*19:44 - Hate Project show beings.  I Talk about George Zimmerman being acquitted for the murder of Trayvon Martin, also discussion of Marissa Alexander case, Bernard Goetz, and general interacting with trolls in chat. *51:54 - A troll in the chat is lobbing racially charged yet homoerotic statements at me. I ask this guy why he buys into the stereotypes of black people being violent, asking if a black person has ever committed violence towards him. 

*57:20 – someone in chat room threatens “race war” and I pose the same question from the earlier episodes – if there was a race war and everyone was armed equally – who would win?

*1:06:00 - Discussion of Zimmerman being half-latino, and I talk about Latinos and Asians who I grew up around in TX, who tried to assimilate especially if they could pass for white.  If accepted, they do the bidding of white supremacy.

*1:11:36 – I refute a troll who says “America is only for whites”, I’m accused of being a jew. More homophobic yet homoerotic trash talk

*1:22:22 – I explain why I don’t believe white guilt from liberal whites is good for anyone, discussion of Jordan Davis case, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson

*1:37:14 - Discussion of black men who saved white girls - Tamar Boggs and Charles Ramsey. Discussion of Trayvon/Zimmerman jury had 6 white women and white women taught to fear black men while benefitting from white privilege

*1:51:25 – Regular klansman caller dragon1488 calls in. He reiterates how wrong George Zimmerman was but still takes a racial dig at Trayvon Martin. -I mention that I traveled through Tennesee where Dragon lives, he says we could’ve had dinner together and sounds sincere, I mention that he probably doesn’t want to meet me. I describe eating a meal in “The Old Mill” a former Union sympathetic site in Tennessee. 

*2:05:23 -  “Guest 20” calls in. He defends George Zimmerman, makes same arguments that trolls made. Dr
