-In Number: 720.716.7300 Code: 564943#

The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Andy McPhee. A former critical care nurse and educational healthcare publisher, Andy McPhee, who's classified as a White Man, has also written four nonfiction books for young adults and written or edited more than 750 newspaper and magazine articles. We'll discuss his 2026 publication, The Doctor's Riot of 1788: Body Snatching, Bloodletting, and Anatomy in America. McPhee examines a 1788 melee caused by New Yorkers discovering a White Woman's corpse had been stolen. We use this event to examine the White Supremacist history of looting black burial grounds. Gus T.'s beloved Medical Apartheid, written by the genius Harriet A. Washington, devotes a meaty section to the well-recorded history of Whites' stealing black bodies for experimental and anatomical purposes. Washington tells us that White medical colleges were often strategically located in regions with high populations of black people. During our discussion, we deconstructed how the historical practice of White people stealing black bodies continues in the 21st century with a highly unregulated international trade in body parts.This provides context for the missing skull of Sade C. Robinson as well as the missing organs of Kendrick Johnson in Georgia. Gus T. made a point to ask Mr. McPhee why he used the term "niggling" to describe a scene of conflict in the text. After initially pretending he quoted someone else, McPhee admitted this was his word choice alone. He offered many unsolicited apologies and said he likes to think of himself as an "anti-racist." He easily conceded that niggling is mighty close to niggras. Fuller does explicitly suggest that we avoid terms like "negative" & "negate" because these terms are phonetically and semantically similar to the Racist insult reserved for black people. #TheCOWS17Years #Philadelphia #BodySnatcher #CounterRacism #Niggling #GlobalWhiteSupremacy #NewYork #ShawnUtsey #ChrisBaker #GrandisonHarris #HarvardMedicalSchool #Strapping #JeffreyDahmer #Oddities Call-In Number: 720.716.7300 Code: 564943#

The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Racist Suspect Greg Garrett. Classified as a White Man, Garrett is a long time professor at Baylor University in Texas and the author of dozens of books which examine different areas of the System of White Supremacy. We'll discuss his 2026 text, White Lies: Dismantling Ten Cultural Myths About Race, This text alleges to examine various "myths" that White people tell themselves about Racism. Gus noted that the terms "lies" and "myths" are not synonymous and have substantially different meanings. White people fabircate a variety of lies to maintain the System of White Supremacy. Gus highlighted how that White people like Garrett cannot be ignorant about Racism - he detailed that his White mother and grandmother early on discussed how White men and White Women are expected to behave to maintain White Power. Gus also challenged the notion of "separation" between White people and non-white people. Since generations of people classified as White have bragged about sexually abusing black people, it's ahistorical and dishonest to suggest that White people remain far away from black people. To further evidence this point, Garrett details how he and a large cohort of other Whites - some of them classified as LGBTQ (antisex) have invaded St. James Baptist Church in Austin, Texas. This is a historically black church, and its White influx matches the city-wide spike in White residents. Garrett tells us that none of the black church members have ever chided him for Racist conduct, and, like a young Jeff Dahmer, he enjoys an unchallenged reputation as a kindly, not Racist White Man. Gus branded him a Racist Suspect early and often for his trifling book and faux allegations of victimhood. #TheCOWS17Years #WhiteLies #BaylorUniversity #PatrickDennehy #JamesByrdJr #Waco #JesseWashington #CounterRacism # #GlobalWhiteSupremacy #Oklahoma Call-In Number: 720.716.7300 Code: 564943#

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the Counter-Racist Weekly Review 08/01/26. This broadcast examines current events from across the globe to learn what's happening in all areas of people activity. We cultivate Counter-Racist Media Literacy by scrutinizing journalists' word choices and using logic to deconstruct what is reported as "news." We'll use these sessions to hone our use of terms as tools to reveal truth and neutralize Racists/White people. #ANTIBLACKNESS This week, we analyze systemic violence, educational exclusion, state surveillance, and the ongoing war on Black autonomy: **The Weaponization of the Legal System & State Torture: We deconstruct the "not every tragedy is a crime" rhetoric shielding suspects as the high-profile murder trial continues. We directly link the new subpoenas issued in the Nolan Wells death probe to this week's Texas grand jury indictment in the horrific drowning death of Daniel Erving. We contrast these ongoing investigations with the rare legal choice given to Ivy Kelly after spending decades behind bars, and scrutinize the systemic gun violence crisis that leaves thousands dead while White Men and Women refuse to act. **Systemic Educational Exclusion & Historical Erasure: We examine the deliberate bottlenecks of elite schooling as statistics reveal only three Black students gained entry into Stuyvesant High School this year. We couple this extreme exclusion with a massive lawsuit filed against the Park City School District, alongside Utah's holiday honoring a Native American massacre. We apply counter-racist logic to show how public education and state histories are structured to maintain white dominance while marginalizing non-white youth. **The Architecture of Mass Surveillance & Digital Displacement: We track the rapid expansion of the corporate surveillance grid, investigating whether Flock safety cameras are actively spying on Southern California residents. We analyze these tracking mechanisms alongside the growing renter-owner wealth gap, which is wider than ever and pricing non-white families completely out of the market. We expose how municipal surveillance and economic warfare work in tandem to monitor, control, and financially displace non-white populations. **Immigration Terror, Global Deportation, & Political Theater: We confront the overt white supremacy within federal enforcement, analyzing leaked footage that shows immigration agents using racial slurs during raids targeting Latinos. We examine the sports entertainment industry's intersection with state violence as we review how Kenya's first NFL player, Daniel Adongo, was likely given CTE and then deported by the Trump administration. Finally, we expose the hypocrisy of the White House pushing healthy eating while simultaneously cutting landmark federal nutrition education programs. #EndStageWhiteSupremacy #TheCOWS17Years #CounterRacism #MediaLiteracy #DanielErving #NolanWells #IvyKelly #DanielAdongo #StuyvesantHigh #FlockSafety Call-In Number: 720.716.7300 Code: 564943#

Welcome back to The Majority Report On today's program: For the last three years until his death Lindsey Graham was the subject of a documentary and some of the footage has been released to the Wall Street Journal. The footage shows Graham celebrating the start of the war on Iran like it's the Knicks championship. Another clip shows Lindsey on the phone with Benjamin Netanyahu discussing Graham going to Mar-A-Lago to convince Trump to join Israel in attacks on Lebanon. Writer Devin Thomas O'Shea joins Sam in a pre-taped interview for a conversation about his book. "The Veiled Prophet: Secret Societies, White Supremacy and the Struggles for St. Louis". In the Fun Half: Trump bombs spectacularly at the White House Correspondents Dinner. A Canadian politician accidentally reads the AI prompt that he used to draft a speech for him. Fox News airs a segment explaining who Hasan Piker intended to scare their geriatric audience, spending time on his "Mao-like suit" he wore while addressing a young Democrat event. David Pakman echoes the same sentiment towards Hasan Piker and his Mao suit as Fox News Haley Stevens deflects from discussing the tens of millions of dollars of out-of-state dark money her campaign has received by victimizing herself over being the subject of internet mockery. Senator Chris Van Hollen rallies for Abdul El-Sayed and laughs at an audience member calling for Chuck Schumer to be replaced. all that and more.

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the Counter-Racist Weekly Review 07/25/26. This broadcast examines current events from across the globe to learn what's happening in all areas of people activity. We cultivate Counter-Racist Media Literacy by scrutinizing journalists' word choices and using logic to deconstruct what is reported as "news." We'll use these sessions to hone our use of terms as tools to reveal truth and neutralize Racists/White people. #ANTIBLACKNESS This week, we analyze the global distribution of resource extraction, judicial shielding of white killers, and institutionalized state violence: The Geopolitics of Resource Extraction: We dissect the strategic maneuvers surrounding the massive $25 billion Nigeria-Morocco Gas Pipeline project designed to power West Africa. We look at BBC World Service reports tracking the economic and infrastructural warfare dictating energy grids across the African continent, contrasting this with international developments where Spain shattered Argentina's World Cup dreams. We apply counter-racist logic to show how global white power interests control and redirect indigenous non-white wealth. Judicial Shielding & State-Sanctioned Execution: We investigate the rapid legal protections afforded to white youth killers as Colt Gray enters a guilty plea following state school violence. We contrast this systemic buffering with horrific reports of a 78-year-old Decatur female who overdosed on fentanyl following an alleged police blunder, alongside breaking cases where Baltimore police investigate an active "hate crime" in Fells Point. We expose how the courts work concurrently with enforcement wings to shield White Supremacist perpetrators while leaving black victims entirely unprotected. The Industry of Clemency & Corporate Surveillance Grids: We decode the growing industry of presidential pardons where massive bribes—including $600 for a presidential pardon—are weaponized within the federal clemency complex. We couple this with local news reports tracking a municipal deputy sheriff accused of systemic corruption in Bucks County, exposing how legal and administrative offices are engineered together to commodify justice while weaponizing municipal resources against non-white autonomy. The Erasure of Black Historical Reality: We break down the absolute peak of state hypocrisy out of Illinois where Governor JB Pritzker signs a law officially designating July 25 as Emmett Till Day. We analyze this symbolic political performance alongside breaking Madison, Wisconsin reports where a black male was shot and killed by police, sparking intense community protests and forcing Corey Ruiz's family to make public calls for basic justice. We deconstruct how The System uses hollow holidays and cosmetic benefits to distract the collective from ongoing state executions on the concrete. #EndStageWhiteSupremacy #TheCOWS17Years #CounterRacism #MediaLiteracy #EmmettTillDay #ColtGray #DanielErving #NolanWells INVEST in The COWS!

On this week's Neutralizing Workplace Racism, we confront a devastating surge of economic warfare, structural negligence, and physical violence targeting Black and non-white employees. As the summer heat intensifies, corporate entities and state actors are shifting liabilities directly onto the backs of non-white workers. We break down the explosive new legal filings and news reports that track the systematic destruction of safety and security on the clock: 1. The Milwaukee Garbage Truck Explosion: We dissect the horrific incident where a city sanitation worker suffered severe eye injuries after improperly disposed oxygen tanks exploded during the truck's compacting process. We look past the administrative public relations to analyze the extreme, unpredictable physical hazards shifted directly onto laborers on the ground. 2. The Wisconsin DWD Fake Hearing Scam: We expose a sophisticated multi-state fraud campaign targeted primarily at Spanish-speaking injured laborers. Fraudsters staged elaborate, fake online workers' compensation "hearings"—complete with fake judges and bailiffs—to steal over $30,000 in bogus legal fees, demonstrating the ruthless victimization of non-white workers navigating administrative systems. 3. The Punjabi Immigrant Trucker Purge: We scrutinize President Donald Trump's aggressive proposal to explicitly replace 130,000 undocumented immigrant truck drivers—heavily consisting of Punjabi and Sikh workers—with American military veterans. We deconstruct this economic warfare to reveal how the state manipulates labor pipelines to strip independent livelihood away from targeted non-white communities. 4. The Nursing Shortage Gender Initiative: We evaluate a university's targeted campaign rolling out a "welcome mat" to actively recruit men into the nursing field amid a structural healthcare staffing shortage. We look at the systemic maneuvers that prioritize gender-balancing corporate initiatives over addressing the hyper-exploitative working environments on the floor. 5. The North County Restaurant Citation: We break down the camera footage and subsequent citation of a local establishment after an employee exploitation probe. We analyze the transactional mechanics of customer-facing environments where small businesses cut corners on safety and wage compliance, trapping non-white staff in volatile conditions. 6. The DeKalb County Sheriff Hostile Environment Verdict: We examine the federal jury verdict finding DeKalb County Sheriff Melody Maddox guilty of creating a sexually hostile work environment for female jailers. We deconstruct the toxic institutional defense narrative that told female guards being subjected to sexual acts and rape threats by inmates was just "part of the job," highlighting the complete failure of management accountability. 7. The Ignored Shooter Warning Logs: We dissect unsealed email records revealing that a workplace shooter explicitly warned corporate management about escalating, volatile friction long before opening fire. This tragedy stands as a grim validation of our thesis: corporate management will willfully ignore everyday hostility and unaddressed HR complaints until they boil over into bloodshed. Between infrastructure explosions, fraudulent legal proceedings, structural economic purges, and unheeded workplace warnings, survival remains your only valid metric of success. Your absolute priority on the clock is no longer corporate validation or climbing a rigged ladder—it is implementing a strict "Workplace Matters Only" code, maintaining absolute silence on personal affairs, and limiting your daily footprint to survive your shift alive and in one piece. #SurviveYourShift #SafetyFirst #TheCOWS17Years #CounterRacism #WorkplaceViolence INVEST in The COWS!

House Oversight hearing exposed just how far the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History has fallen — and Reps. Brandon Gill and Tim Burchett made sure the whole country saw it. Gill's now-viral exchange with Director Anthea Hartig, catching her defending a "toolkit" that lists politeness as a marker of "white supremacy culture," was one of the most devastating moments in a congressional hearing in years. Burchett's questioning on inappropriate content pushed on children was just as damning.Hartig couldn't answer basic questions about her own institution's materials because there's no honest answer to give. This is a taxpayer-funded museum that has decided the values that built the greatest civilization in human history — order, family, hard work, objectivity, courtesy — are something to be pathologized rather than celebrated.Join me as I break down the full hearing, why Western and white culture built the modern world's freedoms and prosperity, and why the Smithsonian's leadership needs to be held accountable — or replaced.Join me LIVE right after the open-access show.

Today we're talking about white supremacy and how attractive the movement is to members of high control religions. We also discuss what we can do to combat the white supremacist movement. Then we discuss the 2024 movie The Order, a true story about the violent white supremacist movement started by Robert Mathews in the mid 1980's. Following that, we cover some excellent news about NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani funding the NYC public school system with $67.5M for special education classes after the federal government cut funding.

What really happened to hatred in America after World War II?Most of us were taught that defeating Hitler marked a turning point — that America emerged from the war more tolerant, more unified, more committed to its democratic ideals. Historian Steven J. Ross is here to tell us that story is a myth. And he has the documents to prove it.In this episode, Rabbi Yoshi sits down with one of America's most compelling Jewish historians to discuss Ross's new book, The Secret War Against Hate: American Resistance to Antisemitism and White Supremacy — a USA Today bestseller that uncovers a hidden chapter of postwar American history. When the war ended, antisemitism and racism didn't recede. They surged. Organized hate groups more than doubled between 1940 and 1946, and a network of domestic terrorists set about — in their own words — finishing the job Hitler had begun.But that's only half the story. The other half is about the people who fought back: the citizen-spies recruited by the ADL, the American Jewish Committee, and the Anti-Nazi League, who infiltrated these groups at great personal risk and brought their dangerous work to light. Their names have been largely forgotten. Ross gives them back to us.Rabbi Yoshi and Steve talk about the history, what it illuminates about this moment in American Jewish life, and — in true Search for Meaning fashion — where a man who has spent his career in some of the darkest chapters of human experience still finds hope and meaning.About Steven J. RossSteven J. Ross is Dean's Professor of History at the University of Southern California and the Myron and Marian Casden Director of the Casden Institute for the Study of the Jewish Role in American Life. The first person in his family to go to college, he holds degrees from Columbia, Oxford, and Princeton.His books include Hitler in Los Angeles: How Jews Foiled Nazi Plots Against Hollywood and America, a Pulitzer Prize finalist and Los Angeles Times bestseller; Hollywood Left and Right: How Movie Stars Shaped American Politics, winner of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' Film Scholars Award; and Working-Class Hollywood: Silent Film and the Shaping of Class in America, nominated for both the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award.His latest book is The Secret War Against Hate: American Resistance to Antisemitism and White Supremacy (Bloomsbury, 2026).More at his USC Dornsife faculty page: https://dornsife.usc.edu/profile/steve-ross/Learn about the book at https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/secret-war-against-hate-9781635578003/
The Context of White Supremacy hosts the Counter-Racist Weekly Review 07/18/26: The "My White Friends" / "Not All White People Are Racist" Edition. This broadcast examines current events from across the globe to learn what's happening in all areas of people activity. We cultivate Counter-Racist Media Literacy by scrutinizing journalists' word choices and using logic to deconstruct what is reported as "news." We'll use these sessions to hone our use of terms as tools to reveal truth and neutralize Racists/White people. #ANTIBLACKNESS This week, we analyze the fatal consequences of non-white proximity to whiteness, institutional theft, and state-sanctioned violence: The Myth of the Protective White Friend Circle: We dissect the horrific reality of Black victims who perished while surrounded by individuals they considered friends. We look at the ongoing grief of Nolan Wells' family as they demand transparency into his death on a remote Mississippi island, alongside the parents of Daniel Erving who are demanding murder charges following evidence tampering arrests in his drowning. We apply counter-racist logic to show why non-white people cannot afford the delusion of safety among groups of white peers. The Desecration of Sade Robinson's Legacy: We investigate the sickening development out of Milwaukee where the family of murdered 19-year-old Sade Robinson discovered her remaining personal belongings were stolen from a storage facility. We deconstruct the unique malice required to targetedly pillage the estate of a dismembered Black youth, exposing a system that denies peace to Black victims even after death. Mental Health Crisis Executive Executions: We break down a disturbing Memphis task force incident where agents shot and killed a Black male who was undergoing an active mental health crisis. We contrast this state violence with New York reports tracking the systematic theft of SNAP benefits from impoverished residents, proving that the legal and enforcement wings of the system operate concurrently to deplete Black life and livelihood. The Illiteracy Pipeline & Digital Control: We decode PBS News segments detailing why fewer Americans are reading for pleasure in a "post-literate age" alongside the rapid expansion of automated "Flock" surveillance cameras in local communities. We analyze how municipal surveillance grids and cognitive regression are engineered together to weaponize public spaces against non-white autonomy. INVEST in The COWS!

The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts Session 2 on The Memoirs of Robert and Mabel Williams: African American Freedom, Armed Resistance, and International Solidarity. After launching our premier broadcast last week, we step deeper into the primary-source reality of Monroe, North Carolina, reading through the foundational chapters of this newly compiled text. This week, we analyze the systematic enforcement of white supremacy through the routine, state-sanctioned rape and sexual abuse of Black females by Racistman. We confront the raw frustration Robert Williams expressed regarding the compliance and refusal of local black males to engage in organized physical retaliation or defensive force to stop these violations. Furthermore, we investigate Williams' early implementation of strategic counter-violence through the secretive X-32 group. We apply counter-racist logic to deconstruct how this clandestine network weaponized fear to directly challenge and neutralize White Men who wronged Black people, shattering the myth of non-violent submission. We back up this broadcast by examining these historical models of armed self-defense against a global System of White Supremacy.

Email us: Will@faithfulpoliticspodcast.comHow did white Southern evangelicals use the Bible to defend segregation after slavery ended?J. Russell “Rusty” Hawkins, Dean of the John Wesley Honors College and Professor of Honors Humanities and History at Indiana Wesleyan University, joins Will Wright and Pastor Josh Burtram to explain the theological arguments behind Jim Crow Christianity. Hawkins, author of The Bible Told Them So, shows how white evangelicals read stories like Babel, Levitical separation laws, Acts 17, and Revelation as evidence that God intended racial separation. The conversation moves through the Civil War as a theological crisis, Brown v. Board of Education, Christian colleges, Bob Jones University, local church resistance, and the rise of “colorblindness” as a religious argument against integration. This episode matters because it shows that segregation was not defended only through politics or culture. For many Christians, it was defended as biblical truth, which should make today's believers more humble about certainty.Guest BioJ. Russell “Rusty” Hawkins is Dean of the John Wesley Honors College and Professor of Honors Humanities and History at Indiana Wesleyan University. He is the author of The Bible Told Them So: How Southern Evangelicals Fought to Preserve White Supremacy, published by Oxford University Press in 2021, and co-editor of Christians and the Color Line: Race and Religion after Divided by Faith. His work focuses on religion, race, white evangelicalism, segregation, and the civil rights era, making him a strong guide for understanding how theology shaped resistance to racial equality in American life.Book MentionedThe Bible Told Them So: How Southern Evangelicals Fought to Preserve White Supremacy by J.

Is mainstream history a record of objective fact, or is it a calculated tool designed to protect the System of White Suprermacy?

Robert P. Jones, founder and president of PRRI and author of White Too Long, The Hidden Roots of White Supremacy, and the forthcoming Backslide, joins Will Wright and Pastor Josh Burtram to examine how white Christianity shaped slavery, segregation, public memory, and American democracy. Jones traces the story through his own Southern Baptist family history, the denominational splits over slavery, the religious defense of the Confederacy, lynching, the Lost Cause, segregation academies, and the long refusal of many white Christians to fully repent of white supremacy. The conversation also looks at why terms like “white Christian” and “white evangelical” are uncomfortable but necessary, and how racial identity still shapes religious and political behavior. This episode asks a hard question: if Christians once used the Bible to justify slavery and Jim Crow, what are Christians being asked to confront now?Guest BioRobert P. Jones, PhD, is the president and founder of Public Religion Research Institute, known as PRRI, and a New York Times bestselling author. His work examines the intersection of religion, race, politics, democracy, and American identity.

Aryan Brotherhood leader, Michael Thompson, reveals what life was really like inside California's most violent prisons — from Old Folsom and San Quentin to the rise of The Brand, prison gang politics, violence, survival, and ultimately walking away. In this explosive interview, he breaks down how the Aryan Brotherhood gained power behind the walls, how prison gangs controlled money, drugs, alcohol, protection, and violence, and why the California prison system of the 1970s was unlike anything seen today. He also opens up about growing up on a Native reservation, being recruited inside prison, surviving brutal conflicts, getting shot multiple times, building influence within the AB, and the moment he decided to leave that life behind. This is a rare inside look at the Aryan Brotherhood, Old Folsom Prison, prison gang history, redemption, and the reality of surviving decades behind bars. Go Support Michael!

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the Counter-Racist Weekly Review 07/11/26. This broadcast examines current events from across the globe to learn what's happening in all areas of people activity. We cultivate Counter-Racist Media Literacy by scrutinizing journalists' word choices and using logic to deconstruct what is reported as "news." We'll use these sessions to hone our use of terms as tools to reveal truth and neutralize Racists/White people. #ANTIBLACKNESS This week, we analyze the global enforcement of institutional deception, judicial manipulation, and targeted state terror: 1. **The Nolan Wells Horn Island Tragedy:** We dissect the horrific case of 18-year-old Nolan Xavier Wells, found dead on Mississippi's Gulf Coast after an outing where he was the only Black individual present. We deconstruct the deceptive media framing and law enforcement tactics attempting to label the death an accidental drowning, analyzing how the system coordinates to insulate surviving white peers from accountability. #WhiteFriends 2. **The Sabotage of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA):** Marking the 60th anniversary of this landmark transparency law, we look at the federal government's aggressive campaign to block document disclosure. We link this structural obstruction directly to Gus T's recent, stalled FOIA requests regarding the surveillance and tracking of Dr. Frances Cress Welsing and Neely Fuller Jr., revealing how the state systematically hides records to suppress counter-racist intelligence. 3. **Exoneration Hypocrisy and Judicial Realities:** We analyze Kansas City and NPR reports detailing the extreme structural hurdles wrongfully convicted inmates face when trying to access basic post-conviction resources. We contrast this systemic stagnation with the legacy of privileged black male Philando Castile a decade after his murder, demonstrating how the legal apparatus protects its agents while actively denying restoration to victims of judicial warfare. 4. **Chemical Contamination and Narrative Warfare:** We decode global reports—from the suppression of "super" cannabis imports entering England to the rolling back of firearms regulations and weaponized accusations of "extreme political activism" targeting the Smithsonian. We apply counter-racist logic to show how legislative rollbacks, chemical distribution, and cultural propaganda are managed concurrently to maintain structural dominance over non-white populations. #EndStageWhiteSupremacy #CounterRacism #MediaLiteracy #NolanWells #TheCOWS INVEST in The COWS: - PayPal: [http://paypal.me/TheCOWS](http://paypal.me/TheCOWS) - Cash App: [https://cash.app/$TheCOWS](https://cash.app/$TheCOWS) #SurviveYourShift #SafetyFirst #TheCOWS17Years #CounterRacism Call-In Number: 720.716.7300 Code: 564943#
The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. debuts Session 1 on The Memoirs of Robert and Mabel Williams: African American Freedom, Armed Resistance, and International Solidarity. The Biography Kings have officially returned to primary-source reality. After a grueling 12-week forensic audit dismantling the sanitized academic distortions of The New Jim Crow, we wash our hands of corporate non-profit "Race Management" and return to the uncompromised gold standard of Black revolutionary history. This newly compiled text features previously unpublished, first-person manuscripts written by both Robert and Mabel Williams. Crucially, the text is co-edited by definitive historian Dr. Akinyele Umoja, who has been a featured guest on our program twice for his masterwork We Will Shoot Back. More than a decade after our comprehensive review of the foundational text Negroes With Guns, we step back into the trenches of Monroe, North Carolina, to trace how the Williamses organized armed self-defense guards to repel Ku Klux Klan motorcades.Most importantly, this joint memoir shatters the provincial limits of typical domestic political discourse. While much of mainstream, so-called "Black Nationalist" dialogue remains hyper-focused exclusively on lines drawn within the borders of the United States, Robert and Mabel Williams intentionally target a global System of White Supremacy. We analyze their strategic political exile, tracking their underground international solidarity networks from the shortwave transmissions of Radio Free Dixie in Havana, Cuba, straight to elite anti-colonial alliances in Beijing, China. We back up this premiere broadcast by deploying a multi-layered, twin-engine audio intro featuring Dr. Umoja's previous C.O.W.S. guidance stacked back-to-back with raw, shortwave archive broadcasts of Robert and Mabel themselves.

Is mass incarceration the result of an accidental, top-down policy oversight, or is it driven by targeted, bottom-up racial warfare on the ground? In this episode, we sit down with scholar and author Andrew Baer to discuss his critical historical text, Beyond the Usual Beating: The Jon Burge Police Torture Scandal and Social Movements for Police Accountability in Chicago. We dismantle the safe academic myths of "colorblindness" to expose how street-level white foot soldiers in Chicago actively deployed explicit anti-Black racial terror completely independent of Washington policy directives. We interrogate the literal, physical machinery used in Area 2 and Area 3 precincts—including cattle prods and hand-cranked field telephone boxes—to systematically extract false confessions from over 118 Black males. We also examine the deep-seated institutional protection and complicity of high-level local judicial and political figures, including Cook County State's Attorney Richard M. Daley, who willfully hid evidence of torture to maintain a mass conviction pipeline. Finally, we anchor the brutal, state-sanctioned genital and testicular mutilation of Black males directly to Dr. Frances Cress Welsing's theory of "White Genetic Annihilation" and population control. Tune in for an unfiltered, urgent interrogation of the System of White Supremacy in the Windy City. #TheCOWS17Years #GenitalMutilation #BeyondTheUsualBeating #JonBurge #CounterRacism #WhiteSupremacyExposed #CressTheory #WhiteGeneticAnnihilation INVEST in The COWS – [http://paypal.me/TheCOWS](http://paypal.me/TheCOWS) Cash App: [https://cash.app/$TheCOWS](https://cash.app/$TheCOWS)

The Weaponization of Sports and Public Space: We dissect the immediate aftermath of the 2026 FIFA World Cup round-of-16 matches, examining how the Netherlands national football team faced rapid, coordinated racial abuse online following their elimination match by Morocco. We deploy counter-racist logic to decode how global sport serves as a recurring theater for white supremacy when non-white athletes outpace or eliminate European teams. 2. The Domestic Violation of Non-White Youth: We analyze a fresh federal lawsuit filed in Attala County, Mississippi, where seven families allege that a white principal and a school resource officer subjected Black McAdams High School students to humiliating strip-searches over missing vaping devices. We scrutinize the media's framing to expose how educational systems function as early-stage pipelines for structural violation and state control over Black bodies. 3. Biological, Environmental, and Medical Warfare: We investigate the devastating local attack out of Tacoma, Washington, where a pregnant mother was severely mauled by unleashed pit bulls on her due date, forcing an emergency labor induction. Furthermore, we decode BBC segments tracking the exploitation of non-white children following the Venezuelan earthquakes alongside the calculated distribution of fentanyl within the U.S. Somali population, revealing how environmental hazards and chemical dependencies are managed to compromise non-white survival.

The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the GRAND FINALE (Session 12) on lyin' Michelle Alexander's *The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness*. Alexander has a living White mother and a deceased Black father. Despite 15 years of institutional celebration for her work, Gus T. anticipated this title being one of the "5 Worst Books Ever." History shows that racists generally do not promote literature that provides an accurate understanding of the System of White Supremacy. This week, we drop the final Mario Elie "Kiss of Death" three-pointer on this text, permanently closing the casket on a 15-year academic hustle. We open the final chapter, *Obama: The Promise and the Peril*, and interrogate the absolute peak of her biographical dishonesty where she explicitly labels Affirmative Action a "racial bribe" that Black people must surrender to play academic "games of chicken" with their own survival. We back up our 12-week forensic media audit by deploying a devastating 14-minute custom audio track from our own 2010 CREE archive and 2016 public media slips. We let the Pusha T, Kendrick Lamar, Ray Charles, and Neely Fuller Jr. audio do the talking because Michelle Alexander has officially fouled out of the game! THE 15-POINT FORENSIC AUDIT SUMMARY: 1. The Manufactured "Underdog" Narrative: Claims she launched to half-empty rooms to conceal the massive institutional "push" that put her on C-SPAN, NPR, and Democracy Now within 5 months of publication. 2. Systemic Deception by Omission: Completely erases COINTELPRO, Jon Burge's torture ring, Attica, and the Black Panthers to bury earlier, more accurate structural work on the Prison-Industrial Complex. 3. Hidden Biographical Motivation: Willfully conceals her multi-ethnic background to hide her personal family defenses under the guise of objective scholarship. 4. Centering White Trauma: Explicitly argues that White women who chose to have interracial relationships under Jim Crow were primary, injured victims of a racial caste system. 5. The Fraudulent "Bribe" Thesis: Claims White people must be "bribed" to practice Racism, belied by a System of White Supremacy where whiteness automatically requires total domination. 6. Reckless Statistical Manipulation: Arbitrarily changes her state prison violent offender statistic from 33% to 52% between editions with zero data reconciliation or explanation. 7. Specious Claims as Fact: Drops massive, sweeping assertions straight onto the print page with absolutely zero footnotes or supporting empirical documentation. 8. The 1980s Progress Myth: Asserts that by the 1980s, the vast majority of White people opposed the practice of Racism—a completely ahistorical claim unsupported by any evidence. 9. Pathologizing Defense Mechanisms: Labels Affirmative Action a "racial bribe" for Black people, telling the victims of state terror to disarm while the system keeps its weapons. 10. Erasing the Real Beneficiaries: Refuses to inform readers of macro-data showing that White women have historically benefited most from Affirmative Action pipelines. 11. The "Accidental" Absolution: Labors mightily to frame the White power structure as ignorant, well-meaning, and "accidentally" racist to shield calculated state intent from exposure. 12. Coddling Whites, Targeting Black Institutions: Sweeps away structural White guilt while using print space to aggressively scold the CBC, the NAACP, and Bill Cosby. 13. Minstrel Linguistic Framing: Selectively quotes Black interviewees in broken, stereotypical English to frame them as inarticulate and implicitly deserving of incarceration. 14. Double-Dipping the Carceral Ledger: Hides that her husband Carter Stewart profited as a federal prosecutor caging Black bodies, while she profited off the fake literary outrage industry. 15. White-Identified Pronoun Usage: Deploys a slippery use of "we," "us," and "our" to identify with White spaces and lump the victims of Racism in as equally culpable for the system.

Michael Vorenberg traces how Andrew Johnson, initially seen as a radical ally, shifted toward a policy of white supremacy and hasty peace. He vetoed the Civil Rights Act of 1866, leading moderate Republicans to unite with radicals. This intense conflict centered on whether the war had legally ended. (14)1865

Film Festival Tickets: https://buytickets.at/thedopeyfoundation/2216905 FULL EPISODE ON PATREON: www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast Summary This week on Dopey Tuesday, Dave welcomes back his old friend Doug for another session. Dave admits he's stressed out trying to bank ten episodes before vacation while also preparing for the upcoming Dopey Film Festival. The pressure, combined with everyday disasters, has turned him into a basket case. Dave tells the story of joining a local gym and getting evaluated by the massively muscular trainer Joe. Everything goes smoothly until a set of lunges leaves Dave convinced he tore his hamstring during the assessment itself. Despite his injuries and insecurities, he signs up for personal training and dreams of eventually turning his basement into his own home gym. The guys revisit Dave's infamous barber story and discuss how comments made on the podcast always seem to find their way back to the people involved. Dave also vents about his mounting list of problems, including blowing out Linda's bicycle tire, Winnie destroying the screen door, and his general inability to keep up with life. Doug takes heat for missing meetings and for potentially skipping the Dopey Film Festival, while Dave complains that Doug is supposed to be helping recruit attendees.
