Ep. 4: Gerald Horne on Fascism, Racial Passing, Christian Nationalism, January 6, & Ye (Kanye West)

In this interview Gerald Horne and I discuss his book "The Color of Fascism: Lawrence Dennis, Racial Passing, and the Rise of Right Wing Extremism in the United States" (New York UP, 2006). Dr. Horne focuses on the elusive and often overlooked connection between racial passing and fascism and the historical continuum between figures like Lawrence Dennis and Enrique Tarrio, Ali Alexander and others and their role in the coup of January 6, 2021. We also discuss Kanye and Kyrie Irving a bit, as well as the possibility of turning Dr. Horne's book into a screenplay.
This video also includes bonus content, so make sure to watch until the end!
This interview took place December 10, 2022.

    With scholars like Dr. Horne, whom we need more of, one can only wonder how much better the American citizenry, (therefore America) would be if the veil was lifted from our eyes due to this type of information. Bravo Dr. Horne!

    Could we say that Dennis used his 'white voice' to racially pass as white? This is in reference the film 'sorry to bother you.'

    The rise of European and American fascism is alarming. Dr. Frances Cress Welsing stated that fascism is the last stage of capitalism. And we know that scapegoatism is a part of fascism, so people of color as well as the Jewish community must remain alert.

    The zionist faction of the yewish community is just as fascist as any other segment of American society. Don't attach their story to ours because we are usually the targets of their fascism.

    Who should empower them? How? International relations works like basic power dynamics and that's just not how it works. It's always going to be a gentleman's agreement. No one can enforce anything, other than the hegemonic power which runs the show anyway, the only way to restrain the hegemon is for them to agree to restrain themselves. It's on US citizens, and lets be real the world aint go no faith in US citizens to bring their rogue government into check.

    What's worth comparing is the idea of racial passing overlapping with white supremacy and right wing extremism. Same with Stewart Rhodes.

    This is hilarious. Gerald Horne's ever expanding fascism narratives now border on slapstick. I say this as a Jewish woman who left the Left due to its anti-Judaism. My favorite part of Horne's monologue is the Palestinian intellectual telling Horne that America is NOT a settler colonial enterprise.

    The left isn't anti Judaism any more than it is anti theist in general. It's anti Zionist which if we get real, Zionism is the real anti Judaism. You should have some shame for letting settler colonial Zionists usurp your Judaism. As a Christian, I don't let the so called Christian fundamentalists in the US usurp Christianity, I consider them heretical lunatics.
