<a href="https://spo.princeton.edu/people/pedro-meira-monteiro" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pedro Meira Monteiro</a> is the Arthur W. Marks ‘19 Professor of Spanish and Portuguese and Chair of the Department of Spanish and Portuguese at Princeton University.
In April 2024, Monteiro signed a “<a href="https://www.dailyprincetonian.com/article/2024/04/princeton-opinion-opguest-faculty-staff-solidarity-palestine-protestors-columbia-barnard-encampment" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Statement of solidarity with Columbia University students from Princeton faculty and staff</a>.” The statement came after student protestors established a “Gaza Solidarity Encampment” on the lawns of Columbia University, disrupting campus operations, sparking safety concerns, and causing classes to be <a href="https://www.tpusa.com/live/columbia-university-moves-classes-online-as-pro-palestine-protests-spark-safety-concerns" target="_blank" rel="noopener">held remotely</a> for the remainder of the semester.
The statement begins:
“We, Princeton University faculty and staff, affirm our solidarity with and support for the Columbia University and Barnard College students who are continuing to demand that the university divest from Israel’s genocide in Gaza and ongoing occupation of the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and other Palestinian land.” 
The signatories have committed to boycotting Columbia University and Barnard College until several demands are met, including:
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“We call upon the Columbia University administration to reinstate those students who were wrongfully suspended for exercising their constitutionally recognized right to speech and peaceful assembly.”</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“We demand that all charges be dismissed and expunged from their student records, and that all rights and privileges be restored to them immediately.”</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“We call upon the Columbia University administration to remove the New York City Police Department from campus. All criminal charges that have been brought against student protestors who were arrested by the NYPD at the behest of the university administration should be dropped immediately.”</li>
</ul>
The faculty and staff have also called for the university to reverse the suspension of two student groups, Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine and Columbia Jewish Voice for Peace. They concluded their statement with the following:
“We vow to withhold our academic labor from Columbia and Barnard, not to participate in conferences and other campus events, and not to collaborate with university institutions until such time as the administration has met these demands and demonstrated its commitments to upholding the well-established norms of unrestricted scholarly inquiry and academic freedom.”

Princeton Bioethics Professor Peter Singer made headlines after sharing his views on sex acts with animals. On November 8, 2023, Singer shared what he called a “thought-provoking article” titled “<a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mOOHWhgfENSAz-Bl7kQb9fPHHzRqh9Dm/view" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Zoophilia Is Morally Permissible</a>.” Singer said that “[the article] challenges one of society's strongest taboos and argues for the moral permissibility of some forms of sexual contact between humans and animals.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Another thought-provoking article is "Zoophilia Is Morally Permissible" by Fira Bensto (pseudonym), which is just out in the current issue of <a href="https://twitter.com/JConIdeas?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@JConIdeas</a>.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

The article Singer referred to states that “[s]ex with animals is a powerful social taboo that exposes its practitioners to utmost indignation and stigma.” The piece also claims, “Many people who have sex with animals do not strictly speaking have a zoophilic orientation, but use animals as surrogates for human sex partners.”
The New York Post <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/11/11/lifestyle/princeton-professor-ignites-outrage-by-calling-journal-article-about-sex-with-animals-thought-provoking-someone-check-his-hard-drive/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">noted</a> that Singer followed up his original post with an essay on Facebook where he clarified:
“I didn’t write the article on the permissibility of zoophilia [but] I am a co-editor for that journal. The fact that we judge an article worthy of publication does not indicate that I or my co-editors agree with the views contained in it…The Journal of Conversational Ideas is free and open access for everyone to read…
“Now imagine that you are an animal living with a person who cares for you and loves you in all the ways that most people love their companion animals, but in addition, this person sometimes has sexual contact with you, making sure that the contact does not hurt you, and leaving you free to move away if you don't like it…”

One commenter said Singer was “adopting the language of predator abusers, the same words used to dismiss and denigrate [rape] survivors.”

In a <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/peter-singer-compares-abortion-to-turning-off-a-computer/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">National Review article</a> titled, “Peter Singer Compares Abortion to Turning Off a Computer,” the author writes, “To understand Singer’s perspective: He doesn’t believe that human life has moral value simply because he or she is human. Rather, value has to be earned, primarily be being self-aware or able to value life [sic]. He argues that self-aware entities are ‘persons’ —including some animals.”

National Review continued, “[Singer] also believes that non-self-aware beings—including human infants, unborn babies, and people who have serious dementia, persistent unconsciousness or minimal consciousness—are not persons. Non-persons, in his view, have lower moral value than persons and can be killed or used instrumentally for the benefit of persons…”

__________________________
Peter Singer is a Professor of Bioethics at Princeton University. As a philosopher and self-identified “<a href="https://longtermrisk.org/hedonistic-vs-preference-utilitarianism/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hedonistic utilitarian</a>,” Dr. Singer holds a number of controversial views on human and animal ethics. These include stances on abortion, euthanasia, and infanticide.

More than an advocate for abortion, Dr. Singer claims there is nothing inherently immoral about killing a child.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DB5IZXGmk08&amp;feature=emb_title" target="_blank" rel="noopener">During a debate at Harvard University</a>, Dr. Singer recognized that fetuses in the womb are living human beings. However, he added people—including those not yet born—have varying degrees of value based on whether or not they feel pain.

He further claimed that only people who are fully conscious or feel pain have a right to their own lives. Abortion, he argued, cannot be considered immoral. Dr. Singer acknowledges that his stance presents a “challenging” problem regarding recently-born children.
<iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/DB5IZXGmk08" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>

Dr. Singer has also justified infanticide for babies who are disabled or have serious health conditions. In the 1979 edition of Practical Ethics, he wrote: “<a href="https://archive.org/details/practicalethics0000sing/page/n3/mode/2up" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Killing a defective infant is not morally equivalent to killing a person. Sometimes it is not wrong at all</a>.”

Many have accused <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/human-exceptionalism/peter-singer-eugenicist-wesley-j-smith/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Singer of being sympathetic to eugenics</a> due to his apparent empathy towards parents who <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/human-exceptionalism/peter-singer-eugenicist-wesley-j-smith/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">select particular genes in human fetuses for more desirable children</a>.

During a 2015 radio interview, Dr. Singer argued that it was “reasonable” <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/ethics-professor-kill-severely-disabled-infants-under-obamacare/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">to euthanize disabled infants to prevent higher premiums under Obamacare</a>. In a Q&amp;A hosted on his personal website, Dr. Singer <a href="https://petersinger.info/faq/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claims that newborns are not persons as they have “no sense of the future</a>.”

“[Killing] a newborn baby is never equivalent to killing a person, that is, a being who wants to go on living.”

Dr. Singer added that although killing an infant is a “terrible thing to do,” parents should have the freedom to end the life of their newborn. He added that the presiding doctor would then take steps to “swiftly and humanely” end the child’s life.

According to his biography, Dr. Singer <a href="https://uchv.princeton.edu/people/peter-singer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">has been teaching at Princeton since 1999</a>. He authored other books on utilitarianism, veganism, and animal liberation.

According to her University biography, Dr. Taylor is a scholar of racial inequity in public policymaking, and writes “extensively” about race, politics, and “radical activism.”

As a Professor and political commentator, Dr. Taylor offers her opinion across a wide variety of social media platforms and media outlets. She is known to condemn capitalism, the United States, and Israel while lauding socialism and the Soviet Union.

On her personal <a href="https://twitter.com/KeeangaYamahtta" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Twitter account</a>, Dr. Taylor smears Israel as a racial, apartheid state that actively commits genocide against Arabs in the Middle East. In one tweet, she alleges that Israel is attempting to “annihilate” Palestine:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
The consequence of apartheid is not separation, it’s annihilation. End the occupation, free Palestine <a href="https://t.co/2jUOpL3oBq" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://t.co/2jUOpL3oBq</a>
— Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor (@KeeangaYamahtta) <a href="https://twitter.com/KeeangaYamahtta/status/1392287946653503490?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">May 12, 2021</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

&nbsp;

In another post, she flagrantly alleges that Israel is engaged in the ethnic cleansing of the West Bank and Gaza, despite the <a href="https://www.camera.org/article/methodist-staffer-demonizes-israel-reveals-ignorance/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">resident Arab population quadrupling since 1948</a>,
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
What we are witnessing is not the “eviction” of Palestinians from their homes. This is ethnic cleansing. This is the most basic expression of settler colonialism. This is the illegal and immoral expulsion of Palestinians with the expectation they are “accepted” elsewhere. <a href="https://t.co/erLUdzIdP8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://t.co/erLUdzIdP8</a>
— Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor (@KeeangaYamahtta) <a href="https://twitter.com/KeeangaYamahtta/status/1392286002950164480?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">May 12, 2021</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

&nbsp;

Dr. Taylor likewise alleges the United States is a brutally racist and oppressive society. In an article for the Marxist publication, Jacobin,<a href="https://www.jacobinmag.com/2019/05/reparations-slavery-racism-united-states-foundation" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> she depicts racism as foundational to the United States</a>.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1846" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-11-19T122121.004-e1637349803441-1024x363.png" alt="" width="500" height="177" />

A frequent critic of policing, which she views as systemic racism embedded in the United States, Dr. Taylor lauds the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement as a “liberation struggle.” With communist, vice-presidential candidate, and Black Panther Party member, <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/angeladavis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Angela Davis</a>, writing the forward, Dr. Taylor’s book—<a href="https://www.haymarketbooks.org/books/1646-from-blacklivesmatter-to-black-liberation-expanded-second-edition">From #BlackLivesMatter to Black Liberation</a>—she praises the movement for having “awakened a new generation of activists” that will fight for “black liberation.”

BLM was <a href="https://blacklivesmatter.com/six-years-strong/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">founded following the death</a> of Treyvon Martin and the trial of George Zimmerman for his murder. After a jury acquitted Zimmerman in 2013, <a href="https://patrissecullors.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Patrice Cullors</a> joined with <a href="https://aliciagarza.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Alicia Garza</a> and <a href="https://www.opaltometi.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Opal Tometi</a> to found an organization, <a href="https://blacklivesmatter.com/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">as stated on its website</a>.

“....whose mission is to eradicate white supremacy and build local power to intervene in violence inflicted on black communities by the state and vigilantes.” 

BLM came to further prominence following the <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/gunshots-looting-after-grand-jury-in-ferguson-case-does-not-indict-officer-in-michael-brown-shooting" target="_blank" rel="noopener">riots in Ferguson, Missouri</a> in reaction to the acquittal of police officer Darren Wilson in the shooting of robbery suspect, Michael Brown. Although later determined that Brown had attacked the officer, <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/hands-up-dont-shoot-makes-wapos-list-of-outlandish-claims" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BLM was instrumental in spreading the lie</a> that Brown was shot at point-blank range with his hands raised.

In an interview with the progressive news outlet, DemocracyNow, in June of 2020, Dr. Taylor praises the BLM movement’s fight against systemic racism, stating that our nation is witnessing <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMOG-W_X9m8&amp;ab_channel=DemocracyNow%21" target="_blank" rel="noopener">an “uprising” against “racial terrorism” being inflicted upon black Americans by police officers</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–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, “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>

&nbsp;

In separate Twitter posts, Dr. Taylor has condemned capitalism as being inherently exploitative while promoting the merits of socialism.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
There is no good US capitalism. The so called golden age of capitalism relied on shackling women to the home, bolting LGBT people in the closet, restricting immigration to Europeans, &amp; segregating Black people into resource starved enclaves. Capitalism has always been the problem

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

&nbsp;

Dr. Taylor’s positive view on socialism extends to the embrace of communist dictatorships. While attending the “This is Socialism!” conference in 2017, Dr. Taylor delivered a speech that <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndSASqMLYMg&amp;ab_channel=WeAreManyMedia" target="_blank" rel="noopener">praised the Russian Revolution</a> for its inspiration towards American communists and "revolution" against capitalism.

&nbsp;

Despite her praise, the Bolshevik Revolution and the resulting formation of the Soviet Union cost millions of lives. Upon overthrowing the Russian government in October 1917, Vladimir Lenin immediately set up <a href="https://duckduckgo.com/?q=lenin%27s+red+terror&amp;atb=v263-1&amp;ia=web" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a series of concentration camps for political prisoners and led the Soviet secret police in a brutal crackdown</a> known as the “Red Terror.” As many as one million people perished before the carnage ended with the cessation of the Russian Civil War in 1921. Over the course of the USSR's existence, as <a href="https://fee.org/articles/the-staggering-toll-of-the-russian-revolution/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">many as 60 million people perished under Soviet rule</a>.

In recognition of her work, Dr. Taylor was <a href="https://aas.princeton.edu/news/2021-macarthur-fellow-keeanga-yamahtta-taylor" target="_blank" rel="noopener">awarded a MacArthur Foundation “Genius” Award</a> in 2021.

Best was featured in a 2020 Princeton press release titled <a href="https://www.princeton.edu/news/2020/09/30/wallace-best-leads-program-gender-and-sexuality-studies-dynamic-new-era" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Wallace Best leads the Program in Gender and Sexuality Studies into a dynamic new era</a>. In the article, Best responds to questions regarding his experience with feminine studies. When asked, “What is the value of studying gender and sexuality studies in the current era in America?,” Best said:
“It’s interdisciplinary in that it’s connected to more historically formal disciplines like sociology, political science and religion, but draws each in robust and engaging ways. I think about what’s happening with the Black Lives Matter movement, for example. Some of that activist work is born from the scholarship within the intellectual orbit — scholars who have centered issues of gender and sexuality in its inextricable connection to race, class, location and ethnicity.” 
He continued,
“So, when I see those protests, I feel quite proud that some of what the leaders say is born from the discourses of feminism, Black feminism, queer studies, and from gender and sexuality studies. So, I would say this is one of the most exciting times to be involved in this field.”
Best also holds a Ph.D. in Religion. His areas of research and teaching include African American religious history, religion and literature, Pentecostalism, and Womanist theology. One course Best teaches, <a href="https://religion.princeton.edu/courses/spring-2022/black-women-and-spiritual-narrative" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Black Women and Spiritual Narrative</a>,” focuses on “the hypothesis that religious metaphor and symbolism have figured prominently in Black women’s writing across literary genres.” He’s currently working on a book entitled “The Spiritual Capital of Black America: Twentieth Century Harlem’s World of Religion and Churches.”

McClintock is the author of “<a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/Imperial_Leather/wRwiAQAAQBAJ?hl=en&amp;gbpv=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Imperial Leather: Race, Gender and Sexuality in the Colonial Contest</a>.” The publisher notes that the book “chronicles the dangerous liaisons between gender, race and class that shaped British imperialism and its bloody dismantling.” In one chapter called The White Family of Man, she says,
“King Solomon’s Mines was [sic] intimately concerned with events in South Africa following the discovery of diamonds and then gold: specifically, the reordering of women’s sexuality and work in the African homestead and the diversion of black male labor into the mines.”
She continues, 
“The Story illuminates not only relations between the imperial metropolis and the colonies but also the refashioning of gender relations in South Africa, as a nascent capitalism penetrated the region and disrupted already contested power relations with the homesteads.”
In 2019, McClintock was among several Princeton faculty members who participated in a campus strike. <a href="https://paw.princeton.edu/article/princeton-students-faculty-join-community-climate-strike" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Princeton Alumni Weekly</a> listed her as an event speaker in a protest to “demand climate justice.” That same year, she was also featured in The Nation’s article titled “<a href="https://www.thenation.com/article/archive/princeton-students-are-sitting-in-for-title-ix-reform/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Princeton Students are Sitting in for Title IX Reform</a>.” This protest was organized after “believe all women” posters appeared in campus bathrooms and “Title IX protects rapists” was graffitied on a walking path.

Her university profile says she “specializes in the interdisciplinary study of science, medicine, and technology with a focus on the relationship between innovation and social equity.” 

Professor Benjamin is the author of several publications including a book titled “<a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/Race_After_Technology/G6-hDwAAQBAJ?hl=en&amp;gbpv=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Race After Technology: Abolitionist Tools for the New Jim Code</a>.” The book explores how “emerging technologies can reinforce White supremacy and deepen social inequity.”

The introduction contains a section called Race as Technology where she states that technology is “designed to separate, stratify, and sanctify the many forms of injustice experienced by members of racialized groups, but one that people routinely reimagine and redeploy to other ends.”
<img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-2358" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/PWL-QUOTES-12-e1665699428164-1024x407.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="254" />
In a <a href="https://youtu.be/rY8RkET3KC0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">video discussing her reasons for writing</a> “Race After Technology,” Benjamin gave an example of how technology is racist. She said, “Two friends [were] using an automated soap dispenser and the soap wouldn’t come out [for] the individual with darker skin because darker skin absorbs light. So if it’s infrared technology, it’s not going to work as effectively.”

Professor Benjamin <a href="https://youtu.be/_8RrX4hjCr0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">also gave a Ted Talk</a> where she used laboratory and park benches to discuss how “the idea of discriminatory design is a global phenomenon.” She also says, “I think at the heart of discriminatory design is this idea that we can create technological fixes for social crises…we create short-term responses that often get the issues out of sight, out of mind.”

Salamon was quoted stating that she aimed to “carefully study the misrecognition at the heart of the case and how gender identity was misread as sexual identity.”

“We rise in coalition with the students, scholars, and people of conscience resisting the forces currently deployed to silence, mischaracterize, and criminalize dissent on college campuses and beyond…A culture of intimidation, silencing, and punishment is now moving across the United States and around the world.”
Salamon and the FJP further declared “support for those in Palestine who have called for Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS)...” The letter ends with a call for an “end to Israeli occupation and apartheid and for a free Palestine…”

Gayle Salamon is a <a href="https://english.princeton.edu/people/gayle-salamon" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Professor of English and Gender and Sexuality Studies</a> at Princeton University. Salamon’s faculty profile says her research interests include phenomenology, feminist philosophy, queer and transgender theory, contemporary Continental philosophy, and disability studies.

In Salamon’s Introductory to Gender and Sexual Studies course, she tackles questions such as: “What does it mean to be a woman or a man? Or neither?” “How do gender and sexuality, those seemingly most personal and private of attributes, emerge from networks of power and social relations?”

Her published works include two manuscripts, <a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/Assuming_a_Body/s-idAwAAQBAJ?hl=en&amp;gbpv=1&amp;dq=assuming+a+body&amp;printsec=frontcover" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Assuming a Body: Transgender and Rhetorics of Materiality,”</a>  and<a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/The_Life_and_Death_of_Latisha_King/bb84DwAAQBAJ?hl=en&amp;gbpv=1&amp;dq=the+life+and+death+of+latisha+king&amp;printsec=frontcover" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> “The Life and Death of Latisha King: A Critical Phenomenology of Transphobia."</a> She also published a peer-reviewed article titled <a href="https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/The-Meontology-of-Masculinity%3A-Notes-on-Castration-Salamon/3784451626c47802e5acd00654de96bf5a7f8222#paper-header" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Meontology of Masculinity: Notes on Castration Elation</a>. (Meontology is the philosophical study of non-being.)

In the Meontology of Masculinity abstract, Salamon cites LGBT “scholars” and says, “Gender is a matter of behavior, but also a result of ‘the more subtle channels of posture, carriage, gaze, and manner of leaning into some (more masculine) things away from other (more feminine) things.’ [Gender scholars] call for a phenomenology of lived gender experiences, to do justice to the variety of ways in which gender can be experienced and also perceived.”

In a <a href="https://thecriticallede.com/066-interview-with-gayle-salamon-author-of-assuming-a-body/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2012 podcast interview with The Critical Lede,</a> Salamon discussed her book “Assuming a Body.” In thinking about the idea of “a man trapped in a woman’s body, and a woman trapped in a man’s body,” she said, “I keep looking for a book that was going to engage both of those things at the same time…My hope was to try to bring together some of the ideas about how we come to inhabit our bodies [and] what is the relationship between the body that everybody else in the world sees and the body that I feel myself to have.”

<a href="https://politics.princeton.edu/people/richard-falk" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Richard Falk</a> is a Professor of International Law and Practice at Princeton University and a Research Associate at the Orfalea Center of Global Studies at the University of California - Santa Barbara. 

Dr. Falk has labeled Israel a racist, apartheid state that’s committing an ongoing genocide. 

The term “apartheid” refers to the legal system of <a href="https://www.britannica.com/topic/apartheid/Opposition-to-apartheid" target="_blank" rel="noopener">racial discrimination and separation in South Africa</a> from the 1950s to 1994. He has further alleged the true identity of the 9/11 hijackers has been covered up and blamed Israel for terrorist attacks in America. 

In an article titled, “<a href="http://www.oldsite.transnational.org/Area_MiddleEast/2007/Falk_PalestineGenocide.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Slouching toward a Palestinian Holocaust</a>,” Falk compares Israel’s treatment of the Palestinians to the extermination of the Jews in the Holocaust. He claims that Israel’s actions are “morally far worse” than the genocides committed in Rwanda, Bosnia, and Darfur.

Further in the article, Falk defends the terrorist organization Hamas as the duly elected representative of the Palestinian people. He claims the group has renounced violence and is willing to make peace with Israel. 

During a separate interview with DemocracyNow!, Falk praised the group for its “spirit of resistance” and again claimed that Hamas seeks “peaceful, co-existence with Israel.”

An Islamist terrorist group, Hamas’s charter calls for the <a href="https://avalon.law.yale.edu/20th_century/hamas.asp" target="_blank" rel="noopener">destruction of Israel and the death of all Jews:</a>
“Israel will rise and will remain erect until Islam eliminates it as it had eliminated its predecessors.” - Hamas Charter
The organization is known to <a href="https://palwatch.org/page/18217" target="_blank" rel="noopener">deploy suicide bombers</a> and <a href="https://legalinsurrection.com/2019/05/prelude-to-war-palestinian-terrorists-fire-hundreds-of-rockets-at-israel-from-and-to-civilian-areas/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fire rockets</a> that target civilian areas; Hamas is responsible for the deaths of <a href="https://www.fdd.org/in_the_news/2021/05/26/faq-hamas/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">thousands of Israelis and at least 25 Americans</a>. 

Despite his views, Dr. Falk was chosen by the United Nations to serve as the Special Rapporteur on Palestinian Human Rights. From this position, he accused Israel of ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in a report titled,”<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20170316054753/https://www.unescwa.org/sites/www.unescwa.org/files/publications/files/israeli-practices-palestinian-people-apartheid-occupation-english.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Israeli Practices toward the Palestinian People and the Question of Apartheid.</a>” 

The report maligns Israel as a “racial state” that pursues “racial domination” and forcible displacement of the Palestinians. Falk recommends that Israel be investigated by the International Criminal Court and that international governments hold unilateral trials for Israeli officials. 

He urges businesses to boycott the state as part of the BDS campaign. BDS—short for Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions—embraces 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. 

Following the publication of the document, Dr. Falk doubled down on his stance in an interview with The Forward, further calling for the <a href="https://forward.com/news/breaking-news/164986/richard-falk-calls-for-corporate-israel-boycott/#ixzz2APbfkSvl" target="_blank" rel="noopener">boycott of any company</a> that does business in Israel:
“My main recommendation is that the businesses highlighted in the report – as well as the many other businesses that are profiting from the Israeli settlement enterprise – should be boycotted until they bring their operations into line with international human rights and humanitarian law and standards.” 
Elsewhere, Dr. Falk has <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/2017/07/un-anti-israel-bias-richard-falk-pro-iran-9-11-truther-investigates-jewish-state/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">disputed that Al-Qaeda is solely responsible for the 9/11 terrorist attacks</a>. In an interview on the site, Truth Jihad, he endorsed the idea the <a href="https://freebeacon.com/politics/special-rapporteur-for-911-truth/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">highjackings might have been a false-flag operation</a>. He further authored a blog post, “<a href="https://richardfalk.org/2013/04/19/a-commentary-on-the-marathon-murders/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A Commentary on the Marathon Murders</a>,” that blamed the Boston Bombings on the foreign policy of DC and Tel Aviv. 

Due to his views, Dr. Falk was <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2008/dec/19/israel-palestinian-territories-united-nations" target="_blank" rel="noopener">banned from Israel in 2008</a>. Although officially retired from teaching, he still holds the position of professor emeritus at Princeton.

His personal biography webpage states,

“Since his arrival in NYC, Nunez has supported and worked for different social causes, groups, and organizations for the rights of undocumented, disabled, indigenous, and LGBT+ people. He has been the Manager of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility for Dance/NYC…[and was] a core member of the Artists of Color Council at Movement Research.”

“Nunez [is the] Founder of the Accessibility Advisory Team (AAT), a group of disabled artists who advise Movement Research on accessibility and inclusion practices through its various departments and platform.”

Nunez teaches a course called “<a href="https://arts.princeton.edu/courses/introduction-to-radical-access-disability-justice-in-the-arts/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Introduction to Radical Access: Disability Justice in the Arts.</a>”  The class introduction says, “Disability is front and center in a global social justice revolution…This course invites all artists, from choreographers to theater makers, filmmakers, visual artists, writers, and composers to immerse in a highly collaborative, improvisational, experimental and inclusive community to explore Disability Justice…”

<a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/princeton-agender-and-neurodivergent-performer-flaunts-disability-and-anti-technique/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The College Fix reports</a>, “The ‘Intro to Radical Access’ Princeton Dance program and Program for Community Engaged Scholarship hosted [a] ‘anti-technique’ performance.” However, Catholic students were moved to pray against evil spirits after attending the controversial dance performance that featured Nunez and two other "disabled" artists.

The performance showcased the artistic abilities of the disabled, mentally ill, and trans-identifying students. According to the College Fix, Nunez said, “‘This is the first time that we get to experience in a more pragmatic, practical way what access, accessibility, and access artistry means.’”

Atchison’s profile — which can only be found on the class description page — also shows her research “includes gender-based environmental violence, environmental racism/justice, ecofeminism, feminist/queer theology…Black church history…and African American women’s literary criticism.” 

Atchison contributes to a blog called <a href="https://www.antiracistdevotional.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Anti-Racist Devotional</a>. On <a href="https://www.antiracistdevotional.org/dr-gabriel-atchison" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Atchison’s About page</a> she describes herself as a “Black Feminist theologian” and the Congregational Development Director at Trinity Episcopal Church who researches “the role of the church in the racial identity development of Black Episcopalians.”

In her book titled “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B6GQR4FJ/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0?asin=B0B6GQR4FJ&amp;revisionId=ca68030b&amp;format=1&amp;depth=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Are You the Unchurched?: How to Develop an Authentic Relationship with God inside or outside the Church</a>,” Atchison remarked on survey results from a Christian research institute. She said,

“Overwhelmingly, young adults who were studied named hostility toward [LGBTQ+] people as the reason they do not attend church…Based on my understanding of the research, the unchurched are Christians who are:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">College-educated</li>

</ul>
In the opening paragraph of Atchison’s 2020 blog entry “<a href="https://gabrieljatchison.wordpress.com/2020/11/22/the-folly-of-hope/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Folly of Hope</a>,” she declared,


“Trump exposed all our fault lines due to systemic racism, class exploitation and greed. His initial election and very close re-election should act as a clarion call for us to enact sweeping and lasting social change…”

“Trump has no agenda, but his Puppet Masters do…This election exposed in a raw and unrelenting way, how many people in positions of power feel like people of color simply do not have the right to vote.”

Atchison goes on to identify herself as a “progressive [who finds] Joe Biden significantly inadequate for the task at hand.” She disagrees with any approach Biden may have to unite the nation and she believes the Democratic Party passed up “so many better qualified presidential candidates, with creative ideas…to elect a man whose platform is centrist and apolog[ist].”

<a href="https://history.princeton.edu/people/kevin-m-kruse" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kevin Kruse</a> is a Professor of History and the Director of the Center for Collaborative History at Princeton University. His faculty biography says Kruse “studies the political social, and urban/suburban history of 20th-century America.” He’s also “focused on conflicts over race, rights, and religion…[with] particular interests in segregation and the civil rights movement.”

Kruse has published several manuscripts including a 2005 book entitled “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/White-Flight-Atlanta-Conservatism-Politics/dp/0691133867?asin=0691133867&amp;revisionId=&amp;format=4&amp;depth=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">White Flight: Atlanta and the Making of Modern Conservatism.</a>” Kruse introduces the novel by stating,

“This book explores the causes and course of white flight, with Atlanta serving as its vantage point…While many have assumed that white flight was little more than a literal movement of the white population, this book argues that it represented a much more important transformation in the political ideology of those involved.”

He continued,

“Because of their confrontation with the civil rights movement, white southern conservatives were forced to abandon their traditional, populist, and often starkly racist demagoguery and instead craft a new conservatism predicated on a language of rights, freedom, and individualism.”

In June 2022, <a href="https://freebeacon.com/campus/double-standards-princeton-turns-blind-eye-to-plagiarism-from-woke-professor/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Washington Free Beacon</a> featured Kruse in an article titled “Double Standards: Princeton Turns Blind Eye to Plagiarism From Woke Professor.” According to the Beacon, “On December 6, the economic historian Phillip Magness emailed Princeton’s dean of faculty, Gene Jarrett, with evidence that [Kruse] plagiarized several passages of his 2015 book ‘One Nation Under God.’”

Magness cited passages of Kruse’s book as allegedly originating from a New York Times Article that was published in the mid-1960s. The Beacon said, “The university never replied to Magness’s email…and has not announced an investigation of Kruse.”

<a href="https://www.dailyprincetonian.com/article/2022/08/kevin-kruse-plagiarism-allegations-academic-princeton-investigation-phillip-magness-history" target="_blank" rel="noopener">According to the Daily Princetonian</a>, “Kruse expressed ‘surprise’ at the allegations and attributed the lack of citations in one instance to an inadvertent oversight.” Kruse also allegedly plagiarized a professor in his 2000 Cornell University doctoral thesis. The Princetonian quoted an email response from Kruse stating,

“‘While I indicated my intellectual debts to [author] Prof. Baylor else in the text, endnotes and bibliography of the dissertation, I was surprised to see that there was an instance in the introduction [where] I failed to do so properly.’”

<a href="https://www.plagiarismtoday.com/2022/06/27/kevin-kruse-and-the-peak-political-plagiarism-scandal/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Plagiarism Today said</a>, “Kruse is not your typical alleged plagiarist…Kruse has made a career for himself as an activist that corrects and criticizes right-wing talking points on history. He has over half a million followers on Twitter and a high-profile position at Princeton, both of which have given him clout.”

<a href="https://sociology.princeton.edu/people/frederick-wherry" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Frederick Wherry</a> is the Class of 1917 Professor of Sociology at Princeton University. In June 2022, he was named the inaugural vice dean for diversity and inclusion by the Office of the Dean of the Faculty.

In the same publication, Wherry said,

“‘Diversity and inclusion are critical to our core mission. When our faculty and academic professionals can participate fully in our shared endeavor, we are all able to see problems in new ways, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible, making way for innovation.’”

As the Director of the <a href="https://www.dignityanddebt.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Digntiy and Debt Network</a>, Wherry leads an organization of “experts” who research concepts of “dignity, respect, and fairness” in lending and debt collection. The organization studies debt along racial and socio-economic lines and states one of its goals is “to change the conversation about credit and debt among those measuring financial access and wellness…[b]y developing novel visualizations of dignity and debt…”

Wherry is in favor of canceling student loan debt. He believes borrowers are “victims” while lenders are “perpetrators.”

Wherry participated in a panel discussion called “<a href="https://youtu.be/DP7SK_-fXA8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Native Son: Black Gay Leadership Forum</a>” to discuss ideas on wealth creation, social justice, and trauma within communities. When asked about the aspiration of building assets and stronger economic futures among black and gay people, Wherry stated,

“One of the things we have to keep in mind when building assets is that they look different for our community in part because we have a positive effect on our social networks and building assets. People help us out, sometimes we get that ‘white glove treatment’ by virtue of folks who can tell us how to most effectively take advantage of an opportunity when it arises.”

He continued,

“At the same time, we have to be realistic…our social networks also can deplete some of those traditional forms of asset building…When we are providing financial assistance to our kinfolk — when you compare us to our white counterparts, who don’t have the same kinds of requests coming in at the same level of occupation, at the same level of academic achievement — we just have less available for traditional asset-building.”

<a href="https://nes.princeton.edu/people/satyel-larson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Satyel Larson</a> is an Assistant Professor of Near Eastern Studies at Princeton University. Larson’s areas of instruction are “Anthropology,” “Law and society,” “The Maghreb” and “Women, gender and sexuality.” Her faculty profile says:
“Her research and teaching lie at the intersections of law, science, technology and society; women, gender and sexuality; reproduction, health and medicine; Islam and secularism; colonialism, postcolonialism and globality; historical anthropology and epistemology; political economy; and language, discourse and narrative.”
Larson <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/princeton-anti-capitalist-class-teaching-black-people-considered-handicapped-systemic-racism" target="_blank" rel="noopener">made headlines</a> for reportedly teaching a course “that claims black people can be considered disabled due to the purported systemic racism they face.” Princeton’s Undergraduate Courses-Fall 2023 <a href="https://nes.princeton.edu/courses">schedule</a> lists Larson as the instructor for “The Healing Humanities: Decolonizing Trauma Studies from the Global South.” The course description says the course:
“Introduces the transdisciplinary field of trauma studies by examining visions of humanity…Reorienting healing as a decolonizing process enables students to re-politicize personal trauma as it intersects with global legacies of violence, war, racism, slavery, patriarchy, colonialism, orientalism, homophobia, ableism, capitalism and extractivism.”
<a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/princeton-anti-capitalist-class-teaching-black-people-considered-handicapped-systemic-racism" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fox News</a> highlighted Larson’s racialized course along with a textbook on the <a href="https://registrar.princeton.edu/course-offerings/course-details?courseid=016853&amp;term=1242" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sample Reading List.</a> According to the publisher, “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Right-Maim-Debility-Disability-Otherwise/dp/0822369184/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3CJIPSGV1XZ1X&amp;keywords=Jasbir+Puar%2C+The+Right+to+Maim%3A+Debility%2C+Capacity%2C+Disability&amp;qid=1693330890&amp;sprefix=%2Caps%2C142&amp;sr=8-1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Right to Maim: Debility, Capacity, Disability</a>” by Rutgers professor <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/jasbirpuar" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jasbir Puar</a> is “an interrogation of Israel’s policies toward Palestine, in which [Puar] outlines how Israel brings Palestinians into biopolitical being by designating them available for injury.”

According to the <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/news/israeli-minister-asks-princeton-to-remove-antisemitic-propaganda-from-course/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">National Review</a>, “The International Legal Forum, an Israel-based non-profit, criticized the decision to include [Puar’s] book in the course curriculum” and the “Israeli Minister and the International Legal Forum called for removing the book from the course.”

The Review also said, “Ronald Lauder, president of the World Jewish Congress, called for canceling the course and terminating [Larson].”

<a href="https://psych.princeton.edu/people/kristina-olson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kristina Olson</a> is a Professor in the Department of Psychology at Princeton University. Her faculty profile says:
“I study how children think about social groups, like those based on race and gender. Much of my most recent work has focused on sex and gender-diverse children with ongoing longitudinal projects exploring gender development and well-being in transgender, gender nonconforming and intersex children.”
In 2019, Olson<a href="https://www.pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pnas.1909367116" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> co-authored a study</a> entitled “Similarity in transgender and cisgender children’s gender development.” In the study “Abstract,” Olson, et al. conclude, “Our findings suggest that early sex assignment and parental rearing based on that sex assignment do not always define how a child identifies or expresses gender later.”

The study goes on to state that “young transgender children are different from their cisgender peers in their unique gender socialization experience, having lived part of their childhoods treated as members of one gender (before transitioning) and part of their childhoods treated as members of another gender (after transitioning).”

Olson <a href="https://publications.aap.org/pediatrics/article/150/2/e2021056082/186992/Gender-Identity-5-Years-After-Social-Transition?autologincheck=redirected">co-authored another study</a> on the effects of socially transitioning after five years. The study’s “methods” are based on data from the Trans Youth Project (TYP)—powered by Princeton University’s HUman[sic] Diversity Lab. The Lab reported data on 208 transgender girls and 109 transgender boys between ages 3 and 12 who had “made a ‘complete’ binary social transition.”

Notably, Olson is listed as the director of the HUman Diversity Lab <a href="https://hudl.princeton.edu/people" target="_blank" rel="noopener">on the “People” page</a>. 

In the study “Gender Identity 5 Years After Social Transition,” Olson, et al. wrote:
“As part of the larger longitudinal study, parents and youth were regularly asked about whether they had begun using puberty blockers and/or gender-affirming hormones…they were not asked about whether puberty had begun, though our available data suggests that…most participants were followed by an endocrinologist well before puberty began.”
In a discussion of the study’s findings, Olson, et al. concluded that “Five years after an initial binary social transition, 7% of youth had retransitioned at least once…Among those who had begun puberty blockers and/or gender-affirming hormones, only 1 had transitioned to live as cisgender…” 

However, Olson et al. admit in the study that they “did not assess whether participants met criteria for the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth edition, diagnosis of gender dysphoria in children” and further stated that “many parents did not believe such diagnoses were either ethical or useful…”

Olson told <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2022/05/04/health/transgender-children-identity.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The New York Times</a>:
“There’s this sort of idea that the kids are going to start [transitioning] and that they’re going to change their minds…And at least in our sample, we’re not finding that.”

<a href="https://aas.princeton.edu/people/eddie-s-glaude-jr" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Eddie Glaude Jr.</a> is a Professor in the Department of African American Studies at Princeton University. In April 2023, Glaude <a href="https://www.dailyprincetonian.com/article/2023/04/african-american-studies-department-princeton-university-glaude-eddie-stepping-down-chair" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced</a> that he would step down from his position as chair of the Department of African American Studies at Princeton.

Glaude is the author of several race-focused publications, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Democracy-Black-Still-Enslaves-American/dp/1522634940?asin=0804137439&amp;revisionId=&amp;format=4&amp;depth=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">including a book</a> entitled, “Democracy in Black: How Race Still Enslaves the American Soul.” In the introduction, Glaude wrote:
“This book details what I call the Great Black Depression, and shows how the current rhetoric of economic recovery does not include the majority of black communities in this country. It challenges the pervasive silence about the crisis in black communities and puts forward an idea of American democracy shorn of its racist baggage.”
<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Exodus-Religion-Nation-Nineteenth-Century-America/dp/0226298205/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1AHS2LRZ49TN3&amp;keywords=Exodus%21+Religion%2C+race+and+nation+in+Early+19th+century+black+america&amp;qid=1707509859&amp;s=books&amp;sprefix=exodus+religion%2C+race+and+nation+in+early+19th+century+black+america%2Cstripbooks%2C121&amp;sr=1-1&amp;asin=0226298205&amp;revisionId=&amp;format=4&amp;depth=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In his novel</a> titled “Exodus! Religion, Race, and Nation In Early 19th Century Black America,” Glaude compares the plight of African Americans to biblical accounts of Jews gaining freedom from slavery in Egypt. Glaude said his rendition explores “the ways the story became a source for a particular use of nation language among African Americans as well as a metaphorical framework for understanding the middle passage, enslavement, and quests for emancipation.”

The statement begins:
“We, Princeton University faculty and staff, affirm our solidarity with and support for the Columbia University and Barnard College students who are continuing to demand that the university divest from Israel’s genocide in Gaza and ongoing occupation of the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and other Palestinian land.” 
The signatories have committed to boycotting Columbia University and Barnard College until several demands are met, including:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“We call upon the Columbia University administration to reinstate those students who were wrongfully suspended for exercising their constitutionally recognized right to speech and peaceful assembly.”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“We demand that all charges be dismissed and expunged from their student records, and that all rights and privileges be restored to them immediately.”</li>

“The ongoing Israeli assault upon the Gaza Strip must be stopped … The international community must force Israel, Hamas, and all parties to the conflict to adhere strictly to the letter of international law, first and foremost by putting an immediate and complete halt to the unchecked collective punishment currently being deployed against Palestinians in Gaza.” 
The writers further claimed there is a “widespread dehumanization and erasure of Palestinian life in the United States” and that students who voice support for Palestinians are “continuously subjected to harassment, intimidation, imperiled job prospects, and threats to their personal safety.”

The letter concluded by acknowledging the university’s efforts to “reach out to Jewish community members as well as those with Israeli citizenship to check on their well-being.” They then state:
“We find it unacceptable, however, that Palestinian, Arab, and Muslim students were not and have not been accorded a similar show of respect and care. We call upon the University administration to do everything in its power to ensure that all Princetonians are recognized and feel safe and seen in this moment of accelerating grief, horror, and outright danger.”

The faculty and staff have also called for the university to reverse the suspension of two student groups, Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine and Columbia Jewish Voice for Peace. They concluded their statement with the following:
“We vow to withhold our academic labor from Columbia and Barnard, not to participate in conferences and other campus events, and not to collaborate with university institutions until such time as the administration has met these demands and demonstrated its commitments to upholding the well-established norms of unrestricted scholarly inquiry and academic freedom.” 
Ghamari-Tabrizi also signed an open letter published by <a href="https://www.dailyprincetonian.com/article/2023/10/princeton-opinion-openletter-solidarity-israel-palestine-peace-justice" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Daily Princetonian</a> on November 29, 2023, titled “An open letter from Princeton faculty and students in solidarity with Gaza.” The letter included the following quote:
“The ongoing Israeli assault upon the Gaza Strip must be stopped … The international community must force Israel, Hamas, and all parties to the conflict to adhere strictly to the letter of international law, first and foremost by putting an immediate and complete halt to the unchecked collective punishment currently being deployed against Palestinians in Gaza.” 
The writers further claimed there is a “widespread dehumanization and erasure of Palestinian life in the United States” and that students who voice support for Palestinians are “continuously subjected to harassment, intimidation, imperiled job prospects, and threats to their personal safety.”

The letter concluded by acknowledging the university’s efforts to “reach out to Jewish community members as well as those with Israeli citizenship to check on their well-being.” They then state:
“We find it unacceptable, however, that Palestinian, Arab, and Muslim students were not and have not been accorded a similar show of respect and care. We call upon the University administration to do everything in its power to ensure that all Princetonians are recognized and feel safe and seen in this moment of accelerating grief, horror, and outright danger.”

<a href="https://anthropology.princeton.edu/people/faculty/agustin-fuentes">Agustín Fuentes</a> is a Professor of Anthropology at Princeton University. According to his university profile, Fuentes’ “research focuses on the biosocial, delving into the entanglement of biological systems with the social and cultural lives of humans, our ancestors, and a few of the other animals with whom humanity shares close relations.” 

His profile further states the nature of his research:
“From chasing monkeys in jungles and cities, to exploring the lives of our evolutionary ancestors, to examining human health, behavior, and diversity across the globe, Professor Fuentes is interested in both the big questions and the small details of what makes humans and our close relations tick.”
In April 2024, Fuentes signed a “<a href="https://www.dailyprincetonian.com/article/2024/04/princeton-opinion-opguest-faculty-staff-solidarity-palestine-protestors-columbia-barnard-encampment" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Statement of solidarity with Columbia University students from Princeton faculty and staff</a>.” The statement came after student protestors established a “Gaza Solidarity Encampment” on the lawns of Columbia University, disrupting campus operations, sparking safety concerns, and causing classes to be <a href="https://www.tpusa.com/live/columbia-university-moves-classes-online-as-pro-palestine-protests-spark-safety-concerns" target="_blank" rel="noopener">held remotely</a> for the remainder of the semester. 

The statement begins: 
“We, Princeton University faculty and staff, affirm our solidarity with and support for the Columbia University and Barnard College students who are continuing to demand that the university divest from Israel’s genocide in Gaza and ongoing occupation of the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and other Palestinian land.” 
The signatories have committed to boycotting Columbia University and Barnard College until several demands are met, including: 
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“We call upon the Columbia University administration to reinstate those students who were wrongfully suspended for exercising their constitutionally recognized right to speech and peaceful assembly.”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“We demand that all charges be dismissed and expunged from their student records, and that all rights and privileges be restored to them immediately.”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“We call upon the Columbia University administration to remove the New York City Police Department from campus. All criminal charges that have been brought against student protestors who were arrested by the NYPD at the behest of the university administration should be dropped immediately.”</li>
</ul>
The faculty and staff have also called for the university to reverse the suspension of two student groups, Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine and Columbia Jewish Voice for Peace. They concluded their statement with the following: 
“We vow to withhold our academic labor from Columbia and Barnard, not to participate in conferences and other campus events, and not to collaborate with university institutions until such time as the administration has met these demands and demonstrated its commitments to upholding the well-established norms of unrestricted scholarly inquiry and academic freedom.” 
In May 2023, Fuentes penned an opinion piece for Scientific American titled “<a href="https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/heres-why-human-sex-is-not-binary/?amp;text=Here%27s" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Here’s Why Human Sex Is Not Binary</a>.” He began his article by stating: 
“There are those, politicians, pundits and even a few scientists, who maintain that whether our bodies make ova or sperm are all we need to know about sex. They assert that men and women are defined by their production of these gamete cells, making them a distinct biological binary pair, and that our legal rights and social possibilities should flow from this divide.” 
Fuentes argued that this is “bad science” and that people who believe legal and policy decisions should be made based on sex “are arguing for a specific political, and discriminatory, definition of what is ‘natural’ and ‘right’ for humans based on a false representation of biology.” He went on to claim: 
“Over the past few centuries this process of misrepresentation of biology was, and still is, used to deny women rights and to justify legal and societal misogyny and inequity, to justify slavery, racialization, racism and to enforce multiple forms of discrimination and bias.” 
“Today dishonest ascriptions of what biology is are being deployed to restrict women’s bodily autonomy, target LGBTQIA+ individuals broadly and, most recently, attack the rights of transexual and transgender people.” 
Fuentes concluded his opinion piece: 
“Given what we know about biology across animals and in humans, efforts to represent human sex as binary based solely on what gametes one produces are not about biology but are about trying to restrict who counts as a full human in society.”

Lurie spoke at the walkout in opposition to the disciplinary actions brought against student protesters:
“We demand that all Barnard College and Columbia University suspensions and charges be dismissed immediately and expunged from students’ records.”
Lurie told the <a href="https://www.columbiaspectator.com/news/2024/04/23/aaup-drafts-resolution-of-censure-against-shafik-administration-following-nypd-sweep/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Columbia Spectator</a> that the AAUP disapproved of Shafik’s response to the protesters and said:
“We want to be really clear that we are not calling for her resignation at this time. We want to work with her. We want her and her administration to turn back from the road that they’ve started down last week, and we’re really eager to partner with them in doing that.”
In a <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1wLVMV9z_HGanmpN-9b84Iket-d5VM9VT/view" target="_blank" rel="noopener">press release</a> issued by the AAUP, titled “Resolution of Censure,” the following criticism was stated of Shafik and her view of the pro-Palestine protests:
“President Shafik falsely claimed that the students who were arrested for protesting on April 18 posed a ‘clear and present danger to the substantial functioning of the University,’ when in fact they ‘were peaceful, offered no resistance whatsoever, and were saying what they wanted to say in a peaceful manner,’ according to the NYPD Chief of Patrol John Chell. Her actions have endangered these students’ welfare, and her draconian and disproportionate punishments have endangered their futures.”
Lurie and the AAUP <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bnEhCa6mR7t_82QUf_qpGT7acudoOMIw/view" target="_blank" rel="noopener">maintain</a> that Shafik’s termination is not what they desire in their latest press release:
“Unwarranted statements by members of Congress, including calls for President Shafik’s resignation, undermine the traditions of shared governance and academic freedom that have long ensured America’s educational greatness.”

<a href="https://biology.barnard.edu/profiles/hilary-callahan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hilary Callahan</a> is a Professor of Biological Sciences at Barnard College. According to her university profile, Callahan’s “research examines many different features of plants — from roots to flowers to seeds.”

Callahan participated in a Columbia University and Barnard College faculty protest titled “Rally to Support our Students and Reclaim our University” after student protesters took over the lawns of Columbia University. The <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/04/23/us-news/columbia-professors-slammed-over-grotesque-rally-that-publicly-backed-ivy-league-schools-anti-israel-protests/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Post</a> reported, “Scores of professors and staff appeared on the school’s steps to support the right of the ‘Gaza Solidarity Encampment’ to take over campus space and denounce the administration’s decision to have protesters arrested.” 

Callahan spoke at the walkout and compared the student protests to the Scopes Trial in 1924. During the Scopes Trial, an elementary school teacher was tried for teaching evolution at a school in Dayton, Tennessee. According to <a href="https://bwog.com/2024/04/student-workers-and-faculty-hold-walkouts-to-demand-amnesty-for-students-and-faculty/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BWOG</a>, “Callahan called the historical event an ‘emblem of how wrong it is to treat teachers as pawns and scapegoats,’” and connected it to the response of Columbia University to the protestation of its pro-Palestine faculty and students. 

Callahan then addressed the crowd with certain demands:
 “We insist on science and factual evidence… on delineating the boundaries between certainty and uncertainty…on honest, open, and difficult discourse,” discourse she claimed were “pathways to a more humane world.” 
Callahan described the university’s response to the protests and encampment as “intemperate and regrettable.” She said her and her associates would “work tirelessly to undo that error.”

According to her faculty profile, Eisterer’s “research focuses on spatial histories of dissidence, feminist, queer, and trans* theory in architecture, as well as the labor of social and ecological movements.”

For the current Princeton spring semester, Eisterer is teaching a <a href="https://registrar.princeton.edu/course-offerings/course-details?courseid=017728&amp;term=1254" target="_blank" rel="noopener">course</a> titled “Queer Spaces in the World.” 

The course description asks a series of questions about architecture, and proposes gender theory as a way of interpreting architectural spaces: 

“How do sources determine the histories we can tell about architecture, urban space, and the agents that enliven it? How do we reconcile seeming absences and actual acts of erasure that stare back at us from the archive? How can feminist, gender, queer and trans* theory help us chart new avenues for writing critical architectural histories that are attentive to discourses of difference but also narratives of equity?" 

The course further seeks to discover groups and institutions of resistance towards dominant regimes and philosophies: 

“Which methods, beyond conventional modes of architectural inquiry, can we employ to uncover histories of groups and institutions that have actively resisted dominant regimes of power and their corresponding systems of knowledge?”

Eisterer contributes to an Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/queerspaceworkinggroup/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">page</a> titled “queerspaceworkinggroup.” The page is described as a “transnational group of queer scholars &amp; architects 🏳️‍🌈 themed &amp; informal conversations about queer space(s).”

<a href="https://globalstudies.as.virginia.edu/people/profile/trf6k" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tessa Farmer</a> is an Associate Professor in the Global Studies Program and Anthropology Department at the University of Virginia.
After the terrorist group Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, 2023, Farmer offered extra credit to students who attended a discussion about how to “stand in solidarity with Palestinians resisting occupation.”
According to <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/college-professor-offers-extra-credit-rally-resisting-israeli-occupation-sparking-state-ag-probe" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fox News Digital</a>, Farmer sent a message to students on October 12 to promote an event hosted by Students for Justice in Palestine. The event was advertised as a “[teach-in] and demonstration about the current situation in Gaza, the events and history that led to this moment, and a discussion about how we can [stand] in solidarity with Palestinians resisting occupation.”
Farmer said students could receive extra credit by attending “an applicable event” that “relates to class conversations/themes” and writing a 250-word reflection about the event in relation to a course reading.
She sent a subsequent message to students which was shared with Fox News Digital by a University of Virginia spokesperson. Farmer said the goal “is for students to attend events around grounds that are applicable to the global studies course topics, recognizing that important issues will have a diversity of perspectives.”
“By posting the information provided by the organizers about the event that is happening today, I did not intend to imply that there is a link between endorsing the viewpoint of the organization and receiving extra credit for the course. In attending any event, I encourage you to critically engage with the content presented and to form your own opinion.” 
However, this is not the first time Farmer has <a href="https://canarymission.org/professor/Tessa_Farmer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">shown support</a> for Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP). In 2016, Fordham University blocked the formation of a Fordham SJP chapter “based on the reported behavior of other [SJP] chapters on other campuses.” Fordham decided, “the establishment of a local branch could be ‘polarizing’ and pose a safety concern to students and faculty.”
Farmer signed a letter authored by <a href="https://www.jewishvoiceforpeace.org/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jewish Voice for Peace</a>—the “largest progressive Jewish anti-Zionest organization in the world”—that condemned the university’s decision to block the establishment of an SJP chapter. The <a href="https://static1.squarespace.com/static/548748b1e4b083fc03ebf70e/t/58c1994ba5790ae223fbbf81/1489082707248/JVP+letter+to+Fordham+University.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">signatories wrote</a>,
“We demand that you immediately rescind the rejection of SJP as a student group on campus, apologize to the students affected by this harmful decision, and reaffirm Fordham’s commitment to free speech and academic freedom.” 
In April 2017, four students sued Fordham University and a New York court annulled the university’s decision and required Fordham to recognize SJP as a club in August 2019.
Farmer has also shown support for the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement. In 2014, she <a href="https://anthroboycott.wordpress.com/the-statement/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">signed a resolution</a> encouraging the American Anthropological Association (AAA) to boycott Israeli academic institutions. The resolution accused Israel of “ethnic cleansing, colonization, discrimination, and military occupation” and the signatories stated:
“We pledge not to collaborate on projects and events involving Israeli academic institutions, not to teach at or attend conferences and other events at such institutions, and not to publish in academic journals based in Israel.”

<a href="https://gened.as.virginia.edu/walsh">David Austin Walsh</a> is a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Arts and Sciences at the University of Virginia. His academic work centers on alleging active links between the far-right and conservatism over the past two centuries. Walsh <a href="https://gened.as.virginia.edu/egmt-1530-hateinnany-fascism-antifascism-and-global-far-right">teaches a course titled</a> Hateinnany: Fascism, Antifascism, and the Global Far Right.

In an attempt to tie far-right extremism to mainstream conservatism, Walsh has penned various articles attempting to connect mainstream conservatism with mass shootings. Writing for Arc Digital, he describes the <a href="https://www.elpasotimes.com/story/news/2019/08/05/el-paso-shooting-victim-list-names-identified-walmart-tx-texas/1918691001/">El Paso shooter’s</a> violent and bigoted ideology as <a href="https://arcdigital.media/the-el-paso-shooter-and-donald-trump-share-the-same-politics-so-why-doesnt-the-media-say-so-aff5062c26b1">identical to widely-held conservative stances</a>.

He then continued,

<a href="http://bostonreview.net/race-politics/david-walsh-fragile-patriotism-american-conservative">Expressing further disgust for conservatives</a>, he praised the 1619 Project—<a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/2019/10/new-york-times-1619-project-distorts-history-of-slavery/">a demagogic and racially-laden</a> polemic published by the New York Times—in an article for the Boston Review. He described conservative opposition to the largely erroneous articles as being rooted in racial bigotry.

David holds extreme contempt at even the idea of a conservative presidency. <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=16097">He has tweeted </a>calls to overthrow the President of the United States and to purge conservative voters in a hypothetical “de-Nazification,” similar to Germany post-WW2.

As a professor that has taken it upon himself to teach his students about politically right-of-center principles and individuals, it is concerning to see Walsh seamlessly intertwine conservatism with racial bigotry and extremism and then present it as mainstream amongst the right.

The UVA-affiliated hospital that employs Solorzano lists <a href="https://childrens.uvahealth.com/services/transgender-youth-health" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a range of procedures available to “trans, nonbinary, intersex, and asexual” children as young as 11 years old</a>. The “Transgender Youth Health Services” advertised include:

- Education about sex and contraception.

- Referrals for therapy to help manage anxiety, depression, and ongoing emotional issues.

- Puberty blockers that delay sex-related physical changes.

- Help in finding resources in the community.

- Referrals for gender-affirming surgeries and voice therapy.

The clinic requires an official diagnosis of gender dysphoria by a medical professional and consent from a parent or guardian to treat minors. However, the hospital’s definition of dysphoria is subjective; a diagnosis may only require that “a child’s sense of their gender differs from the sex assigned to them at birth.” Parents are not even required to attend initial appointments with their children.

In a lecture uncovered by The Daily Caller, <a href="https://dailycaller.com/2022/10/03/university-of-virginia-youth-gender-clinic-offers-puberty-blockers-chemical-castration-referrals-minors-undergo-breast-removal/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Solorzano discusses performing “irreversible” surgeries</a> as a part of a gender transition. While claiming that many are only offered to those over 18, she states that children as young as 16 years old may receive double mastectomies. A masectomy–or “top surgery”—removes an otherwise healthy teenager's breasts as part of the female-to-male transition.

&nbsp;

Further on, Dr. Solorzano discusses how she uses “cross-sex” hormones to block puberty in teens who transition. Acknowledging that while these drugs are not recommended for minors, she states that making a teen suffering from dysphoria undergo property is “cruel.” Dr. Solorzano believes that many teens are mature enough to make these “irreversible” decisions.

&nbsp;

Conceding that children must first begin puberty before treatment, Dr. Solorzano recalls consulting a 9-year-old girl on receiving hormones. She then claims that puberty blockers are temporary and puberty can be resumed at any time by stopping treatment.

&nbsp;

A common drug used to block puberty is called Lupron, which was <a href="https://www.city-journal.org/hormone-treatments-gender-dysphoric-children" target="_blank" rel="noopener">designed to castrate sex offenders and is not approved by the FDA</a>. Even if the dosage is <a href="https://www.commonsense.news/p/top-trans-doctors-blow-the-whistle?s=r" target="_blank" rel="noopener">halted mid-transition, children are still unable to undergo puberty.</a>

While available via Youtube for over eight years, the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bzkf6OqNE2Y" target="_blank" rel="noopener">university appears to have deleted Dr, Solorzano’s lecture following coverage by The Daily Caller as of publication.</a>

Brennhofer’s personal Twitter account characterizes her as the “<a href="https://twitter.com/sbrennhofer?lang=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">anti-diet dietitian</a>.” 
<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2910" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Screenshot-2023-03-27-at-2.14.15-PM.png" alt="" width="592" height="296" />
In exclusive audio obtained by Campus Reform, Stephanie Brennhofer <a href="https://twitter.com/sbrennhofer?lang=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">urges students to stop using the word “fat”</a> as it is “inherently fatphobic” and “reinforces that thin is good.” 

Her comments were delivered during a guest lecture—titled, “Diet Culture &amp; Weight Stigma”—in an “Exercise and Nutrition Medicine” course:
“The word ‘fat’ is inherently fatphobic because it signals to fat people, and really everybody uses that, right? So if you don’t want to use it, and use it, it’s bad, and it reinforces that thin is good and that’s not what we want to do.    
Brennhofer claims the term “fat” only indicates somebody’s body shape and “it’s not a negative descriptor:” 
“All fat does is describe somebody’s body shape and it’s not a negative descriptor. And so the body positivity community has really tried to like reclaim [fat] as their own. And its generally preferred over the medical terms of ‘overweight’ and ‘obese’ because those carry medical connotations.” 
Continuing, she urges the class to stop labeling foods “good or bad” and “guilting people” who eat them. Brennhofer claims that a person’s weight is based on their genetics and there is nothing dietitians can do to get their patients to lose weight;   
“So, you know, [there’s] a lot of myths. You know, this whole idea that weight is mainly biological, right? Is, like, that’s going to change our weight. Our body is just kind of at this point based on genetic factors. I mean, other things do play a role, but it’s mainly genetics.” 
Brennhofer tells students that it's “unethical” to tell patients how to lose weight because they have very little control over their size. She even claims there are negative health effects for patients that do lose weight:
“And the data that we have show [sic] that when people gain and lose mass amounts of weight, that actually increases the risk of other very serious health outcomes like cancer and cardiovascular disease.”

Liz Cheney is a <a href="https://news.virginia.edu/content/liz-cheney-serve-professor-practice-uva-center-politics" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Professor of Practice</a> at the University of Virginia. She is also the daughter of former Vice-President Dick Cheney (2001-2008). 

Cheney’s most controversial moments have come as one of the members of the January 6th Select Committee. Formed to <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2021/06/30/politics/republicans-january-6-select-committee-vote/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">investigate the Capitol protests of January 2021</a>, Cheney and the committee sought to portray the mostly peaceful protests <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2022/06/09/liz-cheney-jan-6-committee-full-statement-00038730" target="_blank" rel="noopener">as a directed attack on the Capitol and even democracy itself</a>. 

As Vice-Chair, Cheney had exclusive access to over forty-thousand hours of footage and still photos from the riots and wielded immense subpoena power. 

When former White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon defied the committee's subpoena, <a href="https://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Politics/2021/1015/Bannon-defies-Jan.-6-subpoena-cites-Trump-executive-privilege" target="_blank" rel="noopener">citing executive privilege</a>, Cheney voted to <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20211026010223/https://www.cnn.com/2021/10/21/politics/house-republicans-vote-yes-steve-bannon-contempt-of-congress/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hold him in contempt of Congress</a>. While appeals are still ongoing, <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/steve-bannons-prison-sentence-delayed-appeal/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bannon could face four months in jail</a>. 

When Peter Navarro—Director of Trade and Manufacturing Policy under President Trump—defied the committee's subpoenas, Cheney <a href="https://www.axios.com/2022/04/06/house-votes-scavino-navarro-contempt" target="_blank" rel="noopener">voted to hold him in Contempt of Congress</a> and referred Navarro to the Department of Justice for prosecution. Navarro was allegedly <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/06/03/report-peter-navarro-handcuffed-at-airport-and-frogmarched-to-the-courthouse/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">dragged off a plane by FBI agents</a> at the time of his arrest and “frog marched” into a jail cell where he <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/courts/with-no-legal-representation-navarro-pleads-for-extension-in-contempt-of-congress-case" target="_blank" rel="noopener">spent 24 hours without legal counsel or communications</a>. 

After 41,000 hours of <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/media/3866648-mccarthy-gives-fox-news-tucker-carlson-access-to-jan-6-capitol-surveillance-footage/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Capitol footage was released to Tucker Carlson</a>, Cheney and the other committee members were scrutinized for selectively editing and withholding key evidence. Upon review, Tucker Carlson’s team determined that <a href="https://hotair.com/ed-morrissey/2023/03/08/too-bad-to-check-did-the-j6-committee-add-sound-effects-to-surveillance-videos-n535600" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sound effects were added to the footage</a> to make the protest seem more chaotic and violent. 

In one brief clip released by Cheney and the January 6th Committee, Senator Josh Hawley appears to be <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9kUmwRDjyI&amp;ab_channel=NBCNews" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fleeing the protests that Committee members accused him of instigating</a>. The full footage <a href="https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2023/03/06/tucker_carlson_january_6th_committee_lied_about_josh_hawley_running_away.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">withheld by the Committee</a> reveals dozens of congressmen were evacuated by the capitol police, and Hawley was jogging behind. 

While prominent officials claimed that Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick was murdered by protestors, released footage shows Sicknick—whose death was later determined to be caused by stroke—<a href="https://nypost.com/2023/03/06/footage-shows-capitol-cop-brian-sicknick-uninjured-on-jan-6/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">unharmed and directing protestors in the Capitol</a>. Electric bookmarks indicate Vice-Chair Cheney’s and the Committee reviewed the footage but <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/tucker-carlson-releases-exclusive-jan-6-footage-says-politicians-media-lied-about-sicknick-qanon-shaman" target="_blank" rel="noopener">chose not to release it. </a>

 As Vice-President of the Committee, Cheney had access to the exculpatory footage of Jacob Chansley—nicknamed the “Q-Shaman”— but refused to release it. Chansley was <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2021/11/17/qanon-shaman-jacob-chansley-sentence-522807" target="_blank" rel="noopener">arrested and pled guilty to obstructing an official proceeding</a>. He is currently serving up to 41 months in prison. The footage shows Chansley being <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/tucker-carlson-releases-exclusive-jan-6-footage-says-politicians-media-lied-about-sicknick-qanon-shaman" target="_blank" rel="noopener">led around the capitol by police, who even opened doors for him</a>. Chansley’s lawyer claims the footage was <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/former-lawyer-qanon-shaman-says-jan-6-footage-wasnt-shown-client-calls-prison-sentence-tragedy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">withheld from the defense</a>. He had not even seen the footage until it was released after the trial concluded. 

Despite Cheney’s relentless pursuit of defendants, critics have noted her reluctance to subpoena Ray Epps, who is infamous for telling <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S66NWcSccwE&amp;ab_channel=ForbesBreakingNews" target="_blank" rel="noopener">protestors to “go into Capitol”</a>, and was present among the rioters who first breached the barricades.  

Despite his actions, Cheney has vocally defended Epps. When pressed by a student at the University of Chicago why the “insurrectionist” Epps hadn’t been arrested, the Vice-Chair <a href="https://justthenews.com/government/congress/liz-cheney-asked-about-prosecuting-ray-epps-jan-6-role-says-doj-makes-decision" target="_blank" rel="noopener">denounced the inquiry as a “conspiracy theory.”</a> 

Epps has long been <a href="https://www.revolver.news/2021/10/meet-ray-epps-the-fed-protected-provocateur-who-appears-to-have-led-the-very-first-1-6-attack-on-the-u-s-capitol/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">suspected of being a federal informant</a>, in part for remaining free despite being filmed agitating protestors to commit violence at the Capitol. <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/breaking-tucker-carlson-reveals-ray-epps-lied-in-sworn-testimony-to-jan-6-committee" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Epps lied under oath about his whereabouts on January 6th</a>, but Cheney and the Committee made no attempts to refer Epps for prosecution. 

Cheney’s initial foray into politics came in 2013 when she primaried Wyoming Senator Mike Enzi. She spent most of her childhood and adult life outside of the state and <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20220519222115/https://www.nytimes.com/2013/07/17/us/politics/liz-cheney-to-challenge-senator-michael-enzi-of-wyoming.html">only moved to Jackson Hole in 2012</a>. Media outlets deemed Cheney a “<a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/onpolitics/2013/07/22/cheney-senate-wyoming-enzi-carpetbagger/2575197/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">carpetbagger</a>” after her campaign announcement <a href="https://theintercept.com/2021/05/12/liz-cheney-republican-house-trump/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">geotagged her location in Virginia</a>, her primary residence at the time.    

Although eventually withdrawing, Cheney <a href="https://rollcall.com/2016/11/08/liz-cheney-wins-wyoming-house-seat/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">successfully ran for Wyoming’s Lone House Seat in 2016</a>, where she served from 2016-2022 before <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2022/08/16/wyoming-alaska-primary-results-2022-00052216" target="_blank" rel="noopener">losing the primary by nearly 40 points</a> to challenger Harriet Hageman. 

While in Congress, Cheney took no public salary. Despite this, her personal wealth<a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/08/11/records-liz-cheneys-net-worth-ballooned-much-600-percent-during-her-time-office/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> ballooned by over 600%</a>. Entering office with roughly $7 million dollars in assets, Cheney left six years later with an estimated net worth of $44 million. 

Much of Cheney’s <a href="https://www.opensecrets.org/personal-finances/liz-cheney/net-worth?cid=N00035504" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wealth is tied to her stake in the law firm Latham &amp; Watkins</a>. Her husband, <a href="https://www.lw.com/people/PhilipJPerry" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Philip J. Perry</a>, has served as a partner since she first took office. The firm advised and lobbied on behalf of technology companies with direct connections to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). 

The State Department declared one company, Tencent, a “tool of the Chinese government” <a href="https://qz.com/1708662/chinese-tech-giants-tools-of-the-communist-party-us-official" target="_blank" rel="noopener">over surveillance and security concerns</a>.  Latham &amp; Watkins further <a href="https://www.opensecrets.org/federal-lobbying/firms/summary?cycle=2004&amp;id=D000000536&amp;t0-search=exe" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lobbied on behalf of Exelon</a>, a corporation that <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052970204358004577031241071779010" target="_blank" rel="noopener">aids the Chinese government’s nuclear program. </a>

While her <a href="https://www.lw.com/en/news/2020/11/latham-advises-tencent-music-on-investment-in-wave" target="_blank" rel="noopener">husband’s firm advised CCP companies</a>, Cheney <a href="https://www.congress.gov/member/liz-cheney/C001109?q=%7B%22subject%22%3A%22Armed+Forces+and+National+Security%22%7D" target="_blank" rel="noopener">handled classified information</a> regarding national security while serving on the Armed Services Committee. 

Upon Cheney’s acceptance of her position as Professor of Practice at the University, Virginia President Jim Ryan <a href="https://news.virginia.edu/content/liz-cheney-serve-professor-practice-uva-center-politics" target="_blank" rel="noopener">stated that he was “delighted</a> [that] students will have an incredible opportunity to learn from Liz Cheney, who has fiercely defended democracy as part of a distinguished career.” Director of the Center for Politics, Larry Sabato, called Cheney a “model of political courage and leadership.” Cheney’s position will run through the end of the Fall 2023 semester, with an option to renew upon the conclusion of the academic year.

<a href="https://globalstudies.as.virginia.edu/people/profile/trf6k" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tessa Farmer</a> is an Associate Professor in the Global Studies Program and Anthropology Department at the University of Virginia.

After the terrorist group Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, 2023, Farmer offered extra credit to students who attended a discussion about how to “stand in solidarity with Palestinians resisting occupation.”

According to <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/college-professor-offers-extra-credit-rally-resisting-israeli-occupation-sparking-state-ag-probe" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fox News Digital</a>, Farmer sent a message to students on October 12 to promote an event hosted by Students for Justice in Palestine. The event was advertised as a “[teach-in] and demonstration about the current situation in Gaza, the events and history that led to this moment, and a discussion about how we can [stand] in solidarity with Palestinians resisting occupation.”

Farmer said students could receive extra credit by attending “an applicable event” that “relates to class conversations/themes” and writing a 250-word reflection about the event in relation to a course reading.

She sent a subsequent message to students which was shared with Fox News Digital by a University of Virginia spokesperson. Farmer said the goal “is for students to attend events around grounds that are applicable to the global studies course topics, recognizing that important issues will have a diversity of perspectives.”
“By posting the information provided by the organizers about the event that is happening today, I did not intend to imply that there is a link between endorsing the viewpoint of the organization and receiving extra credit for the course. In attending any event, I encourage you to critically engage with the content presented and to form your own opinion.” 
However, this is not the first time Farmer has <a href="https://canarymission.org/professor/Tessa_Farmer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">shown support</a> for Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP). In 2016, Fordham University blocked the formation of a Fordham SJP chapter “based on the reported behavior of other [SJP] chapters on other campuses.” Fordham decided, “the establishment of a local branch could be ‘polarizing’ and pose a safety concern to students and faculty.”

Farmer signed a letter authored by <a href="https://www.jewishvoiceforpeace.org/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jewish Voice for Peace</a>—the “largest progressive Jewish anti-Zionest organization in the world”—that condemned the university’s decision to block the establishment of an SJP chapter. The <a href="https://static1.squarespace.com/static/548748b1e4b083fc03ebf70e/t/58c1994ba5790ae223fbbf81/1489082707248/JVP+letter+to+Fordham+University.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">signatories wrote</a>,
“We demand that you immediately rescind the rejection of SJP as a student group on campus, apologize to the students affected by this harmful decision, and reaffirm Fordham’s commitment to free speech and academic freedom.” 
In April 2017, four students sued Fordham University and a New York court annulled the university’s decision and required Fordham to recognize SJP as a club in August 2019.

Farmer has also shown support for the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement. In 2014, she <a href="https://anthroboycott.wordpress.com/the-statement/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">signed a resolution</a> encouraging the American Anthropological Association (AAA) to boycott Israeli academic institutions. The resolution accused Israel of “ethnic cleansing, colonization, discrimination, and military occupation” and the signatories stated:
“We pledge not to collaborate on projects and events involving Israeli academic institutions, not to teach at or attend conferences and other events at such institutions, and not to publish in academic journals based in Israel.”

Quoting Carson, The Fix said: 
“‘Given today’s bitter partisan divide and extremist culture wars, it comes as no surprise that Shapiro’s track quickly found a devoted following. But his racist, anti-rap rap lyrics ultimately repeat the same tired charges right-wing politicians have used against hip-hop since its birth over 50 years ago.’”
Carson was also quoted as saying, “‘I would love to believe that racist, sexist, white male grievance rap isn’t where the zeitgeist is in America. But Ben Shapiro and his conservative followers are betting that it is — at least for a brief moment.’”

<a href="https://gephardtinstitute.wustl.edu/people/sarah-garwood/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Sarah Garwood</a> is an Associate Professor of Pediatrics at the Washington University in St. Louis School of Medicine. According to her university profile, Dr. Garwood “provides care for complex adolescent patients.” She also designed and serves as co-director of the Washington University Transgender Center at St. Louis Children’s Hospital.

The whistleblower, who previously worked at the center for four years, <a href="https://www.thefp.com/p/i-thought-i-was-saving-trans-kids" target="_blank" rel="noopener">detailed the center’s aggressive and early intervention</a> and its “lack of regard for the rights of parents.”

“I would actually decline any requirements for disclosure by students or from school to parents.” 
Similarly, when asked for advice on how to handle fifth graders who are suffering from gender dysphoria, Dr. Garwood responded:
“The best we can do is affirm, validate and allow for the exploration, if in a few weeks or months, a student wants to go by their legal name and pronouns that match their sex assigned at birth, no harm was really done in affirming them before.”

<a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/washington-u-lecturer-warns-medical-students-not-debate-systemic-oppression-shut-down" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fox News</a> reports that Reedy-Rogier was caught on camera warning students that if they try to debate her on critical race theory and “systemic oppression,” she “will shut that s— down real fast.” During a lecture, she said: 
“I have a really hard time being neutral around issues of systemic oppression. So oftentimes you will know how I feel. This does not mean that I am opposed to hearing other perspectives, I would like to be very clear about that: I am always willing to engage in dialogue with folks that may disagree with me. Always.” 
She continues: 
“And I will not think less of you, nor will I try to fight you or debate you. And in fact, if you try to fight me or debate me, I will shut that s— down real fast.” 
Reedy-Rogier also has argued the field of medicine “<a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11551901/Washington-Uni-St-Louis-lecturer-says-race-implications-practice-medicine.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">has a really bad racism issue</a>,” stating: 
“We are very firm in race being a social construct, and that that has implications for how we practice medicine. That has implications for how we understand research, and that has implications for how we understand health disparity. And so when we are asking you all to engage in this, we’re really asking you to think about your own identities, and what that means to be anti-racist, which is an active stance in medicine that we know has a really bad racism issue.” 
Reedy-Rogier’s lecture is part of the <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/lecturer-cautions-students-not-to-challenge-her-on-systemic-oppression/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">medical school’s “Health Equity &amp; Justice” lessons</a> within the “Gateway Curriculum” that was rolled out in 2020. In the wake of the riots and protests surrounding the death of George Floyd, the medical school vowed to “require diversity and bias training for all searches and admissions processes including student, resident, fellow, faculty, and staff positions in education.”

<a href="https://artsci.wustl.edu/faculty-staff/bret-gustafson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bret Gustafson</a> is a Professor of Sociocultural Anthropology at Washington University in St. Louis. Gustafson describes himself as a “political anthropologist with an interest in climate politics, fossil fuels, and the energy transition.”

In November 2023, Gustafson came under fire for <a href="https://www.kmov.com/2023/11/28/washington-university-professor-under-fire-anti-israel-bias-after-social-media-post/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">antisemitic social media comments</a>. After protesters in Los Angeles threw smoke devices and vandalized the home of the president of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), Gustafson <a href="https://twitter.com/libsoftiktok/status/1729509403676598707" target="_blank" rel="noopener">allegedly posted</a> the following:

<img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-3343" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Screen-Shot-2023-11-28-at-12.56.16-PM-1024x1015.png" alt="" width="640" height="634" />
The <a href="https://twitter.com/bretgustafson?lang=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">user’s account</a> has since been made private, but his Twitter biography includes a link to his faculty page at Washington University in St. Louis. The university provided the following statement to First Alert 4:
“Bret Gustafson is currently employed by Washington University. The opinions he has expressed as an individual do not represent the university’s position. We do not condone intimidation and we will not tolerate discrimination, harassment or threatening behavior.” 
In 2021, after a student destroyed a flag display that was part of a 9/11: Never Forget Project, Gustafson <a href="https://yaf.org/news/nearly-50-washu-professors-sign-statement-defending-9-11-vandal-american-flag-is-symbol-of-american-imperialism/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">signed a statement</a> in support of the vandal, calling the crime a “protest.” <a href="https://www.studlife.com/forum/2021/09/14/community-statement-against-islamophobia" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The letter</a> further said the American flag is “the symbol of American imperialism and violence in the Middle East, North Africa, Central Asia and beyond.”

Gustafson is also a proponent of fossil fuel divestment. In March 2023, he participated in a <a href="https://www.studlife.com/uncategorized/2023/03/01/green-action-rally-demands-university-divestment-from-fossil-fuels" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Green Action rally</a> that called on the university to divest from fossil fuels and “recognize the impacts of environmental racism.” He said the university “directly contributes to violence against all of us” because “everybody breathes the toxic impacts of burning coal to produce electricity.” He stated:
“It’s really quite embarrassing to be a faculty member at WashU. It should be [embarrassing] for students and alumni to be associated with a University that’s really far behind a lot of things.” 
He added:
“When Chancellor Martin says they can’t do anything because they’re just trying to protect the money for the University, there are plenty of other places you can invest your money in this daily sick capitalist system that we live in.”

<a href="https://jimes.wustl.edu/people/david-h-warren" target="_blank" rel="noopener">David H. Warren</a> is a Lecturer of Middle East Studies and Arabic at Washington University in St. Louis. Aside from <a href="https://www.routledge.com/Rivals-in-the-Gulf-Yusuf-al-Qaradawi-Abdullah-Bin-Bayyah-and-the-Qatar-UAE/Warren/p/book/9780367280628" target="_blank" rel="noopener">publishing a book</a> in 2021 and his 2022 <a href="https://www.uscirf.gov/sites/default/files/2022-12/2022%20Religious%20Freedom%20Tolerance%20Report.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">paper</a> that “examine[d] the intersection of religious tolerance promotion and authoritarianism in the Gulf,” Warren has no other notable scholarly contributions.

In the paper, he uses the term “religious tolerance promotion” or RTP to indicate how friendly authoritarian regimes are toward those who openly practice their beliefs in society. Understandably, Warren did not include Palestine or Gaza in the piece. This could be due to the Gazan government <a href="https://besacenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/1449-A-Short-History-of-Palestinian-Rejectionism-Cohen-final.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">rejecting statehood multiple times</a> and the fact that its terrorist branch, Hamas, does not tolerate any religion outside of its <a href="https://avalon.law.yale.edu/20th_century/hamas.asp" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Islamic Resistance Movement</a>.  

<a href="https://x.com/davidhwarren/with_replies?lang=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Warren’s Twitter account</a> confirms his antisemitic views. On August 29, 2024, he posted about pro-Palestinian protests that occurred on Washington University’s campus. 

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3840" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Screenshot-2024-10-03-at-5.54.48 PM.png" alt="" width="544" height="428" />

The tweet links to a <a href="https://www.studlife.com/forum/2024/08/28/opinion-submission-a-letter-from-suspended-faculty-against-genocide" target="_blank" rel="noopener">university newspaper</a> article titled “Opinion Submission: A letter from suspended faculty against genocide.” Since Warren is only a non-tenured lecturer, his signature does not appear on the letter. The Professor Watchlist couldn’t confirm if Warren was off work in April when his superior colleagues <a href="https://www.studlife.com/news/2024/04/30/the-aftermath-of-april-27-protesters-denounce-police-response-administration-condemns-encampment-and-students-and-faculty-suspended" target="_blank" rel="noopener">joined one</a> (of many) anti-Jewish protests that resulted in the arrest of four faculty members. 

The statement says, in part:
“As faculty members who were suspended and banned from campus this spring for standing with students against the genocide of Gaza, we know that our school remains gripped by a moral crisis stemming from its complicity in the occupation of Palestine. In April [2024], we experienced firsthand how the University prioritizes its ties to weapons contractors like Boeing over its commitment to the safety and well-being of its community members.” 
The following antisemitic and anti-American posts are also sourced from Warren’s social media:

<a href="http://faculty.ithaca.edu/eisenste/">Dr. Zillah Eisenstein</a> is the Emerita Professor of Political Science at Ithaca College, New York. Eisenstein gave a lecture at Cornell University entitled, “Thinking about Hetero-Racist Misogyny in Agriculture.” In this lecture, she contended that agriculture was a, “capitalist, radicalized patriarchy” and called the United States a “fascist democracy.”

Sean Eversley Bradwell is an <a href="https://www.ithaca.edu/faculty/seversley" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Associate Professor in the Department of Education at Ithaca College</a>. His research and teaching interests include educational policy, pedagogy, and social change. His university profile also says he was the director of the Center for Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Social Change (IDEAS). 

In response to an <a href="https://theithacan.org/news/campus-community-discusses-racist-video-posted-by-student/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">alleged racist video</a> posted by an Ithaca student in 2019, <a href="https://theithacan.org/news/panel-discusses-origins-and-ownership-of-the-n-word/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Ithacan published a story</a> on Bradwell discussing the origins, ownership, and usage of the “N-word.” 

“Bradwell’s lecture detailed the history of the N-word from possible etymologies to the transition from “n—er” to “n—a” as a result of its colloquial use among black comedians and hip-hop artists,” The Ithacan said.

The Ithacan further stated, “Bradwell explained that the first recorded usage of the N-word was in 1786, but etymologists can trace the usage of the word back to the 1570s. There are several competing etymologies to explain the creation of the N-word, but Bradwell said regardless of the origin, the word has always had a negative connotation.”  

The video incident also led Bradwell to clarify, in his view, the appropriate uses of the N-word. In a column titled “<a href="https://theithacan.org/columns/who-gets-to-say-the-n-word/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Who gets to say the N-word</a>,” the author — who attended Bradwell’s panel discussion — concluded, 

“The term n—a came about in the late 1970s from black comedians and was further popularized by rap and hip-hop artists like Tupac Shakur, who argued that the word n—a can function as a term of affection…When black people use n—a, it normalizes the word to the point where nonblack folks feel perfectly comfortable saying it.”

The student, who was reportedly a “person of color,” did not incur discipline for using the slur to refer to herself in the video.

In January 2021, Bradwell signed the “<a href="https://theithacan.org/opinion/letter-from-bipoc-faculty-to-faculty-council-nov-19-2020/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Letter from BIPOC faculty to Faculty Council, Nov. 19, 2020.</a>” BIPOC is an acronym for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color. In response to issues with the college’s Senior Leadership Team, the letter states,

“We write as a group of BIPOC faculty at Ithaca College who have no communal affiliation other than our shared experiences at this predominantly white institution. We do not claim to speak for all BIPOC faculty.”

“As BIPOC faculty, we are called to speak in response to long-standing inequities at Ithaca College. Only in recent years has the college made progress in hiring BIPOC faculty. As a result, in this time of uncertainty, the majority of BIPOC faculty are untenured.”

“If you wish to retain us, talk to us, not about us; listen to us and think about the ways you contribute to an environment where racialized bodies are constantly under attack…We offer this statement because we are part of this community and want to foster a space where everyone feels welcome to engage in dialogue.”

In 2015, Gonzalez <a href="https://youtu.be/OV-wKIK68Ac" target="_blank" rel="noopener">participated in a staged walkout</a> to support 1,000 Ithaca students who demanded the resignation of campus President Tom Rochon. The protest was organized in response to Rochon’s handling of race-related incidents on campus. <a href="https://theithacan.org/news/over-1000-ithaca-college-students-walk-out-to-protest-racism/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Ithacan reported,</a> “The Student Government Association [held] a vote of no confidence against Rochon, while Faculty Council passed a motion to hold a faculty vote of no confidence.”

Gonzalez said, “‘I hope that more awareness and more momentum will come out of this event. POC at IC talked about their goals. I see faculty and staff everywhere and this is an issue that is not going away. I hope the administration sees that and does something about it.”’

In January 2021, Gonzalez signed the “<a href="https://theithacan.org/opinion/letter-from-bipoc-faculty-to-faculty-council-nov-19-2020/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Letter from BIPOC faculty to Faculty Council, Nov. 19, 2020.</a>” BIPOC is an acronym for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color. In response to issues with the college’s Senior Leadership Team, the letter states,

“We write as a group of BIPOC faculty at Ithaca College who have no communal affiliation other than our shared experiences at this predominantly white institution. We do not claim to speak for all BIPOC faculty.”

“As BIPOC faculty, we are called to speak in response to long-standing inequities at Ithaca College. Only in recent years has the college made progress in hiring BIPOC faculty. As a result, in this time of uncertainty, the majority of BIPOC faculty are untenured.”

“If you wish to retain us, talk to us, not about us; listen to us and think about the ways you contribute to an environment where racialized bodies are constantly under attack…We offer this statement because we are part of this community and want to foster a space where everyone feels welcome to engage in dialogue.”

Gonzalez was featured in an article by School Transportation News titled “<a href="https://stnonline.com/special-reports/equity-diversity-and-inclusion-a-plan-for-improved-staff-recruitment-retention/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Equity, Diversity and Inclusion: A Plan for improved Staff Recruitment, Retention</a>.” She provided “expertise” on how to improve employment relations. School Transportation News quoted Gonzalez saying,

“‘Often, people are made to feel like they don’t belong, particularly those who are underrepresented in a particular occupation. That feeling of exclusion affects work performance, not because of an individual deficiency but because people must expend energy anticipating and navigating an inhospitable workplace.’”

<a href="https://www.ithaca.edu/faculty/chenderson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cynthia Henderson</a> is a Professor of Acting in the School of Music, Theater, and Dance, and Chair of the Department of Theater and Dance Performance at Ithaca College. She’s also the founder of <a href="http://www.pa4sc.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Performing Arts for Social Change</a> — a theater, music, and dance program with a mission to “raise awareness and educate by giving a voice to important societal issues that are often overlooked.”

On one project — “<a href="http://www.pa4sc.com/projects.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">An Exploration of Race, Privilege and the Learning Environment</a>” — Henderson’s performing arts program fostered discussions at Ithaca High School after a 2018 student “<a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0427327/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hairspray</a>” finale. The project description says, 

“[A] very diverse group of people…came together in the chorus room…Through the genre of theatre, this group acted out, wrote, spoke, listened, and explored difficult truths about broken trust, racial bias, privilege, profiling, micro-aggressions and institutional racism.”

Spectrum News 1 featured Henderson in an article titled “<a href="https://spectrumlocalnews.com/nys/central-ny/human-interest/2020/05/23/ithaca-college-promotes-first-ever-full-time-black-professor#" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ithaca College Promoting African American Professor Becomes Historic.</a>”  The subtitle of the article says, “First African American Promoted to Full Professor,” and the reporter claimed the college “has been educating students for almost 130 years, but it’s taken until 2020 for an African American person to become a full professor there.”

Henderson recalled a moment within her 20-year career at Ithaca, stating,

“[In the] 2020-2021 academic year, I received a phone call [from] a male voice saying, ‘We don’t need N-word, B-word, people like you teaching at our college.’ There weren’t very many African Americans. I think you can count them on one hand. Through the years, I’ve dealt with a lot of bias.”

Ithaca’s <a href="https://www.ithaca.edu/policy-manual/volume-iv-faculty-handbook/409-definitions-and-types-appointments" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Definitions and Types of Appointments</a>, as well as its page for <a href="https://www.ithaca.edu/policy-manual/volume-iv-faculty-handbook/401-ranked-academic-faculty" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ranked Academic Faculty</a>, do not show an approved designation for the appointment of a “full professor.”

In January 2021, Henderson signed the “<a href="https://theithacan.org/opinion/letter-from-bipoc-faculty-to-faculty-council-nov-19-2020/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Letter from BIPOC faculty to Faculty Council, Nov. 19, 2020.</a>” BIPOC is an acronym for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color.

<a href="https://www.ithaca.edu/first-generation-students/ithaca-firsts-mentor-program/paula-ioanide-center-study-culture-race-and-ethnicity">Paula Ioanide</a> is an Associate Professor in the Center for the Study of Culture, Race, and Ethnicity at Ithaca College. Her university profile states that Ioanide “is passionate about social justice, equity, ending mass incarceration, and creating cultures of resistance that honor people’s dignity. She teaches courses of systemic racism, gender and sexual politics, mass incarceration, and the politics of whiteness in the United States.”

According to the website for her organization <a href="https://risetoequity.com/dr-paula-ioanide">Rise to Equity</a>, Ioanide studied under Professor <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/angeladavis">Angela Davis</a> in the <a href="https://histcon.ucsc.edu/index.html">History of Consciousness</a> program at the University of California, Santa Cruz. According to<a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/former-black-panther-angela-davis-shocked-learn-descendant-mayflower"> Fox News</a>, “Davis is notorious for working with the Communist Party USA and the Black Panther Party in the 1960s and 70s. Her involvement in the armed takeover of a California courtroom resulted in four deaths and her placement on the FBI's Most Wanted List.”

Ioanide is also a “Diversity and Inclusion Influencer” for Rise to Equity. Through this organization, Ioanide seeks to “make current DEI scholarship understandable and practical.” Ionaide also helps “people build equitable, diverse, and inclusive workplaces and organizations in two ways.”:
“I conduct general workshops focused on offering people ‘best practices’ related to diversity, equity, and inclusion. My extensive experience in facilitating workshops on these issues has taught me to approach this work with compassion, honesty, and commitment.”
“I offer personal consultation services to organizations and businesses that are interested in developing an DEI plan specific to their workplace needs and structures. I invite you to join me in co-creating a thrivable, equitable world for all.”
In her first book, titled <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Emotional-Politics-Racism-Colorblindness-Comparative/dp/0804795479">“The Emotional Politics of Racism”</a> (2015), Ioanide argued: 
“Clearly, almost all the affective presumptions and embodied entitlements assumed by dominant Americans correlate with white racial identity and/or U.S. citizenship.” 
Ioanide does not address what she means by “affective presumptions and embodied entitlements.”

She continues by discussing entitlements, which she claims white people are born with, along with other mental and behavioral patterns that they allegedly possess: 
“Although we may presume that white people are born with such entitlements, it is important to understand that dominant white Americans’ embodied organization is also affirmed by projections, external gazes, and cultural assumptions expressed by other people, including people of color. In other words, it is not just that white American citizens give these entitlements to themselves, or that legal and institutional systems constantly reinforce them; the practices of other people award these entitlements to dominant Americans by virtue of not questioning, not disrupting, or not reformulating the cultural associations that coalesce into American-ness = citizenship = whiteness.”
Ioanide uses the term “dominant U.S. publics” in her book, which she defines in the following manner: 
“[M]y phrase dominant U.S. publics tries to suggest that whiteness and American-ness manifest in embodied identities; but they are also ideological worldviews and value systems that people of color and minorities can (consciously or unconsciously) reinforce.”
Following “The Emotional Politics of Racism,” Ioanide co-edited and co-wrote a book titled, “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Antiracism-Inc-Racial-Justice-Matters/dp/1950192237">Antiracism Inc. “Why the Way We Talk about Racial Justice Matters”</a> (2019).

In the book’s first chapter, titled “Antiracism Incorporated,” co-authors Felice Blake and Ioanide and claim that Martin Luther King Jr. is a “moral authority.” This title is used when referring to Arizona Superintendent of Education Tom Horne’s allusion to King when he was arguing “for the state’s ban on ethnic studies programs.”
“Appropriating King’s moral authority, Horne declares himself the champion of antiracism. In a gross neutralization of King’s radical visions for racial justice, Horne mimics antiracist claims to reproduce racial oppression.”
Towards the end of the chapter, the authors explain the objective of the book:
“Antiracism Inc.: Why the Way We Talk about Racial Justice Matters grapples with the peculiar impasses produced when the empirical evidence of systemic racism’s persistence fails to make a diﬀerence due to the assumption that liberal democracies are already antiracist. 
Moreover, they state that “Antiracism Inc…” 
 “[C]ontends with the very real problems people face in communities where their testimonies are refused, inverted, or incorporated toward agendas that further their oppression. [And the book] examines the ways intra-racial and intracommunal hurts and conﬂicts are negotiated given the dominant refusal to acknowledge systemic grievances.”
The authors also address what they deem are obstacles to “racial justice movements:”
“Currently, radical racial justice movements face the enormous challenge of ﬁghting the resurgence of overt forms of racism in the neo-fascist era of Trump, and the covert forms embedded in neoliberal institutional policies that endorse sanitized and de-radicalized forms of antiracism, diversity, multiculturalism, and colorblindness.”
They further claim that those who contest political correctness do so for racial purposes: 
“Yet in practice, the opposition to political correctness in favor of free speech is a thinly veiled mechanism for protecting and reifying white racial hegemony.”
According to the authors, free speech is used as a guide to attack other racial groups:
“Hostility towards a politically correct term like “undocumented” for instance, is about preserving the right to discriminate against “illegal aliens” as a way to protect citizens and the nation. Resistance to the phrase “white privilege” and to critiques of traditional masculinity is about maintaining control over who represents the national collective.”
In an article for <a href="https://www.ithaca.edu/news/race-power-and-resistance-major-will-center-under-represented-voices">IC News</a>, Ioanide “highlighted the flexibility of [Ithaca College’s Race, Power and Resistance]... major”: 
“We conceptualized the race, power and resistance major with flexibility in mind. It was to allow students to not only explore our department, but also multiple departments to get those different interdisciplinary perspectives… The Ithaca Forever plan includes the goal that Ithaca College will become a model for diversity, equity and inclusion.”

Dr. Sumanas Jordan is an <a href="https://www.feinberg.northwestern.edu/faculty-profiles/az/profile.html?xid=41686#publications" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Assistant Professor of Plastic Surgery and the founding director of Northwestern Medicine’s Gender Pathways Program.</a> She has been performing gender-affirming surgeries at Northwestern Medicine since 2018.
The <a href="https://www.nm.org/conditions-and-care-areas/gender-pathways-program" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gender Pathways Program</a> is “committed to providing gender-affirming care to transgender and gender nonbinary patients.” A 2020 <a href="https://news.northwestern.edu/stories/2020/06/gender-pathways-program-makes-trans-health-care-a-priority/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Northwestern Now</a> article says the program “offers feminizing and masculinizing facial, top and bottom surgeries, as well as connections for hormone therapy, primary care, preventative health screenings and laser hair removal.”
Dr. Jordan was the lead author of a study released in September 2022, titled <a href="https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapediatrics/article-abstract/2796426?resultClick=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Top Surgery and Chest Dysphoria Among Transmasculine and Nonbinary Adolescents and Young Adults.”</a> The study sought to answer the question: “Does gender-affirming top surgery improve chest dysphoria, gender congruence, and body image in transmasculine and nonbinary adolescents and young adults?”
The participants in the study ranged in age from 13 to 24, with an average age of 18. In a <a href="https://www.chicagotribune.com/business/ct-biz-surgery-transgender-teens-northwestern-study-20220926-2yrapzgitzatla6cnzv2xqhzvm-story.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chicago Tribune</a> article about the study, Dr. Jordan states:
“Our findings are that top surgery (to remove the breasts) benefits these teenagers and young adults.”
She adds that she does not believe all teens should be required to delay these life-altering surgeries until age 18:
“If you had any other medical conditions where you said, ‘I’m not going to treat your diabetes or high blood pressure until you’re 18’ or ‘I’m going to hold off on treating you for years,’ it’s not ethical to withhold care for that long.” 
In a <a href="https://news.nm.org/study-top-surgery-significantly-improves-quality-of-life-in-transmasculine-and-nonbinary-teens-and-young-adults/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Northwestern Medicine press release</a>, Dr. Jordan states:
“Patients who choose gender-affirming top surgery feel better about their bodies, and it enhances their quality of life. Our hope is that this study will now be used as a resource for teens, young adults and for families who want to learn more about surgical transition options.” 
Dr. Jordan’s <a href="https://northwesternplasticsurgery.com/chicago-plastic-surgery/sumanas-jordan-md/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">biography</a> states that she “welcomes all gender identities and offers top surgery, vaginoplasty, and phalloplasty for transgender and non-binary individuals.”

Northwestern University

Northwestern University is the home of a faculty and student center called the Institute for Sexual and Gender Minority Health and Wellbeing (ISGMH). According to the institute’s “History” <a href="https://isgmh.northwestern.edu/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">section</a>:
“[ISGMH] was founded in 2015 and is the first university-wide institute in the country focused exclusively on research to improve the health of the sexual and gender minority (SGM) community…it was founded with the support of the Office of the Provost, the Office of Research, and the Feinberg School of Medicine.”
In June 2024, Campus Reform <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article/northwestern-student-govt-calls-segregated-pride-house-lgbt-identifying-students-/25690" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> that Northwestern University’s student body government called for LGBT-identifying students to have segregated housing on campus. The article links to a “Pride House” <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Re-QKyAz6kU1by5rroW9pbla4_UpcuXLSTMOi8-lMNk/edit?tab=t.0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">resolution</a> that declares, among other things:
“Whereas, one of the goals of All Gender Housing is to address tensions often felt by queer and transgender students in finding a compatible roommate. All Gender Housing exists allows[sic] any two students to live together regardless of their gender identity—preventing the creation of an LGBTQ community in All-Gender Housing areas.”
Campus Reform said, that according to Northwestern University’s student government <a href="https://www.northwestern.edu/gsrc/education/dashboard-data.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">survey data</a>, about 25% of students identify as LGBTQ+. The university also <a href="https://news.northwestern.edu/stories/2024/02/new-home-for-gender-and-sexuality-resource-center/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">features</a> a “Gender and Sexuality Resource Center” to support gender-confused students.
Northwestern University’s Pritzker School of Law is also in the process of defending students&#8217; so-called LGBTQI+ rights, including the right to legally change one’s name to match their gender identity. 
On October 15, The Daily Northwestern <a href="https://dailynorthwestern.com/2024/10/15/lateststories/northwestern-lgbtqi-rights-clinic-prepares-to-represent-clients-in-court/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a>:
“Law students are working at the clinic this semester to help four clients through the process of changing their names…’ All of our clients identify as nonbinary or transgender, and thus are seeking to change their names so that their legal name reflects better who they are,’ said Pritzker Prof. Kara Ingelhart, the clinic’s director.”
The source also said a 711 license is required for students who want to represent a client this way and are only “allowed to practice under a licensed attorney.” Campus Reform also <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article/-northwestern-law-students-working-changing-legal-names-transgender-identifying-people/26613" target="_blank" rel="noopener">covered</a> this story, highlighting that the purpose of this project was “the universal right of gender-self-determination” and the “transformative justice principles as necessary alternatives to the criminal punishment system.”

<a href="https://www.mccormick.northwestern.edu/research-faculty/directory/profiles/butz-arthur.html">Arthur Butz</a> is an associate professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Northwestern University. Butz is an open Holocaust denier and has authored a number of books and articles denying that millions of Jews perished in Nazi concentration camps.

In his book, The Hoax of the 20th-Century, Butz <a href="https://archive.org/details/HoaxOfTheTwentiethCentury/page/n231/mode/2up?q=23">claims</a> that there is no proof of any intent by the Nazis to exterminate Europe’s Jews. Butz <a href="https://canarymission.org/professor/Arthur_Butz">states</a>,

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1090 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-72-e1612455391943-1024x358.png" alt="" width="580" height="203" />Butz has <a href="https://archive.nytimes.com/www.nytimes.com/library/cyber/week/011097holocaust.html">used</a> his university-provided internet access to further publish his views. In an op-ed for the Daily Northwestern, he <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110608193504/http://www.codoh.com/butz/di/intro.html">claimed</a> that the Jews that did perish in the camps died from typhus, and there was no concerted effort by the Nazis to exterminate Jews. In the same article, Butz claimed that the Nuremberg Trials were needed to establish the “legend” of the holocaust, due to there being no physical proof of an extermination campaign by the Germans.

In a 1996 paper, Butz openly <a href="https://codoh.com/library/document/jewish-testimonies-in-the-postwar-era/en/">attacked</a> Holocaust victims, accusing them of “malicious lying,” and greatly exaggerating atrocities suffered by their families:

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1091 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-73-e1612455532261-1024x353.png" alt="" width="580" height="200" />

In an interview with an Iranian news station, Butz stated that <a href="https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-2006-02-04-0602040129-story.html">he agreed</a> with Iranian Prime Minister Mahmoud Ahmadinejad that the Holocaust was a “myth.” He went on to state that the Holocaust was a “deliberately conceived falsehood” in order to create the state of Israel and congratulated the Prime Minister for denying its existence:

“I congratulate him on becoming the first head of state to speak out clearly on [the Holocaust] and regret only that it was not a Western head of state”

Despite his beliefs, Northwestern University <a href="https://www.northwestern.edu/newscenter/stories/2006/02/bienen.html">continues</a> to employ Butz. University President Henry S. Bienen stated that while his opinions are “reprehensible,” no action can be taken as Butz’s views are personal and expressed outside of the classroom.

<a href="https://www.sociology.northwestern.edu/people/faculty/core/laura-beth-nielsen.html">Dr. Laura Beth Nielsen</a> is a Professor of Sociology at Northwestern University. She wrote in an op-ed that there are good arguments for restricting free speech rights. She said that racist hate speech has been linked to higher rates of smoking and obesity, for example. Supporting her argument for restricting speech, she pointed out that recently the Supreme Court ruled that a music group ("The Slants", a band made up of Asian-Americans) was allowed to use a derogatory name as their band name, although she did not point out the band was using the name to mock people who use the name in a derogatory fashion.

<a href="https://www.medill.northwestern.edu/directory/faculty/steven-thrasher.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Steven Thrasher</a> is an Assistant Professor of Journalism and the Daniel H. Renberg Chair of Social Justice in Reporting at Northwestern University. His university biography details his role as having an “emphasis on issues relevant to the LGBTQ community.” 

Professor Thrasher is on record defending the riots and looting that occurred in response to George Floyd's death. In an interview with <a href="https://www.npr.org/2020/05/31/866306943/officials-have-condemned-violence-amid-george-floyd-protests-journalist-steven-t" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NPR</a>, he described the rampant destruction and burning of police stations by rioters as a "proportionate response."

Thrasher was previously the subject of controversy after his <a href="https://legalinsurrection.com/2019/05/nyu-graduation-speaker-calls-trump-a-fascist-praises-anti-israel-bds-movement/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">commencement speech</a> at New York University, in which he referred to then-President Donald Trump as a “fascist” saying:

“Many of us have been together at Occupy Wall Street, and at Black Lives Matter protests, and against that fascist in the White House … I am so proud, so proud, of NYU’s chapters of Students for Justice in Palestine and Jewish Voices for Peace for supporting the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement against the apartheid state government in Israel.”

It was later discovered that he had made numerous <a href="https://www.israellycool.com/2019/05/24/exposed-bds-professor-stephen-thrashers-antisemitic-tweets/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">anti-Semitic remarks</a> on his <a href="https://x.com/thrasherxy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Twitter account</a>.

During anti-Israel protests on college campuses across the United States, Thrasher <a href="https://lithub.com/you-are-being-lied-to-about-gaza-solidarity-camps-by-university-presidents-mainstream-media-and-politicians/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">published an opinion editorial</a> with Lit Hub in which he claimed the public was being lied to about the violence reported by mainstream media. 

Upon visiting several “Liberation Zones”, Thrasher wrote:
“Over the previous few days, I had gone to bed or woken up to dark, war-like scenes of unspeakable violence waged by police and state troopers who were often wielding machine guns, lobbing chemical weapons, and shooting rubber-coated bullets. Though some of the police raids happened in daylight, most have happened at night, with projectile-gun blasts and flash bangs lighting up sinister spectacles of utter chaos.”

Dr. Sumanas Jordan is an <a href="https://www.feinberg.northwestern.edu/faculty-profiles/az/profile.html?xid=41686#publications" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Assistant Professor of Plastic Surgery and the founding director of Northwestern Medicine’s Gender Pathways Program.</a> She has been performing gender-affirming surgeries at Northwestern Medicine since 2018.

The <a href="https://www.nm.org/conditions-and-care-areas/gender-pathways-program" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gender Pathways Program</a> is “committed to providing gender-affirming care to transgender and gender nonbinary patients.” A 2020 <a href="https://news.northwestern.edu/stories/2020/06/gender-pathways-program-makes-trans-health-care-a-priority/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Northwestern Now</a> article says the program “offers feminizing and masculinizing facial, top and bottom surgeries, as well as connections for hormone therapy, primary care, preventative health screenings and laser hair removal.”

Dr. Jordan was the lead author of a study released in September 2022, titled <a href="https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapediatrics/article-abstract/2796426?resultClick=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Top Surgery and Chest Dysphoria Among Transmasculine and Nonbinary Adolescents and Young Adults.”</a> The study sought to answer the question: “Does gender-affirming top surgery improve chest dysphoria, gender congruence, and body image in transmasculine and nonbinary adolescents and young adults?”

The participants in the study ranged in age from 13 to 24, with an average age of 18. In a <a href="https://www.chicagotribune.com/business/ct-biz-surgery-transgender-teens-northwestern-study-20220926-2yrapzgitzatla6cnzv2xqhzvm-story.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chicago Tribune</a> article about the study, Dr. Jordan states:
“Our findings are that top surgery (to remove the breasts) benefits these teenagers and young adults.”
She adds that she does not believe all teens should be required to delay these life-altering surgeries until age 18:
“If you had any other medical conditions where you said, ‘I’m not going to treat your diabetes or high blood pressure until you’re 18’ or ‘I’m going to hold off on treating you for years,’ it’s not ethical to withhold care for that long.” 
In a <a href="https://news.nm.org/study-top-surgery-significantly-improves-quality-of-life-in-transmasculine-and-nonbinary-teens-and-young-adults/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Northwestern Medicine press release</a>, Dr. Jordan states:
“Patients who choose gender-affirming top surgery feel better about their bodies, and it enhances their quality of life. Our hope is that this study will now be used as a resource for teens, young adults and for families who want to learn more about surgical transition options.” 
Dr. Jordan’s <a href="https://northwesternplasticsurgery.com/chicago-plastic-surgery/sumanas-jordan-md/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">biography</a> states that she “welcomes all gender identities and offers top surgery, vaginoplasty, and phalloplasty for transgender and non-binary individuals.”

Thomas Billard is an <a href="https://communication.northwestern.edu/faculty/thomas-billard.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Assistant Professor in the School of Communication</a> and, by courtesy, the Department of Sociology at Northwestern University. Billard goes by ‘TJ’ and uses ‘they/them’ and ‘he/him’ pronouns. He is the founding executive director of the <a href="https://www.appliedtransstudies.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Center for Applied Transgender Studies</a> in Chicago and editor of the Center’s flagship journal, the <a href="https://bulletin.appliedtransstudies.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bulletin of Applied Transgender Studies.</a>

Professor Billard has been outspoken against legislation preventing children from receiving hormones and sex reassingment surgeries. After Arkansas became the first state to prohibit physicians from providing hormone treatments, puberty blockers, or surgeries to minors, Billard was quoted in a <a href="https://news.northwestern.edu/stories/2021/04/whats-the-impact-on-transgender-youth-of-arkansas-ban-and-other-legislation/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Northwestern Now</a> article:
“What is happening in Arkansas is merely the latest instance of conservatives weaponizing health misinformation against transgender communities to justify discrimination. Arkansas legislators called their bill the Save Adolescents from Experimentation Act, but the fact is gender-affirming care for transgender youth is safe and necessary.” 
He continues:
“And outlawing that care will cost trans lives. Doctors know this. Trans people know this. Arkansas legislators know this. But conservatives exploit public unawareness of the intricacies of transgender medical care, peddle misinformation and then use that misinformation to justify prejudicial legislation.” 
After Roe v. Wade was overturned by the Supreme Court, Billard was asked his thoughts on the <a href="https://news.northwestern.edu/stories/2022/06/virtual-press-conference-on-roe-v-wade-reversal" target="_blank" rel="noopener">implications of the ruling</a> for issues such as trans rights, same-sex marriage and contraception access. He stated:
“When we look across the landscape of the conservative movement’s legislative efforts in different states, it’s part of a general program of attacking bodily autonomy and private rights to necessary health care.”

In 2022, Bowen participated in a discussion on how to invite “transgender” patients into medical communities. In a <a href="https://www.urologytimes.com/view/lugpa-speaker-on-welcoming-gender-diverse-patients-in-the-urology-practice" target="_blank" rel="noopener">three-minute recap</a>, Bowen declared:
“My talk was really focused on tips and tricks for welcoming any gender-diverse patient into your practice, [and] how to make them have a great healthcare experience—both in the general clinic sense and also for any urologic complaint they come in with—and really outside of the bottom surgery aspect that we talk about so frequently.”
“Bottom surgery” refers to a biological male having his penis reconstructed into a “vagina.”

<a href="https://psychology.northwestern.edu/people/faculty/core/profiles/sylvia-perry.html">Sylvia Perry</a> is an Associate Professor of Psychology at Northwestern University. 

She also serves as the Principle Investigator for the<a href="http://www.sciplab.com/people" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Social Cognition and Intergroup Processes</a> (SCIP) Laboratory, which studies the spread of inherent, racial bias in children, parents, and communities. 

Perry encourages parents to discuss race, police brutality, and white privilege with their children. During an interview with the campus's news site <a href="https://news.northwestern.edu/stories/2022/02/experts-on-black-history-month/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Northwestern Now</a>, Perry decries parents who take a “passive approach” in talking about race. She alleges that children absorb society's racial stances and even toddlers can understand race: 

“If your child can have a conversation with you, they are old enough to start having conversations about race. As early as preschool, children start showing racial group favoritism.” 

In a study titled, “<a href="https://psyarxiv.com/3xdg8/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Initial Evidence that Parent-Child Conversations about Race Reduce Racial Biases Among White US Children</a>,” Perry accuses children of harboring innate “pro-white/anti-black” biases. Dr. Perry concludes that parents can help their children become “race-conscious” by eschewing “color-blind” stances and fostering uncomfortable discussions about racism.  

Another study—“<a href="https://static1.squarespace.com/static/57b346ade4fcb5df8e55a622/t/5fd970632ef1c91c7feb6ac2/1608085603904/George+et+al.+Child+Development+LOI.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Raising an Anti-Racist Child: Black Americans Parents’ Perceptions of and Recommendations for White Parents</a>,”—alleges racial conversations are needed to foster “anti-racism” within children successfully. 

In his paper, “<a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9545064/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Racial Socialization Messages in White Parents’ Discussions of Current Events Involving Racism</a>,” Perry praises the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement for raising white Americans' consciousness about white privilege, police brutality, and systemic racism. 

While acknowledging that BLM is useful in facilitating “color-conscious conversations,” Dr. Perry is still dismayed by the majority of white Americans whom she claims still resist the idea they benefit from their race. She concludes that researchers must determine how to better direct white people to discuss the aforementioned issues—namely whiteness—so parents are equipped to discuss their racial privilege.

She is also the founding psychologist of Lurie Children’s Gender &amp; Sex Development Program.

Campus Reform reports that Chen was in charge of a study that was criticized for having no control group. The study—”<a href="https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2206297" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Psychosocial Functioning in Transgender Youth after 2 Years of Hormones</a>”—analyzed 315 participants, between the ages of 12 and 20, over the course of two years.

Participants received “gender-affirming hormones,” which are hormones to make their male or female bodies resemble bodies of the opposite sex. Chen claims, “During the study period, appearance congruence, positive affect, and life satisfaction increased, and depression and anxiety symptoms decreased.”

However, <a href="https://donoharmmedicine.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Do No Harm</a>—an organization of doctors, nurses, and health care professionals—questioned the study’s lack of a control group.

“The absence of any control group raises the possibility that ongoing psychological counseling and therapy may explain the slight improvement in some parameters of the study.” 
Do No Harm’s report also notes:
“The researchers and four clinics featured in this study have a well-publicized history of radical activism and advocacy for the medical transition of children … Given this obvious bias, there is a high likelihood that study participants were steered towards responses that align with the activism promoted by these clinics.” 
<a href="https://campusreform.org/article?id=21832" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Campus Reform</a> reports that Chen is now part of another study, called “A Longitudinal Study of Gender Nonconformity in Prepubescent Children.” The study looks at the effects of the social transition of kids as young as six years old.

In March 2023, Chen—along with dozens of other professors—signed a “<a href="https://www.gamcstatement.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Statement Regarding Laws Restricting Gender Affirming Medical Care</a>.” The statement focuses on two key points:
“First, there is consensus in the field, and amongst these signatories, that gender affirming medical care is important and beneficial for many transgender youth. Second, we do not support laws restricting access to gender affirmative care.” 
The signatories conclude their <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article?id=21908" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a>:

<a href="https://afam.northwestern.edu/people/faculty/barnor-hesse.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Barnor Hesse</a> is an Associate Professor of African American Studies, Political Studies, and Sociology at Northwestern University. According to his university profile, his research interests include, but are not limited to: black political thought, blackness and affect, and race and governmentality.

Hesse teaches several undergraduate courses, including “Unsettling Whiteness” and “Racism in Western Modernity.” The course description for “<a href="https://class-descriptions.northwestern.edu/4820/WCAS/AF_AM_ST/39740" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Unsettling Whiteness</a>” says the course “will examine whiteness in four main ways: as the racialization of white populations; as the formation of white supremacy; as the cultural institution of the White Gaze; and as the regime of White Democracy.”

“<a href="https://afam.northwestern.edu/courses/2021-2022/class-schedules/spring-2022-class-schedule.html#courses" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Racism in Western Modernity</a>” says the course “is not overly concerned with empirical case studies or attitudinal assessments; it promotes a conceptual approach rather than a descriptive one.” Instead:
“It will be concerned with explaining the apparent racial discrepancies and racial injustices of western modernity (e.g. democracies combined with racism, liberalism combined with imperialism) and how those racial discrepancies and racial injustices inform, shape and define western societies like the United States.” 
Hesse created a resource called “<a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/nyc-public-school-asks-parents-to-reflect-on-their-whiteness" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The 8 White Identities</a>.” East Side Community School in Manhattan came under fire after they gave “The 8 White Identities” to every parent “as part of a series of materials meant for reflection” and as “food for thought.”

Hesse’s curriculum claims,
“There is a regime of whiteness, and there are action-oriented white identities. People who identify with whiteness are one of these. It’s about time we build an ethnography of whiteness, since white people have been the ones writing about and governing Others.” 
Hesse’s “white identities” range from “White Supremacist” to “White Abolitionist:”

At the event, Hesse discussed his views on the relationships between black studies and the world, saying:
“Black Studies doesn’t just see democracy. It sees democracy and white supremacy. The only democracy we’ve ever known in Western society is a white democracy. Black studies doesn’t just see Western civilization. It sees as the conditions of Western civilization, Western barbarism. So you see, with that angle of vision, how the world seems to tilt almost on its axis.”

In March 2023, Coyne—along with <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article?id=21908" target="_blank" rel="noopener">dozens of other professors</a>—signed a “<a href="https://www.gamcstatement.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Statement Regarding Laws Restricting Gender Affirming Medical Care</a>.” The full statement can be seen below:
We are clinicians and researchers who work with and study transgender and gender diverse youth. Many of us are involved in debates about how best to care for transgender and gender diverse youth – debates about to whom, when, and how gender affirming medical care might best be provided.  Discussion of some of these debates has moved into the public sphere. We hold varying perspectives on these issues and sometimes disagree.
However, often lost in the public version of these debates is our strong agreement about two central points that we wish to highlight here. First, there is consensus in the field, and amongst these signatories, that gender affirming medical care is important and beneficial for many transgender youth. Second, we do not support laws restricting access to gender affirmative care. As with all medical care, we believe an adolescent’s health care, including their access to gender affirming medical care, should be determined by the youth along with their families and health care teams. 
Recently, our internal debate and media reports of our debate concerning how best to care for transgender youth have been cited to support laws banning gender affirmative medical care for minors, punishing doctors who provide this care, or otherwise limiting this care. We write this letter to make our position on this crystal clear: The signatories below all believe, based on the current evidence, that gender affirmative medical care is an important part of many transgender adolescents’ overall care, and that states and health systems should not restrict access to that care.
We will continue to debate aspects of gender affirming care, just as clinicians and researchers in all areas of medicine debate aspects of care. We will continue to update our views as new data and more evidence are accrued. However, we request that politicians and others stop using our debates to justify bans of gender affirmative care. We wish to state for the public record, we do not support these efforts.

<a href="https://www.feinberg.northwestern.edu/faculty-profiles/az/profile.html?xid=16112" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Katie Watson</a> is an Associate Professor of Medical Education, Medical Social Science, and Obstetrics and Gynecology at Northwestern University. According to Watson’s university profile, she is well known for her “scholarship in abortion ethics, practice, and law.”

Watson wrote a June 2023 opinion piece for the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20230624112626/https://www.houstonchronicle.com/opinion/outlook/article/feminist-family-values-roe-wade-18168285.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Houston Chronicle</a> titled, “One year post-roe, it’s time for feminist ‘family values.’” She asserts, “The Supreme Court was stunningly wrong to reverse Roe v. Wade, and historians will judge it harshly.” However, she goes on to say that she does not wish for the return of Roe v. Wade, rather:
“I want something better: reproductive justice legislation and state constitutional amendments that protect the right to not have children, the right to have children, the right to parent the children we have and help doing all of the above when we need it.” 
Throughout the article, Watson calls for a “fresh set of family values.” She believes family values have long been the “code for a decrepit view that women were born to be slaves to biology, babies and men.” Instead, “Valuing women’s brains and hearts more than their uteruses means respecting when they don’t want to have a baby - now, again or ever - and also respecting when they do.”

Watson also believes the term “mothering” no longer solely applies to women, saying:
“...’Mothering’ can be understood as gender-neutral: Some women don’t give their children the nurturing they need, and many men and nonbinary people do. ‘Mothering’ is shorthand for the investment in children women have historically made, but now is open to anyone.” 
In July 2023, Watson co-authored an article for <a href="https://www.statnews.com/2023/07/28/doctors-providing-abortion-referral-information-states/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">STAT News</a> titled, “Doctors in states that ban abortion can still refer patients elsewhere. Why are so few doing that?” Watson and her co-authors claim “all-options pregnancy counseling has been the governing standard of care for decades” and doctors have an “ethical imperative” to provide abortion information to their patients.
“Doctors’ silence violates their central ethical obligations to respect patients’ autonomy, advance justice, and promote beneficence.” 
The authors encourage doctors to break the law if necessary, quoting the American Medical Association’s Code of Ethics’ preamble that instructs, “In exceptional circumstances of unjust laws, ethical responsibilities should supersede legal duties.” They allege:
“When doctors prioritize their own interests in avoiding potential legal risks above the health of their patients, they negate their core ethical and professional obligations to their patients.” 
They conclude by calling on professional organizations within the healthcare field to “adopt guidelines requiring the sharing of abortion information. They should specify, at a minimum, that clinicians share the names of trusted websites where patients can find accurate information about abortion options, and counsel their patients on data privacy.”

<a href="https://www.qatar.northwestern.edu/directory/profiles/al-hroub-khaled.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Khaled AL-Hroub</a> is a professor in residence at Northwestern University’s overseas campus in Qatar. According to his university profile, his focus is “Middle Eastern studies and politics with particular interest on Islam and politics, Arab-Israeli conflict and Arab media studies.”

On October 16, 2023, Hroub was a guest on the Boston NPR (WBUR) program “On Point.” During the interview, Hroub “expressed doubt that women and children had been killed by Hamas” during the terror group’s attack on Israel. WBUR <a href="https://www.wbur.org/onpoint/2023/10/16/hamas-a-history-lesson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pulled the program from national distribution</a> and released a statement that read, in part:
“This episode of On Point did not meet our editorial standards. It is paramount to acknowledge when our work falls short of our standards. … The program was live and as it progressed, Professor Hroub expressed doubt that women and children had been killed by Hamas in its October 7 attack on Israel.”
“On Point Host Meghna Chakrabarti countered with statements of fact to correct the record. But that does not negate the impact of hearing Professor Hroub’s statements. On Point strives to contribute thoughtfully to the public discourse, and in an environment where misinformation is both rampant and dangerous, we felt compelled to pull this hour of our programming from national distribution after its initial broadcast.” 
During the program, Hroub claimed he had not seen any “credible” reporting that Hamas terrorists had killed civilians in their beds. He also stated, “We have read of course, you know, the beheading of 40 babies and raping women and all of that, and of course, when you hear these things, I myself, I was shocked and then it turned out to be kind of fabricated and all of that.”

Hroub believes Israeli media feeds “misinformation” to the public and defended his comments to <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/npr-affiliate-pulls-show-after-guest-doubted-hamas-killed-women-children-during-terror-attacks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fox News Digital</a>:
“I said that the source of all the stories about Hamas beheading 40 babies and raping women were mostly Israeli. These stories proved to be all lies, baseless and fabricated. By the same token, all the figures about the dead on the Israeli side come from Israeli sources, including the breakdown of numbers between soldiers and civilians. There is no third and/or neutral party to verify these news and figures, and names of the killed. I’m not defending Hamas here, I’m asking for verified information.” 
Northwestern University has tried to distance itself from Hroub’s comments and released the following <a href="https://news.northwestern.edu/stories/2023/10/university-statement-on-professor-khaled-al-hroubs-interview-with-wbur/?fj=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a>:
“While Northwestern firmly supports academic freedom and freedom of expression, we condemn any attempt to minimize or misrepresent the horrific killing of Israeli civilians by Hamas on Oct. 7. Khaled AL-Hroub’s opinions are his own. Individual faculty members do not represent the views or beliefs of the University.”

<a href="https://communication.northwestern.edu/faculty/moya-bailey.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Moya Bailey</a> is an Associate Professor in the Department of Communication Studies at Northwestern University. Bailey’s work “focuses on marginalized groups’ use of digital media to promote social justice, and she is interested in how race, gender, and sexuality are represented in media and medicine.”

Bailey authored a book titled “<a href="https://www.transformisogynoir.com/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Misogynoir Transformed</a>,” which highlights “black women’s digital resistance to anti-black misogyny on YouTube, Facebook, Tumblr, and other platforms.” The term “misogynoir” was coined by Bailey and added to the Merriam-Webster dictionary in 2023. She defines the term as “the anti-black, racist misogyny that black women—and people perceived as black women—experience.”

As an <a href="https://magazine.northwestern.edu/voices/moya-bailey-misogynoir-racism-misogyny-merriam-webster-digital-apothecary/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">example of “misogynoir,”</a> Bailey cites the maternal morbidity rates for black women. She attributes the higher negative health outcomes to “misogynoir,” saying, “There’s no other explanation except for the particular combination of anti-black racism and misogyny that’s impacting their birthing experiences.”

Bailey is the director and founder of the <a href="https://www.digitalapothecary.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Digital Apothecary lab</a>, “a hybrid digital and physical lab dedicated to combining ancient and new technologies in an effort to produce processes and projects that aid those most marginalized in society.”

One of the <a href="https://www.digitalapothecary.org/projects" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lab’s projects</a> “Ethical Internet?” is described by Bailey:
“While there can be no ethical engagement with the internet under capitalism, I do think there is a less harmful path for our web wandering to take, one that my students and I have begun to explore in a course of the same name.” 
Bailey wrote an article on “ethical internet” for <a href="https://just-tech.ssrc.org/articles/an-ethical-internet/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Just Tech</a> in which she refers to the internet as a “<a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/northwestern-lab-envisions-ethical-internet-without-capitalism/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">military-derived technology</a>.” She recounts her family getting the internet for the first time when she was in fifth grade.
“Little did I know that this access was afforded to me because of my Western, class, and educational privilege. I did not know about the child labor of girls who looked like me and who would also have been in the fifth grade, mining for minerals that made my internet connection possible in what we now recognize as the Democratic Republic of the Congo.” 
Bailey claims the internet “relies on oppression to exist” and says she seeks answers to the following questions:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“Can this military-derived, exploitatively built, capitalistically driven, entity of the internet be reconfigured from the ground up in a way that doesn’t exploit human or natural resources?”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“Can the internet be just?”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“Can we have an ethical internet?”</li>
</ul>
One of her potential solutions to these questions is “internet quiet hours, where the internet sleeps as we do, light pollution is eradicated, and electrical waves are reduced.” She concludes, “If we are willing to slow down and move with intention, then we may be able to develop sustainable and non-exploitative internet infrastructures that attend to the people and resources throughout the digital supply chain.”

Northwestern University is the home of a faculty and student center called the Institute for Sexual and Gender Minority Health and Wellbeing (ISGMH). According to the institute’s “History” <a href="https://isgmh.northwestern.edu/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">section</a>:

“[ISGMH] was founded in 2015 and is the first university-wide institute in the country focused exclusively on research to improve the health of the sexual and gender minority (SGM) community…it was founded with the support of the Office of the Provost, the Office of Research, and the Feinberg School of Medicine.”

In June 2024, Campus Reform <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article/northwestern-student-govt-calls-segregated-pride-house-lgbt-identifying-students-/25690" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> that Northwestern University’s student body government called for LGBT-identifying students to have segregated housing on campus. The article links to a “Pride House” <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Re-QKyAz6kU1by5rroW9pbla4_UpcuXLSTMOi8-lMNk/edit?tab=t.0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">resolution</a> that declares, among other things:

“Whereas, one of the goals of All Gender Housing is to address tensions often felt by queer and transgender students in finding a compatible roommate. All Gender Housing exists allows[sic] any two students to live together regardless of their gender identity—preventing the creation of an LGBTQ community in All-Gender Housing areas.”

Campus Reform said, that according to Northwestern University’s student government <a href="https://www.northwestern.edu/gsrc/education/dashboard-data.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">survey data</a>, about 25% of students identify as LGBTQ+. The university also <a href="https://news.northwestern.edu/stories/2024/02/new-home-for-gender-and-sexuality-resource-center/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">features</a> a “Gender and Sexuality Resource Center” to support gender-confused students.

Northwestern University’s Pritzker School of Law is also in the process of defending students' so-called LGBTQI+ rights, including the right to legally change one’s name to match their gender identity. 

On October 15, The Daily Northwestern <a href="https://dailynorthwestern.com/2024/10/15/lateststories/northwestern-lgbtqi-rights-clinic-prepares-to-represent-clients-in-court/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a>:

“Law students are working at the clinic this semester to help four clients through the process of changing their names…’ All of our clients identify as nonbinary or transgender, and thus are seeking to change their names so that their legal name reflects better who they are,’ said Pritzker Prof. Kara Ingelhart, the clinic’s director.”

The source also said a 711 license is required for students who want to represent a client this way and are only “allowed to practice under a licensed attorney.” Campus Reform also <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article/-northwestern-law-students-working-changing-legal-names-transgender-identifying-people/26613" target="_blank" rel="noopener">covered</a> this story, highlighting that the purpose of this project was “the universal right of gender-self-determination” and the “transformative justice principles as necessary alternatives to the criminal punishment system.”

M Shelly Conner

<a href="https://uca.edu/ftcw/facultystaff/mshellyconner/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shelly Conner</a> is an Associate Professor of Creative Writing at the University of Central Arkansas. According to her university profile, Conner’s teaching specialties include “Creative Writing,” “Gender &amp; Women’s Studies,” and “African American Literature.”
Her profile describes her as a “multi-genre writer” who is the “creator of the Quare Life web series and has published essays on dapperqueer aesthetics, black womanhood, self-sustainable living and their intersections in various publications.”
One of Conner’s articles <a href="https://thegrio.com/2020/03/05/twenties-queer-black-women/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">describes her reaction</a> to the show “Twenties,” a show “written by a black queer woman with a black queer woman lead.” In discussing the main characters, Conner discusses her “rapt attention” in learning that a lesbian relationship in the show was “strictly casual.” However, she writes:
“I was midway through mental applause for presenting a lesbian relationship that wasn’t invested in chasing the model of heteronormative monogamy when I learned that Hattie’s [main character] partner is regarded as straight.” 
Conner goes on to describe how Hattie’s friends tell her to stop dating straight women, but Conner is disappointed to learn that the friends are also straight. She writes:
“It’s like when a caring white friend (but white nonetheless) gives genuine advice on something you experience as a Black person. No matter how sound or solid the advice, it’s mitigated through a person who not only hasn’t experienced the matter but also has de facto benefited from it at some time.” 
Conner finishes her article by commiserating that “Black queer/lesbian communities” tend to “remain outside of the scope of shows relegating us to always being the token.”
Another one of Conner’s articles was featured in <a href="https://thefeministwire.com/2014/11/male-desire-of-unconscious-women/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Feminist Wire</a> and titled “Don’t Get Caught Sleeping: Male Desire of Unconscious Women.” <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/1-in-3-college-women-are-raped-jesuit-womens-conference-tells-attendees/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The College Fix</a> wrote about the article saying Conner “argued that men are taught that sex is better when women are in a passive state.” The article states:
“Not only are young boys taught that it is their duty to initiate sexual contact with women, it is also presented that it should occur when women are in their most passive states.”

<a href="https://www.fandm.edu/directory/maria-elena-aldea-agudo.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Maria Elena Aldea Agudo</a> is a Senior Teaching Professor of Spanish and Director of the Spanish Language Center at Franklin and Marshall College. 
Aldea Agudo’s university profile describes her academic interest in Spanish history and how it has varied through the years:
“Initially, her scholarship focused on analyzing the idealized representations of war and heroic subjects by Spanish Fascist (Falangist) propaganda in the 1940s.
“After the 2008 economic crisis, her research examined the cinematic and literary depiction of that economic crisis in Spain and how identities were negotiated in this harsh situation. 
“Currently, her work focuses on trauma informed pedagogy.”
Aldea Agudo was one of 125 Franklin and Marshall faculty members who jointly signed a <a href="https://yaf.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Letter20of20Solidarity20Final.pdf.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">letter</a> to “denounce the [university’s] choice to invite transphobic speaker Paula Scanlan to our campus on March 27, in close proximity to Transgender Day of Visibility.”
Paula Scanlan was a teammate of “transgender” swimmer Lia Thomas, previously William Thomas, who swam on the women’s team at the University of Pennsylvania. Scanlan has <a href="https://rumble.com/v2sno54-the-university-wanted-us-to-be-quiet-lia-thomas-teammate-speaks-out-to-matt.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">expressed</a> that she was uncomfortable with Thomas being a member of the team due to his gender and felt her female teammates were overlooked in favor of Thomas’s greater strength and athleticism. 
Scanlan embarked on a lecture tour in partnership with Young America’s Foundation during the Spring 2024 semester to discuss her college swim experience at universities across the country. Her lecture was titled “Biological Men Should Not Compete in Women’s Sports.”
The faculty who wrote the letter state that Scanlan “is working with a well-funded, far-right ‘culture war’ machine that seeks to sow division, provoke backlash, generate publicity, and weaken public confidence in higher education.”
The writers further claim that Scanlan is “transphobic” because of her statements about Thomas. They say Scanlan has “refused to acknowledge the identity of the trans community:” 
“In videos of her campus visits available online, we have seen Scanlan disrespect, misgender, and mock trans people. Scanlan also has a history of (a) invoking the unsubstantiated idea that the presence of transgender women creates a threat of sexual violence to cisgender women, and (b) making direct reference to the physical appearance of Lia Thomas’s genitalia.”
Towards the end of their letter, the professors state their supposed commitment to free speech, no matter how disagreeable that speech may be to them. Yet, they are against the university inviting “speakers to campus whose demonstrated aim is to demean, devalue, and threaten the lives of our friends, family, and community members.” 
They conclude the letter with the following statements in affirmation of the “transgender community:”
“We believe that our role as a college community must include speaking out against such dehumanization. To the queer, trans, and nonbinary members of our community: you have allies on this campus who value and support you. We are committed to fighting alongside you. To President Altmann and the F&amp;M administration: we call on you to make a strong, unequivocal statement of care and support on behalf of all of our LGBTQ+ students, colleagues, and community members.”

<a href="https://www.fandm.edu/directory/stephanie-mcnulty.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Stephanie McNulty</a> is the Honorable and Mrs. John C. Kunkel Professor of Government at Franklin &amp; Marshall College. McNulty’s university profile states she is a “Latin Americanist with expertise in participatory governance, gender, decentralization, and development.”

In March 2021, McNulty co-authored an <a href="https://www.insidehighered.com/views/2021/03/12/colleges-must-acknowledge-challenges-facing-female-academics-who-juggle-work-and#.YHTMhYqX9L4.link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article</a> about the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on equity. The authors put forth the following goal to resolve what they deem to be the lessening of diversity and equity caused by COVID-19:
“For starters, every institution must acknowledge the problem and openly address what can appear invisible and ignored to those of us living in this reality. The academy risks emerging from this pandemic with less diversity and gender equity than before unless we change course. The first step is initiating a conversation and listening. Once people have a space to talk openly about their challenges, a lot of problem solving and solutions naturally emerge.”\

<a href="https://www.fandm.edu/directory/maria-elena-aldea-agudo.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Maria Elena Aldea Agudo</a> is a Senior Teaching Professor of Spanish and Director of the Spanish Language Center at Franklin and Marshall College. 

Aldea Agudo’s university profile describes her academic interest in Spanish history and how it has varied through the years:
“Initially, her scholarship focused on analyzing the idealized representations of war and heroic subjects by Spanish Fascist (Falangist) propaganda in the 1940s.
“After the 2008 economic crisis, her research examined the cinematic and literary depiction of that economic crisis in Spain and how identities were negotiated in this harsh situation. 
“Currently, her work focuses on trauma informed pedagogy.”
Aldea Agudo was one of 125 Franklin and Marshall faculty members who jointly signed a <a href="https://yaf.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Letter20of20Solidarity20Final.pdf.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">letter</a> to “denounce the [university’s] choice to invite transphobic speaker Paula Scanlan to our campus on March 27, in close proximity to Transgender Day of Visibility.”

Paula Scanlan was a teammate of “transgender” swimmer Lia Thomas, previously William Thomas, who swam on the women’s team at the University of Pennsylvania. Scanlan has <a href="https://rumble.com/v2sno54-the-university-wanted-us-to-be-quiet-lia-thomas-teammate-speaks-out-to-matt.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">expressed</a> that she was uncomfortable with Thomas being a member of the team due to his gender and felt her female teammates were overlooked in favor of Thomas’s greater strength and athleticism. 

Scanlan embarked on a lecture tour in partnership with Young America’s Foundation during the Spring 2024 semester to discuss her college swim experience at universities across the country. Her lecture was titled “Biological Men Should Not Compete in Women’s Sports.”

The faculty who wrote the letter state that Scanlan “is working with a well-funded, far-right ‘culture war’ machine that seeks to sow division, provoke backlash, generate publicity, and weaken public confidence in higher education.”

The writers further claim that Scanlan is “transphobic” because of her statements about Thomas. They say Scanlan has “refused to acknowledge the identity of the trans community:” 
“In videos of her campus visits available online, we have seen Scanlan disrespect, misgender, and mock trans people. Scanlan also has a history of (a) invoking the unsubstantiated idea that the presence of transgender women creates a threat of sexual violence to cisgender women, and (b) making direct reference to the physical appearance of Lia Thomas’s genitalia.”
Towards the end of their letter, the professors state their supposed commitment to free speech, no matter how disagreeable that speech may be to them. Yet, they are against the university inviting “speakers to campus whose demonstrated aim is to demean, devalue, and threaten the lives of our friends, family, and community members.”

<a href="https://www.fandm.edu/directory/abby-schrader.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Abby M. Schrader</a> is a Professor of History and the Department Chair of History at Franklin &amp; Marshall College. Her university profile states that she specializes in Russian literature. Additionally, she writes: 
“At F&amp;M, my teaching reflects my interests in Russian/Soviet and 18th- and 19th-century European history. I incorporate issues related to culture (including literary and visual culture), gender and sexuality, politics broadly conceived, and social trends in all of my courses.”  
Schrader was one of 125 Franklin &amp; Marshall faculty members who jointly signed a <a href="https://yaf.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Letter20of20Solidarity20Final.pdf.pdf">letter</a> to “denounce the [university’s] choice to invite transphobic speaker Paula Scanlan to our campus on March 27, in close proximity to Transgender Day of Visibility.”

Paula Scanlan was a teammate of “transgender” swimmer Lia Thomas, previously William Thomas, who swam on the women’s team at the University of Pennsylvania. Scanlan has <a href="https://rumble.com/v2sno54-the-university-wanted-us-to-be-quiet-lia-thomas-teammate-speaks-out-to-matt.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">expressed</a> that she was uncomfortable with Thomas being a member of the team due to his gender and felt her female teammates were overlooked in favor of Thomas’s greater strength and athleticism. 

Scanlan embarked on a lecture tour in partnership with Young America’s Foundation during the Spring 2024 semester to discuss her college swim experience at universities across the country. Her lecture was titled “Biological Men Should Not Compete in Women’s Sports.”

The faculty who wrote the letter state that Scanlan “is working with a well-funded, far-right ‘culture war’ machine that seeks to sow division, provoke backlash, generate publicity, and weaken public confidence in higher education.”

The writers further claim that Scanlan is “transphobic” because of her statements about Thomas. They say Scanlan has “refused to acknowledge the identity of the trans community:” 
“In videos of her campus visits available online, we have seen Scanlan disrespect, misgender, and mock trans people. Scanlan also has a history of (a) invoking the unsubstantiated idea that the presence of transgender women creates a threat of sexual violence to cisgender women, and (b) making direct reference to the physical appearance of Lia Thomas’s genitalia.”

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

<a href="https://divinity.duke.edu/faculty/wylin-d-wilson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Wylin Wilson</a> is an Assistant Professor of Theological Ethics at Duke Divinity School. According to her biography, Wilson studies the intersection of religion, gender, and what is known as “bioethics.” 
One of Wilson’s primary duties at Duke is <a href="https://divinity.duke.edu/node/16790" target="_blank" rel="noopener">training future ministers</a> in theology, bioethics, gender studies, and, “womanist ethics.” 
The term “womanist” refers to activists who prioritize the voices and lived experiences of black women over other races, particularly in conversations about race or gender.  
In her class, “Womanist Theological Ethics,” Wilson assigns texts from the following authors:
&#8211; Katie G. Cannon, who taught that Christian perspectives are <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/14/obituaries/katie-cannon-68-dies-lifted-black-womens-perspective-in-theology.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">formed by white men</a>. She excoriated white churches throughout her life, accusing them of <a href="https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0020964319876578" target="_blank" rel="noopener">upholding white supremacy</a>. 
&#8211; Emile M. Townes, who accuses the feminist movement of only validating the experiences of “<a href="https://ir.vanderbilt.edu/bitstream/handle/1803/8226/Townes-WomanistTheology.pdf?isAllowed=y&amp;sequence=1#:~:text=WOMANIST%20THEOLOGY%20is%20a%20form,are%20seen%20as%20theological%20problems" target="_blank" rel="noopener">white, middle-class women</a>.”
&#8211; Jacquelyn Grant, author of “White Women’s Jesus.” The book <a href="https://www.amazon.com/White-Womens-Christ-Black-Jesus/dp/1555403034" target="_blank" rel="noopener">critiques Christianity and Jesus Christ as “problematic”</a> because both are not relatable to “non-white and non-western women.” 
Students must also read, “White Too Long,” which depicts Christianity as a “<a href="https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/White-Too-Long/Robert-P-Jones/9781982122874" target="_blank" rel="noopener">cornerstone” of white supremacy</a>. The book alleges, “The more racist attitudes a person holds, the more likely he or she is to identify as a white Christian.”  
In a lecture at Duke, Wilson defines her work in “bioethics” as training healthcare professionals to embrace a “liberating praxis” and “live out certain virtues” when treating patients.

&nbsp;
She further emphasizes the necessity of “womanist bioethics” for doctors to correct the “default center” of “white, male, middle-class, secular, and privileged” healthcare  or mainstream bioethics.

&nbsp;
During a separate <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ku_TYS2cd2U&amp;ab_channel=Events%40Valpo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lecture at Valparaiso University</a>, she claims racism, slavery and discrimination are omnipresent in American society, as the past “is not dead.” Wilson further claims that a fact of American life remains that race is inseparable from religion. 
<div style="width: 640px;" class="wp-video">
<video class="wp-video-shortcode" id="video-0-1" width="640" height="360" preload="metadata" controls="controls"><source type="video/mp4" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/WylinWilson-_Race-and-Religion-are-inseparable._-.mp4?_=1" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/WylinWilson-_Race-and-Religion-are-inseparable._-.mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/WylinWilson-_Race-and-Religion-are-inseparable._-.mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
Racism, Wilson continues, is a driving factor of racial health disparities, as black Americans were historically mistreated by doctors. Wilson states this “communal trauma” makes a “rational” person like herself afraid to go to the doctor because so many have implicit bias.  
<div style="width: 640px;" class="wp-video"><video class="wp-video-shortcode" id="video-0-2" width="640" height="360" preload="metadata" controls="controls"><source type="video/mp4" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/My-Movie-1.mp4?_=2" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/My-Movie-1.mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/My-Movie-1.mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
Shortly thereafter, Wilson claims that her communal memory makes her fearful of being murdered by police, as she was taught at a young age that “cops are dangerous, they kill black people.”
<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/2023/03/Wylin-Wilson-_These-Cops-Kill-Black-People.mp4?_=3" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Wylin-Wilson-_These-Cops-Kill-Black-People.mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Wylin-Wilson-_These-Cops-Kill-Black-People.mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
Wilson further teaches a course titled “Transhumanism/XTheoL/Embodmnt.” <a href="https://divinity.duke.edu/courses/transhumanismxtheolembodmnt" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The description states</a> that “embodiment is incomplete, unsound, and limited by frailty, mortality, and illness,” and explores transhumanism in a Christian-centered response.

He also holds the positions of Professor of African and African American Studies, Economics, and is an Affiliate of the Duke Initiative of Science and Society, as well as an Affiliate for the Center for Child and Family Policy.
Identity Politics 
As <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/08/14/duke-university-economist-calls-for-12-trillion-in-slavery-reparations/">Breitbart</a> reports, Darity and his wife, Kirsten Mullen, co-authored a paper for the <a href="https://rooseveltinstitute.org/">Roosevelt Institute</a> in which they advocated for $12 Trillion in reparations for slavery. This amounts to roughly $800,000 to be paid per each African-American household in the country.

In the <a href="https://rooseveltinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/RI_Report_ResurrectingthePromiseof40Acres_202005.pdf">document</a>, titled, “Resurrecting the Promise of 40 acres: The Imperative of Reparations for Black Americans,” Darity describes the federal government as a “culpable party” that should pay reparations to black Americans for the nation’s history of slavery.

Darity <a href="https://rooseveltinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/RI_Report_ResurrectingthePromiseof40Acres_202005.pdf">states</a> that reparations are necessary so that white Americans do not continue to benefit from the profits of enslaved black Americans. In the same report, Darity <a href="https://rooseveltinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/RI_Report_ResurrectingthePromiseof40Acres_202005.pdf">alleges</a> that it is just as necessary for America to pay black Americans reparations as it was for Germany to pay reparations to survivors of the Holocaust.

Further in "Resurrecting the Promise", Darity <a href="https://rooseveltinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/RI_Report_ResurrectingthePromiseof40Acres_202005.pdf">calls</a> for a “formal reparations bill” to be passed by Congress, stating that reparations are needed to erase the black-white “wealth gulf” between black and white Americans.

In the conclusion of “Resurrecting the Promise,” Darity <a href="https://rooseveltinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/RI_Report_ResurrectingthePromiseof40Acres_202005.pdf">describes</a> reparations as the monetary centerpiece of all other forms of reparations and is required to eliminate the wealth gap, which is the “most glaring economic indicator” of racial injustice.

Following the publication of the paper, Darity announced in a <a href="https://www.dukechronicle.com/article/2020/12/why-studying-inequality-matters-minor-ineuality-studies-samuel-dubois-cook">letter</a> for The Chronicle that he will oversee the recently added “Minor in Inequality Studies” alongside history professor Malachi Hacohen, and adjunct instructor of education Adam Hollowell.

According to the Duke University website, this field of study is <a href="https://socialequity.duke.edu/inequality-studies-minor/">offered</a> for students interested in studying, “causes and consequences of inequality and pursue research around issues of social equity across a range of social science methods.”

Darity <a href="https://www.dukechronicle.com/article/2020/12/why-studying-inequality-matters-minor-ineuality-studies-samuel-dubois-cook">states</a> in the letter that inequality is interlaced in the “modern world” and reinforces “racism, sexism, colorism and other forms of discrimination.”

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1293 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-04-15T204952.321-e1618545028234-1024x348.png" alt="" width="580" height="197" />

Darity further <a href="https://www.dukechronicle.com/article/2020/12/why-studying-inequality-matters-minor-ineuality-studies-samuel-dubois-cook">states</a> in the letter that he hopes that students will “acquire a rigorous and analytical understanding of social inequality” to apply to their careers after they graduate.

The Professor Watchlist Team reached out to Darity for comment regarding:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">His paper for the Roosevelt Institute titled, Resurrecting the Promise of 40 Acres, in which Darity calls for $12 trillion in reparations for the descendants of slaves.</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Darity’s statement that the wealth gulf is the most glaring indicator of racial injustice.</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Darity’s comparison between paying reparations to the descendants of slaves to that of Germany paying reparations to Holocaust victims.</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Darity’s statement that inequality is inherent in our institutions and reinforces "racism, sexism, colorism, and other forms of discrimination."</li>
</ul>
Professor Darity responded with the following statement:

“Apart from your various spelling and grammatical errors, basically the first three statements you attribute to me are correct. I don't recall being directly quoted using the language in the fourth item. Also, in the second statement to be precise, my position is the "black-white wealth gulf is the most glaring economic indicator of racial injustice in the United States." I consider it a badge of honor to be considered for your McCarthyist Watchlist. Keep watching.” - Professor William Darity, Jr.

Although an ordained minister, Espinoza appears to deny the divinity of Jesus Christ.

In a separate interview, Espinoza further describes herself as a “public theologian” that seeks to <a href="https://vimeo.com/242163779?embedded=true&amp;source=vimeo_logo&amp;owner=70227614" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“de-emphasize” biblical text</a> to engage in “harm reduction” of communities marginalized by the Church. To accomplish this, Espinoza amplifies the voices of queer and transgender persons whom she alleges have been harmed by Scripture.

An organization led by Espinoza—the “<a href="https://activistheology.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Activist Theology Program</a>”—offers an “<a href="https://activistheology.com/unraveling-whiteness/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">unraveling whiteness</a>” course for “white bodies” who wish to dismantle their white supremacy. A portion of the class proceeds will be considered a “reparations tax” and paid towards a “BIPOC” organization. 

On her <a href="https://twitter.com/irobyn" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Twitter account</a>, Espinoza alleges that all white Americans benefit from white supremacy and even claims that “whiteness” isn’t a race.

Espinoza, who is half-Latino, writes that she must work to undo her white supremacy every day. 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Espinoza opposes what she describes as “supremacy culture” within the Christian Church. <a href="https://juicyecumenism.com/2021/08/11/robyn-henderson-espinoza/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">During a lecture at Boston University</a>, she defined this as a Church tethered to “race, economics, and the military war machine.” Espinoza further claims that a lack of “life-affirming systems” by Christians leads to a culture of “white supremacy and capitalism and violence.”  

“...we don’t know how to be responsible agents in the world, which is why we get evangelical theology where a White man can have a bad day and go kill a handful of people.” 

In a separate, self-promotional video, she further claims the “religion” of the United States is white nationalism. Espinoza describes her own beliefs as “activist theology,” or the unification of progressive movements with biblical theologies.

&nbsp;

Elsewhere, Espinoza defines activist theology as an offshoot of “liberation theology,” which is the<a href="https://www.acton.org/pub/commentary/2008/04/02/marxist-roots-black-liberation-theology" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> ideological godchild of Marxism</a>. The theory grew out of <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/10/12/5-major-reasons-liberation-theology-is-terrible-theology/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">left-leaning Churches and social movements in the 1960s.</a> Adherents promote the “liberation” of oppressed groups from economic or social oppression, namely that of systemic racism.  

During her speech at a “<a href="https://www.ourcollectivebecoming.com/p/becoming-as-praxis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Theology Beer Camp</a>,” Espinoza further defined activist theology as connecting “God-Talk” to the world’s contexts of “race, class, gender, sexuality, sex, and ability.” She calls on those in attendance to take a critical stance to fight “white supremacy and neo-fascism” in the Church. 

Espinoza deemphasizes God and religious texts in favor of progressive actions and self-affirmation throughout her work. “I don’t care what you believe,” she stated in the same speech, “I care about how you live your life. I care about your actions in the world.” 

In a separate article for her Substack, Espinoza declares that she has “no use for god” and <a href="https://www.ourcollectivebecoming.com/p/leaving-religion-for-a-better-world" target="_blank" rel="noopener">calls on her readers to define their meaning and build the world they want to see:</a> 

“...but what if Nietzsche was right that God is dead?....What if making meaning is the religion of today? What if that is how we build a new world?” 

The Professor Watchlist Team has reached out to Espinoza for comment. This profile will be updated accordingly.

<a href="https://scholars.duke.edu/person/tracie.canada">Tracie Canada</a> is an Assistant Professor of Cultural Anthropology at Duke University. According to her biography, she studies the “lived experiences of black college football players” and how “institutional systems and everyday spaces order, discipline, and enact violence against Black players.” 

In an article for Scientific American, Canada argues that black men <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20230106195655/https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/damar-hamlins-collapse-highlights-the-violence-black-men-experience-in-football/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">disproportionately suffer injuries in NFL</a> due to the league’s connection to the slave trade. 

The article was published just days after Buffalo Bills Safety Damar Hamlin <a href="https://sports.yahoo.com/bills-s-damar-hamlin-discharged-from-cincinnati-hospital-1-week-after-terrifying-collapse-201301750.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">suffered a cardiac arrest</a> during a January 2023 game. Canada writes that his injury represents the “normalized” violence black men face in the NFL. This violence is propounded, she continues, by coaches who purposefully “segregate” black men into dangerous positions on the team: 
“…through a process called racial stacking, coaches racially segregate athletes by playing position. These demographic discrepancies place Black athletes at a higher risk during play.”
While admitting she has not studied the injury rates white players suffer, Canada compares the NFL to a “plantation field.” She states that similar to slavery, black bodies are exploited to the point of injury for the entertainment of spectators. 

“On these playing fields, ones that sociologist Billy Hawkins would argue are never theoretically far from plantation fields, financial stakeholders value Black bodies for their productive potential and physical prowess. The league encourages and facilitates rigorous training and disciplining so players can execute seemingly impossible corporeal demands, all in the service of entertainment, money-making, and insatiable fandom.”

She concludes that despite consisting of 70% black men, anti-blackness in the NFL is “inescapable.” In a separate article, Canada writes that <a href="https://www.aaihs.org/anti-blackness-and-college-football/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">white supremacy is foundational</a> to the sport itself:
“...the college football system continues to rely on its foundational white supremacist ideals.”
During the Spring 2023 semester, Canada will be teaching a course titled, “Embodied Blackness.” A <a href="https://aaas.duke.edu/courses/embodied-blackness" target="_blank" rel="noopener">description of the course</a> states: 
“How is race embodied and how are bodies racialized? How do gender, sexuality, class, size, perceived beauty, and ability mutually influence embodiment? This course considers anthropological and historical studies of the body, with a critical focus on Blackness. We investigate how Black human bodies are othered, valued, dehumanized, and experienced, across time and space, with a particular focus on the United States.”

<a href="https://divinity.duke.edu/faculty/wylin-d-wilson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Wylin Wilson</a> is an Assistant Professor of Theological Ethics at Duke Divinity School. According to her biography, Wilson studies the intersection of religion, gender, and what is known as “bioethics.” 

One of Wilson’s primary duties at Duke is <a href="https://divinity.duke.edu/node/16790" target="_blank" rel="noopener">training future ministers</a> in theology, bioethics, gender studies, and, “womanist ethics.” 

The term “womanist” refers to activists who prioritize the voices and lived experiences of black women over other races, particularly in conversations about race or gender.  

In her class, “Womanist Theological Ethics,” Wilson assigns texts from the following authors:

- Katie G. Cannon, who taught that Christian perspectives are <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/14/obituaries/katie-cannon-68-dies-lifted-black-womens-perspective-in-theology.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">formed by white men</a>. She excoriated white churches throughout her life, accusing them of <a href="https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0020964319876578" target="_blank" rel="noopener">upholding white supremacy</a>. 

- Emile M. Townes, who accuses the feminist movement of only validating the experiences of “<a href="https://ir.vanderbilt.edu/bitstream/handle/1803/8226/Townes-WomanistTheology.pdf?isAllowed=y&amp;sequence=1#:~:text=WOMANIST%20THEOLOGY%20is%20a%20form,are%20seen%20as%20theological%20problems" target="_blank" rel="noopener">white, middle-class women</a>.”

- Jacquelyn Grant, author of “White Women’s Jesus.” The book <a href="https://www.amazon.com/White-Womens-Christ-Black-Jesus/dp/1555403034" target="_blank" rel="noopener">critiques Christianity and Jesus Christ as “problematic”</a> because both are not relatable to “non-white and non-western women.” 

Students must also read, “White Too Long,” which depicts Christianity as a “<a href="https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/White-Too-Long/Robert-P-Jones/9781982122874" target="_blank" rel="noopener">cornerstone” of white supremacy</a>. The book alleges, “The more racist attitudes a person holds, the more likely he or she is to identify as a white Christian.”  

In a lecture at Duke, Wilson defines her work in “bioethics” as training healthcare professionals to embrace a “liberating praxis” and “live out certain virtues” when treating patients.
<iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/F9B8MJi_CYI" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>

&nbsp;

She further emphasizes the necessity of “womanist bioethics” for doctors to correct the “default center” of “white, male, middle-class, secular, and privileged” healthcare  or mainstream bioethics.  

<iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/APg1SPcv4jM" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>

During a separate <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ku_TYS2cd2U&amp;ab_channel=Events%40Valpo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lecture at Valparaiso University</a>, she claims racism, slavery and discrimination are omnipresent in American society, as the past “is not dead.” Wilson further claims that a fact of American life remains that race is inseparable from religion. 

[video width="1280" height="720" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/WylinWilson-_Race-and-Religion-are-inseparable._-.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

Racism, Wilson continues, is a driving factor of racial health disparities, as black Americans were historically mistreated by doctors. Wilson states this “communal trauma” makes a “rational” person like herself afraid to go to the doctor because so many have implicit bias.  

[video width="1280" height="720" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/My-Movie-1.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

Shortly thereafter, Wilson claims that her communal memory makes her fearful of being murdered by police, as she was taught at a young age that “cops are dangerous, they kill black people.”

&nbsp;

Wilson further teaches a course titled “Transhumanism/XTheoL/Embodmnt.” <a href="https://divinity.duke.edu/courses/transhumanismxtheolembodmnt" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The description states</a> that “embodiment is incomplete, unsound, and limited by frailty, mortality, and illness,” and explores transhumanism in a Christian-centered response.

Shayne authored a 2020 article for Ms. Magazine titled, “<a href="https://msmagazine.com/2020/11/16/79-million-nos-mean-no-trump-rape-sexual-assault/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">80 Million No’s Mean No</a>.” In this piece, she states, “Trump’s fabricated narrative that this election was stolen from him is strikingly similar to a rapist’s upside down view that no means yes.”
She adds, “For me, the anxiety the prospect of his re-election caused took many physical forms, including nausea that felt like a razor in my stomach which made it impossible to eat.” According to Shayne, “my fourteen-year old son observed before the election was over, Trump needed to lose so I could purge him from my body: He was clearly a bacteria preventing me from eating.”
She also claims that Trump&#8217;s election to president in the first place is a “massive global metaphor for rape culture.” According to the professor, “I cried myself to sleep the Saturday before the election. I could not stop thinking about the prospect of having a man with a decades-long record of women and girls accusing him of sexual assault—including rape—re-elected president.” She believes that Trump will not be able to dodge accountability once he is out of office and hints at damning evidence of Trump&#8217;s record of sexual violence.
Shayne discusses the field of Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies (GWSS) in an article titled, “<a href="https://msmagazine.com/2020/02/24/i-cant-believe-im-still-making-the-case-for-gender-women-sexuality-studies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Trump Era Proves That Women’s Studies Matters</a>.” She writes, “GWSS scholars, faculty, students, librarians and staff are running full speed—creating a living archive which responds to the violent, Trump-fueled misogynist, white supremacist, xenophobic era in which we are now submerged.”

<a href="https://www.uwb.edu/education/faculty-staff/wayneau" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Wayne Au</a> is a Professor in the <a href="https://www.uwb.edu/education" target="_blank" rel="noopener">School of Educational Studies</a> at the <a href="https://www.uwb.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of Washington-Bothell</a>. His role exerts direct influence over future teachers and educators that graduate from the program. According to his University bio, Dr. Au’s courses and scholarship is centered around, “educational policy studies, critical education theory, and teaching for social justice.” His professional duties further showcase his commitment to insert social justice and left-wing topics into curriculums that are used in classrooms across the country.

Dr. Au is currently listed as an educator and board member for Rethinking Schools. The organization is dedicated to <a href="https://rethinkingschools.org/about-rethinking-schools/our-history/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">promoting “equity and racial justice” in classrooms and strengthening education through “social justice activism.”</a> It was founded in 1986 after a group of activists deemed educational curriculums “too conservative” and racially biased. The organization is a staunch opponent of school choice, and they openly boast of, “sounding the alarm on private/charter school vouchers.”

Rethinking Schools’ <a href="https://rethinkingschools.org/books/a-peoples-history-for-the-classroom/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">most well-known initiative is “The Zinn Education Project.</a>” Through free History lessons, classroom exercises, and publicly available teaching manuals, the project <a href="https://www.zinnedproject.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">seeks to provide an alternative, left-leaning approach to education for teachers to provide to students</a>.

Howard Zinn was a left-leaning historian and author who was <a href="https://www.city-journal.org/html/fbi-history-howard-zinn-10752.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">suspected of belonging to a number of Communist and Soviet-front groups during the 1950s</a>. His most recognized work, “<a href="https://www.zinnedproject.org/materials/peoples-history-of-the-united-states" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A People’s History of the United States</a>,” has sold millions of copies and is a frequently assigned reading in college classrooms. The book—which depicts America as a society founded on slavery and genocide and the aftermath of both reverberating to the present day—<a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/02/08/debunking-left-wing-historian-howard-zinn-is-like-shooting-fish-in-a-barrel/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">has been lambasted for its slanted and inaccurate portrayal of American society</a>.

The Howard Zinn Project grounds its activist approach to history and teaching on Howard Zinn’s work, specifically “A People’s History of the United States.” The website for the project <a href="https://www.zinnedproject.org/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">boasts a network of 130,000 teachers and a growth of 10,000 new teachers</a> per year.

Dr. Au creates, writes, and helps distribute materials and lesson plans to teachers on behalf of the Zinn Education Project. Many of these resources direct teachers to introduce far-left topics and racially-laden curriculum into the classroom. Several documents produced by Dr. Au include lesson plans that <a href="https://www.zinnedproject.org/materials/black-panthers-ten-point-program/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">extol the Marxist Black Panther Party</a>, manuals on educating students about “<a href="https://www.zinnedproject.org/materials/teachers-vs-climate-change-teachers-work-for-climate-justice-portland" target="_blank" rel="noopener">climate justice,”</a> and teaching “<a href="https://www.zinnedproject.org/materials/rethinking-multicultural-education/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">racial and cultural justice</a>.”

A paper co-edited by Dr. Au is titled, “<a href="https://www.zinnedproject.org/materials/teaching-black-lives/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Teaching for Black Lives</a>.” The document is over 300 pages long and consists of lesson plans on the Black Lives Matter movement, Black Liberation, and “teaching blackness.” According to a summary listed on the official site, the guide is to be used for educators to make their classrooms sites of “resistance” to “white supremacy and anti-blackness.”

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–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, “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. Au is the author of a separate book titled, “<a href="https://www.haymarketbooks.org/books/1153-a-marxist-education" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A Marxist Education.</a>” In it, he states his intention to <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article?id=10969" target="_blank" rel="noopener">assist teachers in resisting “capitalism” and the “patriarchy” in their respective classrooms</a>.

In an interview for The Progressive about the book, Dr. Au <a href="https://progressive.org/latest/deeper-critical-consciousness-in-education-Wayne-Au/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">urges teachers to be “anti-racist” and urges them to use their positions to fight “settler colonialism.</a>”

<a href="https://lsa.umich.edu/ncid/people/diversity-scholars-directory/apryl-williams.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Apryl Williams</a> is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Communication &amp; Media and the Digital Studies Institute at the University of Michigan. According to her university profile, her research focuses on “critical algorithm studies and cultural studies of race, gender, popular culture and identity in digital spaces.”
Professor Williams is outspoken about her disdain for white women. In an article for The Guardian titled <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/dec/27/karen-race-white-women-black-americans-racism" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“The year of Karen: how a meme changed the way Americans talked about racism,”</a> she wrote: “We as a culture have adopted this stance that white women are more virtuous and not complicit in upholding racism in particular.” She then provides guidelines for how white women can “avoid being a Karen:”
-”Recognize the privilege and history of being a white woman in this society”
-”Avoid calling the police on people of color unless someone is in imminent danger of harm”
-”Understand that it’s just not always about you, period. People are not out to get you for the most part, people are not trying to hurt you or harm your property or make you uncomfortable. You’re not that special, Karen. You’re not that special.” 
Williams authored a paper titled, <a href="https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/2056305120981047" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Black Memes Matter: #LivingWhileBlack With Becky and Karen.”</a> She writes, “The summer of 2020 highlighted the inability to live while Black in the United States.” She adds:
“In this article, I argue that White women engage an extralegal type of patrolling, policing, and surveillance to regulate Black bodies in public spaces and uphold White supremacist notions of law and order.” 
She further argues that white women use “polite and empty apologies … to evade racial guilt and the stigma associated with open racism.”
Williams was also featured in an article for Mic titled <a href="https://www.mic.com/life/are-your-dating-preferences-racist-82343271" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Are your dating preferences racist?”</a> She argues “a lot of our social behaviors are deeply rooted in ideologies about race, even if it’s very implicitly, even if you’re not thinking about it.”

<a href="https://fordschool.umich.edu/faculty/betsey-stevenson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Betsey Stevenson</a> is a Professor of Public Policy and a Professor of Economics at the University of Michigan. Her list of courses taught includes “Microeconomics for Public Policy” and “Economics of the Public Sector.” She also served as Chief Economist of the United States Department of Labor from 2010 to 2011.

In 2018, Stevenson partnered with <a href="https://jdp.princeton.edu/people/hanna-zlotnick" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hannah Zlotnick</a> to research gender ratios in economic textbooks. The university <a href="https://fordschool.umich.edu/news/2018/econ-textbook-study-stevenson-zlotnick-highlights-gender-bias-against-women" target="_blank" rel="noopener">published an article</a> — titled “Econ textbook study by Stevenson, Zlotnick highlights gender bias against women” — that said: 

“The work, which has already garnered significant media attention, exposes an underrepresentation of women in American economics textbooks. Stevenson contends that remedying this issue could be key in closing the field’s stubborn gender gap … Excluding economists from their analysts, Steven and Zlotnick found that 70 percent of people referenced were men.”

The publication <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tIVrw2di5wqiMjoZTp0VDpLrBgwqQWja/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">linked to a textbook presentation</a> authored by Stevenson and Zlotnick. A few examples are found below.

<a href="https://lsa.umich.edu/history/people/faculty/jrcole.html">Dr. Juan Cole</a> is a Professor of History at the University of Michigan. He believes right-wing Jews and an “Islamophobic network” were “a key influence” to the shooting that killed nine people at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, S.C. He has also argued that recognizing Israel as a state is racist.

<a href="https://lsa.umich.edu/stats/people/faculty/fink.html">Nadiya Fink</a> is a statistics lecturer at University of Michigan-Ann Arbor. After a conservative activist satirically changed his preferred pronoun to "His Majesty", Fink threatened to punish any student who mocked the preferred pronoun system.

<a href="https://lsa.umich.edu/comm/people/regular-faculty/sdoug.html">Dr. Susan Douglas</a>, a professor at University of Michigan, publicized her hate for Republicans in an article from In These Times. She says, “I hate Republicans. I can’t stand the thought of having to spend the next two years watching Mitch McConnell, John Boehner, Ted Cruz, Darrell Issa or any of the legions of other blowhards denying climate change, thwarting immigration reform or championing fetal ‘personhood.’”

Assistant Professor of Education, <a href="https://marsal.umich.edu/directory/faculty-staff/charles-hf-davis-iii" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Charles H.F. Davis III</a>, once appeared on the Jesse Lee Peterson podcast to discuss race relations in America and the pro-Palestinian movement that was taking place on college campuses. 

In the following discussion from 2018, the host pointed out how Davis included several hashtags (#) on his <a href="http://hfdavis.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">website</a>, such as #FreePalestine and #FreethePeople. When asked why he did not include #FreetheJews on that list, Davis replied: 
“Well, I guess we could talk about in a particular context, and I think we have to think about what Jews we’re talking about. I’ve chosen to take those particular political stances based on the historical record, based on the social and political context that we find ourselves in today … 
“Just to be clear I’m very much opposed to anti-semitism in any particular form or fashion, but I wouldn’t want to conflate any of the [hashtags] that you just mentioned to suggest otherwise.”

Davis’ <a href="http://hfdavis.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">website</a> —which now includes #BlackLivesMatter and #PoliceFreeCampus — contains several short essays and articles calling for an end to campus policing.

Davis spreads anti-American and anti-white ideologies through his course “Race, Racism and Anti-Blackness,” in which he says, “[The] course is a deep dive into understanding how systemic racism and structural racism function in society and in higher education contexts.”

For years, Davis’ <a href="https://www.instagram.com/hfdavis/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">social media</a> feeds have been full of racial ideology as well as anti-Jewish and anti-police rhetoric. Using the <a href="https://twitter.com/hfdavis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Twitter handle</a> “Palestine Will Be Free,” he also posted support for the pro-Palestinian campus protests that started in April 2024.

When asked if he wanted to “eliminate whiteness,” Davis said, “I want to destroy whiteness to be more specific.” When asked to define whiteness, he declared:
“Whiteness is an ideological construct … it’s a set of behaviors, beliefs, and practices that not only normalize the white way of seeing the world but white way of doing society. That structure has proven to be violent towards people of color … 
“So, I think that needs to be destroyed in order for the liberation of the people of color from white supremacy to take place. Now, to be sure, that is not to conflate whiteness with white people — although all white people do benefit from whiteness.”

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.

<a href="https://lsa.umich.edu/ac/people/faculty/jchl.html">John Cheney-Lippold</a> is an Associate Professor at the University of Michigan whose work focuses on Internet Studies, Cultural Studies, and Algorithm Studies.

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://lsa.umich.edu/ncid/people/diversity-scholars-directory/apryl-williams.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Apryl Williams</a> is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Communication &amp; Media and the Digital Studies Institute at the University of Michigan. According to her university profile, her research focuses on “critical algorithm studies and cultural studies of race, gender, popular culture and identity in digital spaces.”

Professor Williams is outspoken about her disdain for white women. In an article for The Guardian titled <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/dec/27/karen-race-white-women-black-americans-racism" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“The year of Karen: how a meme changed the way Americans talked about racism,”</a> she wrote: “We as a culture have adopted this stance that white women are more virtuous and not complicit in upholding racism in particular.” She then provides guidelines for how white women can “avoid being a Karen:”
-”Recognize the privilege and history of being a white woman in this society”
-”Avoid calling the police on people of color unless someone is in imminent danger of harm”
-”Understand that it’s just not always about you, period. People are not out to get you for the most part, people are not trying to hurt you or harm your property or make you uncomfortable. You’re not that special, Karen. You’re not that special.” 
Williams authored a paper titled, <a href="https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/2056305120981047" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Black Memes Matter: #LivingWhileBlack With Becky and Karen.”</a> She writes, “The summer of 2020 highlighted the inability to live while Black in the United States.” She adds:
“In this article, I argue that White women engage an extralegal type of patrolling, policing, and surveillance to regulate Black bodies in public spaces and uphold White supremacist notions of law and order.” 
She further argues that white women use “polite and empty apologies … to evade racial guilt and the stigma associated with open racism.”

Williams was also featured in an article for Mic titled <a href="https://www.mic.com/life/are-your-dating-preferences-racist-82343271" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Are your dating preferences racist?”</a> She argues “a lot of our social behaviors are deeply rooted in ideologies about race, even if it’s very implicitly, even if you’re not thinking about it.”
