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

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

— Peter Singer (@PeterSinger) <a href="https://twitter.com/PeterSinger/status/1722440246972018857?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 9, 2023</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

The article Singer referred to states that “[s]ex with animals is a powerful social taboo that exposes its practitioners to utmost indignation and stigma.” The piece also claims, “Many people who have sex with animals do not strictly speaking have a zoophilic orientation, but use animals as surrogates for human sex partners.”
The New York Post <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/11/11/lifestyle/princeton-professor-ignites-outrage-by-calling-journal-article-about-sex-with-animals-thought-provoking-someone-check-his-hard-drive/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">noted</a> that Singer followed up his original post with an essay on Facebook where he clarified:
“I didn’t write the article on the permissibility of zoophilia [but] I am a co-editor for that journal. The fact that we judge an article worthy of publication does not indicate that I or my co-editors agree with the views contained in it…The Journal of Conversational Ideas is free and open access for everyone to read…
“Now imagine that you are an animal living with a person who cares for you and loves you in all the ways that most people love their companion animals, but in addition, this person sometimes has sexual contact with you, making sure that the contact does not hurt you, and leaving you free to move away if you don't like it…”

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

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

According to her University biography, Dr. Taylor is a scholar of racial inequity in public policymaking, and writes “extensively” about race, politics, and “radical activism.”

As a Professor and political commentator, Dr. Taylor offers her opinion across a wide variety of social media platforms and media outlets. She is known to condemn capitalism, the United States, and Israel while lauding socialism and the Soviet Union.

On her personal <a href="https://twitter.com/KeeangaYamahtta" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Twitter account</a>, Dr. Taylor smears Israel as a racial, apartheid state that actively commits genocide against Arabs in the Middle East. In one tweet, she alleges that Israel is attempting to “annihilate” Palestine:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
The consequence of apartheid is not separation, it’s annihilation. End the occupation, free Palestine <a href="https://t.co/2jUOpL3oBq" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://t.co/2jUOpL3oBq</a>

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

In an interview with the progressive news outlet, DemocracyNow, in June of 2020, Dr. Taylor praises the BLM movement’s fight against systemic racism, stating that our nation is witnessing <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMOG-W_X9m8&amp;ab_channel=DemocracyNow%21" target="_blank" rel="noopener">an “uprising” against “racial terrorism” being inflicted upon black Americans by police officers</a>.

According to a <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">study conducted by the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED)</a>, BLM can be linked to 95% of the riots around the country–notably in Summer 2020 following the death of George Floyd. In an analysis of the study, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/">The Federalist</a> found, “of the 633 incidents coded as riots, 88 percent are recorded as involving Black Lives Matter Activists.” The resulting riots were the largest in American history, <a href="https://fee.org/articles/george-floyd-riots-caused-record-setting-2-billion-in-damage-new-report-says-here-s-why-the-true-cost-is-even-higher/#:~:text=Only%20now%20are%20we%20beginning,%241%20billion%20to%20%242%20billion." target="_blank" rel="noopener">causing an estimated $2 billion in damages and 47 deaths.</a>

&nbsp;

In separate Twitter posts, Dr. Taylor has condemned capitalism as being inherently exploitative while promoting the merits of socialism.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
There is no good US capitalism. The so called golden age of capitalism relied on shackling women to the home, bolting LGBT people in the closet, restricting immigration to Europeans, &amp; segregating Black people into resource starved enclaves. Capitalism has always been the problem

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

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

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

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

The article says, “The annual award [established in 1997] honors individuals who have achieved excellence as college/university teachers and mentors in the field of American theater.” The award committee further notes, “Herrera’s personal impact on students is especially resonant for students of color, first generation, and LGBTQ+ students who are buoyed by the ‘representation in action’ that is generated by [his] highly participatory presence.”

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

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

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

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

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

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

The <a href="https://registrar.princeton.edu/course-offerings/course-details?term=1234&amp;courseid=016604" target="_blank" rel="noopener">class description</a> states that the curriculum will “examine Black LGBTQ+ representation across various media including documentaries, television, social media, and literature.”

Atchison’s profile — which can only be found on the class description page — also shows her research “includes gender-based environmental violence, environmental racism/justice, ecofeminism, feminist/queer theology…Black church history…and African American women’s literary criticism.” 

Atchison contributes to a blog called <a href="https://www.antiracistdevotional.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Anti-Racist Devotional</a>. On <a href="https://www.antiracistdevotional.org/dr-gabriel-atchison" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Atchison’s About page</a> she describes herself as a “Black Feminist theologian” and the Congregational Development Director at Trinity Episcopal Church who researches “the role of the church in the racial identity development of Black Episcopalians.”

In her book titled “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B6GQR4FJ/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0?asin=B0B6GQR4FJ&amp;revisionId=ca68030b&amp;format=1&amp;depth=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Are You the Unchurched?: How to Develop an Authentic Relationship with God inside or outside the Church</a>,” Atchison remarked on survey results from a Christian research institute. She said,

“Overwhelmingly, young adults who were studied named hostility toward [LGBTQ+] people as the reason they do not attend church…Based on my understanding of the research, the unchurched are Christians who are:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">College-educated</li>

 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Independently minded…”</li>
</ul>
In the opening paragraph of Atchison’s 2020 blog entry “<a href="https://gabrieljatchison.wordpress.com/2020/11/22/the-folly-of-hope/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Folly of Hope</a>,” she declared,


“Trump exposed all our fault lines due to systemic racism, class exploitation and greed. His initial election and very close re-election should act as a clarion call for us to enact sweeping and lasting social change…”

“Trump has no agenda, but his Puppet Masters do…This election exposed in a raw and unrelenting way, how many people in positions of power feel like people of color simply do not have the right to vote.”

Atchison goes on to identify herself as a “progressive [who finds] Joe Biden significantly inadequate for the task at hand.” She disagrees with any approach Biden may have to unite the nation and she believes the Democratic Party passed up “so many better qualified presidential candidates, with creative ideas…to elect a man whose platform is centrist and apolog[ist].”

<a href="https://history.princeton.edu/people/kevin-m-kruse" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kevin Kruse</a> is a Professor of History and the Director of the Center for Collaborative History at Princeton University. His faculty biography says Kruse “studies the political social, and urban/suburban history of 20th-century America.” He’s also “focused on conflicts over race, rights, and religion…[with] particular interests in segregation and the civil rights movement.”

Kruse has published several manuscripts including a 2005 book entitled “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/White-Flight-Atlanta-Conservatism-Politics/dp/0691133867?asin=0691133867&amp;revisionId=&amp;format=4&amp;depth=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">White Flight: Atlanta and the Making of Modern Conservatism.</a>” Kruse introduces the novel by stating,

“This book explores the causes and course of white flight, with Atlanta serving as its vantage point…While many have assumed that white flight was little more than a literal movement of the white population, this book argues that it represented a much more important transformation in the political ideology of those involved.”

He continued,

“Because of their confrontation with the civil rights movement, white southern conservatives were forced to abandon their traditional, populist, and often starkly racist demagoguery and instead craft a new conservatism predicated on a language of rights, freedom, and individualism.”

In June 2022, <a href="https://freebeacon.com/campus/double-standards-princeton-turns-blind-eye-to-plagiarism-from-woke-professor/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Washington Free Beacon</a> featured Kruse in an article titled “Double Standards: Princeton Turns Blind Eye to Plagiarism From Woke Professor.” According to the Beacon, “On December 6, the economic historian Phillip Magness emailed Princeton’s dean of faculty, Gene Jarrett, with evidence that [Kruse] plagiarized several passages of his 2015 book ‘One Nation Under God.’”

Magness cited passages of Kruse’s book as allegedly originating from a New York Times Article that was published in the mid-1960s. The Beacon said, “The university never replied to Magness’s email…and has not announced an investigation of Kruse.”

“‘While I indicated my intellectual debts to [author] Prof. Baylor else in the text, endnotes and bibliography of the dissertation, I was surprised to see that there was an instance in the introduction [where] I failed to do so properly.’”

<a href="https://sociology.princeton.edu/people/frederick-wherry" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Frederick Wherry</a> is the Class of 1917 Professor of Sociology at Princeton University. In June 2022, he was named the inaugural vice dean for diversity and inclusion by the Office of the Dean of the Faculty.

Princeton’s Office of Communications <a href="https://www.princeton.edu/news/2022/06/30/wherry-appointed-vice-dean-diversity-and-inclusion-princetons-office-dean-faculty" target="_blank" rel="noopener">published Wherry’s appointment</a> in an announcement wherein the university president said, “‘After spending time with Professor Wherry and learning more about the impact and interventions of his scholarship, [and] his profound commitment to educating our students…he struck me as the ideal colleague to augur our efforts in fulfilling the vision of the vice dean for diversity and inclusion.’”

In the same publication, Wherry said,

“‘Diversity and inclusion are critical to our core mission. When our faculty and academic professionals can participate fully in our shared endeavor, we are all able to see problems in new ways, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible, making way for innovation.’”

As the Director of the <a href="https://www.dignityanddebt.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Digntiy and Debt Network</a>, Wherry leads an organization of “experts” who research concepts of “dignity, respect, and fairness” in lending and debt collection. The organization studies debt along racial and socio-economic lines and states one of its goals is “to change the conversation about credit and debt among those measuring financial access and wellness…[b]y developing novel visualizations of dignity and debt…”

Wherry is in favor of canceling student loan debt. He believes borrowers are “victims” while lenders are “perpetrators.”

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

<a href="https://nes.princeton.edu/people/satyel-larson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Satyel Larson</a> is an Assistant Professor of Near Eastern Studies at Princeton University. Larson’s areas of instruction are “Anthropology,” “Law and society,” “The Maghreb” and “Women, gender and sexuality.” Her faculty profile says:
“Her research and teaching lie at the intersections of law, science, technology and society; women, gender and sexuality; reproduction, health and medicine; Islam and secularism; colonialism, postcolonialism and globality; historical anthropology and epistemology; political economy; and language, discourse and narrative.”
Larson <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/princeton-anti-capitalist-class-teaching-black-people-considered-handicapped-systemic-racism" target="_blank" rel="noopener">made headlines</a> for reportedly teaching a course “that claims black people can be considered disabled due to the purported systemic racism they face.” Princeton’s Undergraduate Courses-Fall 2023 <a href="https://nes.princeton.edu/courses">schedule</a> lists Larson as the instructor for “The Healing Humanities: Decolonizing Trauma Studies from the Global South.” The course description says the course:
“Introduces the transdisciplinary field of trauma studies by examining visions of humanity…Reorienting healing as a decolonizing process enables students to re-politicize personal trauma as it intersects with global legacies of violence, war, racism, slavery, patriarchy, colonialism, orientalism, homophobia, ableism, capitalism and extractivism.”

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

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

<a href="https://nes.princeton.edu/people/behrooz-ghamari-tabrizi" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Behrooz Ghamari-Tabrizi</a> is a Professor of Near Eastern Studies, Chair of the Near Eastern Studies Department, and Director of the Sharmin and Bijan Mossavar-Rahmani Center for Iran and Persian Gulf Studies at Princeton University.

In April 2024, Ghamari-Tabrizi signed a “<a href="https://www.dailyprincetonian.com/article/2024/04/princeton-opinion-opguest-faculty-staff-solidarity-palestine-protestors-columbia-barnard-encampment" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Statement of solidarity with Columbia University students from Princeton faculty and staff</a>.” The statement came after student protestors established a “Gaza Solidarity Encampment” on the lawns of Columbia University, disrupting campus operations, sparking safety concerns, and causing classes to be <a href="https://www.tpusa.com/live/columbia-university-moves-classes-online-as-pro-palestine-protests-spark-safety-concerns" target="_blank" rel="noopener">held remotely</a> for the remainder of the semester.

The statement begins:
“We, Princeton University faculty and staff, affirm our solidarity with and support for the Columbia University and Barnard College students who are continuing to demand that the university divest from Israel’s genocide in Gaza and ongoing occupation of the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and other Palestinian land.” 
The signatories have committed to boycotting Columbia University and Barnard College until several demands are met, including:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“We call upon the Columbia University administration to reinstate those students who were wrongfully suspended for exercising their constitutionally recognized right to speech and peaceful assembly.”</li>

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

<a href="https://anthropology.princeton.edu/people/faculty/agustin-fuentes">Agustín Fuentes</a> is a Professor of Anthropology at Princeton University. According to his university profile, Fuentes’ “research focuses on the biosocial, delving into the entanglement of biological systems with the social and cultural lives of humans, our ancestors, and a few of the other animals with whom humanity shares close relations.” 

His profile further states the nature of his research:
“From chasing monkeys in jungles and cities, to exploring the lives of our evolutionary ancestors, to examining human health, behavior, and diversity across the globe, Professor Fuentes is interested in both the big questions and the small details of what makes humans and our close relations tick.”
In April 2024, Fuentes signed a “<a href="https://www.dailyprincetonian.com/article/2024/04/princeton-opinion-opguest-faculty-staff-solidarity-palestine-protestors-columbia-barnard-encampment" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Statement of solidarity with Columbia University students from Princeton faculty and staff</a>.” The statement came after student protestors established a “Gaza Solidarity Encampment” on the lawns of Columbia University, disrupting campus operations, sparking safety concerns, and causing classes to be <a href="https://www.tpusa.com/live/columbia-university-moves-classes-online-as-pro-palestine-protests-spark-safety-concerns" target="_blank" rel="noopener">held remotely</a> for the remainder of the semester.

In May 2023, Fuentes penned an opinion piece for Scientific American titled “<a href="https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/heres-why-human-sex-is-not-binary/?amp;text=Here%27s" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Here’s Why Human Sex Is Not Binary</a>.” He began his article by stating: 
“There are those, politicians, pundits and even a few scientists, who maintain that whether our bodies make ova or sperm are all we need to know about sex. They assert that men and women are defined by their production of these gamete cells, making them a distinct biological binary pair, and that our legal rights and social possibilities should flow from this divide.” 
Fuentes argued that this is “bad science” and that people who believe legal and policy decisions should be made based on sex “are arguing for a specific political, and discriminatory, definition of what is ‘natural’ and ‘right’ for humans based on a false representation of biology.” He went on to claim: 
“Over the past few centuries this process of misrepresentation of biology was, and still is, used to deny women rights and to justify legal and societal misogyny and inequity, to justify slavery, racialization, racism and to enforce multiple forms of discrimination and bias.” 
“Today dishonest ascriptions of what biology is are being deployed to restrict women’s bodily autonomy, target LGBTQIA+ individuals broadly and, most recently, attack the rights of transexual and transgender people.” 
Fuentes concluded his opinion piece: 
“Given what we know about biology across animals and in humans, efforts to represent human sex as binary based solely on what gametes one produces are not about biology but are about trying to restrict who counts as a full human in society.”

Lurie participated in a Columbia University and Barnard College <a href="https://www.columbiaspectator.com/news/2024/04/23/over-100-faculty-members-protest-in-rally-to-support-our-students-and-reclaim-our-university/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">faculty protest</a> titled “Rally to Support our Students and Reclaim our University” after student protesters took over the lawns of Columbia University in April 2024.

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

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

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

Jaipreet Virdi is an Associate Professor at the University of Delaware. <a href="https://www.history.udel.edu/people/faculty/jvirdi" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Her university profile says</a> she’s “a historian of medicine, technology and disability.” Her research and teaching interests include disability history and material/visual culture studies.

Virdi linked her struggles of growing up with a disability to U.S. Senate candidate John Fetterman’s debate performances. Virdi reacted to the public's response in a <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/made-by-history/2022/11/04/john-fetterman-eugenics-stroke-fitness/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Washington Post op-ed</a>. She stated,

“[W]hile some saw Fetterman's halting speech and need for closed captioning as evidence of cognitive impairment, the conversation surrounding his fitness is premised on bias ableism. The polished, articulate and groomed image we associate with the ideal politician…is actually rooted in eugenics.”

She further contended,

“Eugenics simply applied a scientific gloss to exiting race, class and gender prejudices…The eugenic impulse created perceptions about what kind of traits were ‘desirable’ — intelligence, health, appearance and success — and therefore who should reproduce to propagate normal or superior traits, and who shouldn’t.”

In 2020, Virdi <a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/Hearing_Happiness/boBMyAEACAAJ?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">published “Hearing Happiness: Deafness Cures in History”</a> — a nonfiction novel retelling the story of losing her hearing to bacterial meningitis at four years old. In <a href="https://youtu.be/BJWhpB0jMR0">an interview discussing the book</a>, Virdi said,

“Speech is always used as a marker of normality, it’s the expectation that if a deaf person can manage speech, then they can pass as hearing. No one’s going to really notice them. I can’t tell you how many times people have said to me, ‘You speak really well for a deaf person.’”

“What do we expect any citizen in society to do to uphold the standards of normality, like what does a normal citizen look like?

Fair is also known for her vulgar and carnal tweets directed at conservatives. During the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh in the fall of 2018, Fair <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=11369" target="_blank" rel="noopener">launched</a> into a racially tinged tirade on her <a href="https://twitter.com/CChristineFair?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Twitter</a> account, accusing Republicans of enabling a rapist and calling for their castration in a series of tweets,

The publication explained, “The alleged confrontation occurred after an airport security agent pulled Fair aside and summoned a German police officer, as required by law after an X-ray machine at a security checkpoint indicated her luggage might contain explosives.”
It turns out the substances found in Fair’s bags — cosmetics and roll-on deodorant — had exceeded the amount permitted by law enforcement. The Hoya said, “After the police suggested Fair store a roll-on deodorant in her carry-on bag, the police report states Fair reacted aggressively and called the police ‘f–king bastards’ and ‘f–king Nazi police.’”
The Hoya recorded Fair’s response:
“‘The whole thing was a straight-up shakedown. At the end of the day, this officer just did not want a customer service complaint. If I were a white guy, this wouldn’t be happening to me. For example, the cop called me a hippie. Why am I of all people derided as a hippie?’”
Despite corroborating witness statements cited in the police report — as well as accusations that Fair said another passenger had a “Hitler Youth haircut” — Fair denied all allegations. 
After being detained by German police, the report said Fair was fined $260 in legal fees.

<a href="https://www.law.georgetown.edu/faculty/peller-gary.cfm">Gary Peller</a> is a Professor of Law at Georgetown University. After the death of Antonin Scalia, Peller drafted an email in opposition to mourning his death, accusing him of being a bully.

Professor <a href="https://www.law.georgetown.edu/faculty/preston-mitchum/">Preston Mitchum</a> is a law professor at Georgetown University. Though he is widely known for his extremely controversial and extreme opinions, constantly referring to how much he hates cops. Though he may have taken it a step too far with of of his latest, stating, “Yes, ALL white people are racist. Yes, ALL men are sexist. Yes, ALL cis people are transphobic. We have to unpack that. That's the work!”

<a href="https://lannan.georgetown.edu/past-guests/michael-eric-dyson/">Michael Eric Dyson</a> is a Professor of Sociology at Georgetown University.

Dyson has<a href="https://www.wglt.org/post/dyson-isu-white-supremacy-sees-resurgence-under-trump-0#stream/0"> alleged</a> that there has been a “resurgence” of white supremacy under a conservative presidency. In an interview with<a href="https://video.foxnews.com/v/5308799067001#sp=show-clips"> Tucker Carlson</a>, he has also asked for whites to pay reparations to black communities to offset America’s legacy of racism. During a<a href="https://www.c-span.org/video/?445812-1/aurea-foundation-hosts-munk-debate-political-correctness"> debate</a> on political correctness in 2018 with Professor Jordan Peterson, Dyson repeatedly referred to Peterson as just a “mean, mad, old, white, man.” 

Just prior to Independence Day 2019, Dyson appeared on<a href="https://www.mediaite.com/politics/michael-eric-dyson-on-betsy-ross-flag-symbolism-why-dont-we-wear-a-swastika-for-july-fourth/"> MSNBC </a>and compared the iconic Betsy Ross Flag to a Nazi Swastika,

“Well, it hails from the Revolutionary period, of course, of this nation’s founding, which was deeply embroiled in, you know, enslavement, of the owners of slaves…..Right-wing white supremacists have used it as a rallying cry for their own cause.” 

Dyson continued,

“Words matter, symbols matter too. Why don’t we wear a swastika for July Fourth? Because I don’t know, it makes a difference.”

Dyson is also associated with the notorious anti-Semite and Nation of Islam leader, Louis Farrakhan. In 2010, Dyson<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ULAThBZKiM"> participated</a> in a roundtable discussion hosted by PBS with Farrakhan and<a href="http://www.finalcall.com/artman/publish/Minister_Louis_Farrakhan_9/article_7248.shtml"> interviewed</a> him the same year about the economic condition of black communities.

<a href="https://gufaculty360.georgetown.edu/s/contact/00336000014U15mAAC/peter-strzok-ii">Peter Strzok</a> is an adjunct professor at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/news/peter-strzok-hired-to-teach-counterintelligence-at-georgetown-university/">Strzok was recently hired</a> by the Walsh School of Foreign Service and teaches <a href="https://gufaculty360.georgetown.edu/s/course-catalog/a1o1Q00000271IyQAI/ipol32301?id=00336000014U15mAAC">Counterintelligence and National Security.</a>

Strzok—a former counterintelligence agent with the FBI—was known for his lead role in the investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election and former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn.

<a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/declassified-trump-russia-launch-document-authored-by-strzok-and-investigated-by-durham">Strzok launched a counterintelligence operation</a> and obtained multiple warrants to spy on individuals connected to the Trump campaign to determine if the candidate was illegally cultivating ties with Russia. Code-named Operation Crossfire Hurricane, the FBI’s investigation heavily relied on information provided by former British intelligence agent Christopher Steele.

Steele had compiled a series of lurid allegations against then-candidate Trump, alleging liabilities to the Kremlin would allow him to be blackmailed by Russia. Referred to as the Steele Dossier, it was <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/clinton-campaign-dnc-paid-for-research-that-led-to-russia-dossier/2017/10/24/226fabf0-b8e4-11e7-a908-a3470754bbb9_story.html?tid=ss_tw&amp;utm_term=.be21b9cb9402">initially paid for by the Hillary Clinton campaign</a> before being <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/doj-inspector-general-slams-bruce-ohr-for-consequential-errors-in-judgment">ferried by Bruce Ohr</a> of the Justice Department to the FBI. The Obama Administration was <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/news/dni-releases-cia-documents-on-hillary-clintons-plan-to-tie-trump-campaign-to-russia-to-distract-from-email-scandal/">briefed by CIA director John Brennan</a> about Clinton's attempt to use the dossier as an effort to tie the Trump campaign to Russia. The FBI used Steele as an informant to obtain FISA warrants against campaign surrogates George Papadopoulos and Carter Page.

It was later revealed that Steele’s source for the dossier was a <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/fbi-previously-investigated-steele-dossier-source-as-russian-agent">suspected Russian spy</a> and his <a href="https://www.realclearinvestigations.com/articles/2020/07/24/meet_steele_dossiers_primary_subsource_fabulist_russian_at_us_think_tank_whose_boozy_past_the_fbi_ignored_124601.html">allegations were unfounded</a>. Despite Steele being removed by the FBI for his misconduct, this information <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/what-to-expect-from-inspector-general-michael-horowitzs-report-on-alleged-fisa-abuses">was withheld from a FISA court when seeking warrants</a> to surveil Papadopoulos and Page. The FBI claimed that Steele was not the source contained in the application while continuing to rely on his allegations.

<a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/04/15/newly-declassified-papadopoulos-transcript-exposes-crossfire-hurricane-corruption/">Papadopoulos</a> was ultimately never charged with colluding with Russia and the warrants issued for Page have been <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/carter-page-fisa-warrant-lacked-probable-cause-declassified-doj-order-finds">found to lack probable cause for surveillance</a>. A top lawyer working for Strzok has <a href="https://nypost.com/2019/11/22/washington-post-quietly-changes-story-on-altered-russia-probe-document/">pleaded guilty to falsifying information</a> in order to obtain a warrant for Page.

Peter Strzok was also instrumental in setting a perjury trap for General Flynn. Initially a target of Crossfire Hurricane, the Bureau soon closed the investigation over a lack of evidence. Strzok then <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/04/30/breaking-fbi-closed-flynn-case-dubbed-crossfire-razor-in-early-2017-until-strzok-ordered-it-to-stay-open/">intervened and immediately reopened</a> the case in early 2017. Hoping to catch <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/04/29/explosive-new-flynn-documents-show-fbi-goal-was-to-get-him-fired/">Flynn in a lie so that he would be fired</a>, Strzok interviewed Flynn over his recent conversation with the Russian Ambassador regarding sanctions. Despite Strzok or then <a href="https://news.yahoo.com/comey-told-obama-flynn-conversations-154702223.html">FBI director James Comey</a> believing that Fynn had not lied or mischaracterized the interaction, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/05/04/your-guide-to-the-obama-administrations-hit-on-michael-flynn/">the FBI charged Flynn with lying under oath</a>. The resultant trial nearly <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/now-imperiled-case-against-flynn-cost-him-millions-of-dollars-his-house-his-job">bankrupted Flynn’s family</a> and is still ongoing.

Throughout 2016 and 2017, Strzok was texting with fellow agent Lisa Page (of whom he was having an affair with at the time) <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/peter-strzok-trump-smell-hillbillies-1020892">his disdain for Trump supporters</a> and his desire to remove Donald Trump for office, referring to a supposed “<a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/devin-nunes-peter-strzoks-insurance-policy-was-about-carter-page-fisa-warrant">insurance policy</a>” should he win the election. Strzok, then working with Robert Mueller, coordinated with Lisa Page t<a href="https://www.heritage.org/crime-and-justice/commentary/newly-disclosed-strzok-page-texts-shed-new-light-media-leak-strategy">o selectively leak information</a> about investigations to potentially obtain further warrants.

Strzok was soon <a href="https://apnews.com/article/fc94343ce2ace8e855cf7ef7efe9c8bf">removed from Mueller's team</a> once his communications were discovered, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2018/12/13/doj-destroyed-missing-strzok-page-text-messages-before-ig-reviewed-them/">but wiped his phone</a> before it could be reviewed for any further potentially incriminating texts. <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/fbi-agent-peter-strzok-who-sent-anti-trump-tweets-fired-n900161">He was later fired</a> by the FBI and <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/gregg-jarrett-ig-report-shows-fbi-misconduct-and-abuses-in-anti-trump-probe-of-russia-collusion-hoax">excoriated by an Inspector General’s report</a> over his partisan activities on a government-issued phone.

Throughout his career, Strzok has vindictively wielded the power of the state for his own purposes. To this day, he remains unrepentant and has <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/compromised-peter-strzok-on-investigating-the-trump-campaign/">repeatedly defended his actions</a>, even <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Untitled-Houghton-Mifflin-Harcourt/dp/0358237068">authoring a book</a> accusing the president of being compromised by Vladimir Putin.

Strzok’s texts to Lisa Page demonstrate a clear bias against conservatives, extending far beyond mere words. Strzok has repeatedly and flagrantly discriminated against conservatives.

Acting with impunity, Strzok and his team lied, falsified evidence, spied on, and attempted to bankrupt those serving on a presidential campaign that he opposed. As a professor, Strzok will hold the pivotal role of mentoring future leaders of the intelligence and law enforcement community— the same community whose principles he flagrantly violated. He will also hold the grades of his conservative students in a vice, subject to his personal prejudice. As someone that has demonstrated seemingly no prior hesitation in targeting conservatives, there is no reason to believe that Strzok will not place future students in his crosshairs.

Mr. <a href="https://gufaculty360.georgetown.edu/s/contact/0031Q00002Ad6npQAB/josh-ruebner">Josh Ruebner</a> is an adjunct faculty member in the <a href="https://justiceandpeace.georgetown.edu/">Program on Justice and Peace</a> at Georgetown University. According to Georgetown's website, the goal of the Justice and Peace Program is to produce “practically useful scholarships on how to create a more just and peaceful world.” In addition to his teaching roles, Ruebner is a Managing Director for the organization <a href="https://www.ampalestine.org/about-amp/staff">American Muslims for Palestine (AMP)</a>.

Mr. Ruebner has served in the Congressional Research Service (CRS), which provides policy analysis on behalf of committees in both the United States House of Representatives and the United States Senate. As a member of the CRS, Mr. Ruebner co-authored <a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metacrs1535/m1/1/high_res_d/RL30713_2001Jan05.pdf">The Current Palestinian Uprising: Al-Aqsa Intifadah</a>, in which he accuses Israel of disproportionate use of force against Palestinians. Ruebner has also <a href="https://joshruebner.com/jewish-anti-occupation-group-lobbies-u-s/">sponsored</a> congressional staff members on a trip to the West Bank to advocate cutting off economic aid to Israel.

In 2018, Mr. Ruebner authored a book titled <a href="https://www.interlinkbooks.com/product/israel/">Israel: Democracy or Apartheid State?</a> In an event for the book’s release hosted by <a href="https://thejerusalemfund.org/category/pc">The Palestine Center</a>—a Palestinian advocacy organization based in Washington, D.C.—Mr. Ruebner <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqvfPNDwF70&amp;ab_channel=TheJerusalemFund%26PalestineCenter">accuses</a> Israel of enacting policies similar to apartheid-era South Africa.

&nbsp;

Mr. Ruebner previously slandered Israel as an apartheid state in his 2013 book titled <a href="https://joshruebner.com/books/shattered-hopes/order-the-book/">Shattered Hopes: Obama’s Failure to Broker an Israeli-Palestinian Peace</a>. In a promotional interview with the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVcp4FkHcV-YGI7F-MsY-YQ">Portland Media Center</a>, Mr. Ruebner further <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uU1fqAQBozo&amp;ab_channel=PortlandMediaCenter">accuses the United States of complicity in Israel's human rights violations</a>.

[video width="1280" height="720" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Ruebner-We-are-complicit-in-Israels-human-rights-abuses-.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

Mr. Ruebner alleges that terrorist attacks committed against America are directly linked to ties with Israel. In a December 2002 article titled <a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2002/12/10/striking-with-impunity/">Striking with Impunity</a>, he states that America is guilty of war crimes for providing military aid to Israel—claiming Israel uses this equipment to commit human rights abuses. Mr. Ruebner asks the readers in the same article, how many more “towers need to fall?”—in reference to the horrific September 11th terrorist attacks—before America stops supporting Israel.

<a href="https://pediatrics.georgetown.edu/reitman/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. David Reitman</a> is a doctor and Associate Professor in the Department of Pediatrics at <a href="https://www.georgetown.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Georgetown University</a>. In a leaked lecture, Dr. Reitman advocates for administering puberty-blocking drugs to transition gender-dysphoric minors.

Slides from the lecture delivered to incoming medical students by Dr. Reitman—<a href="https://spectatorworld.com/topic/georgetown-catholic-medical-school-hormone-therapy-minors/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">which were obtained by The Spectator</a>—warn that gender dysphoria is a life-threatening condition that often results in suicide. He maintains the only way to treat the depression of transgender minors is through surgery or hormone replacement to “fix” their bodies.

<img class="size-full wp-image-2469 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Screen-Shot-2022-10-31-at-1.56.54-PM.png" alt="" width="534" height="319" />

&nbsp;

Further, Dr. Reitman claims that even infants can understand their true gender identity. He instructs students to determine if their patients may be transgender by asking the child if he/she wants to grow their hair a certain length or play dress-up. 

<img class="size-full wp-image-2465 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Screen-Shot-2022-10-31-at-1.52.29-PM.png" alt="" width="534" height="319" />

<img class="size-full wp-image-2466 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Screen-Shot-2022-10-31-at-1.53.01-PM.png" alt="" width="534" height="319" />

&nbsp;

Dr. Reitman notes that it's optimal to identify gender dysphoria before puberty to begin cross-sex hormone treatment. He states this will prevent “unwanted secondary sex characteristics” and the minor will not have to undergo gender-transition surgeries later in life. 

<img class="size-full wp-image-2467 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Screen-Shot-2022-10-31-at-1.53.48-PM.png" alt="" width="534" height="319" />

&nbsp;

Dr. Reitman then claims the effects of the drugs are fully reversible and puberty can be resumed at any time. While acknowledging these treatments have serious side effects such as loss of bone density, liver damage, and infertility, he still states there is a net benefit.  

<img class="size-full wp-image-2468 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Screen-Shot-2022-10-31-at-1.55.04-PM.png" alt="" width="534" height="319" />

&nbsp;

A common drug used in gender transitions is Lupron, which was <a href="https://www.city-journal.org/hormone-treatments-gender-dysphoric-children" target="_blank" rel="noopener">designed to castrate sex offenders</a>. Even if the dosage is <a href="https://www.commonsense.news/p/top-trans-doctors-blow-the-whistle?s=r" target="_blank" rel="noopener">halted mid-transition, children are still unable to undergo puberty.</a> 

The Spectator further reports that <a href="https://spectatorworld.com/topic/georgetown-catholic-medical-school-hormone-therapy-minors/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Reitman then displayed explicit images of “top” and “bottom” surgeries.</a> This refers to either a double mastectomy (top surgery) or the surgical removal/altering of genitalia (bottom surgery) as part of the transition process.

<a href="https://www.law.georgetown.edu/faculty/dorothy-brown/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dorothy A. Brown</a> is a Professor at Georgetown University. <a href="https://www.law.georgetown.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Brown_CV_June_2022.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">According to her CV</a>, Brown teaches courses on federal income tax, critical race theory, corporate tax

As the author of “<a href="https://www.harvard.com/book/whiteness_of_wealth/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Whiteness of Wealth</a>,” Brown alleges the American tax code was created to prevent black Americans from achieving financial success. As a result, Brown claims that wealth creation was sequestered for white families. 

In 2021, Brown was <a href="https://www.finance.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Professor%20Dorothy%20Brown%20Testimony.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">invited by the Senate Finance Committee</a> to deliver testimony regarding her research. She stated that America still suffers from systemic racism and the tax law only perpetuates racial inequity. She further alleged that Americans bring their racial identities into their tax codes, as the tax law was written alongside Jim Crow laws to benefit whites. 

“What my research has revealed is that because systemic racism is very real, all American taxpayers bring our racial identities onto our tax returns.”

During an interview with the Rockafeller Foundation, Brown further claimed that only “white wealth” can be built in America. 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

Citing college drop-out rates and unemployment amongst blacks, she claimed these and other disparities are proof the tax code exists to benefit white people. 

To alleviate racial inequity, Dr. Brown suggests the following: 

- Levy a “reparations” tax to repay black Americans for past and present discrimination. 

- Mandate companies' self-audit each year in order to ensure they are hiring a proportionate number of employees from each race. 

- Deny white Americans mortgage exemptions if they do not live in a neighborhood where at least 10% of their neighbors are black. 

During the Q&amp;A section of the interview, Brown laments that she cannot adopt an explicitly “pro-black” tax policy, as the Supreme Court would not uphold it. Rather, she admits that her initial proposals will have to target income levels rather than cater to specific races.

Professor Jeff Bernstein, Georgetown University, was a Master of Foreign Service advisory board member. Bernstein made the list after he responded to a Tweet sent out by Allie Stuckey that stated: "The #metoo movement is a symptom of a broken world." Bernstein chose to respond to this Tweet with his own, saying, "Wishing you a #metoo moment. Maybe then you won't be so insensitive." Bernstein has since apologized for the Tweet and has resigned from his position with Georgetown University.

<a href="https://coe.arizona.edu/person/nolan-l-cabrera" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nolan Cabrera</a> is a Professor of Educational Policy Studies and Practice at the University of Arizona. 
In an article for <a href="https://www.tcpress.com/blog/dont-notice-white-students-sitting-quad/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Teachers College Press</a>, titled “Why Don’t We Notice the White Students Sitting Together in The Quad?”, Cabrera accused white students of “perpetuating” racial segregation on campuses, and deems segregation to be a white issue. 
“Racial segregation remains a persistent issue on campuses, and White people are the primary perpetrators of it… Campus segregation, if named accurately, is a distinctly White issue.”
Much of the article addresses certain customs and institutions that are not specific to a non-white race, which are therefore deemed to belong to the white race, according to Cabrera. For instance, he says the following of student unions and certain months:
“Newsflash, there is a White Student Union. It is just called ‘The Student Union.’”
“White History Month traditionally goes by the names of January, March, April, etc.”
In 2019, Cabrera published a <a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/White_Guys_on_Campus/ay5SDwAAQBAJ?hl=en&amp;gbpv=1&amp;printsec=frontcover" target="_blank" rel="noopener">book</a> titled “White Guys on Campus Racism, White Immunity, and the Myth of &#8220;Post-Racial&#8221; Higher Education.” The first chapter contains the title “The Unbearable Whiteness of Being” which is a play on Milan Kundera’s 1984 novel “The Unbearable Lightness of Being.”

In this chapter, Cabrera compares Capitalism to whiteness in the following manner: 
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-3817" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Screenshot-2024-09-20-at-12.31.51 PM-1024x216.png" alt="" width="720" height="152" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Screenshot-2024-09-20-at-12.31.51 PM-1024x216.png 1024w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Screenshot-2024-09-20-at-12.31.51 PM-300x63.png 300w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Screenshot-2024-09-20-at-12.31.51 PM-768x162.png 768w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Screenshot-2024-09-20-at-12.31.51 PM-1200x253.png 1200w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Screenshot-2024-09-20-at-12.31.51 PM.png 1392w" sizes="(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px" />
In 2024, Cabrera wrote a book titled “<a href="https://www.tcpress.com/whiteness-in-the-ivory-tower-9780807769164">Whiteness in the Ivory Tower</a>.”  The publisher’s description states the following purpose of the book: 
“Whiteness is the foundation of racism and racial violence within higher education institutions. It is deeply embedded in the ideologies and organizational structures of colleges and universities that guide practices, policies, and research. The purpose of this book is not to simply uncover these practices but, rather, to intentionally center the harm that Whiteness causes to communities of Color broadly in order to transform these practices.”
In the book, Cabrera describes “whitelash,” which is to him a response to “antiracist victories.” He lists several examples of “whitelash.&#8221; (See excerpt below).
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-3818" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Screenshot-2024-09-20-at-12.32.51 PM.png" alt="" width="755" height="297" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Screenshot-2024-09-20-at-12.32.51 PM.png 1018w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Screenshot-2024-09-20-at-12.32.51 PM-300x118.png 300w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Screenshot-2024-09-20-at-12.32.51 PM-768x302.png 768w" sizes="(max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px" />
Cabrera uses a figure to demonstrate a “theory of whiteness in higher education.” The figure shows how white supremacy is allegedly the “foundational structure of society” which perpetuates white dominance and “anti-BIPOC violence.” Certain aspects of whiteness are listed  and linked to each other and are shown as the cause of anti-BIPOC tendencies among whites. (See image below).

University of Arizona Professor Harris Kornstein — with a drag persona named Lil’ Miss Hot Mess — expanded his child sex education advocacy into the realm of antisemitism when he led children to chant “Free Palestine” during a “queer storytime” event.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Amherst, MA - Valley Families for Palestine puts on ‘Queer Storytime for Palestine’ in which toddlers are recorded chanting “Free Palestine”.
The harsh reality? Members of the LGBTQ+ community are often murdered in Gaza and other Palestinian areas such as Ramallah. <a href="https://t.co/b8qwU4ycR3">pic.twitter.com/b8qwU4ycR3</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

By all news accounts, Kornstein appears unaware that his right to dress in drag would not be protected in most Middle Eastern territories. In particular, queer movements and people are <a href="https://reason.com/2023/10/27/the-contradictions-of-queers-for-palestine/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">persecuted</a> — even to the point of <a href="https://www.jpost.com/opinion/article-720308" target="_blank" rel="noopener">death</a> — in Palestine, and same-sex relationships are <a href="https://www.humandignitytrust.org/country-profile/palestine/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">outlawed</a> in Gaza. 

<a href="https://azfreenews.com/2024/04/university-of-arizona-drag-queen-professor-pushes-children-to-support-hamas/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AZ Free News</a> stated, “Kornstein encouraged a crowd of children to chant ‘Free Palestine!’ as a response to: ‘If you’re a drag queen and you know it’ … Palestinians don’t tolerate LGBTQ+ individuals, especially Hamas. Anyone involved in those lifestyles in the area risks persecution and violence at minimum, even death.”

<a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/drag-queen-orders-children-chant-free-palestine-during-queer-story-hour-massachusetts-arts-center" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fox News said</a>, “The event included ‘dancing, celebrating Palestine culture, learning about queer heroes doing arts and crafts’ … Event profits were donated to alQaws, a Palestinian organization ‘working for queer liberation’ … The event and video sparked harsh backlash online, with many pointing out that LGBTQ people are not usually treated with respect in Gaza or other Palestinian areas.”

Kornstein posted about the event on his <a href="https://www.instagram.com/lilmisshotmess/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Instagram</a> account.

University of Arizona Professor Harris Kornstein performs as a drag queen named “Lil Miss Hot Mess.” <a href="https://campusreform.org/article?id=21548" target="_blank" rel="noopener">His recent appearance</a> at a gay bar in Texas included a drag story hour with elementary-aged minors. Kornstein’s performance caught the attention of a reporter from Turning Point USA’s <a href="https://twitter.com/DrewHLive?s=20">Frontlines w/Drew Hernandez</a> (see below). Despite multiple opportunities to explain why he believes drag shows for underaged children should be normalized, Kornstein refused to respond and proceeded to contact campus security.

Campus Reform featured Harris Kornstein/Lil Miss Hot Mess in an article titled, “<a href="https://campusreform.org/article?id=21548" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of Arizona prof performs drag for kids</a>.” 

The Reform said, “[Kornstein] performed drag for children at Cheer up Charlies, a Texas gay bar…The performance was hosted by drag queen Brigette Bandit and <a href="https://www.dragstoryhour.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Drag Story Hour</a>, an organization that regularly hosts drag queen ‘storytellers’ that use ‘the art of drag to read books to kids in libraries, schools, and bookstores.’”

Campus Reform <a href="https://campusreform.org/article?id=21548" target="_blank" rel="noopener">also stated</a> that Kornstein's "history with child drag shows has previously been the subject of criticism for several children’s books he’s written..." On his <a href="https://www.lilmisshotmess.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">alter-ego's website</a>, Kornstein is donned in drag while posing with children:

<a href="https://pah.arizona.edu/people/harris-kornstein" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harris Kornstein</a> is an Assistant Professor for the Institute for LGBTQ+ Studies at the University of Arizona. 

On his <a href="https://www.harriskornstein.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">website</a>, Kornstein says that “By night, I'm a <a href="https://www.lilmisshotmess.com/">drag queen</a>, and have performed at venues ranging from San Francisco's legendary <a href="https://www.studsf.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Stud bar</a> to SFMOMA, and Stanford University to <a href="https://perezhilton.com/katy-perry-drag-queens-deny-migos-drama-saturday-night-live/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Saturday Night Live</a>.” When in drag, Kornstein goes by the drag name of “Lil Miss Hot Mess.”

Kornstein has written children's storybooks about drag queens. One of these books (published in 2020) is titled “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Hips-Drag-Queen-Go-Swish-ebook/dp/B07XDNJB14" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Hips on the Drag Queen Go Swish, Swish, Swish.”</a> The book’s description states:
“Playing off "The Wheels on the Bus," this nursery rhyme book from a founder of Drag Queen Story Hour is a fun, freewheeling celebration of being your most fabulous self.
"The Hips on the Drag Queen Go Swish, Swish, Swish encourages readers to boldly be exactly who they are. Written by a founding member of the nationally recognized Drag Queen Story Hour (DQSH), this playful picture book offers a quirky twist on a classic nursery rhyme by illustrating all of the ways to "work it". The story plays off "The Wheels on the Bus" as it follows a drag queen who performs her routine in front of an awestruck audience. A fun frenzy of fierceness, this book will appeal to readers of all ages.”

In 2022, Kornstein also published a similar-themed book titled <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Youre-Drag-Queen-You-Know/dp/0762475331" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“If You're a Drag Queen and You Know It.”</a> The book’s description states the following:
“Strike a pose. Blow a kiss. Mouth the words. A fun, sing-along book with a drag twist that encourage kids to embrace all the playfulness of drag culture written by a founding member of Drag Queen Story Hour."
“If you’re a drag queen and you know it, let it show by winking, shaking your bum, laughing real big, twirling around, and more! Join a cast of fabulous drag queens as you sing along to the tune of “If You’re Happy and You Know It” in this playful celebration of expressing your brightest and boldest self. A perfect companion to The Hips on the Drag Queen Go Swish, Swish, Swish written by a board member of Drag Queen Story Hour.”

In 2020, Kornstein and Professor Harper Keenan of the University of British Columbia wrote an article titled, <a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/03626784.2020.1864621">“Drag pedagogy: The playful practice of queer imagination in early childhood.”</a> 

Kornstein and Keenan claim that, “To the unimaginative adult (which – sigh – describes most of us), it might seem that the world of drag and the world of children are impossibly distant from one another.”  

The authors also “propose that DQSH [Drag Queen Story Hour] offers a particular kind of queer framework – what we call drag pedagogy – for teaching and learning that extends beyond traditional approaches to LGBT curricular inclusion.”

Concerning traditional gender roles and sexuality, the authors state their opposition in the following manner:
“In the USA, for example, many people learn that the most valued boy will be white, engage in rough-and-tumble play with other boys that will toughen him up and straighten him out, allowing him to mature into a man who wears a suit and tie, makes a lot of money, enters into a sexually monogamous marriage with a woman, buys a home, and has enough but not too many children. In other words, a script that may begin with gender shapes how individuals are taught to understand their expected roles in society in ways that extend far beyond gender alone. Almost no one can fully conform to the script of gender all of the time.”
The authors think that “Drag Queen Story Hour” (DQSH) “publicly positions its impact in “help[ing] children develop empathy, learn about gender diversity and difference, and tap into their own creativity.”

They also expounded on what they claim is the definition of a drag queen, along with their hopes for the future of DQSH.
 “As an art form, drag is all about bending and breaking the rules, and so its aims are totally different from a normative classroom. When a drag queen enters a (class)room, she [sic] generally intends to draw attention to herself – whether through shock, admiration, or envy of her embodied performance. There is a premium on standing out, on artfully desecrating the sacred.”
In writing the article, the authors wrote that they “are guided by the following question: what might Drag Queen Story Hour offer educators as a way of bringing queer ways of knowing and being into the the education of young children?”

<a href="https://www.geo.arizona.edu/person/jessica-kapp">Dr. Jess Kapp</a> is a lecturer at the University of Arizona. She wrote a blog post called "The Rape of America" where she compared the election of Donald Trump to rape. "He whispers promises of protection with crossed fingers behind his back, and while we prepare to give him a chance, turning our heads from his proven history of lies, he will attack us bareback and ride us until we tear... And just when we think it is going to let up, he will escalate the assault to gang rape.”

<a href="https://eeb.arizona.edu/person/john-wiens">Dr. John Wiens</a> is a Professor of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Arizona. A scholar of extinction and evolutionary biology, Wiens joked that Donald Trump should kill himself over his climate and environmental policies.

<a href="https://linguistics.arizona.edu/user/noam-chomsky">Noam Chomsky</a> is a professor of Linguistics at the University of Arizona and, according to MIT, one of the most <a href="https://news.mit.edu/1992/citation-0415#:~:text=From%201972%20to%201992%2C%20Professor,in%20the%20Science%20Citation%20Index.">cited academics in human history</a>.

In an interview with C.J. Polychroniou, Chomsky <a href="https://truthout.org/articles/trump-in-the-white-house-an-interview-with-noam-chomsky/">states</a> that the Republican party is the “most dangerous organization in human history.” The New Yorker also reports Chomsky's claims that <a href="https://www.newyorker.com/news/q-and-a/noam-chomsky-believes-trump-is-the-worst-criminal-in-human-history">Donald Trump is a worse criminal than Adolf Hitler</a>.

&nbsp;
Socialism
According to the New Criterion, Chomsky frequently <a href="https://newcriterion.com/issues/2003/5/the-hypocrisy-of-noam-chomsky">praised</a> the left-wing government of the Khmer Rouge and has publically disputed the credibility and existence of the Cambodian Genocide. Committed by the Khmer Rouge and its dictatorial head Pol Pot, it is <a href="https://cla.umn.edu/chgs/holocaust-genocide-education/resource-guides/cambodia#:~:text=Lasting%20for%20four%20years%20(between,following%20the%20Cambodian%20Civil%20War.">estimated</a> that at least 1.5 and 3 million people died between 1976 and 1979. Despite <a href="https://gsp.yale.edu/case-studies/cambodian-genocide-program">detailed reports</a> of starvation and systematic executions, Chomsky denied that any widespread killings had taken place and accused reporters of repeating right-wing propaganda and sensationalizing their stories. Chomsky attributes the deaths to US imperialism and executions of subversive elements to the communist government

&nbsp;
Antisemitism
Chomsky publically defends individuals who engage in Holocaust denial. As documented in Robert F. Barskey’s book, “Noam Chomsky: A Life of Dissent,” Chomsky was a <a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=RKUbyYPG4mcC&amp;pg=PA180&amp;lpg=PA180&amp;dq=Dr.+Faurisson+has+served+as+a+respected+professor+of+twentieth-century+French+literature+and+document+criticism+for+over+four+years+at+the+University+of+Lyon+2+in+France.+Since+1974+he+has+been+conducting+extensive+independent+historical+research+into+the+%22Holocaust%22+question.+Since+he+began+making+his+findings+public,+Professor+Faurisson+has+been+subject+to+a+vicious+campaign+of+harassment,+intimidation,+slander,+and+physical+violence+in+a+crude+attempt+to+silence+him.+Fearful+officials+have+even+tried+to+stop+him+from+further+research+by+denying+him+access+to+public+libraries+and+archives.&amp;source=bl&amp;ots=_HNm25wsQ8&amp;sig=ACfU3U1uUzJGs8SMymEsOD-QnXHD08zr8A&amp;hl=en&amp;sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwiT1NHe6IPvAhXGpZ4KHfKoCqoQ6AEwAHoECAMQAw#v=onepage&amp;q&amp;f=false">signatory</a> to a petition in defense of the academic freedom of prominent Holocaust denier Robert Faurisson. <a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=_TIrDwAAQBAJ&amp;pg=PA59&amp;lpg=PA59&amp;dq=noam+chomsky+I+see+no+anti-Semitic+implications+in+denial+of+the+existence+of+gas+chambers,+or+even+denial+of+the+Holocaust&amp;source=bl&amp;ots=-ebdpQUkkR&amp;sig=ACfU3U0wrRkRwN-uGLqdPow6gCDxXd56ug&amp;hl=en&amp;sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwiS-bPWuOXuAhWEBKYKHY_pAYI4FBDoATAAegQIBhAC#v=onepage&amp;q=noam%20chomsky%20I%20see%20no%20anti-Semitic%20implications%20in%20denial%20of%20the%20existence%20of%20gas%20chambers%2C%20or%20even%20denial%20of%20the%20Holocaust&amp;f=false">Stating</a> that he sees nothing antisemitic about Faurisson's work, Chomsky would even author the forward to Faurisson's next book.

September 11 Attacks
Speaking at MIT following the aftermath of the <a href="https://twitter.com/TPUSA/status/1171500948964818944">September 11 terrorist attacks</a> against the United States, Chomsky <a href="http://tech.mit.edu/V121/N52/52chomsky.52n.html">asserted</a> that 9/11 represented, “the guns having been directed the other way.” The Tech, MIT’s oldest newspaper, also reports Chomsky blaming US citizens for the attacks on 9/11, and that Osama bin Laden, leader of al Qaeda, might be innocent.
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1127 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-94-e1614388858415-1024x197.png" alt="" width="580" height="112" />
Chomsky also <a href="https://www.salon.com/2001/09/26/treason_2/">stated</a> that the US casualties were far less devastating than the effects of US foreign policy around the world. Chomsky <a href="https://www.discoverthenetworks.org/individuals/noam-chomsky/">stated</a> that the United States was attempting to murder “3-4 million people” in Afganistan and that the strike against Osama bin Laden was “some sort of silent genocide.”

In an article published in 2020, <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/how-many-people-died-911-thousands-perishing-september-11-related-illnesses-1531058">Newsweek found that</a> “In New York, 2,750 people were killed, at the Pentagon 184 died, and a further 40 people were killed in Pennsylvania.” Newsweek also reported that 400 first responders were killed and that 18,000 survivors have been diagnosed with “9/11-related cancer.”

In the Fall 2021 semester, Ms. Chan will be teaching a Black Lives Matter(BLM)-inspired course that counts towards an English requirement for graduation.

Despite describing themselves as an inclusive, civil-rights organization, BLM embraces radically left-wing policies and tactics. Some of which include the following:

-<a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/blm-pressures-democrats-breathe-act-prison-abolition" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Abolishing prisons</a>

- <a href="https://www.wbur.org/hereandnow/2020/07/17/black-lives-matter-activist" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Abolishing police forces</a>

According to a <a href="https://acleddata.com/2020/09/03/demonstrations-political-violence-in-america-new-data-for-summer-2020/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">study conducted by the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED)</a>, BLM can be linked to 95% of the riots around the country–notably in Summer 2020 following the death of George Floyd. In an analysis of the study, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Federalist </a>found that “of the 633 incidents coded as riots, 88 percent are recorded as involving Black Lives Matter Activists.” The resulting riots were the most destructive in American history, <a href="https://fee.org/articles/george-floyd-riots-caused-record-setting-2-billion-in-damage-new-report-says-here-s-why-the-true-cost-is-even-higher/#:~:text=Only%20now%20are%20we%20beginning,%241%20billion%20to%20%242%20billion." target="_blank" rel="noopener">causing an estimated $2 billion in damages and 47 deaths.</a>

The course is officially titled, “ENGL 101A: #SayTheirNames, a Black Lives Matter Literacy.” Students will be asked to study how American values are connected to “blackness,” and “whiteness.” Ms. Chan will then ask the following:

- How does social media allow for critiques of race, gender, sexuality, and violence?

- What does it mean to say their names as an elegy, an anthem, and a language to give space for talking about Black Lives?

The phrase “Say Their Names” is frequently chanted at BLM protests. The slogan is an attempt, by activists, to draw attention to black men and women who have allegedly been murdered by police. <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/08/28/sen-rand-paul-surrounded-as-diverse-group-of-cops-defends-from-mob/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Senator Rand Paul was assaulted in August of 2020 by a mob yelling “[Brianna Taylor] Say Her Name!</a>”

Taylor, whose name is depicted in the banner of the course’s announcement, was reportedly dealing narcotics with her boyfriend–Kenneth Walker—at the time of her death. <a href="https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2020/09/the_truth_finally_emerges_about_breonna_taylors_death.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Walker opened fire on cops executing a search warrant on his apartment</a>, resulting in Breonna (who was present) dying in the crossfire.

Listed alongside the announcement banner are the course’s assigned texts. Those enrolled are required to read the following:

- Beyonce’s “Formation.” <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2016/02/08/2970258/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The song is a tribute to the Marxist, Black Panther Party</a>.

- Kendrick Lamar’s “Alright.” <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/kendrick-lamar-alright-2016-10?op=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The song is frequently sung at BLM protests</a>.

- Ta-Nehisi Coates’s “A Letter to My Son.” Coates authors a hypothetical letter to inform his son that he will grow up in a country that will <a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2015/07/tanehisi-coates-between-the-world-and-me/397619/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">oppress him because of his skin color</a>.

The course further promises to help students improve their writing skills by crafting a social narrative based on their “own social justice.” The class itself <a href="https://catalog.arizona.edu/policy/foundations-writing-requirement" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fulfills a Foundations Writing Requirement</a> for the University, which students are required to complete in order to graduate.

He has made some films including “<a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0464189/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Screaming Queens: The Riot at Compton's Cafeteria” </a>(2005), and <a href="https://www.disclosurethemovie.com/about" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Disclosure: Trans Lives on Screen” </a> (2020).

In a tweet posted on October 28, 2020, Stryker accused “the right” of “trans-baiting… [by] falsely claiming Biden supports sex changes for 8-year-olds” (see tweet below):
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Had been curious about the dearth of trans baiting this election cycle.

On January 26, 2021, Stryker promoted a seminar series by mentioning the alleged capitol insurrection of January 6, 2021 (see tweet below):
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Stryker is working on a book titled “Changing Gender: A Trans History of North America from Colonization to the Present.” In a November lecture delivered at the <a href="https://flathatnews.com/2022/11/15/distinguished-professor-author-dr-susan-stryker-gives-lecture-on-sex-and-race-classification-in-colonial-anglo-america/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">College of William and Mary</a>, Stryker explained his method in writing the book:
 “I draw from both scholarship and cultural theory to inform the stories that I tell in my book about gender-changing people over the last 400 years, through which I demonstrate how the social system of gender itself has changed over time,” Stryker said. “I build an argument for why, here in the late anthropocene, gender needs to change further still.”

<a href="https://profiles.arizona.edu/person/toomey" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Russ B. Toomey</a> is a Professor of Family Studies and Human Development at the University of Arizona. Toomey was born a biological female who medically "transitioned" to male.

According to Toomey's faculty profile, "[She] teaches undergraduate and graduate courses on adolescent development, human sexuality and advanced graduate-level and applied statistics." Toomey’s lists of "expertise" includes but is not limited to:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">"Sexual orientation and gender diversity: identity development, minority stress, and resilience”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“Intersections of multiple forms of minority stress” </li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“Sociocultural and contextual influences on health and development”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“Adolescent/youth development”</li>
</ul>
In  2021, Toomey wrote an article titled, “<a href="https://www.researchgate.net/publication/350641796_Advancing_Research_on_Minority_Stress_and_Resilience_in_Trans_Children_and_Adolescents_in_the_21st_Century" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Advancing Research on Minority Stress and Resilience in Trans Children and Adolescents in the 21st Century.”</a> She claims that “Transgender and nonbinary children and adolescents bear a disproportionate level of poor health, and adverse developmental and academic outcomes compared to their cisgender peers.” She advocates “for explicit attention in minority stress models with gender-minority youth to the domains of (a) intrapersonal and interpersonal gender dysphoria, and (b) access and use of affirmative and comprehensive health care.”

In another 2021 article titled, <a href="https://www.researchgate.net/publication/356018226_Transgender_Adolescent_Suicide_Behavior" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Transgender Adolescent Suicide Behavior” </a>— which Toomey co-wrote with Amy K Syvertsen and Maura Shramko—an argument is made that “most lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning youths are quite resilient and emerge from adolescence as healthy adults, the effects of stigma and heterosexism can contribute to health disparities.”

In January of 2019, Toomey filed a <a href="https://www.acluaz.org/en/cases/toomey-v-arizona" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lawsuit</a> “against the State of Arizona and the Arizona Board of Regents for denying medically necessary, gender-confirming healthcare to transgender people employed by the state,” according to the ACLU. 

The ACLU stated the details behind the lawsuit and its current outcome:
“The lawsuit asks the Court to remove the health plan’s exclusion for “gender reassignment surgery.” It also seeks the opportunity for all transgender state employees and dependents to have their claims for transition-related surgery evaluated as medically necessary under the same standards and procedures the health plan applies to other medical treatments. On December 23, 2019, Judge Marquez denied Defendants State of Arizona, Andy Tobin and Paul Shannon’s Motion to Dismiss, and class certification was granted on June 15, 2020. Plaintiff filed a Motion for Preliminary Injunction on September 1, 2020 which has been fully briefed by the Parties. The Court has taken the motion under advisement.”
“During the discovery process, the State of Arizona appealed a ruling by the trial court that the state had to turn over certain documents. On April 14, 2022, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals denied the State of Arizona’s petition, and litigation proceedings will continue.”

<a href="https://coe.arizona.edu/person/julio-cammarota" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Julio Cammarota</a> is a Professor of Education at the University of Arizona. According to his faculty biography, “His research focuses on participatory action research with Latinx youth, institutional factors in academic achievement, and liberatory pedagogy.”

Cammarota’s profile also says he “has been instrumental with advancing social justice in education and youth development.” Julio has published over thirty peer-reviewed journal articles, with the bulk of them centered around equity, race, and critical education theories.

Since its birth, Critical Theory has been reserved for college campuses and postgraduate courses, but Julio Cammarota can be credited for bringing it into secondary schools. In his 2006 article, co-authored by <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/augustine-romero-5744703b/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Augustine Romero</a>, titled, “<a href="https://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/EJ759647.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A Critically Compassionate Intellectualism for Latina/o Students: Raising Voices Above the Silencing in Our Schools</a>,” Julio details how he developed “an alternative, social justice pedagogy in a high school located in Tucson, Arizona.” He describes the course further, saying:
“The school principal allowed us to work with a cohort of 20 Latina/o students during their junior and senior years, teaching them the state’s social studies requirements but adjusting the content and pedagogy in ways that facilitated the students’ critical consciousness around racial inequalities affecting their educational and general life experiences.”
Julio cited Paulo Freire on fourteen separate occasions within that same article. Freire is credited as one of the founders of modern day critical pedagogy, and Professor Cammarota works alongside the <a href="https://freireproject.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Freire Project</a> and other critical educators to advance his ideas.

Professor Cammarota’s most notable contribution to date, “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/-/es/Julio-Cammarota/dp/0816513414" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sueños Americanos: Barrio Youth Negotiating Social and Cultural Identities</a>,” is described as a study on:
<ul>
 	<li>“How gender influences social relationships and life choices.”</li>
 	<li>“How Latinos and Latinas try to maintain their distinct ethnic identity while attempting to transcend marginalization.”</li>
 	<li>“Whether the Latino culture helps young people work hard for their families and for a better future.”</li>
 	<li>“How the connections and disconnections among work, family, and school constitute formative processes that shape the cultural identities of Latino youth.”</li>
 	<li>“Concludes with a discussion of social justice education for Latino youth and how this educational approach meets their academic needs while providing opportunities for self-determination and community activism.”</li>
</ul>
Julio is also very active on his social media where he posts about politics and music among other things:<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3076" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/265742BE-8306-4974-919A-C624AF41EA6F.jpeg" alt="" width="685" height="554" />

According to her university profile, Dr. Kraehe also serves as the Associate Vice President for<a href="https://arts.arizona.edu/sections/equity/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Equity in the Arts</a> as well as the co-founder and co-director of the<a href="https://arts.arizona.edu/racial-justice-studio/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Racial Justice Studio</a>. Both organizations are part of UA’s diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives.

Dr. Kraehe’s profile also says she “employs interdisciplinary theories and methodologies that draw from the social sciences, visual and cultural studies, critical race theory, women of color feminisms, and justice studies.”

Dr. Kraehe co-edited "<a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/The_Palgrave_Handbook_of_Race_and_the_Ar/VvBjDwAAQBAJ?hl=en&amp;gbpv=1&amp;dq=The+Palgrave+Handbook+on+Race+and+the+Arts+in+Education&amp;printsec=frontcover" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Palgrave Handbook on Race and the Arts in Education"</a> in which the authors claimed:

“Dominant understanding of ‘the arts’ and what it means to be an artist are profoundly shaped by racial logics and racial assumptions. Yet, because racism is foundational to Eurocentric understandings of culture and cultural production, it is always implicit in how the arts and artists are recognized and valued.”

In chapter one of their forthcoming book, “<a href="https://www.davisart.com/sites/default/assets/File/race-and-art-education-chapter-one.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Race and Art Education</a>,” Dr. Kraehe and her co-author wrote that despite major cultural changes in the art field:

“There remains a third rail for many art educations—'big ideas’ and topics that are too emotionally and politically charged to go near. . As non-White women who have been engaged in art and art education for more than 50 years combined, we believe that third rail is race—or more precisely, racism.”

Her faculty profile says she teaches “a wide variety of courses, including courses in American and British literature, film, critical theory, sexuality studies and cultural studies.” Klotz’s research interests encompass “queer theory,” “Marxist theory” and “the relationship between colonialism and modern racism.”

For the Spring 2024 semester, Klotz is scheduled to teach “Special Topics in Women’s Studies” and “Introduction to LGBTQ and Queer of Color Texts.” The latter <a href="https://gws.arizona.edu/course/englgws-351a-introduction-lgbtq-and-queer-color-texts" target="_blank" rel="noopener">course description</a> simply states, “Survey with emphasis on writers in their literary and historical contexts.

Truthout said, “Hundreds of academics from universities and institutions of higher learning … from across North America have signed on to a joint letter, calling on their governments to demand Israeli ceasefire in Gaza … The signers, calling themselves ‘Educators for Palestine,’ are Palestinian academics and their allies who denounce Israel’s genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.”

“We have paid careful attention to consistent invocations of children in public officials’ responses to and media portrayals of the attack in Israel on October 7, which took 1400 lives.

<a href="https://coe.arizona.edu/person/nolan-l-cabrera" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nolan Cabrera</a> is a Professor of Educational Policy Studies and Practice at the University of Arizona. 

In an article for <a href="https://www.tcpress.com/blog/dont-notice-white-students-sitting-quad/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Teachers College Press</a>, titled “Why Don’t We Notice the White Students Sitting Together in The Quad?”, Cabrera accused white students of “perpetuating” racial segregation on campuses, and deems segregation to be a white issue. 

“Racial segregation remains a persistent issue on campuses, and White people are the primary perpetrators of it… Campus segregation, if named accurately, is a distinctly White issue.”

Much of the article addresses certain customs and institutions that are not specific to a non-white race, which are therefore deemed to belong to the white race, according to Cabrera. For instance, he says the following of student unions and certain months:

“Newsflash, there is a White Student Union. It is just called ‘The Student Union.’”

“White History Month traditionally goes by the names of January, March, April, etc.”

In 2019, Cabrera published a <a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/White_Guys_on_Campus/ay5SDwAAQBAJ?hl=en&amp;gbpv=1&amp;printsec=frontcover" target="_blank" rel="noopener">book</a> titled “White Guys on Campus Racism, White Immunity, and the Myth of "Post-Racial" Higher Education.” The first chapter contains the title “The Unbearable Whiteness of Being” which is a play on Milan Kundera’s 1984 novel “The Unbearable Lightness of Being.”

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-3816" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Screenshot-2024-09-20-at-12.27.25 PM.png" alt="" width="711" height="487" />

In this chapter, Cabrera compares Capitalism to whiteness in the following manner: 

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-3817" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Screenshot-2024-09-20-at-12.31.51 PM-1024x216.png" alt="" width="720" height="152" />

In 2024, Cabrera wrote a book titled “<a href="https://www.tcpress.com/whiteness-in-the-ivory-tower-9780807769164">Whiteness in the Ivory Tower</a>.”  The publisher’s description states the following purpose of the book: 

“Whiteness is the foundation of racism and racial violence within higher education institutions. It is deeply embedded in the ideologies and organizational structures of colleges and universities that guide practices, policies, and research. The purpose of this book is not to simply uncover these practices but, rather, to intentionally center the harm that Whiteness causes to communities of Color broadly in order to transform these practices.”

In the book, Cabrera describes “whitelash,” which is to him a response to “antiracist victories.” He lists several examples of “whitelash." (See excerpt below).

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-3818" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Screenshot-2024-09-20-at-12.32.51 PM.png" alt="" width="755" height="297" />

Cabrera uses a figure to demonstrate a “theory of whiteness in higher education.” The figure shows how white supremacy is allegedly the “foundational structure of society” which perpetuates white dominance and “anti-BIPOC violence.” Certain aspects of whiteness are listed  and linked to each other and are shown as the cause of anti-BIPOC tendencies among whites. (See image below).

<a href="https://english.arizona.edu/person/marcia-klotz" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Marcia Klotz</a> is an Assistant Professor in Gender and Women’s Studies at the University of Arizona. Her faculty profile says she teaches “a wide variety of courses, including courses in American and British literature, film, critical theory, sexuality studies and cultural studies.” Klotz’s research interests encompass “queer theory,” “Marxist theory” and “the relationship between colonialism and modern racism.”
For the Spring 2024 semester, Klotz is scheduled to teach “Special Topics in Women’s Studies” and “Introduction to LGBTQ and Queer of Color Texts.” The latter <a href="https://gws.arizona.edu/course/englgws-351a-introduction-lgbtq-and-queer-color-texts" target="_blank" rel="noopener">course description</a> simply states, “Survey with emphasis on writers in their literary and historical contexts.

In 2014, when Klotz taught courses at Portland State University, her apparent obsession with pornography resulted in a lawsuit against the college. <a href="https://www.huffpost.com/entry/portland-state-sued-university-bdsm-model_n_5283337" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Huffington Post reported</a>, “[A former student] alleges then-assistant professor [Klotz] persuaded her into discussing personal issues about her past sexual abuse when she took Klotz’s course ‘The Erotics of Power.’”
Huffington Post continued, “The university concede[d] in a <a href="https://media.oregonlive.com/education_impact/other/PSUanswer.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">court filing</a> that Klotz exchanged more than 200 emails with [the former student] from 2009-2012, many of which about sexual topics…”

In 2018, Klotz posted her support for Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS), <a href="https://bdsmovement.net/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">an antisemitic movement</a> that claims to “[work] to end international support for Israel’s oppression of Palestinians.”

According to her Riley Children’s Health <a href="https://www.rileychildrens.org/find-a-doctor/physician/caroline-e-rouse">profile</a>, Dr. Rouse “is a maternal-fetal medicine specialist with expertise in caring for expectant mothers and their unborn babies.”
In September 2023, Dr. Rouse <a href="https://www.indystar.com/story/opinion/2023/09/01/america-abortion-debate-indiana-is-crossroads-bleak-future/70727114007/">wrote an op-ed</a> with colleague Dr. Sherrine Ibrahim titled, “Indiana is the crossroads of America’s abortion debate and our future is bleak.” The authors condemn Indiana’s August 2023 <a href="https://iga.in.gov/legislative/2022ss1/bills/senate/1/details">abortion law</a>, which criminalizes abortion after 20 weeks and medication abortions after 8 weeks. They argue that “abortion is a critical health care service” and claim exceptions for rape, incest, and to protect the life of the mother are not enough. They state:
“Health care practitioners continue to express that exceptions are too nebulous to follow and apply to actual clinical situations. These laws back us into a corner, forcing us to decide if we are willing to risk large fines, loss of licensure, and even imprisonment in order to provide necessary, life-saving, health care.” 
They conclude their op-ed by writing:
“Decisions regarding pregnancy do not belong in the state Capitol. They belong with patients and their health care practitioners. … If our political leaders allow the abortion ban to stay in place, Indiana’s future is bleak.” 
<a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article?id=23954">Campus Reform</a> reports that Dr. Rouse has previously been accused of “skirting state laws:”
“Voices for Life, a pro-life organization headquartered in South Bend, Indiana, filed a complaint against her on Jan. 23 of this year for performing a pill abortion on a woman who was 21 weeks pregnant, according to a termination of pregnancy report. At the time, state law only permitted pill abortions up to eight week postfertilization.” 
Melanie Lyon, Executive Director of Voices for Life, stated:
“Dr. Rouse advocates for the safety of mothers and children one day, while the next she ends babies’ lives by performing abortions at Riley Maternity Tower. That along with her apparent illegal activity makes her someone the State should hold accountable: not look to for guidance.”

Dr. Caitlin Bernard is a physician affiliated with IU Health and an <a href="https://medicine.iu.edu/faculty/23008/bernard-caitlin" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Assistant Professor of Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology at the IU School of Medicine.</a> Dr. Bernard is one of the few doctors in Indiana who has specific training in second-trimester abortions and she <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2022/07/28/us/politics/abortion-doctor-caitlin-bernard-ohio.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">performs both surgical and medication abortions several days a month at Planned Parenthood</a> clinincs in Indiana and Kentucky.

On June 24, 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court voted to overturn Roe v. Wade. Hours after this decision, the state of Ohio outlawed any abortion after six weeks. A few days later, Dr. Bernard gained national media attention for providing an abortion to a 10-year-old girl who was pregnant from rape by an illegal immigrant. The girl traveled from Ohio when she was just over six weeks pregnant.

Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita announced that an <a href="https://fox59.com/news/national-world/indiana-attorney-general-threatens-license-of-doctor-who-provided-abortion-to-10-year-old-rape-victim/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">investigation into Dr. Bernard had begun</a>, stating:
“Aside from the horror caused by illegal immigration, we are investigating this situation and waiting for the relevant documents to prove if the abortion and/or the abuse were reported, as Dr. Caitlin Bernard had requirements to do both under Indiana law. The failure to do so constitutes a crime in Indiana, and her behavior could also affect her licensure. Additionally, if a HIPAA violation did occur, that may affect next steps as well. I will not relent in the pursuit of truth.” 
Dr. Bernard’s attorney, Kathleen DeLaney, has <a href="https://www.wthr.com/article/news/health/indiana-doctor-who-provided-abortion-for-10-year-old-files-claim-for-damages-against-indiana-ag-caitlin-bernard-todd-rokita/531-b2c2ba9c-ed3e-4600-906c-e7603cc8eb5a" target="_blank" rel="noopener">filed notice of a tort claim against AG Rokita for defamation.</a> Rokita says that his “comments are supported by facts” but will not provide additional details at this time. As of September 1, Rokita said the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20220914171551/https://www.indystar.com/story/news/health/2022/09/14/indiana-attorney-general-todd-rokita-office-declines-to-share-info-on-dr-bernard-complaints/69493958007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">investigation was “ongoing.”</a>
&nbsp;
Updated - June 12, 2023
On May 25, 2023, the Indiana Medical Licensing Board reprimanded and fined Dr. Bernard after they determined, in a 4-1 vote, that she <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/med-professor-fined-over-abortion-of-10-year-old-girls-baby/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">violated federal and state patient privacy laws</a>. Dr. Bernard told <a href="https://www.indystar.com/story/news/health/2022/07/01/indiana-abortion-law-roe-v-wade-overturned-travel/7779936001/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Indianapolis Star</a> that she was providing an abortion to a 10-year-old from Ohio, prior to seeing the patient.

After Attorney General Todd Rokita filed a complaint against Dr. Bernard in November 2022, the board found her liable on three counts of violating patient privacy laws. During <a href="https://www.wfyi.org/news/articles/caitlin-bernard-violated-patient-privacy-abortion-patient-case#:~:text=May%2025%2C%202023,reprimand%20over%20any%20harsher%20punishment." target="_blank" rel="noopener">the hearing</a>, Deputy Attorney General Cory Voight asked Bernard whether it was true that, had she not spoken to the Star, “we wouldn’t be sitting here today?”

Bernard disagreed, saying, “I think that if the attorney general, Todd Rokita, had not chosen to make this his political stunt, we wouldn’t be here today.”

Attorney General spokesperson Kelly Stevenson counted the board’s decision as a win for patient privacy, commenting, “It’s not right and the facts were presented today that made that very clear.”

However, the board unanimously sided against the attorney general by dismissing two other allegations against Dr. Bernard. <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/26/us/dr-caitlin-bernard-indiana-medical-board-hearing/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CNN</a> reports the board determined “she did not violate laws requiring physicians to immediately report suspected child abuse and keep abreast of mandatory reporting and patient privacy laws.”

Dr. Bernard will be fined $3,000 and will receive a letter of reprimand, which agreed to allow her to continue practicing medicine.

Board President Dr. John Strobel said, “I don’t think she expected this to go viral. I don’t think she expected this attention to be brought to this patient.” He added,
“I think she’s a good doctor and I think she’s safe to go back to practice.”

<a href="https://law.indiana.edu/about/people/details/thusi-i.-india.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">I. India Thusi</a> is a Professor of Law at the Indiana University Maurer School of Law. According to her university profile, her research examines “racial and sexual hierarchies as they relate to policing, race, and gender.”

Professor Thusi is a Senior Scientist at the <a href="https://kinseyinstitute.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kinsey Institute</a>, previously known as the Kinsey Institute for Sex Research. The institute is named after Alfred Kinsey, who published a book during his tenure there titled “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Sexual-Behavior-Human-Alfred-Kinsey/dp/0253334128" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sexual Behavior in the Human Male</a>.”

This book features several charts that <a href="http://stopthekinseyinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/BRIEF_The-Kinsey-Institute-Exposed_A-Warning-to-Parents-and-Governments_52014.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">document the “sexual responses” of children</a> from infants through teens.

In February 2023, the Indiana House voted 53-34 to <a href="https://indianacapitalchronicle.com/briefs/house-votes-to-strip-ius-kinsey-institute-of-state-funding/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">prohibit state dollars</a> from going to the Kinsey Institute over concerns with the institute’s namesake. Further concerns were brought from Representative Cindy Ledbetter who said her job as a nurse practitioner has required her to take training from the Kinsey Institute on <a href="https://www.indystar.com/story/news/politics/2023/03/08/5-bills-targeting-transgender-rights-indiana-general-assembly/69936310007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">how to administer gender-affirming medications</a> to transgender children.

As part of her work with the institute, Professor Thusi <a href="https://deliverypdf.ssrn.com/delivery.php?ID=502127090083070016029094123083082089097086084036020059023084068071008116118082029119033028006123050113058084074003090109014024062005008023034102026108125025084006116021035085100086078121019124067017092122108127109103076092012015089065084025102004005105&amp;EXT=pdf&amp;INDEX=TRUE" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote a paper discussing “reality porn,”</a> which she defines as “sexually explicit materials or experiences that are facilitated through online virtual platforms.” She further defines the term by clarifying that these sexual experiences would typically “fit within the legal definition of prostitution in most states because they involve sexual conduct in exchange for a fee - but that are expressive in nature.”

Thusi writes, ”Reality porn is pornographic paid sex work that should be accorded First Amendment recognition, notwithstanding the criminalization of the underlying act of prostitution.” She notes that she has “previously argued that all forms of sex work should be decriminalized” and she extends the same argument to reality porn.
“As long as this conduct is consentable - both consented to in face and consensual in nature - it should not be deprived of constitutional protection.” 
Thusi wrote an op-ed for <a href="https://thehill.com/opinion/civil-rights/586608-its-time-to-stop-policing-womens-bodies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Hill</a> titled, “It’s time to stop policing women’s bodies.” She believes, “Decriminalized sex work and access to abortion allow women in economic precarity [to] escape destitution.” She also argues:
“Feminists should embrace a definition of sexual freedom that goes beyond the right to prevent reproduction and which focuses on women’s sexual autonomy - including the autonomy to end a pregnancy or to profit from how women use their own bodies.”

Abortion is a healthcare procedure that can be life-saving for some people.”

After Roe v.

Dr. Scott <a href="https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2022/08/10/1116024857/young-obgyns-indiana" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claims the residents</a> in the program are “devastated” by the Roe v.

In response, the program will begin sending residents to Illinois to receive abortion training. However, she says:
“This is not as simple as just showing up in an office and saying, ‘Can I observe?’ This includes getting a medical license for out-of-state trainees. This includes funding for travel and lodging. It adds a lot to what we already do to educate future OB-GYNs.” 
Dr. Scott is concerned that the overturn of Roe v. Wade will affect the quality of candidates that are interested in Indiana University’s School of Medicine. She says “there’s no other specialty that is legislated to the degree that obstetrics and gynecology is,” and <a href="https://www.indystar.com/story/news/health/2022/06/30/indiana-doctors-nurses-medical-students-rally-abortion-rights-downtown/7777837001/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claims</a>:

Dr. Neal stated:
“Excellence in diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice elevates all members of our medical school community. As the largest medical school in the country, we have a responsibility to be leaders in health equity and inclusive excellence. To do that, DEIJ must be woven into all aspects of what we do—research, education, patient care, faculty and staff affairs, and community engagement.”

She says:
“That is a big priority because of the direct relationship to health equity outcomes and organizational success. Meeting this priority will take a multifaceted approach that involves all aspects of our mission from culture to climate to research to education.

He also teaches Middle Eastern Studies and publishes works dealing with “public attitudes towards Muslim immigration” and the “Islamist parties’ participation in elections.”

In January 2024, Sinno was featured in the <a href="https://www.insidehighered.com/news/faculty-issues/shared-governance/2024/01/11/indiana-u-sanctions-professor-supporting-pro" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Inside Higher Ed article</a>, “Indiana U Sanctions Professor Who Advised Pro-Palestinian Students.” Sinno’s guest speaker was pro-Palestinian activist <a href="https://mikopeled.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Miko Peled</a>, who has called for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) against Israel. According to his website, Peled also advocates for “the creation of one democratic state with equal rights for Israelis and Palestinians” despite the <a href="https://embassies.gov.il/holysee/AboutIsrael/the-middle-east/Pages/The%20Hamas-Covenant.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">genocidal goals</a> of the Palestinian government.

Inside Higher Ed said:
“Sinno booked the event space on November 6 without issue. But on November 15 … [a U.S. representative] sent a strongly worded letter to IU president Pamela Whitten, raising questions about alleged incidents of antisemitism on campus … That evening, Sinno said, his department chair told him to cancel the room reservation because he’d allegedly violated university policy by listing the department as the event sponsor.”

<a href="https://merrill.umd.edu/directory/deneen-brown" target="_blank" rel="noopener">DeNeen Brown</a> is an Associate Professor of Journalism at the University of Maryland who has vowed to leave America over systemic racism and oppression.
In a Washington Post op-ed—titled, “<a href="https://archive.ph/Kxlhi" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Case for Leaving America to Escape Racism</a>”—Dr. Brown reveals that she grew up in the black power movement as she “never really felt at home in America.&#8221; She then recounts an alleged racial incident in elementary school in which she describes her white classmates as “oppressors” and vows never to internalize their racism.
This would later inspire her work as a journalist to document racism and Black people whom she claims still suffer under “economic, political, and cultural oppression.” This is reflected in another article in which Dr. Brown alleges that <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2021/08/08/modern-day-mississippi-lynchings/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">racially-motivated lynchings are a regular occurrence, but provides no evidence to verify her claims</a>.
Dr. Brown explains she began looking for a new place to live abroad after state legislators across the county banned teaching critical race theory in schools. Further citing her concern over the eruption of “racist terror” embodied by January 6th “insurrectionists,” Dr. Brown expresses a desire to live in a country without “entrenched racism” where she has the freedom “to move among people who look like me.”
Dr. Brown further expresses a desire to live in a place where she will not have to discuss her nation’s racism. In a previous Washington Post op-ed, she lamented how<a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/06/17/black-people-are-tired-trying-explain-racism/?itid=ap_deneenl.brown" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> black people at large are “exhausted” over explaining racism to white people</a>. In separate tweets, she further explains the burden of racism must be placed at the feet of white society and urges others to study radicals like Che Guevara to learn how to do so.

<a href="https://wgss.columbian.gwu.edu/ashwini-tambe" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ashwini Tambe</a> is a Professor of History at George Washington University. Her faculty profile says, “Dr. Tambe is a scholar of transnational South Asian history who focuses on the relationship between law, gender, and sexuality. She is also the Editorial Director of <a href="https://www.feministstudies.org/home.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Feminist Studies</a>, the oldest journal of interdisciplinary feminist scholarship in the United States.”

<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Defining-Girlhood-India-Transnational-Maturity-ebook/dp/B081JQQLKX/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1XWJWVVP9KFFJ&amp;dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.kgw37bJcX_xfYQjs5Tv8kg.CC4PMau89w_XcZ-qvCr4dEVPlZgjVc02HRvroaj47Z4&amp;dib_tag=se&amp;keywords=defining+girlhood+in+india&amp;qid=1722029284&amp;sprefix=defining+girlhood+in+india%2Caps%2C119&amp;sr=8-1&amp;asin=B081JQQLKX&amp;revisionId=59439648&amp;format=3&amp;depth=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In her book</a> titled “Defining Girlhood in India: A Transnational History of Sexual Maturity Laws,” Tambe answers the question, “At what age do girls gain the maturity to make sexual choices.” She claimed the book “focuses on legal standards for sexual maturity for girls in India and explores how and why these standards changed over the course of the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.” (The age of consensual sex in India is 18.)

In the introduction, she said:
“Strong views dictate the ages at which one can consent to sexual activity, or marry, or transact in sexual services … Sexual age laws are complex matters largely because they are meant to signal social standards for sexual maturity. Age is usually a blunt metric for measuring such maturity … Like legal standards on other sexual practices, such as same-gender marriage and widow remarriage, the age of marriage has come to serve as an index of moral hierarchies among nations.” 
In an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCNIVtu_hv0&amp;t=147s" target="_blank" rel="noopener">interview with CGTN America</a>, Tambe discussed “rape culture” and levels of sexual violence among men. At one point, she appeared to suggest that women may play a role in these assaults, stating:
“I think the problem is also not one that is exclusive to men. Actually, I think people in general — women, mothers, mothers-in-law — do enforce certain ideas about what it means to be honorable, what it means to be respectable, notions of how to conduct oneself in public that are actually a part of the problem. So, I would also argue that we shouldn’t just be pointing fingers at men.”

Tambe et al. said:
“We put the finishing touches on this book during a moment of remarkable civil protests against anti-[b]lack violence. The unprecedented scale of multiracial public demonstrations across large cities and rural areas in the United States revealed a swell in support for dismantling systemic racism … These protests also took place amid the raging COVID-19 pandemic, an experience that has underscored a sense of connectedness across hierarchies of geopolitics.”

<a href="https://sllc.umd.edu/directory/tatiana-chi-miranda" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tatiana Chi-Miranda</a> is a Ph.D. Student and Spanish teacher at the University of Maryland, College Park. 

During an interview with <a href="https://dbknews.com/2022/11/21/umd-spanish-professors-add-anti-racism-curriculum/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Diamondback</a>, Chi-Miranda explained how she incorporates anti-racism into her curriculum. Although her Spanish language classes focus on grammar and composition, she admitted the modules are used to discuss racism and phobias:  

“[This] is a great introduction for the anti-racism module because it allows one to establish a personal connection to the text, but also it allows them to get a critical approach to it. And it opens doors for them to have a critical attitude and cultural approach to it,” 

Chi-Miranda provided one module to The Diamondback in which her students pretend to dislike diversity. She said this was an example of xenophobia  and recited the following line:  

“I don’t want you to make friends with other cultures nor do I want you to enjoy the diversity of the world.” 

A sophomore who was interviewed by Diamondback  praised the initiative, stating that American schools have a “whitewashed curriculum:” 

“I think that’s really important because America has a tendency to leave out certain parts of history in their textbooks and teach a very whitewashed curriculum, so it is really important that Maryland and these professors are acknowledging that we have kind of neglected several important parts of history.”

Chi-Miranda’s comments were delivered in an article featuring six Spanish professors who also integrated anti-racist themes into their courses. One professor, Jose Magro, stated this is part of an attempt to put an end to the “colonized learning” that takes place at the university.

In a substack article titled, “<a href="https://weaponizedspaces.substack.com/p/violent-extremism-in-america-is-a" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Violent extremism in America is a far-right phenomenon</a>,” she writes that attacks by right-wing groups are “surging” and outpace left-wing and Islamist violence. Orr further claims that any who suggest otherwise are attempting to distract from the burgeoning connections between extremists and mainstream conservative groups:  

“Violent extremism is overwhelmingly a problem of far-right extremism, not far-left extremism, and it doesn’t help anyone to misrepresent the threat by turning it into a “both sides” issue when the sides are not even close to equal.”

Elsewhere, not only does Orr dismiss the existence of left-wing violence, she attempts to excuse it. In a separate article, titled “<a href="https://medium.com/arc-digital/in-defense-of-antifa-62c699d86dc5" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In Defense of Antifa</a>,” she condemns conservatives for attempting to “vilify” the group:

“It’s easy to see why far-right extremists have worked so hard to vilify antifascists, who represent the most consistent opponents of far-right extremism and the most steadfast allies of those targeted by far-right violence.”

At first, Orr denies the existence of Antifa in her article, describing the group only as a “collection of tactics and philosophies.” She then pivots and praises Antifa for their “quieter activities” such as “research, monitoring, and surveillance of far-right extremist groups, community organizing, and advocating for historically marginalized populations.” Orr claims this is needed to stop “white supremacist” groups from organizing. 

Writing that activists must be intolerant of violent or bigoted speech, Orr claims that direct action is necessary to prevent the far-right from organizing. Comparing Antifa to Jews who resisted Nazi occupation, Orr argues that when violence from Antifa occurs, it's committed in the name of “self-defense:” 

“...consider the possibility that some violence is a regrettable but unavoidable part of preventing much greater violence by fascists.”

The Professor Watchlist team reached out to Orr for comment prior to publication. Instead of responding, Orr posted the inquiry on her personal Twitter account and accused the author of committing libel.

Her expertise and interests include “Psychosocial Oncology,” “Adolescent and Young Adult (AYA)” and “Health Equity.”

On March 15, 2023, <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/professor-arguing-cancer-research-not-antiracist-comment-enough-christabel-cheung" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fox News featured</a> Cheung in an article titled “Professor argues cancer research not antiracist enough, offers antiracist approaches to patient engagement.” Fox reported, “Cheung’s presentation, ‘Antiracist Patient Engagement in Adolescent &amp; Young Adult Oncology Research and Advocacy,’ cited much of <a href="https://www.ibramxkendi.com/bio">Ibram X. Kendi</a>, the architect of antiracist ideology.”

Fox also said, “Cheung based her definition of antiracism through the lens of Kendi’s work, maintaining the notion that ‘there is no such thing as not being racist…the heartbeat of racism domestically in the United States has been a denial of racism, and the sound of that heartbeat has been the argument, ‘I’m not a racist.’”

<a href="https://youtu.be/AHknFfJHcMQ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">During the presentation</a>, Cheung further stated: 

“[Kendi] wants us [and] encourages us to take on the perspective that we’re either being antiracist—where we’re promoting equality—or we’re being racist in the sense of working within systems. [You’re] either being complicit or actually supporting racist approaches.” 

In November 2022, <a href="https://ascopost.com/issues/november-10-2022/how-to-advance-antiracist-approaches-to-patient-engagement-in-aya-oncology-and-research/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The ASCO Post</a> featured Cheung in a publication where she also discussed the advancement of antiracist patient engagement with AYA. 

ASCO Post said Cheung “challenges researchers to make progress in engaging [BIPOC] AYAs in clinical studies to close the gaps in knowledge about racial and ethnic minority AYA patients and reduce disparities in their cancer outcomes.”

In response to ASCO’s question “how prevalent is racism in AYA clinical care and research [and] how is it manifested in this patient population?” Cheung said:

“The impact of systemic racism in medicine does not appear to manifest differently by age and starts from the design of the clinical trial. Implicit bias and systemic racism are woven into the fabric of the society we live in. Consequently, we all have some measure of implicit bias or unconscious prejudice that we bring to our work and must make extra efforts to address.”

She further declared,

“Antiracist policies call upon AYA oncology to depersonalize reactions to racism, acknowledge mistakes, and take corrective actions in a timely manner. We can dismantle and reorganize long-established systems in the development and testing of clinical trials, so racism does not continue to persist within these systems.”

“Transgender and gender diverse youth (i.e., children and adolescents whose gender identity and/or expression differs from their sex assigned at birth) are more likely to experience poor health than their peers whose gender identity aligns with their assigned sex at birth (i.e., cisgender youth) due to stigma and marginalization.”
Fish, et al. goes on to say:
“58% of [transgender youth] also report having been prevented from using bathrooms that align with their gender identity…states and schools can implement policies that protect [transgender youth] from these harmful experiences…Ultimately, [transgender youth] show more positive outcomes in school environments that implement and enforce policies and practices that affirm youth’s gender identity and protect them from discrimination.”
Fish’s <a href="https://twitter.com/DrJessicaNFish" target="_blank" rel="noopener">social media profile</a> and newsfeed are dedicated to LGBTQ ideologies and her work with the UMD Prevention Research Center.

<a href="https://socy.umd.edu/facultyprofile/ray/rashawn" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rashawn Ray</a> is a Professor of Sociology at the University of Maryland (UMD). Ray’s faculty profile says he “leads [UMD]’s Social Justice Alliance in collaboration with Bowie State University as well as the Anti-Black Racism Initiative housed in the College of Behavioral and Social Sciences.”

In May 2020, Ray co-authored a <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/care-act-caste-act-jesse-jackson-rainbow-coalition-1502605" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Newsweek op-ed</a> titled “The CARES Act Risks Becoming a Caste Act. Here’s How We Change That” to highlight an alleged disproportionate amount of black Americans affected by the pandemic. Ray et al. wrote:
“Black people are over three times more likely to die from COVID-19 than other racial groups…While everyone in America is facing hardships, these hardships collide on the bodies of black Americans in ways that are more substantial and longer lasting.’’
Ray et al. concluded by stating:
“To date, the United States has spent over $3 trillion on COVID-19 relief. Similar to the end of the Civil War and The Great Depression, the most oppressed and vulnerable Americans—black Americans—are being cast to the side and used as guinea pigs.”
In October 2023, Ray was featured in <a href="https://pittnews.com/article/183483/news/rashawn-ray-discusses-policing-implicit-bias-at-africana-studies-event/#" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Pitt News</a> after participating in a webinar titled “Rotten Trees: Racism and Bad Apples in American Policing.” Ray was quoted saying, “‘Implicit bias is deeply embedded in organizational culture and leads to structurally imposed racial disparities.”

The Pitt goes on to emphasize Ray’s claims that “studies and statistics demonstrate how policing disproportionately affects black people” and that “approximately 70,000 of all people stopped by police in 2011 were black, 56% of these stops involved frisks and only about 2% of stops led to the discovery of contraband…” Ray further claimed, “These statistics are about ‘blackness’ not compliance.”

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AtkmREGvtiM" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In a similar webinar discussion</a>, Ray used the following graph as an example of how police officers have racially profiled black Americans for the last two decades:

In light of Ray’s beliefs and rhetoric, the U.S. Department of Justice released a <a href="https://bjs.ojp.gov/content/pub/pdf/cbpp18st.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">revised 2018 report</a> highlighting the following statistics:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“About 61.5 million residents had at least one contact with police.”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“Whites (26%) were more likely than blacks (21%), Hispanics (19%), or persons of other races (20%) to experience police contact.”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“There was no statistically significant difference in the percentage of whites (12%) and blacks (11%) who experienced police-initiated contact.”</li>

<a href="https://history.umd.edu/directory/david-freund" target="_blank" rel="noopener">David Freund</a> is an Associate Professor of History and an Affiliate Associate Professor of American Studies at the University of Maryland (UMD). 

Freund has authored several publications including “Colored Property: State Policy &amp; White Racial Politics in Suburban America”—<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Colored-Property-Politics-Suburban-Historical/dp/0226262766/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1ZCGIPIR168HC&amp;keywords=colored+property+david+freund&amp;qid=1699309383&amp;sprefix=colored+property+david+freund%2Caps%2C119&amp;sr=8-1&amp;asin=0226262766&amp;revisionId=&amp;format=4&amp;depth=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a book that examines</a> the racialization of housing developments and property rights. In the chapter titled The New Politics of Race and Property, he wrote:
“There is, nonetheless, considerable disagreement about the role that race per se played in fueling white vigilance. Many argue that while black people were clearly the targets of exclusionary practices, racism played little or no part in whites’ decision-making…
“The disagreement about postwar whites’ motivations is rooted, I argue here, in a conceptual assumption that informs most studies of racial conflict in the modern United States. Most commentaries treat white racism as something unchanging and as conceptually separate from other variables that fuel conflict between groups (including racial groups).”
In July 2023, Freund was featured in an <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/asian-america/race-change-to-another-trend-online-rcna93759" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBC News article</a> titled “Inside the online world of people who think they can change their race.” The publication discusses a Ukrainian-born American who “goes by the Japanese name Miyuki and listens to 'subliminals' that promise she will wake up and be Japanese.” 

NBC News further stated, “Freund…corroborates the idea that a ‘biological race’ does not exist [and] the modern concept of race is inseparable from the systemic racial hierarchy hundreds of years in the making. Simply put, changing races is not possible because ‘biological races’ themselves are not real.”

Freund also told NBC that “the idea of changing one’s race operates differently depending on a person’s racial background and that white people who seek to ‘transition’ to other races can often sidestep the harms of racism.”

Freund supports awarding reparations to black Americans as a form of government compensation for past offenses. He told <a href="https://www.voanews.com/a/usa_race-america_reparations-can-money-absolve-sins-past/6208006.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Voices of America</a>, “We can document systems, policies, also private practices that are constantly reproducing racial inequalities…[a]nd no one has been able to convince me otherwise.”

She also wrote a new Pledge of Allegiance in 2002, which said among other statements, “I pledge allegiance to the people of Iraq, Palestine and Afghanistan, and to their struggles to survive and resist slavery to corporate greed, brutal wars against their families, and the economic and environmental ruin wrought by global capitalism.”

Katherine Kidd, Ph.D. is the Assistant Teaching Professor and English Studies Coordinator at Syracuse University in New York. <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/syracuse-u-professor-defends-sexually-explicit-k-12-book/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">College Fix</a> reported Kidd “defended the inclusion of a sexually explicit book in the nation’s K-12 Schools, saying she doesn’t see what is so ‘scandalous’ about it.”

<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Gender-Queer-Memoir-Maia-Kobabe/dp/1549304003/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2EIACJJXLR22Q&amp;keywords=gender+queer&amp;qid=1664832335&amp;qu=eyJxc2MiOiIxLjc5IiwicXNhIjoiMS42NSIsInFzcCI6IjEuNTEifQ%3D%3D&amp;sprefix=gender+queer%2Caps%2C355&amp;sr=8-1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Gender Queer”</a> is an autobiography written by Maia Kobabe, who identifies as nonbinary. The graphic novel memoir, published in 2014, is a guide on gender identity as well as Kobabe’s personal journey of explaining her sexuality and pronouns to her family. Due to explicit images and explanations, the book has been targeted for bans by several school boards across the United States including in North Carolina and Georgia.

The <a href="https://dailyorange.com/2022/09/su-professors-emphasize-reading-banned-books-focusing-gender-sexuality/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Daily Orange</a> reported Kidd saying, “Seeing a book like ‘Gender Queer’ be challenged for pornographic material is scary, as the ultimate message of the book relies more on the ‘revelation of a personal experience of self-discovery,’ than the images it’s being censored for.’”

“Kidd does not shy away from challenging texts…[Her] appreciation for texts that are perceived as shocking has influenced the way [she] teaches literature courses. Often Kidd strives to include controversial novels and readings in order to expose her students to perspectives and ideas that differ from her own," according to the Daily Orange.

Professor Kidd is the host and producer of her own <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/television-714-delaware-st-podcast/id1436455352" target="_blank" rel="noopener">podcast, “714 Delaware St”</a> where she discusses various topics around “racist and offensive statements of Rosanne Barr.” Kidd’s LinkedIn profile says she specializes in American studies, working-class studies, queer studies, and television and pop culture.

On July 10, 2023, Gutterman published an article on CNN Opinion titled, “<a href="https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/10/opinions/social-media-ruling-biden-administration-gutterman/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Contacting Tech Companies About Disinformation isn’t Government Censorship.</a>” This piece is a response to the lawsuit accusing the Biden administration of attempting to silence conservative speakers by leaning on various social media platforms.

This <a href="https://ago.mo.gov/home/news/2023/03/06/missouri-attorney-general-andrew-bailey-asks-court-to-block-biden-from-violating-americans-1st-amendment-rights-citing-1-400-facts" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lawsuit</a>, filed by attorneys general from Missouri and Louisiana, claims that the US Government is responsible for (an unspecified amount of) censorship of posts and voices that questioned the efficacy of vaccines, mask mandates, elections, and other issues.

Regarding the lawsuit, Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry stated:
“The evidence in our case is shocking and offensive with senior federal officials deciding that they could dictate what Americans can and cannot say on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and other platforms about COVID-19, elections, criticism of the government, and more.”
The Free Speech Director Gutterman articulated his thoughts on the lawsuit, saying:
“The complaint cites occasions when the Biden administration threatened to take antitrust action against the companies over misinformation about Covid-19, vaccines, and elections or undo Section 230… This also falls short of actual censorship.”
“It’s worth noting for argument’s sake that even if the communications between government officials were acts of censorship, the Supreme Court has never held that First Amendment prohibitions on government censorship are absolute.”

Weiss’ name tops the list of signatories featured in an open letter published by <a href="https://www.dailyprincetonian.com/article/2023/11/princeton-opinion-opguest-faculty-for-justice-in-palestine-demand-free-speech-protection-divestment" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Daily Princetonian</a>. On November 29, 2023, the Princetonian posted the faculty statement, which included the following quote:
“In solidarity with the <a href="https://usacbi.org/faculty-for-justice-in-palestine/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">[US Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel]</a> call for faculty action in defense of students who are currently under attack from university administrators, other student groups, and outside actors for their Palestine solidarity work … we hereby declare the founding of the Princeton Faculty for Justice in Palestine (FJP).
“We rise in coalition with the students, scholars, and people of conscience resisting the forces currently deployed to silence, mischaracterize, and criminalize dissent on college campuses and beyond … A culture of intimidation, silencing, and punishment is now moving across the United States and around the world.”
Weiss and the FJP further declared “support for those in Palestine who have called for Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS)&#8230;” The letter ends with a call for an “end to Israeli occupation and apartheid and for a free Palestine.”

As <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/dhs-leaked-email-confirms-that-antifa-is-an-organized-group" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> by The Post-Millennial, leaked emails from the Department of Homeland Security show that law enforcement agencies identify Antifa as an organization that engages in “organized” rather than sporadic violence. Many <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/guns-knives-and-other-weapons-confiscated-from-suspects-at-portland-antifa-riot/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">members arm themselves with knives and firearms</a> to violently confront conservatives at events. In the Summer of 2021, <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/us-attorneys-office-in-dc-refuses-to-investigate-attack-on-rand-paul/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">members of Antifa attacked Senator Rand Paul</a> and his wife as they walked through Washington D.C.
When sitting down for a conversation with an undercover Project Veritas reporter, Mr. Gipe describes himself politically, “as far left as you can go.” Continuing, he depicts his fantasy involving taking up arms and overthrowing the government in a communist revolution.
Throughout the video, Mr. Gipe can be seen wearing a shirt adorned with red and black flags and the slogan, “antifaschistische aktion.” The phrase and symbol were originally used by the <a href="https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2020/01/the_fascist_roots_behind_todays_justification_of_political_violence.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Communist Party of Germany (KPD) in the 1920s and early 1930s</a>. Founded, funded, and directed by the Soviet Union—and working alongside a fledgling NAZI party— the KPD hoped to spark a communist revolution in Germany that would overthrow the Weimar Republic.
In the video, Mr. Gipe can be heard describing his involvement both in Antifa groups throughout California and in organizing protests against right-wing groups in Sacramento. He proceeds to describe how he lists left-wing events on his classroom whiteboard—including Antifa protests—and bribes his students by offering them extra credit to attend.

As for students that object to his positions, Mr. Gipe describes to the reporter how he publicly shames them in class. When a student posted an anonymous comment decrying the Antifa flag hung in the classroom, Mr. Gipe brags that he read the comment aloud to his class before implying the student must be a fascist.

Mr. Gipe&#8217;s statements are corroborated by pictures provided to Project Veritas that show the flag of Antifa hanging prominently in his classroom. Also displayed is a portrait of the Chinese dictator, Mao Zedong. Mr. Gripe can be heard praising China, Mao, and the Cultural Revolution throughout the video.

Millions were publicly shamed; an estimated 1.5 million were killed before the purges ended in 1976.
