The C. O. W. S. w/ Dr. Louise du Toit: Sexual Abuse of Black Males in South Africa

from The C.O.W.S.

The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Dr. Louise du Toit live from South Africa. She is classified as White, a Racist Suspect. "Dr. du Toit is a Professor of Philosophy. She taught at the University of Johannesburg since 1997, before moving to Stellenbosch in 2010. Her main research interests include a wide range of themes within feminist philosophy, especially in the interface between African and European traditions. She is interested in sexual violence, Critical Theory, political philosophy, hermeneutics, philosophy and literature." We recently spoke with Dr. Nicky Falkof about White Supremacy and black males in South Africa. She recommended Dr. du Toit's fascinating chapter: "Contesting the meaning/s of sexual violence in the South African postcolony: where are the [black] male victims?" The project examines how black males are thought of as habitual rapists who threaten White Women and females in general. With Racist misandry dominating our view of black dudes, it's nigh impossible to acknowledge or sympathize with black male victims of sexual abuse. Dr. du Toit connects the history of gold mining in this region that provides context for the exploitation of black labor, White power and wealth, and the sexual abuse and control of black males in the mining shafts. We compare the similarities between her work and the scholarship of Dr. Tommy J. Curry, who also highlights the sexual vulnerability of black boys and males, investigate the case of Sandra Laing and racial classification confusion, and assess how White Women like Dr. du Toit practice White Supremacy in South Africa. We even shared a brief word on one of the most beloved novels of White Supremacy, To Kill A Mockingbird and what it reveals about the sexual vulnerability of black males. #TheCOWS14Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#
