TST 5/29/23 - Ghost of John C Calhoun w. Athen Walton

There can be no doubt now that the mainstream media and radical ideological zealots are recreating both the pre and post-Civil-War era political climate. From the declaration that Florida is a terrorist state for not teaching CRT to segregated classrooms, graduations, and now even dictionaries, we are watching Jim Crow, Black Codes, and the like take a newly resurrected form. John C. Calhoun was famous for his argument that race-based systems were ‘instead of an evil’, a ‘positive good’, benefiting all races. This is precisely what ‘woke’ has done in the name of inclusivity, equity, and equality today; separate everything protects dark-skinned folks from light-skinned folks, rather than the other way around. The ghost of John Calhoun walks freely in the media and major universities, preaching hatred and racism in the name of love and diversity.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.
