The Whiteface of Neo-Fascism 2: Cornell West

“This is not draining the swamp. It’s stocking it with alligators.”

‘Whiteface’ is the theatrical use of white face paint to portray a racialized-white character. I use it in this post as the Trump campaign’s exploitation of the racialized-white rage of poor and working class whites to win an administration that disregards and destroys their class interests.
