Listener, this is your host Trinity. I'm so happy to introduce you to this week's episode: The Ralph Waldo Emerson Spectacular! We're gonna have a grand old time learning about this, another historic devil and his devil pen-pals! Like Thomas Carlyle. But! And I am getting out in front of this. I am sorry for the following:

1.) Thomas Carlyle's actual slurs.

2.) The kink-shaming.

3.) The Amazing Atheist fetish content.

4.) It's chapters 10, 11, & 12 of The History of White People!

Truly, the modern world is no different than the old world, friendos! We are told we're progressing toward justice in this miserable country, but the truth is that in every era the ruling class tried to convince us (and by "us" I mean literally whoever you are) that by stepping on the necks of Black and Indigenous people we will somehow wind our way to victory and progress. And yet, somehow, that rings so hollow. Are you sure you want to ally with the White American Imperial Project? It's currently the same as it ever was, but we don't have to put up with that! It's chapter 9 of The History of White People!

Did you know that the specter of race war constantly haunts the minds of American Whites like a nightmare? That's at least what every European visitor had to say about this miserable country by the 1850's! The categories of slave and free, White and Black, good European and bad European, and so many more have, by the decades preceding the American Civil War, reached the end of their useful life. And yet, despite these ideas having reached peak senility, America persisted in its violence as European writers fawningly praised the freedom inherent in American blood and dismissed the other peoples of the continent as degenerate savages who don't have ideas in their damn head. Of course, Black writers of the day had much better ideas and the specter of you and me reading and understanding them haunts the minds of the American Whites like a nightmare. It's chapter 8 of The History of White People!
