Dr. James Livingston is <a href="https://history.rutgers.edu/faculty-directory/172-livingston-james" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a tenured Professor of History</a> at Rutgers University. His specialty is listed as Modern US: Intellectual and Economic History. He considers himself an “economic historian” and professionally writes many publications about politics, economics, and working in the United States.
In his personal time, Dr. Livingston often takes to Facebook to discuss similar topics, but in a less professional manner. <a href="https://pen.org/press-clip/white-professor-accused-of-antiwhite-racism/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In a Facebook post from May 31, 2018</a>, Dr. Livingston denounces the white race and belligerently asserts he “hates white people.” Later in the post, he calls white Americans “little caucasian assholes who know their parents will approve of anything they do” and “little shitheads.”

&nbsp;
Shortly after his anti-white tirade, Rutgers launched an investigation into his posts. The university stated that they received several anonymous complaints about the posts, calling them to take action against the Professor. Dr. Livingston claimed he was making a statement about gentrification and told university officials that white supremacists were sending him threatening messages.
The investigation was headed by Carolyn Dellatore, the associate director of the Office of Employment Equity. <a href="https://www.thefire.org/rutgers-investigation-report/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Her investigation found that</a> “given Professor Livingston’s insistence on making disparaging racial comments, a reasonable student may have concerns that he or she would be stigmatized in his classes because of his or her race. As such, Professor Livingston’s comments have violated university policy.” He argued, however, that his posts were not racist because white people cannot be discriminated against. He also argued that the first amendment gave him the right to freedom of speech.
The university initially decided to sanction Dr. Livingston, but they <a href="https://www.northjersey.com/story/news/2018/11/15/no-punishment-rutgers-university-professor-over-white-people-comments-facebook/2016377002/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ultimately reversed their decision</a> in November 2018, clearing him of all charges. Dr. Livingston is still teaching at Rutgers University today.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The letter also calls for building a new multi-cultural center, more support for “underrepresented groups,” increasing the number of minority faculty members, and for Clemson employees to go through diversity training. Chenjerai also orchestrated a campaign against a student senate candidate and accused a candidate of racism for posing with a gun and American flag for his campaign poster.

Angela Putman

<a href="https://www.brandywine.psu.edu/person/angela-putman">Ms. Angela Putman</a> is an Assistant Professor of Communication Arts and Sciences at Pennsylvania State University at Brandywine. According to her university biography, Professor Putman describes herself as a “critical intercultural scholar.” Her biography states that she is interested in “whiteness as an ideology” and “institutional/systemic racism”, and encourages her students to promote and practice “social justice.”
Ms. Putman completed her dissertation at the University of New Mexico, titled, <a href="https://digitalrepository.unm.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1046&amp;context=cj_etds">“Interrupting the Silence: A Critical Discourse Analysis of a Pilot Seminar on Racism, Intersectionality, and White Privilege.”</a> The paper is based on a seminar that she created in order to teach college students about dismantling white privilege in their own lives.

At the conclusion of her dissertation, Ms. Putman laments that many of the seminar participants still reverted back to these “white privilege” positions–or what Putman labels, “individualistic definitions of racism” that uphold “whiteness.” Putman states that it’s ultimately up to her as a white scholar with “privilege and power” to incorporate the dismantling of white privilege into her teaching.

<a href="https://www.brandywine.psu.edu/person/angela-putman">Ms. Angela Putman</a> is an Assistant Professor of Communication Arts and Sciences at Pennsylvania State University at Brandywine. According to her university biography, Professor Putman describes herself as a “critical intercultural scholar.” Her biography states that she is interested in “whiteness as an ideology” and “institutional/systemic racism”, and encourages her students to promote and practice “social justice.”

Ms. Putman completed her dissertation at the University of New Mexico, titled, <a href="https://digitalrepository.unm.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1046&amp;context=cj_etds">“Interrupting the Silence: A Critical Discourse Analysis of a Pilot Seminar on Racism, Intersectionality, and White Privilege.”</a> The paper is based on a seminar that she created in order to teach college students about dismantling white privilege in their own lives.

Ms. Putman’s stated goal was to help her students “strengthen their understanding of systemic racism and white privilege and also provide them with useful strategies for confronting and disrupting white privilege in their lives, relationships, groups, and organizations.”

In the dissertation, Ms. Putman outlines the various ideas and beliefs that she states are products of “white privilege,” including the ideas of America as a meritocracy, color-blindness, and individualism.

<a href="https://cla.csulb.edu/departments/africanastudies/events/2021-07/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Maulana Karenga</a> is Chair of <a href="https://cla.csulb.edu/departments/africanastudies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Africana Studies</a> at <a href="https://www.csulb.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">California State University &#8211; Long Beach</a>. Dr. Karenga was a prominent black nationalist during the 1960s and 1970s, during which time he founded the holiday, “Kwanzaa.” Prone to extremity and paranoia, Dr. Karenga was convicted for the imprisonment and torture of two women he falsely suspected of poisoning him.
Born Ronald McKinley Everett, Dr. Karenga founded <a href="http://www.hartford-hwp.com/archives/45a/767.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kwanzaa as a pan-African holiday</a> in 1966. Despite that most American blacks are descended from West Africa, the name and traditions are based on East African Swahili. He would further <a href="https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2014/12/kwanzaa__a_madeup_holiday_.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">state the holiday’s proximity to Christmas was intentional, as otherwise it wouldn&#8217;t be noticed</a> by the black community.
People think it’s African. But it’s not. I wanted to give black people a holiday of their own. So I came up with Kwanzaa. I said it was African because you know black people in this country wouldn’t celebrate it if they knew it was American. Also, I put it around Christmas because I knew that’s when a lot of bloods [blacks] would be partying!
Dr. Kerenga intended for Kwanzaa to replace Christian and Jewish holidays. As he wrote in his book—Kawaida Theory—Western faith, “denies and diminishes human worth, capacity, potential and achievement.&#8221; In Christian and Jewish mythology, humans are born in sin, cursed with mythical ancestors who&#8217;ve sinned and brought the wrath of an angry God on every generation&#8217;s head.”
Dr. Karenga adopted his current name after embracing black nationalism while living on the West Coast in the 1960s. He would go on to found his own group—titled, <a href="https://www.us-organization.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Organization US</a>—as a more radical alternative to his rivals in the Black Panther Party.
<a href="http://web.stanford.edu/~ccarson/articles/am_left.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Black Panthers</a>—known officially as the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense—was a black-nationalist and Marxist organization that operated largely in California during the 1960s and 1970s. Known for their violent tactics and enforcement of party discipline, members would<a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/whitewashing-the-black-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> pour boiling water over suspected </a>police informants. Co-founder, Huey Newton, is <a href="https://www.salon.com/1999/12/13/betty/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">suspected to have taken part in multiple murders</a> committed by the Panthers.
Dr. Karenga’s organization frequently clashed with the rival, Black Panthers. Following a dispute over who would lead the Afro-American Studies Center at UCLA, <a href="https://freerepublic.com/focus/news/600011/posts?page=7" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Organization US members shot two Black Panthers to death on the campus in 1969</a> which set off a series of shootings across Los Angeles that summer. The incident caused Dr. Karenga to fall into paranoia and suspect his own followers of plotting to kill him.
On the evening of May 9th, 1970, Dr. Karenga and several of his followers confronted two women who were staying at his home. He accused both of placing poison “crystals” in his food and water. According to court testimony, the women were then stripped naked, bound, and ordered to confess. Dr. Karenga tortured both women over the next two days, beating each with an electrical cord, and then branded them with a soldering iron.
While awaiting trial, Dr. Karenga’s mental health continued to deteriorate. The court-appointed psychologist found him to be schizophrenic, and reportedly caught Dr. Karenga speaking to hallucinations in his jail cell:
“Since his admission here he has been isolated and has been exhibiting bizarre behavior, such as staring at the wall, talking to imaginary persons, claiming that he was attacked by dive-bombers and that his attorney was in the next cell. During part of the interview he would look around as if reacting to a hallucination and when the examiner walked away for a moment he began a conversation with a blanket located on his bed. This man now presents a picture which can be considered both paranoid and schizophrenic with hallucinations and elusions, inappropriate affect, disorganization, and impaired contact with the environment.” 
The court later sentenced him to one to ten years in jail for two counts of felonious assault, and one count of false imprisonment. However, he was granted parole in <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kwanzaa-was-invented-insane-leftist-gangster-who-michael-j-knowles" target="_blank" rel="noopener">1975 thanks to a letter-writing campaign by his followers.</a>
While in jail, Karenga converted his ideology from Black Nationalism to explicit Marxism. In 1978, just a few years after his release, Dr. Karenga was hired as the Chair of the African Studies department, where he now resides as of March 2022.

<a href="http://www.cla.csulb.edu/departments/journalism/people/faculty/chris-knap/">Christopher Knap</a>, a Communications Professor at CSULB, assigned a homework assignment which mocked Trump as sexist and homophobic. The assignment involved an employee named "Ronald Plump" that harassed women and used homophobic slurs.

<a href="https://www.csulb.edu/office-of-the-president/president/about">Dr. Jane Close Conoley</a>, is the current President of California State University - Long Beach. In an op-ed from 2014, Conoley stated that if you are “light-skinned” you have “significant unearned privilege.” Moreover, these privileged individuals show distrust and “lower expectations of behavior” of those with another skin color.

Michael Park is an instructor at California State University-Long Beach. He used a media law class to disparage Tea Partiers and conservatives as being birthers. In an assignment, he implied that opposition to President Obama is based on a belief that he is not a "true American". This is similar to a class taught by Christopher Knap, a fellow CSULB professor that assigned a homework assignment implying Trump is homophobic/sexist.

<a href="https://www.usafa.edu/facultyprofile/?smid=11106" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Lynne Chandler Garcia</a> is an Assistant Professor of Political Science at the <a href="https://www.usafa.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">United States Air Force Academy</a> in Colorado Springs, Colorado. In July of 2021, she made national headlines for her vocal support for teaching critical race theory in the military.
Ben Shapiro defines critical race theory—also referred to as critical theory—in an article for Breitbart, <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2012/03/11/what-is-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">as an “intellectual branch of Marxism that alleges American society and all of its founding institutions are infected with white supremacy</a>”. 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.”

Continuing, Dr. Garcia insinuates that racism is embedded in the Constitution and that critical race theory is vital to understanding this and the inequality that is, “endemic in American society.”
“Critical race theory provides an academic framework to understand these nuances and contradictions [in the Constitution]. It helps students identify the structural racism and inequality that has been endemic in American society. And it provides methods for deconstructing and oppressive beliefs, policies, and practices to find solutions that will lead to justice.” 
Dr. Garcia further cites several reports in an attempt to demonstrate that discrimination is embedded into branches of the military. Dr. Garcia endorses critical race theory to combat the “threat of white supremacy” amongst its ranks.
“In other words, racism was ingrained in the system from the beginning, and the military still struggles with these issues. As a recent inspector general’s report on disparities in the Air Force and Space Force pointed out, black {sic} service members lag behind their white peers in promotion rates but are over-represented in disciplinary actions. Further, a recent Defense Department report documented the threat of white supremacy within the ranks.” 
Dr. Garcia’s remarks drew a fierce reaction from lawmakers upon publication. <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/cotton-rips-us-air-force-academy-prof-for-teaching-critical-race-theory-shes-trying-to-indoctrinate-cadets" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In a statement to Fox News</a>, Arkansas Senator, Tom Cotton, wrote, “We should not be teaching and indoctrinating our cadets to believe that our military is a fundamentally racist institution.”
Despite Dr. Garcia’s admission, <a href="https://taskandpurpose.com/news/defense-secretary-austin-matt-gaetz-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Pentagon had previously denied the military promotes critical race theory</a>. In a congressional hearing, Secretary of Defense, Lloyd Austin, stated, “we do not teach critical race theory&#8230;we don’t embrace critical race theory and I think that’s a spurious conversation.”
As noted by the Washington Free Beacon, <a href="https://freebeacon.com/national-security/navy-reading-list-includes-anti-racism-book-for-sailors/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the military has begun subscribing critical race theorists to enlistees</a>, including Boston University’s Ibram X Kendi’s book, “How to be an Anti-Racist.” A battalion commander reportedly said to his troops, “i<a href="https://humanevents.com/2021/06/09/behind-the-beret-battalion-commander-reportedly-tells-troops-white-people-are-part-of-the-problem/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">f you’re a white male, you are part of the problem.</a>”

<a href="https://www.usafa.edu/facultyprofile/?smid=11106" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Lynne Chandler Garcia</a> is an Assistant Professor of Political Science at the <a href="https://www.usafa.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">United States Air Force Academy</a> in Colorado Springs, Colorado. In July of 2021, she made national headlines for her vocal support for teaching critical race theory in the military.

Ben Shapiro defines critical race theory—also referred to as critical theory—in an article for Breitbart, <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2012/03/11/what-is-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">as an “intellectual branch of Marxism that alleges American society and all of its founding institutions are infected with white supremacy</a>”. 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.”

<a href="https://www.sia.psu.edu/faculty/hatemi">Dr. Peter Hatemi</a>, a Professor of Political Science at Penn State, stated that conservatives express more issues of psychoticism, which he defined as " uncooperative, hostile, troublesome, and socially withdrawn, but lack feelings of inferiority and have an absence of anxiety. At the extremes, those scoring high on P are manipulative, tough-minded, and practical." He also claims that the counterparts of these conservatives [the left] is more likely to be altruistic, well socialized, empathic, and conventional. However upon review he accidentally switched data points around and should have labeled liberals with the adjectives he labeled conservatives with. Presented with this information, he claimed that it did not change his conclusion.

Warning: Profile Contains Explicit Language
<a href="https://sociology.la.psu.edu/people/smr8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Sam Richards</a> is a Teaching Professor of Sociology at <a href="https://www.psu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pennsylvania State University</a>. He is known for his racially laden diatribes delivered to students during his lectures.

Dr. Richards is most prominently known for teaching SOC119, or “Race and Ethnic Relations”. The class is <a href="https://www.soc119.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">allegedly the “largest race and cultural relations course in the United States,</a>” according to the official site. Dr. Richards also streams his lectures live, with over 57,000 subscribers on Youtube as of August 2021.

The course addresses relevant racial, political, and cross-cultural issues amongst young adults. Classes consist of Dr. Richards facilitating discussions for students to confront and examine viewpoints contrary to their own.

However, lectures typically devolve into racial and politically biased tirades. Dr. Richards frequently accuses white students of harboring racial animus, alleges that white supremacy is embedded in American culture, and accuses American Christians of seeking to overthrow the government.

In one lecture, titled “White Discomfort,” <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKTUG02kTTg&amp;ab_channel=SOC119" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Richards selects a black and white student and asks them to stand in front of the class</a>. Claiming that racial equality does not exist, he proceeds to position both students abreast of one another before yelling, “They are not f****** equal!”

&nbsp;

In another class, titled “Christian Sharia,” Dr. Richards spends over an hour <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmzDnulSV_g&amp;ab_channel=SOC119" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lecturing on the threat he perceives Christians pose to the country.</a> At one point, when displaying a picture of a Muslim man holding a sign that reads, “Behead Those That Insult Islam,” he proceeds to claim, “You can’t find that anywhere in the Koran….I know that you can find it in the Bible.”

&nbsp;

Later in the same lecture, he accuses Vice President Mike Pence of being a religious extremist on par with that of the Taliban.

&nbsp;

In a lecture delivered in <a href="https://campusreform.org/article?id=17832" target="_blank" rel="noopener">March of 2021 and captured by Campus Reform</a>, Dr. Richards selects a white student, Brian, from the audience for a class exercise. He proceeds to ask Brian who he oppressed that day. After the student replied that he hadn’t oppressed anybody, Dr. Richards retorts that since Brian has “left his house” and “is breathing”, that, as a white person, he must have oppressed somebody that day. The full interaction may be viewed below.

As of August 2021, Dr. Richards has disabled comments or unlisted many of his videos following publicity of his lectures.

The main site for SOC119 mandates that regardless of vaccination status, students will have to wear masks while attending class.

Dr. Omar Suleiman is an adjunct professor of Islamic Studies and a member of the <a href="https://www.smu.edu/Provost/Ethics/AboutUs/AdvisoryBoard" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ethics Center Advisory Board</a> at <a href="https://www.smu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Southern Methodist University</a> in Dallas, Texas. A prominent interfaith activist, he serves as <a href="https://yaqeeninstitute.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">President for the Yaqeen Institute for Islamic Research</a>, resident scholar for the Valley Ranch Islamic Center, and a member of the leadership council of <a href="https://www.faithforwarddallas.org/leadership" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Faith Forward Dallas at Thanksgiving Square</a>.
Dr. Suleiman has praised Islamic terrorism and is a fierce opponent of the existence of Israel. Furthermore, he remains an active affiliate for Islamist organizations with connections to the Muslim Brotherhood and radicals convicted of terrorism.
The controversy surrounding Dr. Suleiman’s work first arose when he was invited to give the opening invocation for the House of Representatives in May 2019. In response, New York Representative, Lee Zeldin, condemned the decision over what he described as Dr. Suleiman’s support of the Muslim Brotherhood and Islamic terrorism.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Totally unacceptable that <a href="https://twitter.com/SpeakerPelosi?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@SpeakerPelosi</a> had Omar Suleiman give the opening prayer yesterday in the House. He compares Israel to the Nazis &amp; calls them terrorists, supports Muslim Brotherhood, incites violence calling for a Palestinian antifada &amp; the end of zionism, etc. Bad call <a href="https://t.co/bZakjQVwsJ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pic.twitter.com/bZakjQVwsJ</a>

&nbsp;
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR)<a href="https://www.cair.com/press_releases/cair-dallas-calls-on-people-of-conscience-to-stand-with-imam-omar-suleiman-condemn-smear-campaign-launched-after-his-prayer-in-congress/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> leapt to Dr. Suleiman’s defense</a>, stating,
“These attacks are in bad faith and meant to again send a message to the American Muslim community that we are not welcome to assert ourselves in any meaningful space or way.“
Dr. Suleiman further described the accusations to The Middle-East Monitor as a “<a href="https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/omar-sulaiman-attacked" target="_blank" rel="noopener">coordinated smear campaign” to “erase Muslim leaders from public life</a>,” by “antisemitic” news outlets.
His public statements and denials stand in contradiction to past social media posts in which Dr. Suleiman called for a third Intifada, compared Israel to Nazi Germany, and described Zionists as, “enemies of God.”
In now-deleted tweets from 2014, Dr. Suleiman celebrates what he hopes will become the “Third Intifada.”

An intifada—Arabic for “uprising”—refers to a series of Palestinian insurrections within Israel.

Dr. Suileman tweeted his support for a Third Intifada during  “Operation Protective Edge” in which Israel took military action to destroy weapons and bases in the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip. The operation was launched after the<a href="https://www.memri.org/tv/hamas-leadership-acknowledges-responsibility-kidnapping-three-israeli-teens" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> kidnapping and murder of three Israeli teenagers by the terror group Hamas</a>.

Dr. Omar Suleiman is an adjunct professor of Islamic Studies and a member of the <a href="https://www.smu.edu/Provost/Ethics/AboutUs/AdvisoryBoard" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ethics Center Advisory Board</a> at <a href="https://www.smu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Southern Methodist University</a> in Dallas, Texas. A prominent interfaith activist, he serves as <a href="https://yaqeeninstitute.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">President for the Yaqeen Institute for Islamic Research</a>, resident scholar for the Valley Ranch Islamic Center, and a member of the leadership council of <a href="https://www.faithforwarddallas.org/leadership" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Faith Forward Dallas at Thanksgiving Square</a>.

Dr. Suleiman has praised Islamic terrorism and is a fierce opponent of the existence of Israel. Furthermore, he remains an active affiliate for Islamist organizations with connections to the Muslim Brotherhood and radicals convicted of terrorism.

The controversy surrounding Dr. Suleiman’s work first arose when he was invited to give the opening invocation for the House of Representatives in May 2019. In response, New York Representative, Lee Zeldin, condemned the decision over what he described as Dr. Suleiman’s support of the Muslim Brotherhood and Islamic terrorism.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Totally unacceptable that <a href="https://twitter.com/SpeakerPelosi?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@SpeakerPelosi</a> had Omar Suleiman give the opening prayer yesterday in the House. He compares Israel to the Nazis &amp; calls them terrorists, supports Muslim Brotherhood, incites violence calling for a Palestinian antifada &amp; the end of zionism, etc. Bad call <a href="https://t.co/bZakjQVwsJ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pic.twitter.com/bZakjQVwsJ</a>

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR)<a href="https://www.cair.com/press_releases/cair-dallas-calls-on-people-of-conscience-to-stand-with-imam-omar-suleiman-condemn-smear-campaign-launched-after-his-prayer-in-congress/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> leapt to Dr. Suleiman’s defense</a>, stating,

“These attacks are in bad faith and meant to again send a message to the American Muslim community that we are not welcome to assert ourselves in any meaningful space or way.“

Dr. Suleiman further described the accusations to The Middle-East Monitor as a “<a href="https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/omar-sulaiman-attacked" target="_blank" rel="noopener">coordinated smear campaign” to “erase Muslim leaders from public life</a>,” by “antisemitic” news outlets.

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

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

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.

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

Dr. Dixon is <a href="https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-01-15/redneck-revolt-and-the-hard-lefts-call-to-arms/9303758?nw=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a member</a> of the ANTIFA group known as <a href="https://www.redneckrevolt.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Redneck Revolt.&#8221;</a> Describing itself as a <a href="https://www.redneckrevolt.org/principles" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“revolutionary” organization</a>, Redneck Revolt advocates for training and using firearms to be used for “communal self-defense” and the “right of militant resistance.” The organization openly declares they “are not pacifists,” and support the abolition of prisons, national borders, police, private property, and capitalism.
Dr. Dixon advocates for the use of violence and justifies the destruction of private property. Speaking to ABC News, he makes the <a href="https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-01-15/dwayne-dixon-takes-care-of-his-gun-in-his-workshop/9321726?nw=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">&#8220;distinction” between destroying “inanimate objects&#8221; and attacking people after stating that the left uses violence in the cases of “resistance</a>.”

&nbsp;
In a lecture delivered at Harvard University in 2018, Dr. Dixon <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0dgg9dXLm0&amp;ab_channel=HarvardCarrCenterforHumanRightsPolicy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">describes slaveholders as “white-supremacist capitalists” and analogous to corporate bosses</a>. Arguing that neither would give up their property peacefully, he echoes the call for “active resistance” by Redneck Revolt to achieve liberation.
In the same lecture, Dr. Dixon decries various conservatives who were extended the opportunity to speak at colleges around the country.

<a href="http://comm.unc.edu/faculty-and-staff/faculty/michael-s-waltman/">Dr. Michael Waltman</a>, a Professor of Communications at University of North Carolina, teaches a course on hate speech that blames conservatives for hate speech. His course description reads that it is designed “to expose students to the nature of hate in American life . . . [that] is sustained through the imposition of racist, sexist, and heterosexist ideologies."

Dr. <a href="https://asianstudies.unc.edu/people/faculty/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dwayne Dixon</a> is a Professor in the <a href="https://asianstudies.unc.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Department of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies</a> at the  <a href="https://www.unc.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill</a>.

Dr. Dixon advocates for the use of violence and justifies the destruction of private property. Speaking to ABC News, he makes the <a href="https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-01-15/dwayne-dixon-takes-care-of-his-gun-in-his-workshop/9321726?nw=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">"distinction” between destroying “inanimate objects" and attacking people after stating that the left uses violence in the cases of “resistance</a>.”

Arguing that neither would give up their property peacefully, he echoes the call for “active resistance” by Redneck Revolt to achieve liberation.

In the same lecture, Dr. Dixon decries various conservatives who were extended the opportunity to speak at colleges around the country. He equates universities' embrace of free speech to the facilitation of the rise of fascism in America.

<a href="https://engl.iastate.edu/chloe-clark-version-2/">Chloe Clark</a> is an English professor at Iowa State University.  She received national <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/iowa-state-professor-black-lives-matter-abortion">attention</a> for banning her students from debating certain topics in her class.
In a leaked syllabus for an English 250 class, <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/iowa-state-professor-forbids-students-from-criticizing-blm-gay-marriage-abortion/">Clark threatened to dismiss</a> any student that engages in “racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, serophobia, transphobia, classism, mocking of mental health issues, and body shaming.” Forbining any opposition to the Black Lives Matter movement and abortion, Clark stated that expressing any alternative views,
“ &#8230;are grounds for dismissal from the classroom. The same goes for any papers/projects: you cannot chose any topic that takes at its base that one side doesn’t deserve the same basic rights as you do (ie: no arguments against gay marriage, abortion, Black Lives Matter, etc). I take this seriously.”
Ironically, Clark states that a “central concept” of the course includes the formulation and presentation of arguments by students:
“An argument can be any text &#8211; written, spoken, aural, or visual &#8211; that expresses a point of view&#8230;In this course, you’ll summarize, analyze, and evaluate various types of communication and then use those skills…” 
Although the university announced that the syllabus had been corrected, Clark has a history of attempting to limit her students’ freedom of speech. At a weekly <a href="https://www.iowastatedaily.com/news/iowa-state-ames-feminist-friday-chloe-clark-margaret-sloss-center-for-women-and-gender-equity-house-discussion-monster-othering/article_5785b85e-fce2-11e9-b46b-8f4cb810f8a1.html">“Feminist Friday”</a> event hosted by Clark the prior semester, she discussed how the use of the term “illegal alien” was a form of “othering,” or an act of discrimination &#8211; a theme that she admits to teaching in her classes. She also asks her students to reflect on the way their “privilege” may negatively impact others:
“You shouldn’t feel guilty, you can’t change the way you were born, but you can use your privilege in productive ways.”

<a href="https://www.religion.ucsb.edu/people/faculty/rudy-busto/">Rudy Busto </a>is an Associate Professor at the University of California - Santa Barbara. His work is described as examining how “race structures state and civil society” and how the concept of race structures religion. 

As reported by <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=14987">Campus Reform</a>, Busto recently gave a lengthy presentation to one of his classes at the end of the semester in which he explained in detail why he believes that America is not an exceptional nation. He declared that “history has dispelled the notion of American Exceptionalism,” Busto listed off the reasons why he believed that America was no longer exceptional, including losing the Vietnam War and the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

<a href="https://www.religion.ucsb.edu/people/student/timothy-snediker/">Timothy Snediker</a> works in the Department of Religious Studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara. He first rose to notoriety for tweeting about his desire to assassinate Jesus Christ.

Snediker’s animosity towards Christ stems from his belief that the concepts of the individual and capitalism, both of which he opposes, arose out of Christianity during the enlightenment in Europe.

In the <a href="http://jcrt.org/religioustheory/2016/05/18/theodicy-of-money-the-scene-and-subject-of-forgiveness/">Theodicy of Money - The Scene of and Subject Forgiveness</a>, Snediker writes:

“Against the standard left critique of capitalism, which presupposes a certain secularism and a certain atheism, one must rather grapple with the peculiar verve of a comment made by Giorgio Agamben: “God did not die; he was transformed into money...To the identity of Christianity and capitalism corresponds the identity of God and money….Today, it is simply not enough to be an atheist, because, in the last instance, everyone believes in money." 

As written in <a href="https://jcrt.org/archives/14.1/snediker.pdf">The Autonomy of the Now</a>, he further expands on his position:

“Our hypothesis is that, under the brutal conditions of global capitalist hegemony, resistance necessitates the affirmation of the intrinsic instability and artificiality of identity…”

“...resistance to power necessitates a two-fold refusal of the authority and sovereignty of both Christianity and Secularism…”

“Secularization is the strategic means by which the West (which is to say, Christendom, or European colonialism, or, simply, Christianity) effects its accumulations, its appropriations, and its dominations.....Christianity’s hegemony has not waned; it has metamorphosed and Metastasized."

“Christianity is the identitarian religion par excellence: it ceaselessly works to individualize, legitimate and commoditize one’s identity....this is how Christianity was constituted as a privileged instrument of power”

“Resistance to power necessitates, therefore, a restoration of the autonomy of the now, which in turn requires a two-fold counter-strategy: one the one hand, an acceptance of the instability of identity and the concurrent affirmation of our becoming-other; on the other hand, a refusal of power, which, in the era of global capitalism amounts to a critique of the secular, or, again, a critique of Christianity. “

"Our imperative is to join the struggle for subjectivity, to struggle to speak truthfully about ourselves, to discover that relation to the outside which allows us, in accordance with Nietzsche’s injunction, to become what we are—to become, in a word, anti-Christian."

Snediker’s vitriol towards Christianity exploded when asked what he would do if he could travel 2000 years back in time, he <a href="https://twitter.com/realBenLeBlanc/status/1287809540373778434">tweeted</a>:

“Easy. I would find and assassinate Jesus of Nazareth.” 

He then proceeded to double-down, tweeting:

“Theologically speaking, it would be really important to get him before his calling and ministry begins, so that gives me roughly a decade to make it to Palestine, locate the man, and make my move. I don’t want to be the heroic Judas avant la lettre”

Dr. Bucholtz ended her portion of the lecture by arguing that white students devalue inclusivity because they are uncomfortable with losing their place of privilege. She told teachers that they will need to be ready to “push back against their pushback”.

<a href="https://cardozo.yu.edu/directory/ekow-n-yankah" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Ekow N. Yankah</a> is a Professor of Law within the <a href="https://cardozo.yu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cardozo Law School</a> at <a href="https://www.yu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Yeshiva University</a> in New York City. According to his university profile, Dr. Yankah specializes in criminal law, criminal procedure, election law, and torts. He also serves as a member of the New York Democratic Lawyers Council, the Voting Rights Arm of the New York Democratic Party, and the Coordinating Arm of the DNC.
Dr. Yankah is best known for his article, “<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/11/opinion/sunday/interracial-friendship-donald-trump.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Can My Children Be Friends With White People</a>?” In the piece, the professor encourages his children to shun any close friendships with white people.
The piece first appeared in the New York Times in 2017. With the first year of President Donald Trump’s administration as the backdrop, Dr. Yankah accused the president’s supporters of ignoring and even participating in Trump’s racial bigotry.
Dr. Yankah further writes that friendship across racial lines asks black people to ignore their own safety. He states bluntly that you cannot ignore someone who voted for Trump, and states that he simply cannot trust white people.

After expressing his utter contempt for white Trump voters who hide behind “everyday decency as a shield,” Dr. Yankah declares friendships with whites “impossible”. Due to their racial privilege—or what Dr. Yankah describes as, “due to conditions of dominance”—he further writes that history has provided little reason for people of color to trust white people.
Citing instances of brutality during the civil rights era, Dr. Yankah writes that as a father, his first priority is to keep his black sons safe. Therefore, he will teach them a “profound” friendship is impossible with white people due to their “rending, violent, and often fatal betrayal” by voting for Trump.
Dr. Yankah concludes that for these reasons and more, he teaches his children to have profound doubts as to whether or not friendship with white people is possible. He would subsequently appear on Tucker Carlson&#8217;s show in defense of his remarks.

<a href="https://cronkite.asu.edu/about/faculty-and-leadership/faculty/gilgerbio">Kristin Gilger</a> is the Reynolds Professor of Business Journalism and the interim dean at the Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication at Arizona State University (ASU). She is the author of the book <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Theres-No-Crying-Newsrooms-Learned/dp/1538121492">“There’s No Crying in Newsrooms”</a> and has served in various roles at ASU since 2002.
Gilger has been mired in controversy since assuming her role as dean this past summer. The previous candidate, Sonya Forte Duhe, was replaced by Gilger after <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/after-tweet-supporting-good-police-officers-arizona-state-revokes-journalism-dean-offer/">her offer was rescinded by the university</a>. After tweeting an image that was considered too positive towards police officers, Duhe was condemned by university faculty for showing “poor judgment.”
Gilger has come under fire after pressuring Rae’Lee Klein, a senior journalism major, and station manager for ASU’s Blaze radio, to resign from her position after <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/08/28/this-is-why-jacob-blake-had-a-warrant-out-for-his-arrest/?preview_id=16209831">tweeting and soon deleting a New York Post article</a> detailing the warrant issued for Jacob Blake’s arrest;
“Always more to the story, folks. Please read this article to get to the background of Jacob Blake’s warrant. You’ll be quite disgusted“ 
Blake—who was wanted for sexually assaulting his ex-girlfriend—was shot in the back by police after resisting arrest and allegedly reaching for a knife on the floor of his car.
Facing immediate backlash for her tweet, the Board of Directors at the station <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/09/18/arizona-student-journalist-cancelled-over-jacob-blake-tweet/">voted unanimously to remove her from her position</a>. Later releasing a statement, the board announced that “Blaze Radio firmly believes that Black Lives Matter.”
“The board gave Klein an opportunity to step down under her own will. As of the time of this statement, Klein has not made the decision to resign…In light of this, we do not recognize Rae&#8217;Lee Klein as the station manager of Blaze Radio.”  
Gilger has claimed that the University is not moving to remove Klein. In a statement to the New York Post, Gilger stated that Klein is not being targeted by the university for her views.
“Any actions that are unfolding are not punishment for a tweet. I have been clear with Rae’Lee that she would not be removed as station manager of Blaze Radio, a student internet radio station, because of the views she expressed,”  
However, in email exchanges between Klein and Gilger, she did in fact act to pressure Klein to resign, contrary to her statement.
In their exchange (pictured below) Gilger clearly states that Klein remaining in her position, “is not an option,” as she had lost the confidence of the board.

&nbsp;
Although suggesting new roles that Klein may assume, Gilger cites the &#8220;Media Guidelines for Student Journalists&#8221; to warn her to refrain in the future from posting information “that could call into question your ability to act independently as a journalist.” This seems to contradict Gilger’s claim that Klein was not being targeted by the university for her views.

&nbsp;
At this time, Klein has refused to step down from her role, and officially remains the station’s manager.
Update: In February of 2021, Klein announced that she <a href="https://www.westernjournal.com/college-pays-settlement-conservative-student-ousted-manager-role/">has reached a settlement with Gilger</a> over a lawsuit she had filed against ASU several months prior.

<a href="https://cisa.asu.edu/node/7955" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Asao Inoue</a> is a professor and Associate Dean of Academic Affairs, Equity and Inclusion in the College of Integrative Science and Arts at Arizona State University. According to his University biography, Inoue’s <a href="https://cisa.asu.edu/node/7955" target="_blank" rel="noopener">research</a> focuses on “antiracist and social justice theory and practices in writing assessments.”

Prior to his role at Arizona State, Inoue served as the Director of the Writing Center at the University of Washington-Tacoma. As Daily Caller <a href="https://dailycaller.com/2017/02/20/college-writing-center-declares-american-grammar-a-racist-unjust-language-structure/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">documents</a>, Inoue <a href="\&quot;https://stjenglish.com/standing-against-racism-in-the-field-of-writing-dr-asao-inoue-uw-tacoma/\&quot;" target="_blank" rel="noopener">commissioned</a> an anti-racist poster in an effort to ensure that his staff did not “embrace racist practices.” Inoue maintains that racism is embedded in the English language as well as in society itself, writing that “racism is the normal condition of things.

<img class="size-large wp-image-1502 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-08-10T135650.565-e1628629052457-1024x391.png" alt="" width="580" height="221" />

According to the text of the poster, recorded by The College Fix, Inoue writes that his goal is to <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/university-writing-center-combats-racist-unjust-language-structures/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">help students become more critical of “unjust language structures”</a> in order to succeed in what Inoue claims is a racist society.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1501 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-08-10T135356.265-e1628628890970-1024x296.png" alt="" width="580" height="168" />

Inoue would later author a book on his beliefs titled, “Labor-Based Grading Contracts: Building Equity and Inclusion in the Compassionate Writing Classroom.” In an excerpt from the book, Inoue declares that he focuses on grading students for their efforts, and not the “quality” of their writing.

“This book focuses on one kind of grading contract, one that calculates final course grades purely by the labor students complete, not by any judgments of the quality of their writing.”

As Daily Wire reports, Inoue writes that his <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/arizona-state-dean-grading-writing-based-on-quality-is-racist-promotes-white-language-supremacy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">beliefs and teaching practices are based on “critical-race theory,” or “labor-based theory.”</a>As Breitbart documents, c<a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2012/03/11/what-is-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ritical race theory is an intellectual branch of Marxism</a> that views America and all of its institutions as being infected with white supremacy.

He writes further that grading students only perpetuates white supremacy.

“The traditional purposes and methods used for grading writing turn out to be de facto racist and White supremacist….Grading by a standard, thus, is how White language supremacy is perpetuated in schools”

Inoue also draws an analogy between issuing grades for English and the institution of slavery, stating that grading is a “slave-making mechanism.”

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1504 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-08-10T140031.897-e1628629269866-1024x317.png" alt="" width="580" height="180" />

Inoue believes that even the physical proximity of white people causes racism. In a YouTube video of Inoue speaking before the 2019 Convention of the National Council of Teachers of English, Inoue <a href="https://youtu.be/brPGTewcDYY?t=994" target="_blank" rel="noopener">states that even the presence of white people “perpetuates racism.</a>”

&nbsp;

Inoue delivered this speech while <a href="https://cccc.ncte.org/cccc/about/chairs" target="_blank" rel="noopener">serving as the Conference Chair of the Conference on College Composition and Communication</a>, which bills itself as the <a href="https://cccc.ncte.org/cccc/about/chairs" target="_blank" rel="noopener">largest professional organization for researching and teaching writing composition</a>. It is the annual conference of the National Council of Teachers of English, which <a href="https://ncte.org/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">boasts over 25,000 English and Language Arts teachers as members all over the country</a>.

<a href="https://isearch.asu.edu/profile/597528" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Lorraine Moya Salas</a> is an Instructor in the <a href="https://socialwork.asu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">School of Social Work</a> at <a href="https://campus.asu.edu/dohttps://campus.asu.edu/downtown-phoenixwntown-phoenix" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Arizona State University - Downtown Phoenix</a>.

During a lecture in one of her courses—titled, “Foundations of Social Work”—Dr. Lorraine can be heard describing the United States as a “white supremacist system,” that was founded for the benefit of white people at the expense of Native Americans and people of color.

In the class—recorded and provided exclusively to the Professor Watchlist team by an anonymous source—Dr. Salas urges her students to confront the “implicit biases” present in themselves and American society. Claiming that stereotypes and prejudices construct implicit bias, she warns that unconscious actions can cause serious harm.

Attempting to provide an example to bolster her claim, Dr. Salas states that implicit bias causes doctors to act as if their black patients are slaves. She proceeds to cite a study that claims doctors give less pain medication to black patients as compared to white ones.

Dr. Salas alleges this is the product of the legacy of slavery; slave owners viewed blacks as subhuman and able to withstand a large amount of pain, so therefore doctors continue to believe that blacks can withstand a large amount of pain. Doctors will therefore prescribe black patients less pain medication.

[video width="1280" height="720" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Lorraine-Moya-Salas-Part-1_updated.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

Dr. Salas additionally cites a study that claims teachers will call on boys more often than girls in their classrooms. She claims this as proof that teachers think boys answer questions correctly more often than girls.

[video width="1280" height="720" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Lorraine-Moya-Salas-Part-1_2.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

Throughout the lecture, Dr. Salas alleges that numerous racial, ethnic, and gender disparities in society are a result of implicit bias. She urges her students, as future social workers, to confront their own implicit biases and assigns an “implicit bias test” for them to complete before the next class.

Dr. Salas additionally claims that institutional racism produces inequality and disparities, attributing it to the legacy of slavery in the Americas. Although acknowledging that all cultures practiced slavery, she claims that no slave trade was enforced along racial lines until the Europeans did so in order to specifically oppress people of color.

Citing slavery, the genocide of Native Americans and discriminatory, Jim Crow laws, Dr. Salas claims that  America was constructed as a “white supremacist culture” for the sole benefit of white people who have maintained their “white power structures” ever since.

&nbsp;

In the accompanying slides, Dr. Salas cites Critical Race Theory to define white supremacy as a, “political or socio-economic system where white people enjoy structural advantage and rights that other racial and ethnic groups do not, both at a collective and an individual level”.

<img class="size-large wp-image-1692 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/3b-SelfAwarenessAndRaceEthnitiy-student-copy.pptx-1024x576.jpg" alt="" width="580" height="326" />

&nbsp;

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. Salas had previously published a paper on critical theory, titled, “Critical Theory: Pathway from Dichotomous to Integrated Social Work Practice.” In it, she urges social <a href="https://socialwork.rutgers.edu/file/4791/download" target="_blank" rel="noopener">workers to embrace critical theory in order to accomplish social justice</a> “at all levels of practice.”

Dr. Salas further states that while people of color can hold prejudiced views, they cannot be racist as they have no institutional power in a system that values whiteness. She urges white students in the class to be “allies” in order to help minorities access the resources available to them by way of “white privilege.”

The full audio of the lecture is provided below.

The Professor Watchlist Team reached out to Dr. Salas prior for comment but has not received a response by the time of publication.

<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.” 
“&#8230;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.

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.

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.”

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."

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1276 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-04-14T155457.142-e1618440946562-1024x583.png" alt="" width="580" height="330" />
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.

“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”.
White people are “born human” and then “white parents physically and psychologically ABUSE them” into becoming “white people”. <a href="https://t.co/GOtjrFCC7m">pic.twitter.com/GOtjrFCC7m</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

&nbsp;

Video later emerged of Dr. Leonardo stating in a lecture that "to abolish whiteness is to abolish white people."
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
UC Berkeley education professor Zeus Leonardo: "To abolish whiteness is to abolish white people. That's very uncomfortable perhaps, but it asks about our definitions of what race is and what racial justice might mean."

<a href="https://www.law.berkeley.edu/our-faculty/faculty-profiles/khiara-bridges/#tab_profile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Khiara Bridges</a> is a <a href="https://www.law.berkeley.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of California-Berkeley Law Professor</a>, critical race theorist, and an advocate for abortion. She has further claimed that men can give birth and has refused to say whether unborn babies are worthy of dignity.

Dr. Bridges condemned the Supreme Court ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade.—<a href="https://www.law.cornell.edu/supremecourt/text/19-1392" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dobbs V. Jackson Women’s Health Organization</a>—as an <a href="https://news.berkeley.edu/2022/06/24/khiara-m-bridges-court-abortion-ruling-is-an-assault-on-women-and-democracy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“assault” against both women and democracy.</a> Dr. Bridges further alleged that <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/video/californians-express-outrage-over-roe-163817289.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">banning abortion is a form of racism</a>:

“When you have a law that makes abortion unavailable, you have a law that makes unavailable a service upon which Black people disproportionately rely, so there’s a specific racial impact.”

Since the 1973 ruling, <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/op-eds/since-roe-abortion-has-killed-more-black-babies-than-the-entire-black-population-of-the-u-s-in-1960" target="_blank" rel="noopener">an estimated 20 million black children have been murdered via abortion</a>.

Speaking before a <a href="https://www.c-span.org/video/?521318-1/senate-judiciary-committee-hearing-abortion-access-law" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Senate hearing</a> regarding abortion policy, Dr. Bridges refused to address John Cornyn’s (R-Texas) question regarding disproportionate rates of black abortion. She again refused to answer when asked if an unborn baby has any value.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Cornyn: "Do you think a baby delivered alive has value?"
Demo abortion witness: "Yes."

Cornyn: "Do you think that a baby that is not yet born has value?"

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

&nbsp;

During her testimony, Dr. Bridges referenced “persons with the capacity for pregnancy” when speaking about individuals who sought abortions. When questioned by Senator Josh Hawley (R-Missouri) if she was referring to pregnant women, Dr. Bridges replied that she was referring to all “cis-women, trans-men, and non-binary people.”

When further pressed if abortion is a women’s rights issue, Dr. Bridges accused Hawley of asking questions that exposed “trans people to violence.”

Dr. Bridges then asked Hawley if he believes that men can become pregnant. Astonished, Hawley replied, “No, I don’t think men can get pregnant,” she further accused him of denying that trans people exist.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Hawley: Why are you using the term "person with a capacity for pregnancy" instead of "woman?"
Bridges: "Your line of questioning is transphobic and opens trans people to violence."

Hawley: "You're saying I'm opening up people to violence by saying women can have pregnancies?" <a href="https://t.co/eYaOYumYSJ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pic.twitter.com/Yi46NlQCr0</a>

The phrase, “from the river to the sea”, 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) and alludes to the destruction of Israel—and thus the genocide of the nation’s Jews—between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea. <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/1948/08/02/archives/aim-to-oust-jews-pledged-by-sheikh-head-of-moslem-brotherhood-says.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The chant is thought to 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;
Dr. Jarrar—<a href="https://randajarrar.com/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">who grew up in Egypt and Kuwait</a>—would later reveal that she attended PLO “after-school programs” to learn “resistance songs.”

After experiencing blowback for her remarks, Dr. Jarrar taunted her followers by claiming that she is a tenured professor who makes $100,000 a year and will never be fired.

Her statements were made as a private citizen, not as a representative of Fresno State.”
Dr. Jarrar faced no repercussions and returned to her teaching duties soon-there-after.

The phrase, “from the river to the sea”, 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) and alludes to the destruction of Israel—and thus the genocide of the nation’s Jews—between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea. <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/1948/08/02/archives/aim-to-oust-jews-pledged-by-sheikh-head-of-moslem-brotherhood-says.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The chant is thought to 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."

Dr. Jarrar—<a href="https://randajarrar.com/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">who grew up in Egypt and Kuwait</a>—would later reveal that she attended PLO “after-school programs” to learn “resistance songs.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
As a Palestinian child in the '80s I attended PLO-sponsored after school programs, learned about my history, and sang resistance songs.
As a Palestinian femme in 2021, I karaoke "Toxic" and flog asses and put the BDS in BDSM.

Free Palestine, bitch.<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/pride?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#pride</a>

Ghassan Kanafani, Palestinian novelist and badass. He was assasinated by Israel three years after this.

Her account berates white people as “privileged” and police as members of a “white militia”:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
No lie: I am LIVID to see white authors including women get huge advances and 2nd and 3rd chances with presses when their books don’t change lives the way mine have. IDGAF if that’s conceited. As Remy Ma says, “I’m conceited; I got a reason.”

We must abolish the police.

In other tweets, Dr. Jarrar states that she no longer reads from authors or answers questions from people who are white, or even hosts events for majority white audiences.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
i dont wanna talk about or read about these white dudes anymore. gonna focus on my loves and their work, celebrate their genius, and make our art.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
I no longer do events that are majority white. I will never agree to do an event if I am the only person of color on the panel. I will slap anyone who microagresses. I do not accept questions from the audience if they're not from BIPOC.

Further statements range from <a href="https://www.salon.com/2014/03/18/i_still_cant_stand_white_belly_dancers/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">accusing white belly dancers of cultural appropriation</a> to demanding that all <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=11161" target="_blank" rel="noopener">white editors step down from their positions</a>.

<a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/professor-randa-jarrar-under-fire-for-calling-barbara-bush-a-racist/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In 2018, Jarrar came under fire</a> after tweeting about former first lady, Barbara Bush, after her death. In one tweet about the former First Lady, she called Barbara Bush an “amazing racist” who “raised a war criminal.” In another tweet, she claimed to be “happy the witch is dead.”

After experiencing blowback for her remarks, Dr. Jarrar taunted her followers by claiming that she is a tenured professor who makes $100,000 a year and will never be fired.

When the university was asked to comment, <a href="http://www.fresnostatenews.com/2018/04/24/president-joseph-i-castro-letter-on-conclusion-of-review-regarding-professor/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">President Castro stated</a>, “We share the deep concerns expressed by others over the personal comments made today by Professor Randa Jarrar, a professor in the English Department at Fresno State. Her statements were made as a private citizen, not as a representative of Fresno State.”

Dr. Jarrar faced no repercussions and returned to her teaching duties soon-there-after.

In the midst of the controversy, Dr. Jarrar wrote, “If you really wanna reach me, here’s my number ok?”, before <a href="https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/tempe/2018/04/19/fresno-state-professor-randa-jarrar-prank-floods-asu-hotline-barbara-bush/532486002/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">posting the landline of the ASU crisis line, causing the center to become inundated with calls</a>.

The Professor Watchlist Team reached out to Dr. Jarrar for comment but has not received a reply by the time of publication.
