My good people, Happy Nu Year!
After a week off last weekend, we returned to our deep reading through Blueprint For Black Power last weekend. I’m sharing this one with all subscribers this week. To access the full archive of all previous sessions, please sign up below.
In Chapter 8, we read about some of the intricacies of the political system in the United Snakes. We saw how these tools are expertly used by the dominant white male elite to entrench and enhance its hegemonic power. As usual, timestamps are below, and there’s also a transcript which you read while listening. You can click anywhere in the transcript to jump to that part of the video. See you guys this weekend hopefully.
Peace
Ely
