In a lecture delivered at Harvard University in 2018, Dr. Dixon <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0dgg9dXLm0&amp;ab_channel=HarvardCarrCenterforHumanRightsPolicy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">describes slaveholders as “white-supremacist capitalists” and analogous to corporate bosses</a>.

In the same lecture, Dr. Dixon decries various conservatives who were extended the opportunity to speak at colleges around the country. He equates universities&#8217; embrace of free speech to the facilitation of the rise of fascism in America. Dr. Dixon further derides the “politics of passivity” of those who embrace the merits of debating all ideas within a university, stating the moral high ground is “for those who wish to drown in blood.”

The school is part of the <a href="https://natomasunified.org/">Natomas Unified School District</a> in Sacramento, California.
In a video clip released by Project Veritas, <a href="https://www.projectveritas.com/news/breaking-pro-antifa-high-school-teacher-in-california-admits-communist/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mr. Gipe is heard bragging about his affiliations with Antifa and his eagerness to indoctrinate students.</a>

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.
<a href="https://www.britannica.com/biography/Mao-Zedong" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mao</a>—who chaired the Chinese Communist Party from 1935 until his death in 1976—is widely considered one of the deadliest heads of state in history–<a href="https://www.heritage.org/asia/commentary/the-legacy-mao-zedong-mass-murder" target="_blank" rel="noopener">an estimated 65 million Chinese citizens perished from his regime</a>.

She wrote in an op-ed that there are good arguments for restricting free speech rights. She said that racist hate speech has been linked to higher rates of smoking and obesity, for example.

Butz is an open Holocaust denier and has authored a number of books and articles denying that millions of Jews perished in Nazi concentration camps.

In his book, The Hoax of the 20th-Century, Butz <a href="https://archive.org/details/HoaxOfTheTwentiethCentury/page/n231/mode/2up?q=23">claims</a> that there is no proof of any intent by the Nazis to exterminate Europe’s Jews.

In an op-ed for the Daily Northwestern, he <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110608193504/http://www.codoh.com/butz/di/intro.html">claimed</a> that the Jews that did perish in the camps died from typhus, and there was no concerted effort by the Nazis to exterminate Jews. In the same article, Butz claimed that the Nuremberg Trials were needed to establish the “legend” of the holocaust, due to there being no physical proof of an extermination campaign by the Germans.

In a 1996 paper, Butz openly <a href="https://codoh.com/library/document/jewish-testimonies-in-the-postwar-era/en/">attacked</a> Holocaust victims, accusing them of “malicious lying,” and greatly exaggerating atrocities suffered by their families:

In an interview with an Iranian news station, Butz stated that <a href="https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-2006-02-04-0602040129-story.html">he agreed</a> with Iranian Prime Minister Mahmoud Ahmadinejad that the Holocaust was a “myth.” He went on to state that the Holocaust was a “deliberately conceived falsehood” in order to create the state of Israel and congratulated the Prime Minister for denying its existence:

“I congratulate him on becoming the first head of state to speak out clearly on [the Holocaust] and regret only that it was not a Western head of state”

Despite his beliefs, Northwestern University <a href="https://www.northwestern.edu/newscenter/stories/2006/02/bienen.html">continues</a> to employ Butz. University President Henry S. Bienen stated that while his opinions are “reprehensible,” no action can be taken as Butz’s views are personal and expressed outside of the classroom.

Yvette Felarca is a <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvette-felarca-bb5671214" target="_blank" rel="noopener">teacher at Martin Luther King, Jr. Middle School</a> in the Berkeley Unified School District in California. She has been teaching at the middle school for over 14 years.
When she isn’t molding young minds in the classroom, Felarca can be found <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/militant-left-wing-leader-arrested-for-allegedly-inciting-violence-at-2016-sacramento-melee" target="_blank" rel="noopener">inciting Antifa riots</a> with her leftist group, BAMN. Felarca is one of the leaders of BAMN, which stands for “By Any Means Necessary.” <a href="https://www.bamn.com/about-bamn-2/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">According to their website</a>, BAMN is a democratic youth-led civil rights and immigrant rights organization that is “fighting to put the oppressed in power.”
<img loading="lazy" class="alignnone wp-image-1784" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-15-at-1.11.22-PM.png" alt="" width="245" height="349" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-15-at-1.11.22-PM.png 504w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-15-at-1.11.22-PM-211x300.png 211w" sizes="(max-width: 245px) 100vw, 245px" />
In 2016, Felarca was arrested twice on charges of inciting riots and violence in California. She was also arrested on a felony charge of assault. Felarca asked the judge to dismiss the charges on the grounds that she was the victim of a “political witch hunt,” but the<a href="https://hotair.com/john-s-2/2018/05/10/judge-refuses-dismiss-charges-antifa-leader-yvette-felarca-n257842" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> judge ruled the felony case against her could proceed</a>. She ultimately pled “No Contest” to the charges and was only required to serve 90 hours of community service.
<img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1782" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-15-at-1.01.26-PM.png" alt="" width="527" height="176" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-15-at-1.01.26-PM.png 527w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-15-at-1.01.26-PM-300x100.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 527px) 100vw, 527px" />
After the arrests, conservative outlet Judicial Watch filed a request to the Berkeley Unified School District to release any emails related to Felarca and her Antifa group, BAMN. Felarca then sued the district, claiming that releasing the emails would violate her rights to free speech and freedom of expression. The judge, however, <a href="https://hotair.com/john-s-2/2018/11/01/judge-orders-release-yvette-felarcas-emails-n264708" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ruled that releasing the documents</a> did not violate any rights. The judge also ruled that Felarca was required to pay Judicial Watch $22,000 for their legal fees for filing a frivolous lawsuit against them.
Over 150 pages of emails were released to Judicial Watch. One email even mentioned how Felarca requires her students to participate in political activities, <a href="https://www.berkeleyside.org/2018/10/30/berkeley-unified-flooded-with-angry-calls-threats-over-felarca-records-show" target="_blank" rel="noopener">including having students make anti-Trump stickers</a>, in class.
Felarca went on Tucker Carlson to discuss how violent leftist protesters were justified in their actions to shut down right-wing speech. The interview in its entirety can be viewed below:

After the felony charges were brought against Felarca, she was placed on administrative leave by the district. However, she was back teaching in the classroom only six weeks later. As of Fall 2021, Felarca is still teaching at Martin Luther King, Jr. Middle School.

<a href="https://www.emerson.edu/faculty-staff-directory/kimberly-mclarin" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Kimberly McLarin</a> is a Professor of Creative Writing and the Director of Popular Fiction Writing and Publishing at <a href="https://www.emerson.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Emerson College</a> in Boston, Massachusetts. As of January 2022, she will additionally serve as <a href="https://berkeleybeacon.com/creative-writing-professor-appointed-interim-dean-of-graduate-and-professional-studies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Interim Dean of Graduate and Professional Studies at the college</a>.
Dr. McLarin is known for her racially laden invectives directed against white people, delivered across a variety of platforms and mediums. In one article, Dr. McLarin bluntly states that white women and black women cannot be friends because of their skin color.
At the beginning of her piece, Dr. McLarin writes that <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2019/03/29/can-black-women-white-women-be-true-friends/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">she simply cannot trust white women:</a>
<img loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-1871 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-23-at-8.17.36-AM.png" alt="" width="421" height="185" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-23-at-8.17.36-AM.png 421w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-23-at-8.17.36-AM-300x132.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 421px) 100vw, 421px" />
She further reveals that her closest friends have also cut off many white people from their immediate circle. Dr. McLarin echoes their sentiments, writing that white women are just, “too much trouble” to be around.
Dr. McLarin then lists what she describes are the real reasons why she isn’t friends with white women; their power and white privilege. She accuses all white women of holding and wielding racial privilege to their benefit, in particular with matters involving police officers. She describes these women as the “most ferocious” opponents of gender equality, as they “choose race over gender” on every occasion. Therefore, she contends that many white women do not wish to grapple with race and, as a result, their racial privilege.
Dr. McLarin then writes that she attributes her frustration in particular to the white women in her class. She singles out white, female students in particular for failing to comprehend systemic racism. She finishes the piece by stating that white women simply do not view black women as vulnerable, and therefore do not view black women as human.
In a separate article, Dr. McLarin goes even further; <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2006/09/03/fashion/03love.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">she states that she will not only refuse to be friends with white women, but will not date anyone that is white</a>. The piece was published in the New York Times in December of 2006, just after Dr. McLarin separated from her husband. She acknowledges the divorce was over race, admitting that her white husband’s inability to grapple with race was the deciding factor in ending their marriage.
The majority of the article explains Dr. McLarin experiences dating another colleague, who is also white. During one of their dates, Dr. McLarin found herself enraged over a conversation involving race. She writes that her hands began trembling when her date stated, “I don’t think everyone is racist.”
She would eventually break up with him, admitting that “it costs too much for me to date a white man.”
<img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-1872 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-23-at-8.19.59-AM.png" alt="" width="393" height="205" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-23-at-8.19.59-AM.png 357w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-23-at-8.19.59-AM-300x156.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 393px) 100vw, 393px" />
Dr. McLarin again directs her invective <a href="https://www.thesunmagazine.org/issues/550/on-white-violence-black-survival-and-learning-to-shoot" target="_blank" rel="noopener">towards white people in a piece about buying and using a gun in a hypothetical race war</a>. The article in question was published inThe Sun magazine as Dr. McLarin recounts her interaction with an NRA instructor as she attempts to buy a firearm for the first time.
Dr. McLarin expresses her contempt for her NRA-certified instructor and her uneasiness in handling a gun throughout the piece, writing that her past experience with guns had been “wholly negative.” Listing off a variety of examples of what she would describe as racialized violence, Dr. McLarin characterizes the reason for her wanting to get a gun is due to the fact that “white violence towards black people is always calculated.” She further writes, “but some things are clear: Power begets violence. Violence reinforces power. White Americans damn well know this much.”
Dr. McLarin then identifies her urgency in getting a gun; If a racial war were to break out, she would use the gun against the “violent white mobs” and “take them as they come.”
“If a civil war breaks out, I say, if violent white mobs begin roaming the country as they have done in the past, I will not worry about precision shooting. I intend to sit on my porch with my legally acquired handgun and as much ammunition as I have and perhaps a bottle of Scotch and take them as they come. I say as much to my husband. My husband, understandably, is shocked. He’s not sure he believes me. I’m pretty sure he should.” 
She then alludes that her actions are necessary and justified, questioning whether she can live in a violent society without becoming and acting just as violent.

Dr. Shaya Gregory Poku is the author of, “9 Tips for Anti-Racist Child Rearing.” The document is part of a racially-incendiary Facebook post that celebrates racial differences, instructs blacks not to have too many white friends, and calls for schools to teach about racial hierarchies in the world.

Her original comments were <a href="https://www.facebook.com/shaya.gregorypoku/posts/995249889614" target="_blank" rel="noopener">published as an address to white parents</a>, asking them to make the “struggle for racial justice” part of their daily lives.

Urging parents to embrace “racial differences,” Dr. Poku describes color-blindness as “absurd.”

“Acknowledge and celebrate differences in appearance, features, and cultural norms. Describe people referring to their racial backgrounds. Do not use euphemisms or code words.”  

“DO NOT teach kids that the world is fair or a meritocracy! Stop the propaganda!” She continues, “The U.S. (and the world) have long and violent histories of racial subjugation. The status quo – what is normative in U.S. society is racism, white supremacy, and anti-blackness. Kids need to be progressively introduced to the harm of this racial hierarchy.”

In addition to intervening when children make friends with “prejudiced” playmates, Dr. Poku recommends that parents do not “live your life in a white bubble.” This includes boycotting white-owned businesses in favor of those owned by minorities.

She previously served as “Chief Diversity Officer” at Wheaton College.

Dr. Dorinda Carter Andrews is a <a href="https://education.msu.edu/people/carter-andrews-dorinda/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chairperson and Professor</a> at Michigan State University in the College of Education. Her research interests include racial justice and educational equity. Dr. Andrews has published articles for many media outlets and journals and has given two <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3N23MXsow8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TED Talks</a> in relation to critical race theory and racial gaps in education.

In an <a href="https://www.hourdetroit.com/education-schools/a-critical-race-theory-expert-on-how-something-benign-became-toxic/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article for Hour Detroit</a>, Dr. Andrews accuses conservatives of “gaslighting” by being against critical race theory. Dr. Andrews alleges conservatives “cry CRT” any time an educator teaches something from America’s history that puts them in a “bad light,” even if it’s true. She goes on to insinuate that conservatives don’t want educators teaching black history at all.

Dr. Andrews has lectured all over the nation about critical race theory. In the video below from June 2021, she identifies as a critical race theorist:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Dorinda Carter Andrews - &quot;I am a critical race theorist&quot;" width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8cIOWFdt-Os?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
In a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOrgf3wTUbo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TED Talk given in 2014</a>, Dr. Andrews discussed racial inequity in the education system. She argues that the education system was founded in white supremacy,  making it nearly impossible for students of color to get ahead. She claims that students of color and poor students are already behind the curve before they even step foot into the classroom, and it’s unfair to expect the same levels of success for them compared to white students.

When Dr. Andrews isn’t teaching, lecturing, or writing publications, she often takes to Twitter to discuss CRT, racial equity, and anti-white rhetoric. Some examples are below:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">

Dr. Andrews is a critical race theorist who pushes anti-white rhetoric in the classroom. In her opinion, racism is so deeply embedded into our education system that students of color have no chance of getting ahead if critical race theory isn’t taught in the classroom. In her eyes, conservatives are only against critical race theory because they fear it paints them in a negative light.

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>

<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>.

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>.
“&#8230;.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

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 &#8220;revolution&#8221; 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&#8217;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.

<a href="https://uchv.princeton.edu/people/peter-singer">Peter Singer</a> is a Professor of Bioethics at Princeton. He believes that it is reasonable for healthcare providers to kill mentally disabled babies. He strongly questions the personhood given to any unborn child and finds little similarity to killing an unborn child and killing any other person. However, Singer believes that all rights, including the right to life, should be granted to animals. Singer simultaneously advocates for the right to life for animals and the right to abort the unborn child. Singer believes children should be able to be aborted up to 2 years old.

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>

<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>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<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.

Assistant Professor of Teacher Education <a href="https://www.csulb.edu/teacher-education/page/noah-asher-golden">Noah Golden</a>, California State University &#8211; Long Beach, argued that computer software helps perpetuate “systems of privilege and oppression” against minority children.

California State University - Long Beach

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

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

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

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

China is the greatest existential threat that the United States currently faces. Through military, governmental, and financial fronts, the authoritarian Chinese government seeks to supplant the United States as the world’s sole superpower. None of their tactics may be more perfidious than the placement of Confucius Institutes on campuses across the country. Currently, 64 Institutes operate at American universities, high schools, and even elementary schools, serving as focal points of China’s espionage against our country. China has spent hundreds of millions of dollars to indoctrinate students with state-sponsored, communist propaganda, matched by university funds that are enabled by your hard-earned tax dollars.

Through our China on Campus initiative, Turning Point USA is highlighting the infiltration of our educational institutions and halting the Chinese government in its tracks. We will locate, identify, and expose every school and professor that receives funding from the Chinese government.

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

<a href="https://med.nyu.edu/faculty/arthur-l-caplan">Arthur Caplan</a> is the Dr. William F. and Virginia Connolly Mitty Professor of Bioethics at New York University (NYU) and Director of the Division of Medical Ethics at NYU.

&nbsp;
Censorship
As <a href="http://www.campusreform.org/?ID=6690">reported</a> by Campus Reform, Caplan compares Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign to the rise of Adolf Hitler.

In the weeks following Donald Trump’s <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/donald-trump-announces-2016-presidential-campaign-make-country/story?id=31799741">announcement</a> that he would seek the 2016 Republican nomination, Caplan writes in <a href="https://www.poynter.org/reporting-editing/2015/commentary-the-danger-of-laughing-at-donald-trump/">Poynter, </a> a non-profit journalism and research center, that news organizations must hold Trump and the Republican party accountable “for the damage [Trump] does.” Caplan characterizes Trump’s views as racist and legitimizing of those American citizens who fear changing demographics.

While acknowledging that he views Trump’s chances as winning the nomination for the presidency unlikely, Kaplan draws parallels between Trump's campaign and the unexpected rise of Hitler in Germany.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1176 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-03-11T135453.240-e1615496377900-1024x345.png" alt="" width="580" height="195" />

Caplan further states in the same article that Trump is dangerous and that his speech is a classic ploy to generate fear and sow divisiveness.  Caplan urges journalists to treat more seriously the “danger” that Trump poses. Caplan accuses Trump of characterizing Mexicans as being criminals, rapists, and carrying diseases. Caplan says that these characterizations are similar to the rhetorical tactics used by the Nazi party against the Jews.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1177 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-03-11T140031.352-e1615496458532-1024x276.png" alt="" width="580" height="156" />

Despite his comparisons of Trump to Hitler, Caplan <a href="http://www.bioethics.net/2005/07/misusing-the-nazi-analogy/">argued</a> against the use of Nazi analogies to describe other people or political movements. In an article for bioethics.net, Caplan <a href="http://www.bioethics.net/2005/07/misusing-the-nazi-analogy/">states</a> that often those who draw analogies in arguments to Nazis, “do not know what they are talking about.”

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1178 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-03-11T140208.462-e1615496552778-1024x440.png" alt="" width="580" height="249" />

In the same article, Kaplan states that it is “ethically incumbent” on those who use these analogies to understand the history behind the Nazis, and not to diminish the horror of their atrocities. Kaplan describes the “cavalier” use of these analogies as “unethical.”

<a href="http://steinhardt.nyu.edu/faculty/Mark_Crispin_Miller">Dr. Mark Crispin Miller</a>, a professor at New York University warned that President Bush was spreading propaganda in order to form a theocracy in the United States. He also compared Bush to Hitler, saying “All the major war-drives in modern history... in Germany, in the Soviet Union, and in the Middle East -- have been impelled by people who believed that they were at risk, that they were being persecuted, that they faced annihilation. Hitler actually believed that 'world Jewry' threatened Germany, and that his bloody enterprise was a means of self-defense against the Jews. We know all too well that al-Qaeda's people universally regard the Jews and Christians as plotting to wipe out Islam. And the Christo-fascist types now in control of the United States believe that they're the victims of non-Christians."

<a href="https://as.nyu.edu/content/nyu-as/as/faculty/ulrich-c-baer.html">Dr. Ulrich Baer</a> is a Professor of Comparative Literature at New York University. He wrote an editorial in the New York Times supporting the suppression of free speech on college campuses. He claimed "The idea of freedom of speech does not mean a blanket permission to say anything anybody thinks. It means balancing the inherent value of a given view with the obligation to ensure that other members of a given community can participate in discourse as fully recognized members of that community."

<a href="https://gallatin.nyu.edu/people/faculty/amh20.html">Amin Husain</a> is a part-time faculty member at New York University and the Pratt Institute. According to the university’s website, Husain’s work focuses on “resistance and liberation, movement generated theory and practice.”

Husain is also confounded and directs the NYC-based activist group, “<a href="https://decolonizethisplace.org/">Decolonize This Place</a>” (DTP).  According to their website, DTP events center around “Indigenous Struggle, Black Liberation, Free Palestine, Global Wage Workers, and De-Gentrification.”

Husain and DTP are known for their extreme rhetoric and aggressive confrontations with law enforcement. Husain and DTP utilize ANTIFA style-tactics during protests. The <a href="https://decolonizethisplace.org/">homepage</a> of DTP regularly features videos of burning police vehicles.

Prior to the Museum of Natural History’s decision to remove their statue of Theodore Roosevelt, Husain joined a chorus of activists demanding that the statue be removed. DTP itself <a href="https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c5e0c57d86cc9226827c754/t/5ee7ad184833d0007a2078fd/1592241433767/How+To+Take+Down+A+Monument_Poster.jpg">posted</a> a detailed graphic with instructions on toppling statues.

In January, DTP posted the following graphic for an upcoming <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=14391">protest</a> against the NYP. The damage from the protests led by Husain resulted in 13 arrests and over $100,000 in <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/02/15/nyu-professor-founded-anarchist-group-that-attacked-subways-last-month/">damages</a> to the NYC subway system.

As a member of NYC Solidarity With Palestine, Husain is known for using his position to entwine his anti-police and anti-Israel views. Husain projected his radicalism at the June “No To Annexation” rally, hosted by the anti-Israel group <a href="https://www.wolpalestine.com/about">Within Our Lifetimes</a>. Husain can be seen telling the crowd that police "are our enemy" in a video captured by the Middle-East watchdog the <a href="https://www.memri.org/tv/no-to-annexation-anti-israel-rally-abolish-police-israel-american-government-death-to-america">Middle East Research Institute</a>.

Her <a href="https://as.nyu.edu/content/nyu-as/as/faculty/ruth-ben-ghiat.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">professional biography lists her as an expert on fascism, authoritarianism, war, propaganda, and Donald Trump.</a> She is the author of the book, “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Strongmen-Mussolini-Present-Ruth-Ben-Ghiat/dp/1324001542" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Strongman: From Mussolini to the Present</a>,” and frequently makes appearances on CNN and MSNBC.

Dr. Ben-Ghiat frequently criticizes conservatives, characterizing them as violent and an outright threat to democracy. She additionally alleges that supporters of the second-amendment birthed a culture that directly resulted in the January 6th “insurrection.”

In an article for CNN—titled, “Parental control is a smokescreen tactic for right-wing activists”—Dr. Ben-Ghiat <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2021/10/14/opinions/parental-control-smoke-screen-right-wing-activists-ben-ghiat/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">denounces parents who object to COVID-19 restrictions in schools</a>.

She is referring to <a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/orange-county-parents-protest-vaccine-mandates-at-school-board-meeting/ar-AAPZFid" target="_blank" rel="noopener">nation-wide protests occurring at county and district school boards</a>. Peaking during the Fall 2021 semester, parents with <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/education/2021/11/03/virginia-parents-democrats-crt-transgender-policies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">school-age children are vocally objecting to mandatory masking, COVID-19 vaccinations, and curriculum containing elements of critical race theory.</a> The epicenter of protests against county school boards stemmed from Loudon County, which saw Board Members <a href="https://nypost.com/2021/10/27/loudoun-county-parents-demand-resignations-over-sexual-assault/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">allegedly participate in a cover-up of a sexual assault in a local high school.</a>

Dr. Ben-Ghiat describes these parents as elements of the “authoritarian culture” that is eroding democracy. She specifically cites their opposition to mandatory masking and vaccination of children, alleging it stems from a “Q-Anon” belief.

She states that “anti-vaccine militants” and “white-christian evangelicals” are using “parental rights” as a smokescreen to abolish private education. She decries parents allegedly “censoring” books that would teach children about the “centrality of racism and slavery” to this country’s founding. She further criticizes calls for parental control in education, describing it as the installation of “authoritarian culture” in towns and local school boards.

In a separate article for the Washington Post—titled,”<a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2021/10/26/gun-violence-authoritarianism-normalization/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">America’s Gun Culture is Priming Us for Authoritarianism</a>,”—Dr. Ben-Ghiat alleges the Capitol Riots are the inevitable result of an armed citizenry.

She is referring to the incident surrounding January 6, 2021 at the Capital <a href="https://www.npr.org/2021/02/09/965472049/the-capitol-siege-the-arrested-and-their-stories" target="_blank" rel="noopener">in which a number of protestors breached the Capitol’s Doors during certification of the 2020 Presidential Election</a>, some violently so.

Dr. Ben-Ghiat alleges that general access to lethal weapons enables “mass death” and a “democratic decline” in America. She bizarrely connects the January 6th “insurrection” to civilian ownership of firearms, alleging the later enables “mass death” and desensitizes others to human life.

Dr. Ben-Ghiat further alleges that gun owners are willing to harm others in exchange for their freedoms, alleging that no loss of life seems to deter them:

She then connects gun ownership to a rise of fascism in America, alleging that dictators controlled masses through a climate of fear and mass death. She states that gun owners are using this same formula to encourage “fundamentalist and cult ideologies'':

Dr. <a href="https://americanstudies.columbian.gwu.edu/elisabeth-anker" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Elisabeth Anker</a> is an Associate Professor of American Studies and Political Science at  <a href="https://americanstudies.columbian.gwu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">George Washington University</a> in Washington DC. The author of “<a href="https://www.dukeupress.edu/ugly-freedoms" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ugly Freedoms</a>,” Dr. Anker has described freedom as a “slippery concept” that upholds patriarchy, <a href="https://read.dukeupress.edu/books/book/2974/Ugly-Freedoms" target="_blank" rel="noopener">colonialism, ecological destruction, and white supremacy</a>.
In an article for the Canadian Broadcasting Company (CBC), Dr. Anker <a href="https://www.cbc.ca/radio/checkup/what-s-your-reaction-to-the-ottawa-standoff-and-the-border-blockades-1.6349636/why-the-word-freedom-is-such-a-useful-rallying-cry-for-protesters-1.6349865" target="_blank" rel="noopener">vilifies right-wing and conservative groups who utilize “freedom” as their rallying cry to remove COVID-19 restrictions</a>. Her comments were published just as the Canadian government began cracking down on the “Freedom Convoy” by using emergency police powers.
The Freedom Convoy was organized in the winter of 2022 to protest the <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/01/29/trucker-freedom-convoy-set-to-protest-justin-trudeaus-vaccine-mandates/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Canadian government&#8217;s enforcement of a vaccination mandate for truckers</a>. Participants parked their trucks in downtown Ottawa and halted traffic for weeks in front of the Canadian Parliament. Elsewhere, <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/02/08/freedom-convoy-supporters-block-traffic-canadas-busiest-border-crossing/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">truck drivers blocked vital points of entry on the US-Canadian border</a>.
After several weeks, the city police began <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/canadian-police-seize-fuel-trucker-covid-protest-court-silences-horns-rcna15294" target="_blank" rel="noopener">seizing fuel and other supplies</a> from the convoy. The crowdfunding site, “GoFundMe,” <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/ottawa-police-admit-to-lobbying-gofundme-to-withhold-funds-from-canadian-truckers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pulled a donation page from the truckers at the request of the Ottawa Police</a>. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau authorized the use of the “Emergencies Act” which grants the Canadian government extrajudicial powers in breaking up the blockade.
The <a href="https://www.theblaze.com/news/freedom-convoy-trucker-protests-organizers-arrested" target="_blank" rel="noopener">organizers of the protest were soon arrested</a> and <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/breaking-freedom-convoy-organizer-tamara-lich-denied-bail?utm_campaign=64483" target="_blank" rel="noopener">held without bail</a>. Individuals who <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-trudeau-announces-unprecedented-action-freezing-bank-accounts-of-freedom-convoy-protesters" target="_blank" rel="noopener">participated or donated to the convoy soon found their bank accounts frozen</a>. As police moved to clear the site of the protest, footage emerged of mounted units <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/woman-trampled-freedom-protest-indigenous-elder" target="_blank" rel="noopener">trampling demonstrators, including an elderly woman in a mobility scooter</a>. Additional footage shows <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/video-rebel-news-journalist-assaulted-injured-by-police-at-freedom-convoy-protest-rebel-news-were-suing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">police injuring reporters</a> and <a href="https://townhall.com/tipsheet/juliorosas/2022/02/18/ottawa-police-threatens-media-with-arrest-amid-crackdown-on-trucker-protests-n2603491" target="_blank" rel="noopener">threatening others with arrest for covering the protest.</a>
In the days leading up to the crackdown, Dr. Anker described the protests as a “violent” form of freedom and accused the “far-right” of abusing liberties to oppose equity.
“On the far right, [individual freedom] is often translated into somebody who refuses to be bound by norms of equality, treating all people equally or norms to remedy inequality, whether that’s trying to remedy racial discrimination or gender discrimination.”
She further laments how Canadians take advantage of the concept of freedom as a “national entitlement,” just as Americans do.
“It&#8217;s been taking a lot of people by surprise to see people in Canada, who often seem so much more accepting of social interdependence, to start pushing back against it with the language of individual freedom.”
In a previous article for the New York Times—titled, “<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20220204102257/https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/04/opinion/ugly-freedom-discrimination-racism-sexism.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Exploitation of ‘Freedom’ in America</a>,”—Dr. Anker condemns Americans who cite their “ugly freedoms” to remove mask mandates and prohibit abortions.
“Each of these actions used the language of freedom to justify anti-democratic politics. These, then, are what I call “ugly freedoms”: used to block the teaching of certain ideas, diminish employees&#8217; ability to have power in the workplace, and undermine public health.
“These are not merely misunderstood freedoms, or even just a cynical use of the language of freedom to frame bigoted policies. They manifest, instead, a particular interpretation of freedom that is not expansive, but exclusionary and coercive.”
She goes on to write that the “long history of ugly freedoms” includes justifications for slavery, marital abuse, and segregation; freedoms in America, she argues, have suppressed “nonwhites, women, and workers,” and have been used to justify white supremacy.
As of publication, the Canadian Parliament has just voted <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/news/canadian-parliament-votes-to-extend-emergencies-act-for-30-days/#slide-1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">to extend the Emergencies Act</a>. The Deputy Prime Minister of Canada, Chrystia Freeland, has indicated that certain emergency powers will remain permanent.

Dr. Leana Wen is a <a href="https://publichealth.gwu.edu/departments/health-policy-and-management/leana-wen-md-msc_faaem" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Research Professor of Health Policy and Management</a> at George Washington University. In addition to teaching, Dr. Wen is an emergency department medical doctor and a CNN Medical Analyst. She is also an op-ed columnist for a few different publications, and previously she was the President of Planned Parenthood - a tenure that lasted only eight months.

Over the last year and a half, the focus of Dr. Wen’s research and interest has been on COVID-19. She <a href="https://www.cnn.com/videos/tv/2021/05/01/how-can-u-s-solve-problem-of-vaccine-hesitancy.cnn" target="_blank" rel="noopener">often speaks on the subject for CNN</a> and other news outlets such as the Washington Post and the New York Times. In a video clip recently released by CNN, Dr. Wen compared unvaccinated Americans to drunk drivers. You can watch the clip below:

&nbsp;

In <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/09/09/bidens-six-step-covid-strategy-does-not-go-far-enough-compel-vaccinations/?utm_medium=social&amp;utm_campaign=wp_opinions&amp;utm_source=twitter" target="_blank" rel="noopener">an article published by the Washington Post</a>, Dr. Wen alleges that President Biden’s six-pronged strategy for COVID vaccination doesn’t go far enough. In her opinion, he is not doing enough to compel the unvaccinated to get vaccinated, and he needs to do even more. She argues that “the administration can and must go much further.”

One of her many complaints is that President Biden has not mandated vaccinations for plane and train travel. Dr. Wen believes the government should use its power to implement this mandate in order to “make it clear that there are consequences to remaining unvaccinated.” Dr. Wen alleges that travel is a privilege, not a right.

<img class="size-full wp-image-1679 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Screen-Shot-2021-10-19-at-8.46.12-AM.png" alt="" width="470" height="176" />

Dr. Wen is a huge proponent of vaccine passports. She notes that Israel and the European Union have vaccine verification methods, and the United States should as well.

Dr. Wen also thinks that all children over 12 years old should be required to be vaccinated, and the COVID vaccine should be added to the other immunization requirements for children. Dr. Wen explains how she would convince parents to vaccinate their children <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9W7IJdig7w" target="_blank" rel="noopener">in this video</a>.

Dr. <a href="https://americanstudies.columbian.gwu.edu/elisabeth-anker" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Elisabeth Anker</a> is an Associate Professor of American Studies and Political Science at  <a href="https://americanstudies.columbian.gwu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">George Washington University</a> in Washington DC. The author of “<a href="https://www.dukeupress.edu/ugly-freedoms" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ugly Freedoms</a>,” Dr. Anker has described freedom as a “slippery concept” that upholds patriarchy, <a href="https://read.dukeupress.edu/books/book/2974/Ugly-Freedoms" target="_blank" rel="noopener">colonialism, ecological destruction, and white supremacy</a>.

In an article for the Canadian Broadcasting Company (CBC), Dr. Anker <a href="https://www.cbc.ca/radio/checkup/what-s-your-reaction-to-the-ottawa-standoff-and-the-border-blockades-1.6349636/why-the-word-freedom-is-such-a-useful-rallying-cry-for-protesters-1.6349865" target="_blank" rel="noopener">vilifies right-wing and conservative groups who utilize “freedom” as their rallying cry to remove COVID-19 restrictions</a>. Her comments were published just as the Canadian government began cracking down on the “Freedom Convoy” by using emergency police powers.

The Freedom Convoy was organized in the winter of 2022 to protest the <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/01/29/trucker-freedom-convoy-set-to-protest-justin-trudeaus-vaccine-mandates/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Canadian government's enforcement of a vaccination mandate for truckers</a>. Participants parked their trucks in downtown Ottawa and halted traffic for weeks in front of the Canadian Parliament. Elsewhere, <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/02/08/freedom-convoy-supporters-block-traffic-canadas-busiest-border-crossing/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">truck drivers blocked vital points of entry on the US-Canadian border</a>.

After several weeks, the city police began <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/canadian-police-seize-fuel-trucker-covid-protest-court-silences-horns-rcna15294" target="_blank" rel="noopener">seizing fuel and other supplies</a> from the convoy. The crowdfunding site, “GoFundMe,” <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/ottawa-police-admit-to-lobbying-gofundme-to-withhold-funds-from-canadian-truckers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pulled a donation page from the truckers at the request of the Ottawa Police</a>. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau authorized the use of the “Emergencies Act” which grants the Canadian government extrajudicial powers in breaking up the blockade.

The <a href="https://www.theblaze.com/news/freedom-convoy-trucker-protests-organizers-arrested" target="_blank" rel="noopener">organizers of the protest were soon arrested</a> and <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/breaking-freedom-convoy-organizer-tamara-lich-denied-bail?utm_campaign=64483" target="_blank" rel="noopener">held without bail</a>. Individuals who <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-trudeau-announces-unprecedented-action-freezing-bank-accounts-of-freedom-convoy-protesters" target="_blank" rel="noopener">participated or donated to the convoy soon found their bank accounts frozen</a>. As police moved to clear the site of the protest, footage emerged of mounted units <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/woman-trampled-freedom-protest-indigenous-elder" target="_blank" rel="noopener">trampling demonstrators, including an elderly woman in a mobility scooter</a>. Additional footage shows <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/video-rebel-news-journalist-assaulted-injured-by-police-at-freedom-convoy-protest-rebel-news-were-suing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">police injuring reporters</a> and <a href="https://townhall.com/tipsheet/juliorosas/2022/02/18/ottawa-police-threatens-media-with-arrest-amid-crackdown-on-trucker-protests-n2603491" target="_blank" rel="noopener">threatening others with arrest for covering the protest.</a>

In the days leading up to the crackdown, Dr. Anker described the protests as a “violent” form of freedom and accused the “far-right” of abusing liberties to oppose equity.

“On the far right, [individual freedom] is often translated into somebody who refuses to be bound by norms of equality, treating all people equally or norms to remedy inequality, whether that’s trying to remedy racial discrimination or gender discrimination.”

She further laments how Canadians take advantage of the concept of freedom as a “national entitlement,” just as Americans do.

“It's been taking a lot of people by surprise to see people in Canada, who often seem so much more accepting of social interdependence, to start pushing back against it with the language of individual freedom.”

In a previous article for the New York Times—titled, “<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20220204102257/https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/04/opinion/ugly-freedom-discrimination-racism-sexism.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Exploitation of ‘Freedom’ in America</a>,”—Dr. Anker condemns Americans who cite their “ugly freedoms” to remove mask mandates and prohibit abortions.

“Each of these actions used the language of freedom to justify anti-democratic politics. These, then, are what I call “ugly freedoms”: used to block the teaching of certain ideas, diminish employees' ability to have power in the workplace, and undermine public health.

“These are not merely misunderstood freedoms, or even just a cynical use of the language of freedom to frame bigoted policies. They manifest, instead, a particular interpretation of freedom that is not expansive, but exclusionary and coercive.”

She goes on to write that the “long history of ugly freedoms” includes justifications for slavery, marital abuse, and segregation; freedoms in America, she argues, have suppressed “nonwhites, women, and workers,” and have been used to justify white supremacy.

As of publication, the Canadian Parliament has just voted <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/news/canadian-parliament-votes-to-extend-emergencies-act-for-30-days/#slide-1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">to extend the Emergencies Act</a>. The Deputy Prime Minister of Canada, Chrystia Freeland, has indicated that certain emergency powers will remain permanent.

The comment is directed at Confederate General Robert E. Lee, who served as Washington and Lee’s President after the cessation of the Civil War. For years, protestors have <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/washington-and-lee-university-may-scrap-its-name-next-month-after-years-of-protest/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">demanded the removal of Lee from the university’s name and denounced the General for his connections to slavery.</a>

The faculty voted by a margin of 79-21% for the removal of Lee&#8217;s name. In a subsequent interview, he admits that many faculty voted out of concern that they would “end up on the wrong side” of history.
“We feel like we’re going to end up on the wrong side of this as an institution and that it will harm us&#8230;Everyone who was in that conversation feels that the best thing for our institution is to drop our affiliation with Lee.”
The board of Trustees would later vote 22-6 to keep the name while committing $225 million as part of a “strategic plan” to achieve racial equity.

Washington State University

<a href="https://ccgrs.wsu.edu/faculty-staff/john-streamas/">Dr. John Streamas</a> is an Associate Professor at Washington State University. In his class called “Introduction to Multicultural Literature,” Streamas told white students to defer to non-white students if they want to succeed in the class. Dr. Streamas  also allegedly called a student a “white shitbag” and said that WSU stands for "White Supremacist University."

Dr. Rebecca Fowler is a professor at Washington State University. In her “Introduction to Comparative Ethnic Studies” class, Fowler takes one grade point away when a student uses the phrase “illegal alien” or “illegals.” The goal is that students will “come to recognize how white privilege functions in everyday social structures and institutions.”

Dr. Selena Lester Breikss is an Associate Professor at Washington State University. In her “Women and Popular Culture” class, Breikss threatened to give students a failing grade for using verbiage she considers, “oppressive and hateful language.” The punishment includes, “but [is] not limited to removal from the class without attendance or participation points, failure of the assignment, and— in extreme cases— failure for the semester.”

<a href="http://www.washburn.edu/our-faculty/chris-hamilton">Dr. Chris Hamilton</a>, a professor at Washburn University, accuses conservatives, such as Ron Paul and Ted Cruz, of working to strip people of civil rights. He wrote in his class curriculum about “Neo-Confederacy movements which are part of Big Money ultra-right powers (Koch Industries, co-founders of the John Birch Society) which is part of the broad New White Nationalist movement.” Hamilton’s class was originally intended to cover the 1960’s and civil rights.

ACADEMIC MALFEASANCE
In 2014, Lueck <a href="https://townhall.com/watchdog/wisconsin/2015/02/19/professor-uw-whitewater-scott-walker-n7213">offered extra-credit</a> to her freshman English class if they participated in a protest against then-governor of Wisconsin, Scott Walker. The protest was in response to proposed budget cuts against the university where Lueck taught. Students were to write a paper about their experiences.

In 2018, Marc Lamont Hill was <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2018/11/29/media/marc-lamont-hill-cnn/index.html">fired</a> by CNN for his anti-Israel remarks. Speaking before the UN, Hill called for a &#8220;free Palestine from the river to the sea, &#8221; which are sentiments widely understood as a call for the elimination of the state of Israel and replacement with an Arab state from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea.
Hill was previously under fire for his relationship with the open anti-Semite and Nation of Islam leader, Louis Farrakhan. He has repeatedly <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/dec/18/marc-lamont-hill-stands-brother-farrakhan-we-shoul/">refused</a> to condemn Farrakhan, stating, 
“Minister <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/louis-farrakhan/">Farrakhan</a> is my brother.

I ain’t got the luxury of taking people who come out of traditions that have saved us and cleaned us and throw them away. We can’t do that. We shouldn’t do that.”
