The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Dr. Micki Burdick. Research Project Manager at the University of Pennsylvania’s Perelman School of Medicine, Dr. Burdick examines reproductive justice, rhetoric and Racism/White Supremacy. She and WNBA number one draft pick Caitlin Clark are White Women and University of Iowa alumni. Gus found her 2024 report, “Let’s Make the Womb Safe Again”: Ethnographic Explorations of White Evangelical Women’s Language of Reproductive Injustice. This recent publication examines how White Women skillfully use words to shape reproductive policy. However, Gus was able to research further and located Dr. Burdick’s 2023 dissertation, Spectacular Surveillance: Gender, White Christian Nationalism, and Evangelical Women in the Pro-Life Movement. This is a far more comprehensive treatment of the history and evolution of White Women’s Work to shape thinking about and legal restrictions regarding sexual behavior and production of offspring. Dr. Burdick submits that White Women have been the foundation of the White evangelical-backed opposition to abortion. Their "pro-life" rhetoric consciously and subconsciously reifies that White Lives. Matter. In fact, they support the System of White Supremacy while employing Racial Showcasing to deceptively portray themselves as being in support of all human life and Justice. Non-white listeners should note the number of times that Dr. Burdick isolates Racism to the benefits from being classified as White. She's in a #TragicArrangement and we discussed how White Supremacy/Racism impacts this "relationship" as well. #WordMasters #TheCOWS15Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#
