<a href="https://www.marymountcalifornia.edu/people/duncan-earle-ph-d/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Duncan Earle</a> is a Cultural Anthropologist and Professor of Global Studies at Marymount California University in Rancho Palos Verdes, California. He is further described in a university interview as a trained “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aq0p6l23aNo&amp;ab_channel=MarymountCaliforniaUniversity" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mayan Shaman.</a>”

During lectures, Dr. Earle advocates further national lockdowns, praises Chinese-style authoritarianism, and even blames the COVID-19 pandemic on environmental damage. The class in question—slides of which were provided exclusively to the Professor Watchlist team by an anonymous source—is Dr. Earle's Cross-Cultural Leadership Seminar which is currently being taught in the Spring 2022 semester.

The introductory PowerPoint berates Americans for refusing to follow the “science” behind COVID-19 and greatly inflates the danger of the pandemic. In the second slide—titled “Nothing is Normal Now”—Dr. Earle erroneously claims that the Covid death count is worse than reported and predicts, with no evidence, that the next variant maybe “as deadly as Ebola”.

*Emphasis has been added to slides by the author of the profile.*

&nbsp;

In further slides, he inflates the COVID-19 death total to “1-5%” of those infected.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1950" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Screen-Shot-2022-02-08-at-5.13.46-PM.png" alt="" width="600" height="362" />

&nbsp;

According to John Hopkins, the United States <a href="https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/data/mortality" target="_blank" rel="noopener">has a mortality rate of 1.2% of those infected</a>. According to the CDC,<a href="https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#demographics" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> 93% of these deaths were individuals 50 and older</a>; the fatality rate is .8% for people aged 18 to 29 and virtually 0% for those under 18.

Furthermore, the <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/health_policy/covid19-comorbidity-expanded-12092020-508.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CDC has noted that only 6% of deaths list COVID as the only cause.</a> Over 75% of COVID deaths occur in patients <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/cdc-director-says-75-of-covid-19-deaths-had-four-or-more-comorbidities" target="_blank" rel="noopener">with 4 or more comorbidities</a>.

Dr. Earle nonetheless attempts to justify lockdowns, writing, “you cannot defeat the virus without closing the economy.”

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1951 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Screen-Shot-2022-02-08-at-5.16.23-PM-1024x576.png" alt="" width="580" height="326" />

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1952 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Screen-Shot-2022-02-08-at-5.19.12-PM-1024x576.png" alt="" width="580" height="326" />

&nbsp;

Dr. Earle offers praise to China’s authoritarian lockdowns and further condemns Sweden for allowing its economy to remain open during the pandemic.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1953 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Screen-Shot-2022-02-08-at-5.24.14-PM-1024x632.png" alt="" width="580" height="358" />

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1954 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Screen-Shot-2022-02-08-at-5.28.06-PM-1024x576.png" alt="" width="580" height="326" />

&nbsp;

A meta-analysis by Johns Hopkins found that <a href="https://sites.krieger.jhu.edu/iae/files/2022/01/A-Literature-Review-and-Meta-Analysis-of-the-Effects-of-Lockdowns-on-COVID-19-Mortality.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lockdowns may have only reduced COVID deaths by .2%</a> while causing spikes in <a href="https://fee.org/articles/domestic-violence-more-than-doubled-under-lockdowns-new-study-finds/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">domestic abuse, drug overdoses,</a> and <a href="https://fee.org/articles/youth-depression-suicide-increasing-during-pandemic-response/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">youth suicides</a>.

In other slides, Dr. Earle depicts Americans as “selfish” and “unpatriotic” individuals who adhere to “conspiracy theories” rather than COVID-19 guidelines.  He further lauds Dr. Fauci and condemns Americans who believe in “conspiracy theories” about him.

&nbsp;

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1955 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Screen-Shot-2022-02-08-at-5.30.45-PM-1024x576.png" alt="" width="580" height="326" />

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1956 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Screen-Shot-2022-02-08-at-5.33.26-PM-1024x576.png" alt="" width="580" height="326" />

&nbsp;

Dr. Earle is referring to allegations that <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/rand-paul-wuhan-documents-fauci-lied" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Fauci funded research at the Wuhan-based lab where COVID is suspected to have originated</a>. Documents obtained by <a href="https://theintercept.com/2021/09/06/new-details-emerge-about-coronavirus-research-at-chinese-lab/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Intercept</a> appear to contradict Dr. Fauci’s sworn testimony that the lab was never funded by the NIH under his direction.

Further slides blame the release of COVID on planetary abuse and that it is amplified by systemic racism.

&nbsp;

<img class="size-large wp-image-1959 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Screen-Shot-2022-02-08-at-5.42.31-PM-1024x588.png" alt="" width="580" height="333" />
<img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-1960" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Screen-Shot-2022-02-08-at-5.43.21-PM-1024x556.png" alt="" width="580" height="315" />
&nbsp;

After stating that America must achieve an 80% immunization rate to stop the pandemic—while everyone wears masks the entire duration—Dr. Earle claims natural immunity is inferior to the immunity provided via vaccination.

&nbsp;

<img class="size-large wp-image-1961 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Screen-Shot-2022-02-08-at-5.45.41-PM-1024x606.png" alt="" width="580" height="343" />

<img class="size-large wp-image-1962 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Screen-Shot-2022-02-08-at-5.45.41-PM-1-1024x606.png" alt="" width="580" height="343" />

&nbsp;

Despite his claims to the contrary, an Israeli study determined those with <a href="https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/312637">natural immunity were 27 times less likely to develop symptomatic COVID and 8 times less likely to be hospitalized with COVID than those who were vaccinated.</a>

During a follow-up exercise, Dr. Earle writes that following the pandemic, there is “no going back to normal.” Instead of going back to pre-Covid conditions, he advocates using the pandemic to combat white supremacy, climate change, and rampant consumerism.

<img class="size-large wp-image-1963 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Screen-Shot-2022-02-08-at-5.50.10-PM-1024x547.png" alt="" width="580" height="310" />

<img class="size-large wp-image-1964 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Screen-Shot-2022-02-08-at-5.51.17-PM-1024x572.png" alt="" width="580" height="324" />
<img class="alignnone wp-image-1964 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Screen-Shot-2022-02-08-at-5.51.17-PM-1024x572.png" alt="" width="580" height="324" />

&nbsp;

Additional assignments are just as partisan as Dr. Earle’s lectures. A portion of one praises the Black Lives Matter movement and condemns conservative states that pass voter integrity laws as “Jim Crow 2.0.”

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1965 size-full" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Screen-Shot-2022-02-08-at-6.01.36-PM-1.png" alt="" width="626" height="596" />

&nbsp;

Another assignment describes the <a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/fbi-confirms-there-was-no-insurrection-on-jan-6/ar-AANxOuQ">2021 Capitol Hill riots</a> as an attack on the capitol by those with a “right-wing perspective” who view non-whites as not “fully legitimate.”  <img class="aligncenter wp-image-1966 size-full" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Screen-Shot-2022-02-08-at-6.09.37-PM-1.png" alt="" width="626" height="346" />

&nbsp;

Prior to publication, the Professor Watchlist team reached out to Dr. Earle for comment. In his response, Dr. Earle asked for our professional qualifications, claimed it would be illegal to share information about his classroom, and accused the profile's author of being a “thief.” He declined to answer any of our questions, other than to claim that his materials are “highly documented” by “people who are experts in their fields.” His full response is included below.

“In a world where people are professional, the first thing they do is present themselves, their qualifications, and their interest in the enquiry [sic], and second explain where they have acquired proprietary information (which belongs to a private institution and is not free to the public, and so illegal to be shared), before attempting to interrogate me or anyone else on our expertise.  For the record, all my material, now dated, was highly documented by people who are expert in their fields, and if you were, you would not have to ask me.  So what are your qualifications, other than thief?”

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.

<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.

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.

The organization is <a href="https://www.fdd.org/in_the_news/2021/05/26/faq-hamas/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">responsible for the death of thousands of Israelis and at least 25 Americans</a>.

In a lecture dated to 2009, Denis Sullivan can be heard <a href="https://vimeo.com/127604352" target="_blank" rel="noopener">trivializing Hamas atrocities during a lecture about foreign relations with Israel</a>. In the clip, captured by the organization <a href="https://canarymission.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Canary Mission</a>, Dr. Sullivan begrudgingly admits that Hamas is a terrorist organization, but proceeds to praise them for having “great healthcare and kindergartens."

Further in the same lecture, while discussing peace negotiations, Dr. Sullivan claims that it’s irrelevant that Hamas will not recognize the right of Israel to exist.

According to reports from the group <a href="https://www.peaceandtolerance.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Americans for Peace and Tolerance (APT)</a>, Dr. Sullivan <a href="https://www.peaceandtolerance.org/2014/02/26/northeastern-universitys-islamists/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">regularly assigns extreme anti-Israel materials in his class</a>. One text is, “<a href="https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/233020/the-holocaust-industry-by-norman-g-finkelstein/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Holocaust Industry</a>,” by author and former professor, Norman Finkelstein. The book alleges that Israel uses the Holocaust to shield itself from criticism when committing war crimes on par with that of the Nazis.

“The Holocaust has proven to be an indispensable ideological weapon. Through its deployment, one of the world’s most formidable military powers, with a horrendous human rights record, has cast itself as a “victim” state, and the most successful ethnic group in the US has likewise acquired victim status.” - Norman Finkelstein, The Holocaust Industry

Another assigned text is titled, “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Ethnic-Cleansing-Palestine-Ilan-Pappe/dp/1851685553" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine</a>'' by IIan Pappe. The book falsely charges Israel with committing mass genocide and ethnic cleansing of the region’s Arabs during the nation’s founding.

Dr. Sullivan has directed numerous university-sponsored trips to introduce students to meet Syrian and Egyptian officials. As APT has documented, his students met with at least one Egyptian minister <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9mmOilcDA4&amp;ab_channel=apeacet" target="_blank" rel="noopener">who believes in the antisemitic conspiracy that Jews manipulate and control the world economy</a>.

In addition to his duties in the Middle East Center, his biography lists him as a member of the organization, “Human Rights Watch.” The group has been <a href="https://legalinsurrection.com/2021/04/experts-slam-human-rights-watch-for-biased-and-inaccurate-report-accusing-israel-of-apartheid/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">accused by a number of watchdog organizations of publishing slanted and falsified information about Israel</a>. The organization has become so maligned, that its founder, Robert Bernstein, once lambasted his organization for <a href="https://archive.ph/b1E3q" target="_blank" rel="noopener">focusing its efforts solely on Israel while ignoring actual authoritarian regimes</a>.

Updated - November 30, 2021

<a href="https://cssh.northeastern.edu/faculty/shahid-alam/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Shahid Alam</a> is a professor of economics at <a href="https://www.northeastern.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Northeastern University</a> in Boston, Massachusetts. After immigrating to the United States from Pakistan, Dr. Alam began working for Northeastern in 1988 where he serves as the academic advisor for the group Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP).

Infamous for sympathy towards Islamic terrorism in his work, Dr. Alam has authored pieces justifying suicide bombers, compared the 9/11 highjackers to America’s founding fathers, and repeated antisemitic libels while supporting the BDS movement.

BDS—which stands for Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions—is an international movement with a singular focus on boycotting, divesting, and levying sanctions against the world’s sole Jewish state. The movement’s co-founder—Omar Barghouti has admitted that once <a href="https://www.israellycool.com/2020/06/02/watch-bds-co-founder-omar-barghouti-admits-their-goal-is-destruction-of-israel/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">these planks are implemented, they will destroy Israel</a>.

In a piece for the site, CounterPunch, Dr. Alam pens a <a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2002/07/29/the-academic-boycott-of-israel/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">full-throated defense of BDS</a> as a necessary tactic to confront Israel. While characterizing the Jewish state as not a “normal country,” he falsely accuses Israel of constructing an “apartheid state” to commit genocide against Arabs.

Dr. Alam uses his accusation as justification for <a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2002/07/29/the-academic-boycott-of-israel/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">then-ongoing waves of suicide bombers in Israel</a>, writing, “dispossession is implemented by force-unless this project is aided by pathogens; and, it follows, that resistance to the colonizer must be violent.”

An “intifada”—Arabic for “uprising”—refers to a series of Palestinian insurrections within Israel. From 2000-2005, the Second Intifada—known as the <a href="https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/background-and-overview-of-al-aqsa-intifada" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Al-Aqsa Intifada</a>,”—claimed over 1,100 lives. During this period, terrorist groups like Hamas deployed <a href="https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/comprehensive-listing-of-terrorism-victims-in-israel" target="_blank" rel="noopener">suicide bombers and gunmen to target civilians in crowded areas to maximize casualties</a>.

In a separate piece, Dr. Alam again praises suicide bombers, <a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2002/04/03/thomas-friedman-s-lies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">writing that they seek to become martyrs in order to bring “honor” to their nation:</a>

“The Oxford English dictionary defines a suicide as “one who dies by his own hand.” This definition is clearly inadequate. In the absence of a motive, we cannot distinguish between (i) a person who takes his life because he wants to die and (ii) a person who takes his life because this will save her soul-or her honor, her family, her friends, her community, or her country. The first suggests suicide; the latter is ordinarily regarded as a martyr. Judge for yourself then whether the Palestinians are suicides or martyrs.” 

This is not a solitary instance of which Dr. Alam has sought to justify Islamic terrorism. In an article from 2004, he <a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2004/12/29/seeking-parallels/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">compared the 9/11 hijackers to America’s Founding Fathers</a>. 

“The colonists had a dream worth pursuing. They were prepared to die for this dream ­and to kill. They did: and they won…On September 11, 2001, nineteen Arab hijackers too demonstrated their willingness to die — and to kill — for what they believed was their dream. They died — so they thought — because they wanted their people to live, free and in dignity.” 

The prior year, Dr. Alam wrote that <a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2003/01/02/why-9-11-and-why-now/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the attacks themselves were not in any way unique, and in fact, paled in comparison to the atrocities committed by the United States</a>.

“[The 9/11]  attacks pales into insignificance when compared to the worst terrorist acts perpetrated by states, not excluding United States, over the past five-hundred years.”

In further articles, Dr. Alam depicts Jews in explicit, antisemitic terms. He accuses Jews of using their religion to justify genocide, manipulating the media, possessing dual loyalty, citing the Holocaust for sympathy, and directing America to launch foreign wars on Israel’s behalf:

- One article for CounterPunch decries <a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2003/04/05/israelization-of-the-united-states/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Jewish money” swaying elections on behalf of Israel.</a>

- Another piece <a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2009/08/21/zionism-an-quot-abnormal-quot-nationalism/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">accuses Jews of seeking to “compensate” for the absence of a messiah</a> by launching a colonial, genocidal project in Palestine with the assistance of American Christians.

- One accuses <a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2010/12/07/unvarnished-truths-about-the-us-and-israel/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jewish organizations of policing and directing the media to proliferate “Israeli lies.”</a>

- Dr. Alam’s book, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0230614841/thewisdomfund?pldnSite=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Israeli Exceptionalism</a>, accuses <a href="https://electronicintifada.net/content/zionisms-destabilizing-force-israeli-exceptionalism-reviewed/3569" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jews and Zionists of partnering with the Nazis</a> prior to World War 2.

- The same book describes <a href="http://www.twf.org/News/Y2010/0623-Review.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">neoconservatives as a “mostly Jewish elite” who shape America’s institutions for Israel’s benefit</a>.

- Yet another article accuses <a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2003/02/19/israel-s-proxy-war/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">American Jews and Israel of directing the United States to invade Iraq</a> to distract the world from their alleged genocide of the Palestinians.

- Dr. Alam goes so far as to accuse <a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2002/04/18/a-colonizing-project-built-on-lies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jews of weaponizing the Holocaust</a> to elicit sympathy and distract the world from their own human rights abuses.

- In an op-ed for the Egyptian state-owned newspaper Al-Ahram, Dr. Alam <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20070601183749/http://weekly.ahram.org.eg/2007/846/op5.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">accuses Jews of using their Judaism—or what he mocks as their “chosenness” by God—to excuse racism and ethnically cleanse Palestine</a>.

Rather than hide or justify his views, Dr. Alam seems delighted by accusations of antisemitism. In a leaked lecture, Dr. Alam can be heard advising students to wear allegations of antisemitism “as a badge of honor.”

<a href="https://www.northeastern.edu/law/faculty/directory/williams-p.html">Patricia Williams </a>is a Professor of Law and Humanities at Northeastern University. Williams, in an editorial for The Nation, wrote " the history of the right to bear arms is shaped by exclusionary privilege based on race and gender. It is almost exclusively white men who may “reasonably” carry firearms to protests outside Target or political conventions", although still 20% of Hispanic and African-American homes own guns according to Pew research.

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.

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 loading="lazy" 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" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-09-at-9.43.29-AM.png 554w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-09-at-9.43.29-AM-300x99.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 554px) 100vw, 554px" />
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:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Dorinda Carter Andrews - &quot;I am a critical race theorist&quot;" width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8cIOWFdt-Os?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
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 loading="lazy" 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" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-09-at-9.44.57-AM.png 440w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-09-at-9.44.57-AM-300x125.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px" />
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:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">

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.

<a href="http://philosophy.emory.edu/home/people/faculty/yancy-george.html">Dr. George Yancy</a> is a Professor of Philosophy at Emory University.  A Red Alert Politics article states "Nothing says “Merry Christmas” like a letter to white Americans calling them  racist. Make no mistake, if you are white, you are racist. As The Blaze pointed out, black professor George Yancy called on white America to examine the 'racist poison that is inside of you.' And Yancy means all white America."

Dr. <a href="https://www.professorcarolanderson.org/about" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Carol Anderson</a> is the <a href="http://aas.emory.edu/home/people/bios/anderson-carol.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Charles Howard Candler Professor and Chair of African American Studies</a> at <a href="https://www.emory.edu/home/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Emory University</a> in Atlanta, Georgia. She has ascribed the passage of the Second Amendment to white supremacy, and accused conservatives of trying to make America a “whites only” nation.

Dr. Anderson is the author of, “<a href="https://www.professorcarolanderson.org/the-second" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Second: Race and Guns in a Fatally Unequal America</a>.” The book alleges the true purpose of the Second Amendment is the denial of rights to African Americans.

In a subsequent interview with CNN, Dr. Anderson claims the <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2021/05/30/us/second-amendment-guns-anti-black-anderson-blake/index.html?utm_term=link&amp;utm_source=twCNN&amp;utm_content=2021-06-01T03%3A42%3A56&amp;utm_medium=social" target="_blank" rel="noopener">intention of the right to keep and bear arms was ultimately to empower militias to keep black Americans, “under the boot” of white supremacy</a>. At one point, she claims the second amendment is about “anti-blackness”, or antithetical to the well-being and rights of African-Americans:

<img class="size-large wp-image-1574 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-09-14T175033.334-e1631667053699-1024x356.png" alt="" width="580" height="202" />

She further states that America’s gun culture is fueled by a “fear” of black people and that “anti-blackness” courses through our nation's history.

Dr. Anderson first rose to national prominence in 2014 for her Washington Post article attributing the Ferguson Riots to “white rage.”

The unrest stemmed from an altercation involving Michael Brown and police officer Darren Wilson. Brown had been pulled over by Wilson over suspicion of his involvement in a strong-arm robbery in a nearby convenience store. During the stop, witnesses testified that <a href="https://nypost.com/2014/08/19/witnesses-say-ferguson-teen-attacked-cop-before-shooting/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brown attempted to grab Officer Wilson’s gun</a> before turning and running away. When ordered to halt, Brown turned and charged Officer Wilson, who then fatally shot Brown in self-defense.

Although Wilson was later exonerated for his actions,<a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/hands-up-dont-shoot-makes-wapos-list-of-outlandish-claims" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Black Lives Matter activists promoted the false narrative that Brown was shot with his hands up while attempting to surrender.</a> After a grand jury declined to indict Officer Wilson, <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2850383/A-town-ravaged-anger-pictures-extent-damage-buildings-Ferguson.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">rioters and looters burned stores and restaurants across the city of Ferguson</a>, Missouri.

In the piece, Dr. Anderson <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/ferguson-wasnt-black-rage-against-copsit-was-white-rage-against-progress/2014/08/29/3055e3f4-2d75-11e4-bb9b-997ae96fad33_story.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">insinuates that riots are effective as the only method that residents of Ferguson can utilize to make their voices be heard.</a> Stating the “real rage” is represented in the attempts by conservative movements and police to disenfranchise African-Americans. She dismisses the destruction as not a product of “black rage”, but rather the “latest outbreak of “white rage.”

The article was later expanded into the book, “<a href="https://www.professorcarolanderson.org/white-rage" target="_blank" rel="noopener">White Rage, The Unspoken Truth of Our Racial Divide</a>.” When Emory University featured the book on their website, Dr. Anderson further defined white rage as, “<a href="https://news.emory.edu/stories/2016/05/upress_white_rage_anderson/campus.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">policymakers and a series of courts systematically undercut the advancement of African Americans</a>.” Dr. Anderson would go on to author an article for Time Magazine accusing “patriots” who are afflicted with "white rage" 0f <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20170421064019/https://time.com/4573307/donald-trump-white-rage/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">trying to make America a “whites only” county</a> and attempting to revive a “Jim Crow nation.”

<img class="wp-image-1575 size-large aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-09-14T175253.822-e1631667201908-1024x476.png" alt="" width="580" height="270" />

Dr. Anderson regularly lectures at colleges and universities across the country. In 2021, it was discovered that Dr. Anderson’s work had been <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/politics/gop-army-vet-congressman-seeks-answers-critical-race-theory-west-point" target="_blank" rel="noopener">featured in a lecture by the Army Cyber Institute at West Point University</a>.

The Professor Watchlist Team has reached out to Carol Anderson for comment but has not received a response by the time of publication.

Students attending DePaul are not allowed to chalk political messages around campus. In a campus-wide email Zdziarski said, “The university has been addressing campus climate issues in an effort to provide an inclusive and supportive educational environment. In this context, many students, faculty and staff found the chalk messages offensive, hurtful and divisive.” These messages included pro-Trump and pro-police slogans.

Dr. Sumi Cho is a <a href="https://law.depaul.edu/faculty-and-staff/Documents/Cho%20cv.10.2018.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tenured law professor at DePaul University College of Law.</a> Dr. Cho lectures on many subjects for the university but most commonly teaches a Critical Race Theory seminar and courses on Employment Discrimination, Feminist Jurisprudence, and Race, Racism &amp; U.S. Law.

In 2018, DePaul University <a href="https://depauliaonline.com/38281/news/front-news-law-school/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">began an investigation into Dr. Cho</a> after claims of “disruptive, bullying workplace behavior” came to light. Pending an internal investigation, she faced two years of unpaid suspension. Dr. Cho then countersued against DePaul University and the law school’s Dean. In the suit against the Dean, Dr. Cho alleged she was retaliated against for being outspoken on racial issues and discrimination within the law school, claiming she and others were racially discriminated against. In the suit against the university, she claimed she was not getting equal pay to white, male cohorts. The racial claims in her lawsuit were dismissed, and the university settled in mediation for the Equal Pay Act case.

His public statements and denials stand in contradiction to past social media posts in which Dr. Suleiman called for a third Intifada, compared Israel to Nazi Germany, and described Zionists as, “enemies of God.”
In now-deleted tweets from 2014, Dr. Suleiman celebrates what he hopes will become the “Third Intifada.”

An intifada—Arabic for “uprising”—refers to a series of Palestinian insurrections within Israel. From 2000-2005, the Second Intifada—known as the <a href="https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/background-and-overview-of-al-aqsa-intifada" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Al-Aqsa Intifada</a>,”—claimed over 1,100 Israeli lives.

The <a href="https://www.investigativeproject.org/documents/misc/135.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Muslim Brotherhood is a Sunni Islamist movement founded in Egypt</a> whose adherents seek to implement Sharia (Islamic) Law in public life. The motto of the Brotherhood is a reflection of this exact ambition,
“God is our goal, the Quran is our Constitution, the Prophet is our leader, struggle [jihad] is our way, and death in the service of God is the loftiest of our wishes. God is great. God is great.”  
Many organizations supported by Dr. Suleiman maintain active connections to the Brotherhood. He <a href="https://www.meforum.org/campus-watch/58573/omar-suleiman-and-the-vile-propaganda" target="_blank" rel="noopener">raises money for the anti-Israel group American Muslims for Palestine</a> (AMP) and has <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJwSwk7Nsbo&amp;ab_channel=BluePeace" target="_blank" rel="noopener">spoken at the conferences of the Islamic Society of North America</a> (ISNA). Dr. Suleiman <a href="https://www.cair.com/press_releases/dr-omar-suleiman-to-offer-address-for-dec-4-cair-annual-gala/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">has further associations with the Council of American Islamic Relations (CAIR)</a>.
CAIR, ISNA, and AMP are regarded to be front groups for the Muslim Brotherhood in the United States. ISNA and the predecessor to AMP (the Islamic Association for Palestine) are identified in <a href="https://www.investigativeproject.org/documents/misc/20.pdf#page=21" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Muslim Brotherhood documents as organizations to further the group’s goals in North America</a>. Members of CAIR were recorded by the FBI in a <a href="https://www.investigativeproject.org/282/cair-executive-director-placed-at-hamas-meeting" target="_blank" rel="noopener">1993 meeting in Philadephia discussing how to assist the terrorist group Hamas </a>in derailing the then-ongoing peace negotiations in Israel. The latter was submitted as evidence in the Holy Land Foundation terrorism financing trial in which CAIR and ISNA were implicated by the Justice Department.
Once the largest Muslim charitable organization in the United States, the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development (HLF) and five of its leaders were <a href="https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/federal-judge-hands-downs-sentences-holy-land-foundation-case" target="_blank" rel="noopener">convicted in 2008 for funneling over $12 million dollars to Hamas</a>. CAIR and ISNA were <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/2010/10/unindicted-coconspirators-andrew-c-mccarthy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">both labeled as unindicted co-conspirators in the terror-financing trial</a>.
Despite the evidence, Dr. Suleiman continues to align with CAIR and alleges that the convicted HLF members are innocent. In an article for <a href="https://religionnews.com/2021/10/11/3932775/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Religion News Service,</a>  Dr. Suleiman describes those convicted as “political prisoners&#8221; and innocent of any crimes. He further decries their conviction and the war on terror at-large as a campaign of “perpetrated bigotry” against Muslims.
Dr. Suleiman has additionally defended Aafia Siddiqui, also known as “lady Al-Qaeda.” Siddiqui is currently <a href="https://archives.fbi.gov/archives/newyork/press-releases/2010/nyfo092310.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">serving an 86-year sentence for attempting to murder US soldiers in Afghanistan</a>.

Other Facebook posts compare Israel’s treatment of Palestinians to the Nazi treatment of Jews during the Holocaust.

Another post describes supporters of Israel as enemies of God and “humanity as a whole.”

&nbsp;

In a now-deleted Facebook post from 2013, Dr. Suleiman posted the “Rabaa” hand gesture which is universally understood in the Middle East as a <a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2013/09/what-this-hand-gesture-means-for-egypts-future/279730/">signal of support for the Muslim Brotherhood</a>.

The <a href="https://www.investigativeproject.org/documents/misc/135.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Muslim Brotherhood is a Sunni Islamist movement founded in Egypt</a> whose adherents seek to implement Sharia (Islamic) Law in public life. The motto of the Brotherhood is a reflection of this exact ambition,

“God is our goal, the Quran is our Constitution, the Prophet is our leader, struggle [jihad] is our way, and death in the service of God is the loftiest of our wishes. God is great. God is great.”  

Many organizations supported by Dr. Suleiman maintain active connections to the Brotherhood. He <a href="https://www.meforum.org/campus-watch/58573/omar-suleiman-and-the-vile-propaganda" target="_blank" rel="noopener">raises money for the anti-Israel group American Muslims for Palestine</a> (AMP) and has <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJwSwk7Nsbo&amp;ab_channel=BluePeace" target="_blank" rel="noopener">spoken at the conferences of the Islamic Society of North America</a> (ISNA). Dr. Suleiman <a href="https://www.cair.com/press_releases/dr-omar-suleiman-to-offer-address-for-dec-4-cair-annual-gala/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">has further associations with the Council of American Islamic Relations (CAIR)</a>.

CAIR, ISNA, and AMP are regarded to be front groups for the Muslim Brotherhood in the United States. ISNA and the predecessor to AMP (the Islamic Association for Palestine) are identified in <a href="https://www.investigativeproject.org/documents/misc/20.pdf#page=21" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Muslim Brotherhood documents as organizations to further the group’s goals in North America</a>. Members of CAIR were recorded by the FBI in a <a href="https://www.investigativeproject.org/282/cair-executive-director-placed-at-hamas-meeting" target="_blank" rel="noopener">1993 meeting in Philadephia discussing how to assist the terrorist group Hamas </a>in derailing the then-ongoing peace negotiations in Israel. The latter was submitted as evidence in the Holy Land Foundation terrorism financing trial in which CAIR and ISNA were implicated by the Justice Department.

Once the largest Muslim charitable organization in the United States, the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development (HLF) and five of its leaders were <a href="https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/federal-judge-hands-downs-sentences-holy-land-foundation-case" target="_blank" rel="noopener">convicted in 2008 for funneling over $12 million dollars to Hamas</a>. CAIR and ISNA were <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/2010/10/unindicted-coconspirators-andrew-c-mccarthy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">both labeled as unindicted co-conspirators in the terror-financing trial</a>.

Despite the evidence, Dr. Suleiman continues to align with CAIR and alleges that the convicted HLF members are innocent. In an article for <a href="https://religionnews.com/2021/10/11/3932775/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Religion News Service,</a>  Dr. Suleiman describes those convicted as “political prisoners'' and innocent of any crimes. He further decries their conviction and the war on terror at-large as a campaign of “perpetrated bigotry” against Muslims.

Dr. Suleiman has additionally defended Aafia Siddiqui, also known as “lady Al-Qaeda.” Siddiqui is currently <a href="https://archives.fbi.gov/archives/newyork/press-releases/2010/nyfo092310.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">serving an 86-year sentence for attempting to murder US soldiers in Afghanistan</a>. During her trial, the sole woman ever convicted for aiding Al-Qaeda's leadership <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210302092227/https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/aafia-siddiqui-demands-no-jewish-jurors-at-attempted-murder-trial-mgdmczpxtxp" target="_blank" rel="noopener">asked jurors to undergo DNA tests to ensure that none were Jews</a>.

<a href="https://polisci.ucsd.edu/people/faculty/faculty-directory/adjunct-faculty/fletcher-profile.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nathan Fletcher</a> is a Professor of Practice in the Department of Political Science at the University of California &#8211; San Diego. The University <a href="https://ucsdnews.ucsd.edu/feature/nathan_fletcher_named_first_professor_of_practice_at_uc_san_diego" target="_blank" rel="noopener">describes</a> the position as one that brings “distinguished professionals” who are “leaders in their fields.”  In addition, Fletcher serves as the <a href="https://www.sandiegocounty.gov/general/bos.html">Chair</a> of the San Diego County Board of Supervisors.
During an online strategy session with California Democratic Party leaders to oppose the ongoing efforts to recall Governor Gavin Newsom, Fletcher began his <a href="https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/communities/east-county/santee/story/2021-02-11/santee-council-approves-letter-chastising-county-supervisor-nathan-fletcher" target="_blank" rel="noopener">remarks</a> referencing the January 6th riots on Capitol Hill.
According to <a href="https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displayText.xhtml?lawCode=CONS&amp;article=II" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Article II, Section 13-20 of the  California Constitution</a>, a sitting Governor of the state may be recalled, or voted out of office, in the middle of his term for virtually any reason. An election for governor is automatically triggered if petitioners gather enough signatures to match 12% of the total voter turnout of the previous Governor&#8217;s election, equivalent to 1.5 million signatures in 2021, within 160 days of initially filing the petition. As of February 2021, organizers <a href="https://www.ktvn.com/story/43421481/petition-to-recall-governor-gavin-newsom-passes-level-needed-to-potentially-trigger-recall-election">announced</a> that 1.8 million Californians have signed the recall petition.
Fletcher labels President Donald Trump an existential threat to our country, then proceeds to refer to conservatives that are taking part in the recall effort of Gov. Newsom as “Neo-Nazis” and white supremacists.
In the Zoom <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyfhl9SLAjI&amp;ab_channel=KUSINews" target="_blank" rel="noopener">recording</a> that is listed below, Fletcher refers to the riots as “terrorism” and asks his fellow Democratic party members to denounce them. Fletcher references his combat experience as a Marine to draw parallels between his training to defend American embassies to the “storming” of the capitol by “enemies of America.”
<iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/qyfhl9SLAjI" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
&nbsp;
Describing the riots as a “direct attack on our democracy,” Fletcher assigns blame to Donald Trump as the inspiration for the riot at the Capitol.

Fletcher states that he and his fellow Democrats must take a stand against the groups that are encouraging violence on our democracy, which he lists as right-wing militia groups, the Proud Boys, and white nationalists.
In the same <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyfhl9SLAjI&amp;ab_channel=KUSINews" target="_blank" rel="noopener">video</a> addressed to Democratic party officials and supporters, Fletcher goes on to state that individuals leading the recall efforts are linked to “neo-nazis, white supremacists, and members of right-wing militias.”

<a href="https://www2.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/schools/kennedyhs/staff/directory/">Casey Siddons</a> is an Academy Coordinator and IB teacher at JFK High School in Silver Springs, Maryland.
Addressing students in a Zoom-call call following the January riots in the Nation&#8217;s Capitol, Siddon describes the rioters as “insurrectionists” that have been fed “conspiracy theories” by right-wing outlets like Fox News. Siddons then condemns President Trump&#8217;s cabinet members as “cowards” for refusing to invoke the 25th Amendment to remove President Trump from office. Under the <a href="https://constitutioncenter.org/interactive-constitution/blog/can-the-cabinet-remove-a-president-using-the-25th-amendment">25th Amendment</a>, the sitting Vice-President and the Cabinet may vote to remove a sitting President from Office if “the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office.”
Siddons then denies ANTIFA&#8217;s existence to his students stating that they are “not even a real group.” Answering a student who asks whether Trump will try to blame ANTIFA for the riot, he tells his students that Trump and “all the right-wing news organizations” will still try to shift the blame to ANTIFA.

As <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/dhs-leaked-email-confirms-that-antifa-is-an-organized-group">reported</a> byThe Post-Millennial, leaked emails from the Department of Homeland Security show that law enforcement agencies identify ANTIFA as an existing organization that engages in “organized” rather than sporadic violence. Many <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/guns-knives-and-other-weapons-confiscated-from-suspects-at-portland-antifa-riot/">members arm themselves with knives and firearms</a> at protests, which frequently descend into violence. Members of ANTIFA <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/antifa-burn-american-flags-storm-courthouse-portland">attacked</a> a Federal Courthouse in Downtown Portland in March of 2021 and, also <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/us-attorneys-office-in-dc-refuses-to-investigate-attack-on-rand-paul/">reported by The Post Millennial</a>, attacked Senator Rand Paul and his wife in Washington D.C. during the summer of the previous year.
Siddons later states that black men and women “saved our democracy” by electing Senators Warnock and Ossoff in Georgia.

Siddons went on to allege that only one party is standing for democracy based on the events of the prior day.

Siddons then turns his attention to any students in his class who might not think that racism exists in America. Siddon states that a stark difference exists between how the rioters were treated at the Capitol and how black protestors are treated, claiming this contrast as proof that racism still exists in America. Siddons cites how BLM rioters were “tear-gassed by police” during the summer riots of 2020, and characterizes the rioters at the Capitol on January 6 as “allowed” entry into the Capitol by virtue of their skin color.

Siddons then alleges that treating people of color unequally may be traced back all the way to the Reagan Administration.

University of Texas - Austin

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://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 <a href="https://www.dallasnews.com/opinion/editorials/2019/12/18/a-ut-professor-advocates-pedophilia-why-are-we-paying-for-it/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claims</a> that there are great benefits to relationships between older men and teenage boys by appealing to the portrayal of these relationships in Greek artworks and myths.

Hubbard also <a href="https://www.dallasnews.com/opinion/editorials/2019/12/18/a-ut-professor-advocates-pedophilia-why-are-we-paying-for-it/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">states</a> that sexual relationships between teenage boys and adult men can replace the lack of intimacy that a boy might experience if the young man has an absent father.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1058 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-58-e1611867905859-1024x596.png" alt="" width="580" height="338" />

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.

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. The clip can be viewed <a href="https://www.fox7austin.com/video/690219" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

<a href="https://dornsife.usc.edu/cf/faculty-and-staff/faculty.cfm?pid=1034060">Alicia Chavez</a> is an Assistant Professor of American Studies and Ethnicity at the University of Southern California. In her classes, Chavez forbids her students from using the term, “illegal immigrant.”

&nbsp;
Censorship
As <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=8518">reported</a> by Campus Reform, Chavez <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=8518">taught </a>a course called, “America, the Frontier, and the New West.”  The course description <a href="https://classes.usc.edu/term-20163/classes/amst/">states</a> that the class is an “Introduction to an interdisciplinary study of American political, cultural and social life with a particular emphasis on the Western United States as a region.” According to USC’s course <a href="https://classes.usc.edu/term-20163/classes/amst/">description</a>, the course also qualifies the satisfaction of the core curriculum requirement for undergraduate students.

According to Campus Reform, Chavez sent an email to her class, via her teaching assistant Julia Chea, <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=8518">ordering</a> students to refrain from using the term “illegal immigrant” on the course's final exam. The email reads as follows,

According to the Washington Examiner, Chea then <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/red-alert-politics/professor-bans-phrase-illegal-immigrant-threatens-students-exposed">discovered</a> that students who received her email were sharing it on their respective social media accounts. She then sent out an additional email to the students in her class that read as follows,

“Dear students, NONE of you have my permission to screenshot emails sent to the class so that you may post them on Facebook. Not only is it in bad taste, but you would do well to avoid violating classroom and university policies regarding confidentiality. Your friend has ratted you out.”

In a <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=8518">statement </a>given to Campus Reform, an unnamed student who shared the initial email called the decree “just one of the many instances of anticonservative bias” at USC and represents an “attack on intellectual freedom and free speech.”

The Professor Watchlist Team reached out to Chavez for comment but has not received a response by the time of publication.

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.

Dr. Armour is notable for his advocacy on behalf of District Attorneys (DAs) supported by George Soros while he served as a fellow of George Soros' Open Society Foundation.

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/9-things-you-need-know-about-george-soros-aaron-bandler" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A Hungarian-born billionaire</a>, George Soros and The Open Society Foundation donate billions of dollars to progressive causes across the country, totaling <a href="https://www.opensocietyfoundations.org/who-we-are/financials" target="_blank" rel="noopener">over $18 billion dollars over the past 35 years</a>. The Foundation’s operating budget for 2020 alone was 1.4 billion dollars.

The <a href="https://nypost.com/2021/12/16/how-george-soros-funded-progressive-das-behind-us-crime-surge/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">beneficiaries of Soros’s philanthropy are progressive District Attorneys who run on issues such as ending cash bail and “mass incarceration</a>.” Author, Matt Palumbo, has <a href="https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2021/11/08/matt_palumbo_how_george_soros_overhauled_the_us_justice_system.html#!" target="_blank" rel="noopener">documented tens of millions of dollars flowing from Soros and the Open Society Foundation</a> to campaigns of far-left DAs across the country.

Once elected, they immediately begin to decriminalize or refuse to prosecute certain “non-violent” crimes such as robbery, drug possession, and vandalism. This sometimes includes more serious offenses. The Soros-backed DA for Chicago, <a href="https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2021/10/decriminalizing_gang_bangers_soros_prosecutor_kim_foxx_declines_to_charge_five_arrested_in_fatal_gang_shootout_citing_mutual_combatants.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kim Foxx, cited “mutual combat” in her decision to decline prosecution of a fatal gang shooting</a>.

<a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/02/the-deadly-consequences-of-defund-the-police/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Coupled with the nationwide defunding of police departments</a>, cities with Soros-funded DAs are witnessing record levels of crime. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/twelve-major-cities-with-new-homicide-records-in-2021-all-led-by-democrats" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Twelve major US cities broke homicide records in 2021.</a>

Officially titled the Soros Justice Senior Fellow of The Open Society Institute’s Center on Crime, Communities and Culture, Dr. Armour works not only to promote radical, criminal justice reform but uses his position within USC’s Law School to recruit Soros-backed, far-left DAs across the country.

Dr. Armour frequently hosts these DAs as part of his lecture series at the USC College of Law. One is Los Angeles County DA, George Gascon, who is known for his <a href="https://www.heritage.org/crime-and-justice/report/george-gascon-rogue-prosecutor-whose-extreme-policies-undermine-the-rule" target="_blank" rel="noopener">radical stances and failure to prosecute </a>serious offenses.

Gascon’s office has been criticized for <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/crime/2021/12/07/convict-arrested-for-murder-of-jacqueline-avant-as-l-a-faces-violent-crime-surge-in-wake-of-reforms/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">releasing criminals who would later go on to commit violent crimes</a>. In 2021, a <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/01/17/la-da-ripped-after-child-molester-faces-little-or-no-time/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">transgender woman who raped a 10 year-old girl in a bathroom</a> received a substantially reduced sentence based on recommendations from Gascon’s office.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aziluYm1Kbk&amp;ab_channel=USCGouldSchoolofLaw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">During their conversation</a>, Dr. Armour audibly agreed with Gascon as he claimed that the police originate from slave patrols in the antebellum south.

[video width="960" height="540" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Armour-George-Soros-Part-2.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

During one point, Gascon compared the arrests of homeless people to confinement in a concentration camp, even stating that if a person is assaulted by a vagrant in front of their “million-dollar condo,” the solution is not to arrest or institutionalize them.

[video width="960" height="540" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/My-Movie-1.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

A notable portion of Dr. Armour’s conversation with Gascon is when both described their efforts to elect progressive DAs in cities across the country. Gascon even bragged about how $50 million raised by George Soros and the ACLU was used to recruit and fund the campaigns of like-minded DAs across the country.

&nbsp;

One DA singled out for praise in their conversation is the District attorney of Philadelphia, Larry Krasner, whom Dr. Armour hosted at USC’s Law School on two separate occasions. Dr. Armour has praised Krasner—who self-identifies as a “prison abolitionist”— <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfPSYQRHP9Y&amp;ab_channel=USCGouldSchoolofLaw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">as the most “transformational” politician in the last 50 years.</a>

Elected in 2017—<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vyh5Il__MH0&amp;t=4s&amp;ab_channel=USCGouldSchoolofLaw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">while running on ending cash bail and mass incarceration in the city</a>—Krasner has since overseen a record-breaking crime wave in Philadelphia, with the<a href="https://www.city-journal.org/philadelphia-breaks-homicide-record" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> city recording over 500 murders in 2021 alone</a>.

During a separate, Krasner bragged about his refusal to prosecute certain crimes in his jurisdiction—namely drug offenses—while in office. This decision has drawn criticism from prosecutors who accuse Krasner of failing to keep violent criminals off the street.

<a href="https://www.inquirer.com/news/us-attorney-william-mcswain-district-attorney-larry-krasner-police-shooting-cpl-james-oconnor-20200316.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">US Attorney, William McSwain, attributed this policy to the death of James O’Connor, a Philadelphia police officer</a>. O’Conner was murdered by a career criminal, Hassan Elliot while serving an arrest warrant. Krasner’s office had previously released Elliot for drug possession, which was a violation of his parole, with no bail.

Dr. Armour further used the event to recruit for Krasner’s office. As part of his nationwide tour, Kranser used his platform to recruit Dr. Armour’s students to intern and eventually work in his office, which Dr. Armour enthusiastically supported.

The full interview with Krasner may be watched below.

<a href="https://www.uh.edu/class/ccs/people/nicholas-de-genova/">Dr. Nicholas De Genova</a> is a professor and the Chair of the Department of Comparative Cultural Studies at the University of Houston. His university biography describes him as a scholar of migration, borders, citizenship, labor, critical race, postcolonial, and ethnic studies. Dr. De Genova is an ardent advocate for abolishing national borders and has called for the death of American soldiers.
In an interview for the <a href="https://lnu.se/en/research/searchresearch/linnaeus-university-centre-for-concurrences-in-colonial-and-postcolonial-studies/">Centre for Concurrences in Colonial and Postcolonial Studies</a>, Dr. De Genova <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkF0I1Z9eGo">describes his work in postcolonial studies</a> as taking the free movement of people across borders as a “natural element of the human condition.&#8221; At one point in the interview, Dr. De Genova implies that national borders should be abolished.
&nbsp;
<div style="width: 640px;" class="wp-video"><video class="wp-video-shortcode" id="video-0-3" width="640" height="360" preload="metadata" controls="controls"><source type="video/mp4" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Nicholas-De-Genova-If-there-were-no-borders......mp4?_=3" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Nicholas-De-Genova-If-there-were-no-borders......mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Nicholas-De-Genova-If-there-were-no-borders......mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
Continuing, Dr. De Genova states that <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkF0I1Z9eGo">national borders are the most violent divisions that humanity has constructed</a>.
&nbsp;
<div style="width: 640px;" class="wp-video"><video class="wp-video-shortcode" id="video-0-4" width="640" height="360" preload="metadata" controls="controls"><source type="video/mp4" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/De-Genova-Borders-are-the-most-violent.....mp4?_=4" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/De-Genova-Borders-are-the-most-violent.....mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/De-Genova-Borders-are-the-most-violent.....mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
Throughout his work, Dr. De Genova claims that borders are used to elicit racial strife. In a piece written for the Journal of the American Anthropological Association, Dr. De Genova alleges there are <a href="http://www.americananthropologist.org/2020/03/23/everything-is-permitted-trump-white-supremacy-fascism/">parallels between Trump’s policies on the US-Mexico border and a “brutal and bellicose racial nativism” of conservative support for restrictive immigration policies. </a>
In the same paper, Dr. De Genova describes conservatives as fascists who are fomenting a racial civil war against people of color and illegal immigrants through the enforcement of immigration laws. He states:

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

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

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