<strong>The</strong> <strong>Isis</strong> <strong>Papers</strong><br />

Is <strong>the</strong>re also a connection between <strong>the</strong> defeat of highly armed<br />

Americans (whites) in <strong>the</strong> Viemam War, wherein white males were beaten<br />

by a tiny nation of non-white people, and <strong>the</strong> fantastic increase in <strong>the</strong><br />

popularity of tennis throughout <strong>the</strong> U.S.? <strong>The</strong> entire U.S. nation, since<br />

<strong>the</strong> close of <strong>the</strong> Viemam War, has begun <strong>to</strong> beat <strong>the</strong> small white tennis<br />

balls, <strong>the</strong> symbolic white testicles, following a humiliating defeat (loss of<br />

power) for <strong>the</strong> American (white) nation. Or did tennis just become<br />

popular after Watergate?<br />

Fur<strong>the</strong>rmore, is it just a coincidence that <strong>the</strong>re was a greatly increased<br />

interest of white females in tennis at <strong>the</strong> same time that <strong>the</strong>y began <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

women's liberation movement, a movement that attacks white males and<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir sense of superiority, a movement that has referred <strong>to</strong> white males as<br />

"male chauvinist pigs"? Through <strong>the</strong> game of tennis, white females<br />

symbolically can attack <strong>the</strong> white testicles - <strong>the</strong> part of <strong>the</strong> ana<strong>to</strong>my that<br />

is supposed <strong>to</strong> make <strong>the</strong> white male superior <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> white female. Is this<br />

also why tennis is becoming increasingly popular among Blacks in<br />

America?<br />

Also, is <strong>the</strong>re a relationship among <strong>the</strong> number of white males seeking<br />

sex change operations (<strong>to</strong> remove <strong>the</strong>ir hated male genitalia), <strong>the</strong> number<br />

of white male physicians willing <strong>to</strong> perform this surgery, and <strong>the</strong> white<br />

male's loss of <strong>the</strong> Vietnam War <strong>to</strong> non-white men, as well as <strong>the</strong> rise in<br />

power of non-white men in general on <strong>the</strong> planet?<br />

I wish an ever-increasing success <strong>to</strong> all Black males who participate<br />

in ball games, and I look forward <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> day when <strong>the</strong> majority of<br />

quarterbacks are Black or at least in proportion <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> number of Black<br />

football players. Still, <strong>the</strong> most important message in this essay is that in<br />

<strong>the</strong> last 100 years, <strong>the</strong> white collective simply has moved from <strong>the</strong> overt<br />

sport and entertainment of lynching and castrating Black men (removing<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir testicles). <strong>the</strong>reby controlling <strong>the</strong>ir "balls," <strong>to</strong> a more highly refined<br />

series of symbolic representations of <strong>the</strong> same act: ball games. And,<br />

whe<strong>the</strong>r through lynching and castration or modem ball games, <strong>the</strong> object<br />

and neurotic preoccupation is <strong>the</strong> same: <strong>the</strong> white male seeks <strong>to</strong> prevent<br />

non-white males from ever controlling white "balls," and <strong>the</strong>refore <strong>the</strong>y<br />

must control <strong>the</strong> ana<strong>to</strong>mical balls and <strong>the</strong> contents of <strong>the</strong> colored ana<strong>to</strong>mi-<br />
