<a href="https://liberalarts.temple.edu/about/faculty-staff/jennifer-pollitt" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jennifer Pollitt</a> is an Assistant Professor and the Assistant Director of Gender, Sexuality and Women’s Studies at Temple University. Her expertise includes “Sexuality and Gender Studies,” “Sexuality Education,” and “LGBTQIA Civil Rights.” She also organizes #MeToo conferences for academic and professional attendees. 
In May 2023, Pollitt was featured in a <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/temple-university-has-a-porn-studies-class-2023-5" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Business Insider article</a> titled “Temple University now offers porn-studies course. In the class, students talk about things they ‘don’t even discuss with their closest friends.’” Pollitt told the Insider that her course “kept having a longer wait list” of students who were interested in the topic. She ultimately concluded that people “really want to talk about [sex].” 
The Insider wrote:
“[Pollitt] said her goal in creating the course was to use digital pornography as a jumping-off point to talk about race, ability, and the patriarchy. Pollitt added that she wanted to teach students how to get away with binary thinking: viewing porn as simply right versus wrong, good versus bad.”
Pollitt also said the discussion in her course venture into “racialized porn,” “disability porn,” and “trans porn.” However, in the past, she told <a href="https://19thnews.org/2023/07/porn-studies-temple-university-professor-jennifer-pollitt/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">19th News</a> that her course would not include watching pornographic movies and “[u]npacking the stigma about porn and sexuality is one of her goals as an educator.” 
The screenshot below shows a list of hypersexualized classes primarily taught by Pollitt.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3804" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Screenshot-2024-09-17-at-2.20.38 PM.png" alt="" width="581" height="588" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Screenshot-2024-09-17-at-2.20.38 PM.png 581w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Screenshot-2024-09-17-at-2.20.38 PM-296x300.png 296w" sizes="(max-width: 581px) 100vw, 581px" />
The university publication <a href="https://news.temple.edu/news/2023-09-14/what-you-need-know-watching-marvels" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Temple Now</a> included Pollitt’s comments on a film called The Marvel, which features an all-female main cast. Pollitt was asked to share her thoughts on Nia DaCosta (a black woman) who directed the movie. Pollitt was quoted saying:
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-3805" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/pwl-1024x791.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="494" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/pwl-1024x791.jpg 1024w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/pwl-300x232.jpg 300w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/pwl-768x594.jpg 768w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/pwl-1200x927.jpg 1200w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/pwl.jpg 1299w" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" />
In the article, Pollitt also took offense to the phrase “going all-female,” declaring that the film “challenges” views on women as superheroes and “reinforces that women are just as strong, brave, capable and resilient as men.” Apparently, Pollitt is unfamiliar with historic female heroines and lead characters such as Catwoman (1940), Wonder Woman (1941), Batwoman (1956), The Bionic Woman (1976), and Elasti-Girl/Woman (DC Comics, 1963; Disney, 2004).
When asked by <a href="https://19thnews.org/2023/07/porn-studies-temple-university-professor-jennifer-pollitt/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">19th News</a> about the purpose of her salacious class, Pollitt admitted that “porn studies” hasn’t been taken seriously in the past because the topic “was considered smut and a waste of time.” Considering the innumerable marriages and <a href="https://extension.usu.edu/relationships/research/effects-of-pornography-on-relationships" target="_blank" rel="noopener">relationships destroyed by pornography</a>—as well as <a href="https://www.theasservoproject.org/pornography-and-human-trafficking/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the industry’s proven ties</a> to adult and child sex trafficking—Pollitt is doing a disservice to the education community at Temple University, if not the entire realm of academics.

Temple University

<a href="https://sites.temple.edu/josephschwartz/">Dr. Joseph Schwartz</a>, a Professor of Political Science at Temple University, took over a College Republican discussion with a representative from Pennsylvania Right to Work Defense and Education Foundation. He and some of his students insulted the speaker and accused him of racism. Schwartz then exclaimed, “Oh come on, f*****g a--. I believe in the religion of foul language.”

<a href="https://www.temple.edu/about/faculty-staff/sara-goldrick-rab-tug64840">Dr. Sara Goldrick-Rab</a>, a Professor of Policy, Organizational, and Leadership Studies at Temple University, took to Twitter to compare Republican governor Scott Walker to Hitler. Her tweet said “My grandfather, a psychologist, just walked me through the similarities between Walker and Hitler. There are so many- it’s terrifying”. According to Campus Reform, the tweets followed a contentious battle over budgets and policy changes for the University of Wisconsin system.

On the day after the death of O.J. Simpson, Hill posted a YouTube <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zgKqiBCGIL0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">stream</a> titled, “O.J. Simpson is DEAD!!! Do NOT Make Him A Hero or a Martyr.” In the stream, Hill repeatedly asserts that Simpson is a “monster” and not a figure worth celebrating for the black community. He <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/04/12/opinion/left-is-still-defending-oj-because-race-is-more-important-to-them-than-justice/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">maintains Simpson was guilty</a> of the crimes he committed even though his "acquittal was the 'correct and necessary result of a racist criminal legal system.'"

This stream came after Hill posted his initial reaction to Simpson’s death, according to <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/cuny-professor-marc-lamont-hill-says-cold-blooded-killer-oj-simpsons-acquittal-was-correct-and-necessary-to-fight-racism" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Post Millennial</a>:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
O.J. Simpson was an abusive liar who abandoned his community long before he killed two people in cold blood. His acquittal for murder was the correct and necessary result of a racist criminal legal system. But he’s still a monster, not a martyr.
— Marc Lamont Hill (@marclamonthill) <a href="https://twitter.com/marclamonthill/status/1778461905268412472?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 11, 2024</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Before addressing those crimes, Hill condemned Simpson for his lifestyle choices, which, he claims, were very much a dismissal and abandonment of the black community and culture: 
“O.J. Simpson is not a person who is our kind. O.J. Simpson became famous, moved to L.A. …  and created a social network that was filled with white people. He created a white reality.”
Hill stated that the white Ford Bronco that Al Cowlings (Simpson’s friend) and Simpson attempted to escape the police with was not the first time Simpson used a white vehicle to “escape a black reality.” Hill stated that Simpson “wanted no parts of the black community.”

Hill alleges that L.A. Detective Mark Fuhrman—who investigated the crime scene at Simpson’s house in the aftermath of the murders of Nicole Brown, Simpson’s ex-wife, and her friend Ron Goldman—is solely to blame for the acquittal of Simpson. 
“O.J. Simpson should not have been found guilty because there was a police officer [Fuhrman], a racist police officer … who at the end of the day lied about using the n-word. He had a history of racist acts. Mark Fuhrman is the reason why O.J. Simpson spent the next few decades as a free man living in a white world. I’m not saying that O.J. Simpson should’ve gone to prison. I’m saying that O.J. Simpson was guilty of the crime.” 
Hill claims the Simpson case in 1994 and its outcome was a referendum on the allegedly racist U.S. justice system. He says Simpson was found innocent due to “reasonable doubt because of a racist cop.” However, he defends Johnnie Cochrane, Simpson’s attorney during that trial, and claims he and Simpson are two different species. Cochrane was a civil rights leader who fought the “racist” system by using O.J.’s case, according to Hill. 

Towards the end of the stream, Hill asserts the following.
“O.J. is a reminder that the world is racist, that the system is racist, that the cops are racist …  O.J. forced y’all to deal with white supremacy [and] structural racism.”
Of the response to Simpson’s death, Hill claims it will be celebratory for white people in the fashion of certain responses to the deaths of dictators or terrorists:
 “White people will act like it’s the fall of Sadaam Hussein.”

<a href="https://education.temple.edu/about/faculty-staff/marc-lamont-hill-marchill">Marc Lamont Hill</a> is a Professor of Media Studies and Production and of Policy, Organizational, and Leadership Studies at Temple University.

In 2018, Marc Lamont Hill was <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2018/11/29/media/marc-lamont-hill-cnn/index.html">fired</a> by CNN for his anti-Israel remarks. Speaking before the UN, Hill called for a "free Palestine from the river to the sea, " which are sentiments widely understood as a call for the elimination of the state of Israel and replacement with an Arab state from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea.

Hill was previously under fire for his relationship with the open anti-Semite and Nation of Islam leader, Louis Farrakhan. He has repeatedly <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/dec/18/marc-lamont-hill-stands-brother-farrakhan-we-shoul/">refused</a> to condemn Farrakhan, stating, 

“Minister <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/louis-farrakhan/">Farrakhan</a> is my brother. The idea that we have to renounce him, denounce him, throw him away … in the black tradition, I ain’t got the luxury of throwing people who love us away. I ain’t got the luxury of taking people who come out of traditions that have saved us and cleaned us and throw them away. We can’t do that. We shouldn’t do that.”

<a href="https://law.temple.edu/contact/rachel-rebouche/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rachel Rebouché</a> is the Dean of Temple University Beasley School of Law, the James E. Beasley Professor of Law, and a Faculty Fellow at Temple’s Center for Public Health Law Research. According to her university biography, Rebouché is a leading scholar in reproductive health law and family law.

Rebouché co-authored an opinion piece for The New York Times titled, <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2022/06/23/opinion/abortion-pills-online-roe-v-wade.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Abortion Pills Will Change a Post-Roe World.”</a> The article praises abortion pills, claiming that “people who live in anti-abortion states and can’t travel will still be able to obtain safe abortions, often without the direct involvement of a medical provider and within the privacy of their homes.”

However, according to a report put together by Live Action and the Association of Pro-Life Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the <a href="https://www.liveaction.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/ExecSummary.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">abortion pill poses a four-times higher risk of complication</a> than surgical abortion in the first trimester. Since the FDA approved the pills, there have been 24 reported maternal deaths and over 4,000 reports of adverse events including hemorrhage, excruciating abdominal pain, and severe life-threatening infections.

Rebouché and her co-authors ignore these statistics and claim, with the fall of Roe v. Wade, the “anti-abortion movement is likely to continue to deploy another longstanding tactic: deceiving people.” They say crisis pregnancy centers “often imply that they provide abortions when their mission is actually to block people from getting abortions.”
“Expect anti-abortion activists to set up websites pretending to sell abortion pills or even selling fake abortion pills.” 
Lastly, Rebouché et al. advocate for social media companies and search companies like Google to treat abortion pill misinformation like Covid-19 misinformation. They write:
“These companies created policies that have tried to de-emphasize, remove or add disclaimers to Covid-19 misinformation. Given the immense complexity of the post-Roe legal and abortion access landscape, companies could enact similar policies governing abortion misinformation and websites that aim to deceive and entrap pregnant people.”

<a href="https://liberalarts.temple.edu/about/faculty-staff/timothy-welbeck" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Timothy Welbeck</a> is an Assistant Professor of Instruction in the Department of Africology and African American Studies and Director of the Center for Anti-Racism, both at Temple University. According to his university profile, Welbeck’s research includes “contemporary issues of racial identity in America [and] the intersection of racial classifications and the law in the American context.”

At the <a href="https://news.temple.edu/news/2022-11-30/temple-university-s-center-anti-racism-holds-grand-opening" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Center’s grand opening ceremony</a> in November 2022, Welbeck said the goal is to be a “hub of collaboration across the university as we seek to create scholarship that will shape the course of the discourse and help us better understand what racism is, how it reveals itself and how we can better fight against it.”

Welbeck further discussed his vision for the center in an interview with <a href="https://news.temple.edu/news/2021-10-05/unravelling-systemic-oppression-through-scholarship-advocacy-and-education" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Temple Now</a>. He said the Center “will examine the ways racism finds its way into systems and structures, like housing, the criminal justice system, healthcare, environmental concerns, city planning, etc.” He continues, “We’ll begin targeting our efforts and focus on various issues within the U.S. and specifically the North Philadelphia community.”

Welbeck has been outspoken about his <a href="https://news.temple.edu/news/2022-06-15/temple-experts-remain-committed-anti-racism-work-ahead-juneteenth-2022" target="_blank" rel="noopener">support for critical race theory</a>, accusing those who are against it of trying to “keep productive conversations about race out of American classrooms.” He stated:
“It’s a very coordinated, deliberate campaign that’s funded and organized around trying to disarm any type of assessment of racial inequity in the United States, which is why if you look at some of the legislation from the 26 states that said to have banned critical race theory, they’re not actually banning critical race theory, but they’re banning terms like diversity, equity and inclusion.” 
After the U.S. Supreme Court overturned affirmative action in June 2023, Welbeck participated in a panel discussion about the impact of the Court’s decision. Welbeck told <a href="https://www.axios.com/local/philadelphia/2023/06/30/affirmative-action-supreme-court-meaning-philadlephia" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Axios</a> that students of color are not on an equal playing field with their white counterparts and “Schools cannot consider trying to undo centuries of harm and racialized segregation.” Welbeck is quoted in a <a href="https://news.temple.edu/2023-07-19/temple-experts-weigh-supreme-court-s-affirmative-action-decision" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Temple Now</a> article, saying:
“Historically, Black people were denied entry into every form of society like housing, medicine and education. They have racial impacts and disparities linked to this broader history that should be considered.” 
“We need the ability to target the centuries of exclusion of Black people in America and to not be afraid to talk about the actual problem itself. There was unique harm targeted at specific racial groups, so we need specific remedies to address it and to give them time to work.”

<a href="https://liberalarts.temple.edu/academics/faculty/fogg-davis-heath" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Heath Fogg Davis</a> is a Professor of Political Science at Temple University. 

According to Davis’ <a href="https://heathfoggdavis.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">website</a>, the professor studies “discrimination and identity formation with the goal of puzzling out their complicated workings, while also highlighting the many organizations and individuals fighting for a better, more equitable world.”

Aside from teaching, Davis works “with companies and organizations to help them imagine, design, and achieve their diversity and inclusion goals.”

In a 2017 <a href="https://www.powells.com/post/original-essays/do-we-need-gender" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article</a> for Powell’s City of Books titled “Do We Need Gender,” Davis writes about the subject of gender and its relevance to contemporary society.

In the article, Davis criticizes the “belief” that sex is determined by genitalia:  
“Many people still believe that sex is determined by genitalia. Girls have vaginas, and boys have penises … Most people who are born with penises and identified as male at birth go on to identify as boys and then men. And most people who are born with vaginas and identified as female at birth go on to identify as girls and then as women.”
He claims this belief can lead to transgender discrimination:
“This variation has repercussions for how we detect and fight transgender discrimination. Some people who identify as ‘trans’ experience transgender discrimination because others perceive them to have altered, or be in the process of changing their birth sex designation, or because they have disclosed such as transition. Some people who identify as trans do not experience transgender discrimination because they appear to others to be gender conforming. To further complicate matters, some people who do not identify as trans experience transgender discrimination because others perceive them as trans and/or gender non-conforming.” 
In another 2017 <a href="https://genderpolicyreport.umn.edu/why-testosterone-ranges-should-replace-sex-segregation-in-title-ix-sports/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article</a> titled “Why Testosterone Ranges Should Replace Sex-Segregation in Title IX Sports,” Davis argues in favor of athletes performing in sports based on their amount of testosterone rather than their biological gender. 
“[W]e can say that certain sex-related physiological features, such as muscle mass, lung capacity, and aggression, are relevant to ‘fair play.’ These mutable characteristics are affected by the amount of functional testosterone in an athlete’s body, not by the presence or absence of genitalia.”
He admits this change would not be easy and would result in certain social consequences:
“If we were to replace sex-segregation with testosterone levels in Title IX sports, we would, of course, not be making a trivial change. Part of the sense of ‘losing tradition’ is tied up with losing the social aspect of gender-based affinity that is considered formative to young athletes: girls and boys and women and men working together toward common goals and competing to achieve them”
Yet, Davis concludes the article by subtly expressing his favor for this form of collegiate athletics in light of other moves the NCAA has made:
“Replacing male and female competitive sports with hormone levels seems, on its face, radical, but the NCAA and other elite sports organizations have already begun rewriting the rules in favor of fair play.”

<a href="https://liberalarts.temple.edu/about/faculty-staff/jennifer-pollitt" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jennifer Pollitt</a> is an Assistant Professor and the Assistant Director of Gender, Sexuality and Women’s Studies at Temple University. Her expertise includes “Sexuality and Gender Studies,” “Sexuality Education,” and “LGBTQIA Civil Rights.” She also organizes #MeToo conferences for academic and professional attendees. 

In May 2023, Pollitt was featured in a <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/temple-university-has-a-porn-studies-class-2023-5" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Business Insider article</a> titled “Temple University now offers porn-studies course. In the class, students talk about things they ‘don’t even discuss with their closest friends.’” Pollitt told the Insider that her course “kept having a longer wait list” of students who were interested in the topic. She ultimately concluded that people “really want to talk about [sex].” 

The Insider wrote:

“[Pollitt] said her goal in creating the course was to use digital pornography as a jumping-off point to talk about race, ability, and the patriarchy. Pollitt added that she wanted to teach students how to get away with binary thinking: viewing porn as simply right versus wrong, good versus bad.”

Pollitt also said the discussion in her course venture into “racialized porn,” “disability porn,” and “trans porn.” However, in the past, she told <a href="https://19thnews.org/2023/07/porn-studies-temple-university-professor-jennifer-pollitt/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">19th News</a> that her course would not include watching pornographic movies and “[u]npacking the stigma about porn and sexuality is one of her goals as an educator.” 

The screenshot below shows a list of hypersexualized classes primarily taught by Pollitt.

The university publication <a href="https://news.temple.edu/news/2023-09-14/what-you-need-know-watching-marvels" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Temple Now</a> included Pollitt’s comments on a film called The Marvel, which features an all-female main cast. Pollitt was asked to share her thoughts on Nia DaCosta (a black woman) who directed the movie. Pollitt was quoted saying:

In the article, Pollitt also took offense to the phrase “going all-female,” declaring that the film “challenges” views on women as superheroes and “reinforces that women are just as strong, brave, capable and resilient as men.” Apparently, Pollitt is unfamiliar with historic female heroines and lead characters such as Catwoman (1940), Wonder Woman (1941), Batwoman (1956), The Bionic Woman (1976), and Elasti-Girl/Woman (DC Comics, 1963; Disney, 2004).

When asked by <a href="https://19thnews.org/2023/07/porn-studies-temple-university-professor-jennifer-pollitt/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">19th News</a> about the purpose of her salacious class, Pollitt admitted that “porn studies” hasn’t been taken seriously in the past because the topic “was considered smut and a waste of time.” Considering the innumerable marriages and <a href="https://extension.usu.edu/relationships/research/effects-of-pornography-on-relationships" target="_blank" rel="noopener">relationships destroyed by pornography</a>—as well as <a href="https://www.theasservoproject.org/pornography-and-human-trafficking/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the industry’s proven ties</a> to adult and child sex trafficking—Pollitt is doing a disservice to the education community at Temple University, if not the entire realm of academics.

Dr. Allyn Walker is an openly transgender —preferred pronouns they/them—a postdoctoral fellow at the <a href="https://publichealth.jhu.edu/">Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health</a>. In June of 2021, Dr. Walker <a href="https://www.ucpress.edu/book/9780520306363/a-long-dark-shadow">wrote a book titled</a>, A Long, Dark Shadow: Minor-Attracted People and Their Pursuit of Dignity.

<img class="size-full wp-image-1773 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-15-at-11.31.39-AM.png" alt="" width="466" height="222" />

The book, which Dr. Walker describes as interview-based research, discusses non-offending pedophiles (or Minor-Attracted Persons, as Dr. Walker calls them). According to Dr. Walker, the book highlights people who are attracted to minors who don’t don’t commit violent crimes in order to challenge the “widespread assumption that those who are ‘preferentially attracted to minors’ are always predators and sex offenders.” The book details how those who don’t commit violent crimes against children navigate their feelings and attraction to minors.

On November 11, 2021<a href="https://twitter.com/libsoftiktok/status/1458985538334068740?s=21" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> a series of videos on Twitter of Dr. Walker came to light</a>. In these videos, Dr. Walker tries to normalize the term “Minor-Attracted Person” (MAP) and destigmatize pedophilia. In the video, Dr. Walker claims that it is important to call a group by a name in which they want to be called. Dr. Walker states that groups are advocating for MAP as their name because it’s less stigmatized than the term pedophile, and they are doing nothing wrong if they aren’t committing violent crimes against children. Dr. Walker goes on to say that who a person is attracted to (in this case children) isn’t indicative of the morality of that person or that attraction. The video series can be viewed below:

Old Dominion University would later announce that Dr. Allyn Walker would <a href="https://www.odu.edu/news/2021/11/a_statement_from_old_dominion_university#.Yn343qjMI2w">resign at the expiration of his contract</a> in May 2022.

<a href="https://www.jgillpeterson.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jules Gill-Peterson</a> is an Associate Professor of History at <a href="https://www.jhu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Johns Hopkins University</a>. He has referred to the gender binary as “junk science” and advocated for allowing children to transition at any age.

In his substack—<a href="https://sadbrowngirl.substack.com/archive?sort=new" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sad Brown Girl</a>—Peterson attacks conservatives as transphobic, denies there can be only two genders, and documents his life as a transwoman and activist. In one article, titled “The Cis State,” he claims the <a href="https://sadbrowngirl.substack.com/p/the-cis-state" target="_blank" rel="noopener">gender binary never existed historically in the medical community</a>. Rather, politicians and psychologists invented the concept 70 years ago in a nefarious attempt to control people.

“...[S]ex did not become cis until the invention of the concept of gender in the mid-twentieth century. Gender was invented by psychologists to bring order to the collapse of the sex binary in science and medicine.”  

During an interview with Scientific American, <a href="https://www.scientificamerican.com/video/how-junk-science-is-being-used-against-trans-kids2/#Echobox=1649463388" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Peterson claims the idea of a gender binary is still weaponized by present-day scientists against trans people.</a> After being introduced by the host as a “science historian,” he again states that scientists had no idea what determined sex or gender until the mid-20th century.

Further on, Peterson asserts there is no consensus on what determines whether someone is male or female. He then compares any scientific attempts to do so with the “junk science” of the eugenics movement and inflicting harm on trans people.

Peterson often addresses issues surrounding transgender children and berates critics who challenge that children can transition at a young age. On his <a href="https://twitter.com/gp_jls" target="_blank" rel="noopener">personal Twitter account</a>, Peterson urges his followers to “champion” trans children, and even “to want there to be trans kids in the world.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
South Dakota has spent SEVEN YEARS working to pass this anti-trans bill. Trans people have had to organize against it for seven years—and now it passes. Chase is right, everyone needs to champion trans kids in progressive coalition. Kids can’t outrun seven relentless years alone. <a href="https://t.co/UTael9Kkdx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://t.co/UTael9Kkdx</a>

I believe more than ever that the way to end a child-hating culture where everyone is invested in children suffering is to learn to want there to be trans kids in this world.

Peterson claims that <a href="https://newrepublic.com/article/163113/behind-gop-strategy-outlaw-trans-youth" target="_blank" rel="noopener">it’s false to “presume” that trans kids will be cared for by their families</a>. His comments appeared in an interview with The New Republic, where he depicted parents as an impediment to trans children. He attacks white women as segregationists who weaponize their status as mothers to fuel anti-trans legislation. “The figure of the mom is hanging over everything,” she states.

In a separate substack article, <a href="https://sadbrowngirl.substack.com/p/we-the-abuser-state" target="_blank" rel="noopener">he further claims that “parental rights” are inhibiting minors from making fully autonomous decisions about their gender</a>.

“The slogan of ‘parental rights” is at the root of the fantasy that children are quasi-property, not people.”

Conservatives who object to transitioning children are <a href="https://thenewinquiry.com/from-gender-critical-to-qanon-anti-trans-politics-and-the-laundering-of-conspiracy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">branded as QAnon-style conspiracy theorists</a> who are aiming to construct an “<a href="https://jewishcurrents.org/the-anti-trans-lobbys-real-agenda" target="_blank" rel="noopener">authoritarian Christian ethnostate.</a>”

Much of this ire is directed toward author Abigail Shrier author of, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Irreversible-Damage-Transgender-Seducing-Daughters/dp/1684510317" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Irreversible Damage.”</a> The book examines the exponential increase in rates of gender dysphoria among teenagers—of which Shrier attributes to <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/06/27/how-peer-contagion-plays-into-the-rise-of-teens-transitioning/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“peer contagion”</a>—and the negative, <a href="https://www.city-journal.org/hormone-treatments-gender-dysphoric-children" target="_blank" rel="noopener">long-term health effects on teens who undergo gender transitions</a>.

Reacting to a Senate testimony delivered by Shrier on trans children, Peterson <a href="https://sadbrowngirl.substack.com/p/abigail-shrier-goes-to-washington" target="_blank" rel="noopener">labels her as a “TERF”</a> (Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminist) who is unqualified to speak on trans issues, in part because Shrier is not transgender herself. She accuses Shrier of flirting with white supremacy and peddling “pedophilic fantasies.”

“I invite you to join me in standing against the extreme sexual harassment, pedophilic fantasies, and torturous sadism of TERF and anti-trans rhetoric peddled by people like Shrier, backed up by an army of internet trolls and well-funded cultural tastemakers getting rich off pretending they are humiliated and canceled.“

Peterson is also the author of “History of the Transgender Child,” which maintains that <a href="https://history.jhu.edu/faculty-books/histories-of-the-transgender-child/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">transgender children have been prevalent and well-documented over the last century</a>. He further serves as the General Editor of <a href="https://www.dukeupress.edu/tsq-transgender-studies-quarterly">Transgender Studies Quarterly</a>, of which the next issue will feature “Trans Marxist” authors and perspectives.

Her research interests “address how mid-twentieth century writers of both fiction and non-fiction strategically deployed racial language in American popular culture.”

Mott’s university profile also mentions a manuscript titled, “Saving the Soul of the Great Republic: Imagining Race and Writing Democracy.” According to the description, the book “argues that authors writing during the inter- and postwar years of the twentieth century relied on ‘literary racial transvestism,’ a practice wherein black authors wrote novels with predominantly white characters and [vice versa].”

The College Fix said the countersuit mentions a home in the same neighborhood that sold within a month of Mott’s. The same company appraised the home for $7,000 less than the purchase price. Further, Mott and her husband did not provide their appraiser with documentation of any additional estimates showing a higher home value.

<a href="https://sais.jhu.edu/users/ymounk1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Yascha Mounk</a> is a Professor of Practice of International Affairs at Johns Hopkins University (JHU). Mounk’s faculty profile says he is “a political scientist known for his work on the rise of populism and the crisis of liberal democracy.”

Mounk was outspoken on Twitter after the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack against Israel. Mounk wrote that Israel “has every right to defend itself” but that their response constituted “moral error” when Palestinians become casualties. However, Mounk did not acknowledge <a href="https://stratcomcoe.org/cuploads/pfiles/hamas_human_shields.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hamas’ use of human shields as a war tactic</a>. The militant group often stores its arsenal inside civilian structures (e.g. schools, hospitals, and mosques).
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Hamas murdered over 1,400 people in an indescribably sadistic manner.

Its leaders have made it very clear that they will continue to murder Israeli civilians if given the chance.

Israel has every right to defend itself.

But that is all the more reason for Israel to operate in…

According to <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/style/media/2024/02/05/atlantic-yascha-mounk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Washington Post</a>, Mounk said, “I am aware of the horrendous allegations against me. It is categorically untrue.” The Post also referred to <a href="https://libertiesjournal.com/articles/after-rape-a-guide-for-the-tormented/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">an essay</a> published by the victim that said, “When the shrieking stops … you will reach the phase at which all you can think and talk about is the rape.”

JHU has not publicly stated whether Mounk will remain in his faculty position. As of publication, <a href="https://sais.jhu.edu/users/ymounk1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">his profile</a> does not show him on leave from the college.

“Roanoke is a prime example of a small city that has attracted queer and trans folks from the countryside, yet the city’s distinctive racial geographies mean that any space here for queer people has only been welcoming to some but not others. Roanoke’s queer map reveals disparate spaces of belonging among white folks versus Black folks, men versus women, cisgender versus trans folks. Queer fiefdoms, indeed.”
The book description reads:
“Queer history is a living practice. Talk to any group of LGBTQ people today, and they will not agree on what story should be told. Many people desire to celebrate the past by erecting plaques and painting rainbow crosswalks, but queer and trans people in the twenty-first century need more than just symbols—they need access to power, justice for marginalized people, spaces of belonging. Approaching the past through a lens of queer and trans survival and world-building transforms history itself into a tool for imagining and realizing a better future.”
In the introductory chapter of the book, Rosenthal addresses what led him and like-minded community members to become Roanoke-centered advocates for the LGBTQ community:
 “When Donald Trump was running for president in 2016, a community member came up with the slogan for our project: Make Roanoke Queer Again. This is the story of how we have attempted to do just that: the work of queering a city in a region known more for its Confederate monuments and socially conservative Bible thumping than for its LGBTQ heritage.”
In an <a href="https://gsrosenthal.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/make-ronoke-queer-again-tph.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article</a> titled, “Make Roanoke Queer Again Community History and Urban Change in a Southern City,” Rosenthal writes on the history of Roanoke and its relation to the LGBTQ community. The abstract for the article states the following of Roanoke’s history: 

“This essay explores intersections among urban history, queer history, and public history in a gentrifying southern city. I show how queer cultures flourished in Roanoke, Virginia, in the 1960s and 1970s only to be displaced by a combination of police repression, urban planning, and gentrification starting in the late 1970s and 1980s … This essay argues that queer community history projects can be a form of resistance to gentrification and a means to preserve our history from ’queer erasure.’”
Rosenthal claims the “#MakeRoanokeQueerAgain” bar crawls that he and his associates go on will help change the overall sexual preference of cities, especially that of Roanoke:
“Our #MakeRoanokeQueerAgain bar crawl is just one example of how community history projects can make cities queer again by renaming and reclaiming urban space, thereby resisting a gentrification that threatens to erase the queer past …  I want Roanoke to become just a little bit more queer.”

Further tweets reviewed by the Professor Watchlist team showcase his support for the Black Lives Matter movement and Colin Kaepernick. One tweet postulates that modern-day conservatives would crucify Jesus Christ due to his status as a “leader of Black Lives Matter.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

The comment is directed at Confederate General Robert E. Lee, who served as Washington and Lee’s President after the cessation of the Civil War. For years, protestors have <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/washington-and-lee-university-may-scrap-its-name-next-month-after-years-of-protest/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">demanded the removal of Lee from the university’s name and denounced the General for his connections to slavery.</a>

Dr. Casey was among 100 other professors at the university <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200708003710/https://richmond.com/news/washington-and-lee-faculty-vote-to-change-the-universitys-name/article_c5141929-035b-598b-b2a5-2e29da73aa48.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">who called for the removal of Lee from the university name in the summer of 2020</a>. The faculty voted by a margin of 79-21% for the removal of Lee's name. In a subsequent interview, he admits that many faculty voted out of concern that they would “end up on the wrong side” of history.

“We feel like we’re going to end up on the wrong side of this as an institution and that it will harm us...Everyone who was in that conversation feels that the best thing for our institution is to drop our affiliation with Lee.”

The board of Trustees would later vote 22-6 to keep the name while committing $225 million as part of a “strategic plan” to achieve racial equity.

As <a href="http://www.campusreform.org/?ID=6690">reported</a> by Campus Reform, Caplan compares Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign to the rise of Adolf Hitler.
In the weeks following Donald Trump’s <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/donald-trump-announces-2016-presidential-campaign-make-country/story?id=31799741">announcement</a> that he would seek the 2016 Republican nomination, Caplan writes in <a href="https://www.poynter.org/reporting-editing/2015/commentary-the-danger-of-laughing-at-donald-trump/">Poynter, </a> a non-profit journalism and research center, that news organizations must hold Trump and the Republican party accountable “for the damage [Trump] does.” Caplan characterizes Trump’s views as racist and legitimizing of those American citizens who fear changing demographics.
While acknowledging that he views Trump’s chances as winning the nomination for the presidency unlikely, Kaplan draws parallels between Trump&#8217;s campaign and the unexpected rise of Hitler in Germany.

Caplan further states in the same article that Trump is dangerous and that his speech is a classic ploy to generate fear and sow divisiveness.  Caplan urges journalists to treat more seriously the “danger” that Trump poses. Caplan accuses Trump of characterizing Mexicans as being criminals, rapists, and carrying diseases. Caplan says that these characterizations are similar to the rhetorical tactics used by the Nazi party against the Jews.

<a href="http://steinhardt.nyu.edu/faculty/Mark_Crispin_Miller">Dr. Mark Crispin Miller</a>, a professor at New York University warned that President Bush was spreading propaganda in order to form a theocracy in the United States. He also compared Bush to Hitler, saying “All the major war-drives in modern history... in Germany, in the Soviet Union, and in the Middle East -- have been impelled by people who believed that they were at risk, that they were being persecuted, that they faced annihilation. Hitler actually believed that 'world Jewry' threatened Germany, and that his bloody enterprise was a means of self-defense against the Jews. We know all too well that al-Qaeda's people universally regard the Jews and Christians as plotting to wipe out Islam. And the Christo-fascist types now in control of the United States believe that they're the victims of non-Christians."

<a href="https://as.nyu.edu/content/nyu-as/as/faculty/ulrich-c-baer.html">Dr. Ulrich Baer</a> is a Professor of Comparative Literature at New York University. He wrote an editorial in the New York Times supporting the suppression of free speech on college campuses. He claimed "The idea of freedom of speech does not mean a blanket permission to say anything anybody thinks. It means balancing the inherent value of a given view with the obligation to ensure that other members of a given community can participate in discourse as fully recognized members of that community."

As of January 25, 2024, Husain has been <a href="https://www.nyu.edu/about/news-publications/news/2024/january/statement-by-nyu-spokesperson-john-beckman-regarding-amin-husain.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">suspended</a> by NYU for remarks made about Zionism and Hamas during a teach-in arranged by Students for Justice in Palestine. A shortened video of the talk can be viewed in a report compiled by <a href="https://www.thefp.com/p/nyu-prof-tells-students-hamas-atrocities-untrueu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Free Press</a>. 

During the lecture, which took place at The New School, Husain made several controversial statements about the Israel and Palestine conflict. Mentioning other locations that are friendly to Palestinians, the professor suggested such is not the case in a “Zionist city” like New York. He also said he embraced the “Anti-Semitic” epithet that had been attached to him by the <a href="https://canarymission.org/professor/Amin_Husain" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Canary Mission</a> for his views on the Palestinian resistance efforts towards Israel:
“I have a petition going around, right, because I’m antisemitic. I won the honors of antisemitic multiple times.”
During the teach-in, Husain explained his solution for those who “don’t like Hamas” and justified the political and military motives of the various Palestinian resistance groups. The professor stated,
 “If you don’t like Hamas.. free the land and the people. But if you don’t like Hamas, also read their <a href="https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/hamas-2017-document-full" target="_blank" rel="noopener">charter</a> in 2017… These groups are fighting for the liberation of their people and their land. That’s a right. You do it.”
In October 2023, a Change.org <a href="https://www.change.org/p/demand-the-dismissal-of-nyu-professor-amin-hussain-for-promoting-hate-speech">petition</a> was put in place by NYU alumni calling for Husain’s dismissal from the university.

Husain said he participated in the First Intifada riots in Palestine in 1987. <a href="https://www.thefp.com/p/nyu-prof-tells-students-hamas-atrocities-untrueu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Free Press</a> noted “At a Times Square rally in 2016, [Husain] <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1lhMCj4ESw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">declared</a>, ‘Living 18 years in Palestine, I was fighting in the first uprising, I was throwing rocks, Molotov cocktails, the like.’”

Concerning the Hamas attacks on Israel in October 2023, Husain denied that any Israeli citizens were raped or beheaded. He alleges such events to be lies put forth by the media:
“Don’t take what the media says. It’s really important… Because these kind of questions try to put you on the defensive. They try to say. . .‘Oh my God, you’re supporting rapists and people that behead babies,’ both of which, you know… we know it’s not true.”
 As of the publication Husain has yet to comment on his suspension or the statements that prompted it.

<a href="https://gallatin.nyu.edu/people/faculty/amh20.html">Amin Husain</a> is a part-time faculty member at New York University and the Pratt Institute. According to the university’s website, Husain’s work focuses on “resistance and liberation, movement generated theory and practice.”

Husain is also confounded and directs the NYC-based activist group, “<a href="https://decolonizethisplace.org/">Decolonize This Place</a>” (DTP).  According to their website, DTP events center around “Indigenous Struggle, Black Liberation, Free Palestine, Global Wage Workers, and De-Gentrification.”

Husain and DTP are known for their extreme rhetoric and aggressive confrontations with law enforcement. Husain and DTP utilize ANTIFA style-tactics during protests. The <a href="https://decolonizethisplace.org/">homepage</a> of DTP regularly features videos of burning police vehicles.

Prior to the Museum of Natural History’s decision to remove their statue of Theodore Roosevelt, Husain joined a chorus of activists demanding that the statue be removed. DTP itself <a href="https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c5e0c57d86cc9226827c754/t/5ee7ad184833d0007a2078fd/1592241433767/How+To+Take+Down+A+Monument_Poster.jpg">posted</a> a detailed graphic with instructions on toppling statues.

In January, DTP posted the following graphic for an upcoming <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=14391">protest</a> against the NYP. The damage from the protests led by Husain resulted in 13 arrests and over $100,000 in <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/02/15/nyu-professor-founded-anarchist-group-that-attacked-subways-last-month/">damages</a> to the NYC subway system.

As a member of NYC Solidarity With Palestine, Husain is known for using his position to entwine his anti-police and anti-Israel views. Husain projected his radicalism at the June “No To Annexation” rally, hosted by the anti-Israel group <a href="https://www.wolpalestine.com/about">Within Our Lifetimes</a>. Husain can be seen telling the crowd that police "are our enemy" in a video captured by the Middle-East watchdog the <a href="https://www.memri.org/tv/no-to-annexation-anti-israel-rally-abolish-police-israel-american-government-death-to-america">Middle East Research Institute</a>.

In a piece for <a href="https://theconversation.com/trumps-promotion-of-an-image-of-strength-after-assassination-attempt-borrows-from-authoritarian-playbook-235038" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Conversation</a>, Ben-Ghiat wrote about the personal and sociopolitical effect of the July 13 assassination attempt on President-Donald Trump. She compared the assassination attempt with attempts made on fascist leaders in the 20th century:

“The effects of the assassination attempt on Trump are so far in line with authoritarian history. Chief among its aftereffects is a boost to Trump’s victimhood persona.” 

Ben-Ghiat continued on the same subject:
“[W]ith each failed attempt, the personality cult themes about the leader’s macho toughness, resilience and invincibility gain credence among his followers. This was certainly the case with Castro and Mussolini, and it has been the case so far with former President Donald Trump.”
The professor further claims that Trump wearing a bandage to cover his gunshot wound is a gesture similar to that of Benito Mussolini, who wore a large bandage on his nose after he was almost assassinated. 

According to Ben-Ghiat, these attempts-–including the one on Trump—have been used throughout history to justify authoritarianism:

“The assassination attempt on Trump may be used as justification for these measures, just as other attacks have been used by other authoritarians in history.”

Ben-Ghiat claims the events at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, were a “self-coup” by former President Donald Trump that influenced other similar alleged “coups” throughout the world. In a July 2024 blog <a href="https://lucid.substack.com/p/autocrats-like-trump-and-maduro-want" target="_blank" rel="noopener">post</a>, Ben-Ghiat wrote the following:

“Although Trump’s ‘self-coup’ failed (the term used for attempts by incumbents to stay in power illegally), it was influential abroad, inspiring Jair Bolsonaro’s failed Jan. 8, 2023 Brazilian insurrection. Having had a coup that led to a decades-long dictatorship, the Brazilians took the danger of propagating electoral fraud seriously, convicting Bolsonaro for it and banning him from politics until 2030.”  

The professor then drew connections between Chinese head of state Xi Jinping and President-elect Donald Trump:

“When Trump <a href="https://newrepublic.com/article/184076/trumps-alarming-new-rant-praising-dictators-shows-media-failing-us" target="_blank" rel="noopener">praises</a> Chinese head of state Xi Jinping for his ability to rule ‘with an iron fist,’ he is praising a situation in which opposition parties don’t exist, which makes elections moot and ‘simplifies’ political life.”

At the conclusion of her post, Ben-Ghiat claimed President-electTrumps' goal is to do away with elections altogether:

“The endgame of MAGA election denial is not challenging this or that election, but convincing Americans that elections as a practice are unnecessary. Trump would be delighted to relieve us of the ‘burden; of voting, just like Mussolini did for Italians a century ago.”

Around the same time as the publication of The Conversation piece, Ben-Ghiat did an interview with <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/jul/13/ruth-ben-ghiat-strongmen-book-authoritarian-playbook">The Guardian</a> titled “Rule of the lawless: what does the authoritarian playbook look like?”

In the interview, Ben-Ghiat claimed that President-elect Trump will greatly benefit from the U.S. Supreme Court <a href="https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf/23-939_e2pg.pdf">ruling</a> in favor of presidents having broad immunity from criminal prosecution. She also stated that Trump ran for president only to escape legal issues:

“Trump is part of the category of authoritarians who run for office, to get back into office, because they have charges against them, and they must get into power so they can make their legal problems go away. Regular politicians don’t want to run for office if they have indictments or charges, but the strongman must run for office because he must make himself feel safe from prosecution… Authoritarianism is about replacing the rule of law with rule by the lawless…”

In another interview in June with <a href="https://www.project-syndicate.org/onpoint/how-authoritarian-leaders-dismantle-democracy-trump-orban-netanyahu-meloni-by-ruth-ben-ghiat-2024-06-1-2024-06?h=zqERgfHOrWvhXfSv10C5SHJXn2IpYOHBijyEtez%2fd0M%3d&amp;]" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Project Syndicate</a>, Ben-Ghiat focused on Trump’s alleged tyrannical goal regarding presidential immunity: 

“I have no doubt that Trump would try to exert dictatorial power so that he could end his legal troubles and repress his critics and investigators without consequences.”

“Now add Trump’s quest to achieve personal immunity for any crimes he will commit, his efforts to attract more unscrupulous cronies by promising pardons, and his vow to grant police officers immunity from prosecution. It becomes easy to see how the rule of law would be transformed into rule by the lawless, with Trump as chief thug.”

<a href="https://as.nyu.edu/content/nyu-as/as/faculty/ruth-ben-ghiat.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Ruth Ben-Ghiat</a> is a Professor of Italian and History at <a href="https://as.nyu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York University</a>. Her <a href="https://as.nyu.edu/content/nyu-as/as/faculty/ruth-ben-ghiat.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">professional biography lists her as an expert on fascism, authoritarianism, war, propaganda, and Donald Trump.</a> She is the author of the book, “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Strongmen-Mussolini-Present-Ruth-Ben-Ghiat/dp/1324001542" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Strongman: From Mussolini to the Present</a>,” and frequently makes appearances on CNN and MSNBC.

Dr. Ben-Ghiat frequently criticizes conservatives, characterizing them as violent and an outright threat to democracy. She additionally alleges that supporters of the second-amendment birthed a culture that directly resulted in the January 6th “insurrection.”

In an article for CNN—titled, “Parental control is a smokescreen tactic for right-wing activists”—Dr. Ben-Ghiat <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2021/10/14/opinions/parental-control-smoke-screen-right-wing-activists-ben-ghiat/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">denounces parents who object to COVID-19 restrictions in schools</a>.

She is referring to <a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/orange-county-parents-protest-vaccine-mandates-at-school-board-meeting/ar-AAPZFid" target="_blank" rel="noopener">nation-wide protests occurring at county and district school boards</a>. Peaking during the Fall 2021 semester, parents with <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/education/2021/11/03/virginia-parents-democrats-crt-transgender-policies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">school-age children are vocally objecting to mandatory masking, COVID-19 vaccinations, and curriculum containing elements of critical race theory.</a> The epicenter of protests against county school boards stemmed from Loudon County, which saw Board Members <a href="https://nypost.com/2021/10/27/loudoun-county-parents-demand-resignations-over-sexual-assault/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">allegedly participate in a cover-up of a sexual assault in a local high school.</a>

Dr. Ben-Ghiat describes these parents as elements of the “authoritarian culture” that is eroding democracy. She specifically cites their opposition to mandatory masking and vaccination of children, alleging it stems from a “Q-Anon” belief.

She states that “anti-vaccine militants” and “white-christian evangelicals” are using “parental rights” as a smokescreen to abolish private education. She decries parents allegedly “censoring” books that would teach children about the “centrality of racism and slavery” to this country’s founding. She further criticizes calls for parental control in education, describing it as the installation of “authoritarian culture” in towns and local school boards.

In a separate article for the Washington Post—titled,”<a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2021/10/26/gun-violence-authoritarianism-normalization/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">America’s Gun Culture is Priming Us for Authoritarianism</a>,”—Dr. Ben-Ghiat alleges the Capitol Riots are the inevitable result of an armed citizenry.

She is referring to the incident surrounding January 6, 2021 at the Capital <a href="https://www.npr.org/2021/02/09/965472049/the-capitol-siege-the-arrested-and-their-stories" target="_blank" rel="noopener">in which a number of protestors breached the Capitol’s Doors during certification of the 2020 Presidential Election</a>, some violently so. Despite claims to the contrary, even the FBI has determined that <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/fbi-confirms-there-was-no-insurrection-on-january-6" target="_blank" rel="noopener">no evidence exists that any rioters coordinated to commit an “insurrection.</a>”

Dr. Ben-Ghiat alleges that general access to lethal weapons enables “mass death” and a “democratic decline” in America. She bizarrely connects the January 6th “insurrection” to civilian ownership of firearms, alleging the later enables “mass death” and desensitizes others to human life.

Dr. Ben-Ghiat further alleges that gun owners are willing to harm others in exchange for their freedoms, alleging that no loss of life seems to deter them:

She then connects gun ownership to a rise of fascism in America, alleging that dictators controlled masses through a climate of fear and mass death. She states that gun owners are using this same formula to encourage “fundamentalist and cult ideologies'':

Courses taught by Archer include the titles “Race and Inequality Colloquium”, “Civil Rights Clinic Seminar”, and “Critical Race Theory Seminar.” The <a href="https://its.law.nyu.edu/courses/description.cfm?id=29639" target="_blank" rel="noopener">description for CRT Seminary</a> says,

“This seminar explores Critical Race Theory, a movement that examines the relationship among race, racism, and the U.S. legal system and the role of law in constructing and upholding racial hierarchy…We will also consider the theoretical promises of CRT, its application to the law, and its practical and theoretical limitations in addressing contemporary legal issues.”

In 2020, Archer published “<a href="https://cdn.vanderbilt.edu/vu-wp0/wp-content/uploads/sites/278/2020/10/19130728/White-Mens-Roads-Through-Black-Mens-Homes-Advancing-Racial-Equity-Through-Highway-Reconstruction.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">White Men’s Road Through Black Men’s Homes”: Advancing Racial Equity Through Highway Reconstruction</a>” in the Vanderbilt Law Review. The paper discusses segregated public transportation in the United States prior to Civil Rights reform. Archer’s introduction says,

“The passage of the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956, popularly known as the National Interstate and Defense Highways Act or the Interstate Highway Act, buoyed both highway construction and the destruction of Black communities. Often under the guise of ‘slum removal,’ federal and state officials' purposes targeted Black communities to make a way for massive highway projects.”

She continued,

“In other communities, the highway spared Black homes but became a permanent racial barrier between white and Black neighborhoods, further entrenching racial segregation and walling off economic opportunities.”

Archer’s efforts and research to end racial segregation continue through the Center on Race, Inequity, and the Law. The Center published a video titled “The Enduring Problem of School Segregation” in which civil rights activists and lawmakers are interviewed regarding the progress of integration in the American education systems.

“The most grotesque feature of the 2016 election is the razor-thin spectrum of solutions proposed by the front runners to a historic set of problems…no viable candidate [offered] any hope for a radically more equal society: the policies on offer would merely mitigate the dire inequality that has been growing since Reagan…The United States is now, in effect, an oligarchy.”

In the chapter Sex Class, she says, 

“Gender currently divides the working class — women’s struggles are often pushed aside as if they are not half the population — but it shouldn’t be central to our struggle, an asset…The first step toward gender justice would require a reexamination of the nuclear family.”

After the overturning of Roe v.

<a href="https://www.sps.nyu.edu/homepage/academics/faculty-directory/19002-gabrielle-n-simpson.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gabrilelle Gambrell</a> is “an Adjunct Instructor in Marketing and Public Relations at New York University (NYU). According to her university profile, she “teaches graduate-level courses in integrated marketing, digital and social media, media relations, corporate communications and more.”

In a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mzjy8qMUNi4">program</a> for the Dr. Phil Show, Gambrell was consulted for her opinions on censorship and the effect of “offensive” tweets on a person’s job. 

<iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Mzjy8qMUNi4" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>

Responding to Dr. Phil’s question about the censorship of “hate speech,” Gambrell stated: 

“I am extremely in favor of the First Amendment…but we have seen things that happen when social media is not censored…where there’s negativity there should be censorship.” She cited what she deemed were instances of racist, homophobic, and other types of “nasty” behavior recorded on social media posts, but gave no examples.

Gambrell believes that, “In certain instances where [a social media post is] harmful, in certain instances where it can hurt people, where there’s negative intent, there should be censorship.” 

The NYU professor — who formerly held jobs in U.S. media — went on to say she feels satisfaction when users of hate speech lose their jobs because of what they posted on social media:
“In some instances where I see viral videos where someone is clearly racist or homophobic or anything nasty and then the video goes viral, they lose their job, I’m like ‘score’ because that person does not deserve to have this title which can impact certain communities, they need to work on themselves.”
Gambrell’s <a href="https://www.giftofgabrielle.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">website</a> states that she is “a champion for diversity, equity and inclusion,” which are also problems she seeks to solve through “e​​xecutive, corporate and brand consulting services.”

<a href="https://as.nyu.edu/faculty/isabella-hammad.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Isabella Hammad</a> is an Artist in Residence at New York University. She is also an author and novelist. 

In an interview with <a href="https://www.worldliteraturetoday.org/2021/summer/always-more-place-conversation-about-palestine-isabella-hammad-keija-parssinen" target="_blank" rel="noopener">World Literature Today</a>, Hammad discussed her book “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Parisian-Isabella-Hammad/dp/0802129439" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Parisian</a>.” While discussing her novel’s protagonist “Midhat,” Hammad claims that Western individualism cannot apply to those who are not European or American:
“You could say that Midhat initially embraces a model of Western individualism, which he then realizes doesn’t apply to him, because the model of the Western individual is only available to the white European or American.”
She proceeds to discuss one of her purposes in writing the novel:
“So if it serves an educational purpose in enlightening some readers who, for example, might have fallen victim to the idea that before the state of Israel was created, Palestine was “a land without a people,” then I’ll be happy about that. But I think that in order for such a thing to happen effectively, the book has to succeed as a novel on its own terms, and it must convince the reader aesthetically and emotionally.” 
To close the interview, Hammad addressed her desire for the Palestine/Israel conflict:
“I don’t want to talk about hope—but I can talk about dreaming and desire. What do I desire? No more house demolitions, no more separation wall, no more administrative detention, no more withholding Palestinian corpses, no more separate roads for Palestinians and Israelis, no more deliberately complicated bureaucratic procedures, no more making the act of staying where you live an exhausting act of resistance, no more arms deals with America, no more testing out weapons and surveillance technology on Palestinians, no more ideology that perceives Palestinians as a demographic threat, no more ‘mowing the lawn’ in Gaza, no more night raids, no more stealing water and selling it back, no more siege, no more killing unarmed civilians, no more checkpoints, no more, no more.”
She continued:
“It’s easy to say what you don’t want and harder to say what you do. Let’s start with this: civil and political rights for everyone on the land.

<a href="https://journalism.nyu.edu/about-us/profile/chenjerai-kumanyika/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chenjerai Kumanyika</a> is an Assistant Professor of Journalism at New York University. According to his faculty profile, “Kumanyika specializes in using narrative non-fiction audio journalism to critique the ideology of American historical myths about issues such as race, the Civil War, and policing.”

RACE IDEOLOGY

During his time as a professor at Rutgers University, Kumanyika was featured in a <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article/rutgers-journalism-prof-claims-language-matters-compares-death-cult-gop-fecal-matter/16410" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Campus Reform</a> article titled “Rutgers journalism prof claims ‘language matters,’ then compares ‘death cult’ GOP to ‘fecal matter.’” The source said, “In February [2020], [Kumanyika] appeared at an event with Boston University for Anti-Racist Research Director Ibram Kendi in which he declared that ‘language matters.’”

Kumanyika called conservatives “fecal matter” on social media and told his “liberal friends” to “call out” and “organize against” the Biden-Harris administration if they tried to work with opposition leaders.

<a href="https://as.nyu.edu/faculty/emma-heaney.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Emma Heaney</a> is Clinical Assistant Professor and Faculty Advisor of Experimental Writing at New York University. 

According to her faculty profile, Heaney is “a scholar of comparative literature, feminist studies, and trans studies.”

For the spring semester of 2026, Heaney will be teaching a <a href="https://as.nyu.edu/departments/xe/curriculum/courses-spring-2026/marxism-beyond-marx-.html#:~:text=This%20course%20studies%20Marxism%20through,and%20queer%20and%20trans%20people." target="_blank" rel="noopener">course</a> titled “Marxism Beyond Marx." The course description lists various intellectual traditions through which students study Marxism, including racial: 

“This course studies Marxism through the intellectual traditions of people of color, people from colonized and formerly colonized places, feminists, and queer and trans people. We will begin the course with two influential works by Marx to establish the analytic and political frame of his method against the historical backdrop that produced it.”

The description continues:

“The course then studies traditions that have been designated either with adjectival modifications of Marxism (as in Black Marxism, Postcolonial Marxism, and Queer/Trans Marxism) or use the adjective Marxist as a modifier for a noun denoting a political and intellectual tradition (as in Marxist Feminism).” 

The goal of “Marxism Beyond Marx” is to familiarize students “with these traditions, but also to address the long-standing and still vibrant conceptual question this grammar suggests: do the historical formations of race, sex, and sexuality derive from political economy or do these historical formations constitute the substance of class itself?”

In her 2017 book “<a href="https://escholarship.org/content/qt11z5g0mz/qt11z5g0mz.pdf?t/u003dou2s6f" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The New Woman</a>,” Heaney examines “transgenderism” and sexuality in various works of modernist literature.

“The New Woman: Literary Modernism, Queer Theory, and the Trans Feminine Allegory traces the use of the trans feminine as an allegorical figure, from the practice's origins in nineteenth-century sexology through writings in the fields of psychoanalysis, Modernist fiction, and contemporary Queer Theory,” the publisher’s description states. 

For instance, Heaney claims that the character Leopold Bloom in James Joyce’s 1922 novel “Ulysses” is “transsexual,” along with his wife Molly:

“[Bloom’s] female feeling ushers in Molly Bloom’s moment of trans masculine identification in the novel’s final episode. This constitutes the Blooms as Modernism’s twice transsexual first couple,” Heaney claimed.

While these characters display qualities and express sentiments that are conventionally associated with the opposite sex, this does not mean that Joyce intended to make either a transsexual according to the contemporary view of “transgenderism.”

As The Federalist <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2021/03/12/kentuckys-berea-college-event-says-trumpism-is-terrorism-at-its-core/">reports</a>, in March of 2020, Brandzel spoke at an event called, “White Citizenship as Terrorism” as part of Berea College’s “<a href="https://www.berea.edu/wgs/gender-talk/">Gender Talk</a>” series. According to the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/BereaCollegeWomensAndGenderStudies/photos/gm.283700139806240/3790021261044031/?type=3&amp;theater">event page’s description</a>, Brandzel details that her lecture will address the “mourning” of America for a time when the actions of white people, no matter how violent, would go “unquestioned.”

The event page for “White Citizenship as Terrorism” goes on to <a href="https://www.berea.edu/wgs/gender-talk/">state</a> that the phrase, “Make America Great Again,” hearkens back to this “nostalgic” past of white impunity for which white America has been pining. Brandzel builds upon this theory, referring to it as “Trumpism” and a form of domestic terrorism.

After being introduced by Women and Gender Studies professor, Dr. Malaklou, Brandzel opens her lecture acknowledging that as a “white settler,” she is giving a lecture on colonized land taken from the Navajo, Pueblo, and Comanche Nations.
Throughout her lecture, Brandzel implies that America is an inherently racist country that codifies “whiteness” into its laws. Brandzel describes whiteness as a set of rights and privileges that only benefit white, European/American men, and ostracize non-white minorities. Brandzel then alleges that whiteness is synonymous with being an American citizen.
To justify her reasoning, Brandzel cites past Supreme Court cases such as <a href="https://www.britannica.com/event/Dred-Scott-decision">Dred Scott v Sandford</a>, in which the Supreme Court ruled that the Constitution did not provide citizenship for black slaves, as well as contemporary immigration restrictions from President Donald Trump, to allege that our nation restricts rights to white citizens and inflicts terrorism on minority populations.
Brandzel goes on to state that many laws today, such as Voter ID laws, continue to be weaponized against African-Americans. She alleges that these and other laws serve to make people of color feel like they do not belong as citizens in the country.
Brandzel states that it is the job of white women like herself and white people in the audience to “unpack” their privilege inherent in citizenship before it’s possible to address the systemic racism in America.

His university profile says that he has written extensively on sports, race, and media.
Professor Lamb has been very outspoken about his dislike of former President Trump and conservatives in general. In an article written for <a href="https://theconversation.com/texas-voting-law-builds-on-long-legacy-of-racism-from-gop-leaders-166807" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Conversation</a>, he states, “For several decades, the GOP has depended on racism to keep white people in power and nonwhites on the outside.” He says:
“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.”

“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.”

Race, Policing, and Criminal Justice Reform.”</a> Campus Reform obtained screenshots of an email sent from Director of Student Services Nicole Amonette that states “this class will explore the complex history of policing in America from early slave patrols through the civil rights era protest responses to modern-day policing, as part of a broader examination of the explosion of the American criminal justice system.”

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. Good luck with recruitment and retention of faculty, and many students as well. This is conservative “political correctness” run amok, bordering on fascism.

<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.

2) White privilege.<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/gunreform?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">#gunreform</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/WhitePrivilege?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">#WhitePrivilege</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/mentalhealth?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">#mentalhealth</a> <a href="https://t.co/xpoXvyiwX9" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://t.co/xpoXvyiwX9</a>

<a href="https://liberalarts.iupui.edu/programs/aip/directory/charmayne-charli-champion-shaw/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Charmayne 'Charli' Champion-Shaw</a> is Director of the Office of American Indian Programs and a Lecturer in Native American &amp; Indigenous Studies at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI).

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.

Arizona State University Professor David Boyles—who <a href="https://angelictroublemakers.substack.com/p/queer-joy-summer-planting-3-promote" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a>, “Sex education is a topic I’ve been obsessed with for a while”—appeared to physically assault a Turning Point USA Frontlines cameraman.  

TPUSA’s Frontlines team confronted Boyles after <a href="https://azfreenews.com/2023/09/meet-the-asu-professor-behind-arizonas-drag-queen-story-hour/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">learning</a> that he founded the Arizona chapter of Drag Queen Story Hour. Boyles refused to respond to the Frontlines reporter who asked how long he’d had the obsession with sex education and why he felt children should be exposed to drag queens.

The video of Boyles assaulting the cameraman can be viewed below:

According to<a href="https://azfreenews.com/2023/10/asu-professor-who-founded-drag-story-hour-assaults-reporter-claims-hes-victim/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> AZ Free News</a>, “Boyles accused the TPUSA men of terrorism for filming him while asking him questions…Boyles also stated on Instagram that he was jumped from behind by the TPUSA reporter.”

“Boyles established Drag Queen Story Hour-Arizona in 2019, a chapter of the national Drag Queen Story Hour organization…Boyles has been featured in several ‘The Art of Drag’ events alongside one of his drag queen storytellers…The most recent event occurred on Wednesday [September 20, 2023].  During the <a href="https://youtu.be/RN0Bou3wmxk" target="_blank" rel="noopener">presentation</a>, Boyles said that the notion that drag shows are harmful to children was a ‘myth.’ He also said that drag queens have been long considered the leaders of LGBTQ+ communities.”

During “<a href="https://youtu.be/RN0Bou3wmxk" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Art of Drag</a>” talk, Boyles claimed Drag Queen Story Hour-Arizona has been “targeted by acts of violence” and “neo-Nazis showing up to disrupt events.” He also presented what he believed to be the beginning of drag culture in America using the newspaper clip featured below:

“Sex education is a topic I’ve been obsessed with for a while…In 2021, I did a three-part ‘<a href="https://angelictroublemakers.substack.com/p/queering-sex-ed-part-i" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Queering Sex Ed</a>’ series on the history of sex education in America and the ways in which it has traditionally erased queer people, as well as the ways in which queer people have resisted this erasure and cared for their communities by creating their own sex ed underground.”

In the “Queer Sex Ed” blog, Boyles also wrote that sex education has been traditionally racist since “black people and immigrants were typically viewed as being sexually promiscuous and aggressive and sex education was designed to keep good white kids from being ‘infected’ by them.”

<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.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
UPDATE: I am happy to announce we've reached a resolution with Arizona State University for events that took place in September. With the support of my attorney, Jack Wilenchik, and countless other individuals, I am proud to have stood up, fought back and eventually, won.

According to a <a href="https://newsroom.asu.edu/press/statement-latest-update-asu-and-klein-story-0">statement released by ASU</a>, the University agreed to pay Klein a total of $7,040 for "reimbursement of her school fees."

<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.

<img class="size-large wp-image-1502 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-08-10T135650.565-e1628629052457-1024x391.png" alt="" width="580" height="221" />

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>”

&nbsp;

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.”

The full audio of the lecture is provided below.

The Professor Watchlist Team reached out to Dr. Salas prior for comment but has not received a response by the time of publication.

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.”

 “‘I wasn’t a good fit for the ‘SportsCenter’ culture. Definitely not a good fit for the management that was overseeing the ‘SportsCenter’ at the time. And I got tired. I got really tired of fighting everyday to be myself … It’s the conservative culture at ESPN and so this idea that ESPN is being run by flower children is just a lie. That’s not how it is. It’s the opposite, if anything … 
‘Once critics started seeing my face … then suddenly ESPN is too liberal because what they’re really trying to say is ‘Oh, y’all must be liberal-leaning because you got all these women and all these [b]lack people who are suddenly on my TV everyday.’”
Hill further details the ESPN incident in her book “<a href="https://us.macmillan.com/books/9781250624376/uphill" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Uphill</a>.”

In January 2024, <a href="https://variety.com/2024/biz/news/jemele-hill-agency-wme-1235887820/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Variety announced</a>, “Hill has signed with WME for representation in all areas … She is also a co-founder of Lodge Freeway Media.

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>).”

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.

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.”
On August 30, 2024, Irish was featured in The College Fix <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/u-s-hates-women-faces-future-of-cannibalism-forced-breeding-camps-asu-event/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article</a> entitled “U.S. ‘hates women,’ faces future of cannibalism, ‘forced breeding campus’: ASU event.” In <a href="https://lincolncenter.asu.edu/wb-workshop-HATCH" target="_blank" rel="noopener">partnership</a> with ASU Professor <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/angelalober" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Angela Lober</a>, Irish <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">hosted an event</a> centered on releasing her new book “<a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/Hatch/9sHtEAAAQBAJ?hl=en&amp;gbpv=1&amp;printsec=frontcover">Hatch</a>,” a collection of prose poems exploring the future of the human race surviving through AI.

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.”

Sarreal’s research interests include Latin American Studies, Food, Drugs, and Capitalism. Her top area of expertise is “Consumerism.”

On September 20, 2024, Sarreal was featured in The College Fix <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/christian-professors-intro-to-christianity-class-torpedoed-at-asu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article</a> titled “Christian professor’s ‘Intro to Christianity’ class torpedoed at ASU.” The piece covers the cancelation of <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/drowenanderson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Professor Dr. Owen Anderson’s</a> religious studies course. 

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">Physical touch-based parenting and parental stress impacted the bonding experience.</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Reciprocity and parenting confidence/knowledge strengthened attachment over time.</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).”

<a href="https://www.law.columbia.edu/faculty/kayum-ahmed">Kayum Ahmed</a> is a Lecturer in Law at Columbia University. According to his university profile, “Ahmed serves as Division Director at the Open Society Foundations (OSF) where he leads the global portfolio on access to medicines and innovation at the Public Health Program based in New York.”

On April 22, Ahmed, along with several other faculty members, wrote and signed a <a href="https://www.columbiaspectator.com/opinion/2024/04/22/untenured-faculty-stand-in-solidarity-with-our-students/">letter</a> in support of the protesters and against their treatment by the Columbia University administration during the pro-Palestinian demonstrations on campus. 

Addressing Columbia University students directly, the letter states: 
“Our message is simple: We stand with you in solidarity, we are appalled by what has been happening on our campus, and we want to help you reclaim your University.”
Concerning the protesters’ treatment by the New York Police Department and university administrators, the writers state the following in their defense: 
“Some of you have been arbitrarily suspended by your school, <a href="https://www.columbiaspectator.com/news/2024/04/18/shafik-authorizes-nypd-to-sweep-gaza-solidarity-encampment-officers-in-riot-gear-arrest-over-100/">arrested and physically removed</a> from campus by the New York Police Department, told to leave your dorms, and surveilled and threatened by University administrators. Many more of you have learned about these disturbing actions, directly or by rumor, and wonder whether you will be targeted, too, for engaging in activism that the University supposedly prides itself on fostering, for protesting on the basis of your sincere moral and political views, or simply for holding those views.”
The writers claim that both students and faculty have “real authority” over campus events: 
“In the weeks and months ahead, we look forward to working alongside you to restore norms of shared governance at the University and to ensure that students and faculty alike have real authority over what happens on our campus, rather than simply being informed of decisions taken by small groups of administrators. We want to help you to take back the University.”
The letter concludes with the following statement in support of the protesting students: 
“Most of all, we want you to feel at home here. We deeply regret that so many of you do not feel that way any longer—or that you never did. We are committed to working to change the University so that you do.”
In October 2017, Professor Kayum Ahmed <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article/lecturer-files-discrimination-complaint-speaker/10009" target="_blank" rel="noopener">filed</a> a “discrimination and harassment complaint” against the College Republicans after they invited Tommy Robinson to speak on campus, arguing that the invitation itself was an “act of violence” against him.

It is almost exclusively white men who may “reasonably” carry firearms to protests outside Target or political conventions", although still 20% of Hispanic and African-American homes own guns according to Pew research.

<a href="https://history.columbia.edu/faculty/khalidi-rashid/">Dr. Rashid Khalidi</a>, a Professor of Modern Arab Studies at Columbia University, laced criticism of Trump's foreign policy with Anti-Semitism. Discussing Trump's position on Israel, Khalidi said "They have a vision whereby there is no such thing as the Palestinians. They have a vision whereby international law doesn’t exist. They have a vision whereby the United States can unilaterally cancel a decision of the United Nations. And unfortunately, these people infest the Trump transition team, these people are going to infest our government as of January 20th. And they are hand in glove with a similar group of people in the Israeli government and in Israeli political life who think that whatever they think can be imposed on reality."

<a href="https://mesaas.columbia.edu/faculty-directory/hamid-dabashi/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hamid Dabashi</a> is a Professor of Iranian Studies and Comparative Literature at Columbia University. According to Dabashi’s university profile, “he is also the author of over 100 essays, articles and book reviews on subjects ranging from Iranian and Islamic Studies, comparative literature, world cinema, and the philosophy of art (trans-aesthetics).”

On April 23, 2024, Dabashi wrote an article for <a href="https://www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/us-election-biden-trump-two-sides-murderous-coin" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Middle East Eye</a> titled “US elections: Biden and Trump are two sides of the same murderous coin.” Towards the end of the article, Dabashi encouraged his readers to dismiss the American political system:
“We should all abandon any false hope in American democracy, and begin from the ruins of Gaza and the slaughtered corpses of Palestinians buried under those ruins and rebuild a new political imagination.”
“It is obscene to walk into any voting station and vote for anyone in this fundamentally flawed and irredeemable ‘American democracy.’ We cannot salvage this diabolical political system. We must save our own souls.”
On May 9, 2024, Dabashi wrote an article for the <a href="https://www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/gaza-war-us-europe-bear-blame-Israel-war-Palestinian-education" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Middle East Eye</a> titled “US and Europe bear direct blame for Israel’s war on Palestinian education.” In the article, Dabashi claimed that Israel’s existence entails the destruction of Palestine: 
“Israel cannot seem to fathom a future for itself as a settler colony without simultaneously exuding a diabolical urge to destroy the very existence of Palestine. It is even scared of images of <a href="https://time.com/6326312/watermelon-palestinian-symbol-solidarity/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">watermelon slices</a>.”
He then addresses Israel’s current military actions towards Palestine and their consequences and then issues a demand for the world to hold Zionists “accountable” and to aid them: 
“The message they are sending to the world is this: sit there and watch as Israel slaughters an entire nation, killing people in their tens of thousands, their bodies and souls, their minds and their very collective existence, with astounding savagery - and don’t you dare utter a word in protest, or we will label you an antisemite.”
“The world must hold the genocidal Zionists in their garrison state, and their enablers in the US and Europe, accountable. Provisions must be made for all major universities in Europe, the US, Canada and Australia to build campuses in Gaza and lend their resources to these institutions, which must be run, staffed and administered by and for Palestinians.”  
According to Dabashi: 
“Scholars from around the globe must be allowed to go to Gaza and spend sabbatical leave there. Palestinian scholars and students must be invited to spend time in North American and western European universities. Meanwhile, the <a href="https://www.aa.com.tr/en/middle-east/academic-boycott-against-israeli-universities-grows-every-day/3154023" target="_blank" rel="noopener">academic boycott</a> of Israeli universities must continue until they open their doors to Palestinian students and scholars from the entirety of the Palestinian homeland.”
As a board member of the U.S. Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel, Dabashi is ferociously <a href="https://canarymission.org/professor/Hamid_Dabashi" target="_blank" rel="noopener">anti-Israel</a>, going so far as <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2005/01/18/education/mideast-tensions-are-getting-personal-on-campus-at-columbia.html">cancelling classes</a> so that his students can attend anti-Israel rallies.

When Iranian dictator Mahmoud Ahmadinejad spoke at Columbia, Dabashi was one of his most vocal defenders against fellow professors. <a href="https://www.nysun.com/new-york/columbia-professor-calls-bollinger-white/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Writing</a> for an Egyptian newspaper, Dabashi accused Ahmadinejad’s critics of racism, claiming “the most ridiculous clichés of the neocon propaganda machinery, wrapped in the missionary position of a white racist supremacist carrying the heavy burden of civilizing the world.”

In 2018, Dabashi received criticism for a now-deleted <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=10484" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Facebook post</a> in which he accused the Women’s March of being “deeply infiltrated” by “Zionists”, who want to hijack the organization to benefit Israel.
“The Woman’s (sic) March has now emerged as a major movement in the US and of course the Zionists have deeply infiltrated it the way they infiltrated the Civil rights Movement of the 1960s and sought to twist it to the advantage of Israel.”

<a href="https://directory.columbia.edu/people/uni?code=jbc2167">James Comey</a>–the former FBI director best known for directing the Russia investigation against President Trump– is now a lecturer at Columbia University <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/12/02/ex-fbi-director-james-comey-to-teach-at-columbia-law-school/">for the Spring 2021 semester</a>. Comey’s course is titled “Lawyers and Leaders.”  The <a href="https://reuben-mark.law.columbia.edu/content/reuben-mark-initiative-announces-spring-2021-leaders-residence">university’s website</a> writes that Comey’s experiences as a federal prosecutor and FBI director “represents a broadening of the Mark Initiative’s focus to include leadership of major public institutions, complementing existing offerings relating to corporations and law firms.”

In 2016 under Comey’s leadership, the FBI opened an investigation to determine whether the Trump campaign had colluded with the Russian government to defeat his opposing  Presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton. It is important to note that Special Counsel Robert Muller <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/no-collusion-attorney-general-william-barr-emily-zanotti">later determined that there was no evidence against President Trump.</a>

Much of the underlying information that formed the basis of the investigation was provided by a former-British spy, Christopher Steele– known as the “Steele Dossier.” <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/09/steeles-dossier-source-was-a-suspected-russian-spy/">Steele relied on a series of rumors from a sole source that was later determined to be a suspected Russian spy</a>. Members of Comey’s own <a href="https://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/442944-fbis-steele-story-falls-apart-false-intel-and-media-contacts-were-flagged">FBI flagged the allegations in the dossier as false and were</a> ignored. This information was eventually used to obtain surveillance warrants for individuals involved with the Trump campaign. Despite being fired by the FBI for misconduct, <a href="https://thehill.com/hilltv/rising/400810-opinion-how-a-senior-justice-official-helped-dems-on-trump-russia-case">Steele was still used as a source–with Bruce Ohr serving as his conduit to ferry information to the Bureau</a>.

Once Trump assumed office, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/05/11/why-did-obama-tell-the-fbi-to-hide-its-activities-from-the-trump-administration/">Comey withheld evidence from the Trump Administration</a> about his investigation. The FBI had briefed President Trump’s campaign regarding Russian interference into the election, but failed to disclose that members of the campaign were the subject of the investigation itself.

Comey played a pivotal role in the perjury trap that resulted in the firing and prosecution of General Michael Flynn. Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates testified that <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/08/05/sally-yates-comey-went-rogue-in-launching-perjury-trap-on-flynn/">Comey “went rogue” in his pursuit to prosecute Flynn</a>.

An Inspector General’s Report later <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/04/02/latest-inspector-general-report-slams-comeys-fbi-for-massive-failures-to-document-fisa-claims/">excoriated Comey for the abuses that were committed under his leadership</a>. When questioned in a congressional hearing, Comey claimed that he<a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/30/comey-its-not-my-job-to-make-sure-fisa-applications-are-accurate/"> bore no responsibility to ensure whether or not the information in the warrants were accurate</a> and could <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/10/01/supercut-james-comey-doesnt-recall-anything-about-anything/">remember little else about the investigation that he oversaw</a>.

Comey was also cited by the Department of Justice for <a href="https://www.reuters.com/article/us-trump-russia-comey/doj-declines-to-prosecute-comey-despite-finding-that-he-leaked-info-idUSKCN1VJ1UO">improperly leaking sensitive information to the press</a>.

<a href="https://law.ucla.edu/faculty/faculty-profiles/kimberle-w-crenshaw">Dr. Kimberlé Crenshaw</a> is a Professor of Law and the Promise Institute Chair in Human Rights at the <a href="https://www.ucla.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA)</a>. She also teaches law as a professor at the <a href="https://www.law.columbia.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Columbia School of Law</a>.

Dr. Crenshaw is best recognized as a founding scholar of critical race theory and intersectionality. She has continued to make significant contributions to each field throughout her career. Both concepts have been widely adopted by the radical left as the basis for their activism and movements.

Dr. Crenshaw <a href="https://www.jstor.org/stable/1229039?read-now=1&amp;refreqid=excelsior%3Ad80f43d375e3f40179924f768317a237&amp;seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents" target="_blank" rel="noopener">first defined intersectionality in a landmark paper published for the Stanford Law Review, titled, “Mapping the Margins.</a>” In it, she praises identity politics as necessary to the lived experiences of American minorities.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1601 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-09-21T154303.317-e1632264218191-1024x378.png" alt="" width="580" height="214" />

However, Dr. Crenshaw then comments that identity politics does not go nearly far enough, countering that intersectionality is needed to successfully combat what she alleges is the systemic oppression minorities face in America.

Intersectionality is used by activists and academics to depict racial and sexual oppression as interconnected amongst various minority groups. For example in “Mapping the Margins,” Dr. Crenshaw claims that a black woman would suffer from both systemic racism and sexism in America. She further characterizes the theory as the link between <a href="https://newdiscourses.com/2021/03/forging-woke-one-ring-kimberle-crenshaws-mapping-margins/">contemporary politics and postmodernism</a>. Academic James Lindsay describes <a href="https://newdiscourses.com/2021/03/forging-woke-one-ring-kimberle-crenshaws-mapping-margins/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">intersectionality as the “birthplace of wokeness.”</a>

Much of intersectionality’s academic framework was used by Dr. Crenshaw to develop concepts of critical race theory. She drew additional inspiration from <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/society/2020/nov/12/kimberle-crenshaw-the-woman-who-revolutionised-feminism-and-landed-at-the-heart-of-the-culture-wars" target="_blank" rel="noopener">critical legal studies, which, like critical race theory, posits that no American law can truly be neutral or impartial.</a>

Ben Shapiro defines critical race theory—also referred to as critical theory—in an article for Breitbart <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2012/03/11/what-is-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">as an intellectual branch of Marxism that alleges American society and all of its founding institutions are infected with white supremacy</a>. Furthermore, proponents of critical race theory believe that people should take proactive steps to dismantle these institutions in the name of equity, which is also referred to as being “anti-racist.”

Dr. Crenshaw herself further defined the concept in an appearance on MSNBC in July of 2021, She characterized her theory as a method to understand how racial inequality is produced—or acts as a “conduit”—from laws, institutions, and historical oppression, all of which are referenced interchangeably with white supremacy. The full video may be viewed below.

&nbsp;

One such institution that Dr. Crenshaw targets are police departments and policing as a whole. In a <a href="https://mobile.twitter.com/sandylocks/status/1306271685625049089?lang=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tweet from September 2020</a>, she demanded that all police departments be defunded, a move deemed necessary for the full dismantlement of “white nationalism.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
The call to <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/DefundThePolice?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">#DefundThePolice</a> should be a mandate to dismantle the hyper-militaristic, racist functions of the police as the coercive power of white nationalism.
Defunding the police needs to be a call for the de-weaponizing of white supremacy. <a href="https://t.co/rg0bdzImQn" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://t.co/rg0bdzImQn</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

&nbsp;

Crenshaw’s work and activism have been instrumental to school districts adopting critical race theory into their curriculums. One district in Illinois allegedly <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/lawsuit-illinois-school-district-forced-students-on-privilege-walks-compared-whiteness-to-the-devil" target="_blank" rel="noopener">segregated students by race during a “privilege walk</a>” and compared “whiteness” to the devil during class lessons. Another school district in Buffalo, New York taught students that<a href="https://www.city-journal.org/buffalo-public-schools-critical-race-theory-curriculum" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> America is, “built on racism,” and all Americans, “have an implicit racial bias.</a>”

Dr. Crensaw’s work has spawned other prominent critical race theorists like Dr. Nikole Hannah-Jones, author of the 1619 Project. She has described <a href="https://news.columbia.edu/news/what-does-intersectionality-mean-2021-kimberle-crenshaws-podcast-must-listen-way-learn" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Jones work as “phenomenal” to the rethinking of the American founding</a>.

Dr. Jones <a href="https://reason.com/2020/09/23/1619-project-nikole-hannah-jones-1776-founding-race-new-york-times/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claims</a> that 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. <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/03/14/new-york-times-corrects-the-1619-project-but-its-still-a-giant-lie/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Though now retracted for numerous false claims</a>, the documents have now been <a href="https://dc.medill.northwestern.edu/blog/2020/07/21/the-1619-project-curriculum-taught-in-over-4500-schools-frederick-county-public-schools-has-the-option/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">added to the curriculum of 4,500 schools across the country</a>.

Despite evidence to the contrary, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/7-lying-media-outlets-claiming-crt-isnt-being-taught-in-public-schools" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a number of pundits on the left claim that critical race theory isn’t being taught in schools</a>. However, Dr. Crenshaw herself has written that the theory may serve as a <a href="https://twitter.com/realchrisrufo/status/1417313212207271936?s=27" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“catch-all” for race-based scholarship</a>.

Dr. Kendall Thomas is a <a href="https://www.law.columbia.edu/faculty/kendall-thomas" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nash Professor of Law</a> at Columbia University. His areas of study include Family, Gender, &amp; Sexuality and Social Justice &amp; Human Rights. Dr. Thomas is the co-founder and director of the Center for the Study of Law and Culture at Columbia University, and he is co-editor of <a href="https://scholarship.law.columbia.edu/books/101/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Critical Race Theory: The Key Writings That Founded the Movement</a> with fellow Professor Watchlist professors Dr. <a href="https://professorwatchlist.org/professor/crenshaw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kimberlé Crenshaw</a> and Dr. <a href="https://professorwatchlist.org/professor/garypellar" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gary Pellar</a>. In his free time, he is a professional jazz vocalist.

When Dr. Thomas isn’t teaching in the law classroom or singing jazz music, he can be found vehemently supporting critical race theory. <a href="https://www.hawaiipublicradio.org/local-news/2021-06-01/critical-race-theory-for-k-12-graders" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In a radio clip for Hawaii Public Radio</a>, Dr. Thomas discussed his beliefs about critical race theory in the classroom. In his opinion, critical race theory should be taught to children, including K-12 classrooms. He claims that the American Revolution of 1776 isn’t comprehensive of our country’s history, and we need to be teaching about the slavery that occured in 1619 to really understand this country.

During <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/what-critical-race-theory-why-do-some-want-ban-1587389" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a conversation with a journalist at Newsweek</a>, Dr. Thomas discusses critical race theory and why some are against it. Dr. Thomas alleges that conservatives and others are “over-the-top attacking” critical race theory despite having no idea what CRT actually is. He asserts that conservatives want to shut down critical race theory so they won’t “lose the national debate… about institutional racism.”

He argues that if you care about the future of our democratic republic, you need to support the teachings and learning that CRT stands for. Dr. Thomas states that critical race theory is a body of writing and method of research about the meaning of race both today and historically.

Dr. Thomas often takes to Twitter to discuss critical race theory, politics, and his disdain for conservatives. <a href="https://twitter.com/Ill_Legitimacy/status/1326013415178039302" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In one tweet</a>, he accused conservatives of weaponizing the government in attempts to undo the 2020 presidential election results.

<a href="https://gca.columbia.edu/people/flores-forbes" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mr. Flores Forbes</a> is an Associate Vice President for Community Affairs at Columbia University. Mr. Flores is a convicted murderer who served as Huey Newton’s enforcer in the Black Panther Party.

The organization was<a href="https://www.history.com/topics/civil-rights-movement/black-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> formed by black nationalists, Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale, in 1966 as the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense.</a> The group’s early activities included monitoring police and social programs for urban communities.

<a href="http://web.stanford.edu/~ccarson/articles/am_left.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The party was explicitly organized along</a> Marxist-Leninist lines. Members were <a href="https://archives.frontpagemag.com/fpm/reflections-panthers-john-perazzo/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">required to read communist texts such as Mao Zedong’s, Red Book and Che Guevara</a>. Bobby Seale was known to <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/whitewashing-the-black-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fondly quote Soviet Dictator, Joseph Stalin</a>.

Despite their alleged philanthropy, the Panthers used their community programs–dubbed survival programs—as a front for criminal activity. David Horowitz—who worked for the Panthers at the time—observed the Panthers' <a href="https://archives.frontpagemag.com/fpm/pbs-propaganda-machine-black-panther-killers-frontpagemagcom/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">embezzling and illegal trafficking operations based out of the Oakland Community Center.</a>

The Panthers were feared for their mob-like enforcement and brutality. Members were <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/whitewashing-the-black-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">known to pour boiling water over suspected </a>police informants and fire-bomb the cars of journalists. Co-founder, Huey Newton, was convicted—which was later overturned by an appellate court—and spent time in prison for the murder of police officer, John Frey. He is further <a href="https://www.salon.com/1999/12/13/betty/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">suspected to have taken part in multiple murders</a> committed by the Panthers.

Known as Newton’s “internal enforcer”, Mr. Forbes carried out at least one execution on behalf of his boss. <a href="https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/2020/12/radical-son-frontpagemagcom/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Flores was ordered to perform a hit against Crystal Gray</a>, who had witnessed Newton murder a prostitute—Kathleen Smith—and was set to testify in his trial.

However, Mr. Forbes and the other assassins mistakenly arrived at the address of a fellow Panther, who returned fire and injured Mr. Forbes before he was killed. Following a nationwide manhunt, Mr. Forbes turned himself in, where he was convicted and spent 5 years in prison for second-degree murder.

Mr. Forbes is also suspected in the murder of Betty Van Patter. As a book-maker for the Panthers, Patter <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20160110093526/http://www.insidebayarea.com/ci_5016589" target="_blank" rel="noopener">was a first-hand witness to the organization’s criminal activity and threatened to expose the Panthers to the press</a>. After missing for five weeks, her body was recovered in the San Francisco Bay.

Although Mr. Forbes is believed by Patter’s daughter and the <a href="https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/2020/12/radical-son-frontpagemagcom/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">FBI to be responsible for her killing</a>, no arrests were made. Furthermore, the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20180330211353/http://fbidocs.com/betty-van-patter" target="_blank" rel="noopener">FBI destroyed all files relating to Patter in 2009</a>, so the apparent murder will remain unsolved. The Black Panther party dissolved in 1984 and Huey Newton was murdered in 1989. Mr. Forbes went on to author a book about his time in the Panthers—titled, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Will-You-Die-Me-Panther/dp/0743482689" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Will You Die with Me?</a>— and <a href="https://news.columbia.edu/news/cu-people-flores-forbes-urban-planner" target="_blank" rel="noopener">has worked at Columbia since 2007</a>.

<a href="https://www.tc.columbia.edu/faculty/kf2119/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Karen Froud</a> is an Associate Professor of Neuroscience and Education at the Teachers College of Columbia University in New York City.

In a letter to colleagues, Dr. Froud urged them to boycott Israel and its universities, accusing both of contributing to apartheid-like conditions in the Palestinian territories.

Her remarks were spurred by the comments of another colleague, Gerry Leisman, who asked fellow scientists to continue their reviews for his research. Dr. Talisman is a neuroscientist at the University of Haifa in Israel.

“Hi, 

I am the guest editor of a special issue of the Journal Brain Sciences and we are producing a special issue of the journal entitled, “The Brain Goes to School, details for which can be found at the following link:

https://www.mdpi.com/.../brai.../special_issues/brain_school

We are recruiting both reviews and results of experimental studies that related to human learning, its difficulties, remediation strategies, models, cognitive science, cognitive neuropsychology all essentially attempting to translate 150 years of cognitive neuroscience into classroom Applications [sic].” 

&nbsp;

In her reply, Dr. Froud urges her colleagues to refuse the request <a href="https://elderofziyon.blogspot.com/2022/03/columbia-bds-professor-little-unclear.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">on the grounds that the University of Haifa is an “apartheid institution,” and adhere to the demands of the “Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions Movement</a>.”

“Dear colleagues - 

I urge you to consider this request in light of the Boycotts, Divestments, and Sanctions Movement for freedom and justice in Palestine. Like many/most academic institutions in Israel, Haifa University is an apartheid institution. 

<a href="https://bdsmovement.net/tags/haifa-university" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://bdsmovement.net/tags/haifa-university</a>

I recognize that many of you work within this institution and hope you are also doing your part for academic freedom.

Warm wishes for a peaceful and just world - which after all is where educational neuroscience as a field points us.

&nbsp;

BDS—short for Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions—supporters embrace the following three tenets as a feature of the campaign:

- Boycotting all goods that originate from the state of Israel;

- Divesting all funds (private or public) that are allocated to Israel; and

- Placing sanctions exclusively on Israel.

Mr. Omar Barghouti, a co-founder of the BDS movement, admits that the ultimate outcome of these steps is the <a href="https://twitter.com/StandWithUs/status/1267561561565958144" target="_blank" rel="noopener">dismantlement of the state of Israel</a>.

Dr. Love is the founder of the Abolitionist Teaching Network (ATN) whose goal is to provide educators with the resources for abolitionist teaching, which Dr. Love characterizes <a href="https://www.sesp.northwestern.edu/news-center/news/2021/01/abolitionist-teaching-a-conversation-with-bettina-l-love.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">as “calling out” fellow teachers who are racist, homophobic, or Islamophobic.”</a>

ATN’s own documents encourage abolitionist teachers to promote the “liberation” of people of color and “embody the spirit” of the Black Lives Matter movement.

<img class="size-full wp-image-2028 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Screen-Shot-2022-03-30-at-3.32.03-PM-1.png" alt="" width="570" height="716" />

The resource instructs educators to demand the following from their school districts:

- Hire more black, brown, and indigenous teachers,

- Hire abolitionist teachers,

- Free anti-racist therapy for white educators,

- Reduce class sizes for the benefit of black, brown, and indigenous children,

- Remove any and all police officers from schools,

- Reparations for minority children,

- Teaching standards that promote “Black, Brown, and Indigenous liberation.”

The document further accuses schools of the “spirit murder” of minority studies via disciplinary practices. Dr. Love uses this phrase in a separate article <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210106043843/https://www.edweek.org/leadership/opinion-how-schools-are-spirit-murdering-black-and-brown-students/2019/05" target="_blank" rel="noopener">to accuse white educators of levying racist punishments to humiliate and “destroy” their students of color.</a>

The article appeared in EducationWeekly where Dr. Love contributes articles that are full of racial invectives and diatribes. One claims that <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20211011180846/https://www.edweek.org/leadership/opinion-grit-is-in-our-dna-why-teaching-grit-is-inherently-anti-black/2019/02" target="_blank" rel="noopener">teaching students to work hard is racist.</a> Her article—<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210722025254/https://www.edweek.org/teaching-learning/opinion-dear-white-teachers-you-cant-love-your-black-students-if-you-dont-know-them/2019/03" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dear White Teachers: You Can’t Love Your Black Students If You Don’t Know them</a>—accuses white teachers of being incapable of teaching black students.

Dr. Love's work is promoted and incorporated into school districts across the country. <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/critical-race-theory-activist-education-department-connections" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Department of Education under the Biden administration once listed ATN and Dr. Love’s work as resources</a>.

The study utilizes the United Nations' definition of hate speech, which states, “Cases of discriminatory language with reference to a person or a group on the basis of their religion, ethnicity, nationality, race, color, descent, gender or other identity factors.” 

The paper alleges that hate speech increases, regardless of income bracket or belief system, when the temperature rises above 86 degrees or falls beneath 54 degrees Fahrenheit. The study further states that hateful posts on Twitter decrease when the temperature is between 59 degrees to 65 degrees Fahrenheit. 

Dr. Levermann states that “even in high-income areas where people may have air conditioning, an increase in hate speech was seen on ‘extremely hot days.’” Dr. Leverman concludes by claiming, “Protecting our climate from excessive global warming is also critical to our mental health.”

Hillary Rodham Clinton is Columbia University’s professor of practice in the School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA). A <a href="https://www.sipa.columbia.edu/news/secretary-hillary-rodham-clinton-will-join-sipa-faculty" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> from the dean of SIPA says Clinton is “now bringing her leadership and expertise to SIPA…to prepare the next generation of global policy leaders…”

On January 5, 2023, <a href="https://news.columbia.edu/news/hillary-rodham-clinton-join-columbia-community" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Columbia News announced</a> that Clinton “will help lead a major SIPA effort to convene outstanding policy thinkers from around the world to develop innovative policy solutions.” The publication also says she will help college executives “explore the fundamental questions on how to advance efforts to renew democracy and foster effective engagements with women and youth in [the United States] and around the world."

Columbia University <a href="https://www.sipa.columbia.edu/situationroom">announced</a> on March 22 that Clinton will be co-teaching a foreign policy course with Dean Keren Yarhi-Milo titled "Inside the Situation Room." The university stated that the goal of the course is: 
"[T]o give students a holistic understanding of the many facets of foreign policy decision-making. As future participants in the policy process, this course will provide vital background that they can draw on should they, too, find themselves facing high-pressure decisions with implications for national security and global stability. It will also enhance their ability to counsel intelligence officers, military leaders, advisors, or other government officials by improving their ability to anticipate other actors' actions, perceptions, and motivation."
Students at Columbia University must apply in order to take the course. 

Accompanying the course announcement is a skit featuring Clinton and Yarhi-Milo (see video below). In the skit, the co-teachers talk about basic details of the course after scenes are shown of students reacting to the news that Clinton “is running again,” (that is, running a new course). Clinton says that she will cover “what it was actually like in the [situation] room during the Bin-Laden Raid, the Iran Sanctions, the Gaza Cease Fire, [and] you name it.”

EARLY YEARS
Clinton—who graduated in 1969 from Wellesley College as Hillary Rodham—allegedly wrote her senior thesis on political activist and grassroots strategist Sal Alinski. In 1972, he <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Rules-Radicals-Practical-Primer-Realistic/dp/0679721134/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1FU7H88O8OXHA&amp;keywords=rules+for+radicals+by+saul+d.+alinsky&amp;qid=1673991341&amp;sprefix=rules+for+%2Caps%2C203&amp;sr=8-1&amp;asin=0679721134&amp;revisionId=&amp;format=4&amp;depth=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">authored</a> “Rules for Radicals: A Pragmatic Primer for Realist Radicals,” which centers on disrupting societies through revolutionary community organizing. Alinski infamously dedicated the volume of writing to the fallen angel and nemesis of God, Lucifer. Alinski is rumored to be Clinton’s “mentor” and a major influence on her flux from a stalwart Republican to a progressive Democrat by graduation. 

Although Clinton’s thesis is referenced in multiple media publications, the full composition is neither accessible through online archives nor searchable on her <a href="https://www.wellesley.edu/news/journalists/hillary-rodham-clinton" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Wellesley alumni profile</a>. According to <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/id/wbna17388372" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBC News</a>, the academic paper is “available to anyone who visits the archive room of the prestigious women’s college outside Boston.”

Throughout her time at Wellesley, Clinton served as the head of Wellesley’s Young Republicans Club from 1966-67; she also pursued a research assistant internship for the House Republican Conference during the summer of 1968 in D.C. A <a href="https://www.npr.org/sections/itsallpolitics/2015/04/11/395302391/5-things-you-should-know-about-hillary-clinton" target="_blank" rel="noopener">National Public Radio</a> (NPR) article says, “In high school [Clinton]...considered herself a Republican and even became a <a href="https://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/minute/barry_goldwater_of_arizona.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Goldwater</a> Girl.” NPR included a quote from Clinton’s book “Living History”:

“‘My ninth-grade history teacher…encouraged me to read Senator Barry Goldwater’s book, The Conscience of a Conservative. That inspired me to write my term paper on the American conservative movement…I liked Senator Goldwater because he was a rugged individualist who swam against the political tide.’”

Clinton earned a Juris Doctorate from Yale Law School in 1973, joined the University of Arkansas Law School faculty in 1975, and was appointed by President Jimmy Carter as a member of the board of the Legal Services Corporation in 1978. Clinton’s law career includes the controversial case of a 12-year-old sexual abuse survivor Kathy Shelton. Clinton, who served as legal counsel for rapist Thomas Alfred Taylor, worked to shorten his prison sentence. 

According to <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3729466/Child-rape-victim-comes-forward-time-40-years-call-Hillary-Clinton-liar-defended-rapist-smearing-blocking-evidence-callously-laughing-knew-guilty.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">DailyMail</a>, “One of Clinton’s first moves was to raise questions about the credibility of the…victim. In a July 18, 1975 affidavit, Clinton asked the court to order Shelton to undergo a psychiatric examination from a doctor selected by Taylor’s legal team.” Clinton accused Shelton of wanting attention from older men and subjected her to intense psychological interrogations. Clinton negotiated a plea deal and Taylor spent one year in county jail.

SECRETARY OF STATE
From 2009-2013, Clinton served as Secretary of State in the Obama administration. During this time, she used private email servers instead of State Department accounts to send classified, sensitive information. According to a <a href="https://www.fbi.gov/news/press-releases/press-releases/statement-by-fbi-director-james-b-comey-on-the-investigation-of-secretary-hillary-clinton2019s-use-of-a-personal-e-mail-system" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> released by the FBI, “Secretary Clinton used several different servers and administrators of those servers during her four years at the State Department, and used numerous mobile devices to view and send e-mail on that personal domain.” 

The FBI goes further into detail on thousands of work-related emails that Clinton withheld, several of which included highly sensitive information on unclassified personal servers. The FBI also discovered Clinton was using her personal email in and out of the country.

In 2016, <a href="https://www.investors.com/politics/editorials/clinton-foundation-donations/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Investors Business Daily</a> reported that Clinton and her organization, the Clinton Foundation, were also undergoing an FBI investigation for violating “tax laws by converting donations into personal or political use.” An annual report (below) shows donations plummeting when Clinton was not running for a public office, and sharp increases when she ran for President of the United States. After Clinton lost the election, donations fell by 88%.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-2800 size-full" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Screen-Shot-2023-01-25-at-11.49.44-AM.png" alt="" width="515" height="324" />

The Clintons, as well as advocates for the foundation, defended the organization’s reputation insisting that “the foundation was doing great work for mankind.” According to the <a href="https://observer.com/2016/08/the-six-clinton-foundation-scandals-everyone-needs-to-know/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Observer</a>, foreign countries such as “Australia, Germany, the United Arab Emirates, and a Canadian government agency…all donated to the Clinton Foundation.” <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/21/us/politics/hillary-clinton-presidential-campaign-charity.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The New York Times</a> also reported that Saudi Arabia, a country that heavily restricts the rights of women, donated more than $10 million to the foundation during Hillary’s <a href="https://www.hillaryclinton.com/issues/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2016 Presidential Campaign</a>.

RUSSIAGATE
Clinton spent her time in public office leveraging several foreign connections. During her time as First Lady, from 1993-2001, Clinton <a href="https://spectator.org/chinagate-and-the-clintons/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">solicited foreign donations to the Democratic National Committee</a> (DNC) from businessmen with connections to the Chinese Communist Party. The scandal would eventually be known as “Chinagate.” 

While serving as Secretary of State, Clinton approved the sale of <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2017/10/23/7-uranium-one-facts-every-american-should-know/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">20% of U.S. uranium reserves</a> to a Russian company. The financial backers of the venture funneled $145 million to the Clinton Foundation before the sale. Bill Clinton was paid $500,000 for a speech in Moscow the same month the deal was finalized.  

In October 2016, Clinton released a statement via advisor Jake Sullivan—who was later appointed as <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/biden-jake-sullivan-national-security-adviser/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">National Security Advisor</a> to Joe Biden— accusing Donald Trump of coordinating with Vladimir Putin to hack the DNC’s servers and release sensitive information. She alleged this was accomplished through a backchannel to the Kremlin through Alfa Bank.

BENGHAZI
On September 11, 2012, four Americans, including Ambassador Chris Stevens, were <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/world/what-happened-during-after-benghazi-attack-2012" target="_blank" rel="noopener">killed during an attack</a> on an American diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya. The <a href="https://www.congress.gov/113/crpt/srpt134/CRPT-113srpt134.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Senate Select Committee’s Benghazi Report</a> shows Clinton ignored the “ample strategic warning that [the] security situation in eastern Libya was deteriorating and that U.S. facilities and personnel were at risk in Benghazi.” 

Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/286438-obstruction-lies-and-dishonor-hillarys-benghazi-legacy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">testified that he had identified</a> “three distinct capabilities” to deploy to Benghazi by 6 pm and had “issued the order to deploy the identified assets” by 7 pm. However, at 7:30 pm, a “Deputies Meeting” was convened in the White House. The meeting featured Clinton and deputies from State, the Pentagon, and the White House, while both the President and Secretary of Defense were absent. 

During this meeting, Clinton obstructed the direct order from the President, noting that her “State department emphasized any deployment of U.S. Forces into Libya needed approval from the Government of Libya.” 

The Americans in Benghazi were ultimately rescued by a group of former Gaddafi loyalists not affiliated with the Libyan government while American forces were in a “stand-by posture” awaiting the resolution of Secretary Clinton’s obstruction.  After the attacks, Secretary Clinton <a href="https://www.judicialwatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/Benghazi-Ops-Alert-FOIA-Page-10-11.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">issued an official statement</a>, claiming the assault may have been in “a response to inflammatory material posted on the Internet.” 

However, <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2015/03/03/new-documents-blow-lid-off-obamaclinton-benghazi-scandal/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">emails uncovered through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request</a> by Judicial Watch show that Clinton’s top three staff members were forwarded an email on September 11, 2012, at 6:06 PM with the subject line “Update 2: Ansar al-Sharia Claims Responsibility for Benghazi Attack (SBU).” The email, from State Department Foreign Service Officer Lawrence Randolph, read: “(SBU) Embassy Tripoli reports the group claimed responsibility on Facebook and Twitter and call for an attack on Embassy Tripoli.” Despite knowing this, Clinton and other government officials stuck to the theory that the attacks were in response to a YouTube video.

Clinton will assume the position with Columbia University on February 1, 2023.

<a href="https://www.mabdou.net/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mohamed Abdou</a> (according to his <a href="https://www.mei.columbia.edu/scholars-and-fellows/mohamed-abdou" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Columbia University profile</a>) is “a North African-Egyptian Muslim anarchist interdisciplinary activist-scholar of Indigenous, Black, critical race, and Islamic studies, as well as gender, sexuality, abolition, and decolonization with extensive fieldwork experience in the Middle East-North Africa, Asia, and Turtle Island.”

In 2020, Abdou wrote an article for <a href="https://roarmag.org/essays/let-empire-collapse-why-we-need-a-decolonial-revolution/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ROAR</a> titled “Let Empire collapse: why we need a decolonial revolution.” He recommends that leftists support political alternatives to that of the current “liberal-progressive.” The thesis of the article reads:
“Repatriating Indigenous land and organizing anti-state Indigenous-Black-POC Power alternatives is better than pouring resources into the liberal-progressive vote.”
Abdou addressed his view of the origin of the U.S. and how that relates to the idea of “manifest destiny”:
“Need history remind us, the US was founded on the violent Euro-Christian crusading doctrine of Manifest Destiny and the Doctrine of Discovery. As Patrick Wolfe<a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14623520601056240" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> notes</a>, 1492 is ‘not an event.’ Rather, it established a structure with a religious character known as ‘conquistador settler-colonialism’ as Tiffany Lethabo-King <a href="https://www.dukeupress.edu/the-black-shoals" target="_blank" rel="noopener">argues</a> and many other Indigenous scholar-activists like<a href="http://static1.squarespace.com/static/557744ffe4b013bae3b7af63/t/570d362c9f7266ca3ced2285/1460483648296/Before_Dispossession_Or_Surviving_It_by.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Eve Tuck</a> and<a href="https://www.academia.edu/43811591/Red_Pedagogy_Native_American_Social_and_Political_Thought_Sandy_Grande" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Sandy Grande</a> have noted.”
He then claims that white supremacy influences both the conservative and leftist political movements:
“While white supremacist ideologies and assumptions inform conservative right-wing parties and positions, the greater danger is how they disguise themselves within (neo)liberal progressive and even leftist positions. Some perceive Heineken and Johnnie Walker-sponsored pride parades and Women’s Marches as resistance, despite the fact that these movements are often premised on <a href="https://www.academia.edu/38647128/Ph_D_Thesis_Islam_and_Queer_Muslims_Identity_and_Sexuality_in_the_Contemporary_CH2?email_work_card=title" target="_blank" rel="noopener">bleached</a> notions of non-violence, gay marriage, coming-out narratives, pride and shame.”
Towards the conclusion of the article, Abdou mentions what “decolonization” means to him”:
“Decolonization means recognizing that struggles from ‘Jerusalem to the Grand River are one.’ That there is no freeing Palestine without freeing Indigenous and Black peoples in the heart of US Empire because all our fires are interconnected.”
“As an antidote, decolonization necessitates building non-statist, anti-authoritarian, land-based spiritual alternatives and being able to defend them tactically, with arms if need be. Decolonization means abolishing the punitive prison-judicial and imperialist-military industrial complexes and replacing them with transformative and not just restorative justice. Only the former addresses the underlying state structure of settler-colonialism that frames abolition and Indigenous sovereignty while the latter does not.”
During a U.S. Congressional hearing on campus anti-semitism, Columbia University President Nemat “Minouche” Shafik was <a href="https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/columbia-president-shafik-antisemitism-israel-hamas-congress/5330062/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">asked</a> about Abdou’s comments in response to the Hamas attack on Israel on October 7, 2023. Abdou had expressed support for Hamas at that time and has since faced repercussions for such support. According to <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13349149/Im-Hamas-Hezbollah-professor-publicly-backed-Islamic-jihad-repeatedly-Oct-7-invasion-Israel-hired-teach-Columbia-House-speaker-Mike-Johnson-calls-President-Shafik-resign.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Daily Mail</a>, Abdou wrote the following on Facebook on October 11, 2024:

“I'm with the muqawamah (the resistance) be it Hamas and Hezbollah and Islamic Jihad but up to a point - given ultimate differences over our ethical political commitments; that's the difference between a strategy and tactic too.”
In January, Abdou <a href="https://canarymission.org/professor/Mohamed_Abdou" target="_blank" rel="noopener">stated</a> “I might be with Hamas and support the resistance, absolutely.”

Shafik told the U.S. House Hearing Committee that Abdou has been terminated and that he “is grading his students’ papers and will never teach at Columbia again.” 

Abdou has been involved in a pro-Palestinain protest at Columbia University, where protesters have established an <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article/ayfkm-columbia-president-told-congress-prof-terminated-now-appears-holding-class-inside-columbias-gates-among-pro-hamas-camp/25277" target="_blank" rel="noopener">encampment</a> that has caused inconvenience to university members (see tweet below).

<a href="https://history.columbia.edu/person/brown-christopher/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Christopher Brown</a> is a Professor of History at Columbia University. According to his university profile, Brown’s “current research centers on the history of European experience on the African coast at the height of the Atlantic slave trade, and continues early commitments to the rise and fall of slavery in the British Empire.”

Brown was among <a href="https://bwog.com/2024/04/student-workers-and-faculty-hold-walkouts-to-demand-amnesty-for-students-and-faculty/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">several professors</a> who spoke in favor of the ongoing pro-Palestine protests at the university, including a tent encampment on campus. The protests — which have included a call for the university to divest funds from Israel — are causing considerable inconvenience to university members on campus who are not involved in the protest. Brown’s speech was captured on video and posted on X.

“Thursday, April 18, 2024, will be remembered as a shameful day in Coloumbia’s history,” Brown began his speech. 

The professor called Columbia University President Minouche Shafik’s decision to employ “riot police” at the university in light of the protests “unprecedented, unjustified, disproportionate, divisive, and dangerous.”
“The NYPD does not belong on this campus except for [inaudible]. That show of force was a sign of weakness.”
Toward the close of his speech, Brown addressed the importance of Columbia University and how that is being undermined by the university’s current leadership: 
“The United States has the greatest colleges and universities in the world and that’s why people come from around the world to study here, research here, and to teach here. That’s our inheritance, universities like this one and we would be fools not to defend it in every quarter from those who do not believe in the academic in the pursuit of academic excellence.”
He finished his speech with the following exclamation, calling for Shafik’s resignment:
 “She has forfeited the privilege to lead this great university.”

<a href="https://mesaas.columbia.edu/faculty-directory/joseph-massad/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joseph Massad</a> is a professor of Modern Arab Politics and Intellectual History at Columbia University.

According to his university profile, Massad “has a particular interest in theories of identity and culture – including theories of nationalism, sexuality, race and religion.”

In response to October 2023 Hamas attacks on Israel, Massad wrote an article for <a href="https://electronicintifada.net/content/just-another-battle-or-palestinian-war-liberation/38661" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Electronic Intifada</a> titled “Just another battle or the Palestinian war of liberation?”

Massad opens his article with the following question:
“What can motorized paragliders do in the face of one of the most formidable militaries in the world?”
He answers that question in the subsequent paragraph:
“Apparently much in the hands of an innovative Palestinian resistance, which early on Saturday morning <a href="https://electronicintifada.net/content/hamas-fighters-gaza-storm-israel-capture-and-kill-soldiers/38631" target="_blank" rel="noopener">launched a surprise attack</a> on Israel by air, land and sea. Indeed as stunning videos show, these paragliders have become the air force of the Palestinian resistance.”
In a favorable tone toward Hamas, Massad addresses what he deems the “major achievement” of the “Palestinian resistance”:
“Perhaps the major achievement of the resistance in the temporary takeover of these settler-colonies is the death blow to any confidence that Israeli colonists had in their military and its ability to protect them.”
Regarding the “<a href="https://www.timesofisrael.com/thousands-flee-rocket-and-gunfire-at-all-night-desert-nature-party-dozens-missing/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">thousands of Israelis</a> [who] were fleeing through the desert on foot to escape the rockets and gunfire” Massad exclaims,
“In the interest of safeguarding their lives and their children’s future, the colonists’ [Israelis’] flight from these settlements may prove to be a permanent exodus. They [Israelis] may have finally realized that living on land stolen from another people [Palestinians] will never make them safe.”
Massad said he found “awesome… the scenes witnessed by millions of jubilant Arabs who spent the day watching the news, of Palestinian fighters from Gaza breaking through Israel’s prison fence or gliding over it by air.”

The article was concluded with the following observation for the future of the war:
“But as the ongoing war between the Israeli colonial army and the indigenous Palestinian resistance has only just begun, the days to come will surely be crucial in determining if this is the start of the Palestinian War of Liberation or yet another battle in the interminable struggle between the colonizer and the colonized.”
According to <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/international/news/a-columbia-professor-called-hamas-terror-attacks-awesome-and-astounding-in-an-article-a-petition-for-his-removal-has-passed-34000-signatures-/articleshow/104473320.cms" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Business Insider India</a>, a Columbia student started “an <a href="https://www.change.org/p/petition-for-the-immediate-removal-of-joseph-massad-from-columbia-s-faculty?recruiter=1319212248&amp;utm_campaign=signature_receipt&amp;utm_medium=twitter&amp;utm_source=share_petition" target="_blank" rel="noopener">online petitio</a>n” to remove Massad from the Columbia faculty.

<a href="https://www.law.columbia.edu/faculty/katherine-m-franke" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Katherine M. Franke</a> is the James L. Dohr Professor of Law at Columbia University (CU). Her specialty areas are “Gender and Sexuality Law” and “Racial Justice.” Her areas of study include, “Family, Gender, and Sexuality,” “Social Justice and Human Rights,” and “Legal History.”

According to Franke’s profile, she is the Director of the <a href="https://gender-sexuality.law.columbia.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Center for Gender &amp; Sexuality Law</a>. “She is also on the Executive Committees of Columbia’s Institute for the Study of Sexuality and Gender, and the <a href="https://palestine.mei.columbia.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Center for Palestine Studies</a>. She is among the nation’s leading scholars writing on law, sexuality, race, and religion drawing from feminist, queer, and critical race theory.”

The Center of Sexuality and Gender’s mission is “to formulate new approaches to complex issues facing gender and sexual justice movements.” The Center’s main page states:
“In Spring 2022, as part of Professor Katherine Franke’s Gender Justice class exam final, she invited students to offer newly-seated Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson advice on how ‘to sow the seeds for a new approach to reproductive rights.’”
During Justice Brown’s interview, she <a href="https://youtu.be/BWtGzJxiONU" target="_blank" rel="noopener">infamously said</a> she could not define what a woman is.

On social media, Franke has spoken disapprovingly of CU President Minouche Shafik while commending the student protests that erupted across CU’s campus.

“I actually said, ‘[M]any Israeli students who come to Columbia’s campus are coming right out of their military service and have been known to harass Palestinian and other students on our campus.”
Franke has also encouraged the general public to sign an open letter “making the point that identifying with the suffering of Gazans and historically contextualizing the current war in Israel/Gaza is not anti-Semitic.”

The open letter states, in part:
“As scholars who are committed to robust inquiry about the most challenging matters of our time, we feel compelled to respond to those who label our students anti-Semitic if they express empathy for the lives and dignity of Palestinians, and/or if they signed on to a <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeHe5p0in9g4h9xURoTx6NPn-v2rb-m7k6ZIm4YNGqOPRVsFQ/viewform">student-written statement</a> that situated the military action begun on October 7 within the larger context of the occupation of Palestine by Israel… 
“In our view, the student statement aims to recontextualize the events of October 7, 2023, pointing out that military operations and state violence did not begin that day, but rather it represented a military response by a people who had endured crushing and unrelenting state violence from an occupying power over many years.”
The letter goes on to state, “One could regard the events of October 7th as just one salvo in an ongoing war between an occupying state and the people it occupies or as an occupied people exercising a right to resist violent and illegal occupation.”

On April 22, 2024, Robbins wrote an <a href="https://www.lrb.co.uk/blog/2024/april/at-columbia" target="_blank" rel="noopener">opinion editorial</a> entitled “At Columbia,” commenting on Columbia University President Minouche Shafik’s response during her <a href="https://youtu.be/qLDpp2Ruxys" target="_blank" rel="noopener">congressional testimony.</a> Robbins wrote:
“When Minouche Shafik … testified before the House of Representatives on 17 April, she didn’t fall into the traps set a few months earlier for the presidents of Penn, MIT, and Harvard, two of whom are now gone … She presented herself as a relentless scourge of antisemitism. Her head will not fall – at least not as a result of congressional displeasure.
“There is some question, however, about her future at Columbia. First, because of her craven and embarrassing submission to the House [Representatives]. And second, because on the following day she brought the police in to demolish a student tent encampment protesting against the Israeli slaughter in Gaza.”
Robbins announced his publication on social media using the photo below.

In light of Robbin’s views, Jewish students reported feeling unsafe on Columbia’s campus and stated that they had to hide their ethnicity.

<a href="https://arts.columbia.edu/directory/munir-atalla" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Munir Atalla</a> is an Adjunct Assistant Professor of Film and Media Studies at Columbia University. According to his university profile, “Munir’s narrative work explores unique subcultures across continents and time with a journalistic eye for detail and nuance.”

<a href="https://canarymission.org/professor/Munir_Atalla" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Canary Mission</a> reported that Atalla “<a href="https://archive.ph/F3ArP" target="_blank" rel="noopener">celebrated</a> Hamas terrorist war crimes at an anti-Israel rally in <a href="https://archive.ph/F3ArP" target="_blank" rel="noopener">October 2023</a>. Atalla <a href="https://archive.ph/asjWX">co-organized</a> the rally as a member of the <a href="https://archive.ph/Di4Wp" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM)</a> chapter in New York, New York (<a href="https://www.instagram.com/nycpym/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PYM NYC</a>).”

According to <a href="https://www.news18.com/world/pro-israel-pro-palestine-demonstrations-erupt-in-new-york-after-hamas-attack-8608757.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">News 18</a>, Atalla made the following exclamation a day after the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack on Israel:
“What we saw yesterday was the people of Gaza breaking out of their open-air prison. It’s impossible to view the events of this week, without first understanding the context that the Israeli regime is founded on violence… it’s founded on the erasure and annihilation of Palestinians.”
At this time Atalla also stated, “We want to show the world that when Palestine rises up in resistance, the diaspora rises with it.”

According to the <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/04/23/us-news/columbia-professors-slammed-over-grotesque-rally-that-publicly-backed-ivy-league-schools-anti-israel-protests/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Post</a>, Munir Atalla was a participant in the “Gaza Solidarity Encampment” that took over Columbia University’s campus in April 2024. Atalla “was seen speaking with students inside the encampment” on April 23. 

On April 22, Atalla, along with several other faculty members, wrote and signed a <a href="https://www.columbiaspectator.com/opinion/2024/04/22/untenured-faculty-stand-in-solidarity-with-our-students/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">letter</a> in support of the protesters and against their treatment by the Columbia University administration during the pro-Palestinian demonstrations on campus. 

Addressing Columbia University students directly, the letter states: 
“Our message is simple: We stand with you in solidarity, we are appalled by what has been happening on our campus, and we want to help you reclaim your University.”
Concerning the protesters’ treatment by the New York Police Department and university administrators, the writers state the following in their defense: 
“Some of you have been arbitrarily suspended by your school, <a href="https://www.columbiaspectator.com/news/2024/04/18/shafik-authorizes-nypd-to-sweep-gaza-solidarity-encampment-officers-in-riot-gear-arrest-over-100/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">arrested and physically removed</a> from campus by the New York Police Department, told to leave your dorms, and surveilled and threatened by University administrators. Many more of you have learned about these disturbing actions, directly or by rumor, and wonder whether you will be targeted, too, for engaging in activism that the University supposedly prides itself on fostering, for protesting on the basis of your sincere moral and political views, or simply for holding those views.”
The writers claim that both students and faculty have “real authority” over campus events: 
“In the weeks and months ahead, we look forward to working alongside you to restore norms of shared governance at the University and to ensure that students and faculty alike have real authority over what happens on our campus, rather than simply being informed of decisions taken by small groups of administrators. We want to help you to take back the University.”
The letter concludes with the following statement in support of the protesting students: 
“Most of all, we want you to feel at home here. We deeply regret that so many of you do not feel that way any longer—or that you never did. We are committed to working to change the University so that you do.”

<a href="https://music.columbia.edu/bios/russell-orourke">Russell J. O’Rourke</a> is a Core Lecturer in Music Humanities at Columbia University. 

O’Rourke sent an email to his students after the New York Police Department was called to clear out the “Gaza Solidarity Encampment,” stating he was “appalled by the decisions of the administration” concerning the student protests. He also said he would accommodate students regarding the course and provide assistance to those students who have been evicted due to their actions while protesting (see image below).

<a href="https://arts.columbia.edu/profiles/susan-bernofsky" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Susan Bernofsky</a> is an Associate Professor of Writing and the Director of Literary Translation at the Columbia University School of Arts. 

Amid pro-Palestinian protest encampments and reports of antisemitic demonstrations on Coumbia’s campus, Bernofsky provided favorable commentary in <a href="https://www.thenation.com/article/activism/gaza-encampment-college-faculty-walkout-protest/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">an article entitled</a> “College Faculty Members Are Teaching a Lesson in Solidarity.” 

She was also among over 200 Columbia faculty who staged a walkout on April 22, 2024, to protest police presence on campus. Bernofsky reportedly said:
“To stand there and watch policemen grabbing students and picking them up and dragging them out of campus was traumatic. We did not consent to police being brought onto campus to arrest students, and the administration did it anyway. Faculty members at Columbia have a wide range of political opinions about a lot of things, but we’re pretty united that we do not want our students mass arrested.”
During the walkout, Bernofsky posed with a sign that said, “Unsuspend My Students.”
