The C. O. W. S. w/ Nairobi Thompson: Almost British (Revisited) # Part 2 #NgoziFulani


Listen Later

The C.O.W.S. (Context of White Supremacy) Radio Program welcomes the return of Nairobi Thompson. A writer, poet and learning and development specialist, Ms. Thompson is a versatile communicator and facilitator with a rare ability to challenge and entertain professional and artistic audiences. She was gracious enough to visit with us last month, to discuss the re-release of her memoir, Almost British: Re-Visited, which gives detailed account of years of deliberate White Supremacist abuse from mostly White Women in British Prison service. Last time, we detailed Ms. Thompson's resistance to blame her workplace troubles on Racism as well as the lecherous comments White Male colleagues made about her attire. This time we'll dig into the myriad ways White Women sabotaged her efforts, denied her access to training, and undermined her confidence and #BlackSelfRespect. We discuss the corrosive impact this had on her health and attempted marriage. We'll hear how some non-white colleagues who did not smoke joined Whites for "fag breaks" - British slang meaning sessions to smoke cigarettes. This employs the meaning of the term "fag" connoting a bundle of sticks. Gus submits this is another illustration of the homoerotic foundations of White culture. #WorkplaceRacism #TheCOWS13 INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#
