The C.​O.​W.​S. Dr. Colin Anthony Beckles PanAfrican Sites of Resistance Part 5 🇺🇸 # BlackConservative #HowardDeniedDrWelsingTenure

The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the 5th study session on Dr. Colin Anthony Beckles' PanAfrican Sites of Resistance: Black Bookstores and The Struggle To Re-Present Black Identity. This 1995 dissertation is the first time in the illustrious 14 year history of The Katherine Massey Book Club that we will read a non-book. Dr. Beckles conducted an extraordinary amount of research and produced several reports documenting the import of black bookstores and the intense Racism targeting them around the world. Having just completed Char Adams' Black-Owned: The Revolutionary Life of the Black Bookstore, Gus concluded that text willfully excluded Dr. Frances Cress Welsing and Neely Fuller Jr. to stress anti-sexual behavior and to practice black misandry. Reading Dr. Beckles' - who is briefly mentioned in Adams' work, dissertation is the corrective to Black-Owned. Last week, we concluded our study of British Bookstores and White Supremacy with a staggering account of the violent targeting of these literary centers of resistance. British Race Soldiers also relied on banning literature that might reveal truth their English non-white population. Dr. Beckles then transitioned back to the US, to discuss how black bookstores in the states formed in direct opposition to the System of White Supremacy. Gus and listeners noted that he incorrectly credits Harlem's Lewis Michaux with establishing the first black bookstore in the US. Char Adams just told us that Michaux is following the footsteps of David Ruggles, who established a bookstore in 19th century New York City in spite of intense White Terrorism. #COINTELPRO #TheCOWS17Years #SafetyFirst INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#
