The C.O.W.S. Isabel Wilkerson's Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents Part 9

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the 9th study session on Isabel Wilkerson's 2020 offering, Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents. Wilkerson can stuff a storage area and a luggage set with the numerous awards she's garnered - often for writing about the mistreatment of black people. The Warmth of Other Suns is beloved by President Barack Obama and Gus T. Renegade alike. However, Caste is a pitiful offering and nearly cemented as the 2nd worst book Gus has read. The word "caste" is in the text more than 1,000 times according to word count - this does not include the title of the text. It frequently seems like one of the primary objectives of this text is to get black people to use the word "caste" as oppose to Racism/White Supremacy. Wilkerson's continues proselytizing that Whites too are victims of Racism. While discussing the deliberate abuse of baseball star Satchel Page, Wilkerson says Racist baseball owners and fans were also "losers," missing out on the talents and skill of Page. When not reminding readers of Whites's suffering from "caste," Wilkerson slaps sloppy simile on top of makeshift metaphor. The term "mealy-mouthed" captures the essence and danger of this text - which was likely published in connection to the U.S. presidential election. #CallThingsByTheirProperName INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE: 564943#
