In this powerful debut episode of What’s the Context?, host Nantambu Foley pulls back the curtain on one of the oldest — and most dangerous — political tactics in history: SCAPEGOATING.
From ancient religious rituals to today’s political headlines, scapegoating has been used to shift blame, manipulate public opinion, and maintain power. Whether it’s immigrants, Black communities, Muslims, journalists, or political opponents — the targets change, but the strategy remains the same.
Drawing from personal experience in Congress and grassroots activism, Nantambu dissects how fear and division are weaponized to distract citizens from real issues like systemic inequality, corporate corruption, and government failure.
This episode challenges mainstream narratives, encourages critical thinking, and explores why Americans continue to fall for this psychological trap — and how we can break free.
🎙️ Topics Covered:
What is scapegoating and where did it begin?
Real examples from U.S. history: Jews, Muslims, Latinos, and more
How media and politicians craft false villains to distract from real problems
The psychology behind why scapegoating works

💥 Whether you're a student of history, a concerned citizen, or a truth-seeker tired of surface-level takes, this episode brings you the unfiltered political analysis you’ve been missing.
