The C.O.W.S. Neutralizing Workplace Racism 03/26/21

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly forum on Neutralizing Workplace Racism. Federal unemployment numbers suggest the lowest unemployment applications since the Covid-19 pandemic began. However, this does not signal the end of the economic catastrophe and workplace disruption associated with the pandemic. Last week we discussed a black male delivery driver who was terrorized by an off-duty White enforcement official, Pierce County Sheriff Ed Troyer, in Washington state. Sheriff Troyer is being investigated, but these type of incidents are a daily occurrence because of White Supremacy. This week in New York, a White Woman, Queens, New York’s Stephanie Denaro, refused to wear mask and proceeded to verbally berate a black bakery worker. Denaro’s has reportedly been banned from the establishment.
