Toward a Cultural Analysis of White People<\/strong>
\nGUEST: John Hartigan Jr., Professor of Anthropology at the University of Texas at Austin, author of “Odd Tribes: Toward a Cultural Analysis of White People”<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Odd<\/a>The academic discourse on whiteness in the United States has long been focused on racial privilege. But John Hartigan Jr, Professor of Anthropology at the University of Texas asserts that it is crucial to add into the mix, class and gender perspectives. He has written a new book called “Odd Tribes: Toward a Cultural Analysis of White People.” According to one reviewer, Odd Tribes is “Beautifully written, theoretically sophisticated, and passionately iconoclastic, [it] should be required reading for anyone interested in the study of race and social inequalities. Its difficult lessons\u00e2\u20ac\u201dfor both liberal academics and antiracist practitioners\u00e2\u20ac\u201dneed to be absorbed and understood.” In his book, Hartigan examines the significance of the term “white trash” as applied to working class whites, and asserts that middle class whites use the term to depict “cultural pollution.” I spoke with Hartigan recently. <\/p>\n

American Voices<\/strong>
\nGUESTS: Fernando Suarez del Solar, Military Familias Speak Out, Mark Manning, independent film maker, “Caught i the Crossfire” and “American Voices”<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Fernando2,242 U.S. troops have been killed in Iraq as of this Monday, since the start of the 2003 US invasion, according to the Department of Defense. That’s a rise of 33 in only seven days, and an average of 4.7 soldiers killed per day. If the huge civilian toll in Iraq doesn’t jolt Americans to demand an end to the Iraq occupation, perhaps the increasing death toll of US soldiers will. We end the show today with Fernando Suarez del Solar, with Military Families Speak Out, whose son Jesus, was killed in March 2003. Also on the line is independent filmmaker Mark Manning\u00e2\u20ac\u0153 whose latest documentary is called “American Voices\u00e2\u20ac\u009d which documents the feelings of Americans that Mark has spoken with all over the country on the issue of war, foreign policy and the media. <\/p>\n

Sonali’s Subversive Thought for the Day: <\/strong><\/p>\n

“The process of revolution is not that of storming the seats of power, but of creating the environment where the popular notions of society, power and legitimacy, shift out from underneath those seats of power. [Independent media] is a vehicle through which the ideological basis of present power structures can be subverted. ” — Evan Henshaw Plath, a member of the Indymedia Tech Collective<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
