Michelle Alexander

The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the 8th session on Michelle Alexander's The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration In the Age of Colorblindness. Alexander has a living White mother and a deceased black father. Despite 15 years of institutional celebration for her work, Gus T. anticipated this title being one of the "5 Worst Books Ever." History shows that racists generally do not promote literature that provides an accurate understanding of the System of White Supremacy. Deception by Omission: A serious exploration of prisons and Racism must account for the systemic forces that built them. This book's failure to center COINTELPRO, the torture legacy of Chicago’s Jon Burge, or the raw profitability of caging Black men suggests Alexander is guilty of a whole lot of lying. Last week's review included: 1. The "Basically" Deception & The Audio Patch: Alexander claims the 10th Anniversary edition is "basically" the same book. Yet, each week listeners stumble into brand-new pages of text offering substantially alternate information from what Alexander previously scrawled. 2. Undermining Her Own Thesis: While most edits involve new content, last week revealed a rare deletion from the 10th-anniversary edition. The original version notes “racial bias in a system that purports to be colorblind.” The term purport suggests White people are not vision-restricted, but rather, willfully focused on caging infinite numbers of Black men. Removing this sentence suggests Alexander is aware of the lies she's peddling. 3. Sleeping With The Prosecutor: Alexander details the life-altering power and discretion prosecuting attorneys wield over non-white defendants. Because of this, listeners questioned why the author failed to disclose her husband Carter Stewart's extensive prosecutorial conduct, and how his career affirms the very system she critiques. #COINTELPRO #TheRedboneDeception #BillCosby #TheCOWS17Years INVEST in The COWS – [http://paypal.me/TheCOWS](http://paypal.me/TheCOWS) Cash App: [https://cash.app/$TheCOWS](https://cash.app/$TheCOWS) CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the 7th session on Michelle Alexander's The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration In the Age of Colorblindness. Alexander is a non-white female with one White parent and one non-white parent. Despite 15 years of institutional celebration, Gus T. anticipated this being one of the 5 Worst Books Ever. Racists generally do not promote literature that provides an accurate understanding of the System of White Supremacy. Deception by Omission: A serious exploration of prisons and Racism must account for the systemic forces that built them. This book's failure to center COINTELPRO, the torture legacy of Chicago’s Jon Burge, or the raw profitability of caging Black men suggests Alexander is guilty of a whole lot of lying. Last week's review included: 1. The "Basically" Deception & The Audio Patch: Alexander claims the 10th Anniversary edition is "basically" the same book, yet we discovered she began remixing her sloppy book almost immediately. Last week, Gus noted that in 2010 she wrote that 1/3 of state inmates are violent offenders. But in the 2012 audiobook, she boosted the number to 50%. Which is it? 2. The COINTELPRO Foundation: Last week, Alexander again discussed the necessary use of police informants to snitch on drug users and violent offenders. She explained that the information they relay may or may not be true and they can easily be manipulated to lie on behalf of law enforcement. These are all hallmarks of the FBI campaign Alexander willfully omits from her original printing. 3. Flagrant Lies: Alexander again says that at some random point in time following the 1970s, most people classified as White in this part of the world disavowed the practice of Racism/White Supremacy. Again, Alexander knows this is a lie because her White relatives booted her White mom out of the family for marrying a black dude. Alexander lived in a Racially Restricted Region of Oregon in the 1980s. She's hyper-aware that Whites remain dedicated to the System of White Supremacy - as was her deceased black father. #COINTELPRO #TheRedboneDeception #TheCOWS17Years INVEST in The COWS – [http://paypal.me/TheCOWS](http://paypal.me/TheCOWS) Cash App: [https://cash.app/$TheCOWS](https://cash.app/$TheCOWS) CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the 6th session on Michelle Alexander's The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration In the Age of Colorblindness. Alexander is a non-white female with one White parent and one non-white parent. Despite 15 years of institutional celebration, Gus T. anticipated this being one of the 4 Worst Books Ever. Racists generally do not promote literature that provides an accurate understanding of the System of White Supremacy. Deception by Omission: A serious exploration of prisons and Racism must account for the systemic forces that built them. This book's failure to center COINTELPRO, the torture legacy of Chicago’s Jon Burge, or the raw profitability of caging Black men suggests Alexander is guilty of a whole lot of lying. Last week's review included: 1. The "Basically" Deception & The Audio Patch: Alexander claims the 10th Anniversary edition is "basically" the same book, yet we discovered she began "slipping in" massive, structural data, like the $36B Clinton-era housing-to-prison strike, as early as the 2012 audio book. This is Administrative Concealing of her own original errors. She’s been running a "live patch" on her scholarship for 14 years to look more "radical" than she actually is. 2. The COINTELPRO Foundation: Alexander details the prosecutorial work of the drug war involves deceiving black male defendants, the use of paid, unidentified, often coerced informants, wiretapping, and draconian sentences to compel suspects to accept plea bargains and/or plead guilty to lesser sentences. She willfully ignores that most of these tactics were hallmarks of the COINTELPRO campaign against innocent black people who were struggling to counter-racism, not peddle drugs. 3. Black People Have Never Been Free: Michelle with 1 White parent told us: “Once upon a time, it was generally understood that the police could not stop and search someone without a warrant unless there was probable cause to believe that the individual was engaged in criminal activity.” All of the book club members united to point out the insanity of such a claim. White people - including children - with or without a badge have had the authority - if not he mandate - to stop any black person, at any time, for any reason. That's what White means - The Law. Reminded Gus of Trayvon Martin and Ahmad Arbery. #COINTELPRO #TheRedboneDeception #TheCOWS17Years INVEST in The COWS – [http://paypal.me/TheCOWS](http://paypal.me/TheCOWS) Cash App: [https://cash.app/$TheCOWS](https://cash.app/$TheCOWS) CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the f study fourth session on Michelle Alexander's The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration In the Age of Colorblindness. Alexander is a non-white female with one White parent and one non-white parent. Despite 15 years of institutional celebration, Gus T. anticipated this being one of the 5 Worst Books Ever. Racists generally do not promote literature that provides an accurate understanding of the System of White Supremacy. Deception by Omission: A serious exploration of prisons and Racism must account for the systemic forces that built them. This book's failure to center COINTELPRO, the torture legacy of Chicago’s Jon Burge, or the raw profitability of caging Black men suggests a deliberate obfuscation of the facts. Last week's review included: 1. The New Deal Falsification: Alexander claims Black people "benefited disproportionately" from FDR’s New Deal. This is factually incorrect. Historical records from the NAACP and others confirm the program largely excluded Black people from minimum wage increases and Social Security by exempting domestic and agricultural sectors—where 65% of Black workers were employed. 2. Alexander says the "general public typically traces the death of Jim Crow to Brown v. Board of Education." This is not the "death" of the System of White Supremacy and is a part of Alexander's greater pattern of willfully ignoring facts. Alexander does not itemize what evidence she used to asses the views of the 1954 "general public" nor does the admit the years of widespread violent, White resistance to implementing this court decision. 3. Redlining & Economic Terrorism: While Alexander notes the New Deal was "rife with discrimination," she avoids the term White Supremacy. She omits that these federal policies were the genesis of redlining, effectively mandating Black exclusion from the human right to quality housing. 4. Omission of COINTELPRO: Alexander mentions the White Citizens’ Councils but ignores the FBI’s COINTELPRO operation. This federal program functioned simultaneously to "neutralize" Black leaders and organizations, contributing directly to the unjust incarceration of black people. #COINTELPRO #TheCOWS17Years INVEST in The COWS – [http://paypal.me/TheCOWS](http://paypal.me/TheCOWS) Cash App: [https://cash.app/$TheCOWS](https://cash.app/$TheCOWS) CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#
