Jennifer Adair

<a href="https://education.utexas.edu/faculty/jennifer_adair">Dr. Jennifer Adair</a> is an Associate Professor at the University of Texas, Austin. Dr. Adair proposed indoctrinating children as young as kindergarten in racial issues, in order to ‘prevent another Ferguson.&#8217; One proposed project involved having the students make protest signs about racial injustice or other art projects about school integration or bus boycotts. Adair and the other professors working with her drew heavily from the philosophy of radical historian Howard Zinn in their effort.

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

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

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

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

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

Thomas K. Hubbard was the James R. Dougherty Jr. Centennial Professor of Classics, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20190905194331/https://minio.la.utexas.edu/colaweb-prod/person_files/0/354/thomas_k_hubbard_curriculum_vitae.pdf">who taught at the University of Texas-Austin from 1988 t0 2021</a>. Hubbard’s body of research included ancient pederasty – adult male sexual relations with underage boys  – which Hubbard calls the “<a href="https://www.dallasnews.com/news/politics/2019/12/17/ut-students-protest-professors-house-over-his-writings-on-sexual-relations-between-men-and-boys/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">romantic courtship</a>” of teenage boys by older men.

Writing in the peer-reviewed Thymos Journal of Boyhood Studies, Hubbard detailed this position in an article titled, <a href="https://www.researchgate.net/publication/276216200_Sexual_Consent_and_the_Adolescent_Male_or_What_Can_We_Learn_from_the_Greeks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sexual Consent and the Adolescent Male, or What Can We Learn From the Greeks</a>. Hubbard <a href="https://www.dallasnews.com/opinion/editorials/2019/12/18/a-ut-professor-advocates-pedophilia-why-are-we-paying-for-it/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claims</a> that there are great benefits to relationships between older men and teenage boys by appealing to the portrayal of these relationships in Greek artworks and myths.

Hubbard utilizes his research on pederasty to buoy his advocacy for lowering the federal legal age for sexual consent. Hubbard also <a href="https://www.dallasnews.com/news/politics/2019/12/17/ut-students-protest-professors-house-over-his-writings-on-sexual-relations-between-men-and-boys/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">decries age-of-consent laws</a>, calling them a “sad by-product” of the Victorian era that prevented sexual liberation.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1061 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-60-e1611868812189-1024x281.png" alt="" width="580" height="159" />

Hubbard made the distinction, in a <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200216112913if_/https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wGGrODNSdwudrF1G4uerU2DsRxcSx3DR1Nbn6JOd7ho/edit" target="_blank" rel="noopener">now-deleted google document</a>, that he was speaking on behalf of pederasty and not pedophilia. He continues in the Doc by extolling several nations for having age-of-consent laws that were lower than the United States.

Hubbard’s work has been distributed and used by <a href="https://www.dallasnews.com/news/politics/2019/12/17/ut-students-protest-professors-house-over-his-writings-on-sexual-relations-between-men-and-boys/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">groups like the North American Man/Boy Love Association</a> (NAMBLA), which advocates for the abolishment of age-of-consent laws between children and adults.

The University of Texas-Austin’s administration reaffirmed Hibbard’s right to <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/students-want-thomas-hubbard-fired-for-work-on-pederasty-but-university-of-texas-says-its-protected-speech" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“explore controversial and offensive ideas</a>.” As of December 2020, <a href="https://www.statesman.com/story/news/education/2020/07/23/ut-professor-accused-of-promoting-pedophilia-sues-student-for-libel/42515639/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hubbard is suing a student and 10 others for libel</a> after they distributed flyers labeling him a pedophile.
UPDATE 
A university spokeswoman has informed the Professor Watchlist team that Thomas Hubbard is no longer employed at the University of Texas. As stated in their response, Dr. Hubbard announced his retirement in July of 2021 and is no longer associated with the University in any capacity.

Despite their written statement, <a href="https://cola.utexas.edu/european_studies/people/faculty/thubbard">Dr. Hubbard was still listed on the university website</a> as a professor in the Center for European Studies at the time of the university's letter

In a follow-up conversation with the university spokeswomen, Dr. Hubbard's profile was removed from the European Studies page and he is no longer listed as a faculty member with the University as of December 15th, 2021.

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

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

In an interview with MSNBC, Brennan <a href="https://www.msnbc.com/deadline-white-house/watch/fmr-cia-dir-brennan-republicans-will-continue-to-gaslight-the-country-101798469719" target="_blank" rel="noopener">remarks</a> that many conservatives make him “embarrassed to be a white man.”

&nbsp;

Brennan has admitted in the past that he voted for the Communist Party in past elections. According to CNN, Brennan <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2016/09/15/politics/john-brennan-cia-communist-vote/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">recounts</a> that he admitted to voting for the Communist Party Candidate, Gus Hall, in the 1976 general election. Brennan is reported <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2016/09/15/politics/john-brennan-cia-communist-vote/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">stating</a> that voting for Hall was his way of “signaling his unhappiness of the system.”

As The Spectator <a href="https://spectator.org/john-brennans-president-remembering-comrade-gus-hall/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">documents</a>, Gus Hall was a four-time presidential candidate and leader of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA). Throughout his career, Hall defended atrocities committed by the Soviet Union while secretly receiving tens of millions of dollars from the Kremlin.

The Professor Watchlist Team reached out to the Intelligence Studies Project at the University of Texas for comment but has not received a response by the time of publication.

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

<a href="https://alexanderreidross.net/curriculum-vitae/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Alexander Reid Ross</a> is an Instructor in the <a href="https://www.pdx.edu/geography/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Geography Department</a> at <a href="https://www.pdx.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Portland State University</a>.
Dr. Ross is a supporter of anti-fascist movements—commonly referred to as “ANTIFA”— across the country. As a journalist, he regularly publishes favorable articles about far-left protests that descend into violence while writing for publications that are supportive of ANTIFA.
As <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/dhs-leaked-email-confirms-that-antifa-is-an-organized-group" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> by The Post-Millennial, leaked emails from the Department of Homeland Security show that law enforcement agencies identify ANTIFA as an organization that engages in “organized” rather than sporadic violence. Many <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/guns-knives-and-other-weapons-confiscated-from-suspects-at-portland-antifa-riot/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">members arm themselves with knives and firearms</a> to violently confront conservatives at events. In the Summer of 2021, <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/us-attorneys-office-in-dc-refuses-to-investigate-attack-on-rand-paul/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">members of ANTIFA attacked Senator Rand Paul</a> and his wife as they walked through Washington D.C.
As the publication Quillete has identified, <a href="https://quillette.com/2019/05/29/its-not-your-imagination-the-journalists-writing-about-antifa-are-often-their-cheerleaders/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">far-left journalists based in Portland frequently provide favorable coverage to ANTIFA</a> factions for sympathetic outlets. One such individual is Dr. Ross, who writes for prominent publications, such as VICE, The Washington Post, The Daily Beast, and the New York Times.
He has additionally written a book—titled, “Against the Fascist Creep”—in defense of ANTIFA and their confrontational tactics. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOS0O4nndb4&amp;ab_channel=FoxAlive" target="_blank" rel="noopener">While speaking at the Orange County Anarchist Book Fair in 2017 about the book,</a> he stated that “militant ways” are needed to keep Republicans and conservatives in check, comparing both to the murderous Klu Klux Klan.

&nbsp;
He further encourages members of the audience—while speaking as an “anti-fascist”—to be prepared to “get their hands dirty” when confronting fascism.

&nbsp;
Dr. has also written for publications such as the <a href="https://antifascistnews.net/2016/12/24/trump-the-fascist/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">radical environmentalist magazine, Earth First!</a>, and the ANTIFA-sympathetic publication, <a href="https://itsgoingdown.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">It’s Going Down</a>.

<a href="https://alexanderreidross.net/curriculum-vitae/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Alexander Reid Ross</a> is an Instructor in the <a href="https://www.pdx.edu/geography/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Geography Department</a> at <a href="https://www.pdx.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Portland State University</a>.

Dr. Ross is a supporter of anti-fascist movements—commonly referred to as “ANTIFA”— across the country. As a journalist, he regularly publishes favorable articles about far-left protests that descend into violence while writing for publications that are supportive of ANTIFA.

As <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/dhs-leaked-email-confirms-that-antifa-is-an-organized-group" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> by The Post-Millennial, leaked emails from the Department of Homeland Security show that law enforcement agencies identify ANTIFA as an organization that engages in “organized” rather than sporadic violence. Many <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/guns-knives-and-other-weapons-confiscated-from-suspects-at-portland-antifa-riot/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">members arm themselves with knives and firearms</a> to violently confront conservatives at events. In the Summer of 2021, <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/us-attorneys-office-in-dc-refuses-to-investigate-attack-on-rand-paul/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">members of ANTIFA attacked Senator Rand Paul</a> and his wife as they walked through Washington D.C.

As the publication Quillete has identified, <a href="https://quillette.com/2019/05/29/its-not-your-imagination-the-journalists-writing-about-antifa-are-often-their-cheerleaders/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">far-left journalists based in Portland frequently provide favorable coverage to ANTIFA</a> factions for sympathetic outlets. One such individual is Dr. Ross, who writes for prominent publications, such as VICE, The Washington Post, The Daily Beast, and the New York Times.

He has additionally written a book—titled, “Against the Fascist Creep”—in defense of ANTIFA and their confrontational tactics. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOS0O4nndb4&amp;ab_channel=FoxAlive" target="_blank" rel="noopener">While speaking at the Orange County Anarchist Book Fair in 2017 about the book,</a> he stated that “militant ways” are needed to keep Republicans and conservatives in check, comparing both to the murderous Klu Klux Klan.

&nbsp;

He further encourages members of the audience—while speaking as an “anti-fascist”—to be prepared to “get their hands dirty” when confronting fascism.

&nbsp;

Dr. has also written for publications such as the <a href="https://antifascistnews.net/2016/12/24/trump-the-fascist/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">radical environmentalist magazine, Earth First!</a>, and the ANTIFA-sympathetic publication, <a href="https://itsgoingdown.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">It’s Going Down</a>.

Charles Strozier

<a href="https://www.jjay.cuny.edu/cot/staff">Dr. Charles Strozier</a> is a Professor for the John Jay College of Criminal Justice. Dr. Strozier argues law-abiding citizens become Taliban terrorist extremists due to climate change. Strozier is a proponent of the idea that the number-one national security threat is climate change, a view espoused by Bernie Sanders among others. He asks, along with his research partner Kelly Berkel, “If more Americans knew how glacial melt contributes to catastrophic weather in Afghanistan—potentially strengthening the Taliban and imperiling Afghan girls who want to attend school—would we drive more hybrids and use millions fewer plastic bags?”

john-jay-college

John Jay College

<a href="http://www.jjay.cuny.edu/faculty/taryn-fivek">Taryn Fivek</a> is an adjunct professor of Economics at John Jay College in New York City. A fanatical activist, she regularly makes appearances at demonstrations and travels frequently for lectures across the country on behalf of the Workers World Party (WWP).

Formed in 1959, the <a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=6vOzIPWKrwgC&amp;printsec=frontcover&amp;source=gbs_ge_summary_r&amp;cad=0#v=onepage&amp;q&amp;f=false">WWP is a Marxist party</a> inspired by the Bolshevik Revolution and Leon Trotsky. The WWP presented itself as a more radical alternative to the socialist parties of the time. The WWP deploys activists to demonstrations all over the country, including the 2017 Inauguration Day riots (<a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/public-safety/protesters-who-destroyed-property-on-inauguration-day-part-of-well-organized-group/2017/01/21/096678c8-dfeb-11e6-ad42-f3375f271c9c_story.html?utm_term=.2647d2b32eb6">J20 Riots</a>), and marches to <a href="https://dailycaller.com/2017/08/16/woman-who-destroyed-durham-confederate-statue-is-a-pro-north-korea-marxist/?utm_campaign=atdailycaller&amp;utm_source=Twitter&amp;utm_medium=Social">topple Confederate statues</a>. Staunchly anti-American, the WWP frequently <a href="https://www.workers.org/2012/world/peoples_korea_0126/">defends the North Korean dictatorship</a>, claiming the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnzBEbuZPIw&amp;t=602s&amp;ab_channel=WorkersWorldParty">DPRK offers women more rights than Western Nations. </a>

Fivek is a frequent speaker at WWP meetings and often supports replacing capitalism with communism.  She has admitted to her involvement in the organization of the  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0wZV5nB6Sg&amp;t=5s&amp;ab_channel=WorkersWorldParty">J20 Riots</a>, claiming “only communism can smash fascism.”

Fivek has spoken fondly of <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmwr7SSglhM&amp;t=8s&amp;ab_channel=WorkersWorldParty">attending Venezuelan conferences with dictator Nicholas Maduro</a>. A <a href="https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/hayesbrown/a-twitter-account-that-denies-people-are-starving-in-syria-i">2016 Buzzfeed report</a> identified Fivek as the anonymous author of a blog and associated Twitter handle that defended Syrian dictator Bashar Al-Assad, who is known for brutally <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/11/world/middleeast/syria-torture-prisons.html">torturing and murdering Syrian citizens</a>.

Speaking before a 2017 protest, Fivek condemned President Trump’s decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. <a href="https://youtu.be/QdLUHeN5I1U?t=2645">She lauded the “Palestinian Vanguard's,” violent resistance to Israel</a>, praised<a href="https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/palestinian-rocket-and-mortar-attacks-against-israel"> indiscriminate Hamas attacks.</a>  She described Israel as a “Zionist entity” that is at the bidding of globalists and big banks.

During the first week of classes, Zakaria distributed a map of the Middle East highlighting Arabic-speaking countries. However, it omitted Israel and labeled it as Palestine.

Dr. <a href="https://politicalscience.sdsu.edu/people/faculty/graubart_j.html">Jonathan Graubart</a> is a Professor of Political Science at San Diego State University (SDSU) and Director of the International Security and Conflict Resolution Program. According to his university biography, Dr. Graubart specializes in international relations, international law, Israel-Palestine, the UN, normative theory, and “resistance politics.”

In a July 2017 article, The College Fix reported that Dr. Graubart <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/professor-annoyed-groundswell-good-wishes-john-mccain-calls-war-criminal/">condemned Senator McCain as a “war criminal</a>” and someone who “has championed horrifying actions” in a now-deleted Facebook post on his personal account. <a href="https://www.johnmccain.com/">John McCain</a> was a United States Senator from Arizona who <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/john-mccain-dead-at-81">served as a Navy pilot and was a prisoner of war</a> during the Vietnam War. He died in August of 2018 after a battle with brain cancer.

In the now-deleted Facebook post, Dr. Graubart stated that <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/professor-annoyed-groundswell-good-wishes-john-mccain-calls-war-criminal/">he found himself “annoyed at the groundswell of good wishes for John McCain after his diagnosis of glioblastoma” (brain cancer).</a>.” His comment was posted <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/lawmakers-send-wishes-john-mccain-brain-tumor-announcement/story?id=48736469">just after John McCain announced his cancer diagnosis</a>.

ABC 10 News San Diego reported in July 2018 that an unnamed SDSU spokesman released a statement <a href="https://www.10news.com/news/san-diego-state-professor-makes-controversial-facebook-post">referring to Dr. Graubart’s post about McCain as “private speech”</a> that cannot be regulated. The spokesman also states that it does not “endorse” his views, nor does it have a social media policy for faculty members.

“SDSU does not have a social media policy for faculty and staff. As a public institution, we do not and cannot regulate the private speech of students, faculty or staff. However, that should not imply the university's endorsement of any particular viewpoint”

In a statement to Fox News later in 2017, Dr. Graubart stated that he posted the remarks on his private Facebook account, and therefore <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/professor-calls-mccain-a-war-criminal-annoyed-at-well-wishes-after-senators-brain-cancer-diagnosis">were written in an “off-the-cuff manner”</a> and not with a “large public in mind.”

Dr. Love is the founder of the Abolitionist Teaching Network (ATN) whose goal is to provide educators with the resources for abolitionist teaching, which Dr. Love characterizes <a href="https://www.sesp.northwestern.edu/news-center/news/2021/01/abolitionist-teaching-a-conversation-with-bettina-l-love.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">as “calling out” fellow teachers who are racist, homophobic, or Islamophobic.”</a>
ATN’s own documents encourage abolitionist teachers to promote the “liberation” of people of color and “embody the spirit” of the Black Lives Matter movement.

James Porter

<a href="http://rhetoric.berkeley.edu/faculty-profile/james-i-porter-1">Dr. James Porter</a>, a Professor of Rhetoric at the University of California, Berkely and formerly of the University of California, Irvine, was one of 60 professors who supported the ban of the American flag from an &#8220;inclusive&#8221; area at UC Irvine. He signed a letter claiming that the American flag is a symbol of nationalism and racism.

University of California-Berkeley

<a href="https://ethnicstudies.berkeley.edu/people/hatem-bazian/">Hatem Bazian</a> is a professor of Asian American and Asian Diaspora Studies at the University of California, Berkeley. He is the <a href="https://zaytuna.edu/academics/faculty/hatem-bazian">co-founder and assistant professor </a>at Zaytuna College, which is the only accredited American college in which the curriculum is based on Islamic fundamentals. Bazian’s resume is littered with antisemitic and pro-terror incidents, both on and off-campus.

When attending San Francisco State University, Bazian accused the student newspaper of being <a href="https://www.meforum.org/campus-watch/19590/profiles-in-hate-hatem-bazian">infiltrated by “Jewish spies</a>,” and allegedly denied Jewish students jobs while serving as Student Body President, claiming their support of Israel exhibited their racism.

Bazian’s activism grew more militant with time. At an Islamic conference in 1999, he was quoted by the Detroit Free Press reciting an Islamic Hadith <a href="https://www.meforum.org/campus-watch/8865/hatem-bazian-personal-story">calling for the slaughter of Jews</a>.
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-2093" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2022-05-27T110304.469-e1653674626458-1024x506.png" alt="" width="450" height="223" />
After 79 members of Students for Justice in Palestine were arrested for disrupting a Holocaust memorial, Bazian asserted that the university's actions were racially motivated. During the subsequently organized protests, Bazain <a href="https://www.jweekly.com/2018/10/22/berkeley-city-councils-shameful-tolerance-of-anti-semitism/">insinuated that powerful Jews controlled the University and orchestrated the arrests</a>.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-986" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-25-e1606771551100-1024x312.png" alt="" width="450" height="137" />

Bazian’s thinly veiled antisemitism is seamlessly <a href="https://canarymission.org/professor/Hatem_Bazian">interlaced with his anti-Israel demagoguery</a>. A proponent of the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement,  Bazian has called for the dismantlement of the state of Israel and has praised the terrorist group Hamas. Bazian <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mfv5yaKxNgo&amp;ab_channel=HamasOnCampus">openly called for a domestic insurrection</a> within America. Calling the crowd to arms at a 2003 anti-war rally, Bazian called for an “Intifada” to start in America.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-2094" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2022-05-27T110636.459-e1653674828851-1024x532.png" alt="" width="450" height="234" />

The Intifada was then in the midst of its third year of blood-soaked carnage in Israel. Before it abated in 2006, <a href="https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/comprehensive-listing-of-terrorism-victims-in-israel">over one thousand men, women, and children would perish</a> from sniper fire and suicide attacks on buses, markets, and restaurants. The most gruesome attacks included the <a href="https://www.algemeiner.com/2020/10/26/what-the-ramallah-lynchings-taught-us-about-palestinian-incitement/">public lynching and disembowelment of two Israeli soldiers</a>, and the <a href="https://www.jpost.com/arab-israeli-conflict/18-years-after-sbarro-suicide-attack-pa-has-paid-910823-to-the-culprits-598106">bombing of a Sbarro pizzeria</a>, killing 15 civilians, including 7 children and a pregnant woman.

Extending to the classroom and beyond, Bazian has co-founded two anti-Israel groups: <a href="https://canarymission.org/organization/SJP">Students for Justice in Palestine</a> (SJP), and American Muslims for Palestine (AMP).

Bazian co-founded SJP with fellow professor <a href="https://professorwatchlist.org/professor/snehalshingavi">Snehal Shingavi</a> in 2001 in solidarity with Palestinian groups, as the Intifada raged in Israel. The group is known for its belligerent tactics and hostility towards Jewish and pro-Israel students on campus. SJP openly calls for the destruction of Israel and has never been shy about their support for Hamas. <a href="https://canarymission.org/individual/Azka_Fayyaz">A student senator and member of SJP</a> at UC Davis <a href="https://www.timesofisrael.com/new-film-depicts-jewish-students-growing-insecurity-on-campus/">welcomed “Hamas and sharia law"</a> to campus.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SF2qAJl65k&amp;ab_channel=CanaryMission">American Muslims for Palestine</a>, of which Bazian serves as Chairman, is rooted in the now-defunct Islamic Association for Palestine (IAP). Facing scrutiny by the federal government over its ties to overseas jihadist groups, IAP ceased operations in 2003 to avoid prosecution. Many of the staff then <a href="https://docs.house.gov/meetings/FA/FA18/20160419/104817/HHRG-114-FA18-Wstate-SchanzerJ-20160419.pdf">reconstituted under the new banner of AMP with Bazian as Chairman</a>. Screenshots from IAP’s former website show that the group openly encouraged Islamic terrorism and what can only be described as ethnic cleansing of Jews.

Bazian is a tenured professor at one of the world’s most prestigious colleges. Tens of thousands of students have passed through his classroom while accruing many thousands more in debt, over his many decades in academia. His radicalism isn’t hidden—Bazian has openly embraced and preached the most radical, violent, and bigoted positions imaginable and sought to inspire future leaders with those same values.

&nbsp;
UPDATE - May 27, 2022
A previous edition that attributed a quote to Hatem Bazian has been corrected and attributed to an article hosted on the IAP website in December, 2000

<a href="https://www.law.berkeley.edu/our-faculty/faculty-profiles/john-powell/">John A. Powell</a> is a Professor of Law at the University of California, Berkeley. During a<a href="http://www.whiteprivilegeconference.com/"> White Privilege Conference</a>, Powell was caught on film saying that the Bush Administration deliberately took money away from strengthening the levees during Hurricane Katrina because the levees were protecting black people.

<a href="https://vcresearch.berkeley.edu/faculty/nancy-scheper-hughes">Nancy Scheper-Hughes</a> is the Chancellor’s Professor Emerita in the Department of Anthropology at the University of California, Berkely. Her university biography <a href="https://vcresearch.berkeley.edu/faculty/nancy-scheper-hughes">states</a> that Scheper-Hughes approaches her work through a “politically engaged perspective” to examine “structural and political violence.”

&nbsp;
Anti-Second Amendment 
Immediately following the Pulse nightclub shooting, in which a Muslim man who pledged allegiance to ISIS <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/US/multiple-injuries-shooting-orlando-nightclub-police/story?id=39789552">entered Pulse, a gay nightclub, and opened fire, killing 50 individuals</a>, Scheper-Hughes <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20160621134259/http://blogs.berkeley.edu/2016/06/19/radical-evil-a-reflection-on-the-orlando-massacre/">published</a> an article on the Berkeley Blog, a university website, to reflect on the events of the previous evening, titled, Radical evil: A reflection on the Orlando massacre.

In her article, Hughes <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20160621134259/http://blogs.berkeley.edu/2016/06/19/radical-evil-a-reflection-on-the-orlando-massacre/">describes</a> the Pulse nightclub as a “sacred space” that was attacked by a man she describes as “radically evil.” However, she then blames the killings on hate speech of the “trumpers'' and the <a href="https://home.nra.org/">National Rifle Association</a>.

Referring to the Second Amendment in the post, Scheper-Hughes <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20160621134259/http://blogs.berkeley.edu/2016/06/19/radical-evil-a-reflection-on-the-orlando-massacre/">states</a> that we have “failed as a democracy” to let “one amendment trump” all other amendments, leading to killings like the one in Orlando. She alleges that massacres throughout American history are typically committed by “orthodox conservatives” that suffer from a "perversity of heart."

Censorship
In mid-2017, the Berkely College Republicans <a href="https://twitter.com/BerkeleyCRs/status/884816647546064896">announced</a> on the group's Twitter account that they would host popular commentator Ben Shapiro. In an article for the website, CounterPunch, Scheper-Hughes <a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2017/09/13/the-great-wall-of-uc-berkeley-vs-baby-face-shapiro/">decries</a> the decision to host Shapiro at the university, describing him as a “smart aleck, wisecracking, racist, sexist, misogynist, Islamophobic jerk.” She goes on to describe Shapiro as a “very dangerous, extremely controversial, physical threat” to Berkeley’s student body.

Scheper-Hughes further <a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2017/09/13/the-great-wall-of-uc-berkeley-vs-baby-face-shapiro/">describes</a> Ben Shapiro in her article as a member of the “alt-light” that engages in hate speech. Hughes states that the First Amendment is a “work in progress” and that the amendment is “ignorant” and inadequately able to combat “hate speech.”

<img class="wp-image-1274 size-large aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-04-09T095657.035-e1617987455517-1024x299.png" alt="" width="580" height="169" />

While acknowledging that the university is “stuck” with the protections that the First Amendment affords Ben Shapiro, Scheper-Hughes implies that free speech can be regulated to ban hate speech.

The Professor Watchlist team reached out to Scheper-Hughes for comment but has not received a reply by the time of publication.

<a href="http://rhetoric.berkeley.edu/faculty-profile/james-i-porter-1">Dr. James Porter</a>, a Professor of Rhetoric at the University of California, Berkely and formerly of the University of California, Irvine, was one of 60 professors who supported the ban of the American flag from an "inclusive" area at UC Irvine. He signed a letter claiming that the American flag is a symbol of nationalism and racism.

<a href="https://ethnicstudies.berkeley.edu/people/ramon-grosfoguel-1/">Ramon Grosfoguel</a> is an associate professor of Chicano and Latino Studies at the University of California, Berkeley. According to his university biography, Grosfoguel also specializes in decoloniality and the study of Islamophobia.

Grosfoguel is notable for his vocal opposition to the state of Israel and support for BDS. In an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bu1PCTNGgB8&amp;ab_channel=IHRCtv">interview</a> with the Islamic Human Rights Commission during Al-Quds Day (an <a href="https://www.timesofisrael.com/on-quds-day-irans-leader-says-zionism-a-virus-that-must-be-eliminated/">Iranian holiday</a> dedicated to the destruction of Israel) not only did he claim that Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinians, but that Israel is a threat to peace across the world. Grosfoguel claimed that Israel is infiltrating nations and aligning itself with openly fascist organizations in order to strangle freedom of speech.

Grosfoguel also claims that Jews <a href="https://www.okcir.com/Articles%20VII%202/Grosfoguel-FM.pdf">cynically use the Holocaust</a> to elicit sympathy from the world in order to commit atrocities against Arabs;

“The simplistic identity politics of the Holocaust hegemonic narrative that essentialized Jewish identity as homogenous eternal victims and always intentionally innocent ended with Gaza.”   

“These simplistic and reductionist narratives about the Holocaust and Jewish identity were exploited by the Zionists for the last 60 years to legitimate their fundamentalist Jewish state built upon the practices and methods of settler colonialism against the Palestinians.”                  

“Hitlerism as a continuation of colonial racist ideology came back to hunt Palestinians this time at the hands of European Jews who ironically were escaping from the Nazi Holocaust.” 

“...the Holocaust was always manipulated, abused, and institutionalized by the Israeli settler colonialist state from its foundation in 1948 until today to justify its colonial domination, expansion, and terror.”

Grosfoguel specializes in anti-colonial rhetoric. Rather than a past vestige, Grosfoguel maintains that colonialism is an ongoing attempt by Western nations—particularly Israel and the United States, to maintain dominance throughout the world. Grosfoguel lectures that the capitalistic, Christian-centered West is able to bleed poorer nations dry to maintain their wealth. He claims that Christianity itself has given rise to genocides around the world, as <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Z8ISZolAMw&amp;ab_channel=IHRCtv=2m4s">“pre-modern” societies were far more peaceful</a> than modern, Western nations.

To Grosfoguel, the concept of human rights is a Western farce that is used to justify foreign invasions. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7jFaJf-aVE&amp;ab_channel=IHRCtv=9m46s">He has claimed</a> that America is a “rogue state” that has murdered upwards of 70 million people.

“Here comes the quintessential rogue state in the world, USA, calling other nations rogue states….This is really amazing, because this country, the last 60 years, has killed more than 70 million people.”  

In the same lecture, he held nothing back when grotesquely claiming that former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfield <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7jFaJf-aVE&amp;ab_channel=IHRCtv=7m0s">should have been put to death</a> alongside Sadam Hussein for his crimes as an imperialist:

“So Donald Rumsfield should have been sitting alongside Sadam Hussein and been judged, ok? And been hanged together with him.”  

Grosfoguel travels frequently to speak about his views on decolonization and is renowned among the Left for his views on the subject. In 2018, he was invited to deliver <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pwX2ZQl0C0&amp;t=3173s&amp;ab_channel=LuiginoBracciRoa-Situaci%C3%B3nenVenezuela">opening remarks</a> addressing this topic at a Caracas-based conference hosted by Nicholas Maduro. Grosfoguel was well received at the conference and can be seen warmly greeting the dictator below.

<a href="https://ethnicstudies.berkeley.edu/people/keith-feldman-1/">Keith Feldman</a> is a head graduate advisor and an associate professor of Comparative Ethnic Studies at the University of California-Berkeley.

Speaking before the Berkeley-based conference Critical Discourses on Islamophobia, Feldman reserved most of his speech to criticize Barack Obama for killing jihadists. Labeling the administration’s <a href="https://www.meforum.org/campus-watch/20132/uc-berkeley-and-the-islamophobia-lobby">use of drones to eliminate terrorists as Islamaphobic</a>—or what he termed as “racialization from above—he asked, “What happens when Islamophobia takes to the skies?”

Feldman compared the death of Osama bin Laden to a Jim Crow-era lynching. As he was describing his killing as the “residue of late nineteenth-century colonial settler violence,” Feldman <a href="https://www.meforum.org/campus-watch/20132/uc-berkeley-and-the-islamophobia-lobby">displayed a black lynching victim in the background to serve as an analogy to his death.</a>

In 2015 while discussing his book, <a href="https://www.upress.umn.edu/book-division/books/a-shadow-over-palestine">A Shadow Over Palestine</a>, he claimed that <a href="https://www.meforum.org/campus-watch/22864/berkeley-prof-race-in-america-is-like-occupation">American ghettos are akin to the Warsaw ghetto</a> during the Holocaust, which itself is akin to modern-day Palestinian refugee camps.

Feldman’s book praises the <a href="https://www.meforum.org/7244/a-radical-romance-with-the-palestinians">United World Conference Against Racism</a> held in Durban, South Africa. <a href="https://www.jpost.com/opinion/op-ed-contributors/durban-and-911-ten-years-later">The gathering is notorious for its antisemitism</a>, with vendors <a href="https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/durban-i-un-conference-against-racism-2001">selling the conspiratorial</a> ‘Protocols of the Elders of Zion’ and displaying banners that read ‘What if Hitler Had Won?’ Feldman praises this conference for uniting “hundreds” of NGOs to declare that “Zionism is racism.”

<a href="https://gse.berkeley.edu/zeus-leonardo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Zeus Leonardo</a> is a Professor in the<a href="https://gse.berkeley.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Graduate School of Education</a> at the University of <a href="https://www.berkeley.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">California-Berkeley</a>. According to his university profile, Dr. Leonardo’s courses include: “Race, Whiteness Studies, and Education” and “Proseminar: Social Critique of Education.” Much of Dr. Leonardo’s work utilizes critical race theory to analyze areas such as race, class, culture, and gender in education.

Dr. Leonardo is also listed as an Affiliated Faculty Member of the Critical Theory Designated Emphasis at UC Berkeley. As part of the Graduate School of Education, the program explores the “<a href="https://gse.berkeley.edu/academics/ma-and-phd-programs/critical-studies-race-class-and-gender" target="_blank" rel="noopener">root causes and effects of white supremacy and settler colonialism in education</a>,” according to the official website.

Upon completion, those enrolled will earn a certification of “Designated Emphasis and Specialization in Critical Theory.” The university flaunts critical theory’s association with the Frankfurt School of Economics on its website. The Frankfurt School of Economics was <a href="https://www.heritage.org/sites/default/files/2020-12/BG3567.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">composed of openly Marxist economists whose writings eventually formed the basis for critical race theory</a>.

<a href="http://criticaltheory.berkeley.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The page prominently hosts a picture of Angela Davis</a> alongside the post-modernist, <a href="https://fee.org/articles/herbert-marcuse-the-philosopher-behind-the-ideology-of-the-anti-fascists/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Herbert Marcuse</a>. Davis was a member of the Leninist-Black Panther Party as well as the <a href="https://www.fbi.gov/wanted/topten/topten-history/hires_images/FBI-309-AngelaYvonneDavis.jpg/viewhttps://www.fbi.gov/wanted/topten/topten-history/hires_images/FBI-309-AngelaYvonneDavis.jpg/view" target="_blank" rel="noopener">FBI’s Ten Most Wanted Fugitives</a> list for her role in the shooting deaths of four during the Marin County Civic Center Attacks.

As <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2012/03/11/what-is-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ben Shapiro writes in Breitbart News</a>, critical race theory is an intellectual branch of Marxism that views America and all of its institutions as being infected with white supremacy—to the point of some, including <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/nikolehannahjones" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nikole Hannah-Jones</a>, even <a href="https://reason.com/2020/09/23/1619-project-nikole-hannah-jones-1776-founding-race-new-york-times/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claiming</a> America’s real founding was in 1619 when the first slave stepped foot in North America, and not 1776 when the American colonies declared independence from England.

Dr. Leonardo has additionally published a number of other articles on critical race theory, race, and education. These include titles such as, “<a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/23793406.2016.1167111?journalCode=rree20" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tropics of Whiteness</a>,” “<a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/01596306.2013.822624" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Story of Schooling: Critical Theory and the Educational Racial Contract</a>,” and, “<a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/13613320120117180" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Souls of White Folk</a>.” Another is titled, “<a href="https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/mono/10.4324/9780203880371/race-whiteness-education-zeus-leonardo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Race, Whiteness, and Education</a>,” in which he affirms the “central role” racism plays in society.

Dr. Leonardo declares racism to be systematic rather than based on individuals and must be addressed as such. He outlines the paper’s intent to interrupt this “dangerous” assertion in order to confront “whiteness” and racism in education. Further, in the same paper, Dr. Leonardo advocates the blending of Marxism and whiteness studies to understand racism. He then addresses the “myth” that whites do not think of themselves exclusively along with racial terms and that capitalism has spread “whiteness” across the globe.

In a separate lecture, Dr. Leonardo lauds critical race theory in even more explicit terms. In a lecture titled, “Who is afraid of CRT?” hosted at George Washington University, the event was <a href="https://gwtoday.gwu.edu/who%E2%80%99s-afraid-critical-race-theory-and-what-exactly-it-anyway" target="_blank" rel="noopener">marketed as an examination of “critical race theory, marxism, and whiteness studies</a>”.

In the lecture, Dr. Leonardo states the intent of his work in whiteness studies is to solve the problem of “whiteness” itself.

“In whiteness studies, whiteness is  the problem to be posed, if not solved.”

In another clip–captured by the Twitter user, <a href="https://twitter.com/MythinformedMKE" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mythinformed MYKE</a>—Dr. Leonardo states, “whites are not born white,” rather, they are “abused’ by their white parents and raised that way.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Recommended reading from the professor of education at Berkeley includes concepts such as “white people are not born white”.

<a href="http://www.faculty.uci.edu/profile.cfm?faculty_id=2731">Richard Symanski </a>is a Senior Lecturer at the University of California, Irvine. In one of Symanski's introductory-level Biological Science courses, Symanski was caught on film telling the class that they should all get on the bandwagon to get guns outlawed in the wake of the San Bernardino shooting.

<a href="https://www.law.uci.edu/faculty/full-time/baradaran/">Mehrsa Baradaran</a> is a professor of law at the University of California, Irvine. According to her <a href="https://www.law.uci.edu/faculty/full-time/baradaran/">university bio</a>, Baradaran previously served as Associate Dean for Strategic Initiatives, focusing on diversity and inclusion efforts. Baradaran is the author of “<a href="https://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?isbn=9780674286061">How the Other Half Banks</a>,” and, “<a href="https://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?isbn=9780674237476">The Color of Money</a>.”
Identity Politics 
Baradaran equates capitalism with white supremacy. In addition to advocating for defunding police departments, Baradaran believes that reparations to the black community are the only way to address racism in America.
In an <a href="https://www.huffpost.com/entry/us-needs-reparations-black-americans_n_5ede5dfbc5b6fb8854dd8d00">interview with HuffPost</a>, Baradaran details her stance on reparations for the black community.  As noted in the article, Baradaran was asked by a Twitter user what her solution would be to solve racial unrest, in which she responded, “Reparations.” Baradaran had previously used her <a href="https://twitter.com/MehrsaBaradaran">Twitter account</a> to advocate for reparations and urge presidential candidates, including Vice-President Kamala Harris, to adopt them as a policy.

In the same interview with HuffPost, Baradaran states that America “broke a contract with black America,” and thus reparations are the only way to provide relief to minorities. When asked what this would look like, Baradaran references her previous proposal, the <a href="https://greatdemocracyinitiative.org/document/21st-century-homestead-act/">21st Century Homestead Act</a>. The act would implement, among other things, a “progressive” tax system, school reform, regulating corporations, the “wholesale transfer” of land to black men and women, and monetary reparations.

The interview continues with Baradaran describing the act of policing as deeply racist and based on “policing black freedom” in the South during the Jim Crow era. Before comparing police and police departments to cancer, Baradaran advocates for the complete defunding of police.

<img class="size-large wp-image-1184 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-03-19T095857.120-e1616173187985-1024x430.png" alt="" width="580" height="244" />

In a separate thread of tweets, Baradaran <a href="https://twitter.com/MehrsaBaradaran/status/1157704441950167040">equates</a> capitalism with white supremacy.

In addition to her position, the Biden administration <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article?id=16192">appointed</a> Baradaran to the Department of the Treasury agency review board.

The Professor Watchlist team reached out to Mehrsa Baradaran regarding our assessment that she states that reparations will heal America’s “original sin of racism,” that she urged major presidential candidates to adopt reparations, that she’s stated capitalism in based on white supremacy, and that she stated that the “cancer” in police departments must be treated to stop police killings.

Baradaran's response:"The first two statements are a bit of a misreading of my statements, but the last two statements are not statements I’ve ever made. That last statement—I don’t even think that so I am sure I never said it." -Baradaran

<a href="https://amed.sfsu.edu/content/rabab-abdulhadi-profile">Rabab Abdulhadi</a> is a professor of Arab &amp; Muslim Ethnicities &amp; Diasporas and  Race &amp; Resistance Studies at San Francisco State University.
Abdullah is <a href="https://canarymission.org/professor/Rabab_Abdulhadi">regarded</a> as a virulently anti-Israel activist. At a UCLA lecture, she equated support for Israel with <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=13849">white supremacy</a>, and reportedly asked Jewish Israel supporters to distance themselves from “white supremacy.”
In 2018, Abdullhadi declared that Zionists are not welcome at SFSU in a lengthy Facebook <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=13849">post.</a>

In a July 2017 article, The College Fix reported that Dr. Graubart <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/professor-annoyed-groundswell-good-wishes-john-mccain-calls-war-criminal/">condemned Senator McCain as a “war criminal</a>” and someone who “has championed horrifying actions” in a now-deleted Facebook post on his personal account. <a href="https://www.johnmccain.com/">John McCain</a> was a United States Senator from Arizona who <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/john-mccain-dead-at-81">served as a Navy pilot and was a prisoner of war</a> during the Vietnam War. He died in August of 2018 after a battle with brain cancer.
In the now-deleted Facebook post, Dr. Graubart stated that <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/professor-annoyed-groundswell-good-wishes-john-mccain-calls-war-criminal/">he found himself “annoyed at the groundswell of good wishes for John McCain after his diagnosis of glioblastoma” (brain cancer).</a>.” His comment was posted <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/lawmakers-send-wishes-john-mccain-brain-tumor-announcement/story?id=48736469">just after John McCain announced his cancer diagnosis</a>.

ABC 10 News San Diego reported in July 2018 that an unnamed SDSU spokesman released a statement <a href="https://www.10news.com/news/san-diego-state-professor-makes-controversial-facebook-post">referring to Dr. Graubart’s post about McCain as “private speech”</a> that cannot be regulated. The spokesman also states that it does not “endorse” his views, nor does it have a social media policy for faculty members.
“SDSU does not have a social media policy for faculty and staff. As a public institution, we do not and cannot regulate the private speech of students, faculty or staff. However, that should not imply the university&#8217;s endorsement of any particular viewpoint”
In a statement to Fox News later in 2017, Dr. Graubart stated that he posted the remarks on his private Facebook account, and therefore <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/professor-calls-mccain-a-war-criminal-annoyed-at-well-wishes-after-senators-brain-cancer-diagnosis">were written in an “off-the-cuff manner”</a> and not with a “large public in mind.”

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

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

Dr. Anderson regularly lectures at colleges and universities across the country. In 2021, it was discovered that Dr. Anderson’s work had been <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/politics/gop-army-vet-congressman-seeks-answers-critical-race-theory-west-point" target="_blank" rel="noopener">featured in a lecture by the Army Cyber Institute at West Point University</a>.

<a href="https://www.colorado.edu/ethnicstudies/people/core-faculty/reiland-rabaka" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Reiland Rabaka</a> is a Professor of Africana Studies as well as Critical Race, Class, Gender, and Sexuality Studies in the <a href="https://www.colorado.edu/ethnicstudies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Department of Ethnic Studies</a> at the <a href="https://www.colorado.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of Colorado at Boulder</a>. He also serves as <a href="https://www.colorado.edu/humanities/reiland-rabaka" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Professor of Humanities</a> in the <a href="https://www.colorado.edu/artsandsciences/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">College of Arts and Sciences</a>.
Dr. Rabaka identifies publicly as a “democratic socialist” and a scholar of fields such as “black radical politics,” decolonial theory, and critical race theory. His lectures depict the United States as an inherently white-supremacist nation and herald the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement as a necessary counter to systematic racism.
In a video sponsored by the university, Dr. Rabaka describes American society as having <a href="https://www.coursera.org/lecture/antiracism-2/dr-reiland-rabaka-interventions-in-racist-terminologies-qp12a" target="_blank" rel="noopener">culminated in the “social, economic, spiritual, and cultural” death of black people</a>. He attributes this to our nation&#8217;s alleged addiction to “black death.”
<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/2021/10/Rabaka-America-is-addicted-to-Black-Death.mp4?_=5" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Rabaka-America-is-addicted-to-Black-Death.mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Rabaka-America-is-addicted-to-Black-Death.mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
He repeated this accusation during a lecture for Florida Gulf Coast University’s <a href="https://www.fgcu.edu/ccres/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Center for Critical Race and Ethnic Studies</a>. During the event—hosted by professor and the Center Director, <a href="https://www.fgcu.edu/directory/tthornhill">Dr. Ted Thornill</a>—Dr. Rabaka <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsS6RAfiesI&amp;ab_channel=FGCUUniversityMarketingCommunications" target="_blank" rel="noopener">characterizes the nation as a “colonial project” that was built on racial and economic enslavement</a>.
To learn more about Dr. Thornhill, readers can view his <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/tedthornhill" target="_blank" rel="noopener">profile on TPUSA’s Professor Watchlist</a>.
Dr. Rabaka addresses BLM at length during the Q&amp;A section, characterizing the movement as a response to the nation’s “deeply entrenched racism.” At one point, a member of the audience asks Dr. Rabaka how he would respond if BLM was characterized as a terrorist organization; Rather than answer the question, he proceeds to deflect and counter that Christopher Columbus should be considered a terrorist for committing a “holocaust” against Native Americans. He denounces both the Founding Fathers and Pilgrims in his tirade, accusing each of participating in “racial terrorism.”
<div style="width: 640px;" class="wp-video"><video class="wp-video-shortcode" id="video-0-6" width="640" height="360" preload="metadata" controls="controls"><source type="video/mp4" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Rabaka-the-Pilgrims-are-terrorists.mp4?_=6" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Rabaka-the-Pilgrims-are-terrorists.mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Rabaka-the-Pilgrims-are-terrorists.mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
Continuing, he urges “white administrators” to invest in BLM-themed curriculums and workshops in order to raise consciousness about the movement. Dr. Rabaka <a href="https://www.colorado.edu/asmagazine/2021/03/02/black-lives-matter-course-aims-foster-campus-transformation" target="_blank" rel="noopener">personally teaches a BLM-themed course at UC-Boulder</a>.
BLM was <a href="https://blacklivesmatter.com/six-years-strong/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">founded following the death</a> of Treyvon Martin and the acquittal of George Zimmerman for his murder. Although purporting to be a civil-rights organization, the movement has been tied to violent confrontations and riots across the country.
According to a <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">study conducted by the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED)</a>, BLM can be linked to 95% of the riots around the country–notably in Summer 2020 following the death of George Floyd. In an analysis of the study, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Federalist</a> found, “of the 633 incidents coded as riots, 88 percent are recorded as involving Black Lives Matter Activists.” The resulting riots were the largest in American history, <a href="https://fee.org/articles/george-floyd-riots-caused-record-setting-2-billion-in-damage-new-report-says-here-s-why-the-true-cost-is-even-higher/#:~:text=Only%20now%20are%20we%20beginning,%241%20billion%20to%20%242%20billion." target="_blank" rel="noopener">causing an estimated $2 billion in damages and 47 deaths.</a>
Throughout his lecture, Dr. Rabaka praises Angela Davis and Assata Shakur, whose work he considers instrumental to the BLM movement. Shakur is a former <a href="https://spectatorworld.com/topic/black-lives-matter-praising-terrorist-assata-shakur/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">member of the Black Liberation Army and convicted cop killer</a>. She currently resides in Cuba as a guest of the communist government; authorities have offered 2 million dollars for her capture.
Angela Davis is a former vice-presidential candidate for the Communist Party and early member of the Black Panther Party. Davis is notoriously known for <a href="https://archives.frontpagemag.com/fpm/hollywoods-undying-love-communist-angela-davis-arnold-ahlert/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">her role in the Marin County Civic Center Attack, which left 4 dead</a>.
To learn more about Angela Davis, users can view her <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/angeladavis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">profile on TPUSA’s Professor Watchlist</a>.
Another individual Dr. Rabaka praises in his lecture is scholar W.E.B Du Bois. A prominent author at the turn of the 20th century, Du Bois was a life-long adherent to communism, going <a href="https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/stalin/biographies/1953/03/16.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">so far as to eulogize Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin after his death in 1953</a>.
In a separate lecture at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Reiland+Rabaka+" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Rabaka lauds Du Bois specifically for his contributions to socialism</a>. At one point, the professor displays pictures of Du Bois meeting with Nikita Khrushchev and Mao Zedong, hailing both as proof of Du Bois international standing.
<div style="width: 640px;" class="wp-video"><video class="wp-video-shortcode" id="video-0-7" width="640" height="360" preload="metadata" controls="controls"><source type="video/mp4" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Rabka-Du-Bois-and-Mao-.mp4?_=7" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Rabka-Du-Bois-and-Mao-.mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Rabka-Du-Bois-and-Mao-.mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
<a href="https://www.britannica.com/biography/Mao-Zedong">Mao</a>—who chaired the Chinese Communist Party from 1935 until his death in 1976—is widely considered one of the deadliest heads of state in history–<a href="https://www.heritage.org/asia/commentary/the-legacy-mao-zedong-mass-murder" target="_blank" rel="noopener">an estimated 65 million Chinese perished from his regime</a>. Mao&#8217;s deadliest campaign—referred to as the “Great Leap Forward”—<a href="https://www.hudson.org/research/7342-mao-s-great-leap-forward-and-the-power-of-history" target="_blank" rel="noopener">caused an estimated 40 million to die from starvation and overwork in labor camps</a>.
All three lectures are listed at the bottom of the profile in full.

Dr. <a href="https://www.colorado.edu/ethnicstudies/people/core-faculty/jennifer-ho">Jennifer Ho</a> is a Professor of Asian American Studies and Director of the Center for Humanities &amp; the Arts at the University of Colorado-Boulder. According to her university <a href="https://www.colorado.edu/ethnicstudies/people/core-faculty/jennifer-ho">biography</a>, Professor Ho’s research interests include cultural studies, intersectionality, critical race studies, anti-racist theory, and critical mixed race studies.

Critical Theory, or Critical Race Theory, is an intellectual branch of Marxism that alleges American society and all of its founding institutions are infected with white supremacy. Furthermore, proponents of Critical Race Theory believe that people should take proactive steps to dismantle these institutions in the name of equity, which is also referred to as being “anti-racist.” Some Critical Race Theorists, such as Nikole Hannah-Jones, also <a href="https://reason.com/2020/09/23/1619-project-nikole-hannah-jones-1776-founding-race-new-york-times/">claim</a> that America’s real founding was in 1619 when the first slave stepped foot in North America, and not 1776 when the American colonies declared independence from England.

In an <a href="https://theconversation.com/white-supremacy-is-the-root-of-all-race-related-violence-in-the-us-157566">article</a> for The Conversation, titled, “White Supremacy is the Root of all race-related violence in the US,” Professor Ho alleges that all hate crimes committed in the United States are the result of white supremacy. The article is her response to the March 16th, 2021 <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/3-dead-shooting-georgia-massage-parlor-suspect-loose-n1261262">mass shooting</a> of massage parlors in Atlanta, George, that killed eight people, six of them being Asian-Americans.

Professor Ho attributes not just the March 2021 Atlanta shootings to white supremacy, but she actually attributes all hate crimes to white supremacy, regardless of whether or not they were committed by a white person. In the same <a href="https://theconversation.com/white-supremacy-is-the-root-of-all-race-related-violence-in-the-us-157566">article</a>, Professor Ho lists a series of anti-Asian hate crimes perpetrated by black men before stating that white supremacy is the cause for all of them.

<img class="size-large wp-image-1381 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-05-24T162337.311-e1621898679178-1024x381.png" alt="" width="580" height="216" />

Professor Ho further <a href="https://theconversation.com/white-supremacy-is-the-root-of-all-race-related-violence-in-the-us-157566">describes</a> white supremacy as an ideology “ingrained” into American institutions and the driving force behind the dehumanizing of Asian-Americans as well Black Americans.

The University of Colorado-Boulder features Professor Ho’s work on the College of Arts and Science’s website, in a <a href="https://www.colorado.edu/asmagazine/2020/04/08/anti-asian-racism-and-covid-19">web page</a> titled, “Anti-Asian Racism and Covid-19”. In addition to claiming that “millions” of unarmed black men have been killed by police, Professor Ho also alleges that it is also racist to state that COVID-19 originated in China.

Professor Ho also co-<a href="https://www.coursera.org/learn/antiracism-1#instructors">teaches</a> a class on anti-racism, titled, “Anti-Racism l”. According to the description of the course, participants will learn the following from Professor Ho:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How to critically discuss “Whiteness.”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Recognize that all white people possess white privilege.</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How the history of racism in the United States has created racial hierarchies that still exist.</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">The true foundations of the United States are that of “settler colonialism."</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How white supremacy benefits white people.</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Why the phrases, “All Lives Matter” and “Blue Lives Matter” are racist.</li>
</ul>

<a href="https://www.colorado.edu/ethnicstudies/people/core-faculty/reiland-rabaka" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Reiland Rabaka</a> is a Professor of Africana Studies as well as Critical Race, Class, Gender, and Sexuality Studies in the <a href="https://www.colorado.edu/ethnicstudies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Department of Ethnic Studies</a> at the <a href="https://www.colorado.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of Colorado at Boulder</a>. He also serves as <a href="https://www.colorado.edu/humanities/reiland-rabaka" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Professor of Humanities</a> in the <a href="https://www.colorado.edu/artsandsciences/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">College of Arts and Sciences</a>.

Dr. Rabaka identifies publicly as a “democratic socialist” and a scholar of fields such as “black radical politics,” decolonial theory, and critical race theory. His lectures depict the United States as an inherently white-supremacist nation and herald the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement as a necessary counter to systematic racism.

In a video sponsored by the university, Dr. Rabaka describes American society as having <a href="https://www.coursera.org/lecture/antiracism-2/dr-reiland-rabaka-interventions-in-racist-terminologies-qp12a" target="_blank" rel="noopener">culminated in the “social, economic, spiritual, and cultural” death of black people</a>. He attributes this to our nation's alleged addiction to “black death.”

&nbsp;

He repeated this accusation during a lecture for Florida Gulf Coast University’s <a href="https://www.fgcu.edu/ccres/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Center for Critical Race and Ethnic Studies</a>. During the event—hosted by professor and the Center Director, <a href="https://www.fgcu.edu/directory/tthornhill">Dr. Ted Thornill</a>—Dr. Rabaka <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsS6RAfiesI&amp;ab_channel=FGCUUniversityMarketingCommunications" target="_blank" rel="noopener">characterizes the nation as a “colonial project” that was built on racial and economic enslavement</a>.

Dr. Rabaka addresses BLM at length during the Q&amp;A section, characterizing the movement as a response to the nation’s “deeply entrenched racism.” At one point, a member of the audience asks Dr. Rabaka how he would respond if BLM was characterized as a terrorist organization; Rather than answer the question, he proceeds to deflect and counter that Christopher Columbus should be considered a terrorist for committing a “holocaust” against Native Americans. He denounces both the Founding Fathers and Pilgrims in his tirade, accusing each of participating in “racial terrorism.”

[video width="960" height="540" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Rabaka-the-Pilgrims-are-terrorists.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

Continuing, he urges “white administrators” to invest in BLM-themed curriculums and workshops in order to raise consciousness about the movement. Dr. Rabaka <a href="https://www.colorado.edu/asmagazine/2021/03/02/black-lives-matter-course-aims-foster-campus-transformation" target="_blank" rel="noopener">personally teaches a BLM-themed course at UC-Boulder</a>.

BLM was <a href="https://blacklivesmatter.com/six-years-strong/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">founded following the death</a> of Treyvon Martin and the acquittal of George Zimmerman for his murder. Although purporting to be a civil-rights organization, the movement has been tied to violent confrontations and riots across the country.

According to a <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">study conducted by the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED)</a>, BLM can be linked to 95% of the riots around the country–notably in Summer 2020 following the death of George Floyd. In an analysis of the study, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Federalist</a> found, “of the 633 incidents coded as riots, 88 percent are recorded as involving Black Lives Matter Activists.” The resulting riots were the largest in American history, <a href="https://fee.org/articles/george-floyd-riots-caused-record-setting-2-billion-in-damage-new-report-says-here-s-why-the-true-cost-is-even-higher/#:~:text=Only%20now%20are%20we%20beginning,%241%20billion%20to%20%242%20billion." target="_blank" rel="noopener">causing an estimated $2 billion in damages and 47 deaths.</a>

Throughout his lecture, Dr. Rabaka praises Angela Davis and Assata Shakur, whose work he considers instrumental to the BLM movement. Shakur is a former <a href="https://spectatorworld.com/topic/black-lives-matter-praising-terrorist-assata-shakur/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">member of the Black Liberation Army and convicted cop killer</a>. She currently resides in Cuba as a guest of the communist government; authorities have offered 2 million dollars for her capture.

Angela Davis is a former vice-presidential candidate for the Communist Party and early member of the Black Panther Party. Davis is notoriously known for <a href="https://archives.frontpagemag.com/fpm/hollywoods-undying-love-communist-angela-davis-arnold-ahlert/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">her role in the Marin County Civic Center Attack, which left 4 dead</a>.

To learn more about Angela Davis, users can view her <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/angeladavis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">profile on TPUSA’s Professor Watchlist</a>.

Another individual Dr. Rabaka praises in his lecture is scholar W.E.B Du Bois. A prominent author at the turn of the 20th century, Du Bois was a life-long adherent to communism, going <a href="https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/stalin/biographies/1953/03/16.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">so far as to eulogize Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin after his death in 1953</a>.

In a separate lecture at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Reiland+Rabaka+" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Rabaka lauds Du Bois specifically for his contributions to socialism</a>. At one point, the professor displays pictures of Du Bois meeting with Nikita Khrushchev and Mao Zedong, hailing both as proof of Du Bois international standing.

[video width="960" height="540" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Rabka-Du-Bois-and-Mao-.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.britannica.com/biography/Mao-Zedong">Mao</a>—who chaired the Chinese Communist Party from 1935 until his death in 1976—is widely considered one of the deadliest heads of state in history–<a href="https://www.heritage.org/asia/commentary/the-legacy-mao-zedong-mass-murder" target="_blank" rel="noopener">an estimated 65 million Chinese perished from his regime</a>. Mao's deadliest campaign—referred to as the “Great Leap Forward”—<a href="https://www.hudson.org/research/7342-mao-s-great-leap-forward-and-the-power-of-history" target="_blank" rel="noopener">caused an estimated 40 million to die from starvation and overwork in labor camps</a>.

All three lectures are listed at the bottom of the profile in full.

The Professor Watchlist Team reached out to Dr. Rabaka for comment but has not received a response by the time of publication.

Peter Beinart

<a href="https://www.journalism.cuny.edu/faculty/peter-beinart/">Peter Beinart</a> is a Professor of Journalism and Political Science at the City University of New York. He is known as an active critic of the state Israel, supports the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) campaign, and blames Hamas terrorism on the state of Israel.
Beinart has <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/19/opinion/to-save-israel-boycott-the-settlements.html?_r=1&amp;ref=opinion&amp;pagewanted=all">advocated</a> for the BDS movement to serve as a way to influence Israeli policy making. Beinart has gone so far as to suggest sanctions be put on any products made by Israelis in the West Bank. 
While a fierce critic of Israel, Beinart often excuses Islamic terrorism as understandable and morally equivalent counter-reaction to Israel. In fact, he even goes so far in his book, The Crisis of Zionism, to complement the terrorist organization Hamas. He writes, “[Hamas] has in recent years issued several new documents, which are more compatible with a two-state solution.” 
In a <a href="https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2019/08/19/rich-lowry-peter-beinart-debate-omar-tlaib-israel-trip-sot-lead-vpx.cnn">viral</a> debate with National Review editor Rich Lowry, Beinart was quick to defend Congresswomen Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar after they had been denied entry into Israel on account for their support of the BDS movement. When Lowry pointed out that each were traveling with known extremist groups that support terrorism, Beinart began frantically shouting over Lowry, claiming that terrorism is only response to the violenct Israel perpetrates.
Recently, Beinart wrote in the <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/08/opinion/israel-annexation-two-state-solution.html">New York Times</a> that he no longer believes that Israel has the right to exist as a Jewish State.

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.

Josh Thompson is a High School English Teacher at <a href="https://bhs.mcps.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Blacksburg High School</a> in Montgomery County, Virginia.
In a series of videos, Mr. Thompson describes how teaching students to behave is emblematic of white supremacy. At the time, Mr. Thompson was discussing the adoption of PBIS (Positive Behavior Interventions and Support) materials by the district to improve behaviors.
Published by the satirical Twitter account, “Libs of Tik-Tok,” Mr. Thompson alleges that “positive” behavioral traits among students—such as sitting quietly and following directions—are only present in white cultures and, thus, constitutes “whiteness.”
 “So if PBIS concerns itself with positive behaviors, we have to ask ourselves, ‘Okay well what are those positive behaviors?’ And it&#8217;s things like making sure that you&#8217;re following directions, and making sure that you&#8217;re sitting quietly, and you are in your seat and all these things that come from White culture.&#8221;
&#8220;The idea of just sitting quiet and being told stuff and taking things in in a passive stance is not a thing that&#8217;s in many cultures. So if we&#8217;re positively enforcing these behaviors, we are by extension positively enforcing elements of White culture. Which therefore keeps Whiteness at the center, which is the definition of White supremacy.&#8221;

<a href="https://www.unr.edu/psychology/faculty/mariann-weierich" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Mariann Weierich</a> is the James K. and Lois Merritt Mikawa Distinguished Associate Professor of Psychology at the <a href="https://www.unr.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of Nevada-Reno</a>.
In a class-wide email—<a href="https://www.tpusa.com/live/leaked-email-from-unhinged-leftist-professor-defies-mask-mandate-directive-at-u-of-nevada-reno" target="_blank" rel="noopener">which was provided to the Professor Watchlist and TPUSA LIVE teams</a>—Dr. Weierich informs students that her classroom will have reserved sections to separate students with and without masks. The first several rows will be reserved for those with masks while those who chose not to wear them will have to sit in the back. Students are required to move seats if asked.

Students arrived to find that Dr. Weierich had posted the announcement which partitioned the first three rows of her class for masked students.
“FIRST THREE ROWS ARE RESERVED for students who have chosen to continue wearing masks. [sic] (we will revise the plan depending on numbers) Please respect their decision and please change seats if asked.”
She then proceeds to explain the exam policy for masked and unmasked students. Unmasked students will have to write any questions by hand before stepping back six feet from the instructor.
“For Student Questions During the Exam: If you ARE wearing a mask, please come to the room to ask your question, or wait until the end to ask just before you turn in your exam.” 
“If you ARE NOT wearing a mask, please write your question on your exam, wait until the end just before you turn in your exam, and at that time hand the question to Prof or TA and step back ~6 feet while we read and answer the question.”

By all accounts, this is not an isolated incident at UNR. The TPUSA LIVE and Professor Watchlist teams were informed by several students and identified other reports of professors who still require masks to enter class, separate students based on whether they wear a mask, and even move classes outside in the snow if too many students are not wearing masks.

<a href="https://art.appstate.edu/connect/directory/stephenson-john" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. John Stephenson</a> is an associate professor of Art History at <a href="https://www.appstate.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Appalachian State University</a> in Boone, North Carolina.
In an email provided exclusively to the Professor Watchlist team by an anonymous source, Dr. Stephenson pressured students who had not received the COVID-19 vaccine to drop his class.
During the Fall 2021 semester, Dr. Stephenson gave his students a questionnaire the day before the email was sent on August 18th. One question asked students if they were vaccinated against COVID-19. In the letter, Dr. Stephenson announced the findings of the survey, which allegedly indicated that 25% of the class had yet to be vaccinated.
“Hi Folks- We took the student questionnaire yesterday, and I appreciate the many who answered frankly about their vaccination status: just to report that at the least, 20% of our class is not vaccinated. Since some left that blank, we must guess that they too are unvaccinated, so likely~25% of our students are not vaccinated.” 
Dr. Stephenson then castigates students who elected not to receive the vaccine, describing their decision as “highly dubious” and “tragic.”
“Among those who frankly reported a reason, the several who reported they&#8217;ve already had covid {sic} and thus have antibodies presented a logical reason. For others who share that they “just don’t trust it,” “its too soon,” or yes- that, “their own families are begging them not to get vaccinated”- these are objectively highly dubious and frankly tragic reasons. Two numbers speak for themselves- approaching 700,000 Americans DEAD from covid SO FAR, nearly all without vaccines, and approx. ONE Billion, 200 THOUSAND vaccines given worldwide, almost ENTIRELY safely.”
Continuing, Dr. Stephenson stresses the danger of the “Delta” variant, alleging it to be far more virulent than past COVID strains. He further alleges that it is “incorrect” to assume young and asymptomatic people cannot spread the virus.
“The new, virulent Delta variant puts a new tragic urgency to this: more young people and children are getting sick, over 400 small children have died in the U.S. so far, Delta produces ONE THOUSAND TIMES more viruses in the nasal passages than before, those infected with Delta average FIVE others they infect, 40-60% more than before; and even if one imagines incorrectly that they’re ‘immune,’ due to youth, they will still spread Delta to about 5 other people even if they show no symptoms. Do the math in our class. On top of that, it is now shown that Delta is more virulent and produces worse and longer symptoms than before.”
Dr. Stephenson accuses his students’ parents of being “mired in the same lack of real facts” and thus contributing to the severity of the pandemic. He urges them to not rely on their parents, pastors, or other “right news sources.” Dr. Stephenson accuses the latter of lying repeatedly “without penalty” due to the “high bar of prosecution” in the US.
“Here’s one place the tragedy starts: you cannot be a responsible, informed American citizen if you only get ‘news’ in tailored, biased nuggets from Facebook and other private sources from Facebook and other private sources. You cannot offload your responsibility and knowledge to parents, esp since many, like mine own, are mired in the same lack of real facts. You cannot rely on right wing news sources: in the US, the bar is so high for prosecution that they can regularly lie about covid and the rest without penalty- and they do, And you can’t rely on traditional sources of authority such as your pastor if they are mired in the same loop of misinformation that spreads like a virus on social media and ‘news.’ You MUST learn and think, for yourself, and that starts with availing yourself of the best, real data and news. Laziness regarding our info sources and our responsibilities truth have led us to this point we are in today, in all of the political and medical outcomes.” 
Dr. Stephenson proceeds to laud the Washington Post and New York Times for their “extremely high standards for accuracy” and fact-checking staff. He encourages students to purchase a subscription in order to best inform themselves about the COVID-19 pandemic.
“It’s always been the case that our most trusted regular facts and news come from our largest, city based print based news organizations, like the Washington Post and the New York Times.The Washington Post offers students and faculty a daily digital newspaper at a mere $4.50 per month, and it’s the best deal on any product of any kind! These organizations have extremely high standards for accuracy, and employ very large staffs dedicated solely to checking a {sic] re-checking the facts on any issue, before they put their imprint on it and publish. Please consider a subscription if you haven’t already.”
Finally reaching the peak of his crescendo, Dr. Stephenson laments that herd immunity will never be reached and “we will likely suffer with this forever.” He requests unvaccinated students to withdraw from his class, claiming they could “wipe out” himself and the rest of the class.
“A reminder that if most Americans had gotten the vaccine long before this tragic date, we likely could have reached sufficient herd immunity &#8211; could have controlled or wiped out covid already &#8211; and we’d be sitting in our free and easy classrooms &#8211; without masks or worries. It’s now predicted that we can never reach herd immunity, and will likely suffer with this forever. So I ask finally, that those who are not vaccinated and have no factual health reason for that, consider dropping our course. Just the 20% who are unvaccinated could wipe out me and our class in “ideal” viral conditions. “ I can’t make you, and I certainly won’t call you out or punish you, but these are the FACTS.” 
*Reminder: in general I will not be offering any special zoom sessions for those who are ill. &#8220;

The Professor Watchlist Team reached out to Dr. Stephenson for comment prior to publication. In his response, Dr. Stephenson initially described our inquiry as “bullshit” and having quoted him out of context, but then proceeded to defend his remarks. Dr. Stephenson additionally claimed he received permission from a University Provost to ask about a student’s vaccination status.
He further referred to the author of the profile as a “wack job,” described Turning Point as a “Trump cult fake organization, ” and attached a screenshot of the author’s personal Twitter profile to the email. Dr. Stephenson additionally attached members of the Department of Art to his email.
The full text and screenshot of the email are included below.
“Dear &#8216;Team&#8217;- or Ben Larrabee that is- wack job with the Trump cult fake organization &#8220;Professor Watchlist&#8221; perhaps?

Updated &#8211; September 14th, 2021
&nbsp;

<a href="https://art.appstate.edu/connect/directory/stephenson-john" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. John Stephenson</a> is an associate professor of Art History at <a href="https://www.appstate.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Appalachian State University</a> in Boone, North Carolina.

In an email provided exclusively to the Professor Watchlist team by an anonymous source, Dr. Stephenson pressured students who had not received the COVID-19 vaccine to drop his class.

During the Fall 2021 semester, Dr. Stephenson gave his students a questionnaire the day before the email was sent on August 18th. One question asked students if they were vaccinated against COVID-19. In the letter, Dr. Stephenson announced the findings of the survey, which allegedly indicated that 25% of the class had yet to be vaccinated.

“Hi Folks- We took the student questionnaire yesterday, and I appreciate the many who answered frankly about their vaccination status: just to report that at the least, 20% of our class is not vaccinated. Since some left that blank, we must guess that they too are unvaccinated, so likely~25% of our students are not vaccinated.” 

Dr. Stephenson then castigates students who elected not to receive the vaccine, describing their decision as “highly dubious” and “tragic.”

“Among those who frankly reported a reason, the several who reported they've already had covid {sic} and thus have antibodies presented a logical reason. For others who share that they “just don’t trust it,” “its too soon,” or yes- that, “their own families are begging them not to get vaccinated”- these are objectively highly dubious and frankly tragic reasons. Two numbers speak for themselves- approaching 700,000 Americans DEAD from covid SO FAR, nearly all without vaccines, and approx. ONE Billion, 200 THOUSAND vaccines given worldwide, almost ENTIRELY safely.”

Continuing, Dr. Stephenson stresses the danger of the “Delta” variant, alleging it to be far more virulent than past COVID strains. He further alleges that it is “incorrect” to assume young and asymptomatic people cannot spread the virus.

“The new, virulent Delta variant puts a new tragic urgency to this: more young people and children are getting sick, over 400 small children have died in the U.S. so far, Delta produces ONE THOUSAND TIMES more viruses in the nasal passages than before, those infected with Delta average FIVE others they infect, 40-60% more than before; and even if one imagines incorrectly that they’re ‘immune,’ due to youth, they will still spread Delta to about 5 other people even if they show no symptoms. Do the math in our class. On top of that, it is now shown that Delta is more virulent and produces worse and longer symptoms than before.”

Dr. Stephenson accuses his students’ parents of being “mired in the same lack of real facts” and thus contributing to the severity of the pandemic. He urges them to not rely on their parents, pastors, or other “right news sources.” Dr. Stephenson accuses the latter of lying repeatedly “without penalty” due to the “high bar of prosecution” in the US.

“Here’s one place the tragedy starts: you cannot be a responsible, informed American citizen if you only get ‘news’ in tailored, biased nuggets from Facebook and other private sources from Facebook and other private sources. You cannot offload your responsibility and knowledge to parents, esp since many, like mine own, are mired in the same lack of real facts. You cannot rely on right wing news sources: in the US, the bar is so high for prosecution that they can regularly lie about covid and the rest without penalty- and they do, And you can’t rely on traditional sources of authority such as your pastor if they are mired in the same loop of misinformation that spreads like a virus on social media and ‘news.’ You MUST learn and think, for yourself, and that starts with availing yourself of the best, real data and news. Laziness regarding our info sources and our responsibilities truth have led us to this point we are in today, in all of the political and medical outcomes.” 

Dr. Stephenson proceeds to laud the Washington Post and New York Times for their “extremely high standards for accuracy” and fact-checking staff. He encourages students to purchase a subscription in order to best inform themselves about the COVID-19 pandemic.

“It’s always been the case that our most trusted regular facts and news come from our largest, city based print based news organizations, like the Washington Post and the New York Times.The Washington Post offers students and faculty a daily digital newspaper at a mere $4.50 per month, and it’s the best deal on any product of any kind! These organizations have extremely high standards for accuracy, and employ very large staffs dedicated solely to checking a {sic] re-checking the facts on any issue, before they put their imprint on it and publish. Please consider a subscription if you haven’t already.”

Finally reaching the peak of his crescendo, Dr. Stephenson laments that herd immunity will never be reached and “we will likely suffer with this forever.” He requests unvaccinated students to withdraw from his class, claiming they could “wipe out” himself and the rest of the class.

“A reminder that if most Americans had gotten the vaccine long before this tragic date, we likely could have reached sufficient herd immunity - could have controlled or wiped out covid already - and we’d be sitting in our free and easy classrooms - without masks or worries. It’s now predicted that we can never reach herd immunity, and will likely suffer with this forever. So I ask finally, that those who are not vaccinated and have no factual health reason for that, consider dropping our course. Just the 20% who are unvaccinated could wipe out me and our class in “ideal” viral conditions. “ I can’t make you, and I certainly won’t call you out or punish you, but these are the FACTS.” 

*Reminder: in general I will not be offering any special zoom sessions for those who are ill. "

Ms. <a href="http://www.jjay.cuny.edu/faculty/taryn-fivek" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Taryn Fivek</a> is an Adjunct Lecturer in the <a href="http://www.jjay.cuny.edu/department-economics" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Department of Economics</a> at <a href="http://www.jjay.cuny.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">John Jay College of Criminal Justice</a> in New York City. According to her university biography, her scholarship focuses on, “uneven economic and geographic development, financialization, neoliberalism, state power, and crisis.” A belligerent activist, she frequents protests across the city and is a representative of the Workers World Party (WWP).
Formed in 1959, the <a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=6vOzIPWKrwgC&amp;printsec=frontcover&amp;source=gbs_ge_summary_r&amp;cad=0#v=onepage&amp;q&amp;f=false" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WWP is a Marxist political party</a> that draws direct inspiration from the Bolshevik Revolution and Soviet Commissar, <a href="https://www.britannica.com/biography/Leon-Trotsky/Role-in-Soviet-government" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Leon Trotsky</a>. The organization was formed in 1959 as a more radical alternative to the existing socialist and communist parties at the time. Staunchly anti-American, the WWP frequently rushes to the <a href="https://www.workers.org/2012/world/peoples_korea_0126/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">defense of the North Korean dictatorship</a>, even going so far as to claim the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnzBEbuZPIw&amp;t=602s&amp;ab_channel=WorkersWorldParty" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Democratic People&#8217;s Republic of Korea offers women more rights than Western Nations. </a>
Ms. Fivek echoes the WWP’s praise for dictators and authoritarian regimes in speeches before the party’s membership. During one meeting, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmwr7SSglhM&amp;t=8s&amp;ab_channel=WorkersWorldParty" target="_blank" rel="noopener">she fondly recalled her attendance at a Venezuelan conference</a> with <a href="https://www.reuters.com/article/us-venezuela-politics-idUSKBN14W2QP" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Venezuelan dictator Nicholas Maduro</a> while praising the socialist revolution that swept over the country. A separate Buzzfeed report <a href="https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/hayesbrown/a-twitter-account-that-denies-people-are-starving-in-syria-i" target="_blank" rel="noopener">identified Ms. Fivek as the anonymous author of a blog and associated Twitter handle that defended Syrian dictator, Bashar Al-Assad</a>, who is known for brutally <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/11/world/middleeast/syria-torture-prisons.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">torturing and murdering his own citizens</a>.
The WWP further deploys its activists as a contingent of larger protests across the nation. The group is in regular attendance for the riots that <a href="https://dailycaller.com/2017/08/16/woman-who-destroyed-durham-confederate-statue-is-a-pro-north-korea-marxist/?utm_campaign=atdailycaller&amp;utm_source=Twitter&amp;utm_medium=Social" target="_blank" rel="noopener">topple Confederate statues</a> across the South. WWP members additionally took part in the protests that later became known as the “J20 Riots.” Descending on Washington DC in January of 2016, the WWP and other ANTIFA-affiliated groups <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20170223112856/https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/public-safety/protesters-who-destroyed-property-on-inauguration-day-part-of-well-organized-group/2017/01/21/096678c8-dfeb-11e6-ad42-f3375f271c9c_story.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">trashed business, burned cars, and caused hundreds of thousands in damages</a> in the attempt to disrupt the inauguration of President Donald Trump.
Ms. Fivek has openly acknowledged her own participation alongside WWP in the destruction. In a video posted a week after the inauguration, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_d1UdOvdkg&amp;t=272s&amp;ab_channel=WorkersWorldParty" target="_blank" rel="noopener">she details the party’s operations on the ground while vowing to continue fighting “every f***ing day” until they “overthrow this killer system”</a>:

&nbsp;
Ms. Fivek routinely denounces capitalism and western nations at large in other speeches at WWP meetings. Delivering one such lecture, beneath a Soviet hammer and sickle, Ms. Fivek commemorates the 100th anniversary of the Bolshevik Revolution and lauds the Communist Party&#8217;s alleged contributions to world progress. She encourages the members in attendance to draw inspiration from the Soviets in order to “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJjj1EZOJzA&amp;t=402s&amp;ab_channel=SkyNewsAustralia" target="_blank" rel="noopener">smash white supremacy, abolish capitalism, and immediately implement socialism.”</a>

&nbsp;
Despite her praise, the Bolshevik Revolution and the subsequent rise of the Soviet Union cost tens of millions of lives. After overthrowing the Russian government in the fall of 1917, Vladimir Lenin immediately set up <a href="https://www.nationalgeographic.com/history/article/red-terror-set-macabre-course-soviet-union" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a series of concentration camps, or “gulags” for political prisoners, and led the Soviet secret police in a brutal crackdown</a>—referred to as the “Red Terror”—against dissidents and political opponents. As many as one million perished before the carnage ended with the cessation of the Russian Civil War in 1921. As <a href="https://fee.org/articles/the-staggering-toll-of-the-russian-revolution/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">many as 60 million people perished </a>before the total dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991.
Representing the WWP in a separate 2017 protest, Ms. Fivek condemns President Trump’s recent decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. During her remarks, <a href="https://youtu.be/QdLUHeN5I1U?t=2645" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ms. Fivek lauds the “Palestinian Vanguard’s” violent resistance against Israel</a>, even going as far as to praise Palestinian children for participating in the struggle. She further derides Israel as, “some Zionist entity” heading the biding of globalists and big banks.
<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/2021/11/Taryn-Fivek-Palestian-Vanguard.mp4?_=2" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Taryn-Fivek-Palestian-Vanguard.mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Taryn-Fivek-Palestian-Vanguard.mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
Towards the conclusion of her tirade, Ms. Fivek leads the crowd in chanting, “From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be Free.” The slogan was <a href="https://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/291203" target="_blank" rel="noopener">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. The slogan is thought to <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/1948/08/02/archives/aim-to-oust-jews-pledged-by-sheikh-head-of-moslem-brotherhood-says.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">originate from the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hassan el-Banna</a>, who was quoted 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;

Towards the conclusion of her tirade, Ms. Fivek leads the crowd in chanting, “From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be Free.” The slogan was <a href="https://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/291203" target="_blank" rel="noopener">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. The slogan is thought to <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/1948/08/02/archives/aim-to-oust-jews-pledged-by-sheikh-head-of-moslem-brotherhood-says.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">originate from the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hassan el-Banna</a>, who was quoted 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."
