The C.O.W.S. w/ Dr. Gerald Horne: RACE WAR! #Tojo

The Context of White Supremacy (C.O.W.S.) Radio Program welcomes the return of Dr. Gerald Horne. Currently employed at the University of Houston holding the Moores Professorship of History and African American Studies, Dr. Horne is a distinguished scholar, prolific author and historian. We've read his biography of Paul Robeson and discussed his fascinating study of professional boxing and White Supremacy (The Bittersweet Science). Speaking of The C.O.W.S. book club, we recently completed Philip K. Dick's #TheMan in the High Castle. One of the Asian characters is mockingly called "Tojo." Gus was ignorant about Tojo until Retired Firefighter informed me about former Japanese General Hideki Tojo, who was executed as a war criminal following World War II. Gus flipped to Dr. Horne's Race War!: White Supremacy and the Japanese Attack on the British Empire and felt guilty for not having already read this extraordinary book. General Tojo is mentioned a few times. Dr. Horne details the counter-racist motivations that led Japan to battle Britain, the U.S... White people. Horne describes how central the theme of global White Supremacy is for the duration of the conflict. He gives fascinating data on the psychological wounds inflicted on Whites when Japan defeated the British - which resulted in some White men wearing dresses! And we'll discuss the failed efforts to produce a global non-white alliance. #RaceWar INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE: 564943#
