This year marks the 20th anniversary of the publishing of The Isis Papers. While I read this book several years ago I have embarked on the journey once again. While I in no way agreed with everything the good Dr. had to say I found The Isis papers to be a good read and the first steps to clarifying color, race, and symbolism in a racist capitalistic society.
Psychiatrist Dr. Frances Cress Welsing’s functional definition of racism - the local and global power system structured and maintained by persons who classify themselves as white, whether consciously or subconsciously determined; this system consists of patterns of perception, logic, symbol formation, thought, speech, action and emotional response, as conducted simultaneously in all areas of human interaction (economics, education, entertainment, labor, law, politics, religion, sex and war). The ultimate purpose of the system is to prevent white genetic annihilation on earth - a planet in which the overwhelming majority of people are classified as non-white (black, brown, red and yellow) by white-skinned people. All the non-white people are genetically dominant (in terms of skin coloration) compared to the genetically recessive white-skinned people.
This book opened my mind to many issues; the essays make you think. Hit the link below and take a listen to the radio show, see what you think.
