An Interesting Parallel Case

It's worth it to check out Aron Ranen's inflammatory documentary "Black Hair" (handily collected for you at this old blog entry of mine) for an instance of Koreans being treated to the same sort of angry conspiracy theorizing as the Jews are in Mr. Rhie's book. The gist is that the Koreans have snuck into the Black hair care industry and vertically integrated retail, production and wholesaling. Ranen made the movie, and then subsequently attempted to use it as an anti-Korean piece of propaganda in an attempt to get Blacks to boycott Korean stores.
Incidentally, Ranen is the man responsible for the film Moon Hoax: Did We Go?, a classic in the field of fuzzy conspiratorial thinking. a true spiritual brother of Rhie Won-bok. Unfortunately, he is not the moon-hoax conspiracy theorist who got punched in the face by Buzz Aldrin, that was Bart Sibrel

A couple of pieces from other chapters

I thought it might be easier for everybody if I cut to the chase and put up as much offensive material from Monnara as I could find. So here are a few more pictures with shocking and offensive captions.

"Most crime in America is committed not by ethnic people (literally 'colored people') but by a social class called 'White Trash'" (page 135)
"Even now [Blacks] can't overcome racism both visible and invisible" (page 182)
Presumably broad stereotypes about speech patterns and bizarre portmanteaus could be considered racist in some form. The asterix next to 'SLACKS' does not, by the way, refer to any part of the text in the book.

(Quoting Samuel Huntington's 2004 book "Who Are We") "The greatest crisis that modern America faces comes from the continually increasing influx of immigrants from Latin America." (wave is labeled "South American immigrants") (page 186)

(Speaking about the problem of unwed teenage mothers) "In particular, young Black girls present an even bigger problem when they have children in their teens"
Mother: If there was no government assistance we'd starve to death." (page 215)

Teaching bad jokes as facts

Here's a gem from the chapter called "Credit is Life: How Americans Live"

p218)
Cars are more than a way to get around smoothly. They broadcast one's social status like the sound of a gong. People judge a person's station in life by looking at their car
(Graphic shows two men looking at a man in sunglasses and a suit)
First man: "That guy drives a Rolls Royce."
Second man: "Wow, he's really successful."
In particular the German BMW is the black American's 'dream car' and is a symbol of success.
(Graphic shows a black man in sunglasses driving a car. Above him the caption says "BMW = Black Men's Wish")
Rhie Won-bok, who taught you this junk?
