The C.O.W.S. w/ Philip Dray: The History of White Terrorism and Mob Violence


Listen Later

The Context of White Supremacy (C.O.W.S.) welcomes Professor Philip Dray. A faculty member of The New School In New York, Dray is an award-winning author and a Fellow of the New York Institute for the Humanities at NYU. The January 6th White Treasonous assault on the Capitol building immediately reminded Gus T. Renegade of Dray's 2003 book, At The Hands of Persons Unknown: The Lynching of Black America. A Pulitzer Prize finalist, the well-documented book tracks the history of White Supremacist violence against black people. Dray cites many topics and people C.O.W.S. listeners should be familiar with: former South Carolina governor "Pitchfork" Ben Tillman, the film Birth of a Nation, esteemed journalist Ida B. Wells-Barnett, Frederick Douglass, the Wilmington, North Carolina 1898 coup, and heavyweight boxing champion Jack Johnson to name a few. We'll discuss the near identical symmetry between this month's White Terrorist assault and the immense catalog of White Supremacist mobs. These parallels include but are not limited to: involvement of the police and or military personnel within the mob, White disgust with uppity negro athletes, White Women playing key roles in generating or executing violence, willingness to attack White enforcement officials and/or White elected officials. It seems Dray's 2018 publication, The Fair Chase: The Epic Story of Hunting In America, may also be relevant to this conversation. #WhiteTerrorism INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE: 564943#
