WTW21: Stennis Makes His Case

Part 2 of We Shouldn't Name Anything for John Stennis.   What really happened in the trial of Ed Brown, Yank Ellington, and Henry Shields? Well, since this is WTW we can't just tell you that small bit of information and have a 3 minute episode. Instead, we've got some historical context, a detailed look at the state's case (argued by Stennis), and then some... more historical stuff. Then finally, some speculation on what might have really happened to Raymond Stewart!   Content warning: this episodes contains mention of horrendous racial violence.

Every single time the right, or even center-left, goes ballistic over a "woke" controversy, the slightest bit of investigation shows the scandal is almost entirely bogus. This is not a new phenomenon; it dates back decades. It's an intentional tool used to protect the powerful and preserve the status quo, while further scapegoating and otherizing those who push for political progress. This podcast digs into not just today's fake scandals, but those of yesterday and yesteryear. The terminology has changed some, but the pattern has not. Listen in as host Thomas Smith shines a light on the panic, the fragility, the overreaction, and the lying that ignites 'Where There's Woke.'
