On Anger: Where Does A Straight White Man Belong?

I have come to believe that many of the messages of rugged independence aimed at white Americans are a tactic to fracture our communities. Isolation and alienation create anger, which helps to foster resentment that can be weaponized by malicious people. That, in turn, all fed into my own severe depression, Bipolar instability, and alienation due to my autism.

50 Truths They Tried to Erase by Freddie E. Taylor (Bonus Book Review)

In this episode, I contemplate and review the book 50 Truths They Tried to Erase - Black Power, Culture, & Resistance Uncovered by Freddie E. Taylor. I originally bought this book due to my interest in propaganda and influence. What I found within its pages is an excellent introduction to the many ways in which our perceptions and attitudes are cultivated towards black Americans. This book is not a deep dive, but can serve as an excellent starting point to begin further exploration as Mr. Taylor covers a variety of topics and perceptions. I would recommend this book to any white person who is looking to better understand how racism and prejudice is shaped by propagandists. If you are someone who does not want to be used as a weapon against people of color, 50 Truths They Tried to Erase is an excellent place to start.

On Anger: The Straight White Male, Culture, and White Pride
