The C.O.W.S. Woody Allen's Apropos of Nothing Part 4 #AntiAsianViolence


Listen Later

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the fourth study session on Woody Allen's Apropos of Nothing. One of the most critically acclaimed directors of all time, Woody Allen is a New York City and entertainment icon. In addition to his flicks, he's performed comedy, played packed concert halls, and written books - Apropos of Nothing being his most recent. Published in 2020, the text unpacks his life, celebrated Hollywood career, and "romance" with Soon-Yi Previn. In addition to being adopted from Vietnam, non-white, and decades younger than Allen, Previn was Allen's stepchild. Despite a damning Child Protective Services investigation and years of allegations of child rape and sexual abuse of children, Allen remains beloved by hoards of Whites. We'll examine this work for what it reveals about White culture. Last week's session saw Allen name drop dozens of White Hollywood icons. From Jack Lemon to Mel Brooks and Jackie Gleason, Allen makes sure readers know he's been hobnobbing with royalty for decades. Allen continues his pattern of projecting sexual deviance onto White Women he's pursuing. While out to dinner with Jean, he provides a vivid description of her begging to ditching the supper table to go have sex in a dark alley just beyond the viewing public. Allen describes himself as squeamish and hesitant about this explicit display, but admits he ultimately did "succumb." He also describes his former White wife as being "supersonically promiscuous," as though Allen is pious sexual prude. #AntiAsianViolence INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE: 564943#
