China is the greatest existential threat that the United States currently faces. Through military, governmental, and financial fronts, the authoritarian Chinese government seeks to supplant the United States as the world’s sole superpower. None of their tactics may be more perfidious than the placement of Confucius Institutes on campuses across the country. Currently, 64 Institutes operate at American universities, high schools, and even elementary schools, serving as focal points of China’s espionage against our country. China has spent hundreds of millions of dollars to indoctrinate students with state-sponsored, communist propaganda, matched by university funds that are enabled by your hard-earned tax dollars.
Turning Point USA is standing up to the Chinese Communist Party. Through our China on Campus initiative, Turning Point USA is highlighting the infiltration of our educational institutions and halting the Chinese government in its tracks. We will locate, identify, and expose every school and professor that receives funding from the Chinese government. Through our efforts, Turning Point USA aims to close every Confucius Institute on American campuses for good.

Michigan State University

<a href="https://education.msu.edu/te/PhD/Whos-Who/Doctoral-Students/">Alba Lamar </a>is a graduate student and instructor at Michigan State University. In a class prior to Thanksgiving 2016, Lamar taught students how to argue with conservative relatives about issues such as illegal immigration, refugees, and the Dakota Access Pipeline. Lamar also mocked Christians for not supporting taking in Middle Eastern refugees and said conservatives often come to their views through fear.

<a href="http://www.english.msu.edu/people/faculty/william-penn/">William Penn</a> teaches in the Creative Writing Program at Michigan State University. Penn was recorded complaining in one of his creative writing classes about “dead white Republicans” who “raped his country.” As a student videotaped his rant, Penn antagonized students and asked, “You look like you’re frowning. Are you frowning?”.

Dr. Dorinda Carter Andrews is a <a href="https://education.msu.edu/people/carter-andrews-dorinda/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chairperson and Professor</a> at Michigan State University in the College of Education. Her research interests include racial justice and educational equity. Dr. Andrews has published articles for many media outlets and journals and has given two <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3N23MXsow8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TED Talks</a> in relation to critical race theory and racial gaps in education.

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1720" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-09-at-9.42.13-AM.png" alt="" width="482" height="186" />

In an <a href="https://www.hourdetroit.com/education-schools/a-critical-race-theory-expert-on-how-something-benign-became-toxic/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article for Hour Detroit</a>, Dr. Andrews accuses conservatives of “gaslighting” by being against critical race theory. Dr. Andrews alleges conservatives “cry CRT” any time an educator teaches something from America’s history that puts them in a “bad light,” even if it’s true. She goes on to insinuate that conservatives don’t want educators teaching black history at all.

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1721" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-09-at-9.43.29-AM.png" alt="" width="554" height="183" />

Dr. Andrews has lectured all over the nation about critical race theory. In the video below from June 2021, she identifies as a critical race theorist:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cIOWFdt-Os

In a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOrgf3wTUbo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TED Talk given in 2014</a>, Dr. Andrews discussed racial inequity in the education system. She argues that the education system was founded in white supremacy,  making it nearly impossible for students of color to get ahead. She claims that students of color and poor students are already behind the curve before they even step foot into the classroom, and it’s unfair to expect the same levels of success for them compared to white students.

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1723" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-09-at-9.44.57-AM.png" alt="" width="440" height="183" />

When Dr. Andrews isn’t teaching, lecturing, or writing publications, she often takes to Twitter to discuss CRT, racial equity, and anti-white rhetoric. Some examples are below:

https://twitter.com/DrDorindaCA/status/694285220351217664

https://twitter.com/DrDorindaCA/status/1062013677040132099

https://twitter.com/DrDorindaCA/status/1367512182443954178

Dr. Andrews is a critical race theorist who pushes anti-white rhetoric in the classroom. In her opinion, racism is so deeply embedded into our education system that students of color have no chance of getting ahead if critical race theory isn’t taught in the classroom. In her eyes, conservatives are only against critical race theory because they fear it paints them in a negative light.

Dr. Nancy Romig is an Associate Director at the Confucius Institute of Michigan State.

<a href="https://fhssfaculty.byu.edu/directory/jane-lopez" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Jane Lopez</a> is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at <a href="https://www.byu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brigham Young University</a> in Provo, Utah. According to her university biography, her research focuses on immigration, citizenship, law, race, and ethnicity.
In addition to teaching a class on immigration, Dr. Lopez is a sought-after speaker on the topic by the university. She was a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FNKG4m6FOg&amp;t=4041s&amp;ab_channel=BYUKennedyCenter" target="_blank" rel="noopener">featured guest in a Kennedy Center</a> event that condemned current immigration laws as oppressive and racist.
During her remarks, Dr. Lopez echoed her co-panelists praise of illegal immigration and encouragement to violate existing immigration laws. She further referred to the expectation of immigrants to learn English as a “privilege” of native-born Americans who will never face immigration laws.
Toward the end of her speech, Dr. Lopez stated that our ancestors were illegal immigrants. Americans have no right to deny immigrants, as this country “isn’t ours to begin with” and our ancestors caused &#8220;much greater destruction&#8221; than immigrants do today.

Dr. Lopez’s classes further focus on race and “white privilege.” In leaked documents from her course, SOC-112, Dr. Lopez tasked students to identify and expose “whiteness” at BYU.

The assignment, titled “Revealing Whiteness Activity,” asks teams of 3-4 students to explore the different aspects of “whiteness” built into the “physical and social environment” of BYU,
“As a Predominantly White Institution (PWI), BYU not only has a disproportionate number of White students in its student body (compared to the US population as a whole), but it also has different aspects of “Whiteness” built into its physical and social environment.” 
The document cites University of Washington professor and author of “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/White-Fragility-People-About-Racism/dp/0807047414" target="_blank" rel="noopener">White Fragility</a>,” Robin DeAngelo, to define “whiteness” as the “specific dimensions of racism that serve to elevate White people over people of color.” She includes three additional definitions to further define the term as:
&#8211; A location of structural advantage, or “race privilege.”
&#8211; A “standpoint,” or a place from which White people look at themselves, at others, and at society.
&#8211; A set of cultural practices that are usually unmarked and unnamed.

Students are tasked with identifying and photographing three separate manifestations of alleged whiteness on BYU’s campus before uploading the assignment for a final grade.
The document was originally published by the student-led publication, “<a href="https://thecougarchronicle.godaddysites.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Cougar Chronicle,</a>” and <a href="https://www.tpusa.com/live/at-byu-all-you-have-to-do-to-get-an-a-is-be-a-racist" target="_blank" rel="noopener">highlighted by TPUSA’s Morgan Zegers</a>,
Upon the initial publication, a professor now identified as Dr. Eric Bybee, threatened to report all students affiliated with the story to BYU’s Honor Code Office. Dr. Bybee further called for the administration to investigate the students for possible conduct violations. (The names of the students cited by Dr. Bybee have been redacted at their request.) The author eventually altered the article out of concern for his academic standing.

<a href="https://fhssfaculty.byu.edu/directory/rebecca-deschweinitz" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Rebecca de Schweinitz</a> is an Associate Professor of History at <a href="https://www.byu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brigham Young University</a> (BYU) in Provo, Utah. According to her university biography, Dr. de Schweinitz teaches subjects such as American History, US Women’s History, and African American History.

Much of Dr. de Schweinitz’s work focuses on racism within the LDS Church and BYU. In one of her published papers—tilted <a href="https://www.dialoguejournal.com/articles/there-is-no-equality-william-e-berrett-byu-and-healing-the-wounds-of-racism-in-the-latter-day-saint-past-and-present/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“There is No Equity”</a>—Dr. de Schweinitz details the history of racism within the university.

Dr. de Schweinitz is frequently cited by BYU for her expertise on racism, or more specifically, “anti-racism.” In one discussion—hosted by the BYU Kennedy Center—she extolls anti-racist scholar, Ibram X Kendi’s Book, “<a href="https://www.ibramxkendi.com/how-to-be-an-antiracist/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">How to be an Antiracist</a>.”

Dr. Kendi’s book became a bestseller in 2020 during the height of the BLM riots. The premise targets systemic racism and claims that not it is not enough or to be “non-racist,” an individual must be anti racist, or take proactive actions or support policies that alleviate racism.

Readers may learn more about <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/ibramxkendi" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Kendi by visiting his profile in the Professor Watchlist.</a>

During her comments on the panel, Dr. de Schweinitz <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RO0V1tQzMU&amp;ab_channel=BYUKennedyCenter" target="_blank" rel="noopener">vehemently endorses Dr. Kendi’s work</a>. She even goes as far as to compare herself to Dr. Kendi, lauding the historical credentials of the latter. Furthermore, she openly admits that Dr. Kendi’s conception is taught in her classroom and centers her scholarships.

At one point, she calls racism a “metastatic cancer” that affects every single aspect of life in the United States. She admits that Dr. Kendi is right, and that white people are “nurtured” to be racist.

[video width="1920" height="1080" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Untitled.mp4"][/video]

Throughout the lecture, Dr. de Schweintz frequently references her LDS background as a pretext to cite the need to be “antiracist.” At one point, she compares God’s position on sin to her own—and by default, Dr. Keni’s as well—on racism; as one can either be for the world or for God, likewise you can either be racist or anti-racist.

This theme is <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPCoxKtNvsg&amp;ab_channel=BYUKennedyCenter" target="_blank" rel="noopener">continued in part two of the lecture.</a> Dr. de Schweinitz wastes no time in not only praising critical race theory, but listing it as integral to fighting racism.

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/">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. de Schweinitz states that anyone opposed to CRT is just viewing American history narrow-mindedly. She further states that an anti-racist America is “beautiful.” She articulates that critical theory is “one of many tools” that can be used by the church to alleviate racism.

<a href="https://fhssfaculty.byu.edu/directory/jane-lopez" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Jane Lopez</a> is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at <a href="https://www.byu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brigham Young University</a> in Provo, Utah.

Updated - March 3rd, 2022

<a href="https://education.byu.edu/directory/view/bybee-eric" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Eric Ruiz Bybee</a> is an Assistant Professor of Teacher Education in the <a href="https://education.byu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">David O. McKay School of Education</a> at <a href="https://www.byu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brigham Young University</a> in Provo, Utah.

In a message to the conservative, student-run publication, <a href="https://thecougarchronicle.godaddysites.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Cougar Chronicle</a>, Dr. Bybee threatened to report writers of the site and others for academic misconduct. The incident stemmed from a report by the paper in which a document from Dr. Jane Lopez’s course was published.

Her assignment—titled, “Revealing Whiteness Activity,”—asked students to identify and photograph three aspects of “whiteness” represented at BYU. The document further cited the author of “White Fragility”, Robin DeAngelo, to define “whiteness” as “specific dimensions of racism that serve to elevate white people over people of color.”

Several days after the story was posted, the site was inundated with comments accusing the author of posting private intellectual property.

<img class="size-full wp-image-1981 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Screen-Shot-2022-02-28-at-10.55.17-AM.png" alt="" width="468" height="596" />

&nbsp;

Shortly after, Dr. Eric Bybee privately messaged the Chronicle and demanded the post be taken down. He likewise accused the authors of stealing Dr. Lopez’s intellectual property and engaging in “targeted harassment” before assuring that he is committed to pursuing “appropriate consequences” against those responsible.

He threatened to report several conservative students and activists on campus—including several who do not even write for the paper—to the university’s Honor Code office administration for disciplinary action (The names of the students have been blurred at their request).

<img class="wp-image-1985 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Untitled-5-×-11-in-1-3-465x1024.png" alt="" width="535" height="1177" />

&nbsp;

<a href="https://honorcode.byu.edu/about-us" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Honor Code Office</a> is tasked with enforcing the university’s code of conduct. Those found in violation may face academic discipline or—in extreme cases—expulsion from BYU.

Upon review of the Honor Code by the Professor Watchlist Team, t<a href="https://catalog.byu.edu/policy/academic-honesty">here appears to be no rule against the posting of an assignment</a>.

While the office ultimately chose to not investigate, the author of the story eventually edited the sections of the report that included Dr. Lopez’s course due to the nature of the threat. The <a href="https://thecougarchronicle.godaddysites.com/news-and-opinion/f/opinion-byu-teaching-antiracism---racism-repackaged" target="_blank" rel="noopener">updated piece can still be found on the Chronicle’s website</a> and a corresponding post on the site’s Instagram page—<a href="https://www.instagram.com/byuconservatives/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BYU Conservatives</a>—may be viewed below.

Delong-Bas</a> is an Associate Professor of Practice in the <a href="https://www.bc.edu/content/bc-web/schools/mcas/departments/theology.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Theology Department</a> at <a href="https://www.bc.edu/content/bc-web.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Boston College</a>. Much of her scholarship focuses on the Koran and women&#8217;s rights under Islamic law. Dr. Delong-Bas is further known for her strident defenses of Islam as a religion of peace, even going so far as denying al-Qaeda&#8217;s role in the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
A significant aspect of her research and her publications concentrate on Wahhabism, a conservative sect of Islam whose adherents are known for their strict interpretation of Koranic Law. In addition to claiming <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLWWopyMzxQ&amp;ab_channel=PulitzerCenter" target="_blank" rel="noopener">that Islam has no connection to religious violence and extremism</a>, she declares <a href="https://www.meforum.org/campus-watch/10775/natana-delong-bas-american-professor-wahhabi" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Wahhabism—in its true form—has no connection to violent, Islamist extremism</a> when it occurs.
<a href="https://www.investigativeproject.org/documents/testimony/47.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Wahhabism</a> emerged as a puritanical sect of Islam in the 18th century. Adherents—who are referred to as “Salafists”—seek to purify any sect or branch of Islam that does not adopt the 7-century practices and teaching of the Prophet Mohammed, including the practice of waging jihad.
Many jihadist movements adhere to and base their ideology on Wahhabism. In addition to serving as the official state religion of Saudi Arabia, Osama Bin Laden and the 9/11 hijackers were adherents to this extremist sect. Al-Qaeda, as well as its sister organizations like <a href="https://www.israelnationalnews.com/Articles/Article.aspx/21335" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hamas and ISIS, all base their ideology and practices on Wahhabism</a>.
Due to her strident defenses of Islam and Wahhabism, Dr. Delong-Bas is a frequent visitor and guest of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, where she adorns a full burka out of “respect” for Saudi culture.
In an interview with a Saudi newspaper, she denied that any extremist movements in the Middle East had any connection to Islam, but instead argued <a href="https://www.memri.org/reports/american-professor-natana-delong-bas-%E2%80%98i-do-not-find-any-evidence-would-make-me-agree-osama" target="_blank" rel="noopener">that support of Israel is the root cause of terrorism against the West</a>,
“The political conditions in the Islamic world, like the Palestinian issue, which has lasted 60 years, [the issue of] Iraq, and the American government&#8217;s tying [the hands of] the U.N. [and preventing it] from adopting any resolution against Israel, have definitely added to the Muslim youth&#8217;s state of frustration, which then pushes them to &#8211; as they understand it &#8211; help their brothers do away with the aggression against them, in the various Islamic countries”
When the interviewer asked directly whether or not Osama Bin Laden was involved in the terrorist attacks on 9/11, she explicitly denied his involvement, stating that there was “no proof” that he participated in the attack.

Dr. Heather Cox Richardson is a <a href="https://www.bc.edu/bc-web/schools/mcas/departments/history/people/faculty-directory/heather-cox-richardson.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Professor of History</a> at Boston College. Her area of interest is nineteenth-century American history, which she teaches at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Dr. Richardson has <a href="https://www.thriftbooks.com/w/to-make-men-free-a-history-of-the-republican-party_heather-cox-richardson/8911738/#edition=59242139&amp;idiq=45881792" target="_blank" rel="noopener">written several books</a>, including To Make Men Free: a History of the Republican Party and How the South Won the Civil War.

When Dr. Richardson isn’t teaching or writing books on American history, she is making political comments to journalists. <a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2021/11/biden-needs-an-enemy/620778/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In an article</a> for The Atlantic by Molly Jong-Fast titled “Biden Needs an Enemy,” Dr. Richardson suggested that President Biden declare war on conservatives.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1925" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screen-Shot-2021-12-29-at-9.24.00-AM.png" alt="" width="500" height="257" />

Jong-Fast further clarified that Dr. Richardson believes that Biden should wage war on Republicans in order to combat what Dr. Richardson considers to be ‘authoritarian overreach.’

In December of 2021, Dr. Richardson <a href="https://www.milwaukeeindependent.com/heather-richardson/fear-legitimacy-political-agenda-deny-democracy-igniting-culture-wars/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">penned an article</a> for Milwaukee Independent titled “A Fear of Legitimacy: When the Only Political Agenda is to Deny Democracy by Igniting Culture Wars.” In the piece, Dr. Richardson accuses conservatives of focusing on culture wars rather than using their power to fight for positive changes.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1926" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screen-Shot-2021-12-29-at-9.27.04-AM.png" alt="" width="500" height="186" />

Dr. Richardson claims that Democrats and liberals are not advocating for socialism or communism, but rather the government “regulate business, provide a basic social safety net, and promote infrastructure projects that are too big or unprofitable for private industry.”  She continues by alleging that conservatives “double down” on the idea that the election was stolen by the Socialist Left and are hypocritical in their claims.

Dr. Richardson often writes in her blog about current events and politics in her free time. On November 30, 2021, Dr. Richardson claimed the U.S. economy was “booming.” The blog post outlines how unemployment rates are the lowest they have been since 1969. Dr. Richardson makes these claims with little legitimate evidence to back them up - her sources are limited to a <a href="https://twitter.com/KamalaHarris/status/1465492526513725442" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kamala Harris tweet</a>, Business Insider articles, and posts from the New York Times. Her blog posts <a href="https://heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/archive?sort=top" target="_blank" rel="noopener">can be viewed here.</a>

Charles H.F. Davis is an Assistant Professor at the Center for the Study of Higher and Postsecondary Education at the University of Michigan. He previously taught at the University of Southern California. According to his university biography, Davis’s research and teaching focuses on, “race and racism, systems of oppression, and structures of domination in U.S. higher education and its social contexts.”

Davis previously rose to notoriety in 2017 for a series of <a href="https://twitter.com/hfdavis?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor">racially inflammatory tweets</a>. As reported by <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/usc-professor-defends-tweet-promoting-violence-whiteness/">The College Fix</a>, he tweeted that “whiteness” must be destroyed and alluded to the necessity of violence in confronting it.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1308 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-04-21T135205.941-e1619038447297-1024x278.png" alt="" width="580" height="157" />

The background photo of his Twitter account at the time featured a black woman pointing a gun at a pig that clearly represents a caricature of a police officer. 

When contacted <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/usc-professor-defends-tweet-promoting-violence-whiteness/">The College Fix</a> over his remarks, Davis responded, “To be clear, I am decidedly against whiteness as a social and political ideology, which systematically marginalize and disenfranchise people of color from opportunities for societal advancement. In addition, I am against the institution of policing, which has historically and continuously enacted racial terror, sexual violence, and economic exploitation against racial minorities, women and LGBTQ communities, and economically disadvantaged working-class people.”

When asked if any of these tweets might make students uncomfortable, Davis <a href="http://hfdavis.com/blog/an-interview-with-a-conservative">responded</a> that any discomfort experienced by his white students is a result of their “white fragility.” 

Davis had previously advocated for the right of students to disrupt conservative speakers on campus. In the wake of <a href="https://badgerherald.com/news/2016/11/17/conservative-pundit-ben-shapiro-lectures-to-turbulent-crowd-on-safe-spaces-freedom-of-speech/">protesters heckling</a> Ben Shapiro’s lecture at the University of Wisconsin Madison, school regents approved a <a href="https://www.chicagotribune.com/nation-world/ct-university-of-wisconsin-protest-punishment-20171006-story.html">policy</a> to suspend or expel students that purposefully disrupt events. Davis’s subsequent <a href="https://www.chicagotribune.com/nation-world/ct-university-of-wisconsin-protest-punishment-20171006-story.html">op-ed</a> at Inside Higher Ed argued that this only reinforced white supremacy: “To be clear, it is a decision that reinforces institutionalized white supremacy -- and other oppressive forms of systemic power.” Davis argues that conservative speakers like Shapiro have hijacked the First Amendment to push “white supremacist agendas.”  

Davis’s website, which is listed by the University of Michigan on his biography, <a href="https://static1.squarespace.com/static/51ab9fa0e4b06a38e604420a/t/5edaf71d1ab0434751b2e960/1591408468354/HF+Davis+%E2%80%93%C2%A0EPK.pdf">advertises </a>that he has taught the issues of “ race, racism, and systemic oppression in education and society” to over “7,000 students, educators and institutional leaders.” The <a href="http://hfdavis.com/">home page</a> of the site also features links to organizations that advocate for the Black Lives Matter movement, abolishing the police, and boycotting the nation of Israel.

Lippold made<a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=11317"> headlines</a> for his blatant discrimination against a pro-Israel student at Michigan. After agreeing to the initial request, he refused to write a letter of recommendation for her to study abroad in Israel due to his adherence to the academic boycott of the nation. In a now released email exchange, Lippold replied to the student’s request:

“As you may know, many university departments have pledged an academic boycott against Israel in support of Palestinians living in Palestine. This boycott includes writing letters of recommendations for students to study there.” 

In a<a href="https://nypost.com/2018/09/20/professor-draws-ire-after-declining-to-help-student-study-in-israel/"> statement</a> released by <a href="https://palestinelegal.org/">Palestine Legal</a>, he only proceeded to double-down and even compared Israel to Apartheid-era South Africa:

“I support the Palestinian boycott call because I am appalled at Israel’s continuing violation of Palestinian rights, and our government’s support for those violations...If a student had wanted to do a study abroad at an institution in Apartheid South Africa, I would have declined to write a letter for her as well.”

<a href="https://education.uky.edu/profile/candice-crowell/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Candice N. Hargons</a> (formerly Crowell) is an Associate Professor in the <a href="https://education.uky.edu/edp/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Department of Educational, School, and Counseling Psychology</a> at the <a href="https://education.uky.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of Kentucky</a>. According to her university biography, Dr. Hargons teaches Diagnosis/Psychopathy, Ethics, Social Justice Consultation, and Practicum. She is additionally listed as a licensed psychologist who specializes in “sex therapy and healing racial trauma.”
Dr. Hargons is known for creating a meditation to allegedly heal her patient’s racial trauma. The 17-minute guided meditation—titled the “<a href="https://soundcloud.com/drcandicenicole/black-lives-matter-meditation-for-healing-racial-trauma" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Black Lives Matter Meditation for Healing Racial Trauma</a>”– was created to help black Americans cope with police shootings.
In an interview with the <a href="https://www.huffpost.com/entry/this-blm-meditation-can-help-people-cope-with-the-tiring-cycle-of-oppression_n_59089aade4b0bb2d0871e5ac" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Huffington Post</a>, Dr. Hargons characterized her efforts as combating the narratives that “undercut black humanity” in the patients she treats. She further boasted that the audio had been used in colleges like UCLA, Emory University, the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, the University of Iowa, among others.
When asked what inspired her to create the meditation, Dr. Hargons described the BLM movement as a “healing, affirming balm and a catalyst” for research and professorial duties. She further praised the “empowering and world-changing” courage of the movement’s founders, including professor Patrisse Cullors.
Dr. Patrisse Cullors openly identifies as a Marxist and <a href="https://nypost.com/2021/05/27/black-lives-matter-co-founder-patrisse-cullors-resigns-amid-controversy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">led the BLM movement until she resigned in 2021</a>. You can read more about <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/patrissecullors" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Cullors on her profile on the Professor Watchlist</a>.
According to a <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">study conducted by the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED)</a>, BLM can be linked to 95% of the riots around the country in the Summer months of 2020 following the death of George Floyd. In an analysis of the study, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Federalist</a> found, “of the 633 incidents coded as riots, 88 percent are recorded as involving Black Lives Matter Activists.” The resulting riots were the largest in American history, <a href="https://fee.org/articles/george-floyd-riots-caused-record-setting-2-billion-in-damage-new-report-says-here-s-why-the-true-cost-is-even-higher/#:~:text=Only%20now%20are%20we%20beginning,%241%20billion%20to%20%242%20billion." target="_blank" rel="noopener">causing an estimated $2 billion in damages and 47 deaths.</a>
Dr. Hargons also created a mediation specifically designed for white people. Titled the “<a href="https://www.drcandicenicole.com/blm-meditation" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ally + Accomplice Meditation for Cultivating an Anti-Racist Mindset</a>.” The guided meditation encourages white listeners to “choose equity rather than oppression.” She bluntly characterizes white people as “accomplices” in racism who must work to understand “whiteness.”
Through the University of Kentucky, Dr. Hargons has authored a number of other BLM-themed materials that explicitly cite the movement and accuse the United States of being systematically racist. <a href="https://www.drcandicenicole.com/post/white-people-stress-me-out-all-the-time-black-students-define-racial-trauma" target="_blank" rel="noopener">One such study is titled, “White People Stress Me Out All the Time: Black Students Define Racial Trauma</a>.”
In the paper, Dr. Hargons and her co-authors state racism–or racial trauma—is a factor affecting black people “from cradle to grave” and label it a “public health crisis.” They further cite research that alleges that racism has similar adverse effects as “rape and domestic violence.” The authors then set out to find how black students define racial trauma and how it affects their daily lives.
The paper relies solely on participants to define what racial trauma is. One participant stated that “white people stress me out all the time.” Another cited seeing a “Trump-Pence” bumper sticker on her friend&#8217;s car as a source of trauma.
The paper admits that research was conducted through a “black feminist framework” in order to separate their research from the “white supremacist capitalist heteropatriarchy” which “oppresses and shackles” black men and women through “white patriarchal ideals.” The researchers eventually conclude that University counselors must direct attention and resources to further treat racial trauma in their students.
In another study—titled “Black Lives Matter, a call to action for Counseling and Psychology Leaders”—Dr. Hargons and her co-authors <a href="https://uknowledge.uky.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1034&amp;context=edp_facpub" target="_blank" rel="noopener">extol the movement as the “ultimate expression of a social justice movement.”</a> They urge fellow psychologists to not be “judgemental” of the “aggressive” tactics of activists, as the killing of black people “necessitates a strong, emotional response.”
“In seeking to support the Black Lives Matter movement, it is important that counseling psychologists not be judgmental or dismissive of, or apologists for, the emotional tone and“aggressive” tactics used by some  Black Lives Matters activists. The killings of Black people, many unarmed (Mapping Police Violence, 2016), understandably necessitate a strong emotional response. Cokley explained the all-consuming, raw and unbridled anger from Black people that results from a profound sense of alienation and helplessness in society. Although we do not suggest counseling psychologists must engage in the same tactics in order to support Black Lives Matter, we suggest that counseling psychologists should not be emotionally dispassionate observers.”
They conclude that fellow psychologists must not only be supportive of the BLM’s goals but even provide counseling to its activists in order to combat the “pervasive societal racism towards the Black Lives Matter movement.”
In addition to her professorial duties, Dr. Hargons regularly provides anti-racist training to the University of Kentucky. As the head of the <a href="https://education.uky.edu/psychophysiological-effects-of-racism-and-meditation/">Healing Racial Trauma Project</a>, she has regularly been <a href="https://uknow.uky.edu/research/uk-professor-uses-science-dive-conversations-about-racism" target="_blank" rel="noopener">featured for her work by the university</a>, despite <a href="https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2021/08/university_of_kentucky_paid_big_bucks_for_abusive_crt_seminar.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">admitting that she charges white audiences more for her services</a>.
In August of 2021, Dr. Hargons led a workshop in which she <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/universitys-anti-racism-workshop-teaches-deans-to-accept-white-inferiority/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told university deans to “accept their white inferiority”</a> and how to develop anti-racist plans of action in their own lives, including hiring more people of color.

<a href="https://education.uky.edu/profile/candice-crowell/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Candice N. Hargons</a> (formerly Crowell) is an Associate Professor in the <a href="https://education.uky.edu/edp/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Department of Educational, School, and Counseling Psychology</a> at the <a href="https://education.uky.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of Kentucky</a>. According to her university biography, Dr. Hargons teaches Diagnosis/Psychopathy, Ethics, Social Justice Consultation, and Practicum. She is additionally listed as a licensed psychologist who specializes in “sex therapy and healing racial trauma.”

Dr. Hargons is known for creating a meditation to allegedly heal her patient’s racial trauma. The 17-minute guided meditation—titled the “<a href="https://soundcloud.com/drcandicenicole/black-lives-matter-meditation-for-healing-racial-trauma" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Black Lives Matter Meditation for Healing Racial Trauma</a>”– was created to help black Americans cope with police shootings.

In an interview with the <a href="https://www.huffpost.com/entry/this-blm-meditation-can-help-people-cope-with-the-tiring-cycle-of-oppression_n_59089aade4b0bb2d0871e5ac" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Huffington Post</a>, Dr. Hargons characterized her efforts as combating the narratives that “undercut black humanity” in the patients she treats. She further boasted that the audio had been used in colleges like UCLA, Emory University, the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, the University of Iowa, among others.

When asked what inspired her to create the meditation, Dr. Hargons described the BLM movement as a “healing, affirming balm and a catalyst” for research and professorial duties. She further praised the “empowering and world-changing” courage of the movement’s founders, including professor Patrisse Cullors.

Dr. Patrisse Cullors openly identifies as a Marxist and <a href="https://nypost.com/2021/05/27/black-lives-matter-co-founder-patrisse-cullors-resigns-amid-controversy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">led the BLM movement until she resigned in 2021</a>. You can read more about <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/patrissecullors" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Cullors on her profile on the Professor Watchlist</a>.

According to a <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">study conducted by the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED)</a>, BLM can be linked to 95% of the riots around the country in the Summer months of 2020 following the death of George Floyd. In an analysis of the study, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Federalist</a> found, “of the 633 incidents coded as riots, 88 percent are recorded as involving Black Lives Matter Activists.” The resulting riots were the largest in American history, <a href="https://fee.org/articles/george-floyd-riots-caused-record-setting-2-billion-in-damage-new-report-says-here-s-why-the-true-cost-is-even-higher/#:~:text=Only%20now%20are%20we%20beginning,%241%20billion%20to%20%242%20billion." target="_blank" rel="noopener">causing an estimated $2 billion in damages and 47 deaths.</a>

Dr. Hargons also created a mediation specifically designed for white people. Titled the “<a href="https://www.drcandicenicole.com/blm-meditation" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ally + Accomplice Meditation for Cultivating an Anti-Racist Mindset</a>.” The guided meditation encourages white listeners to “choose equity rather than oppression.” She bluntly characterizes white people as “accomplices” in racism who must work to understand “whiteness.”

Through the University of Kentucky, Dr. Hargons has authored a number of other BLM-themed materials that explicitly cite the movement and accuse the United States of being systematically racist. <a href="https://www.drcandicenicole.com/post/white-people-stress-me-out-all-the-time-black-students-define-racial-trauma" target="_blank" rel="noopener">One such study is titled, “White People Stress Me Out All the Time: Black Students Define Racial Trauma</a>.”

In the paper, Dr. Hargons and her co-authors state racism–or racial trauma—is a factor affecting black people “from cradle to grave” and label it a “public health crisis.” They further cite research that alleges that racism has similar adverse effects as “rape and domestic violence.” The authors then set out to find how black students define racial trauma and how it affects their daily lives.

The paper relies solely on participants to define what racial trauma is. One participant stated that “white people stress me out all the time.” Another cited seeing a “Trump-Pence” bumper sticker on her friend's car as a source of trauma.

The paper admits that research was conducted through a “black feminist framework” in order to separate their research from the “white supremacist capitalist heteropatriarchy” which “oppresses and shackles” black men and women through “white patriarchal ideals.” The researchers eventually conclude that University counselors must direct attention and resources to further treat racial trauma in their students.

In another study—titled “Black Lives Matter, a call to action for Counseling and Psychology Leaders”—Dr. Hargons and her co-authors <a href="https://uknowledge.uky.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1034&amp;context=edp_facpub" target="_blank" rel="noopener">extol the movement as the “ultimate expression of a social justice movement.”</a> They urge fellow psychologists to not be “judgemental” of the “aggressive” tactics of activists, as the killing of black people “necessitates a strong, emotional response.”

“In seeking to support the Black Lives Matter movement, it is important that counseling psychologists not be judgmental or dismissive of, or apologists for, the emotional tone and“aggressive” tactics used by some  Black Lives Matters activists. The killings of Black people, many unarmed (Mapping Police Violence, 2016), understandably necessitate a strong emotional response. Cokley explained the all-consuming, raw and unbridled anger from Black people that results from a profound sense of alienation and helplessness in society. Although we do not suggest counseling psychologists must engage in the same tactics in order to support Black Lives Matter, we suggest that counseling psychologists should not be emotionally dispassionate observers.”

They conclude that fellow psychologists must not only be supportive of the BLM’s goals but even provide counseling to its activists in order to combat the “pervasive societal racism towards the Black Lives Matter movement.”

In addition to her professorial duties, Dr. Hargons regularly provides anti-racist training to the University of Kentucky. As the head of the <a href="https://education.uky.edu/psychophysiological-effects-of-racism-and-meditation/">Healing Racial Trauma Project</a>, she has regularly been <a href="https://uknow.uky.edu/research/uk-professor-uses-science-dive-conversations-about-racism" target="_blank" rel="noopener">featured for her work by the university</a>, despite <a href="https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2021/08/university_of_kentucky_paid_big_bucks_for_abusive_crt_seminar.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">admitting that she charges white audiences more for her services</a>.

In August of 2021, Dr. Hargons led a workshop in which she <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/universitys-anti-racism-workshop-teaches-deans-to-accept-white-inferiority/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told university deans to “accept their white inferiority”</a> and how to develop anti-racist plans of action in their own lives, including hiring more people of color.

Once the training was publicized by various media outlets, the President of the University of Kentucky sent out a campus-wide email <a href="https://uknow.uky.edu/campus-news/anti-racist-trainings-continue-across-campus" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lauding Dr. Hargons and stating his intent to continue the anti-racist training</a>,

“But what is clear is that we will—and we must—stand with our faculty, staff and students who are engaged in these efforts….We will not be deterred in these efforts. We will not stand down in our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Implementation Plan, which involves faculty, staff and students across our campus.”

<a href="https://www.law.ua.edu/directory/People/view/Richard_Delgado" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Richard Delgado</a> is a Professor and the John J. Sparkman Chair at the <a href="https://www.law.ua.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of Alabama School of Law</a>. According to his university biography, his areas of expertise are listed as civil rights, constitutional law, and critical race theory. The biography further boasts that Dr. Delgado is the “eight-most cited legal scholar in US history.”
Dr. Delgado is famously known as one of the pioneering scholars of critical race theory. Beginning in the 1980s, the theory received significant contributions from scholars such as Dereck Bell, Jean Stefanic, Kimberlé Crenshaw, and Dr. Delgado, among others.
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 in 1776 when the American colonies declared independence from England.
To learn more, visit <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/crenshaw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Kimberlé Crenshaw’s profile on the Professor Watchlist</a>.
Considered one of the seminal works that contributed to the larger body of critical race theory, Dr. Delgado is the <a href="https://jordaninstituteforfamilies.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Delgado_and_Stefancic_on_Critical_Race_Theory.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">author of the paper, “Critical Race Theory, an Introduction.</a>”
In the first chapter, Dr. Delgado defines critical race theory as civil rights with a perspective that includes “economics, history, context, group-and-self-interest, feelings, and the unconscious”. He additionally states that critical race theory questions the “very foundations” of the West, including “legal reasoning, the enlightenment, and the neutral principles of constitutional law.” He further writes that it can be utilized by theorists in a number of situations, and legal scholars to incorporate an “activist dimension” into their work.
Building upon the work of previous movements—like critical legal studies and “radical feminism”—Dr. Delgado further cites aspects of the racially explicit Black Power and Chicano movements as inspirations for critical race theory. Positing that racism is “ordinary” or universally ingrained into everyday culture, Dr. Delgado writes that racism is difficult to alleviate as it advances the interests of white Americans, who therefore have no vested interest in giving up their own power.
He further states that racism has not subsided in recent decades, but has only taken different forms. Critical race theory may then be used to understand this relationship between “race, racism, and power.”
Keeping with his theory, Dr. Delgado expressly condemns many aspects of Western Civilization—such as free speech, the Enlightenment, and judicial impartiality—as institutions that are imbued with racism. In 1994<a href="https://www.heritage.org/civil-rights/report/critical-race-theory-the-new-intolerance-and-its-grip-america" target="_blank" rel="noopener">, Dr. Delgado criticizes the First Amendment</a> for failing to prevent racial or hateful speech against minorities, concluding it must be amended or eliminated.

Dr. Delgado’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.

<a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/manufactured-boogeyman-latino-critical-race-theory-pioneers-advocates-rcna3965" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Despite denying that critical race theory is included in K-12 curriculums</a>, Dr. Delgado had praised teachers for adopting his work.

"If one is an idealist, campus speech codes, tort remedies for racist speech, diversity seminars, and increasing the representation of black, brown, and Asian actors on television shows will be high on one’s list of priorities."

Dr. Stefancic’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>”

<a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/manufactured-boogeyman-latino-critical-race-theory-pioneers-advocates-rcna3965" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Despite the fact her husband denied that Critical Race Theory is included in K-12 curriculums</a>, both praised teachers for adopting their work. In a speech from 2010, Dr. Delgado details how critical race theorists “found a natural infinity in education,” describing the phenomena as a “<a href="https://dailycaller.com/2021/06/29/critical-race-theory-richard-delgado-jean-stefancic-education/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">great source of satisfaction” for both of them</a>.

The Professor Watchlist Team reached out to Dr. Stefancic for comment but has not received a reply by the time of publication.

Dr. William (Bill) Gibson is a <a href="https://www.vwu.edu/marlin-directory.php?person=0000206" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chair and Professor of Political Science</a> at Virginia Wesleyan University. His areas of interest include environmental policy, nature resources management, and intergovernmental relations. The courses Dr. Gibson teaches include Conflict Management, Urban Politics, and Public Administration. In 2013, Dr. Gibson co-authored a book titled, “<a href="https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-case-for-grassroots-collaboration-john-charles-morris/1115393897" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Case for Grassroots Collaboration: Social Capital and Ecosystem Restoration at the Local Level</a>.”
In February of 2021, Dr. Gibson found himself in hot water amongst conservatives when an <a href="https://www.yaf.org/news/vwu-professor-attacks-conservatives-in-internal-email-i-am-sickened-examine-your-conscience/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">inflammatory email leaked to Young America’s Foundation</a>. In the email, Dr. Gibson resigned from his role as a chapter advisor for a conservative student group on campus. The email showed his true hatred of conservatives. It can be viewed in its entirety below.

In the email, Dr. Gibson accuses conservatives of being compulsive liars and engaging in tribalism behaviors. He writes, “I am sickened. I have had it; I’m over it. You will have to find another faculty advisor for your group.” Dr. Gibson goes on to call conservatives a disgrace and illegitimate. He closes out the email by stating, “each of you should take a break and examine your conscience.”
According to Young America’s Foundation, the university did not comment as to whether or not they discussed the email with Dr. Gibson. As of Fall 2021, it does not appear that Dr. Gibson faced any consequences for his accusatory email to the conservative club.  It also looks like he is still teaching at the university.

"He whispers promises of protection with crossed fingers behind his back, and while we prepare to give him a chance, turning our heads from his proven history of lies, he will attack us bareback and ride us until we tear...

In an interview with C.J. Polychroniou, Chomsky <a href="https://truthout.org/articles/trump-in-the-white-house-an-interview-with-noam-chomsky/">states</a> that the Republican party is the “most dangerous organization in human history.” The New Yorker also reports Chomsky's claims that <a href="https://www.newyorker.com/news/q-and-a/noam-chomsky-believes-trump-is-the-worst-criminal-in-human-history">Donald Trump is a worse criminal than Adolf Hitler</a>.

&nbsp;
Socialism
According to the New Criterion, Chomsky frequently <a href="https://newcriterion.com/issues/2003/5/the-hypocrisy-of-noam-chomsky">praised</a> the left-wing government of the Khmer Rouge and has publically disputed the credibility and existence of the Cambodian Genocide. Committed by the Khmer Rouge and its dictatorial head Pol Pot, it is <a href="https://cla.umn.edu/chgs/holocaust-genocide-education/resource-guides/cambodia#:~:text=Lasting%20for%20four%20years%20(between,following%20the%20Cambodian%20Civil%20War.">estimated</a> that at least 1.5 and 3 million people died between 1976 and 1979. Despite <a href="https://gsp.yale.edu/case-studies/cambodian-genocide-program">detailed reports</a> of starvation and systematic executions, Chomsky denied that any widespread killings had taken place and accused reporters of repeating right-wing propaganda and sensationalizing their stories. Chomsky attributes the deaths to US imperialism and executions of subversive elements to the communist government

&nbsp;
Antisemitism
Chomsky publically defends individuals who engage in Holocaust denial. As documented in Robert F. Barskey’s book, “Noam Chomsky: A Life of Dissent,” Chomsky was a <a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=RKUbyYPG4mcC&amp;pg=PA180&amp;lpg=PA180&amp;dq=Dr.+Faurisson+has+served+as+a+respected+professor+of+twentieth-century+French+literature+and+document+criticism+for+over+four+years+at+the+University+of+Lyon+2+in+France.+Since+1974+he+has+been+conducting+extensive+independent+historical+research+into+the+%22Holocaust%22+question.+Since+he+began+making+his+findings+public,+Professor+Faurisson+has+been+subject+to+a+vicious+campaign+of+harassment,+intimidation,+slander,+and+physical+violence+in+a+crude+attempt+to+silence+him.+Fearful+officials+have+even+tried+to+stop+him+from+further+research+by+denying+him+access+to+public+libraries+and+archives.&amp;source=bl&amp;ots=_HNm25wsQ8&amp;sig=ACfU3U1uUzJGs8SMymEsOD-QnXHD08zr8A&amp;hl=en&amp;sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwiT1NHe6IPvAhXGpZ4KHfKoCqoQ6AEwAHoECAMQAw#v=onepage&amp;q&amp;f=false">signatory</a> to a petition in defense of the academic freedom of prominent Holocaust denier Robert Faurisson. <a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=_TIrDwAAQBAJ&amp;pg=PA59&amp;lpg=PA59&amp;dq=noam+chomsky+I+see+no+anti-Semitic+implications+in+denial+of+the+existence+of+gas+chambers,+or+even+denial+of+the+Holocaust&amp;source=bl&amp;ots=-ebdpQUkkR&amp;sig=ACfU3U0wrRkRwN-uGLqdPow6gCDxXd56ug&amp;hl=en&amp;sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwiS-bPWuOXuAhWEBKYKHY_pAYI4FBDoATAAegQIBhAC#v=onepage&amp;q=noam%20chomsky%20I%20see%20no%20anti-Semitic%20implications%20in%20denial%20of%20the%20existence%20of%20gas%20chambers%2C%20or%20even%20denial%20of%20the%20Holocaust&amp;f=false">Stating</a> that he sees nothing antisemitic about Faurisson's work, Chomsky would even author the forward to Faurisson's next book.

September 11 Attacks
Speaking at MIT following the aftermath of the <a href="https://twitter.com/TPUSA/status/1171500948964818944">September 11 terrorist attacks</a> against the United States, Chomsky <a href="http://tech.mit.edu/V121/N52/52chomsky.52n.html">asserted</a> that 9/11 represented, “the guns having been directed the other way.” The Tech, MIT’s oldest newspaper, also reports Chomsky blaming US citizens for the attacks on 9/11, and that Osama bin Laden, leader of al Qaeda, might be innocent.
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1127 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-94-e1614388858415-1024x197.png" alt="" width="580" height="112" />
Chomsky also <a href="https://www.salon.com/2001/09/26/treason_2/">stated</a> that the US casualties were far less devastating than the effects of US foreign policy around the world. Chomsky <a href="https://www.discoverthenetworks.org/individuals/noam-chomsky/">stated</a> that the United States was attempting to murder “3-4 million people” in Afganistan and that the strike against Osama bin Laden was “some sort of silent genocide.”

In an article published in 2020, <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/how-many-people-died-911-thousands-perishing-september-11-related-illnesses-1531058">Newsweek found that</a> “In New York, 2,750 people were killed, at the Pentagon 184 died, and a further 40 people were killed in Pennsylvania.” Newsweek also reported that 400 first responders were killed and that 18,000 survivors have been diagnosed with “9/11-related cancer.”

In the Fall 2021 semester, Ms. Chan will be teaching a Black Lives Matter(BLM)-inspired course that counts towards an English requirement for graduation.

<img class="wp-image-1511 size-full aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Screen-Shot-2021-08-19-at-3.38.45-PM-e1629412801120.png" alt="" width="399" height="389" />

Despite describing themselves as an inclusive, civil-rights organization, BLM embraces radically left-wing policies and tactics. Some of which include the following:

-<a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/blm-pressures-democrats-breathe-act-prison-abolition" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Abolishing prisons</a>

- <a href="https://www.wbur.org/hereandnow/2020/07/17/black-lives-matter-activist" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Abolishing police forces</a>

According to a <a href="https://acleddata.com/2020/09/03/demonstrations-political-violence-in-america-new-data-for-summer-2020/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">study conducted by the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED)</a>, BLM can be linked to 95% of the riots around the country–notably in Summer 2020 following the death of George Floyd. In an analysis of the study, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Federalist </a>found that “of the 633 incidents coded as riots, 88 percent are recorded as involving Black Lives Matter Activists.” The resulting riots were the most destructive in American history, <a href="https://fee.org/articles/george-floyd-riots-caused-record-setting-2-billion-in-damage-new-report-says-here-s-why-the-true-cost-is-even-higher/#:~:text=Only%20now%20are%20we%20beginning,%241%20billion%20to%20%242%20billion." target="_blank" rel="noopener">causing an estimated $2 billion in damages and 47 deaths.</a>

The course is officially titled, “ENGL 101A: #SayTheirNames, a Black Lives Matter Literacy.” Students will be asked to study how American values are connected to “blackness,” and “whiteness.” Ms. Chan will then ask the following:

- How does social media allow for critiques of race, gender, sexuality, and violence?

- What does it mean to say their names as an elegy, an anthem, and a language to give space for talking about Black Lives?

The phrase “Say Their Names” is frequently chanted at BLM protests. The slogan is an attempt, by activists, to draw attention to black men and women who have allegedly been murdered by police. <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/08/28/sen-rand-paul-surrounded-as-diverse-group-of-cops-defends-from-mob/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Senator Rand Paul was assaulted in August of 2020 by a mob yelling “[Brianna Taylor] Say Her Name!</a>”

Taylor, whose name is depicted in the banner of the course’s announcement, was reportedly dealing narcotics with her boyfriend–Kenneth Walker—at the time of her death. <a href="https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2020/09/the_truth_finally_emerges_about_breonna_taylors_death.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Walker opened fire on cops executing a search warrant on his apartment</a>, resulting in Breonna (who was present) dying in the crossfire.

Listed alongside the announcement banner are the course’s assigned texts. Those enrolled are required to read the following:

- Beyonce’s “Formation.” <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2016/02/08/2970258/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The song is a tribute to the Marxist, Black Panther Party</a>.

- Kendrick Lamar’s “Alright.” <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/kendrick-lamar-alright-2016-10?op=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The song is frequently sung at BLM protests</a>.

- Ta-Nehisi Coates’s “A Letter to My Son.” Coates authors a hypothetical letter to inform his son that he will grow up in a country that will <a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2015/07/tanehisi-coates-between-the-world-and-me/397619/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">oppress him because of his skin color</a>.

The course further promises to help students improve their writing skills by crafting a social narrative based on their “own social justice.” The class itself <a href="https://catalog.arizona.edu/policy/foundations-writing-requirement" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fulfills a Foundations Writing Requirement</a> for the University, which students are required to complete in order to graduate.

Dr. Kevin Cokley is the <a href="https://education.utexas.edu/faculty/kevin_cokley" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Department Chair of the Department of Educational Psychology</a> as well as a Professor of African American Diaspora Studies and Professor of Educational Psychology at the University of Texas &#8211; Austin. He is a Distinguished Teaching Professor and is published in many outlets, including Journal of Black Psychology, The Huffington Post, and The Hill. Dr. Cokley has taught many courses, some of which are Psychology of African American Experience and Multicultural Counseling.
Dr. Cokley is very openly pro-critical race theory. <a href="https://www.courierpress.com/story/opinion/2021/07/15/viewpoint-teaching-critical-race-theory-patriotic-not-anti-american/7982099002/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In an opinion piece for Courier &amp; Press</a>, Dr. Cokley claims that critical race theory is actually patriotic. He accuses conservatives of pushing a false narrative about critical race theory by claiming it’s “divisive, hostile, and anti-American… and teaches kids to hate each other” which is a “politicized misrepresentation.”
<img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1841" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-19-at-9.24.38-AM.png" alt="" width="453" height="144" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-19-at-9.24.38-AM.png 453w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-19-at-9.24.38-AM-300x95.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 453px) 100vw, 453px" />
Later in the article, Dr. Cokley makes the claim that the first line of the U.S. Constitution, “We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union…” suggests that even our founders believed America is a work-in progress. According to him, critical race theory reminds us that this is still very true.
<img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1842" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-19-at-9.25.31-AM.png" alt="" width="494" height="177" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-19-at-9.25.31-AM.png 494w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-19-at-9.25.31-AM-300x107.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 494px) 100vw, 494px" />
Dr. Cokley <a href="https://redstate.com/alexparker/2021/07/09/usa-today-runs-pro-critical-race-theory-piece-professor-says-crts-not-divisive-or-anti-american-n408847" target="_blank" rel="noopener">defines critical race theory</a> as an idea “which posits that racism is not simply acts of individual bias or prejudice, but rather is embedded in institutions, policies and legal systems.” While he states he has never explicitly taught critical race theory, he does teach ideas consistent with critical race theory by providing students with examples of how Black inferiority and racism are deeply woven into modern school practices. He asserts that conservatives who are against critical race theory are wanting to prevent any type of discussion around racism or putting America in a negative light. Dr. Cokley argues that there is nothing anti-American about acknowledging the fact that racism is woven into the fabric of the United States.
In June of 2021, Dr. Cokley appeared on a <a href="https://www.fox7austin.com/video/690219" target="_blank" rel="noopener">segment for Fox 7 News Austin</a> discussing racial injustices. The video shows violent riots after the death of George Floyd while Dr. Cokley justifies this behavior because of racial injustice in America.

Dr. Vincent was Vice-President for Diversity and Community Engagement at the University of Texas-Austin. On two separate occasions, he condemned an affirmative action bake sale as "demeaning" and "deplorable". Leaving to assume the role of President of Hobart and William Smith Colleges, he later <a href="https://www.jbhe.com/2018/04/gregory-vincent-resigns-as-president-of-hobart-and-william-smith-colleges/">resigned</a> after allegations arose that he plagiarized his doctoral dissertation.

<a href="https://education.utexas.edu/faculty/jennifer_adair">Dr. Jennifer Adair</a> is an Associate Professor at the University of Texas, Austin. Dr. Adair proposed indoctrinating children as young as kindergarten in racial issues, in order to ‘prevent another Ferguson.' One proposed project involved having the students make protest signs about racial injustice or other art projects about school integration or bus boycotts. Adair and the other professors working with her drew heavily from the philosophy of radical historian Howard Zinn in their effort.

<a href="http://liberalarts.utexas.edu/history/faculty/profile.php?id=jn324">Dr. Joan Neuberger</a>, a professor at University of Texas-Austin led anti-campus carry efforts, including a petition to bar students who conceal carry from entering classrooms, in violation of Texas law. A change.org petition organized by the same group said, “WE OPPOSE GUNS IN OUR CLASSROOMS AS A DIRECT ASSAULT ON OUR FREE SPEECH RIGHTS.” Despite her proclamations about the dangers of guns, Neuberger is not actually a statistician or criminal justice professor, but a Russian history professor.

<a href="http://www.utexas.edu/cola/rs/faculty/profile.php?id=jt27">Dr. John Traphagan</a> is a Professor of Religious Studies at the University of Texas, Austin. A Campus Reform article states, "In a column for the Dallas Morning News, University of Texas at Austin professor John Traphagan said Americans are 'unable to handle' gun ownership. According to Traphagan, the U.S. should curtail or eliminate the ability to purchase guns and 'prohibit many forms of gun ownership.'"

<a href="http://journalism.utexas.edu/faculty/robert-jensen">Dr. Robert Jensen</a> is a Professor of Journalism at the University of Texas, Austin. In an essay on a social justice website, Jensen argued that rape is part of the larger violent, patriarchy. He told Campus Reform that, “I don’t believe there will be any serious progress toward eliminating men’s violence against women if we do not address the toxic notions about masculinity in patriarchy—masculinity understood as rooted in control, conquest, aggression.” Jensen also attacked a major anti-sexual assault group for blaming the perpetrators for rape, instead of focusing on the patriarchal culture as the main cause.

<a href="https://liberalarts.utexas.edu/english/faculty/sas347">Snehal Shingavi</a> is an Associate Professor of English at the University of Texas, Austin.

While teaching at the University of California, Berkeley, Shingavi co-founded the anti-Israel group <a href="https://canarymission.org/organization/sjp">Students for Justice in Palestine</a> (SJP) with Professor Hatem Bazian.  SJP is known for its vitriolic campaigns and aggressively confronting Jewish and pro-Israel students on campus. They are also known for their active role in Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) campaigns on university campuses.

Snehal first generated controversy at UC Berkeley in 2002 for his <a href="https://www.meforum.org/campus-watch/7789/hardball-interview-with-snehal-shingavi">course</a>, "The Politics and Poetics of Palestinian Resistance." The course description alleged that Israel has “systematically displaced, killed and maimed millions of Palestinian people.”

The course also all, but outright barred conservative students from attending: “This class takes as its starting point the right of Palestinians to fight for their own self-determination. Conservative thinkers are encouraged to seek other sections.”

Now teaching at UT Austin, <a href="https://canarymission.org/professor/Snehal_Shingavi">Shehal</a> is a regular at protests and events committed to demonizing Israel. During a 2014 lecture, he <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAGtcdPL244&amp;feature=youtu.be&amp;t=13m15s">likened</a> Israel to Nazi Germany, claiming, “This is not me being hyperbolic…..Gaza is the biggest open air concentration camp in the world today and the condition of life in Gaza is not dissimilar to life in Auschwitz and Dachau.”

Thomas K. Hubbard was the James R. Dougherty Jr. Centennial Professor of Classics, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20190905194331/https://minio.la.utexas.edu/colaweb-prod/person_files/0/354/thomas_k_hubbard_curriculum_vitae.pdf">who taught at the University of Texas-Austin from 1988 t0 2021</a>. Hubbard’s body of research included ancient pederasty – adult male sexual relations with underage boys  – which Hubbard calls the “<a href="https://www.dallasnews.com/news/politics/2019/12/17/ut-students-protest-professors-house-over-his-writings-on-sexual-relations-between-men-and-boys/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">romantic courtship</a>” of teenage boys by older men.

Writing in the peer-reviewed Thymos Journal of Boyhood Studies, Hubbard detailed this position in an article titled, <a href="https://www.researchgate.net/publication/276216200_Sexual_Consent_and_the_Adolescent_Male_or_What_Can_We_Learn_from_the_Greeks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sexual Consent and the Adolescent Male, or What Can We Learn From the Greeks</a>.

Hubbard utilizes his research on pederasty to buoy his advocacy for lowering the federal legal age for sexual consent. Hubbard also <a href="https://www.dallasnews.com/news/politics/2019/12/17/ut-students-protest-professors-house-over-his-writings-on-sexual-relations-between-men-and-boys/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">decries age-of-consent laws</a>, calling them a “sad by-product” of the Victorian era that prevented sexual liberation.

Hubbard made the distinction, in a <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200216112913if_/https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wGGrODNSdwudrF1G4uerU2DsRxcSx3DR1Nbn6JOd7ho/edit" target="_blank" rel="noopener">now-deleted google document</a>, that he was speaking on behalf of pederasty and not pedophilia. He continues in the Doc by extolling several nations for having age-of-consent laws that were lower than the United States.

Hubbard’s work has been distributed and used by <a href="https://www.dallasnews.com/news/politics/2019/12/17/ut-students-protest-professors-house-over-his-writings-on-sexual-relations-between-men-and-boys/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">groups like the North American Man/Boy Love Association</a> (NAMBLA), which advocates for the abolishment of age-of-consent laws between children and adults.

The University of Texas-Austin’s administration reaffirmed Hibbard’s right to <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/students-want-thomas-hubbard-fired-for-work-on-pederasty-but-university-of-texas-says-its-protected-speech" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“explore controversial and offensive ideas</a>.” As of December 2020, <a href="https://www.statesman.com/story/news/education/2020/07/23/ut-professor-accused-of-promoting-pedophilia-sues-student-for-libel/42515639/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hubbard is suing a student and 10 others for libel</a> after they distributed flyers labeling him a pedophile.
UPDATE 
A university spokeswoman has informed the Professor Watchlist team that Thomas Hubbard is no longer employed at the University of Texas. As stated in their response, Dr. Hubbard announced his retirement in July of 2021 and is no longer associated with the University in any capacity.

Despite their written statement, <a href="https://cola.utexas.edu/european_studies/people/faculty/thubbard">Dr. Hubbard was still listed on the university website</a> as a professor in the Center for European Studies at the time of the university's letter

John O. Brennan is a <a href="https://intelligencestudies.utexas.edu/about/leadership" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Distinguished Scholar</a> and <a href="https://www.strausscenter.org/person/john-o-brennan/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Senior Advisor to the Intelligence Studies Project</a> at the <a href="https://www.utexas.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of Texas-Austin</a>. Brennan also serves as a <a href="https://www.centeronnationalsecurity.org/fellows#john-o-brennan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Distinguished Fellow for Global Security</a> for the Center on National Security at <a href="https://www.fordham.edu/site/index.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fordham University</a>.

Prior to both roles, Brennan served as the <a href="https://www.britannica.com/biography/John-Brennan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Director of The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) </a>from 2013 to 2017. His service and post-CIA career have been marred with controversies, including allegations of spying on political opponents, overseas clandestine operations, and incendiary comments towards conservatives and libertarians.

In 2014, the CIA was <a href="https://www.npr.org/sections/itsallpolitics/2014/03/11/289085076/feinsteins-cia-outrage-splits-senate" target="_blank" rel="noopener">accused by California Senator Dianne Feinstein of illegally accessing the computers of Senate staffers</a> investigating the use of “enhanced interrogation” against detainees. <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2014/03/brennan-denies-claims-cia-hacked-senate-computers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brennan initially denied the allegations</a>, stating that, “Nothing could be further from the truth.” Brennan was later forced to apologize when an Inspector General report found that <a href="https://thehill.com/policy/technology/213933-cia-admits-to-wrongly-hacking-into-senate-computers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Senate computers were in fact “hacked” by CIA officials</a>.

Brennan has been accused of arming radical Islamists during the Syrian Civil War. As The American Conservative documents, <a href="https://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/how-america-armed-terrorists-in-syria/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The CIA—under Brennan's direction—played a significant role in supplying deadly weapons to al-Qaeda affiliates</a> in an attempt to topple the Syrian dictator Bashar Al-Assad.

In his final years as CIA director, Brennan played a prominent role in what later became known as “Russiagate.” During the 2016 general election, intelligence agencies attempted to determine whether or not then-presidential candidate Donald Trump coordinated with the Russian Government to <a href="https://thehill.com/policy/cybersecurity/288883-wikileaks-posts-20000-dnc-emails" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hack and release sensitive emails from the Democratic National Committee</a>. Special Counsel Robert Mueller later found that there was <a href="https://www.dw.com/en/mueller-report-found-no-evidence-of-trump-russia-collusion-justice-dept/a-48046468" target="_blank" rel="noopener">no evidence of any coordination between the Trump Campaign and the Russian Government</a>.

While investigating Trump, John Brennan relied on allegations in what became known as the “Steele Dossier”— <a href="https://www.npr.org/2017/08/23/545289362/researcher-behind-unverified-trump-dossier-meets-senate-investigators" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a series of salacious allegations and potentially compromising information against Donald Trump</a> — compiled by British Intelligence agent Christopher Steele. The <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/09/steeles-dossier-source-was-a-suspected-russian-spy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">source for the dossier was later found to be a suspected Russian Spy,</a> who likely <a href="https://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/453384-fbis-spreadsheet-puts-a-stake-through-the-heart-of-steeles-dossier" target="_blank" rel="noopener">exaggerated or falsified his information</a>.

Despite <a href="https://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/442944-fbis-steele-story-falls-apart-false-intel-and-media-contacts-were-flagged" target="_blank" rel="noopener">agents flagging the information as false</a>, the Steele Dossier was later used as the basis to <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2019/12/09/ig-report-confirms-no-fisa-warrant-on-carter-page-without-steele-dossier/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">obtain warrants to surveil members of the Trump campaign</a>. Initially pushing to include the information, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2019/12/09/brennan-lied-about-not-including-steele-dossier-in-intelligence-community-assessment-on-2016-russian-election-interference/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brennan later lied under congressional oath, stating he did not include the Steele Dossier in intelligence briefings</a>.

Declassified, handwritten notes from Brennan further show that he assisted in <a href="https://news.yahoo.com/dni-releases-cia-documents-hillary-204337457.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">efforts to tie the Trump campaign to Russia</a> to benefit the Hillary Clinton campaign. This is consistent with testimony accusing <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/national-security/2020/05/12/fox-news-john-brennan-russia-hillary-clinton/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brennan of suppressing intelligence that the Russian Government wanted Hillary Clinton to win</a> the 2016 presidential election.

Brennan continued to publically attack President Trump after the 2016 election, accusing <a href="https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2018/08/19/brennan_on_sunday_i_stand_by_accusing_president_trump_of_treason.html#!" target="_blank" rel="noopener">him of “treason” against the United States on behalf of Russia</a>. Brennan <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2017/05/25/ex-cia-director-john-brennan-ive-seen-no-evidence-collusion-russia/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">admits that he has seen no evidence that Donald Trump colluded</a> with the Russian government to win the 2016 election.

Following the Capital Hill riots, John Brennan <a href="https://twitter.com/tomselliott/status/1352007118392582148?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1352007118392582148%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwearechange.org%2Feven-libertarians-john-brennan-issues-list-of-ideologies-biden-intel-community-should-go-after%2F" target="_blank" rel="noopener">has described libertarians as terrorists and white supremacists</a>.

&nbsp;

On his personal Twitter account, Brennan demands that conservatives need to publically recant their support of Donald Trump and admit that it was wrong to support the President of the United States.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Anyone now seeking national redemption by claiming to no longer support Trump must acknowledge how wrong it was to ignore &amp; enable his corrupt, dishonest, &amp; divisive agenda.
Total denunciation of a despot’s legacy is necessary to eradicate any remaining malignancy.

&nbsp;

Brennan has admitted in the past that he voted for the Communist Party in past elections. According to CNN, Brennan <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2016/09/15/politics/john-brennan-cia-communist-vote/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">recounts</a> that he admitted to voting for the Communist Party Candidate, Gus Hall, in the 1976 general election. Brennan is reported <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2016/09/15/politics/john-brennan-cia-communist-vote/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">stating</a> that voting for Hall was his way of “signaling his unhappiness of the system.”

As The Spectator <a href="https://spectator.org/john-brennans-president-remembering-comrade-gus-hall/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">documents</a>, Gus Hall was a four-time presidential candidate and leader of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA). Throughout his career, Hall defended atrocities committed by the Soviet Union while secretly receiving tens of millions of dollars from the Kremlin.

Dr. Kevin Cokley is the <a href="https://education.utexas.edu/faculty/kevin_cokley" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Department Chair of the Department of Educational Psychology</a> as well as a Professor of African American Diaspora Studies and Professor of Educational Psychology at the University of Texas - Austin. He is a Distinguished Teaching Professor and is published in many outlets, including Journal of Black Psychology, The Huffington Post, and The Hill. Dr. Cokley has taught many courses, some of which are Psychology of African American Experience and Multicultural Counseling.

Dr. Cokley is very openly pro-critical race theory. <a href="https://www.courierpress.com/story/opinion/2021/07/15/viewpoint-teaching-critical-race-theory-patriotic-not-anti-american/7982099002/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In an opinion piece for Courier &amp; Press</a>, Dr. Cokley claims that critical race theory is actually patriotic. He accuses conservatives of pushing a false narrative about critical race theory by claiming it’s “divisive, hostile, and anti-American… and teaches kids to hate each other” which is a “politicized misrepresentation.”

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1841" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-19-at-9.24.38-AM.png" alt="" width="453" height="144" />

Later in the article, Dr. Cokley makes the claim that the first line of the U.S. Constitution, “We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union…” suggests that even our founders believed America is a work-in progress. According to him, critical race theory reminds us that this is still very true.

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1842" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-19-at-9.25.31-AM.png" alt="" width="494" height="177" />

Dr. Cokley <a href="https://redstate.com/alexparker/2021/07/09/usa-today-runs-pro-critical-race-theory-piece-professor-says-crts-not-divisive-or-anti-american-n408847" target="_blank" rel="noopener">defines critical race theory</a> as an idea “which posits that racism is not simply acts of individual bias or prejudice, but rather is embedded in institutions, policies and legal systems.” While he states he has never explicitly taught critical race theory, he does teach ideas consistent with critical race theory by providing students with examples of how Black inferiority and racism are deeply woven into modern school practices. He asserts that conservatives who are against critical race theory are wanting to prevent any type of discussion around racism or putting America in a negative light. Dr. Cokley argues that there is nothing anti-American about acknowledging the fact that racism is woven into the fabric of the United States.

In June of 2021, Dr. Cokley appeared on a <a href="https://www.fox7austin.com/video/690219" target="_blank" rel="noopener">segment for Fox 7 News Austin</a> discussing racial injustices. The video shows violent riots after the death of George Floyd while Dr. Cokley justifies this behavior because of racial injustice in America.

<a href="https://www.wm.edu/sites/dhp/faculty/ciccariello-maher-george.php">Dr. George Ciccariello-Maher</a> is a Visiting Scholar of Decolonizing Humanities and Modern Languages and Literatures at the College of William and Mary. He previously taught in the Department of History and Politics at Drexel University.

From the College of William and Mary's website, his work at the Decolonizing Humanities Project is <a href="https://www.wm.edu/sites/dhp/decoloniality/index.php">described</a> as exploring, “how colonization, modernity, capitalism, and, most recently, neoliberalism has displaced an array of modes of living, thinking and being.  Decoloniality reveals “the dark side of modernity” and how it is built “on the backs” of “others.”

Ciccarello first came to notoriety for his racially inflammatory statements on twitter. On Christmas of 2016, he <a href="https://www.inquirer.com/philly/news/Drexel-officials-Professor-George-Ciccariello-Mahers-White-Genocide-tweet-was-utterly-reprehensible.html">tweeted</a> out,

“All I want for Christmas is White Genocide,”

and,

“To clarify: when the whites were massacred during the Haitian Revolution, that was a  good thing indeed.”

He also tweeted out,

“Some guy gave up his first-class seat for a uniformed soldier. People are thanking him. I’m trying not to vomit or yell about Mosul.”

When Ciccariello was confronted by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndkvgmGIQHQ">Tucker Carlson</a> over his tweets, he only proceeded to double-down. In the following exchange, he defended the academic veracity of his tweets by claiming, “performance art is scholarship.”

Ciccariello doesn’t shy away from utilizing violence to accomplish his radical beliefs. In an op-ed for <a href="https://www.salon.com/2015/05/04/riots_work_wolf_blitzer_and_the_washington_post_completely_missed_the_real_lesson_from_baltimore/">Salon</a>, he praised the riots that had engulfed Baltimore in 2015 in an article titled “Riots Work.” He wrote, “without the threat of insurgency in the streets, no charges would ever have been brought in the murder of Freddie Gray.” Obviously not a proponent of police, Ciccariello openly <a href="https://www.salon.com/2015/04/24/we_must_disband_the_police_body_cameras_arent_enough_only_radical_change_will_stop_cops_who_kill/">advocates</a> for the abolishment of police forces, describing them as, “originally slavecatchers.”

When not calling for the disbandment of our law enforcement, Ciccariello is an ardent defender of the socialist regime in Venezuela. He regularly <a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2013/04/12/thatcher-is-dead-long-live-chavez/">praises</a> Hugo Chavez and has bizarrely <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhYz1owM-uA&amp;feature=youtu.be">claimed</a> that Venezuela does not have corrupt elections.

Ciccariello doesn’t shy away from violent groups as well. In order to fight white-nationalism, Ciccarello called on Americans to embrace the radical group ANTIFA in an interview with <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTv_hqjrmi8&amp;feature=youtu.be">Democracy Now</a> following the El Paso mass shooting. Although committed by a stated white nationalist, in the same interview Ciccariello placed the blame on Donald Trump for the deaths, claiming that his rhetoric on immigrants inspired the shooter’s rampage.  Ciccariello made similar accusations in a prior <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTv_hqjrmi8&amp;feature=youtu.be">interview</a> about the Texas Church Massacre, alluding that “whiteness” and Trump’s stoking of white victimhood was to blame for the murders.

In a book titled <a href="https://books.google.co.il/books?id=SEAeCwAAQBAJ&amp;pg=PA276&amp;lpg=PA276&amp;dq=Russell+Rickford+israel&amp;source=bl&amp;ots=vIzqNlUKjC&amp;sig=KRxT1-8CHqm0mHE_Fr8k_PI9bFQ&amp;hl=en&amp;sa=X&amp;ved=0ahUKEwiqg_3_t-DTAhUDIVAKHUUCDtMQ6AEIRDAG#v=onepage&amp;q=Russell%20Rickford%20israel&amp;f=false">Beyond Boundaries: The Manning Marable Reader</a>, Dr. Rickford alleges that Israel bears ultimate responsibility for the 9/11 terrorist attacks. On page 276, Dr. Rickford states: “The US media and opinion makers repeatedly went out of their way to twist the facts and distort the political realities of the Middle East by insisting that Osama bin Laden’s group’s murderous assaults had nothing to do with Israel’s policies towards the Palestinians. Nobody else in the world, with the possible exception of the Israeli’s, really believes that.”

In a paper for The New Labor Forum (a labor journal published by the <a href="https://slu.cuny.edu/about/murphy-institute/">Murphy Institute</a> at the CUNY School of Labor and Urban Studies) titled <a href="https://newlaborforum.cuny.edu/2015/12/28/black-lives-matter-practice-of-mass-struggle/">Black Lives Matter: Toward a Modern Practice of Mass Struggle</a>, Dr. Rickford praises the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement as having “reinvigorated confrontation politics.” He describes the tactics of BLM as a commitment to “militancy,” referencing their history of “occupying highways, intersections, sporting events, retail stores, malls, campaign events, police stations, and municipal buildings.”

According to a <a href="https://acleddata.com/2020/09/03/demonstrations-political-violence-in-america-new-data-for-summer-2020/">study conducted by the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED)</a>, BLM can be linked to  95% of the riots around the country–notably in Summer 2020 following the death of George Floyd. In an analysis of the study, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/">The Federalist</a> found that “of the 633 incidents coded as riots, 88 percent are recorded as involving Black Lives Matter Activists.” The resulting riots were the largest in American history, <a href="https://fee.org/articles/george-floyd-riots-caused-record-setting-2-billion-in-damage-new-report-says-here-s-why-the-true-cost-is-even-higher/#:~:text=Only%20now%20are%20we%20beginning,%241%20billion%20to%20%242%20billion.">causing an estimated $2 billion in damages and 47 deaths.</a>

Dr. Rickford believes the motivations behind BLM riots are “police aggression and racist violence” instigated by law enforcement.  Dr. Rickford claims that white supremacy serves as the framework of our criminal justice system—causing law enforcement agencies to view BLM protestors as “enemy combatants.”

Throughout his career, Dr. Rickford has delivered racially charged speeches and lectures. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vU8G_neFEOY&amp;ab_channel=CornellReview">During a September 2014 protest at Cornell University, Dr. Rickford can be heard telling students</a> that each of them benefits from white supremacy.

Also in a 2014 lecture captured by The Cornell Review, Dr. Rickford urged his students to find white people that are “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsTQQQmYc88&amp;ab_channel=CornellReview">ready to commit race suicide</a>” on behalf of BLM and other racial justice movements.

&nbsp;

In a video captured at a BLM protest in 2016, Dr. Rickford tells a crowd of students and activists that a segment of white America is “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63J7oUdTQOE&amp;ab_channel=JoelBlizzard">overtly, irredeemably racist.</a>”

&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2019/07/12/lights-of-liberty-vigal-remarks/">In an article for CounterPunch</a>, Dr. Rickford states bluntly that America was founded on genocide and slavery. He made a similar claim in a 2019 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yl2deMaznt8&amp;t=240s&amp;ab_channel=TheColumbusDispatchTheColumbusDispatchVerified">speech</a> at the Vigil to End Human Concentration Camps in Ithaca, NY.

Dr. Monger further uses his classroom to intimidate and bully students if they fail to adhere to Cornell’s COVID-19 policies. In a letter from October of 2021, the professor asks for help in identifying a “hook-nosed” student. He threatens to flunk him, as well as another student who allegedly did not wear their mask in class.

In July of 2021, the university <a href="https://covid.cornell.edu/updates/20210730-indoor-masks.cfm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">mandated masks to be worn indoors at all times, regardless of vaccination status</a>. Cornell additionally <a href="https://covid.cornell.edu/vaccines/vaccination-cornell/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">requires students to be vaccinated against COVID-19 in order to attend classes</a>.

In the course-wide email—obtained by the Twitter handle “<a href="https://twitter.com/libsoftiktok/status/1455022824620376066?s=21" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Libs of Tik-Tok</a>”—Dr. Monger asks for help identifying two students who did not wear masks during the previous class period:

“I wanted to ask for your help in identifying two oceans students who were photographed with their masks off during the oceans class last Friday.”

Dr. Monger proceeds to detail the physical appearance of both students, stating that one had “a fairly prominent hooked nose.” He threatens to fail both students once they are identified by himself or another student.

“If/when I identify the students, I will be failing both of them for the semester as promised I would in class last Wednesday.”

<a href="https://sociology.rutgers.edu/faculty/affliliated-graduate-faculty/541-kumar-deepa">Dr. Deepa Kumar</a> is a Professor of Media Studies as well as Middle Eastern Studies at Rutgers University. She argued on Twitter that the U.S. military is worse than ISIS. Kumar wrote on Twitter, "Yes ISIS is brutal, but US is more so, 1.3 million killed in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan."

<a href="http://womens-studies.rutgers.edu/faculty/core-faculty/143-jasbir-puar">Dr. Jasbir Puar</a>, a professor at Rutgers University, was invited to speak at Vassar. Her lecture was titled “Inhumanist Biopolitics: How Palestine Matters.” In her lecture, she accuses Israel of “stunting” growth of Palestinian bodies through scientific experiment as well as harvesting their organs.

<a href="http://www.kevin-allred.com/">Kevin Allred</a> was an adjunct instructor at Rutgers University. He underwent a psych evaluation after a series of questionable and possibly threatening tweets relating to Trump and the Second Amendment. He also went to Twitter after the election to complain that Rutgers had not publicly ensured the safety of students after Trump won. He also teaches a class called "Politicizing Beyonce". He was <a href="https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2016/11/21/rutgers-places-adjunct-leave-tweets-he-says-were-based-rhetoric-president-elect">placed</a> on administrative leave as of 2016

<a href="https://rcws10.rutgers.edu/faculty/Chikindas/">Professor Michael Chikindas</a>, Rutgers University, posted frequent anti-Semitic comments, at one point referring to Jewish people as “international fat Jewish pockets.” “These jewish [sic] motherf*****s do not control me. They can go f**k each other in their fat a***s - you see, I really do not have anything to loose [sic], hence nothing to be controlled,” he wrote in response to an article titled “The Globalists: Who Control Us!”.

Dr. Markowitz is also an active member of the Communist Party USA since 1978.  He writes and teaches about communism using his “Marxist Perspective.” As a supporter of Obama, Markowitz said that it would be good if Obama’s policies were labeled socialist because it would bring socialism to the forefront and looked at more seriously as a viable option for Americans. He has been a longtime defender of the Communist spies Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, and has said he has “enormous respect” for Howard Zinn, a Marxist historian.

<a href="http://www.polisci.rutgers.edu/cb-profile/userprofile/whfield">Dr. William Field</a>, a professor at Rutgers University, sent out an email to all political science majors and minors to protest against Condoleeza Rice serving as their commencement speaker. He was also said to have congratulated one of the lead organizers of the protest who had damaged university property.

<a href="https://law.rutgers.edu/directory/view/mbk69" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Margo Kaplan</a> is a Professor of Law at <a href="https://law.rutgers.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rutgers University Law School</a> in Camden, New Jersey. According to her university biography, she teaches courses on “Criminal Law, Health Law and Policy, and Sex Crimes” and explores the “legal limitations on intimate decisions.”

Dr. Kaplan has spent her academic career attempting to normalize pedophilia. In a paper for the <a href="https://scholarlycommons.law.wlu.edu/wlulr/vol72/iss1/4/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Washington and Lee Law Review</a>, she advocates for the reclassification of pedophilia as a mental disorder so that pedophiles may be awarded more civil rights:

“...we should not categorically deny pedophilia the civil rights protections afforded to other mental disorders without a convincing normative justification supported by cogent scientific evidence. Strengthening civil rights protections for those with pedophilia also increases access to treatment and support that helps prevent child abuse.”

In a similar piece for the <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/06/opinion/pedophilia-a-disorder-not-a-crime.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York</a><a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/06/opinion/pedophilia-a-disorder-not-a-crime.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Times</a>—titled, "Pedophilia: A Disorder, Not a Crime,"—Dr. Kaplan attempts a sickening effort to lure readers into sympathizing with pedophiles by characterizing pedophiles as adolescents with harmless, childhood crushes.

“THINK back to your first childhood crush. Maybe it was a classmate or a friend next door. Most likely, through school and into adulthood, your affections continued to focus on others in your approximate age group. But imagine if they did not. By some estimates, 1 percent of the male population continues, long after puberty, to find themselves attracted to prepubescent children. These people are living with pedophilia, a sexual attraction to prepubescents that often constitutes a mental illness. Unfortunately, our laws are failing them and, consequently, ignoring opportunities to prevent child abuse.”

Her intellectual sleight of hand is prevalent in both pieces. Kaplan blames the abuse of children partially on what she views as the severity in which society treats pedophilia, resulting in pedophiles abstaining from seeking treatment.

When later interviewed by <a href="https://www.phillymag.com/news/2014/10/06/pedophilia-not-a-crime-rutgers-margo-kaplan/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Philadelphia Magazine</a>, Dr. Kapland claimed to be “shocked” at the amount of support she had received, accusing critics she did have of not even reading her article.

<a href="https://history.rutgers.edu/people/faculty/details/1143-bray-mark">Mark Bray</a> is a part-time lecturer in the Department of History at Rutgers University.

Bray first gained notoriety in 2017 when he <a href="https://www.mhpbooks.com/books/antifa/">authored</a> "The Anti-Fascist Handbook," and offered to <a href="https://campusreform.org/?id=14972">donate</a> half of the proceeds to ANTIFA.

Bray fully endorses ANTIFA’s embrace of violence as a tactic, and often describes it as “self-defense”. He has <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=9616">stated</a> that in order to “preemptively” shut down far-right events and gatherings,  “physical violence against white supremacists is both ethically justifiable and strategically effective.”

Soon after publication, he appeared on NBC to <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/white-house/antifa-violence-ethical-author-explains-why-n796106">defend</a> the use of force against opposing protestors. He claimed that as an illiberal organization, ANTIFA has and will continue to shut down the free speech of the far right.

Bray recently penned an op-ed in the <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2020/06/01/trump-antifa-terrorist-organization/">Washington Post</a> in the midst of mass-rioting following the death of George Floyd. After expressing sympathy with the looters, Bray claims that police officers are, in fact, deadlier than ANTIFA.  He wrote, “...and in the United States, ANTIFA have never killed anyone, unlike their enemies in Klan hoods and squad cars.” 

After his views were <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/red-alert-politics/dartmouth-president-disavows-professor-justified-antifa-violence-self-defense">condemned</a> by Dartmouth University - his employer at the time - Bray soon began lecturing at Rutgers, where his university biography describes him as a “historian of human rights, terrorism, and politics in Modern Europe.”

<a href="https://africanastudies.rutgers.edu/people/core-faculty/people-list/30-faculty/140-brittney-cooper">Brittney Cooper</a> is an associate professor of Africana and Women’s and Gender Studies at Rutgers University. Much of her research and writing centers around the intersections of race, feminism, and gender. Cooper’s work has led her to develop a number of bizarre opinions:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">While Cooper claims that most American Christians worship a God of “white supremacy and patriarchy,” she chooses to<a href="https://www.salon.com/2015/04/01/the_rights_made_up_god_how_bigots_invented_a_white_supremacist_jesus/"> worship a Jesus that was “queer”</a> and “married to a prostitute."</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">White families, like Mitt Romney’s,<a href="https://www.salon.com/2014/01/07/white_supremacy_wins_again_melissa_harris_perry_and_the_racial_false_equivalence/"> can’t properly raise black children</a>.</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Linear time is a product of a Euro-centric world, or in short,<a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/rutgers-professor-even-the-concept-of-time-is-racist/"> our concept of time is racist.</a></li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">A founding principle of our nation is that black people are inhuman, therefore<a href="https://www.salon.com/2015/04/29/black_americas_baltimore_schism_why_the_freddie_gray_tragedy_demands_serious_soul_searching/"> riots are really just resistance</a> against an unjust system.</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">BREXIT was the result of<a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=7760"> white nationalism.</a></li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">And obesity in the black community is<a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=13866"> caused by racism</a>.</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Cooper has publicly attacked conservatives on multiple occasions, most recently during a Livestream commentary on the DNC. Before launching into a tirade accusing Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas for “demolishing the civil rights movement,”</li>
</ul>
Cooper explained<a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=15668"> why American exceptionalism is a myth;</a>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-953 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Screen-Shot-2020-11-03-at-3.46.46-PM-1024x447.png" alt="" width="580" height="253" />
Cooper has attributed most of the deaths from the pandemic to racism and conservatives, stating that, “I feel like most Black people are clear that this utterly absurd push to re-open the country is all about a gross necropolitical calculation that it is Black people who are dying disproportionately from COVID,” and <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/rutgers-university-prof-reopening-the-country-is-about-killing-black-people/">blaming Trump supporters for the hundreds of thousands of deaths</a> due to the coronavirus.

Cooper has previously stated that a conservative’s beliefs are “rooted in racism.” In an appearance on MSNBC, <a href="https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/duncan-schroeder/2020/08/30/deranged-msnbc-pundit-goes-hateful-rant-against-trump-voters">Cooper stated that conservatives have a desire for power</a> at the expense of black and brown Americans.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-954 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Screen-Shot-2020-11-03-at-3.48.15-PM-1024x606.png" alt="" width="580" height="343" />

&nbsp;

Cooper has denigrated conservatives throughout her career along racial lines. <a href="https://www.c-span.org/video/?444245-2/eloquent-rage&amp;playEvent">During a speech in Baltimore</a>, she stated that as white men lose their power, they will continue to “terrorize” black men and women. In a previous thread, she stated that the black community is being eaten alive by “capitalism, patriarchy, and racism,” and white people won’t feel any negative consequences of these systems so long as they can continue to displace white people through systems like gentrification.

Ms. <a href="https://crimjust.rutgers.edu/people/faculty-directory/details/30-faculty/faculty/620-erakat-noura">Noura Erakat</a> is an Assistant Professor of Africana Studies at Rutgers University. According to her university profile, Professor Erakat specializes in fields that include international law, humanitarian law, human rights law, national security law, refugee law, and critical race theory. A harsh critic of the state of Israel, the professor has repeatedly demonized and called for the destruction of the only Jewish state in the world.

Professor Erakat’s work frequently characterizes Israel as a racist state that is equivalent to the apartheid-era South African government. In a November 2019 interview with DemocracyNow, she stated, ”<a href="https://www.democracynow.org/2019/11/19/noura_erakat_israeli_settlements_trump_announcement">we are witnessing the entrenchment of an apartheid regime</a>, and the U.S. [is] at the helm of that process.”

Professor Erakat repeats this false claim to justify her support of the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement. In a November 2020 video panel discussion with the Middle East Institute, Professor Erakat calls on the world <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7S7ZkKMFUuU&amp;t=3956s">to resist and alienate Israel via adherence to a BDS platform</a>.

&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">dismantlement of the state of Israel</a>.

Professor Erakat likewise calls for Israel to be destroyed and replaced by an Arab-majority Palestinian state. As reported by The Spectator in July 2019, Ms. Erakat spoke at an event in Washington, DC, where she <a href="https://spectator.org/noura-erakat-recounts-her-anxiety-over-israels-existence/">advocated for Arabs to “help indigenize” Jews in Israel </a>in order to achieve a sole Palestinian state or a “one-state solution.”

Professor Erakat is far more brazen in calling for the outright destruction of Israel when speaking at anti-Israel protests around the country. During one march in May 2021—captured by News2Share—she called for the <a href="https://twitter.com/FordFischer/status/1393739882825195521/">liberation of Palestine, “from the river to the sea.</a>”

[video width="1280" height="720" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-From-the-River-to-the-Sea-.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

According to the Israeli newspaper Arutz Sheva, the chant, “from the river to the sea,” was <a href="https://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/291203">popularized by terrorist groups such as the Palestinian Liberation Organization</a> (PLO). The phrase alludes to the destruction of Israel—and thus the genocide of the nation’s Jews—between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea. <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/1948/08/02/archives/aim-to-oust-jews-pledged-by-sheikh-head-of-moslem-brotherhood-says.html">The chant is thought to originate from the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hassan el-Banna</a>, who was qouted by The New York Times stating, "If the Jewish state becomes a fact, and this is realized by the Arab peoples, they will drive the Jews who live in their midst into the sea."

Even though Professor Erakat can be heard calling for the “denuclearization of Israel” in the same speech, she had in 2013 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I20HOx5zfv0&amp;ab_channel=JFhsfohhMN">condemned efforts to dismantle Iran’s nuclear program as “racist</a>.”

&nbsp;

She further <a href="https://www.instagram.com/tv/CMzhsZtBfgg/?igshid=5p918cganhq1">defended this position</a> in a video uploaded to her Instagram in March of 2021, arguing there is no contradiction in opposing sanctions for Iran while supporting sanctions on Israel.

During a separate march in May of 2021,  Ms. Erakat can be heard chanting “By spirit and by blood, we redeem you, Palestine!” in front of the Israeli Embassy.

In April of 2020, Noura Erakat’s cousin, Mr. Ahmed Erakat, was killed after <a href="https://www.algemeiner.com/2020/06/29/palestinian-rams-a-checkpoint-death-lies-and-videotape/">ramming his car into an Israeli checkpoint during a failed terrorist attack</a>. Despite the publication of footage verifying the incident and a pipe bomb later being found in the van by investigators, Ms. Erakat continues to claim that he was murdered by Israeli forces.

Dr. James Livingston is <a href="https://history.rutgers.edu/faculty-directory/172-livingston-james" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a tenured Professor of History</a> at Rutgers University. His specialty is listed as Modern US: Intellectual and Economic History. He considers himself an “economic historian” and professionally writes many publications about politics, economics, and working in the United States.

In his personal time, Dr. Livingston often takes to Facebook to discuss similar topics, but in a less professional manner. <a href="https://pen.org/press-clip/white-professor-accused-of-antiwhite-racism/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In a Facebook post from May 31, 2018</a>, Dr. Livingston denounces the white race and belligerently asserts he “hates white people.” Later in the post, he calls white Americans “little caucasian assholes who know their parents will approve of anything they do” and “little shitheads.”

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1630" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Screen-Shot-2021-10-05-at-2.29.30-PM.png" alt="" width="557" height="322" />

&nbsp;

When Facebook flagged the post and took it down, rather than apologize for his racist rant, he posted the following:

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1631" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Screen-Shot-2021-10-05-at-2.30.14-PM.png" alt="" width="604" height="188" />

&nbsp;

Shortly after his anti-white tirade, Rutgers launched an investigation into his posts. The university stated that they received several anonymous complaints about the posts, calling them to take action against the Professor. Dr. Livingston claimed he was making a statement about gentrification and told university officials that white supremacists were sending him threatening messages.

The investigation was headed by Carolyn Dellatore, the associate director of the Office of Employment Equity. <a href="https://www.thefire.org/rutgers-investigation-report/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Her investigation found that</a> “given Professor Livingston’s insistence on making disparaging racial comments, a reasonable student may have concerns that he or she would be stigmatized in his classes because of his or her race. As such, Professor Livingston’s comments have violated university policy.” He argued, however, that his posts were not racist because white people cannot be discriminated against. He also argued that the first amendment gave him the right to freedom of speech.

The university initially decided to sanction Dr. Livingston, but they <a href="https://www.northjersey.com/story/news/2018/11/15/no-punishment-rutgers-university-professor-over-white-people-comments-facebook/2016377002/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ultimately reversed their decision</a> in November 2018, clearing him of all charges. Dr. Livingston is still teaching at Rutgers University today.

The WWP presented itself as a more radical alternative to the socialist parties of the time. The WWP deploys activists to demonstrations all over the country, including the 2017 Inauguration Day riots (<a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/public-safety/protesters-who-destroyed-property-on-inauguration-day-part-of-well-organized-group/2017/01/21/096678c8-dfeb-11e6-ad42-f3375f271c9c_story.html?utm_term=.2647d2b32eb6">J20 Riots</a>), and marches to <a href="https://dailycaller.com/2017/08/16/woman-who-destroyed-durham-confederate-statue-is-a-pro-north-korea-marxist/?utm_campaign=atdailycaller&amp;utm_source=Twitter&amp;utm_medium=Social">topple Confederate statues</a>.

Fivek is a frequent speaker at WWP meetings and often supports replacing capitalism with communism.  She has admitted to her involvement in the organization of the  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0wZV5nB6Sg&amp;t=5s&amp;ab_channel=WorkersWorldParty">J20 Riots</a>, claiming “only communism can smash fascism.”

Fivek has spoken fondly of <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmwr7SSglhM&amp;t=8s&amp;ab_channel=WorkersWorldParty">attending Venezuelan conferences with dictator Nicholas Maduro</a>. A <a href="https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/hayesbrown/a-twitter-account-that-denies-people-are-starving-in-syria-i">2016 Buzzfeed report</a> identified Fivek as the anonymous author of a blog and associated Twitter handle that defended Syrian dictator Bashar Al-Assad, who is known for brutally <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/11/world/middleeast/syria-torture-prisons.html">torturing and murdering Syrian citizens</a>.

Speaking before a 2017 protest, Fivek condemned President Trump’s decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. <a href="https://youtu.be/QdLUHeN5I1U?t=2645">She lauded the “Palestinian Vanguard's,” violent resistance to Israel</a>, praised<a href="https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/palestinian-rocket-and-mortar-attacks-against-israel"> indiscriminate Hamas attacks.</a>  She described Israel as a “Zionist entity” that is at the bidding of globalists and big banks.

Charles HF Davis III

Charles H.F. Davis is an Assistant Professor at the Center for the Study of Higher and Postsecondary Education at the University of Michigan. He previously taught at the University of Southern California. According to his university biography, Davis’s research and teaching focuses on, “race and racism, systems of oppression, and structures of domination in U.S. higher education and its social contexts.”
Davis previously rose to notoriety in 2017 for a series of <a href="https://twitter.com/hfdavis?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor">racially inflammatory tweets</a>. As reported by <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/usc-professor-defends-tweet-promoting-violence-whiteness/">The College Fix</a>, he tweeted that “whiteness” must be destroyed and alluded to the necessity of violence in confronting it.
<img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-1308 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-04-21T135205.941-e1619038447297-1024x278.png" alt="" width="580" height="157" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-04-21T135205.941-e1619038447297-1024x278.png 1024w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-04-21T135205.941-e1619038447297-300x82.png 300w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-04-21T135205.941-e1619038447297-768x209.png 768w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-04-21T135205.941-e1619038447297-1200x326.png 1200w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-04-21T135205.941-e1619038447297.png 1299w" sizes="(max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px" />
The background photo of his Twitter account at the time featured a black woman pointing a gun at a pig that clearly represents a caricature of a police officer. 
When contacted <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/usc-professor-defends-tweet-promoting-violence-whiteness/">The College Fix</a> over his remarks, Davis responded, “To be clear, I am decidedly against whiteness as a social and political ideology, which systematically marginalize and disenfranchise people of color from opportunities for societal advancement. In addition, I am against the institution of policing, which has historically and continuously enacted racial terror, sexual violence, and economic exploitation against racial minorities, women and LGBTQ communities, and economically disadvantaged working-class people.”
When asked if any of these tweets might make students uncomfortable, Davis <a href="http://hfdavis.com/blog/an-interview-with-a-conservative">responded</a> that any discomfort experienced by his white students is a result of their “white fragility.” 
Davis had previously advocated for the right of students to disrupt conservative speakers on campus. In the wake of <a href="https://badgerherald.com/news/2016/11/17/conservative-pundit-ben-shapiro-lectures-to-turbulent-crowd-on-safe-spaces-freedom-of-speech/">protesters heckling</a> Ben Shapiro’s lecture at the University of Wisconsin Madison, school regents approved a <a href="https://www.chicagotribune.com/nation-world/ct-university-of-wisconsin-protest-punishment-20171006-story.html">policy</a> to suspend or expel students that purposefully disrupt events. Davis’s subsequent <a href="https://www.chicagotribune.com/nation-world/ct-university-of-wisconsin-protest-punishment-20171006-story.html">op-ed</a> at Inside Higher Ed argued that this only reinforced white supremacy: “To be clear, it is a decision that reinforces institutionalized white supremacy &#8212; and other oppressive forms of systemic power.” Davis argues that conservative speakers like Shapiro have hijacked the First Amendment to push “white supremacist agendas.”  
Davis’s website, which is listed by the University of Michigan on his biography, <a href="https://static1.squarespace.com/static/51ab9fa0e4b06a38e604420a/t/5edaf71d1ab0434751b2e960/1591408468354/HF+Davis+%E2%80%93%C2%A0EPK.pdf">advertises </a>that he has taught the issues of “ race, racism, and systemic oppression in education and society” to over “7,000 students, educators and institutional leaders.” The <a href="http://hfdavis.com/">home page</a> of the site also features links to organizations that advocate for the Black Lives Matter movement, abolishing the police, and boycotting the nation of Israel.
