They explore how historical misrepresentations, omissions, and sanitization have obscured the true nature of America, its institutions, and White people's intentions toward non-White and Black people.

As maternal health specialists, Jaontra Henderson and Alexis Cobbins offer powerful critiques of how White supremacy impacts Black birthing people. They highlight the far-reaching consequences for Black women, children, and men, illustrating how these oppressive systems continue to handicap and debilitate the broader Black community.

Anti-Blackness and the Processes and Systems Aiding Black Dehumanization

Premiering:  Saturday, January 18th, 2025

The panelists delve into the ongoing cultural and institutional absolution of those who commit transgressions and crimes against Black people.


When the United States Supreme Court overturned the Force Acts of 1870 and 1871 (Cruikshank v. United States, 1876; United States v. Harris, 1883), it effectively legalized and created a permission structure for White Americans—and all Americans—to commit violence against the Black community.

White American Predation and the History of Legalized Sexual Violence Against Black Women, Girls, Boys, and Men

In this episode, Dante sits down with Dr. Rochelle Hooks, Alexis Cobbins, and Jessica Brown to explore chapter three of his book, Diagnosing Whiteness and Anti-Blackness: White Psychopathology, Collective Psychosis, and Trauma in America. The panelists examine how White American legislatures and courts historically determined that only white women could be victims of rape. They discuss how laws were specifically created across the country to exempt Black women from rape protections. Many judges and courts also interpreted existing laws in ways that suggested rape laws did not apply to Black women and girls, as white society deemed them immoral or promiscuous.


Black men were assaulted through sodomy and subjected to perpetual grooming by White men, conditioning them to adopt the harmful behavioral patterns of their oppressors—groomed into becoming rapists and pedophiles.


This episode takes an unexpected turn when Dante King nearly shuts down the entire discussion, reacting to what seems like female objectification and a trivialization of the topic. Tune in for this intense and thought-provoking conversation!
