The C.O.W.S. Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man Part 4

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the 4th study session on Ralph Ellison's 1952 classic, Invisible Man. One of Gus's top five all-time books, Ellison's novel was selected for the 1953 National Book Award and has been circulated and celebrated globally for almost 75 years. Invisible Man recounts an unnamed black male's odyssey through the confusion of White Supremacy (Racism). Last week's segment detailed the narrator's terror after having so much trouble chauffeuring Mr. Norton, a White Man. Before learning his fate from Dr. Bledsoe, the black president of the college, the narrator is ordered to attend a campus sermon by the Rev. Homer A. Barbee. Rev. Barbee explains the origins of the school and how the black Founder of the college invested his spirit in constructing an academy for the betterment of black people. After blind Rev. Barbee's dramatic rendition of school lore, the main character feels a suffocating sense of guilt for in anyway jeopardizing the school. He's left contemplating the apocalyptic thought of being expelled from campus and forced to return home, a failure. #AntiBlackness INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE 564943#
