<a href="https://www.temple.edu/about/faculty-staff/sara-goldrick-rab-tug64840">Dr. Sara Goldrick-Rab</a>, a Professor of Policy, Organizational, and Leadership Studies at Temple University, took to Twitter to compare Republican governor Scott Walker to Hitler.

According to Campus Reform, the tweets followed a contentious battle over budgets and policy changes for the University of Wisconsin system.

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

Bill Mullen

<a href="https://cla.purdue.edu/directory/profiles/bill-mullen.html">Bill Mullen</a> is a professor of English and American Studies at Purdue University. As stated in his university profile, he specializes in “American Literature and Studies, African American Studies, Cultural Studies, Working Class Studies, Critical Race Theory, and Marxist Theory.” Mullen also serves as a member of the organizing collective for the US Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel and is the co-founder of a national, campus-based ANTIFA organization. 
As part of the <a href="http://campusantifascistnetwork.com/">Campus Antifascist Network </a>(CAN), an ANTIFA-aligned group for university academics, Mullen <a href="https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2017/08/17/campus-group-proposing-broad-countermovement-against-white-nationalism-and-racism">described</a> his role as &#8220;to drive racists off campuses and to protect the most vulnerable from fascist attack.”
This sentiment is reflected in the <a href="http://campusantifascistnetwork.com/resources/">resources</a> listed on the CAN website. Not only does CAN declare that free-speech does not extend to “far-right” groups, it actively encourages students and faculty to confront groups on campus that they have labeled far-right, and lobbies universities to ban them. 
Mullen certainly believes that Turning Point USA should be banned from campus &#8211; he has previously <a href="https://mondoweiss.net/2017/07/where-zionism-right/">described</a> TPUSA as an “alt-right” group. 
As Faculty Advisor for Purdue&#8217;s Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) and part of the organizing collective for the Campaign for Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel, Bill spends much of his time demonizing Israel as an Apartheid State and <a href="https://electronicintifada.net/content/educators-cant-stay-silent-about-israeli-apartheid/10928">advocates</a> for the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions Movement (BDS). 
Mullen and SJP at Purdue both have a <a href="https://canarymission.org/professor/Bill_Mullen">history</a> of defending terrorists, with the latter <a href="https://purduesjp.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/myths_formated.pdf">writing</a> in 2009 that it is a &#8220;myth&#8221; that Hamas is a terrorist organization.
Mullen has also lauded terrorists, as Ghassan Kanafi is featured prominently on his <a href="https://www.billvmullen.com/welcome">personal blog</a>. <a href="https://www.camera.org/article/presbyterian-peacemakers-omit-relevant-facts-about-ghassan-kanafani/">Kanafi</a> is a Marxist-Lennist Terrorist known for his role in the <a href="https://www.investigativeproject.org/1550/justice-for-the-victims-of-the-lod-airport-attack">Lod Airport Massacre</a> in Israel that tragically killed 26 innocent civilians and injured an additional 80. His blog itself is titled, &#8220;From the River to the Sea,&#8221; a popular phrase used by those who want to wipe Israel off the map from the Jordan River to the Medditeranian Sea.
Mullen has also used his Facebook to call for the release of Khader Adnan, who is a convicted terrorist with Palestian Islamic Jihad.

Purdue University

<a href="https://polytechnic.purdue.edu/profile/aleejr" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mr. Alvin Lee</a> is an Employee Relations Specialist from <a href="https://www.purdue.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Purdue University</a>. In 2016, Mr. Lee hosted a presentation in a business relationship class that labeled phrases such as, “American is a melting pot,” as “microaggressions.”

Harvard Professor Chester M. Pierce—who first coined the phrase—<a href="https://www.vox.com/2015/2/16/8031073/what-are-microaggressions" target="_blank" rel="noopener">defines microaggressions as literal, “racial assaults” on minorities by white people</a>.

“These [racial] assaults to black dignity and black hope are incessant and cumulative. Any single one may be gross. In fact, the major vehicle for racism in this country is offenses done to blacks by whites in this sort of gratuitous neverending way. These offenses are microaggressions.“ - Chester M Pierce

Universities and public officials will often censor words or phrases they consider fit this definition. In 2018, the University of California <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2018/03/17/calling-america-land-opportunity-microaggression-says-university-california/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">labeled the phrase, “America is the land of opportunity,” as a microaggression.</a> In 2021, administrators at Brandeis University <a href="https://www.brandeis.edu/parc/accountability/oppressivelanguagelist_identitybased.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">listed phrases like, “policeman” and, “you guys,” under a University-sponsored “Oppressive Language List</a>.”

Due to a California law passed in 2017, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/california-law-allows-prison-using-wrong-gender-ryan-saavedra" target="_blank" rel="noopener">failure to refer to a person’s preferred gender pronouns is now a jailable offense</a>. Those convicted may be sentenced for up to a year in jail.

Mr. Lee likewise <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/saying-america-melting-pot-microaggression-purdue-class-teaches/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">urges students to curtail speech he considers to be microaggressions. </a>Several examples included the following:

- Asking a student, “Where are you from?”

- “You are so articulate.”

- “America is a melting pot”

- “There is only one race, the human race”

- “When I look at you, I don’t see color”

- “I’m not racist, I have several black friends”

- “I believe that the most qualified person should get the job.”

- “Everyone can succeed in this society if they work hard enough.”

- Using the pronoun, “he” to refer to all people.

During the same lecture, Mr. Lee claimed “hundreds” of active hate groups are operating in the United States today. He was referencing data compiled by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), a self-ordained civil rights <a href="https://www.splcenter.org/what-we-do" target="_blank" rel="noopener">group</a> whose objective is purportedly the dismantlement of white supremacy.

Despite its mission statement, the organization effectively operates as a left-wing think tank. As City Journal notes, the SPLC operated “Hatewatch” exists to publish<a href="https://www.city-journal.org/html/demagogic-bully-15370.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> partisan attacks on groups with right-of-center positions</a>. Conservative groups are labeled as extremists, while destructive, Left-wing organizations like Antifa are virtually ignored.

Thanks to its prolific fundraising operations, the organization has successfully monetized its left-wing smear campaigns. The <a href="https://freebeacon.com/issues/southern-poverty-surpasses-half-billion-in-assets-121-million-now-offshore/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SPLC’s assets exceed half a billion dollars</a> with $121 million residing in offshore bank accounts alone.

Mr. Lee’s goals, as written in his presentation, include, “teaching students to understand and accept people’s similarities and differences and learn to treat everyone with dignity and respect.” Following the presentation, The College Fix also reports that Mr. Lee assigned students an exercise titled “Diversity, Inclusion, and Social Class Bingo,” which aimed to highlight their differences.

Jamie Newman was an employee in the music department at Purdue. He left the university after he said he supported raping pro-life people because the oppose abortion in cases of rape.

<a href="https://www.prescott.edu/faculty-staff-directory/craig-willse">Craig Willse</a> is an associate faculty member of Social Environmental Arts Practice and Social Justice and Community Organizing at Prescott College in Arizona. Craig led faculty and administrators at George Mason University in protesting the renaming of its law school after Antonin Scalia and regularly engages in Anti-Israel protests.
&nbsp;
Censorship 
In 2016, following an <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2016/04/05/politics/george-mason-university-antonin-scalia-law-school-name-change">announcement</a> from George Mason University that they would be renaming their law school after the recently deceased Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, Willse, who <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/george-mason-university-professors-oppose-naming-law-school-after-antonin-n552501">according</a> to NBC, was then a cultural studies professor at  George Mason, led the protests by George Mason faculty and administration to oppose the decision. <a href="https://www.britannica.com/biography/Antonin-Scalia">Scalia </a>had served on the Supreme Court 30 years and was known for his  “originalism,” or interpretation of the United States Constitution as Scalia believes our founding fathers had intended.
As part of the protest, Willse <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/george-mason-university-professors-oppose-naming-law-school-after-antonin-n552501">authors</a> a letter protesting the university’s decision. The <a href="https://nojusticeforgmu.wordpress.com/">letter</a>, which appears on the site, “No Justice for GMU,” details Willse’s opposition to Scalia. He “denounces&#8221; the renaming of the law school after Scalia and describes the university’s decision as an “affront” to those targeted by Scalia’s, “racism, sexism, and homophobia.” Willie specifically <a href="https://nojusticeforgmu.wordpress.com/who-was-scalia/">accuses</a> Scalia’s “constitutional originalism” of being “widely criticized” by historians and scholars, citing left-leaning publications such as Mother Jones, ThinkProgress, and The Huffington Post in doing so.
The same letter accuses Scalia of causing “direct harms” to GMU students, including “students of color, women, and LGBT students.”

The protest was ultimately unsuccessful and the law school was officially <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/grade-point/wp/2016/05/17/its-official-george-masons-law-school-is-named-in-honor-of-antonin-scalia/">renamed</a> the Antonin Scalia Law School later that year.
&nbsp;
Antisemitic 
Willse accuses Israel of being responsible for police brutality and racist profiling in the United States. In an article for the site, “Deadly Exchange” Willse <a href="https://deadlyexchange.org/building-safety-through-solidarity-an-interview-with-dean-spade-craig-willse/">states</a> that policing is a project of colonial and racial control.
<img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-1165 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-03-11T113022.615-e1615487577825-1024x432.png" alt="" width="580" height="245" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-03-11T113022.615-e1615487577825-1024x432.png 1024w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-03-11T113022.615-e1615487577825-300x127.png 300w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-03-11T113022.615-e1615487577825-768x324.png 768w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-03-11T113022.615-e1615487577825-1200x506.png 1200w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-03-11T113022.615-e1615487577825.png 1299w" sizes="(max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px" />
<a href="https://deadlyexchange.org/">Deadly Exchange</a> is a campaign by the anti-Israel group, <a href="https://jewishvoiceforpeace.org/">Jewish Voice for Peace</a>. The campaign intends to end any collaboration between US and Israeli police forces. According to the official site for “Deadly Exchange,” security cooperation with Israel promotes “racial profiling, massive spying and surveillance, deportation and detention, and attacks on human rights defenders.”
In the same <a href="https://deadlyexchange.org/building-safety-through-solidarity-an-interview-with-dean-spade-craig-willse/">article</a>, Willse compares policing with slave patrols in the Jim Crow-era and therefore says policing “fundamentally anti-black.” He states that police cannot be reformed, and his long-term goal is to abolish police and prisons.
As <a href="https://canarymission.org/professor/Craig_Willse">documented</a> by the site, <a href="https://canarymission.org/">Canary Mission</a>, Willse holds other anti-Israel stances and takes part in protests accusing Israel of being an “apartheid state.” In an article for the site Truthout, Willse <a href="https://truthout.org/articles/us-and-israeli-police-are-sharing-violent-and-repressive-tactics/">describes</a> Israel and the US “as the world&#8217;s most racist, repressive and violent police and military forces.”
In the video below, Willse can be seen <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1e6jULCCh3Y&amp;ab_channel=AriWohlfeiler">disrupting</a> a pro-Israel parade in New York. As <a href="https://forward.com/scribe/373862/jvp-targeted-queer-jewish-youth-at-israel-parade/">reported</a> by The Forward, members of the New York Police Department stated that Willse and 4 others “targeted”  the parade on behalf of Jewish Voice for Peace and were arrested for disorderly conduct.

The <a href="https://nojusticeforgmu.wordpress.com/">letter</a>, which appears on the site, “No Justice for GMU,” details Willse’s opposition to Scalia. He “denounces'' the renaming of the law school after Scalia and describes the university’s decision as an “affront” to those targeted by Scalia’s, “racism, sexism, and homophobia.” Willie specifically <a href="https://nojusticeforgmu.wordpress.com/who-was-scalia/">accuses</a> Scalia’s “constitutional originalism” of being “widely criticized” by historians and scholars, citing left-leaning publications such as Mother Jones, ThinkProgress, and The Huffington Post in doing so.

The same letter accuses Scalia of causing “direct harms” to GMU students, including “students of color, women, and LGBT students.”

The protest was ultimately unsuccessful and the law school was officially <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/grade-point/wp/2016/05/17/its-official-george-masons-law-school-is-named-in-honor-of-antonin-scalia/">renamed</a> the Antonin Scalia Law School later that year.

Willse accuses Israel of being responsible for police brutality and racist profiling in the United States. In an article for the site, “Deadly Exchange” Willse <a href="https://deadlyexchange.org/building-safety-through-solidarity-an-interview-with-dean-spade-craig-willse/">states</a> that policing is a project of colonial and racial control.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1165 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-03-11T113022.615-e1615487577825-1024x432.png" alt="" width="580" height="245" />

<a href="https://deadlyexchange.org/">Deadly Exchange</a> is a campaign by the anti-Israel group, <a href="https://jewishvoiceforpeace.org/">Jewish Voice for Peace</a>. The campaign intends to end any collaboration between US and Israeli police forces. According to the official site for “Deadly Exchange,” security cooperation with Israel promotes “racial profiling, massive spying and surveillance, deportation and detention, and attacks on human rights defenders.”

In the same <a href="https://deadlyexchange.org/building-safety-through-solidarity-an-interview-with-dean-spade-craig-willse/">article</a>, Willse compares policing with slave patrols in the Jim Crow-era and therefore says policing “fundamentally anti-black.” He states that police cannot be reformed, and his long-term goal is to abolish police and prisons.

As <a href="https://canarymission.org/professor/Craig_Willse">documented</a> by the site, <a href="https://canarymission.org/">Canary Mission</a>, Willse holds other anti-Israel stances and takes part in protests accusing Israel of being an “apartheid state.” In an article for the site Truthout, Willse <a href="https://truthout.org/articles/us-and-israeli-police-are-sharing-violent-and-repressive-tactics/">describes</a> Israel and the US “as the world's most racist, repressive and violent police and military forces.”

In the video below, Willse can be seen <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1e6jULCCh3Y&amp;ab_channel=AriWohlfeiler">disrupting</a> a pro-Israel parade in New York. As <a href="https://forward.com/scribe/373862/jvp-targeted-queer-jewish-youth-at-israel-parade/">reported</a> by The Forward, members of the New York Police Department stated that Willse and 4 others “targeted”  the parade on behalf of Jewish Voice for Peace and were arrested for disorderly conduct.

<a href="https://www.prescott.edu/social-and-environmental-arts-practice-mfa">Patrisse Cullors</a> is the faculty director of Prescott College's MFA degree (Social and Environmental Arts Practice) in Prescott, Arizona. A seasoned organizer, Cullors is one of the co-founders of the <a href="https://blacklivesmatter.com/">Black Lives Matter</a> (BLM) movement and <a href="https://nypost.com/2021/05/27/black-lives-matter-co-founder-patrisse-cullors-resigns-amid-controversy/">served as executive director until resigning in 2021</a>. Along with its parent organization, the <a href="https://m4bl.org/">Movement for Black Lives</a>, the BLM is dedicated to the abolition of police, direct action to combat what Patrisse deems as systematic racism, and has maintained an active presence in the nationwide riots that followed the death of George Floyd.

BLM was <a href="https://blacklivesmatter.com/six-years-strong/">founded following the death</a> of Treyvon Martin and the trial of George Zimmerman for his murder. After a jury acquitted Zimmerman of the murder in 2013, Cullors (who refers to Zimmerman as “white-passing” even though he is Hispanic), joined with <a href="https://aliciagarza.com/">Alicia Garza</a> and <a href="https://www.opaltometi.org/">Opal Tometi</a> to form an organization, <a href="https://blacklivesmatter.com/about/">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">riots in Ferguson, Missouri</a> in reaction to the acquittal of police officer Darren Wilson in the shooting of <a href="https://www.latimes.com/nation/nationnow/la-nn-na-watch-video-michael-brown-robbery-20140815-story.html">robbery-suspect</a> 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">BLM was instrumental in spreading the lie</a> that Brown was shot at point-blank range with his hands raised.

Although purporting to be a civil-rights organization dedicated to fighting police brutality and white supremacy around the world, Cullors, BLM, and the Movement for Black Lives advocate for positions championed by radical leftists. BLM advocates for the abolishment of prisons, defunding the police, dismantling the nuclear family, cutting off aid to Israel (which they label a racist state), are inspired by the Black Panther Party and other prominent Marxists, and encourages rioting and looting, all the while receiving millions of dollars through organizations connected to the Democratic party.

BLM and its affiliates have been inspired by a litany of figures from the radical Left. Cullors herself has boasted of being <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/06/24/black-lives-matter-founder-mentored-by-ex-domestic-terrorist-who-worked-with-bill-ayers/">mentored by Communist Eric Mann</a> of the Labor/Community Strategy Center. Mann was also a member of Students for a Democratic Society, which was founded by domestic terrorist, <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/williamayers">Bill Ayers</a>. In an interview from 2015, Cullors herself stated that she and her co-founders are “<a href="https://youtu.be/Zp-RswgpjD8?t=337">trained Marxists</a>.”

 “...we actually do have an ideological frame. Myself and Alicia, in particular, are trained organizers. We are trained Marxists.”

On the podcast <a href="https://youtu.be/0tOm0rOgGUE?t=1726">The People’s Party</a> with antisemitic rapper <a href="https://www.israellycool.com/2016/03/27/rapper-talib-kweli-greene-goes-on-an-antisemitic-rampage-on-twitter/">Talib Kweli</a>,  Cullors described how the <a href="https://www.marxists.org/history/usa/workers/black-panthers/1966/10/15.htm">Black Panther Party’s 10-Point Program</a> inspired BLM’s guiding principles. <a href="http://web.stanford.edu/~ccarson/articles/am_left.htm">The Panthers</a> were a Marxist-Leninist organization, co-led by Huey Newton, whose involvement is <a href="https://www.salon.com/1999/12/13/betty/">suspected in multiple murders</a> allegedly committed by the Panthers. Cullors has also spoken of her affinity for and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiAUYJXv2Yo&amp;ab_channel=NewYorkTimesEvents">appeared at events </a>with <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/2019/01/opposing-honors-for-angela-davis-isnt-racist/">Angela Davis</a> (who wrote the forward to Cullor’s book, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/When-They-Call-You-Terrorist/dp/1250171083">When They Call You a Terrorist)</a>. Davis, who frequently toured and vocally defended the Soviet Union, is an open Marxist and former Communist Party candidate for President, whose firearms were used in a courtroom shoot-out in 1970 that left 4 dead.

Cullors and the Movement for Black Lives have routinely condemned the nation of Israel. In their policy platform, the Movement for Black Lives <a href="https://m4bl.org/policy-platforms/invest-divest/">describes Israel as a genocidal, apartheid state</a>;

“....approximately 3 billion dollars in US aid is allocated to Israel, a state that practices systematic discrimination and has maintained a military occupation of Palestine for decades.”

“The US justifies and advances its global war on terror via its alliance with Israel and is complicit in the genocide taking place against the Palestinian People...it makes US citizens complicit in the abuses committed by the Israeli government. Israel is an apartheid state with over 50 laws on the books that sanction discrimination against the Palestinian people.” 

“Every day, Palestinians are forced to walk through military checkpoints along the US-funded apartheid wall.”  

Cullors has made her anti-Israel stances a focal point in her activism. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AZXNypWKbE&amp;t=1050s&amp;ab_channel=AlJazeeraEnglish=38m28s">She has bragged</a> about how one of BLM’s first delegations was sent to Israel, in which Cullors used the trip to <a href="https://www.ebony.com/news/dream-defenders-black-lives-matter-ferguson-reps-take-historic-trip-to-palestine/">degenerate Israel as an apartheid state</a>. She claimed,

“This is an apartheid state. We can’t deny that and if we do deny it we are part of the Zionist violence.”

<a href="https://youtu.be/mQ8z-gGMSIY?t=4183">Speaking at the US Campaign for Palestinian rights</a>, she accused Israeli’s of “Jewish supremacism” and oppressing “black folks in Palestine.”

“Zionists have used anti-Semitic rhetoric to uphold Jewish supremacism and the illegal state of Israel.” 

<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/mQ8z-gGMSIY?start=4172&amp;end=4192" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>

One of the most striking aspects of BLM’s platform is the call to <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/black-lives-matter-disrupt-nuclear-family-website">abolish the nuclear family</a>.

Their official website claims, “We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and “villages” that collectively care for one another, especially our children, to the degree that mothers, parents, and children are comfortable.” 

Core to BLM’s actions is the central belief that America is an inherently racist nation. On a number of occasions, Cullors has described how black Americans are at a fundamental disadvantage and are actively discriminated against in America. She has also indicated that in order to fight racism, black Americans have to separate themselves from other whites.

Rather than citing specific acts of racism, Cullors states that “all white Americans have inherent white supremacy” <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OE0a87wHbA&amp;ab_channel=HOT97=23m58s">during a radio interview in New York</a>. She claimed that “...if you’re white...you have white supremacy in you, you have racism in you, that’s just what happens with whiteness”

<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/9OE0a87wHbA?start=1400&amp;end=1451" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>

&nbsp;

In a separate interview, Cullors suggested that black people have to re-assert their “blackness” in order to <a href="https://youtu.be/Zp-RswgpjD8?t=546">resist becoming white</a>.

“The US is very clever at turning other groups white, and making them white, and we’ve seen that throughout history when groups were not white and when the white power structure was threatened, they figured out a way to make groups white. And I think as we move forward we have to figure out political alignments that hold blackness as a broader framework than just sort of the skin we are in, but as a political statement.” 

To Cullors, revered American institutions like law enforcement are the pillars of systematic racism. She, along with BLM, regularly vilify police as racists who disproportionately target African-Americans. Following the death of George Floyd, BLM released an official statement <a href="https://blacklivesmatter.com/defundthepolice/">alleging that police don’t protect black communities</a>. The statement read:

“George Floyd’s death was a breaking point - an all too familiar reminder that for Black people, law enforcement doesn’t protect or save lives. They often threaten and take them.”   

BLM then encouraged the reader to sign a petition below the statement that called for a defunding of police departments nation-wide:

“We call for an end to the systematic racism that allows this culture of corruption to go unchecked and our lives to be taken. We call for a national defunding of police. ” 

In calling for the defunding of police, the <a href="https://m4bl.org/policy-platforms/end-the-war-on-black-communities/">policy platform</a> for the Movement for Black Lives actually equates funding law enforcement with an increase of rapes committed in black communities.

“The investment in punishment over prevention has not made us any safer. On the contrary, it has contributed to skyrocketing levels of police killings, rapes, and sexual assaults, physical violence, harassment, and criminalization in Black communities.” 

The Movement for Black Lives has listed as a resource the <a href="https://www.thejerichomovement.com/home">National Jericho Movement</a>, under their <a href="https://m4bl.org/policy-platforms/political-power/">End Criminalization of Political Activity Policy Brief</a>. The National Jericho Movement is an organization that <a href="https://www.thejerichomovement.com/about">advocates for the release</a> of convicted cop killers, including <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/dec/22/the-never-ending-saga-of-cop-killer-mumia-abu-jama/">Mumia Abu-Jamal</a>, <a href="http://www.danielpipes.org/97/the-curious-case-of-jamil-al-amin">Jamil Abdullah Al-Amin</a>, and <a href="https://newyork.cbslocal.com/2020/09/23/anthony-bottom-convicted-of-killing-2-nypd-officers-in-1971-ambush-granted-parole/">Anthony Bottom</a>.

Cullors herself has repeatedly called for abolishing the police. In an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYa1WjHtzKc&amp;ab_channel=NowThisNews">interview with NowThis News</a>, she called for defunding police departments and that law enforcement is “rarely used” as a source of justice for the black community. She stated that defunding the police is the best available option because officers are trained to use force first, and that cannot be untrained. Answering the obvious question as to what would replace law enforcement, Cullors suggested that social workers would be sent to settle cases of domestic violence

<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/AYa1WjHtzKc" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>

When she was invited to <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/07/31/black-lives-matter-founder-dnc-platform-must-call-for-defunding-police-abolishing-ice/">address the Democratic National Committee</a>, Cullors used the platform to advocate for abolishing the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA), Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). and all prisons and federal detention centers.

“Until and unless our leaders become a signatory to the BREATHE Act — to legislation that eliminates the federal government’s ability to give multi-million dollar grants to militarize police forces; dismantles punitive like ICE, Border Patrol, and the DEA; ends the use of surveillance systems being used to target protesters, and bans the use of police agencies to suppress political dissent — the Democratic Party of today will be remembered as the party of complicity.”

Writing in the <a href="https://harvardlawreview.org/2019/04/abolition-and-reparations-histories-of-resistance-transformative-justice-and-accountability/">Harvard Law Review,</a>  she further detailed her positions and so-called “struggle” against “racism, patriarchy, and capitalism.” Going further than just condemning law enforcement agencies, Cullors designates the United States as the premier violator of human rights in the world. She wrote, “The United States, the world’s largest jailer, is also the world’s greatest perpetrator of war and the most extensive purveyor of human rights atrocities at home and abroad, laying claim to over 800 military bases around the world.”  

Seemingly written as a warning, Cullors describes exactly how she will confront the “white supremacy” that she considers embedded in the fabric of our society. She continued, “Abolition calls on us to not only to destabilize, deconstruct, and demolish oppressive systems, institutions, and practices, but also to repair histories of harm across the board. Our task is not only to abolish prisons, policing, and militarization, which are wielded in the name of “public safety” and “national security.” We must also demand reparations and incorporate reparative justice in our vision for society and community building in the twenty-first century.”  

BLM has been <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/">implicated in a number of riots</a> around the country following the death of George Floyd. A report by the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project stated that 95% of riots over the summer of 2020 were linked to BLM activism or had BLM activists present. The resulting riots were the largest in American history, <a href="https://fee.org/articles/george-floyd-riots-caused-record-setting-2-billion-in-damage-new-report-says-here-s-why-the-true-cost-is-even-higher/#:~:text=Only%20now%20are%20we%20beginning,%241%20billion%20to%20%242%20billion.">causing an estimated $2 Billion in damages</a> and 47 deaths.

Despite the tragedy, Cullors has been, at best, ambivalent towards the destruction caused by riots. Hosted by Seth Myers, <a href="https://www.nbc.com/late-night-with-seth-meyers/video/ramy-youssef-and-patrisse-cullors-on-how-to-help-the-fight-against-police-brutality/4179038">Cullors dismissed looting and rioting</a>, excusing it as paling in comparison to the destruction caused by police.  On the program, she stated,

“I think, and what I’m often describing to people is, we are very obsessed with property damage. Property damage is seen as sort of like the pinnacle of destruction and violence, and we rarely hear the media focus on police violence or police terror...And so there’s this conservation that I think is an uneven conversation in the media about people who are looting versus the infrastructure and the structure of racism and the police officers who continue to cause havoc and chaos in our communities.” 

<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/PahNC5is_g8?start=243&amp;end=322" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>

Patrice has seemingly advocated for rioting. Interrupting Martin O’ Malley at Netroots Nation in 2015, <a href="https://youtu.be/chXJq-VaXXs?t=615">Cullors began chanting slogans</a> that now, with hindsight, seem ominous:

“If I die in police custody, avenge my death, by any means necessary!” 

“If I die in police custody, burn everything down! Because no building is worth more than my life! Because that's the only way motherf****** like you will listen!”  

This is not the only documented pattern of BLM's destructive impact on communities. Since 2014, researchers have identified a resurgence of homicides in inner-cities where police have withdrawn their presence following intense scrutiny by BLM activists. Coined, "<a href="https://www.city-journal.org/ferguson-effect-inner-cities">The Ferguson Effect</a>," thousands of additional deaths of black men and women have been attributed to this sudden absence of law enforcement.

Cullors and her other co-founders have accepted millions in donations since BLM’s inception. <a href="https://capitalresearch.org/article/tides-center-takes-control-of-black-lives-matter-global-network/">Publicly available documents</a> reveal that BLM accumulated more than $3 million in assets in 2019. This is before BLM officially joined <a href="https://www.tides.org/">The Tides Center</a>, a left-leaning organization that reported more than $636 million in revenues. As an official project under the umbrella of the Tides Foundation rather than a stand-alone organization, Cullors and BLM will now be shielded from the same IRS scrutiny that many non-profit organizations face.

Notable donors to the Tides Center include <a href="https://www.city-journal.org/html/connoisseur-chaos-14954.html">George Soros</a> and the <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/08/31/foundation-with-biden-campaign-ties-funding-leftist-agitators-on-u-s-streets/">Ford Foundation</a>. Donations to BLM are handled by <a href="https://www.opensecrets.org/pacs/lookup2.php?cycle=2018&amp;strID=C00401224">ActBlue</a>, a progressive fundraising platform that is set to raise more than $2.5 billion for left-leaning causes in 2020 alone.

Other people will die because of this." The school has yet to take any action, and Winkelmann has yet to issue a statement on the matter.

Dr. <a href="https://www.csuci.edu/news/releases/2020-richard-yao-appointed-interim-president-csuci.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Richard Yao</a> is the interim president of <a href="https://www.csuci.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">California State University &#8211; Channel Islands (CSUCI)</a> as of November 2021. Prior to his role, he served as the Vice President of Student Affairs for CSUCI, the Dean of Students, the Chief Student Affairs Officer, and a Senior Lecturer in Psychology for Nevada State College.
In a campus-wide email, Dr. Yao implied that Kyle Rittenhouse would benefit from his trial because he is white.
The letter was sent to all CSUCI students as the jury was deliberating following closing arguments. Rittenhouse was on trial for the shooting deaths of Joseph Rosenbaum, Anthony Huber, and injuries to Gaige Grosskreutz.
Dr. Yao begins by addressing the events that occurred in Kenosha the previous year:
“There is a long and profound weariness that many members of our campus community may be acutely experiencing as we start this week, as the nation awaits the outcome of the Kyle Rittenhouse trial in Kenosha, Wisconsin. We have been in this place before &#8211; too many times and too recently &#8211; but here we are again, awaiting the fate of Mr. Rittenhouse, whose response to the Black Lives Matter protest that broke out in Kenosha following the police shooting of Jacob Blake just over a year ago resulted in the death of Joseph Rosenbaum, 36, and Anthony Huber, 26, and injuries to Gaige Grosskreutz, 27.” 
The incident with Jacob Blake that Dr. Yao is referring to occurred the previous year. <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/08/28/this-is-why-jacob-blake-had-a-warrant-out-for-his-arrest/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Blake was already wanted for the sexual assault of his ex-girlfriend</a>. On August 23, police were called to his girlfriend’s residence for a disturbance involving Blake. <a href="https://www.theamericanconservative.com/dreher/kenosha-kyle-rittenhouse-the-rest-of-the-jacob-blake-story/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">As police attempted to detain Blake, he became uncooperative and the officers attempted to place him under arrest. </a>
Police were then forced to tase Blake, who began walking towards his car, which contained his two children. Blake failed to obey their orders to drop <a href="https://www.theamericanconservative.com/dreher/kenosha-kyle-rittenhouse-the-rest-of-the-jacob-blake-story/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the knife he was carrying</a> and was shot as he reached into the door of his car.
Due to the misinformation spread after the shooting, riots soon broke out in Kenosha. The looting, arson, and vandalism that followed resulted in <a href="https://www.foxbusiness.com/economy/damage-rioting-kenosha-50-million" target="_blank" rel="noopener">50 million dollars in damages to local businesses.</a>
<a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/kyle-rittenhouse-days-leading-up-to-shooting" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Having spent the day cleaning up graffiti in a nearby neighborhood</a>, Kyle Rittenhouse joined several other residents to guard community business against the rioters with AR-15’s.
Several of the rioters—Rosenbaum, Huber, and Grosskreutz—attacked Rittenhouse as he walked down the street with his rifle. The incident began when Rosenbaum chased Rittenhouse into a parking lot. At this point, Joshua Ziminski—another rioter present—fired upon Rittenhouse with his gun. <a href="https://nypost.com/2021/11/10/kyle-rittenhouse-shooting-a-clear-case-of-self-defense-devine/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rosenbaum immediately proceeded to grab the barrel of Kyle’s rifle resulting in Rittenhouse shooting and killing him</a>.
Rittenhouse was then chased down the street by other rioters, including Huber and Grosskreutz. He tripped and was assaulted while on the ground. Huber proceeded to repeatedly hit Rittenhouse in the head with a skateboard and attempted to steal his rifle, forcing Rittenhouse to shoot and kill him.
Grosskreutz proceeded to approach Rittenhouse with a loaded Glock, aiming the weapon at his head in an apparent attempt to kill him. Grosskreutz—<a href="https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/victoria-taft/2021/11/08/antifa-medic-wounded-by-kyle-rittenhouse-makes-never-before-heard-accusation-from-witness-stand-it-may-backfire-on-him-n1530795" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a member of the ANTIFA affiliated “People’s Revolution”</a>—was then shot by Rittenhouse.
Rittenhouse faced charges of homicide, a <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/annakaplan/2021/11/15/here-are-the-charges-kyle-rittenhouse-faces-after-judge-tossed-dangerous-weapon-misdemeanor/?sh=7d99d8b91cee" target="_blank" rel="noopener">conviction that would carry a life sentence</a>, but was <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/live-news/rittenhouse-trial-jury" target="_blank" rel="noopener">later found innocent by the jury.</a>
Further in his letter, Dr. Yao strongly implies that Rittenhouse is receiving special treatment because of the color of his skin. He proceeds to pose a hypothetical situation, in which instead of a white teenager, a “black 18-year-old” had participated in the “armed response” to the BLM protests in Kenosha. Continuing, he expresses sympathy for “Black, Indigenous, and other people of color” who find it “difficult” to keep from imagining this scenario.
“While Mr. Rittenhouse’s emotional testimony on the stand told a story of self-defense, for Black, Indigenous, and other People of Color, it may be difficult to keep from imagining how the Rittenhouse story may have unfolded had it happened to be the fate of a Black 18-year-old who answered the call of an unauthorized militia for an armed response to the protests and destruction of property that was occurring in downtown Kenosha.” 
Several of the rioters who attacked Rittenhouse have numerous arrests and convictions: <a href="https://www.wisconsinrightnow.com/2021/03/12/kenosha-shooting/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Huber was previously convicted for domestic abuse</a>, Grosskreutz had been arrested for <a href="https://nypost.com/2021/11/15/sole-survivor-of-rittenhouse-shootings-has-criminal-past-report/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">burglary and assaulting his grandmother</a>.

A video later emerged of Rosenbaum<a href="https://nypost.com/2020/08/28/kenosha-shooting-victim-seen-in-video-confronting-armed-men/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> aggressively confronting Kyle and calling him the “n-word” throughout the evening</a>.

Despite their criminal records, Dr. Yao proceeds to express sympathy for Rosenbaum, Huber, and Grosskreutz, lamenting the “trauma” Rittenhouse has caused their families.
“While the jury may begin deliberations in the Rittenhouse trial as soon as today, we do not need to wait until the final verdict to recognize the lives that were lost and the hurt and trauma that families have and will continue to experience in the days, months, and years ahead.” 
Despite the fact that Rosenbaum, Huber, and Grosskreutz, are not black or persons of color, and no evidence has indicated that Rittenhouse’s actions were driven by racial animus, Dr. Yao still characterizes the trial in racial terms. Stating that, “we do not need to wait for the final verdict,” he reaffirms the university will continue to pursue “racial and social justice.”
“In addition, we do not need to wait until the final verdict to reinforce and strengthen our institutional values and mission of realizing racial and social justice. This process can be exhausting and angering, and there are legitimate reasons embedded in our nation’s history for feeling weary, angry, hopeless, and even cynical. But I call explicitly on each individual member of our campus community to resist hopelessness and cynicism. Weariness can be overcome, but hopelessness and cynicism are signals of defeat.“

California State University - Channel Islands

<a href="http://ciapps.csuci.edu/FacultyBiographies/frank.barajas">Dr. Frank Barajas</a> is a Professor of History at California State University, Channel Islands. Interestingly enough, Dr. Barajas offered extra credit to students who wrote to a state assembly member saying that high fees and tuition psychologically impact them. Students were also required to “include why you believe free tuition would better impact your education”.

Dr. <a href="https://www.csuci.edu/news/releases/2020-richard-yao-appointed-interim-president-csuci.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Richard Yao</a> is the interim president of <a href="https://www.csuci.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">California State University - Channel Islands (CSUCI)</a> as of November 2021. Prior to his role, he served as the Vice President of Student Affairs for CSUCI, the Dean of Students, the Chief Student Affairs Officer, and a Senior Lecturer in Psychology for Nevada State College.

In a campus-wide email, Dr. Yao implied that Kyle Rittenhouse would benefit from his trial because he is white.

The letter was sent to all CSUCI students as the jury was deliberating following closing arguments. Rittenhouse was on trial for the shooting deaths of Joseph Rosenbaum, Anthony Huber, and injuries to Gaige Grosskreutz.

Dr. Yao begins by addressing the events that occurred in Kenosha the previous year:

“There is a long and profound weariness that many members of our campus community may be acutely experiencing as we start this week, as the nation awaits the outcome of the Kyle Rittenhouse trial in Kenosha, Wisconsin. We have been in this place before - too many times and too recently - but here we are again, awaiting the fate of Mr. Rittenhouse, whose response to the Black Lives Matter protest that broke out in Kenosha following the police shooting of Jacob Blake just over a year ago resulted in the death of Joseph Rosenbaum, 36, and Anthony Huber, 26, and injuries to Gaige Grosskreutz, 27.” 

The incident with Jacob Blake that Dr. Yao is referring to occurred the previous year. <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/08/28/this-is-why-jacob-blake-had-a-warrant-out-for-his-arrest/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Blake was already wanted for the sexual assault of his ex-girlfriend</a>. On August 23, police were called to his girlfriend’s residence for a disturbance involving Blake. <a href="https://www.theamericanconservative.com/dreher/kenosha-kyle-rittenhouse-the-rest-of-the-jacob-blake-story/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">As police attempted to detain Blake, he became uncooperative and the officers attempted to place him under arrest. </a>

Police were then forced to tase Blake, who began walking towards his car, which contained his two children. Blake failed to obey their orders to drop <a href="https://www.theamericanconservative.com/dreher/kenosha-kyle-rittenhouse-the-rest-of-the-jacob-blake-story/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the knife he was carrying</a> and was shot as he reached into the door of his car.

Due to the misinformation spread after the shooting, riots soon broke out in Kenosha. The looting, arson, and vandalism that followed resulted in <a href="https://www.foxbusiness.com/economy/damage-rioting-kenosha-50-million" target="_blank" rel="noopener">50 million dollars in damages to local businesses.</a>

Grosskreutz—<a href="https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/victoria-taft/2021/11/08/antifa-medic-wounded-by-kyle-rittenhouse-makes-never-before-heard-accusation-from-witness-stand-it-may-backfire-on-him-n1530795" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a member of the ANTIFA affiliated “People’s Revolution”</a>—was then shot by Rittenhouse.

Rittenhouse faced charges of homicide, a <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/annakaplan/2021/11/15/here-are-the-charges-kyle-rittenhouse-faces-after-judge-tossed-dangerous-weapon-misdemeanor/?sh=7d99d8b91cee" target="_blank" rel="noopener">conviction that would carry a life sentence</a>, but was <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/live-news/rittenhouse-trial-jury" target="_blank" rel="noopener">later found innocent by the jury.</a>

<a href="http://english.cornell.edu/kenneth-mcclane">Kenneth McClane</a>, a Professor Emeritus at Cornell University, believes that Republican faculty lowers the intellectual environment on campus, stating “--faculty at Cornell find the anti-scientific rhetoric of many in the Republican Party to be troublesome,” and “Many of us here are scientists -- we believe in global warming".

<a href="http://sts.cornell.edu/people/sbp65.cfm">Dr. Sara Pritchard</a> , a professor at Cornell University, has said that student evaluations of female professors are “pervasively slanted by gender bias” and thus prevents them from being more successful. Pritchard then goes on to say that because of blatant gender bias, female professors should be given bonus points in order to level the playing field.

<a href="https://history.cornell.edu/russell-rickford">Dr. Russell Rickford</a> is an associate professor of history at Cornell University. According to his university biography, Dr. Rickford “specializes in African-American political culture after World War II, the Black Radical Tradition, and transnational social movements.” In his various writings and teaching materials, Dr. Rickford frequently condemns the nation of Israel and alleges that the United States was founded on slavery and white supremacy.

In a book titled <a href="https://books.google.co.il/books?id=SEAeCwAAQBAJ&amp;pg=PA276&amp;lpg=PA276&amp;dq=Russell+Rickford+israel&amp;source=bl&amp;ots=vIzqNlUKjC&amp;sig=KRxT1-8CHqm0mHE_Fr8k_PI9bFQ&amp;hl=en&amp;sa=X&amp;ved=0ahUKEwiqg_3_t-DTAhUDIVAKHUUCDtMQ6AEIRDAG#v=onepage&amp;q=Russell%20Rickford%20israel&amp;f=false">Beyond Boundaries: The Manning Marable Reader</a>, Dr. Rickford alleges that Israel bears ultimate responsibility for the 9/11 terrorist attacks. On page 276, Dr. Rickford states: “The US media and opinion makers repeatedly went out of their way to twist the facts and distort the political realities of the Middle East by insisting that Osama bin Laden’s group’s murderous assaults had nothing to do with Israel’s policies towards the Palestinians. Nobody else in the world, with the possible exception of the Israeli’s, really believes that.”

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

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

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

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

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

<a href="https://as.cornell.edu/news/jelani-cobb-address-questions-policing-and-racial-justice-krieger-lecture">Cornell University frequently welcomes Dr. Rickford</a> to campus to discuss policing<a href="https://as.cornell.edu/news/racism-america-webinar-examine-protest-movements">, racism, and white supremacy</a>.

<a href="https://www.engineering.cornell.edu/faculty-directory/bruce-monger" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Bruce Monger</a> is the Director of Undergraduate Studies for <a href="https://www.eas.cornell.edu/eas" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Earth and Atmospheric Sciences</a> at <a href="https://www.cornell.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cornell University</a> in Ithaca, New York. According to his University profile, Dr. Monger teaches Introductory Oceanography, Physical Oceanography, and Satellite Remote Sensing.

In an interview, Dr. Monger—who describes himself as a socialist—admits his classes are taught for the purpose of creating revolutionaries.

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

When the email received significant media attention, Cornell University released a statement defending Dr. Monger.

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

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

Ms. <a href="https://crimjust.rutgers.edu/people/faculty-directory/details/30-faculty/faculty/620-erakat-noura">Noura Erakat</a> is an Assistant Professor of Africana Studies at Rutgers University. According to her university profile, Professor Erakat specializes in fields that include international law, humanitarian law, human rights law, national security law, refugee law, and critical race theory. A harsh critic of the state of Israel, the professor has repeatedly demonized and called for the destruction of the only Jewish state in the world.
Professor Erakat’s work frequently characterizes Israel as a racist state that is equivalent to the apartheid-era South African government. In a November 2019 interview with DemocracyNow, she stated, ”<a href="https://www.democracynow.org/2019/11/19/noura_erakat_israeli_settlements_trump_announcement">we are witnessing the entrenchment of an apartheid regime</a>, and the U.S. [is] at the helm of that process.”
Professor Erakat repeats this false claim to justify her support of the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement. In a November 2020 video panel discussion with the Middle East Institute, Professor Erakat calls on the world <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7S7ZkKMFUuU&amp;t=3956s">to resist and alienate Israel via adherence to a BDS platform</a>.
<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/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-Adhere-to-a-BDS-Platform.mp4?_=1" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-Adhere-to-a-BDS-Platform.mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-Adhere-to-a-BDS-Platform.mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
BDS—short for Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions—supporters embrace the following three tenets as a feature of the campaign:
&#8211; Boycotting all goods that originate from the state of Israel;
&#8211; Divesting all funds (private or public) that are allocated to Israel; and
&#8211; Placing sanctions exclusively on Israel.
Mr. Omar Barghouti, a co-founder of the BDS movement, admits that the ultimate outcome of these steps is the <a href="https://twitter.com/StandWithUs/status/1267561561565958144">dismantlement of the state of Israel</a>.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
&nbsp;
Professor Erakat likewise calls for Israel to be destroyed and replaced by an Arab-majority Palestinian state. As reported by The Spectator in July 2019, Ms. Erakat spoke at an event in Washington, DC, where she <a href="https://spectator.org/noura-erakat-recounts-her-anxiety-over-israels-existence/">advocated for Arabs to “help indigenize” Jews in Israel </a>in order to achieve a sole Palestinian state or a “one-state solution.”
Professor Erakat is far more brazen in calling for the outright destruction of Israel when speaking at anti-Israel protests around the country. During one march in May 2021—captured by News2Share—she called for the <a href="https://twitter.com/FordFischer/status/1393739882825195521/">liberation of Palestine, “from the river to the sea.</a>”
<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/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-From-the-River-to-the-Sea-.mp4?_=2" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-From-the-River-to-the-Sea-.mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-From-the-River-to-the-Sea-.mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
According to the Israeli newspaper Arutz Sheva, the chant, “from the river to the sea,” was <a href="https://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/291203">popularized by terrorist groups such as the Palestinian Liberation Organization</a> (PLO). The phrase alludes to the destruction of Israel—and thus the genocide of the nation’s Jews—between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea. <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/1948/08/02/archives/aim-to-oust-jews-pledged-by-sheikh-head-of-moslem-brotherhood-says.html">The chant is thought to originate from the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hassan el-Banna</a>, who was qouted by The New York Times stating, &#8220;If the Jewish state becomes a fact, and this is realized by the Arab peoples, they will drive the Jews who live in their midst into the sea.&#8221;
Even though Professor Erakat can be heard calling for the “denuclearization of Israel” in the same speech, she had in 2013 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I20HOx5zfv0&amp;ab_channel=JFhsfohhMN">condemned efforts to dismantle Iran’s nuclear program as “racist</a>.”
<div style="width: 640px;" class="wp-video"><video class="wp-video-shortcode" id="video-0-3" width="640" height="360" preload="metadata" controls="controls"><source type="video/mp4" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-Stating-that-Iran-cant-have-nuclear-weapons-is-racist.-.mp4?_=3" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-Stating-that-Iran-cant-have-nuclear-weapons-is-racist.-.mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-Stating-that-Iran-cant-have-nuclear-weapons-is-racist.-.mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
She further <a href="https://www.instagram.com/tv/CMzhsZtBfgg/?igshid=5p918cganhq1">defended this position</a> in a video uploaded to her Instagram in March of 2021, arguing there is no contradiction in opposing sanctions for Iran while supporting sanctions on Israel.
<div style="width: 640px;" class="wp-video"><video class="wp-video-shortcode" id="video-0-4" width="640" height="360" preload="metadata" controls="controls"><source type="video/mp4" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-Instagram-Edited-.mp4?_=4" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-Instagram-Edited-.mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-Instagram-Edited-.mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
During a separate march in May of 2021,  Ms. Erakat can be heard chanting “By spirit and by blood, we redeem you, Palestine!” in front of the Israeli Embassy.
&nbsp;
<div style="width: 640px;" class="wp-video"><video class="wp-video-shortcode" id="video-0-5" width="640" height="360" preload="metadata" controls="controls"><source type="video/mp4" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat.mp4?_=5" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat.mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat.mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
In April of 2020, Noura Erakat’s cousin, Mr. Ahmed Erakat, was killed after <a href="https://www.algemeiner.com/2020/06/29/palestinian-rams-a-checkpoint-death-lies-and-videotape/">ramming his car into an Israeli checkpoint during a failed terrorist attack</a>. Despite the publication of footage verifying the incident and a pipe bomb later being found in the van by investigators, Ms. Erakat continues to claim that he was murdered by Israeli forces.

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

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

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

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

<a href="http://history.rutgers.edu/faculty-directory/174-markowitz-norman">Dr. Norman Markowitz</a> is a Professor of History at Rutgers University. Dr. Markowitz is also an active member of the Communist Party USA since 1978.  He writes and teaches about communism using his “Marxist Perspective.” As a supporter of Obama, Markowitz said that it would be good if Obama’s policies were labeled socialist because it would bring socialism to the forefront and looked at more seriously as a viable option for Americans. He has been a longtime defender of the Communist spies Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, and has said he has “enormous respect” for Howard Zinn, a Marxist historian.

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

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

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

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

&nbsp;

Cooper has denigrated conservatives throughout her career along racial lines. <a href="https://www.c-span.org/video/?444245-2/eloquent-rage&amp;playEvent">During a speech in Baltimore</a>, she stated that as white men lose their power, they will continue to “terrorize” black men and women. In a previous thread, she stated that the black community is being eaten alive by “capitalism, patriarchy, and racism,” and white people won’t feel any negative consequences of these systems so long as they can continue to displace white people through systems like gentrification.

Ms. <a href="https://crimjust.rutgers.edu/people/faculty-directory/details/30-faculty/faculty/620-erakat-noura">Noura Erakat</a> is an Assistant Professor of Africana Studies at Rutgers University. According to her university profile, Professor Erakat specializes in fields that include international law, humanitarian law, human rights law, national security law, refugee law, and critical race theory. A harsh critic of the state of Israel, the professor has repeatedly demonized and called for the destruction of the only Jewish state in the world.

Professor Erakat’s work frequently characterizes Israel as a racist state that is equivalent to the apartheid-era South African government. In a November 2019 interview with DemocracyNow, she stated, ”<a href="https://www.democracynow.org/2019/11/19/noura_erakat_israeli_settlements_trump_announcement">we are witnessing the entrenchment of an apartheid regime</a>, and the U.S. [is] at the helm of that process.”

Professor Erakat repeats this false claim to justify her support of the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement. In a November 2020 video panel discussion with the Middle East Institute, Professor Erakat calls on the world <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7S7ZkKMFUuU&amp;t=3956s">to resist and alienate Israel via adherence to a BDS platform</a>.

[video width="1280" height="720" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-Adhere-to-a-BDS-Platform.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

BDS—short for Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions—supporters embrace the following three tenets as a feature of the campaign:

- Boycotting all goods that originate from the state of Israel;

- Divesting all funds (private or public) that are allocated to Israel; and

- Placing sanctions exclusively on Israel.

Mr. Omar Barghouti, a co-founder of the BDS movement, admits that the ultimate outcome of these steps is the <a href="https://twitter.com/StandWithUs/status/1267561561565958144">dismantlement of the state of Israel</a>.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

&nbsp;

Professor Erakat likewise calls for Israel to be destroyed and replaced by an Arab-majority Palestinian state. As reported by The Spectator in July 2019, Ms. Erakat spoke at an event in Washington, DC, where she <a href="https://spectator.org/noura-erakat-recounts-her-anxiety-over-israels-existence/">advocated for Arabs to “help indigenize” Jews in Israel </a>in order to achieve a sole Palestinian state or a “one-state solution.”

Professor Erakat is far more brazen in calling for the outright destruction of Israel when speaking at anti-Israel protests around the country. During one march in May 2021—captured by News2Share—she called for the <a href="https://twitter.com/FordFischer/status/1393739882825195521/">liberation of Palestine, “from the river to the sea.</a>”

[video width="1280" height="720" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-From-the-River-to-the-Sea-.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

According to the Israeli newspaper Arutz Sheva, the chant, “from the river to the sea,” was <a href="https://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/291203">popularized by terrorist groups such as the Palestinian Liberation Organization</a> (PLO). The phrase alludes to the destruction of Israel—and thus the genocide of the nation’s Jews—between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea. <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/1948/08/02/archives/aim-to-oust-jews-pledged-by-sheikh-head-of-moslem-brotherhood-says.html">The chant is thought to originate from the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hassan el-Banna</a>, who was qouted by The New York Times stating, "If the Jewish state becomes a fact, and this is realized by the Arab peoples, they will drive the Jews who live in their midst into the sea."

Even though Professor Erakat can be heard calling for the “denuclearization of Israel” in the same speech, she had in 2013 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I20HOx5zfv0&amp;ab_channel=JFhsfohhMN">condemned efforts to dismantle Iran’s nuclear program as “racist</a>.”

[video width="1280" height="720" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-Stating-that-Iran-cant-have-nuclear-weapons-is-racist.-.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

She further <a href="https://www.instagram.com/tv/CMzhsZtBfgg/?igshid=5p918cganhq1">defended this position</a> in a video uploaded to her Instagram in March of 2021, arguing there is no contradiction in opposing sanctions for Iran while supporting sanctions on Israel.

[video width="960" height="540" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-Instagram-Edited-.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

During a separate march in May of 2021,  Ms. Erakat can be heard chanting “By spirit and by blood, we redeem you, Palestine!” in front of the Israeli Embassy.

&nbsp;

[video width="854" height="480" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

In April of 2020, Noura Erakat’s cousin, Mr. Ahmed Erakat, was killed after <a href="https://www.algemeiner.com/2020/06/29/palestinian-rams-a-checkpoint-death-lies-and-videotape/">ramming his car into an Israeli checkpoint during a failed terrorist attack</a>. Despite the publication of footage verifying the incident and a pipe bomb later being found in the van by investigators, Ms. Erakat continues to claim that he was murdered by Israeli forces.

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

<a href="https://comminfo.rutgers.edu/kumanyika-chenjerai">Dr. Chenjerai Kumanyika</a> is an Assistant Professor at Rutgers University. Dr. Kumanyika traveled to Ferguson, MO multiple times to protest the non-indictment of the white police officer who shot Michael Brown. He was also a signatory on a letter supporting the demands from the Coalition of Concerned Students who believe in prosecuting what they call “predatory behaviors and defamatory speech,” even from social media sources. The letter also calls for building a new multi-cultural center, more support for “underrepresented groups,” increasing the number of minority faculty members, and for Clemson employees to go through diversity training. Chenjerai also orchestrated a campaign against a student senate candidate and accused a candidate of racism for posing with a gun and American flag for his campaign poster.

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

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

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

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

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

The full text of the letter sent to the Leiter Reports is included below.
“I am writing to let you know that I have been forced to resign from Midwestern State University. As a result of last year&#8217;s scandal I ended up developing severe PTSD for which I have since been hospitalized on three separate occasions. Having already thrown me under the bus in October 2020 by publicly condemning me and refusing to defend my safety and reputation against attacks by a white supremacist mob, the university subsequently saw fit to deny the accommodations I had requested under the ADA. Faced with the choice of being terminated or resigning, I ultimately opted for the latter.
Long story short: the far right&#8211;in concert with the soulless, amoral administration of Midwestern State University&#8211;has succeeded in destroying my academic career and, frankly, my life. “

His university biography states that his research interests include labor and environmental history, global capitalism, and the U.S. West. Loomis is known for his defense of the terrorist group ANTIFA, calling for the execution of NRA Vice-President Wayne LaPierre, and voracious opposition to law enforcement.
Loomis first attracted attention in 2012—following the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting—for his condemnation of the NRA. In a series of tweets, <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=4544">he called for</a> Wayne LaPierre’s “head on a stick” and dubbed the NRA a “terrorist organization” that murders children.

In an interview addressing the incident, he refused to apologize for his comments and even <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tOmhqO95OU&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;ab_channel=TheZeroHourwithRJEskow=53s">called for the abolishment of the Second Amendment</a>.
Loomis recently authored his support for the murder of a Trump supporter in Portland, Oregon. <a href="https://www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2020/09/why-was-michael-reinoehl-killed">In a piece on a blog titled “Lawyers, Guns, and Money,”</a> Loomis seemed to be more distraught over ANTIFA member Michael Reinhol’s death following a shootout with police, rather than the death of the man he killed, Aaron Danielson. Reinoehl, who was wanted by police for killing Danielson during a Trump rally in Portland, <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/suspect-in-portland-fatal-shooting-has-been-killed-reports">was killed</a> after drawing a gun on law enforcement agents serving a warrant for his arrest.
In his blog post, Loomis wondered whether or not the cops were working with “fascists” to murder Reinoehl.

In addition to authoring an <a href="https://www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2018/08/mccain">insulting eulogy</a> following the death of the late Senator John McCain, Loomis uses his online platform to denigrate prominent conservatives while visiting their grave-sites.

In an interview addressing the incident, he refused to apologize for his comments and even <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tOmhqO95OU&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;ab_channel=TheZeroHourwithRJEskow=53s">called for the abolishment of the Second Amendment</a>.

Loomis recently authored his support for the murder of a Trump supporter in Portland, Oregon. <a href="https://www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2020/09/why-was-michael-reinoehl-killed">In a piece on a blog titled “Lawyers, Guns, and Money,”</a> Loomis seemed to be more distraught over ANTIFA member Michael Reinhol’s death following a shootout with police, rather than the death of the man he killed, Aaron Danielson. Reinoehl, who was wanted by police for killing Danielson during a Trump rally in Portland, <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/suspect-in-portland-fatal-shooting-has-been-killed-reports">was killed</a> after drawing a gun on law enforcement agents serving a warrant for his arrest.

In his blog post, Loomis wondered whether or not the cops were working with “fascists” to murder Reinoehl.

When confronted by a reader over his comments, Loomis replied that he saw nothing immoral about killing a “fascist.”

Loomis frequently denounces law enforcement online. He refers to the police as fascists, calls for their disbandment, and even <a href="https://www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2020/08/today-in-american-ethnic-cleansing-4">authored an additional blog post </a>accusing ICE of ethnic cleansing.

In addition to authoring an <a href="https://www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2018/08/mccain">insulting eulogy</a> following the death of the late Senator John McCain, Loomis uses his online platform to denigrate prominent conservatives while visiting their grave-sites. He <a href="https://www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2015/10/erik-visits-an-american-grave-iv">described William F. Buckley</a> as a “rotting putrescent corpse of one of the worst human beings to ever foul the land of this fine nation,” and <a href="https://www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2019/04/erik-visits-an-american-grave-part-463">referred to Navy Seal Chris Kyle</a> as a “professional murderer.”
