Jack Russell Weinstein

<a href="https://und.edu/directory/jack.weinstein#publications-and-presentations">Dr. Jack Russell Weinstein</a> is the Chester Fritz Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at the University of North Dakota. Weinstein vehemently opposes those whom he calls “open carry activists.” He believes their rights are not protected under the Constitution and he encourages people to avoid those who open carry. Dr. Weinstein even suggested that those who don’t want to be around people who open carry in restaurants should just leave without paying the bill. He says, “There really is no legitimate way of determining intent….Even if the people with guns are carrying a sign claiming to be activists (which they do not do), they could be lying, just setting us all up for slaughter.”

<a href="https://campus.und.edu/directory/whitney.mayo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Whitney Mayo</a> is an Assistant Professor of Music Education at the University of North Dakota. Her research interests include “Rural Music Education” and “Anti-Bias, Equity, Access, and Inclusion.”

In December 2023, Mayo was featured in <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/music-education-remains-inherently-racist-scholars-say/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The College Fix article</a> “Music education ‘remains inherently racist’, scholars say.” Mayo and her colleague <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/erikaknapp" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Erika Knapp</a> were highlighted after <a href="http://act.maydaygroup.org/articles/KnappMayo22_3.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">co-authoring a paper</a> that discusses anti-racism in music education.

The College Fix said, “[We] contacted Knapp and Mayo to inquire about the intersection between critical race theory and music education, solutions to fix the admissions process, and if there were any plans to get their ideas implemented. They declined…and say they are ‘choosing to let our paper speak for itself…’”

In the <a href="http://act.maydaygroup.org/articles/KnappMayo22_3.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">paper</a>—entitled “Disrupting Racism in Music Education: Conceptualizing Admissions Processes Through the State and the War Machine”—Mayo and Knapp state:
“The music education field is and has remained predominantly white for the last 30 years. Silence about the dominance of whiteness remains pervasive in music education programs, despite a growing body of scholarship surrounding this topic. 
“In this article, we argue that the entire admissions process for United States music education programs, regardless of reform attempts and a sizeable body of academic scholarship, remains inherently racist.”
The College Fix <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/music-education-remains-inherently-racist-scholars-say/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pointed</a> out how Mayo and Knapp believe music education faculty “need to act as a war machine by ‘engaging in anti-racism’ and ‘understanding that disruption needs to occur on both the individual and systemic level.’”

<a href="https://www.coursicle.com/binghamton/professors/Meisha+Lohmann/">Meisha Lohmann</a> is a lecturer in the English Department at Binghamton University.
In a piece for <a href="https://theconversation.com/wonka-movie-holds-remnants-of-novels-racist-past-217069">The Conversation</a>, Lohmann writes about the 2023 film “Wonka.” She addresses what she calls a racial agenda regarding the film’s character “Noodle” along with that of the original Willy Wonka story written by Roald Dahl. She writes:
“Unfortunately, the latest <a href="https://www.wonkamovie.com/">Wonka</a> movie also engages in the type of implicit racism that remains in the revised 1974 version of the novel. The most prominent Black character, a girl named Noodle, played by the talented <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm7412362/">Calah Lane</a>, takes a back seat to Wonka in the major events of the film.”
Noodle, according to Lohmann, is a girl cast “in the position of an unfortunate Black girl who can only hope for a ride on Wonka’s velvet coattails.” Wonka’s role is seen as that of a “white savior.”
Lohmann also discusses the original Willy Wonka story in Dahl’s book “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” (part of which was re-written a few years after its publication in 1964). Regarding the original story, Lohmann writes of Wonka’s actions towards the Oompa-Loompas:
“Wonka describes how he ‘smuggled’ the Oompa-Loompas into the country in ‘large packing cases with holes in them,’ the image clearly recalls slave ships navigating the <a href="https://www.nps.gov/articles/the-middle-passage.htm#:%7E:text=The%20Middle%20Passage%20itself%20lasted,15%25%20grew%20sick%20and%20died.">Middle Passage</a>.” 
Donald Sturrock’s “<a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=udN6caZEJesC&amp;printsec=frontcover&amp;source=gbs_ge_summary_r&amp;cad=0#v=onepage&amp;q=naacp&amp;f=false" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Storyteller: TheAuthorized Biography of Roald Dahl</a>” addresses the controversy behind Dahl’s original Oompah-Loompa character. Upon facing criticism of the African Oompa-Loompas from the NAACP, Dahl changed their appearance and nature. Dahl was dismayed with the disapproval of these characters in their original form. He felt the NAACP believed his book to be “a subtle anti-negro manual,” which he said was far from his intentions.
Returning to the more recent Willy Wonka film, Lohmann cited some dialogue, with her descriptions, between Wonka and Noodle: 
“I know things haven’t been easy for you.” ‘Wonka says in the movie.’ “They’re going to get better.”
“You promise?” ‘Noodle replies, hopefully, and he does promise, highlighting his role as her white savior. Another character in voice-over agrees:’ “You could change her life, Mr. Wonka. Change all their lives.”
Lohmann finished the piece by lamenting “Wonka’s” failure to move “away from the novel’s racist origins,” and impart “the power of imagination on a new generation.”  She cautions moviegoers from watching the film and to wait for a Wonka movie devoid of what she perceives as racism. 
“Unfortunately, moviegoers may find themselves having to hold their breath and make a wish, as Gene Wilder <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVi3-PrQ0pY" target="_blank" rel="noopener">stated in a song</a> from the 1971 movie, for a version that holds no remnants of its racist past.”

<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20201024182929/https://www.binghamton.edu/sociology/faculty/profile.html?id=acandela" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Ana Maria Candela</a> is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at <a href="https://www.binghamton.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Binghamton University</a>. According to her university biography, Dr. Candela’s research focuses on Chinese History, Society, and Migrations.

A leaked syllabus for Dr. Candela’s class—“Social Change-Introduction to Sociology”— announces that in class discussions, priority will be given to people of color and women.

The syllabus—first reported on by Campus Reform—<a href="https://www.scribd.com/document/559564087/SOC-100B-2022-Spring-Syallbus-2-Redacted#download&amp;from_embed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">asks students who are “white, male, or someone who is privileged by racial or gender structures</a>” to yield their questions or comments to women and “non-white folks” under the section titled “Class Discussion Guidelines.”  Dr. Candela describes the practice as “progressive stacking,” which grants preferential treatment to individuals based on skin color, sexuality, gender, and race.

“We practice progressive stacking when calling on people to participate in class discussions. This means we try to give priority to non-white folks, to women, and to shy and quiet people who rarely raise their hands. It also means that if you are a white male, or someone privileged by the racial and gender structures of our society, to have your voice easily voiced and heard, we will often ask you to hold off on your questions or comments to give others priority and will come back to you a bit later or at another time.” 

<a href="https://dailycaller.com/2017/11/06/progressive-stacking-is-infiltrating-college-classrooms/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Professors across the country have adopted this tactic</a>. Students considered marginalized by society are called on before white males. The tactic appears to have begun during Occupy Wall Street in 2011 before spreading to academia.

Earlier in the same section, Dr. Candela quotes Chinese dictator Mao Zedong favorably,

“Mao Zedong is famous for having once said, “No investigation, no right to speak.” While a bit harsh, it helps to convey the idea that speaking during class discussions should be based on having done your investigative work.” 

<a href="https://www.britannica.com/biography/Mao-Zedong" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mao</a>—who chaired the Chinese Communist Party from 1935 until his death in 1976—is considered one of the deadliest heads of state in history. <a href="https://www.heritage.org/asia/commentary/the-legacy-mao-zedong-mass-murder" target="_blank" rel="noopener">An estimated 65 million Chinese perished during his regime</a>. Mao’s farming collectivization—known as the “Great Leap Forward”—contributed to upwards of 40 million of these deaths during the largest man-made famine in history.

During China’s “Cultural Revolution”, Mao enlisted students—dubbed the “Red Guard''—<a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2021/01/chinas-rebel-historians/617265/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">to target teachers, intellectuals, workers, government officials, and civilians deemed insufficiently supportive of the Communist Party</a>. Millions were publicly shamed. An estimated 1.5 million people were killed before the purges ended in 1976.

The syllabus takes further care to note that masks are mandated during class. If any students arrive without a mask, Dr. Candela threatens to dismiss everyone in attendance and cancel the lecture entirely.

In a statement, a Binghamton University <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/binghamton-university-slaps-down-professors-progressive-stacking-section-of-syllabus-for-non-white-folks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">spokesman told Fox News the syllabus violates the faculty staff handbook and the term “progressive stacking” has been removed</a>.

The Professor Watchlist reached out to Binghamton University for comment but has not received a response by publication.

&nbsp;
UPDATE - October 4, 2022
&nbsp;

 Dr. Candela has resigned her position, citing the <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/professor-who-called-on-the-privileged-last-in-class-ends-up-resigning/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">"callous disrespect by members of the administration, [the] media and public relations and by a student in my course that to continue to contribute my labor to the institution would involve a profound lack of self-love and self-respect."</a>

<a href="https://www.binghamton.edu/psychology/people/profile.html?id=mjohnson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Matthew D. Johnson </a>is a professor of Professor of Psychology and Director of Clinical Training, <a href="https://theconversation.com/institutions/binghamton-university-state-university-of-new-york-2252" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Binghamton University, State University of New York</a>. According to his faculty profile, Johnson’s “research includes determining whether the current body of empirical literature about the predictors of relationship discord applies to low-income couples and people of color.”

Alongside a P.h.D. research assistant, Johnson wrote a <a href="https://theconversation.com/profiles/matthew-d-johnson-254463/articles" target="_blank" rel="noopener">piece</a> on June 18 for The Conversation titled “Expansion of marriage rights to same-sex couples also expanded access to the psychological benefits that come with tying the knot.”

The article aims to prove the benefits of marriage over cohabitation, with regard specifically to same-sex couples.

The authors wrote critically of heterosexual relationships (which they call “other-sex” relationships) and claim same-sex relationships have advantages that heterosexual ones do not. 

“In other-sex relationships, women tend to fall into <a href="https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1741-3737.2010.00726.x">subordinate positions</a>,” they claim. On the other hand, “Same-sex couples are free from traditional male-female gender dynamics, allowing more of a balance of power.”

Elaborating further on this position, the authors wrote:

“For instance, they have a more even division of <a href="https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1741-3737.2012.00992.x" target="_blank" rel="noopener">household chores</a>, and partners have a more equal say when <a href="https://doi.org/10.1111/j.0963-7214.2005.00375.x">resolving conflicts</a>. Greater equality may improve the quality of same-sex relationships,” they wrote.

<a href="https://www.uab.edu/cas/anthropology/people/faculty-directory/122-sara-h-parcak">Sarah H. Parcak</a> is a Professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Alabama-Birmingham (UAB). According to her university bio, Professor Parcak’s research and teaching interests include archaeology, archaeological science, and Egyptology.
Professor Parcak is known for her partisan use of her personal <a href="https://twitter.com/indyfromspace?lang=en">Twitter</a> account to attack conservatives and call for the tearing down of monuments.
As The Daily Caller documents, riots <a href="https://dailycaller.com/2020/08/25/list-of-cities-riots-three-months-george-floyd-death-looting-fires-police-seattle-portland-dc-atlanta/">broke out</a> in dozens of cities during the summer months of 2020. According to data from the Insurance Information Institute, the riots are the <a href="https://www.iii.org/fact-statistic/facts-statistics-civil-disorders">most destructive</a> in the history of the nation, resulting in $2 billion in estimated damages nationwide as of March 2021. According to The Federalist, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/">47 deaths</a> may be attributed to the riots.

Conversely, on the day of Rush Limbaugh’s passing, Parcak immediately took to Twitter to celebrate his death. As The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/here-are-the-professors-disparaging-rush-limbaughs-passing">reports</a>, Parcak refers to Limbaugh as a “piece of scum,” and expresses her hope that he “suffered until his last breath” in a now-deleted tweet.
“When a terrible piece of scum who caused immeasurable harm to millions dies, there is no sympathy. Only a desire that they suffered until their last breath.” 
<a href="https://www.rushlimbaugh.com/">Rush Limbaugh</a> was a popular radio personality known for his conservative views. He passed away in February 2021 at 70 years of age after battling lung cancer.  In an interview with Fox News after Limaugh’s passing, President Donald Trump <a href="https://www.air.tv/watch?v=hmCt0LrlSx6qndGAzaFjzw">described</a> him as a “great gentleman” and a “great man.”

According to data from the Insurance Information Institute, the riots are the <a href="https://www.iii.org/fact-statistic/facts-statistics-civil-disorders">most destructive</a> in the history of the nation, resulting in $2 billion in estimated damages nationwide as of March 2021. According to The Federalist, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/">47 deaths</a> may be attributed to the riots.

<a href="https://www.uab.edu/medicine/peds/faculty/ladinsky" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Morissa Ladinsky</a> is an M.D and Associate Professor in the Department of Pediatrics at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB).

During a presentation at the American Academy of Pediatrics, she offered praise toward a gender-dysphoric teen for taking his life.

Dr. Ladinsky was <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/US/leelah-alcorn-transgender-teens-reported-suicide-note-makes/story?id=27912326" target="_blank" rel="noopener">referencing the suicide of Ohio teenager Leelah Alcorn</a>—born Joshua Alcorn—who suffered from gender dysphoria for years. Alcorn took his life in 2014 by stepping in front of a tractor-trailer. The suicide note left requested that his death “mean something” to other transgender teenagers.

In her remarks, Dr. Ladinsky <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/video-transgender-teen-boldly-committed-suicide-pediatrics-professor-says/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">described Alcorn as “boldly” stepping in front of the oncoming truck:</a>

“In the final days of 2014, a local 16-year-old young lady, Leelah Alcorn, of trans experience, stepped boldly in front of a tractor-trailer, ending her life. “

She continued:

“Her suicide note, written to post on social media about an hour after her death, went viral, literally around the world. Now Leelah was not my patient, but I took care of hundreds of her classmates at Kings Mills High School. But, each day, on the way to work, I passed that spot where this teen boldly ended her life.” 

A tweet capturing her remarks soon went viral:

In a statement to AL.com, Dr. Ladinsky <a href="https://www.al.com/news/2022/10/uab-doctor-regrets-saying-trans-teen-died-boldly-in-suicide.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claimed it was never her intent to glorify suicide:</a>

“I regret my choice of words that has been interpreted to glorify self-harm, This was never my intent. In discussing the tragic event, I sought to convey my work toward a day when no teen feels they must take their life…Any suicide is devastating, and I want anyone who is struggling to know that help is available.”   

Dr. Ladinsky serves in the Gender Health Clinic at UAB, <a href="https://www.uabmedicine.org/patient-care/treatments/gender-health" target="_blank" rel="noopener">which offers a variety of “gender-affirming care” for adults and minors</a>, including hormone therapy, voice therapy, and “top surgery.”

The latter is a common term for a double mastectomy on a young girl as she transitions genders. “Hormone therapy” utilizes puberty-blocking drugs on teenagers as they transition. Even if the chemical dosage is halted,<a href="https://www.commonsense.news/p/top-trans-doctors-blow-the-whistle?s=r" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> children may suffer permanent health effects</a>.

Kendi, who founded CAR after the death of George Floyd, published a statement on Twitter explaining his decision to terminate several employees:
“There will always be people who critique the job someone else is doing—but I stand by my decision to take the long view for CAR, especially when racial and social justice organizations are under attack. I am proud of the many accomplishments of CAR’s talented and committed staff…”

In an interview with the Boston Globe, Kendi claimed that the layoffs “represent a strategic shift from operating as a high-growth startup pursuing many different projects…to becoming the world’s first residential fellowship program for antiracist intellectuals.”
In November, <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/kendis-antiracist-center-mostly-fired-black-and-latino-employees-analysis/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The College Fix</a> conducted a formal review and found that Kendi fired “four black employees, four Hispanics, two Indians, one Asian and one Middle Eastern employee.”
The College Fix concluded, “One reason may be that the center was more inclined to hire non-white staff from the beginning. But according to Kendi, any policy that results in racial disparities flows from and is proof of racism.”
On November 7, the Boston Globe <a href="https://www.bostonglobe.com/2023/11/07/metro/boston-university-audit-ibram-kendi-antiracist-center/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced</a> that Boston University’s internal audit—a review of CAR’s $40 million portfolio—showed no misappropriation or mismanagement of funds.

<a href="http://www.bu.edu/afam/faculty/saida-grundy/">Dr. Saida Grundy</a> a professor at Boston University tweeted about white, college men being a ‘problem population’ according to Campus Reform. She tweeted, “Every MLK week I commit myself to not spending a dime in white-owned businesses. and every year i find it nearly impossible.” Her tweets criticizing white people forced the president of the university to write a letter on the Boston University website addressing the tweets.

<a href="https://www.bu.edu/antiracism-center/profile/ibram-x-kendi/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ibram X. Kendi</a>—Boston University professor, political commentator and author of “<a href="https://www.ibramxkendi.com/how-to-be-an-antiracist/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">How to be Antiracist</a>”—allegedly fired racial minorities from the Center of Antiracist Research (CAR).

Kendi, who founded CAR after the death of George Floyd, published a statement on Twitter explaining his decision to terminate several employees:
“There will always be people who critique the job someone else is doing—but I stand by my decision to take the long view for CAR, especially when racial and social justice organizations are under attack. I am proud of the many accomplishments of CAR’s talented and committed staff…”

In an interview with the Boston Globe, Kendi claimed that the layoffs “represent a strategic shift from operating as a high-growth startup pursuing many different projects…to becoming the world’s first residential fellowship program for antiracist intellectuals.”

In November, <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/kendis-antiracist-center-mostly-fired-black-and-latino-employees-analysis/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The College Fix</a> conducted a formal review and found that Kendi fired “four black employees, four Hispanics, two Indians, one Asian and one Middle Eastern employee.”

The College Fix concluded, “One reason may be that the center was more inclined to hire non-white staff from the beginning. But according to Kendi, any policy that results in racial disparities flows from and is proof of racism.”

On November 7, the Boston Globe <a href="https://www.bostonglobe.com/2023/11/07/metro/boston-university-audit-ibram-kendi-antiracist-center/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced</a> that Boston University’s internal audit—a review of CAR’s $40 million portfolio—showed no misappropriation or mismanagement of funds.

<a href="https://www.bu.edu/ssw/profile/phillipe-copeland/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Phillipe Copeland</a> is a Clinical Associate Professor at Boston University’s School of Social Work. His specialties include “Theories of Justice, Racial Justice,” “Black Lives Matter” and “Abolition of Mass Incarceration.”

Copeland also serves as a faculty lead for education and training at the <a href="https://www.bu.edu/antiracism-center/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Boston University Center for Antiracist Research</a>. The Center’s mission is to “convene researchers and practitioners from various disciplines to figure out novel and practical ways to understand, explain and solve seemingly intractable problems of racial inequality and injustice.”

Copeland <a href="https://youtu.be/CWnHNPFrtIA" target="_blank" rel="noopener">appeared on City Line</a> to provide commentary on why Americans should be talking more about racism in popular culture. Copeland said:

“...[W]e can really think of pop culture as another kind of classroom….And so what we see, what we hear, what we experience through pop culture…can shape our perceptions of ourselves, the world, and the problems that we need to solve—problems like racism.”

<iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/CWnHNPFrtIA" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>

During the interview, Copeland shared “The Copeland Test”—a test he developed that allegedly detects antiracist themes in movies and TV shows. The assessment includes the following three categories:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Racism is portrayed as a systemic issue</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">People of color are not stereotyped or victims</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">White people working in solidarity with people of color</li>
</ul>
Copeland explained:

“Often people believe that racism is just a matter of blatant acts by whites of bigotry, discrimination or hatred. Sometimes racism looks like that. But sometimes it looks like policies or practices or belief systems that have similar effects to discrimination…An example [would be] the many voter suppression laws…[that] make it harder for black people to vote.”

In January 2023, Copeland published an article in the <a href="https://www.bostonglobe.com/2023/01/03/opinion/art-denial/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Boston Globe</a> titled, “The art of denial: How racism deniers obscure the reality of racism, minimizing its significance.” He claims that racism denial is a “political strategy” perpetuated by those who “attempt to convince people racism is no longer an issue.”

Drawing on Ibram X. Kendi’s “How to be an Antiracist” philosophy, Copeland outlines racism denial into eight forms of evidence, including “minimizing,” “myopia” and “revising history.” The full list with definitions can be found <a href="https://www.bostonglobe.com/2023/01/03/opinion/art-denial/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

<a href="https://www.fandm.edu/directory/leanne-roncolato.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Leanne M. Roncolato</a> is an Associate Professor of Economics at Franklin &amp; Marshall College. According to her university profile, Roncolato has “previously worked at the International [sic] Labour Organization in Geneva, Switzerland. Her early publications include work on international trade, structural change, and informal employment. Recently, she has been doing research on the economics of gay and lesbian households, the gendered division of care labor, and the economic experience of NYC subway dancers.” 
Roncolato was one of 125 Franklin &amp; Marshall faculty members who jointly signed a <a href="https://yaf.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Letter20of20Solidarity20Final.pdf.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">letter</a> to “denounce the [university’s] choice to invite transphobic speaker Paula Scanlan to our campus on March 27, in close proximity to Transgender Day of Visibility.”
Paula Scanlan was a teammate of “transgender” swimmer Lia Thomas, previously William Thomas, who swam on the women’s team at the University of Pennsylvania. Scanlan has <a href="https://rumble.com/v2sno54-the-university-wanted-us-to-be-quiet-lia-thomas-teammate-speaks-out-to-matt.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">expressed</a> that she was uncomfortable with Thomas being a member of the team due to his gender and felt her female teammates were overlooked in favor of Thomas’s greater strength and athleticism. 
Scanlan embarked on a lecture tour in partnership with Young America’s Foundation during the Spring 2024 semester to discuss her college swim experience at universities across the country. Her lecture was titled “Biological Men Should Not Compete in Women’s Sports.”
The faculty who wrote the letter state that Scanlan “is working with a well-funded, far-right ‘culture war’ machine that seeks to sow division, provoke backlash, generate publicity, and weaken public confidence in higher education.”
The writers further claim that Scanlan is “transphobic” because of her statements about Thomas. They say Scanlan has “refused to acknowledge the identity of the trans community:” 
“In videos of her campus visits available online, we have seen Scanlan disrespect, misgender, and mock trans people. Scanlan also has a history of (a) invoking the unsubstantiated idea that the presence of transgender women creates a threat of sexual violence to cisgender women, and (b) making direct reference to the physical appearance of Lia Thomas’s genitalia.”
Towards the end of their letter, the professors state their supposed commitment to free speech, no matter how disagreeable that speech may be to them. Yet, they are against the university inviting “speakers to campus whose demonstrated aim is to demean, devalue, and threaten the lives of our friends, family, and community members.” 
They conclude the letter with the following statements in affirmation of the “transgender community:”
“We believe that our role as a college community must include speaking out against such dehumanization. To the queer, trans, and nonbinary members of our community: you have allies on this campus who value and support you. We are committed to fighting alongside you. To President Altmann and the F&amp;M administration: we call on you to make a strong, unequivocal statement of care and support on behalf of all of our LGBTQ+ students, colleagues, and community members.”

The authors put forth the following goal to resolve what they deem to be the lessening of diversity and equity caused by COVID-19:
“For starters, every institution must acknowledge the problem and openly address what can appear invisible and ignored to those of us living in this reality. The academy risks emerging from this pandemic with less diversity and gender equity than before unless we change course. The first step is initiating a conversation and listening. Once people have a space to talk openly about their challenges, a lot of problem solving and solutions naturally emerge.”\
McNulty was one of 125 Franklin &amp; Marshall faculty members who jointly signed a <a href="https://yaf.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Letter20of20Solidarity20Final.pdf.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">letter</a> to “denounce the [university’s] choice to invite transphobic speaker Paula Scanlan to our campus on March 27, in close proximity to Transgender Day of Visibility.”

Paula Scanlan was a teammate of “transgender” swimmer Lia Thomas, previously William Thomas, who swam on the women’s team at the University of Pennsylvania. Scanlan has <a href="https://rumble.com/v2sno54-the-university-wanted-us-to-be-quiet-lia-thomas-teammate-speaks-out-to-matt.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">expressed</a> that she was uncomfortable with Thomas being a member of the team due to his gender and felt her female teammates were overlooked in favor of Thomas’s greater strength and athleticism. 

Scanlan embarked on a lecture tour in partnership with Young America’s Foundation during the Spring 2024 semester to discuss her college swim experience at universities across the country. Her lecture was titled “Biological Men Should Not Compete in Women’s Sports.”

The faculty who wrote the letter state that Scanlan “is working with a well-funded, far-right ‘culture war’ machine that seeks to sow division, provoke backlash, generate publicity, and weaken public confidence in higher education.”

The writers further claim that Scanlan is “transphobic” because of her statements about Thomas. They say Scanlan has “refused to acknowledge the identity of the trans community:” 
“In videos of her campus visits available online, we have seen Scanlan disrespect, misgender, and mock trans people. Scanlan also has a history of (a) invoking the unsubstantiated idea that the presence of transgender women creates a threat of sexual violence to cisgender women, and (b) making direct reference to the physical appearance of Lia Thomas’s genitalia.”
Towards the end of their letter, the professors state their supposed commitment to free speech, no matter how disagreeable that speech may be to them. Yet, they are against the university inviting “speakers to campus whose demonstrated aim is to demean, devalue, and threaten the lives of our friends, family, and community members.” 

They conclude the letter with the following statements in affirmation of the “transgender community:”
“We believe that our role as a college community must include speaking out against such dehumanization. To the queer, trans, and nonbinary members of our community: you have allies on this campus who value and support you. We are committed to fighting alongside you. To President Altmann and the F&amp;M administration: we call on you to make a strong, unequivocal statement of care and support on behalf of all of our LGBTQ+ students, colleagues, and community members.”

Goldberg was one of 125 Franklin &amp; Marshall faculty members who jointly signed a <a href="https://yaf.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Letter20of20Solidarity20Final.pdf.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">letter</a> to “denounce the [university’s] choice to invite transphobic speaker Paula Scanlan to our campus on March 27, in close proximity to Transgender Day of Visibility.”

Paula Scanlan was a teammate of “transgender” swimmer Lia Thomas, previously William Thomas, who swam on the women’s team at the University of Pennsylvania. Scanlan has <a href="https://rumble.com/v2sno54-the-university-wanted-us-to-be-quiet-lia-thomas-teammate-speaks-out-to-matt.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">expressed</a> that she was uncomfortable with Thomas being a member of the team due to his gender and felt her female teammates were overlooked in favor of Thomas’s greater strength and athleticism. 

Scanlan embarked on a lecture tour in partnership with Young America’s Foundation during the Spring 2024 semester to discuss her college swim experience at universities across the country. Her lecture was titled “Biological Men Should Not Compete in Women’s Sports.”

The faculty who wrote the letter state that Scanlan “is working with a well-funded, far-right ‘culture war’ machine that seeks to sow division, provoke backlash, generate publicity, and weaken public confidence in higher education.”

The writers further claim that Scanlan is “transphobic” because of her statements about Thomas. They say Scanlan has “refused to acknowledge the identity of the trans community:” 
“In videos of her campus visits available online, we have seen Scanlan disrespect, misgender, and mock trans people. Scanlan also has a history of (a) invoking the unsubstantiated idea that the presence of transgender women creates a threat of sexual violence to cisgender women, and (b) making direct reference to the physical appearance of Lia Thomas’s genitalia.”
Towards the end of their letter, the professors state their supposed commitment to free speech, no matter how disagreeable that speech may be to them. Yet, they are against the university inviting “speakers to campus whose demonstrated aim is to demean, devalue, and threaten the lives of our friends, family, and community members.” 

They conclude the letter with the following statements in affirmation of the “transgender community:”
“We believe that our role as a college community must include speaking out against such dehumanization. To the queer, trans, and nonbinary members of our community: you have allies on this campus who value and support you. We are committed to fighting alongside you. To President Altmann and the F&amp;M administration: we call on you to make a strong, unequivocal statement of care and support on behalf of all of our LGBTQ+ students, colleagues, and community members.”

The faculty who wrote the letter state that Scanlan “is working with a well-funded, far-right ‘culture war’ machine that seeks to sow division, provoke backlash, generate publicity, and weaken public confidence in higher education.”

The writers further claim that Scanlan is “transphobic” because of her statements about Thomas. They say Scanlan has “refused to acknowledge the identity of the trans community:” 
“In videos of her campus visits available online, we have seen Scanlan disrespect, misgender, and mock trans people. Scanlan also has a history of (a) invoking the unsubstantiated idea that the presence of transgender women creates a threat of sexual violence to cisgender women, and (b) making direct reference to the physical appearance of Lia Thomas’s genitalia.”
Towards the end of their letter, the professors state their supposed commitment to free speech, no matter how disagreeable that speech may be to them. Yet, they are against the university inviting “speakers to campus whose demonstrated aim is to demean, devalue, and threaten the lives of our friends, family, and community members.” 

They conclude the letter with the following statements in affirmation of the “transgender community:”
“We believe that our role as a college community must include speaking out against such dehumanization. To the queer, trans, and nonbinary members of our community: you have allies on this campus who value and support you. We are committed to fighting alongside you. To President Altmann and the F&amp;M administration: we call on you to make a strong, unequivocal statement of care and support on behalf of all of our LGBTQ+ students, colleagues, and community members.”

According to <a href="https://www.easternecho.com/article/2024/10/emu-suspends-professor-amid-publicity-over-criminal-sexual-conduct-investigation" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Eastern Echo</a>, Coatings Research Institute Director Vijay Mannari was suspended from teaching due to his appearance on a catch a predator show where he was caught and arrested for attempting to have sex with a minor. 
In an <a href="https://www.watchtrublu.com/takedown-with-chris-hansen/season:10/videos/td-huron-township-vijay-fc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">episode</a> of “Takedown with Chris Hansen,” a law enforcement agent acted as a 15-year-old girl in a series of messages with Mannari. The professor sent sexually explicit texts to the agent before he arrived at the set-up house. He was arrested after talking with Chris Hansen about his actions.  
Eastern Michigan University issued the following <a href="https://today.emich.edu/story/statement/12839" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> in light of Mannari’s suspension:
“The actions the individual is accused of are detestable and abhorrent, and stand against everything the University stands for. 
Upon learning about this matter, the individual was immediately suspended, barred from campus, denied access to University email, and prohibited from any further contact with the University or our students. 
Although the investigation remains ongoing, the University is not aware of any allegations against the individual that involve University employees or students.
The University is cooperating fully with law enforcement and will continue to monitor the situation closely. We take these matters very seriously, as the safety and well-being of our campus community is our top priority.”
Mannari’s profile on <a href="https://fozdardynamics.com/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fozdar Dynamic</a>—a chemical solutions research group–states that he “has a very strong professional network across the globe, is very active in serving many professional organizations, universities, and companies as a member of technical advisory boards.”

He is also Director of the <a href="https://www.emich.edu/smart-research-project/index.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Southeastern Michigan Criminal Justice Policy Research Project (SMART)</a>.

In an article for <a href="https://www.mlive.com/news/ann-arbor/2021/11/eastern-michigan-university-project-to-address-racial-inequities-in-policing.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MLive</a>, Karpiak described SMART as a “multidisciplinary team consisting of EMU faculty in sociology, anthropology, criminology, political science and public administration programs to address the deep-rooted issues of our current system.” SMART “seeks to train local agencies to ‘promote transformation in public safety.’”

SMART is currently <a href="https://www.emich.edu/smart-research-project/index.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">working on three projects</a>, one of which is titled “Understanding the Black Experience of Policing in East Dearborn.” This project is collecting oral history narratives of the experiences of black residents with the Dearborn Police Department. These will be used as part of a “broader truth and reconciliation project geared towards opening up a community-led conversation that will explore alternative visions for public safety in East Dearborn.”

Karpiak is also a member of the <a href="https://www.reenvisionoursafety.org/about.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Coalition to Re-Envision Our Safety (CROS)</a>, a “multiracial group” that “care[s] deeply about transformative justice and building care-based safety in our community.” The group says they “fully support a non-police/unarmed response” and claim they have written an “effective proposal” to accomplish this goal.

The <a href="https://truthout.org/articles/police-can-make-a-crisis-worse-the-public-needs-alternatives-in-an-emergency/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">main aspects of the CROS plan</a> include that the:

In October 2022, Champion-Shaw created a bulletin board display titled “Understanding Christian Privilege” which remained up until the end of the 2022-2023 school year. <a href="https://campusreform.org/article?id=23356" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Campus Reform</a> posted photos of the display, which showed six full pages of detailed information. The information included the definition that Christian privilege is “the idea that Christians receive inherent advantages in society (in school, in the workplace, and in public places) due to the perception that Christianity is status quo, while other religions are not.”
The display also featured a “Christian Privilege Checklist” where students could see if they “ever benefit from or exhibit behaviors denoting their favored status as Christians.” Some of the items on the checklist included:
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“Your faith is accepted/supported at your workplace”</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“Music and television programs pertaining to your religion’s holidays are readily accessible”</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“You can worship freely, without fear of violence or threats”</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“A bumper sticker supporting your religion won’t likely lead to your car being vandalized”</li>
</ul>
Additionally, the <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/public-university-display-teaches-christian-privilege-directly-connected-white-supremacy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">materials on the bulletin board</a> stated, “Christian privilege is directly connected to white supremacy and settler colonialism.” It further described Manifest Destiny as “the whole idea that drove white people’s racist and genocidal entitlement to take over North America,” saying:
“If murdering people and forcing them to commit to your religion while you take over their lands and try your hardest to stamp out their culture isn’t the apex of privilege, I don’t know what else is.” 
Other assertions Champion-Shaw’s display made included:
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“Christians do not face systemic discrimination in the U.S.”</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“Religious diversity is not the same as Christianity being under attack”</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“Christianity is too often seen as synonymous with moral goodness”</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“To wield Christian privilege is often to weaponize religion against non-Christians”</li>
</ul>
Champion-Shaw described herself as “the creator and organizer” of the display and told Campus Reform she would be “happy to chat after graduation.” However, Campus Reform reports she has not replied to any of their follow-up inquiries.

“When Trump ran for president in 2016, he used racially divisive rhetoric, calling Mexican immigrants criminals and rapists, proposing a ban on all Muslims entering the U.S. and suggesting a judge should recuse himself from a case solely because of the judge’s Mexican heritage.” 
He also claims:
“His campaign used the slogan “Make America Great Again,” which had been widely criticized for being a dog whistle to white people who felt that minorities were encroaching on their country.”

During the Spring 2021 semester, Professor Lamb taught a course titled “Media Literacy.” <a href="https://news.iu.edu/live/news/27377-timely-media-literacy-course-to-examine-fake-news" target="_blank" rel="noopener">News at IU</a> says the course “will help students decipher the noise and identify fake and factual news.” In an interview, Lamb was asked about his inspiration for the course. He stated:
“My take on media literacy will be based heavily on what President Donald Trump has called “fake news.” … his objective was to discredit the news media and therefore discredit any criticism of him and, in doing so, seize power in the way authoritarian despots have long done.”

Amonette writes that the course will “examine evidence of racial disparities in criminal justice outcomes for African Americans, LatinX, and other minoritized groups.” In addition, the course will:
“...examine reforms to simultaneously reduce the size and scope of our criminal justice system and increase public safety, as well as policing reforms to maximize justice for all who live in America, while maintaining public safety.”

<a href="https://fsph.iupui.edu/about/directory/halverson-paul.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Paul Halverson</a> is a Professor and Founding Dean of the Richard M. Fairbanks School of Public Health at Indiana University.

In April 2021, Halverson wrote an article for The Conversation titled, <a href="https://theconversation.com/declaring-racism-a-public-health-crisis-brings-more-attention-to-solving-long-ignored-racial-gaps-in-health-143330" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Declaring racism a public health crisis brings more attention to solving long-ignored racial gaps in health.”</a> The article was written shortly after CDC Director Dr. Rochelle P. Walensky <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2021/s0408-racism-health.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">called racism an epidemic</a> that affects “the entire health of our nation.”

Halverson agrees with Walensky and writes that “drawing attention to the racial gaps in health care is an important step in addressing them.” He claims acknowledging racism as a public health threat “may require all health-related professional training programs to include structural racism identification, implied bias and anti-racism strategies within the curriculum.”

Halverson concludes his article by stating,
“Treating racism like the disease that the CDC says it is suggests boosting our investment in public health funding would be money well spent.” 
On June 1, 2020, following the death of George Floyd and bloody protests across the country, Halverson released a message titled <a href="https://fsph.iupui.edu/news-events/news/response-to-racism.html?_gl=1*1k82m4j*_ga*ODgwNDQzNTAuMTY2Mzk3MTkwMA..*_ga_61CH0D2DQW*MTY2OTkxODk1NS4xMS4xLjE2Njk5MTkxNzUuMC4wLjA.&amp;_ga=2.265060108.209906179.1669918956-88044350.1663971900" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Our Response to Racism.”</a> In his letter, he writes:
“Our words and actions have power. By not calling out racism, we become complicit in allowing a culture of racism to continue.”
He continues:
“Having white privilege doesn’t mean that your life isn’t difficult. But it does mean that you aren’t targeted because of the color of your skin.”

<a href="https://oneill.iupui.edu/contact/people-directory/atlas-pierre.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pierre Atlas</a> is a Senior Lecturer at the Paul H. O’Neill School of Public and Environmental Affairs at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis. Atlas teaches undergraduate and graduate courses in the Public Affairs and Criminal Justice programs.

For Black History Month, Atlas wrote an article for the Indianapolis Business Journal titled “<a href="https://www.ibj.com/articles/pierre-atlas-acknowledging-reality-is-not-being-woke" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Acknowledging reality is not being ‘woke.’</a>” He begins by discussing Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s recent proposal to ban state-funded universities from teaching topics related to diversity, equity, and inclusion. He writes, “Banning DEI might score points in the culture war, but it won’t erase the facts or the legacy of America’s history.”

Atlas says, “Racism might no longer be lawful, but its deep legacy (and continued practice) infects our social, cultural, economic and legal institutions to this day.” He states:
“The physical mobility of African Americans has been constrained in law and in everyday practice since the time of slavery: from slave patrols (America’s original organized police forces), to ‘sundown towns,’ to today’s racial profiling.” 
Atlas believes:
“Driving while Black, shopping while Black, even walking or jogging while Black produces humiliations, if not life-threatening encounters, around the country every day.” 
He concludes by arguing that “institutional and systemic racism is real” and “acknowledging this unfortunate reality should not be dismissed, ridiculed or banned as ‘wokeness.’”

Atlas’s Black History Month article is not the first time he has been outspoken about DeSantis’s new bill. On his Twitter account, where he describes himself as “Biased in favor of democracy,” he tweeted:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
This bill, supported by <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/DeSantis?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">#DeSantis</a>, will DESTROY <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/highereducation?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">#highereducation</a> in Florida.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Atlas has also been outspoken about the need for gun control. In an article for <a href="https://theconversation.com/american-gun-culture-is-based-on-frontier-mythology-but-ignores-how-common-gun-restrictions-were-in-the-old-west-184932" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Conversation</a>, he writes that “for those Americans who see the gun as both symbolizing and guaranteeing individual liberty, gun control laws are perceived as fundamentally un-American and a threat to their freedom.”

He claims:
“Hardcore gun owners, their lobbyists and many members of the Republican Party refuse to allow the thousands of annual gun deaths and the additional thousands of nonfatal shootings to be used as justifications for restricting their rights as law-abiding citizens. They are willing to accept gun violence as an inevitable side effect of a free and armed but violent society.” 
In a 2017 op-ed for <a href="https://www.indystar.com/story/opinion/2017/10/23/atlas-right-own-guns-isnt-unlimited/790169001/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Indianapolis Star</a>, Atlas writes, “Gun rights advocates, for their part, need to recognize that no right, not even the Second Amendment, is absolute.”

On his Twitter, he equates gun ownership to white supremacy:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
I had two thoughts as I saw this, after I stopped laughing:
1) No amount of guns will cure this man’s insecurities.

In October 2022, Champion-Shaw created a bulletin board display titled “Understanding Christian Privilege” which remained up until the end of the 2022-2023 school year. <a href="https://campusreform.org/article?id=23356" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Campus Reform</a> posted photos of the display, which showed six full pages of detailed information. The information included the definition that Christian privilege is “the idea that Christians receive inherent advantages in society (in school, in the workplace, and in public places) due to the perception that Christianity is status quo, while other religions are not.”

The display also featured a “Christian Privilege Checklist” where students could see if they “ever benefit from or exhibit behaviors denoting their favored status as Christians.” Some of the items on the checklist included:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“Your faith is accepted/supported at your workplace”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“Music and television programs pertaining to your religion’s holidays are readily accessible”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“You can worship freely, without fear of violence or threats”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“A bumper sticker supporting your religion won’t likely lead to your car being vandalized”</li>
</ul>
Additionally, the <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/public-university-display-teaches-christian-privilege-directly-connected-white-supremacy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">materials on the bulletin board</a> stated, “Christian privilege is directly connected to white supremacy and settler colonialism.” It further described Manifest Destiny as “the whole idea that drove white people’s racist and genocidal entitlement to take over North America,” saying:
“If murdering people and forcing them to commit to your religion while you take over their lands and try your hardest to stamp out their culture isn’t the apex of privilege, I don’t know what else is.” 
Other assertions Champion-Shaw’s display made included:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“Christians do not face systemic discrimination in the U.S.”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“Religious diversity is not the same as Christianity being under attack”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“Christianity is too often seen as synonymous with moral goodness”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“To wield Christian privilege is often to weaponize religion against non-Christians”</li>
</ul>
Champion-Shaw described herself as “the creator and organizer” of the display and told Campus Reform she would be “happy to chat after graduation.” However, Campus Reform reports she has not replied to any of their follow-up inquiries.

<a href="https://cronkite.asu.edu/about/faculty-and-leadership/faculty/gilgerbio">Kristin Gilger</a> is the Reynolds Professor of Business Journalism and the interim dean at the Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication at Arizona State University (ASU). She is the author of the book <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Theres-No-Crying-Newsrooms-Learned/dp/1538121492">“There’s No Crying in Newsrooms”</a> and has served in various roles at ASU since 2002.

Gilger has been mired in controversy since assuming her role as dean this past summer. The previous candidate, Sonya Forte Duhe, was replaced by Gilger after <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/after-tweet-supporting-good-police-officers-arizona-state-revokes-journalism-dean-offer/">her offer was rescinded by the university</a>. After tweeting an image that was considered too positive towards police officers, Duhe was condemned by university faculty for showing “poor judgment.”

Gilger has come under fire after pressuring Rae’Lee Klein, a senior journalism major, and station manager for ASU’s Blaze radio, to resign from her position after <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/08/28/this-is-why-jacob-blake-had-a-warrant-out-for-his-arrest/?preview_id=16209831">tweeting and soon deleting a New York Post article</a> detailing the warrant issued for Jacob Blake’s arrest;

“Always more to the story, folks. Please read this article to get to the background of Jacob Blake’s warrant. You’ll be quite disgusted“ 

Blake—who was wanted for sexually assaulting his ex-girlfriend—was shot in the back by police after resisting arrest and allegedly reaching for a knife on the floor of his car.

Facing immediate backlash for her tweet, the Board of Directors at the station <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/09/18/arizona-student-journalist-cancelled-over-jacob-blake-tweet/">voted unanimously to remove her from her position</a>. Later releasing a statement, the board announced that “Blaze Radio firmly believes that Black Lives Matter.”

“The board gave Klein an opportunity to step down under her own will. As of the time of this statement, Klein has not made the decision to resign…In light of this, we do not recognize Rae'Lee Klein as the station manager of Blaze Radio.”  

Gilger has claimed that the University is not moving to remove Klein. In a statement to the New York Post, Gilger stated that Klein is not being targeted by the university for her views.

“Any actions that are unfolding are not punishment for a tweet. I have been clear with Rae’Lee that she would not be removed as station manager of Blaze Radio, a student internet radio station, because of the views she expressed,”  

However, in email exchanges between Klein and Gilger, she did in fact act to pressure Klein to resign, contrary to her statement.

In their exchange (pictured below) Gilger clearly states that Klein remaining in her position, “is not an option,” as she had lost the confidence of the board.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-909" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Screen-Shot-2020-09-30-at-5.18.44-PM.png" alt="" width="500" height="366" />

&nbsp;

Although suggesting new roles that Klein may assume, Gilger cites the "Media Guidelines for Student Journalists" to warn her to refrain in the future from posting information “that could call into question your ability to act independently as a journalist.” This seems to contradict Gilger’s claim that Klein was not being targeted by the university for her views.

&nbsp;

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-910" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Screen-Shot-2020-09-30-at-5.24.32-PM.png" alt="" width="317" height="500" /><img class="aligncenter wp-image-911 size-full" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Screen-Shot-2020-09-30-at-4.51.32-PM-1-e1601512111513.png" alt="" width="339" height="642" /><img class="aligncenter wp-image-912 size-full" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Screen-Shot-2020-09-30-at-5.27.15-PM.png" alt="" width="342" height="540" />

&nbsp;

At this time, Klein has refused to step down from her role, and officially remains the station’s manager.

Update: In February of 2021, Klein announced that she <a href="https://www.westernjournal.com/college-pays-settlement-conservative-student-ousted-manager-role/">has reached a settlement with Gilger</a> over a lawsuit she had filed against ASU several months prior.

<a href="https://cisa.asu.edu/node/7955" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Asao Inoue</a> is a professor and Associate Dean of Academic Affairs, Equity and Inclusion in the College of Integrative Science and Arts at Arizona State University. According to his University biography, Inoue’s <a href="https://cisa.asu.edu/node/7955" target="_blank" rel="noopener">research</a> focuses on “antiracist and social justice theory and practices in writing assessments.”

Prior to his role at Arizona State, Inoue served as the Director of the Writing Center at the University of Washington-Tacoma. As Daily Caller <a href="https://dailycaller.com/2017/02/20/college-writing-center-declares-american-grammar-a-racist-unjust-language-structure/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">documents</a>, Inoue <a href="\&quot;https://stjenglish.com/standing-against-racism-in-the-field-of-writing-dr-asao-inoue-uw-tacoma/\&quot;" target="_blank" rel="noopener">commissioned</a> an anti-racist poster in an effort to ensure that his staff did not “embrace racist practices.” Inoue maintains that racism is embedded in the English language as well as in society itself, writing that “racism is the normal condition of things.

According to the text of the poster, recorded by The College Fix, Inoue writes that his goal is to <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/university-writing-center-combats-racist-unjust-language-structures/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">help students become more critical of “unjust language structures”</a> in order to succeed in what Inoue claims is a racist society.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1501 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-08-10T135356.265-e1628628890970-1024x296.png" alt="" width="580" height="168" />

Inoue would later author a book on his beliefs titled, “Labor-Based Grading Contracts: Building Equity and Inclusion in the Compassionate Writing Classroom.” In an excerpt from the book, Inoue declares that he focuses on grading students for their efforts, and not the “quality” of their writing.

“This book focuses on one kind of grading contract, one that calculates final course grades purely by the labor students complete, not by any judgments of the quality of their writing.”

As Daily Wire reports, Inoue writes that his <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/arizona-state-dean-grading-writing-based-on-quality-is-racist-promotes-white-language-supremacy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">beliefs and teaching practices are based on “critical-race theory,” or “labor-based theory.”</a>As Breitbart documents, c<a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2012/03/11/what-is-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ritical race theory is an intellectual branch of Marxism</a> that views America and all of its institutions as being infected with white supremacy.

He writes further that grading students only perpetuates white supremacy.

“The traditional purposes and methods used for grading writing turn out to be de facto racist and White supremacist….Grading by a standard, thus, is how White language supremacy is perpetuated in schools”

Inoue also draws an analogy between issuing grades for English and the institution of slavery, stating that grading is a “slave-making mechanism.”

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1504 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-08-10T140031.897-e1628629269866-1024x317.png" alt="" width="580" height="180" />

Inoue believes that even the physical proximity of white people causes racism. In a YouTube video of Inoue speaking before the 2019 Convention of the National Council of Teachers of English, Inoue <a href="https://youtu.be/brPGTewcDYY?t=994" target="_blank" rel="noopener">states that even the presence of white people “perpetuates racism.</a>”

Inoue delivered this speech while <a href="https://cccc.ncte.org/cccc/about/chairs" target="_blank" rel="noopener">serving as the Conference Chair of the Conference on College Composition and Communication</a>, which bills itself as the <a href="https://cccc.ncte.org/cccc/about/chairs" target="_blank" rel="noopener">largest professional organization for researching and teaching writing composition</a>. It is the annual conference of the National Council of Teachers of English, which <a href="https://ncte.org/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">boasts over 25,000 English and Language Arts teachers as members all over the country</a>.

<a href="https://isearch.asu.edu/profile/597528" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Lorraine Moya Salas</a> is an Instructor in the <a href="https://socialwork.asu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">School of Social Work</a> at <a href="https://campus.asu.edu/dohttps://campus.asu.edu/downtown-phoenixwntown-phoenix" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Arizona State University - Downtown Phoenix</a>.

During a lecture in one of her courses—titled, “Foundations of Social Work”—Dr. Lorraine can be heard describing the United States as a “white supremacist system,” that was founded for the benefit of white people at the expense of Native Americans and people of color.

In the class—recorded and provided exclusively to the Professor Watchlist team by an anonymous source—Dr. Salas urges her students to confront the “implicit biases” present in themselves and American society. Claiming that stereotypes and prejudices construct implicit bias, she warns that unconscious actions can cause serious harm.

Attempting to provide an example to bolster her claim, Dr. Salas states that implicit bias causes doctors to act as if their black patients are slaves. She proceeds to cite a study that claims doctors give less pain medication to black patients as compared to white ones.

Dr. Salas alleges this is the product of the legacy of slavery; slave owners viewed blacks as subhuman and able to withstand a large amount of pain, so therefore doctors continue to believe that blacks can withstand a large amount of pain. Doctors will therefore prescribe black patients less pain medication.

[video width="1280" height="720" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Lorraine-Moya-Salas-Part-1_updated.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

Dr. Salas additionally cites a study that claims teachers will call on boys more often than girls in their classrooms. She claims this as proof that teachers think boys answer questions correctly more often than girls.

[video width="1280" height="720" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Lorraine-Moya-Salas-Part-1_2.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

Throughout the lecture, Dr. Salas alleges that numerous racial, ethnic, and gender disparities in society are a result of implicit bias. She urges her students, as future social workers, to confront their own implicit biases and assigns an “implicit bias test” for them to complete before the next class.

Dr. Salas additionally claims that institutional racism produces inequality and disparities, attributing it to the legacy of slavery in the Americas. Although acknowledging that all cultures practiced slavery, she claims that no slave trade was enforced along racial lines until the Europeans did so in order to specifically oppress people of color.

Citing slavery, the genocide of Native Americans and discriminatory, Jim Crow laws, Dr. Salas claims that  America was constructed as a “white supremacist culture” for the sole benefit of white people who have maintained their “white power structures” ever since.

&nbsp;

In the accompanying slides, Dr. Salas cites Critical Race Theory to define white supremacy as a, “political or socio-economic system where white people enjoy structural advantage and rights that other racial and ethnic groups do not, both at a collective and an individual level”.

&nbsp;

As <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2012/03/11/what-is-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ben Shapiro writes in Breitbart News</a>, Critical Race Theory is an intellectual branch of Marxism that views America and all of its institutions as being infected with white supremacy—to the point of some, including <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/nikolehannahjones" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nikole Hannah-Jones</a>, even <a href="https://reason.com/2020/09/23/1619-project-nikole-hannah-jones-1776-founding-race-new-york-times/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claiming</a> America’s real founding was in 1619 when the first slave stepped foot in North America, and not 1776 when the American colonies declared independence from England.

Dr. Salas had previously published a paper on critical theory, titled, “Critical Theory: Pathway from Dichotomous to Integrated Social Work Practice.” In it, she urges social <a href="https://socialwork.rutgers.edu/file/4791/download" target="_blank" rel="noopener">workers to embrace critical theory in order to accomplish social justice</a> “at all levels of practice.”

Dr. Salas further states that while people of color can hold prejudiced views, they cannot be racist as they have no institutional power in a system that values whiteness. She urges white students in the class to be “allies” in order to help minorities access the resources available to them by way of “white privilege.”

In 2019, Cooper founded the “<a href="https://katelyncooper1.wixsite.com/bioedlab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cooper Biology Education Research Lab</a>” because she, as a gay woman, was “worried about biology research not being inclusive enough of “LGBTQ+ people,” according to <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/inclusive-lab-for-lgbt-students-created-by-arizona-state-professor/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">College Fix. </a>

Cooper is “upset that heterosexual white [men] dominate the biological sciences.” She told <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/nbc-out-proud/professor-making-biology-education-inclusive-lgbtq-undergrads-rcna28813" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBC News</a> that “The goal isn’t just to make classrooms more inclusive, she explained, but to bring more diversity to a field that has traditionally been dominated by straight white men.” 

Cooper also told NBC News her hopes for collegiate science education: “Cooper said science educators can make their classrooms more inclusive by being openly supportive of LGBTQ students.” According to Cooper, “Educators can, for example, put an inclusivity statement on their syllabus or website, foster safe environments for students to reveal their LGBTQ identities and familiarize themselves with on-campus LGBTQ resources in case students come to them for support.”

<a href="https://search.asu.edu/profile/291312" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rashad Shabazz</a> is an Associate Professor of African American Studies in the School of Social Transformation at Arizona State University (ASU). Shabazz’s university profile says his “academic expertise brings together human geography, black cultural studies, gender studies, and critical prison studies.” He also holds a Ph.D. in History of Consciousness from the University of California-Santa Cruz.

Shabazz teaches several race-based courses including “<a href="https://webapp4.asu.edu/bookstore/viewsyllabus/2227/88026">AFR301:</a> Race and Racism in the Black Diaspora.” The course description says, 

“Through slave rebellion in Haiti, black notions of freedom, black ideas of ‘being,’ and what on thinker calls ‘black reason,’ this class aims to show that race and racism is more than a tapestry of dominion, but…a reservoir of revolutionary ideas that…transform the world.”

In response to the killing of Tyre Nichols - a black man who was arrested and beaten and later died in the custody of black police officers - Shabazz <a href="https://theconversation.com/black-police-officers-arent-colorblind-theyre-infected-by-the-same-anti-black-bias-as-american-society-and-police-in-general-198721" target="_blank" rel="noopener">published an article</a> in The Conversation entitled, “Black police officers aren’t colorblind–they’re infected by the same anti-black bias as American society and police in general.”

In the article, Shabazz argued, “Policing in the U.S. has, from its inception, treated Black people as domestic enemies. From slave patrols…to the murder of George Floyd, and now the death of Nichols, law enforcement officers often have viewed black people as what…W.E.B. Du Bois called a ‘problem.’”

He continued, “It’s hard to investigate the minds of the officers who beat Nichols so savagely and say for sure what motivated them. But there is ample research that suggests anti-blackness is a factor in American policing. And black officers, agents of an institutionally racist system, are affected by this.”

McCall’s biography says her research “centers on how race, class and culture impact educational equity in music learning and teaching.”

<a href="https://news.asu.edu/20210721-critical-race-theory-scholar-joins-asu-school-music-dance-and-theatre" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ASU News</a> announced McCall’s position in 2021, stating that she was “one of the few scholars whose music education research focuses on race and racism through critical race theory [CRT] and double consciousness theory…”

The article goes on to say that McCall was the only African-American student to earn a doctorate in music education from ASU. McCall also reportedly said that she feels she can offer “an informed perspective based on experience and expertise” that can optimize K-12 learning experiences.

In July 2022, McCall was featured in a <a href="https://www.classicfm.com/discover-music/critical-race-theory-music-education/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Classic FM article</a> titled, “Music professor breaks down [CRT] and why it’s crucial for 21st-century music education.” McCall told the publication:

“‘[CRT] is a tool that was conceptualized and born out of critical legal studies as a means to analyze, critique and to help dismantle racism…Even though…we like to think of ourselves as being more progressive and more innovative…When you look at a university curriculum in America, it gives you a really nice snapshot of Western Europe.’”

She informs readers of her experiences as an “African American in music education…whose structures and social actors attempted to silence [her] voice.” Although McCall experienced notable success and received much encouragement throughout her pursuits, she wrote: 

“Despite my professors and peers at ASU ensuring me that I was in a safe place, I didn’t believe it because I knew that outside of ASU, society viewed my voice differently and that the profession did not want to hear what I had to say. These were my perceptions…”

According to Sampson’s faculty profile, “Her research focuses on educational leadership, policy, and equity from three interrelated perspectives—democracy, community advocacy, and politics.” Sampson’s areas of expertise include “Critical Race Theory,” “Feminist Theory,” “Race and Racism in Education,” and “Social Justice in Education.”

Sampson has published several gender- and race-based articles. In 2016, Sampson <a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/13613324.2020.1842346?scroll=top&amp;needAccess=true" target="_blank" rel="noopener">co-authored</a> “Engaging (or not) in coalition politics: a case study of Black and Latinx community advocacy toward educational equity.” In the abstract notes, Sampson et al. state: 
“We use ‘Latinx’ as a gender-neutral reference to the people of Latin-American heritage. To not negate gendered experiences, we use Latino/Latina, or Chicano/a when acknowledging individuals or past research identifying with these gendered identities … Although both ‘Black’ and ‘Latinx’ are politicized categories, we recognize the reality of the identities are diverse, intersecting, and fluid.”
In an article titled “Over 1,200 ‘Educators for Palestine’ Sign Open Letter Demanding Ceasefire,” <a href="https://truthout.org/articles/over-a-thousand-educators-for-palestine-sign-open-letter-demanding-ceasefire/#:~:text=Hundreds%20of%20academics%20from%20universities,has%20killed%20more%20than%2011%2C000" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Truthout</a> gave a biased account of a statement signed by several university professors, including Sampson. The statement was crafted after the October 7 Hamas attacks against Israel. 

Truthout said, “Hundreds of academics from universities and institutions of higher learning from … across North America have signed on to a joint letter, calling on their governments to demand Israeli ceasefire in Gaza … The signers, calling themselves ‘Educators for Palestine,’ are Palestinian academics and their allies who denounce Israel’s genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.”

“We have paid careful attention to consistent invocations of children in public officials’ responses to and media portrayals of the attack in Israel on October 7, which took 1400 lives. We mourn this loss of life, and we are also struck by the ways that this concern for children does not extend to the unspeakable number of Palestinian children’s lives taken by Israeli state violence, harmed by apartheid rule, and traumatized by intergenerational experiences of settler colonial dispossession for over [75] years.”

<a href="https://search.asu.edu/profile/4399703" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shannon Portillo</a> is a Professor and the Director of the School of Public Affairs at Arizona State University. According to Portillo’s biography, “Her work helps scholars and practitioners understand how inequities are institutionalized in public organizations … [She also] served as co-chair of Kansas Governor Laura Kelly’s Commission on Racial Equity and Justice.”

Portillo’s <a href="https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=Kw7ABu8AAAAJ&amp;hl=en&amp;oi=ao" target="_blank" rel="noopener">published works</a> include topics such as “Social Equity,” “Law &amp; Society,” and “Street-Level Bureaucracy.” She co-authored a paper entitled “<a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1G6j6mAfv3ycBqEtPvz4qR70Tjk8GBjgH/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Advancing Social Equity in the Minnowbrook Tradition</a>,” which discussed the “goals of valuing social equity and using it as a guide in managing public programs.” 

In her work, Portillo refers to a meeting called Minnowbrook I that took place following the passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. According to the <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1G6j6mAfv3ycBqEtPvz4qR70Tjk8GBjgH/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Minnowbrook 50 Social Equity Manifesto</a>, “[A] group of public administration scholars met to reflect on the implications of the social and environmental circumstances for [their] discipline … [Their] call to action … focused on ways to intersect and integrate social equity in the research, teaching, and practice of public administration.”
In the <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1G6j6mAfv3ycBqEtPvz4qR70Tjk8GBjgH/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Minnowbrook paper,</a> Portillo et al. wrote:
“In 40 years since Minnowbrook I, the concern for social equity has grown to the point where it now occupies a firm place within the academy … However, despite its growth and general acceptance as a core area of research and concern, evidence of gross societal inequities in the United States and the global community abound.”
Portillo was featured in the <a href="https://news.ku.edu/news/article/2022/02/17/public-administration-should-consider-effects-whiteness-masculinity-well-representation" target="_blank" rel="noopener">KU News article</a> titled “Public administration should consider effects of whiteness, masculinity as well as presentation, researchers say,” where she offered her perspective on gender and racial discrimination in the industry.

Portillo states that during President Woodrow Wilson’s term, a push for segregation led to discrimination and the “normalization of white men in bureaucratic roles.” Any truth in this statement is neutralized by her contradictory claim that “[w]hite men have been in charge pretty much forever,” and, at the same time, “[w]e need more empirical evidence” to know whether white men in leadership have helped or harmed professional communities.

<a href="https://search.asu.edu/profile/4219914" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lydia HaRim Ahn</a> is an Assistant Professor in Counseling and Counseling Psychology at Arizona State University. According to her university profile, Ahn’s academic interests include the following:

“1) examining the detrimental effects of racism and oppression on marginalized communities with an emphasis on within group differences, 2) developmental protective and risk factors between racism and health outcomes with a focus on ethnic-racial socialization and parenting, and 3) enhancing positive psychological outcomes and change through psychotherapy, evidence-based videos, and prevention and intervention programming.” 
In February, Ahn and Thomas P. Le co-wrote an <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article</a> titled “Asian American Women’s Racial Dating Preferences: An Investigation of Internalized Racism, Resistance and Empowerment against Racism, and Desire for Status.” In the abstract for the article, the authors state their purpose for writing it: 
“To further understand racialized desire among this underrepresented population, the present study examined the extent to which three sociocultural factors (i.e., internalized racism, resistance and empowerment against racism, and desire for status) were associated with two attraction outcome variables (i.e., dating preferences, physical attraction) across four racial categories of men: Asian men, Black men, Latino men, and White men.” 
They claim the factors of “internalized racism, resistance and empowerment against racism, and desire for status” have caused Asian American women to have a “stronger dating preference toward White men and weaker dating preference and physical attraction to Asian men.”  

In a section of the article titled “Internalized Racism,” the authors address their research on male dating preferences based on race. Focusing on Asian American women, the authors state that the demographic faces “gendered racial microaggressions and model minority stereotypes that produce internalized racism.” They then focus on the differences between Asian and white men with regard to Asian women and dating: 
“Asian American women have reported a desire to date White men for the sake of economic security, as well as to assimilate into White American society, even if their White male partners engaged in racial fetishization of Asian women (Nemoto, <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9#ref-CR50" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2006</a>). This preference may promote stereotypes of Asian American men as undesirable and perpetually foreign (Wong &amp; McCullough, <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9#ref-CR69" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2021</a>) and Black and Latino men as inferior to white men (Cascalheira &amp; Smith, <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9#ref-CR4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2020</a>). Furthermore, Asian American women face gendered racism (Gamst et al., <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9#ref-CR15" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2023</a>), or experiences of discrimination that are based upon the intersections of their race and gender, which contributes to their disempowerment and negative self-worth within the United States (Ahn et al., <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9#ref-CR1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2022</a>).”
The authors conclude their study:
“Overall, our findings highlight how Asian American women’s romantic and intimate desires may be shaped by internalized racism, resistance and empowerment, and desire for social status. Asian American women face gendered racial microaggressions and model minority stereotypes that produce internalized racism (Ahn et al., <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9#ref-CR1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2022</a>; Juang et al., <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9#ref-CR26" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2018</a>; Wei et al., <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9#ref-CR68" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2008</a>).”

Lober also serves as the director of ASU’s Academy of Lactation Programs and the clinical research director at Banner University Medical Center–Phoenix.

According to The Fix, “Lober opened the one-hour moderated discussion by stating she ‘got into this space because the United States hates women and everything the female body does.’” 

The School Board Watchlist did not uncover the original audio from the event. However, <a href="https://www.liveaction.org/news/cannibalism-forced-breeding-professors-fearmonger-abortion/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Live Action </a>pointed out:
“Lober also argued that she is discouraging her children from having children, and said the decline in birth rates is a good thing—because the planet is overpopulated. Yet, ironically, the ASU <a href="https://asuevents.asu.edu/event/jenny-irishs-hatch-speculative-future-reproductive-rights?eventDate=2024-08-28&amp;id=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">events page</a> states that Lober’s ‘research is focused on establishing lactation and breastfeeding as a public health imperative’ and that she ‘is dedicated to working for a better world for families’...How, exactly does not create a better world for families or better health for children by encouraging abortion?”
Conservative lawyer and journalist, Jonathan Turley, <a href="https://jonathanturley.org/2024/09/01/the-united-states-hates-women-asu-event-offers-dystopian-anti-capitalist-vision-of-america/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">mentioned</a> Lober in an article titled “‘The United States Hates Women’: ASU Event Offer Dystopian, Anti-Capitalist Vision of America.” Reflecting on Lober’s resolution for a future America without abortion, Turley said she called for the audience “to help ‘dismantle capitalism’ and ‘elect a female president.’”

Since the event, Lober has not commented publicly on her role in the conversation with Irish. Based on mainstream media reactions, both professors are committed to espousing anti-American and anti-family values.

The KJZZ host asked Irish to comment on her “associations” with the King novel “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Carrie-Stephen-King/dp/1984898108/ref=asc_df_1984898108/?tag=hyprod-20&amp;linkCode=df0&amp;hvadid=692875362841&amp;hvpos=&amp;hvnetw=g&amp;hvrand=14364719003284224040&amp;hvpone=&amp;hvptwo=&amp;hvqmt=&amp;hvdev=c&amp;hvdvcmdl=&amp;hvlocint=&amp;hvlocphy=9061155&amp;hvtargid=pla-2281435178818&amp;psc=1&amp;mcid=d9f4354e402c38979d3d64dbfc2a5893&amp;hvocijid=14364719003284224040-1984898108-&amp;hvexpln=73" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Carrie</a>”—the story of a high school outcast with telekinetic powers who eventually murders her bullying classmates by setting the town on fire. 

Irish responded to the interviewer stating:
“‘Carrie’ is amazing in the fact that [it] was written 50 years ago, but there’s so much about it that feels pretty tragically contemporary. If Carrie White had had access to a decent sex ed class, the town of Chamberlain, Maine, would still be standing…[I]t’s not hard to think about that in the midst I feel of our current kind of sociopolitical moment, where there’s such an assault on bodily autonomy and considerations of the rights of people to define their own identity and their own bodies and their relationships to them.”

According to <a href="https://nupress.northwestern.edu/9780810146969/hatch/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Northwestern University Press</a>:
“The prose poems in Jenny Irish’s newest collection, Hatch, trace the consciousness of an artificial womb that must confront the role she has played in the continuation of the dying of the human species. This apocalyptic vision engages with the most pressing concerns of this contemporary sociopolitical moment: reproductive rights, climate crises, and mass extinction; gender and racial bias in healthcare technology…and the possibilities and dangers of artificial intelligence.”
In the following excerpt, Irish appears to describe an abortion from the artificial womb’s perspective.

He teaches courses focused on philosophy, morality, and religion. As a Christian in a secular institution, Dr. Anderson has been subjected to discrimination and exclusion by the college. 

On September 20, 2024, <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/christian-professors-intro-to-christianity-class-torpedoed-at-asu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The College Fix featured</a> Anderson in an article titled “Christian professor’s ‘Intro to Christianity’ class torpedoed at ASU.” Quoting Dr. Anderson’s phone interview, the Fix wrote:
“If a class does not have a general education designation, most students won’t enroll and his college will be hesitant to offer it because it won’t attract many students.” 
Dr. Anderson’s Intro to Christianity class was canceled because he said ASU “[doesn’t] want it taught from a Christian perspective.” He provided The Fix with a member from ASU <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/juliasarreal" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Associate Professor Julia Sarreal</a> who said, “The syllabus reflects a Christian way of teaching Christianity, which is to say the course does not adequately provide the kids of critical, reflective, disciplinary skills that students need.”

In an <a href="https://www.tpusa.com/live/asus-dr-owen-anderson-warns-of-new-policies-threatening-academic-freedom">interview with Turning Point USA</a>, Dr. Anderson stated that he, and his colleagues, were asked to “decolonize” their course syllabi. He described decolonization according to ASU’s definition:
“Decolonize means you become aware of any Western, and especially Christian, influences in your syllabus, and you replace those with what they would call ‘Indigenous people’s perspectives.’ Decolonizing comes out of a communist philosophy…It’s a political philosophy that’s being adopted by ASU to push on the students.”
During the interview, Dr. Anderson also said since he teaches world religions and philosophies, he believes his courses are culturally diverse, therefore, his lesson plans don’t need to be revised.

On March 19, 2024, Dr. Anderson <a href="https://www.goldwaterinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Complaint-Final-with-exhibits.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">filed a complaint</a> with the Arizona Board of Regents after ASU mandated diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) training for faculty and staff members. In <a href="https://www.goldwaterinstitute.org/case/dismantling-asus-discriminatory-dei-regime/">partnership</a> with the Goldwater Institute, he brought the lawsuit to prohibit the college from using race, ethnicity, or sex—which goes against state and federal laws—to hire and retain employees.

In a June 18 <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/2024/06/my-university-required-dei-training-im-suing/">opinion editorial</a> titled “My University Required DEI Training. I’m Suing,” Dr. Anderson wrote:
“I’m in favor of each of those terms: Diversity…equity…and inclusion…are undoubtedly good things. But when I began the mandatory training, I found something troubling: It engaged in race blaming, warning of the supposed ‘problem’ of whiteness and encouraged judgment of people based on their skin color. I could not, in good conscience, continue such racist training.”
Dr. Anderson <a href="https://www.tpusa.com/live/asus-dr-owen-anderson-warns-of-new-policies-threatening-academic-freedom" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> TPUSA that he believes these cultural shifts occurred as a result of ASU’s evolving definition of “multiculturalism,” which he also said, “caused respect for Christians to deteriorate on campus.”

Dr. Anderson presents a balanced perspective in the classroom and encourages students to think objectively. He upholds constitutional, conservative values despite pressure and ostracism from fellow ASU faculty and administrators. 
The Professor Watchlist considers Dr. Anderson a good professor. 
Published - September 23, 2024
On January 27, Professor Anderson <a href="https://crossexamined.org/a-guide-to-choosing-a-humanities-professor/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a> “A Guide To Choosing a Humanities Professor” for Cross Examined. 

In the guide, Anderson listed a series of qualities and defects found in humanities professors throughout the U.S. that should be sought after or avoided by students. Overall, he says students should pursue a degree that prepares them for life and teaches them to be wise.

Anderson wrote:
“Many professors in these classes don’t know how to teach what is good or what it means to be wise.”
He then explains the purpose of a humanities degree:
“But what about a degree in the humanities? How does it prepare you for life? To do so it would have to teach you what is good for a human life.”
According to Anderson, a humanities degree encourages students to learn and gain wisdom and reach the highest good in life:
“Wisdom is understanding the highest good and knowing how to live your life in a way that helps you reach the good. What is good for a person depends on human nature…The highest good is the ultimate goal we aim for in everything we do. We might have smaller goals along the way, but those are just steps toward something greater. ”
For Anderson, seeking the knowledge of God is an endeavor to reach the highest good that should be embedded into a humanities program:
“Most philosophers agree that the ultimate good for a human is to know God. Thinkers like Plato, Aristotle, Augustine, Aquinas, Descartes, and Locke all point to this idea in their work, even if they describe it in different ways. Even philosophers who don’t use the word “God” often still believe that knowing the highest reality—whatever they call it—is what makes life truly good for a person.”
Anderson cautions students to avoid skeptics and nihilists, ask professors what they believe is good, and find a professor who knows what is good. 

“These three steps will help you determine if a professor is wise and capable of teaching you wisdom,” Anderson wrote.

Even if professors who fit Anderson’s criteria cannot be found, the professor concluded with the following consolation:

“The good news is that you can still graduate without taking their classes.”

After the college rejected his class, it was revealed that Sarreal objected to the premise of Christianity being taught on campus. The Fix recorded her comments:

“The <a href="https://www.scribd.com/document/771107095/REL-270-Introduction-to-Christianity-ASU-Dr-Owen-Anderson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">syllabus</a> reflects a Christian way of teaching Christianity, which is to say the course does not adequately provide the kinds of critical, reflective, disciplinary skills that students need to have in order to study religious traditions.”

“Furthermore, the focus on ‘Western Civilization’ is problematic. It is true that Christianity has been ‘influential’ in European history, it has also been deeply influential elsewhere in ways that are completely ignored in the syllabus.” 

Based on the feedback Sarreal received from Dr. Anderson, it appears she either did not read the syllabus or chose to interpret the lesson plans through an objectionable lens. Sarreal specifically described one of the modules as being “focused on ‘the’ biblical worldview” and called this a “fraught oversimplification.”

<a href="https://search.asu.edu/profile/3924315" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ruben Espinosa</a> is Professor of English and Director of the Arizona Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies at Arizona State University (ASU). According to his faculty profile, Espinosa’s studies are chiefly focused on the work of William Shakespeare. 

On September 16, 2024, ASU’s <a href="https://humanitiesinstitute.asu.edu/events" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Humanities Institute</a> hosted a panel with Espinosa and Professor Curtis Austin on cultural appropriation concerning the plays of Shakespeare. The <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/arizona-state-u-scholars-condemn-white-ownership-of-shakespeare/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">event</a> is described by the university as such: 
“What constitutes cultural appropriation, and when is it unethical? Should we adopt voices beyond our own, and if so then what factors must be weighed beforehand?”
“Pressing on hard research questions may lead to ethical dilemmas of how to speak in relation to another. This panel will discuss what it means to think, research, and write across cultures and ways of being.”  
In an audio recording of a l<a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/arizona-state-u-scholars-condemn-white-ownership-of-shakespeare/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ecture</a> obtained by the College Fix, Espinosa connected the alleged “white exceptionalism” of January 6 rioters U.S. Capitol protesters to Shakespeare. These two are both claimed to be symbols of “white exceptionalism” and “racial hierarchy.” The professor stated:

“It kind of has this origin in anti-immigrant sentiments, right, all the way to January 6th, when we think about that white exceptionalism, and this notion of a kind of white ownership of Shakespeare.”
Espinosa believes that “Shakespeare is the epitome or the marker of white exceptionalism” and sits at the top of the “racial hierarchy.” Thereby, he attached the poet to “whiteness” exclusively over humanity independent of race. 

In 2021, Espinosa published a book titled “<a href="https://www.routledge.com/Shakespeare-on-the-Shades-of-Racism/Espinosa/p/book/9780367183004">Shakespeare on the Shades of Racism</a>.” The publisher’s description states:
“Shakespeare on the Shades of Racism examines Shakespeare in relation to ongoing conversations that interrogate the vulnerability of Black and brown people amid oppressive structures that aim to devalue their worth. By focusing on the way these individuals are racialized, politicized, policed, and often violated in our contemporary world, it casts light on dimensions of Shakespeare’s work that afford us a better understanding of our ethical responsibilities in the face of such brutal racism.”

<a href="https://search.asu.edu/profile/1256527" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lela Rankin</a> is a professor in the Arizona State University School of Social Work, Tucson. According to her faculty profile, “Rankin’s scholarship focuses on preventive interventions for children and families, particularly in vulnerable populations.”

According to a January report from the <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/maternal-instinct-is-socially-constructed-myth-arizona-state-u-professor-says/">College Fix</a>, in a lecture Rankin claimed that the maternal instinct is a fabricated myth with no biological reality. 

“[T]his idea of this maternal instinct, it struck me as potentially problematic because it really places the primacy on biological mothers, and then it relegates other people…to essentially secondary babysitters or assistants, right?”

The claims in this lecture are based on  research that can be found in a <a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0277953624006257#:~:text=We%20did%20not%20find%20empirical,knowledge%20strengthened%20attachment%20over%20time." target="_blank" rel="noopener">study</a> Rankin co-authored with Haley G. Krouskop b, Maryanne L. Fisher.

In the study, titled “Mother-infant attachment from the perspective of young mothers: Does the data support a maternal instinct?,” the authors claim the following:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“We did not find empirical evidence to support an innate maternal instinct.•</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Young mothers' qualitative experiences with attachment at birth were diverse.</li>

 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Mothers developed an “instinct” through repetitive interactions with their infant.”</li>
</ul>
Further addressing the above points, the authors find that no maternal instinct is inherent during the processes of pregnancy and childbirth; rather, a mother infant connection is developed after birth during childcare:

“Despite diverse experiences with felt attachment at birth, all mothers perceived that the mother-infant connection was influenced by contextual factors after birth and was strengthened over time with more care-taking experience. ​​This suggests that mothers likely developed a ‘maternal instinct’ through repetitive interaction with their infant as the primary caretaker rather than a genetic predisposition to be superior nurturing parents.”

In the article’s conclusion, the authors maintain that caregiving and nurturing behaviors are a necessity and should be present during pregnancy or right at childbirth. They cite British psychoanalyst John Bowlby’s concept of attachment theory, among other theorists, in an attempt to backup their claims:  

“If mothers possess an innate instinct for the purposes of bonding, breastfeeding, and other caregiving behaviors… then arguably this instinct should be felt during pregnancy or at childbirth.”

<a href="https://search.asu.edu/profile/970381" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sally L. Kitch</a> is a professor in the School of Social Transformation at Arizona State University. 

According to her faculty profile, Kitch “specializes in three major research and teaching areas: 
<ol>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“[F]eminist theory, including the intellectual history of gender and racial ideology in the U.S. and other countries and the impact of gender representation in visual and narrative culture on the lived realities of diverse women's lives; </li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">feminist epistemology, the epistemology of the humanities, and theories of interdisciplinary knowledge production; </li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">environmental humanities, including the importance of the humanities to sustainability science and the relationship of sustainability to gender and racial ideologies.”  </li>
</ol>
In the aftermath of the US Supreme Court’s 2022 repeal of Roe v. Wade through the <a href="https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf/19-1392_6j37.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dobbs Decision</a>, Kitch wrote an <a href="https://www.researchgate.net/publication/369989167_Reproductive_Rights_and_Ecofeminism" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article</a> titled “Reproductive Rights and Ecofeminism.” 

Ecofeminism is <a href="https://hcwc.college.harvard.edu/education/workshops/ecofeminism#:~:text=Ecofeminism%2C%20also%20called%20ecological%20feminism,merits%20of%20intuition%20and%20collaboration." target="_blank" rel="noopener">defined</a> as a practice using “the basic feminist tenets of gender equality, a revaluing of non-patriarchal or nonlinear structures, and a view of the world that respects organic processes, holistic connections, and the merits of intuition and collaboration.”

In the article, Kitch aligns herself with ecofeminism, and argues that the “Dobbs decision invites an ecofeminist interpretation of its relationship to the destruction of our planet and to the biopolitics of environmental sustainability.”

The professor claimed that there is a connection between the bodies of women, enslaved, disabled, and racialized people, along with animals and nature as “terrains” of conquest: 

“Ecofeminism in the 2020s links those forces by articulating ‘a clear connection between the treatment of the bodies of women, the enslaved, the disabled, and the racialized, and the treatment of lands, animals, and plants: they are all naturalized terrains of experimentation or conquest.”

The term “ecofascist” is used in the article a few times. Kitch’s cited <a href="https://www.sierraclub.org/sierra/4-november-december/feature/eco-fascism-uncovered-el-paso-texas">source</a> defines the term as “violence in the name of environmental conservation.” Kitch further writes on “ecofascists”:

“Many ecofascists in the U.S. oppose action to reduce global warming by eliminating carbon emissions as an affront to white patriarchal/capitalist/colonial power, which allegedly emanates from industrial might and its key driver, fossil fuels (Hernandez-Simmons 2022; Westervelt 2022).”

Kitch is still listed on the ASU faculty site as an active professor, yet the <a href="https://search.asu.edu/profile/970381" target="_blank" rel="noopener">last course</a> she taught was a practicum in 2022.

According to her university profile, her research is “ecologically and speculatively oriented” and her writing focuses on “living, dying, and dreaming, in an animal body.” Marovich is also the author of <a href="https://cup.columbia.edu/book/sister-death/9780231208376" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sister Death: Political Theologies for Living and Dying</a>.

She begins by quoting James Baldwin, who claims, “White Americans do not believe in death. And this is why the darkness of my skin so intimidates them.”
Marovich argues:
“White Americans have, we could say, inherited their denial of the value of Black life (and their disbelief in White death) from the Christian tradition that so many White Americans have turned to (and continue to turn to) for guidance and strength.” 
She says that Christianity views death as “not only an evil enemy of God but the ultimate fate of Christianity’s foes.” Marovich takes this further, saying: “These enemies of God are more killable than other Christians, precisely because they were never promised eternal life to begin with. Their lives don’t matter and their deaths are inevitable.”
Marovich adds:
“One could make the argument (as I do in Sister Death) that it isn’t just White Americans who lack a belief in death &#8211; who seem unconvinced that death is a fact that applies to them. Rather, in the history of Christianity, we can see an ancient trail of death denial.
“This Christian view discussed earlier, about whose lives matter eternally and whose lives don’t, and about who can be killed with impunity and who can’t, may be written into White supremacist views about whose lives matter &#8211; and whose don’t.” 
She concludes by saying:
“Is it really such a leap to suggest that death-denial in Christian thought might animate and enable the exceptionalism of a contemporary White supremacy that denies the value of Black life? I certainly don’t think so.”

<a href="https://www.uh.edu/class/ccs/people/nicholas-de-genova/">Dr. Nicholas De Genova</a> is a professor and the Chair of the Department of Comparative Cultural Studies at the University of Houston. His university biography describes him as a scholar of migration, borders, citizenship, labor, critical race, postcolonial, and ethnic studies. Dr. De Genova is an ardent advocate for abolishing national borders and has called for the death of American soldiers.
In an interview for the <a href="https://lnu.se/en/research/searchresearch/linnaeus-university-centre-for-concurrences-in-colonial-and-postcolonial-studies/">Centre for Concurrences in Colonial and Postcolonial Studies</a>, Dr. De Genova <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkF0I1Z9eGo">describes his work in postcolonial studies</a> as taking the free movement of people across borders as a “natural element of the human condition.&#8221; At one point in the interview, Dr. De Genova implies that national borders should be abolished.
&nbsp;

&nbsp;
Continuing, Dr. De Genova states that <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkF0I1Z9eGo">national borders are the most violent divisions that humanity has constructed</a>.
&nbsp;

&nbsp;
Throughout his work, Dr. De Genova claims that borders are used to elicit racial strife. In a piece written for the Journal of the American Anthropological Association, Dr. De Genova alleges there are <a href="http://www.americananthropologist.org/2020/03/23/everything-is-permitted-trump-white-supremacy-fascism/">parallels between Trump’s policies on the US-Mexico border and a “brutal and bellicose racial nativism” of conservative support for restrictive immigration policies. </a>
In the same paper, Dr. De Genova describes conservatives as fascists who are fomenting a racial civil war against people of color and illegal immigrants through the enforcement of immigration laws. He states:
“We must interrogate the synergies between, on the one hand, the variety of ways that Trump’s supporters are induced to endorse or emulate this brutal and bellicose racial nativism and, on the other hand, the outright cruelty and sadism, of the Trump administration’s border-enforcement tactics and the racist violence that they have institutionalized.” 
Dr. De Genova describes the United States as a nation that embodies white nationalism. Quoting author Wahneema Lubiano, Dr. De Genova states that <a href="http://www.americananthropologist.org/2020/03/23/everything-is-permitted-trump-white-supremacy-fascism/">American history has always “been some form” of white nationalism</a>.

According to <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article?id=20506" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Campus Reform</a>, Madera and a few other educators published an article, titled: “<a href="https://www.chronicle.com/article/promotion-rejected-your-record-may-not-be-the-problem" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Promotion Rejected? Your Record May Not Be the Problem</a>.” The article was published by the <a href="https://www.chronicle.com/article/promotion-rejected-your-record-may-not-be-the-problem" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chronicle of Higher Education</a>, also known as “The Chronicle.” Madera and his co-authors elaborate on a study of fairness and bias in tenure and promotion which “suggests that some candidates are spurned for reasons beyond their control.” The study, “<a href="https://uh.edu/class/psychology/promotionandtenurestudy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fairness and Bias in Promotion and Tenure</a>,” is being conducted through the University of Houston with multiple educators and faculty members, including Madera. The website’s mission statement is to “Determine structural barriers around promotion and tenure limiting the advancement of minority faculty and ultimately the inclusion of all demographic groups in Science.”

The authors of this article argue, “People of color, especially women of color, are the most unlikely to receive promotions or get onboarded… [A]s a woman of color in an otherwise all-white or primarily white department, and particularly in a department that is also male dominated, you may have been at a disadvantage at the outset in terms of fit…”

Rutgers University

<a href="https://comminfo.rutgers.edu/kumar-deepa" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Deepa Kumar</a> is a Professor of Journalism and Media Studies at Rutgers University. According to her faculty profile, Kumar is “internationally recognized as a leading scholar of race and anti-Muslim racism.” As the president of Rutgers <a href="https://rutgersaaup.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AAUP-AFT academic union</a>, she also “led the transition to an intersectional approach of <a href="https://www.tempestmag.org/2023/04/intersectional-organizing-wall-to-wall-at-rutgers/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">unionism</a>, centering on race and gender equity.”

PROTESTS

In April 2023, Kumar participated in an interview with <a href="https://tempestmag.org/2023/04/intersectional-organizing-wall-to-wall-at-rutgers/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tempest Magazine</a>, in which she discussed the history of faculty strikes led by the AAUP-AFT academic union. Kumar believes adjunct professors are entitled to the same benefits as full-time and tenured faculty. 

The article states: “The Rutgers AAUP-AFT had worked over a period of years to build a ‘wall-to-wall,’ industrial-style, intersectional union … the union also made race and gender justice central to its organizing and negotiations as a way to bridge divides and to support a diverse student body.”

When asked, “Can you speak to the wall-to-wall organizing strategy and its lessons, methods, and challenges”, Kumar responded:
“The university is a very hierarchical space where status and stature are given to certain people and denied to others. The most senior professors are at the top of this hierarchy of academic workers, whereas adjunct faculty are largely invisible … Beyond this are of course the workers who clean our campuses, feed our students, do administrative work, deliver packages and do various other tasks.”
She further discussed how the state governor pressured the union to suspend the strike and the union’s vote to take a $70 framework to avoid an injunction, which would force adjunct faculty back to return to work.

RACIAL IDEOLOGY; ANTI-LAW ENFORCEMENT; TERROR SUPPORTER

Kumar is the author of “<a href="https://www.versobooks.com/products/955-islamophobia-and-the-politics-of-empire" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Islamophobia and the Politics of Empire</a>,” in which she discussed the supposed rise of anti-Muslim racism following the 9/11 <a href="https://www.911memorial.org/911-faqs" target="_blank" rel="noopener">World Trade Center</a> terrorist attacks. Her perspective of the US government’s response suggests that using surveillance and other methods of securing American civilians were acts of racial prejudice against Arabs and Muslims.

In the book introduction, Kumar wrote:
“Even before I began my study of the history of Islam, of Muslim-majority countries, and of the relationship between East and West, I knew instinctively that the Islamophobic rhetoric that passed as common sense in the United States was dead wrong … I am grateful to the dozens of Middle East studies scholars and others before me who have studied the ‘Muslim world’ for advancing my knowledge of this subject and helping me to expose the underlying racism inherent in the logic of Islamophobia.”
By the end of the novel, Kumar claimed, “We also saw that  the image of the menacing ‘Muslim threat’ [had] been mobilized largely by ruling elites to serve a political agenda, whether the domination of Europe by the papacy in the eleventh century or US expansionism today.”

Kumar once posted on Twitter that she believed the US government was more brutal than the ISIS terrorist regime.

Updated - July 2024

<a href="https://jasbirkpuar.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jasbir Puar</a> is the Professor and Graduate Director of Women’s and Gender Studies at Rutgers University.

Puar is an editor and author of several publications including a book entitled “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Right-Maim-Debility-Disability-Otherwise/dp/0822369184/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3CJIPSGV1XZ1X&amp;keywords=Jasbir+Puar%2C+The+Right+to+Maim%3A+Debility%2C+Capacity%2C+Disability&amp;qid=1693330890&amp;sprefix=%2Caps%2C142&amp;sr=8-1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Right to Maim: Debility, Capacity, Disability</a>.” According to the publisher, the text  is “an interrogation of Israel’s policies toward Palestine, in which [Puar] outlines how Israel brings Palestinians into biopolitical being by designating them available for injury.” 

The publisher also wrote, “Supplementing its right to kill with what Puar calls the right to maim, the Israeli state relies on liberal frameworks of disability to obscure and enable the mass debilitation of Palestinian bodies.”

Rutgers congratulated Puar on the book, despite its racist and anti-semitic themes. In a <a href="https://womens-studies.rutgers.edu/news-events/news/1216-congratulations-professor-jasbir-puar" target="_blank" rel="noopener">press release</a> from the Department of Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies, the university awarded Puar with the National Women’s Studies Association 2018 Alison Piepmeier Book Prize for “The Right to Maim.” The publication says:

“Weaving disability studies together with queer theory, transgender studies, biopolitics and assemblage theory, Puar moves from the racialized constitution of transgender through the Israeli occupation of Palestine, focusing on what it means to manipulate bodies on the population level..”

Puar’s anti-semitic writing drew national attention after <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/satyellarson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Princeton Professor Satyel Larson</a> featured “The Right to Maim” on a course reading list.

In response to Puar’s book, the<a href="https://www.jns.org/column/antisemitism/23/8/22/312418/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Jewish News Syndicate</a> said, “There are no statistics gathered by UNICEF, the World Health Organization, or even the virulently antisemitic Palestinian Authority to substantiate [Puar’s] claims, nor is there any medical evidence.”

The Syndicate also said, “Lamentably, Puar’s anti-semitic diatribe is just one of many examples of college-level faculty and administration espousing hate against Jewish students and the Jewish state.”

In her <a href="https://www.dukeupress.edu/terrorist-assemblages-tenth-anniversary-edition" target="_blank" rel="noopener">book</a> “Terrorist Assemblages: Homonationalism in Queer Times,” Puar “argues that configurations of sexuality, race, gender, nation, class and ethnicity are realigning in relation to contemporary forces of securitization, counterterrorism and nationalism.” 

Puar <a href="https://www.dukeupress.edu/Assets/PubMaterials/978-0-8223-7150-2_601.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote in the introduction</a>: 

“In Terrorist Assemblages, my primary interest is in the process of the management of queer life at the expense of sexually and racially perverse death in relation to the contemporary politics of securitization, Orientalism, terrorism, torture and the articulation of Muslim, Arab, Sigh and South Asian sexualities.”
