In April of 2020, <a href="https://newrepublic.com/article/157505/morbid-ideology-behind-drive-reopen-america" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Lowndes published an article</a> in the New Republic bashing conservative officials and citizens alike for their “dangerous views” on COVID-19. In the article, he accuses conservatives in the U.S. House of Representatives of being “pathological” for their refusal to wear masks when voting on the coronavirus relief bill. He also claims conservatives only want the country to remain open to “keep the current wealth stratifications in place and protect the rich from economic harm.”
Many articles and research publications written during lockdowns detailed how <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/13/business/small-businesses-coronavirus.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">small businesses would simply not be able to survive</a> if they continued to be locked down. <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/covid-19s-toll-on-u-s-business-200-000-extra-closures-in-pandemics-first-year-11618580619" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Wall Street Journal</a> noted that roughly 200,000 businesses permanently closed because of the pandemic. Lockdowns also caused many people in the United States to lose their jobs &#8211; approximately 9.6 million Americans were let go in 2020 due to COVID-19.

<a href="http://sociology.uoregon.edu/profile/jfoster/">Dr. John Bellamy Foster</a> is a Professor of Psychology at the University of Oregon and editor of the Marxist magazine "Monthly Review.” He advocates a “red-green” alliance to abolish capitalism and considers the collapse of the Soviet empire a setback for human progress. Foster advocates what he calls "the socialization of nature,” explaining that "the more that nature is placed under the protection of people in general through democratic processes that determine the rules of sustainability, the better things are going to be." Government, in other words, should “own” nature.

<a href="https://www.iliff.edu/faculty/miguel-de-la-torre/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Miguel A. De La Torre</a> is a Professor of Social Ethics and Latinx Studies at the <a href="https://www.iliff.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IlIff School of Theology</a> in Denver, Colorado.
According to his personal biography, Dr. Torres was the <a href="http://drmigueldelatorre.com/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">founding President of West Dade Young Republicans but underwent an ideological conversion</a> while attending the <a href="https://www.sbts.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Southern Baptist Theological Seminary</a> in Kentucky and obtaining a Master’s of Divinity. Now, his scholarship and activism are focused on Liberation Theology within the Christian Church.
<a href="https://www.acton.org/pub/commentary/2008/04/02/marxist-roots-black-liberation-theology" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Liberation Theology is an ideological godchild of Marxism</a>, which grew out of <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/10/12/5-major-reasons-liberation-theology-is-terrible-theology/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">left-leaning churches and social movements in the 1960s.</a> Adherents emphasize the “liberation” of oppressed groups from economic or social oppression, namely that of systemic racism.
Due to the de-emphasis of individual sin, liberation theology sorts people either into “oppressor” or “oppressed” groups. Through a racial lens, this means that minority groups—black, Latino, etc.—are perpetual victims of the dominant group. Therefore, American whites—the dominant group—will preserve white supremacy to maintain their privilege over people of color.
Liberation theology is present throughout Dr. Torre’s work. In sermons and articles reviewed by the Professor Watchlist team, he explicitly attacks white Christians as racist, privileged, and willing to inflict violence in order to maintain their racial power.
Dr. Torre even goes so far as to apply liberation theology’s framework to Jesus Christ. In one sermon for the <a href="https://www.cts.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Christian Theological Seminary</a> in Indianapolis, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=It9i5H1RCuw&amp;t=28s&amp;ab_channel=CTSPresents" target="_blank" rel="noopener">several verses from the book of Matthew are used by Dr. Torre to imply that Jesus was a racial bigot. </a>
In the passage in question—Matthew 6:27-30—Dr. Torre preaches that he is “bothered” by the apparent reference of Jesus to a Canaanite woman as a dog. Dr. Torre states that as “Lantix” persons are the “dogs” of society today, he is disturbed by this “racist” and “anti-Lantix” Jesus.
<div style="width: 640px;" class="wp-video"><video class="wp-video-shortcode" id="video-0-2" width="640" height="360" preload="metadata" controls="controls"><source type="video/mp4" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Torre-Full-Clip-Are-you-asking-me-to-follow-a-racist-Jesus.mp4?_=2" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Torre-Full-Clip-Are-you-asking-me-to-follow-a-racist-Jesus.mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Torre-Full-Clip-Are-you-asking-me-to-follow-a-racist-Jesus.mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
He proceeds to call for the “liberation” of Jesus to bring the gospel to “struggling” communities of faith.
Continuing, Dr. Torre states that as a young man, Jesus was forced to adopt the racism and ethnic discrimination of the society he grew up in and concludes that Jesus was just a product of his own time.
<div style="width: 640px;" class="wp-video"><video class="wp-video-shortcode" id="video-0-3" width="640" height="360" preload="metadata" controls="controls"><source type="video/mp4" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Torre-Full-Clip-Jesus-is-a-Product-of-his-own-time-.mp4?_=3" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Torre-Full-Clip-Jesus-is-a-Product-of-his-own-time-.mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Torre-Full-Clip-Jesus-is-a-Product-of-his-own-time-.mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
Dr. Torre alleges that upon meeting this Canaanite “women of color,” Jesus discarded his racial worldview and altered his entire ministry to now benefit all mankind.
<div style="width: 640px;" class="wp-video"><video class="wp-video-shortcode" id="video-0-4" width="640" height="360" preload="metadata" controls="controls"><source type="video/mp4" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/My-Movie.mp4?_=4" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/My-Movie.mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/My-Movie.mp4</a></video></div>
He concludes that these passages are proof that Jesus Christ is a “recovering racist and anti-Latinx.”
<div style="width: 640px;" class="wp-video"><video class="wp-video-shortcode" id="video-0-5" width="640" height="360" preload="metadata" controls="controls"><source type="video/mp4" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Torre-Final-Clip-Jesus-is-a-recovering-racist.mp4?_=5" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Torre-Final-Clip-Jesus-is-a-recovering-racist.mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Torre-Final-Clip-Jesus-is-a-recovering-racist.mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
By the end of the sermon, Dr. Torre excoriates Christian Churches for refusing to relinquish their own ethnic disparities and racial privilege. The full sermon may be viewed below. 
<iframe loading="lazy" title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/It9i5H1RCuw" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
&nbsp;
Many of his preceding and subsequent pieces direct further ire at the Church and white Christians in particular. In one article for Baptist News, Dr. Torre precludes the possibility of any friendship with <a href="https://baptistnews.com/article/the-great-white-backlash/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">any conservative whites, stating bluntly, “I am terrified of whites.</a>”  He previously described <a href="https://baptistnews.com/article/on-the-right-side-of-history/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fundamentalist Christians as an “abomination” to the gospels of Jesus Christ</a> on the same website.
Dr. Torre’s book, “<a href="https://www.eerdmans.com/Products/7847/decolonizing-christianity.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Decolonizing Christianity</a>,” describes “white Christianity” as a “satanic heresy” and desecration of the gospels. He calls for the “unequivocal rejection of the false, idolatrous Christianity of whiteness.”
A further article <a href="https://baptistnews.com/article/the-fallacy-of-whiteness/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">describes white people as “barbarians” who are willing to “shed blood of darker bodies.”</a> True salvation, he argues, can only occur through the “crucifixion of whiteness”:
“White America has historically shed the blood of darker bodies so it might have life and life more abundantly. But it was not washed clean by that blood! Salvation, for its own souls and for the nation, can only occur through the crucifixion of whiteness, nailing to the cross privilege arising from hue,” 
This echos language in a lecture delivered to <a href="https://www.carlow.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Carlow University</a> titled, “Rejecting White Christianity,” in which <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/catholic-university-speaker-crucify-whiteness-embrace-hopelessness-ethically-lie/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Torre called for the audience to “crucify” the whiteness of their “white brothers and sisters.</a>”
According to his curriculum vitae, <a href="http://drmigueldelatorre.com/curriculum-vitaee/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Torres teaches a variety of subjects on liberation theology, immigration, and postmodernism</a> including, “Liberating Sex,” “Fanon, Foucault, and Friends,” “Immersion Course on the US Borders,” and “Womanist Ethics.”  The Iliff School of School of Theology is accredited as an <a href="https://www.iliff.edu/about/accreditation/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">official seminary of the United Methodist Church</a>, which reports a membership of over <a href="http://www.gcah.org/history/united-methodist-membership-statistics" target="_blank" rel="noopener">7 million attendees</a> in the United States alone.
The Professor Watchlist Team reached out to Dr. Torre for comment but has not received a reply by the time of publication.

He concludes that these passages are proof that Jesus Christ is a “recovering racist and anti-Latinx.”

By the end of the sermon, Dr. Torre excoriates Christian Churches for refusing to relinquish their own ethnic disparities and racial privilege. The full sermon may be viewed below.

Many of his preceding and subsequent pieces direct further ire at the Church and white Christians in particular. In one article for Baptist News, Dr. Torre precludes the possibility of any friendship with <a href="https://baptistnews.com/article/the-great-white-backlash/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">any conservative whites, stating bluntly, “I am terrified of whites.</a>”  He previously described <a href="https://baptistnews.com/article/on-the-right-side-of-history/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fundamentalist Christians as an “abomination” to the gospels of Jesus Christ</a> on the same website.

Dr. Torre’s book, “<a href="https://www.eerdmans.com/Products/7847/decolonizing-christianity.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Decolonizing Christianity</a>,” describes “white Christianity” as a “satanic heresy” and desecration of the gospels. He calls for the “unequivocal rejection of the false, idolatrous Christianity of whiteness.”

A further article <a href="https://baptistnews.com/article/the-fallacy-of-whiteness/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">describes white people as “barbarians” who are willing to “shed blood of darker bodies.”</a> True salvation, he argues, can only occur through the “crucifixion of whiteness”:

“White America has historically shed the blood of darker bodies so it might have life and life more abundantly. But it was not washed clean by that blood! Salvation, for its own souls and for the nation, can only occur through the crucifixion of whiteness, nailing to the cross privilege arising from hue,” 

This echos language in a lecture delivered to <a href="https://www.carlow.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Carlow University</a> titled, “Rejecting White Christianity,” in which <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/catholic-university-speaker-crucify-whiteness-embrace-hopelessness-ethically-lie/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Torre called for the audience to “crucify” the whiteness of their “white brothers and sisters.</a>”

According to his curriculum vitae, <a href="http://drmigueldelatorre.com/curriculum-vitaee/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Torres teaches a variety of subjects on liberation theology, immigration, and postmodernism</a> including, “Liberating Sex,” “Fanon, Foucault, and Friends,” “Immersion Course on the US Borders,” and “Womanist Ethics.”  The Iliff School of School of Theology is accredited as an <a href="https://www.iliff.edu/about/accreditation/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">official seminary of the United Methodist Church</a>, which reports a membership of over <a href="http://www.gcah.org/history/united-methodist-membership-statistics" target="_blank" rel="noopener">7 million attendees</a> in the United States alone.

The Professor Watchlist Team reached out to Dr. Torre for comment but has not received a reply by the time of publication.

Nikole Hannah-Jones is the inaugural Knight Chair of Race and Reporting at Howard University in Washington D.C.
Hannah-Jones is best known as one of the primary authors of The 1619 Project. <a href="https://archive.org/details/1619project/full_issue_of_the_1619_project">Published in July of 2019 by The New York Times Magazine</a>, The 1619 Project is a series of reports and essays that purport to document the origins of and lingering effects of racism in America. The stated intent for the project is to establish 1619–the first year that slaves were brought to the British Colonies in America–as the true founding of the United States, rather than 1776. The project’s central thesis alleges that slavery and racism are the basis out of which the United States was created.<a href="https://pulitzercenter.org/blog/nikole-hannah-jones-wins-pulitzer-prize-1619-project"> Hannah-Jones was awarded The Pulitzer Prize</a> for her work on the project. Since its publication, The 1619 Project and its authors have faced a myriad of problems, including accusations of controversial hiring tactics, false claims, and shoddy research.
Hannah-Jones elicited controversy for the publication and retraction of false information in her articles and unearthed racially incendiary remarks.
<ul>
<li>Shortly after the publication of the report, Hannah-Jones admitted that <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/08/18/reader-center/1619-project-slavery-jamestown.html">hiring almost exclusively black staff was a “non-negotiable”</a> aspect when beginning to work on the 1619 issue of The New York Times Magazine.</li>
<li>One of Hannah-Jones’ central claims—“that one of the primary reasons the colonists decided to declare their independence from Britain was because they wanted to protect the institution of slavery”—<a href="https://nypost.com/2020/03/14/new-york-times-corrects-the-1619-project-but-its-still-a-giant-lie/">was retracted by the paper in early 2020</a>.</li>
<li>In January 2020, <a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/01/inclusive-case-1776-not-1619/604435/">numerous historians, scholars, and commentators—both conservatives and socialists</a>— as cited by The Atlantic, criticized The New York Times and The 1619 Project for publishing false information about American history and slavery.</li>
<li>In October 2020, <a href="https://www.nas.org/blogs/article/pulitzer-board-must-revoke-nikole-hannah-jones-prize">accomplished professors and intellectuals penned an open letter</a> calling on “the Pulitzer Prize Board to rescind the 2020 Prize for Commentary awarded to Nikole Hannah-Jones for her lead essay in The 1619 Project” because “&#8230; the article itself was false when written, making a large claim that protecting the institution of slavery was a primary motive for the American Revolution, a claim for which there is simply no evidence.”</li>
</ul>
Bret Stephens, a columnist for The New York Times and colleague of Hannah-Jones,<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20201105003122/https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/09/opinion/nyt-1619-project-criticisms.html"> rebuffed the 1619 Project,</a> writing in October 2020 that “Journalists are, most often, in the business of writing the first rough draft of history, not trying to have the last word on it. We are best when we try to tell truths with a lowercase t, following evidence in directions unseen, not the capital-T truth of a pre-established narrative in which inconvenient facts get discarded.”
By late 2020, both Hannah-Jones’ claims and The 1619 Project as a whole began receiving scrutiny–<a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/01/inclusive-case-1776-not-1619/604435/">from both the Left and Right</a>–on a near-daily occurrence. Hannah-Jones then falsely <a href="https://reason.com/2020/09/23/1619-project-nikole-hannah-jones-1776-founding-race-new-york-times/">stated that The 1619 Project never claimed that 1619 was America’s true founding</a>, despite the fact that the allegation was printed on the front pages of the issue and was repeated numerous times in televised and print interviews.

&nbsp;
Hannah-Jones attracted further scrutiny over a racially explicit op-ed that she had written as a student at Notre Dame University in 1996. <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/06/25/in-racist-screed-nyts-1619-project-founder-calls-white-race-barbaric-devils-bloodsuckers-no-different-than-hitler/">As reported by The Federalist</a>, Mrs. Hannah-Jones described white people as “bloodsuckers” and accused the white race of being the “biggest murderer, rapist, pillager, and thief, of the modern world.” She alleges in the same article that Africans arrived in the Americas “long before Columbus or any Europeans,” and that Christopher Columbus was “no different than Hitler.”

Hannah-Jones was originally <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article?id=17529">offered the position of Knight Chair in Race and Investigative Journalism and Professor of the Practice</a> at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Activists and later Hannah-Jones accused the university of racism for withholding tenure. When the University finally bowed to the pressure and <a href="https://nypost.com/2021/07/06/nikole-hannah-jones-denies-tenure-at-unc-accepts-howard-role/">offered to meet her demands, Jones refused and accepted a similar position at Howard University.</a>

Joy Reid–host of The Reid Out on MSNBC– is a Hearst Visiting Professor at Howard University in Washington DC. Reid is known to launch into partisan diatribes during broadcasts and regularly uses her platform to berate conservatives.

During the riots in the summer of 2020 following the death of George Floyd, Reid has claimed there is “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzPloMpG2EM&amp;ab_channel=MSNBC">zero evidence</a>” that any of the destruction was connected to the movement. She has claimed that when there was any violence, it was inflicted by “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzPloMpG2EM&amp;ab_channel=MSNBC">white supremacists</a>” and Trump supporters.

It is reported that there was 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/">significant presence</a> by BLM activists at over 95% of the riots during the summer of 2020, resulting in at least 47 deaths and over <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.">2 billion</a> in damages.

Reid has <a href="https://news.yahoo.com/msnbc-joy-reid-labels-justice-150310965.html">referred to Justice Clarence Thomas as “Uncle Clarence,”</a> a reference to the racial epithet “Uncle Tom” when discussing his court rulings.

Following the <a href="https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/james-hodgkinson-shooting-republicans-baseball-game">2017 congressional baseball shooting</a>, Reid and her guest <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGQEdDySUVI&amp;ab_channel=MSNBC">mocked the victims for holding insufficiently liberal positions</a>. She accused Louisiana Congressman Steve Scalise of racism while he was fighting for his life after the attack.

In 2018, blog posts were unearthed from Reid’s old website that contained inflammatory language, bigoted statements, and<a href="https://nypost.com/2018/05/31/joy-reid-reportedly-once-touted-notorious-9-11-conspiracy-film/"> links to conspiracies that accused the United States government of plotting the 9/11 terror attacks</a>. <a href="https://nypost.com/2018/04/24/msnbc-stars-lame-excuse-after-homophobic-remarks-surface/?_ga=2.40761378.1834013034.1527547273-216432594.1517259352">Reid alleged that many members of Congress were secretly gay</a>, and <a href="https://www.timesofisrael.com/msnbc-host-joy-reid-criticized-jews-ariel-sharon-in-old-blog-posts/">openly mocked Jews</a>.

Once the blog was unearthed and began receiving media attention, Reid initially acknowledged that she had written the posts and apologized for her “bigoted remarks.” However, once additional posts surfaced, Reid reversed her position and claimed that she had never written the blog posts to begin with. Reid claimed on national television that <a href="https://www.msnbc.com/am-joy/watch/watch-msnbc-s-joy-reid-address-offensive-blog-posts-1221485635964">she “genuinely does not believe that“ she wrote the posts</a> and alleged that her blog was hacked. After her statement, cyber-security experts confirmed that there <a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2018/04/the-evidence-is-not-with-joy-reid/558935/">was little evidence of Reid’s blog ever being breached</a>.

Reid<a href="https://newsroom.howard.edu/newsroom/article/13601/award-winning-msnbc-news-anchor-joy-reid-joins-howard-university-2021-hearst"> currently teaches a journalism class titled “Covering Race, Gender, and Politics in the Digital Age”</a>. Reid plans to teach journalism students how to navigate “partisanship and political division.”
“Particularly in this era of virtual media, and deep partisanship and political division, it’s never been more important that journalists incorporate a thorough and honest historical context in our coverage. I can’t wait to interact with the brilliant students at Howard and share ideas with them on how we as an industry can be better and do better.”

The email was an advertisement for “Conservative Coming Out Week!” Lewin, in a fit of rage, replied, “F@#$ YOU, REPUBLICANS.” Not only was she outraged that Republicans were active on campus, but she also did not approve of their event names nor the use of the phrase “coming out.”

<a href="https://education.uiowa.edu/person/jodi-linley">Professor Jodi Linley,</a> University of Iowa, detailed her extensive commitment to teaching classes that “deconstruct whiteness” in an academic journal article, arguing that to do otherwise would make her “complicit” in perpetuating white supremacy and white privilege.

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://gufaculty360.georgetown.edu/s/contact/00336000014Re4cAAC/christine-fair">Carol Christine Fair</a> is an Associate Professor in the Security Studies Program at Georgetown University. 

Fair was the subject of a <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7dAQe1s5ZVka3hXLURodG1WQkU/view">complaint</a> filed by a colleague for “harassment, abuse, hate, and cyberbullying.”  After <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4069936/Georgetown-prof-C-Christine-Fair-went-meltdown-Muslim-ex-colleague-Asra-Q-Nomani-admitted-voting-Donald-Trump.html">Asra Nomani</a>, who is Muslim, said she voted for Trump because of her problems with Obamacare, Fair went on a month-long rant against Nomani, including calling her various insulting names in her native Urdu, claiming Nomani had “pimped” herself out, as well as saying "F*** you".

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">launched</a> into a racially tinged tirade on her <a href="https://twitter.com/CChristineFair?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor">Twitter</a> account, accusing Republicans of enabling a rapist and calling for their castration in a series of tweets, 
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;">“Look at thus(sic) chorus of entitled white men justifying a serial rapist’s arrogant entitlement.</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;">”all of them deserve miserable deaths while feminists laugh as they take their last gasps."</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;">“Bonus: we castrate their corpse and feed them to swine? Yes.”</li>
</ul>

<a href="https://www.law.georgetown.edu/faculty/peller-gary.cfm">Gary Pellar </a>is a Professor of Law at Georgetown University. After the death of Antonin Scalia, Pellar 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.

As the full details of the confrontation increasingly exonerated the Convington Kids from any wrongdoing, and further indicted the Black Hebrew Israelites, Craig A Ford, Jr., only proceeds to double down on his claim that the encounter was emblematic of white supremacy.

Ford is a vocal opponent of the 1776 Commission.

Ford states that the patriotism of the commission is “idolatrous” and dangerous to Christians. Ford also considers the founding principles of the United States fail to alleviate or rectify the suffering caused by racism.
In his <a href="https://canopyforum.org/2020/01/21/a-natural-law-for-queer-and-racial-justice-by-craig-ford/">article</a>, A Natural Law for Queer and Racial Justice, published in Canopy Forum, Ford, Jr.  argues that the norms upheld by many Christians in the Natural Law Theory, such as clear and distinct genders, “dra[w] heteronormative conclusions in questions of sexual ethics and for supporting colonialism and oppressive racial and gender hierarchies.” Ford also claims that scientists have effectively “challenged” the notion that gender is binary.

In a separate article entitled, LGBT Catholics Are a Reality, published in Commonweal Magazine, Ford, Jr. <a href="https://www.commonwealmagazine.org/lgbt-catholics-are-reality">decried</a> the Trump administration&#8217;s redefinition of Title IX that recognized that there are only two genders. Ford, Jr. says that upholding the Title IX policy “would impact nearly 1.4 million Americans who do not identify with the gender indicated on their birth certificates, prompting transgender and gender-queer persons (and those who stand with them) to characterize the proposal as transphobic and anti-LGBTQ+.” Ford, Jr. concludes that longstanding views of gender do not align “with the world in which we actually live.”

Members of the commission were appointed by Donald Trump in order to <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210120010103/https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/1776-commission-takes-historic-scholarly-step-restore-understanding-greatness-american-founding/">promote</a> American history and values in schools. Critiquing what he refers to as the “enlightened patriotism,”  Ford refers to this as the “<a href="https://www.ncronline.org/news/opinion/we-must-reject-white-racist-god-1776-report">white racist god</a>” of the 1776 Commission.

Ford states that the patriotism of the commission is “idolatrous” and dangerous to Christians. Ford also considers the founding principles of the United States fail to alleviate or rectify the suffering caused by racism.

In his <a href="https://canopyforum.org/2020/01/21/a-natural-law-for-queer-and-racial-justice-by-craig-ford/">article</a>, A Natural Law for Queer and Racial Justice, published in Canopy Forum, Ford, Jr.  argues that the norms upheld by many Christians in the Natural Law Theory, such as clear and distinct genders, “dra[w] heteronormative conclusions in questions of sexual ethics and for supporting colonialism and oppressive racial and gender hierarchies.” Ford also claims that scientists have effectively “challenged” the notion that gender is binary.

In a separate article entitled, LGBT Catholics Are a Reality, published in Commonweal Magazine, Ford, Jr. <a href="https://www.commonwealmagazine.org/lgbt-catholics-are-reality">decried</a> the Trump administration's redefinition of Title IX that recognized that there are only two genders. Ford, Jr. says that upholding the Title IX policy “would impact nearly 1.4 million Americans who do not identify with the gender indicated on their birth certificates, prompting transgender and gender-queer persons (and those who stand with them) to characterize the proposal as transphobic and anti-LGBTQ+.” Ford, Jr. concludes that longstanding views of gender do not align “with the world in which we actually live.”

Mrs. Crystal Duncan Lane is an instructor in the <a href="https://liberalarts.vt.edu/departments-and-schools/department-of-human-development-and-family-science.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Department of Human Development and Family Science</a> at <a href="https://vt.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Virginia Tech University</a>.
In the syllabus of her Development 1134 class—<a href="https://campusreform.org/article?id=18143" target="_blank" rel="noopener">obtained by Campus Reform</a>—Mrs. Duncan Lane apologizes to her students of color for her “whiteness” and invites her white students to confront their “innate racism.”
In a section of the syllabus titled, “Who I Am,” Mrs. Duncan Lane describes herself as a, “Caucasian, cisgender female,” who is “married to a cisgender male.” She further laments the “injustice” of arbitrarily receiving various “privileges” throughout her life.
“I am a Caucasian cisgender female and first-generation college student from Appalachia who is of Scottish, British, and Norwegian descent. I am married to a cisgender male, and we are middle class. While I did not “ask” for the many privileges in my life: I have benefited from them, and will continue to benefit from them, whether I like it or not. This is injustice.” 
Mrs. Lane then vows to work on a “daily basis” to confront her own racism in order to be fully antiracist,

Matthew Gabriele is a <a href="https://liberalarts.vt.edu/departments-and-schools/department-of-religion-and-culture/faculty/matthew-gabriele.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Professor of Medieval Studies </a>and Chair of the Department of Religion and Culture at Virginia Tech. He teaches undergraduate and graduate courses, including Apocalyptic Theories, Religion and Violence, and Game of Thrones: The Medieval and the Modern. He has also penned many publications for outlets such as CNN, the Washington Post, TIME, and Teen Vogue. He often writes about history and how conservatives alter historical events to make themselves sound better.

<a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2021/05/03/historical-analogies-covid-fascism-mccarthyism/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In an article for the Washington Post</a>, Dr. Gabriele accuses conservatives of making “bad analogies” in order to combat anyone asking them to “reflect on their words or actions.” As an example, he alleges that the political-right compares mask mandates and Covid-19 vaccination cards to the yellow stars the Nazis forced the Jewish to wear during the Holocaust in order to pretend to be a “new persecuted minority.”

Dr. Gabriele does, however, support the analogy that detention facilities for illegal immigrants at the border under conservative leadership are the same as concentration camps during the holocaust.

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1786" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-16-at-12.21.03-PM.png" alt="" width="528" height="244" />

During the Holocaust, Nazis illegally forced legal citizens of a specific religion, political affiliation, or ethnicity into <a href="https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/concentration-camps-1933-39" target="_blank" rel="noopener">concentration camps,</a> where many were ultimately executed. <a href="https://www.ice.gov/detain/detention-management" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Immigration detention facilities</a> in the United States at the southern border were installed in order to keep those entering the country illegally in one place until they speak with an immigration judge to determine if they can stay in the U.S. or if they will be sent back home.

Dr. Gabriel often takes to Twitter to voice his strong disdain for conservatives and the police. He calls conservatives “bigots” and “sh*tbags” and also compares police precincts to gangs. Some examples are below:

<a href="https://www.teenvogue.com/story/crusades-trump-supporters-history?utm_source=cmpgn_news&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=vtUnirelDirectEmailCMP_DM610362" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In an article for Teen Vogue</a>, Dr. Gabriele discusses why conservatives are so obsessed with medieval history. He claims that conservatives believe they are “under siege” and try to string together irrelevant historical events and “bullsh#t history” to give “historical legitimacy to their hate.”

Dr. Gabriele perpetuates negative stereotypes and slanderous imagery of conservatives both in his professional publications and on his personal social media. He is a professor who teaches courses on Christianity and religious love but spreads political hate online.

During the fall semester of 2021, the university <a href="https://www.coursicle.com/unc/courses/HIST/277/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">offered a class titled, “The Conflict over Israel/Palestine” that was to be taught by Broderick.</a> The Algemeiner soon highlighted tweets from Broderick’s personal account—now deleted—<a href="https://www.algemeiner.com/2021/09/06/on-the-unc-college-campus-antisemitism-marches-on/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">one of which derided the idea there could be “2 sides” in a conflict</a>.

The previous spring, Broderick called for all students and faculty to boycott Israel as part of the BDS campaign.

BDS—short for Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions—supporters embrace the following three tenets as a feature of the campaign:
<ul>

After purging many of her original tweets, Broderick announced a return to Twitter at the end of 2021. Blaming her absence on “hasbara targeting”—used as a euphemism that accuses Jews of spreading propaganda on behalf of Israel—Broderick remained unrepentant and vowed to continue agitating on behalf of Palestine.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
After a semester of sustained hasbara targeting, I am back! The experience has only enhanced my commitment to agitate for the liberation of all Indigenous and colonized peoples. I owe everything to my comrades and partners who stood with me.

Blaming her absence on “hasbara targeting”—used as a euphemism that accuses Jews of spreading propaganda on behalf of Israel—Broderick remained unrepentant and vowed to continue agitating on behalf of Palestine.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
After a semester of sustained hasbara targeting, I am back! The experience has only enhanced my commitment to agitate for the liberation of all Indigenous and colonized peoples. I owe everything to my comrades and partners who stood with me.
Then, now, forever: Free Palestine.

John O. Brennan is a <a href="https://intelligencestudies.utexas.edu/about/leadership" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Distinguished Scholar</a> and <a href="https://www.strausscenter.org/person/john-o-brennan/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Senior Advisor to the Intelligence Studies Project</a> at the <a href="https://www.utexas.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of Texas-Austin</a>. Brennan also serves as a <a href="https://www.centeronnationalsecurity.org/fellows#john-o-brennan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Distinguished Fellow for Global Security</a> for the Center on National Security at <a href="https://www.fordham.edu/site/index.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fordham University</a>.
Prior to both roles, Brennan served as the <a href="https://www.britannica.com/biography/John-Brennan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Director of The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) </a>from 2013 to 2017. His service and post-CIA career have been marred with controversies, including allegations of spying on political opponents, overseas clandestine operations, and incendiary comments towards conservatives and libertarians.
In 2014, the CIA was <a href="https://www.npr.org/sections/itsallpolitics/2014/03/11/289085076/feinsteins-cia-outrage-splits-senate" target="_blank" rel="noopener">accused by California Senator Dianne Feinstein of illegally accessing the computers of Senate staffers</a> investigating the use of “enhanced interrogation” against detainees. <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2014/03/brennan-denies-claims-cia-hacked-senate-computers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brennan initially denied the allegations</a>, stating that, “Nothing could be further from the truth.” Brennan was later forced to apologize when an Inspector General report found that <a href="https://thehill.com/policy/technology/213933-cia-admits-to-wrongly-hacking-into-senate-computers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Senate computers were in fact “hacked” by CIA officials</a>.
Brennan has been accused of arming radical Islamists during the Syrian Civil War. As The American Conservative documents, <a href="https://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/how-america-armed-terrorists-in-syria/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The CIA—under Brennan&#8217;s direction—played a significant role in supplying deadly weapons to al-Qaeda affiliates</a> in an attempt to topple the Syrian dictator Bashar Al-Assad.
In his final years as CIA director, Brennan played a prominent role in what later became known as “Russiagate.” During the 2016 general election, intelligence agencies attempted to determine whether or not then-presidential candidate Donald Trump coordinated with the Russian Government to <a href="https://thehill.com/policy/cybersecurity/288883-wikileaks-posts-20000-dnc-emails" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hack and release sensitive emails from the Democratic National Committee</a>. Special Counsel Robert Mueller later found that there was <a href="https://www.dw.com/en/mueller-report-found-no-evidence-of-trump-russia-collusion-justice-dept/a-48046468" target="_blank" rel="noopener">no evidence of any coordination between the Trump Campaign and the Russian Government</a>.
While investigating Trump, John Brennan relied on allegations in what became known as the “Steele Dossier”— <a href="https://www.npr.org/2017/08/23/545289362/researcher-behind-unverified-trump-dossier-meets-senate-investigators" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a series of salacious allegations and potentially compromising information against Donald Trump</a> — compiled by British Intelligence agent Christopher Steele. The <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/09/steeles-dossier-source-was-a-suspected-russian-spy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">source for the dossier was later found to be a suspected Russian Spy,</a> who likely <a href="https://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/453384-fbis-spreadsheet-puts-a-stake-through-the-heart-of-steeles-dossier" target="_blank" rel="noopener">exaggerated or falsified his information</a>.
Despite <a href="https://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/442944-fbis-steele-story-falls-apart-false-intel-and-media-contacts-were-flagged" target="_blank" rel="noopener">agents flagging the information as false</a>, the Steele Dossier was later used as the basis to <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2019/12/09/ig-report-confirms-no-fisa-warrant-on-carter-page-without-steele-dossier/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">obtain warrants to surveil members of the Trump campaign</a>. Initially pushing to include the information, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2019/12/09/brennan-lied-about-not-including-steele-dossier-in-intelligence-community-assessment-on-2016-russian-election-interference/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brennan later lied under congressional oath, stating he did not include the Steele Dossier in intelligence briefings</a>.
Declassified, handwritten notes from Brennan further show that he assisted in <a href="https://news.yahoo.com/dni-releases-cia-documents-hillary-204337457.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">efforts to tie the Trump campaign to Russia</a> to benefit the Hillary Clinton campaign. This is consistent with testimony accusing <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/national-security/2020/05/12/fox-news-john-brennan-russia-hillary-clinton/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brennan of suppressing intelligence that the Russian Government wanted Hillary Clinton to win</a> the 2016 presidential election.
Brennan continued to publically attack President Trump after the 2016 election, accusing <a href="https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2018/08/19/brennan_on_sunday_i_stand_by_accusing_president_trump_of_treason.html#!" target="_blank" rel="noopener">him of “treason” against the United States on behalf of Russia</a>. Brennan <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2017/05/25/ex-cia-director-john-brennan-ive-seen-no-evidence-collusion-russia/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">admits that he has seen no evidence that Donald Trump colluded</a> with the Russian government to win the 2016 election.
Following the Capital Hill riots, John Brennan <a href="https://twitter.com/tomselliott/status/1352007118392582148?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1352007118392582148%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwearechange.org%2Feven-libertarians-john-brennan-issues-list-of-ideologies-biden-intel-community-should-go-after%2F" target="_blank" rel="noopener">has described libertarians as terrorists and white supremacists</a>.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Hubbard also <a href="https://www.dallasnews.com/opinion/editorials/2019/12/18/a-ut-professor-advocates-pedophilia-why-are-we-paying-for-it/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">states</a> that sexual relationships between teenage boys and adult men can replace the lack of intimacy that a boy might experience if the young man has an absent father.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1058 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-58-e1611867905859-1024x596.png" alt="" width="580" height="338" />

Hubbard utilizes his research on pederasty to buoy his advocacy for lowering the federal legal age for sexual consent. Hubbard also <a href="https://www.dallasnews.com/news/politics/2019/12/17/ut-students-protest-professors-house-over-his-writings-on-sexual-relations-between-men-and-boys/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">decries age-of-consent laws</a>, calling them a “sad by-product” of the Victorian era that prevented sexual liberation.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1061 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-60-e1611868812189-1024x281.png" alt="" width="580" height="159" />

Hubbard made the distinction, in a <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20200216112913if_/https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wGGrODNSdwudrF1G4uerU2DsRxcSx3DR1Nbn6JOd7ho/edit" target="_blank" rel="noopener">now-deleted google document</a>, that he was speaking on behalf of pederasty and not pedophilia. He continues in the Doc by extolling several nations for having age-of-consent laws that were lower than the United States.

Hubbard’s work has been distributed and used by <a href="https://www.dallasnews.com/news/politics/2019/12/17/ut-students-protest-professors-house-over-his-writings-on-sexual-relations-between-men-and-boys/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">groups like the North American Man/Boy Love Association</a> (NAMBLA), which advocates for the abolishment of age-of-consent laws between children and adults.

The University of Texas-Austin’s administration reaffirmed Hibbard’s right to <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/students-want-thomas-hubbard-fired-for-work-on-pederasty-but-university-of-texas-says-its-protected-speech" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“explore controversial and offensive ideas</a>.” As of December 2020, <a href="https://www.statesman.com/story/news/education/2020/07/23/ut-professor-accused-of-promoting-pedophilia-sues-student-for-libel/42515639/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hubbard is suing a student and 10 others for libel</a> after they distributed flyers labeling him a pedophile.
UPDATE 
A university spokeswoman has informed the Professor Watchlist team that Thomas Hubbard is no longer employed at the University of Texas. As stated in their response, Dr. Hubbard announced his retirement in July of 2021 and is no longer associated with the University in any capacity.

Despite their written statement, <a href="https://cola.utexas.edu/european_studies/people/faculty/thubbard">Dr. Hubbard was still listed on the university website</a> as a professor in the Center for European Studies at the time of the university's letter

In a follow-up conversation with the university spokeswomen, Dr. Hubbard's profile was removed from the European Studies page and he is no longer listed as a faculty member with the University as of December 15th, 2021.

Declassified, handwritten notes from Brennan further show that he assisted in <a href="https://news.yahoo.com/dni-releases-cia-documents-hillary-204337457.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">efforts to tie the Trump campaign to Russia</a> to benefit the Hillary Clinton campaign.

Brennan continued to publically attack President Trump after the 2016 election, accusing <a href="https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2018/08/19/brennan_on_sunday_i_stand_by_accusing_president_trump_of_treason.html#!" target="_blank" rel="noopener">him of “treason” against the United States on behalf of Russia</a>.

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

Brennan has admitted in the past that he voted for the Communist Party in past elections. According to CNN, Brennan <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2016/09/15/politics/john-brennan-cia-communist-vote/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">recounts</a> that he admitted to voting for the Communist Party Candidate, Gus Hall, in the 1976 general election. Brennan is reported <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2016/09/15/politics/john-brennan-cia-communist-vote/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">stating</a> that voting for Hall was his way of “signaling his unhappiness of the system.”

As The Spectator <a href="https://spectator.org/john-brennans-president-remembering-comrade-gus-hall/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">documents</a>, Gus Hall was a four-time presidential candidate and leader of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA).

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

A few statements from the publication are attached below:

“Rather than asserting one shared definition of critical mathematics pedagogy, we read widely and discuss a range of theory and approaches… Readings have focused on critical pedagogy, culturally relevant, responsive, and sustaining pedagogies, math for social justice, racial justice, gender equity, the involvement of families and communities in classrooms, and questions of equity in mathematics more broadly.”

<a href="https://www.law.ua.edu/directory/People/view/Richard_Delgado" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Richard Delgado</a> is a Professor and the John J. Sparkman Chair at the <a href="https://www.law.ua.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of Alabama School of Law</a>. According to his university biography, his areas of expertise are listed as civil rights, constitutional law, and critical race theory. The biography further boasts that Dr. Delgado is the “eight-most cited legal scholar in US history.”
Dr. Delgado is famously known as one of the pioneering scholars of critical race theory. Beginning in the 1980s, the theory received significant contributions from scholars such as Dereck Bell, Jean Stefanic, Kimberlé Crenshaw, and Dr. Delgado, among others.
As <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2012/03/11/what-is-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ben Shapiro writes in Breitbart News</a>, critical race theory is an intellectual branch of Marxism that views America and all of its institutions as being infected with white supremacy—to the point of some, including <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/nikolehannahjones" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nikole Hannah-Jones</a>, even <a href="https://reason.com/2020/09/23/1619-project-nikole-hannah-jones-1776-founding-race-new-york-times/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claiming</a> America’s real founding was in 1619 when the first slave stepped foot in North America, and not in 1776 when the American colonies declared independence from England.
To learn more, visit <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/crenshaw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Kimberlé Crenshaw’s profile on the Professor Watchlist</a>.
Considered one of the seminal works that contributed to the larger body of critical race theory, Dr. Delgado is the <a href="https://jordaninstituteforfamilies.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Delgado_and_Stefancic_on_Critical_Race_Theory.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">author of the paper, “Critical Race Theory, an Introduction.</a>”
In the first chapter, Dr. Delgado defines critical race theory as civil rights with a perspective that includes “economics, history, context, group-and-self-interest, feelings, and the unconscious”. He additionally states that critical race theory questions the “very foundations” of the West, including “legal reasoning, the enlightenment, and the neutral principles of constitutional law.” He further writes that it can be utilized by theorists in a number of situations, and legal scholars to incorporate an “activist dimension” into their work.
Building upon the work of previous movements—like critical legal studies and “radical feminism”—Dr. Delgado further cites aspects of the racially explicit Black Power and Chicano movements as inspirations for critical race theory. Positing that racism is “ordinary” or universally ingrained into everyday culture, Dr. Delgado writes that racism is difficult to alleviate as it advances the interests of white Americans, who therefore have no vested interest in giving up their own power.
He further states that racism has not subsided in recent decades, but has only taken different forms. Critical race theory may then be used to understand this relationship between “race, racism, and power.”

<a href="https://www.law.ua.edu/directory/People/view/Richard_Delgado" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Richard Delgado</a> is a Professor and the John J. Sparkman Chair at the <a href="https://www.law.ua.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of Alabama School of Law</a>. According to his university biography, his areas of expertise are listed as civil rights, constitutional law, and critical race theory. The biography further boasts that Dr. Delgado is the “eight-most cited legal scholar in US history.”

Dr. Delgado is famously known as one of the pioneering scholars of critical race theory. Beginning in the 1980s, the theory received significant contributions from scholars such as Dereck Bell, Jean Stefanic, Kimberlé Crenshaw, and Dr. Delgado, among others.

As <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2012/03/11/what-is-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ben Shapiro writes in Breitbart News</a>, critical race theory is an intellectual branch of Marxism that views America and all of its institutions as being infected with white supremacy—to the point of some, including <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/nikolehannahjones" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nikole Hannah-Jones</a>, even <a href="https://reason.com/2020/09/23/1619-project-nikole-hannah-jones-1776-founding-race-new-york-times/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claiming</a> America’s real founding was in 1619 when the first slave stepped foot in North America, and not in 1776 when the American colonies declared independence from England.

To learn more, visit <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/crenshaw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Kimberlé Crenshaw’s profile on the Professor Watchlist</a>.

Considered one of the seminal works that contributed to the larger body of critical race theory, Dr. Delgado is the <a href="https://jordaninstituteforfamilies.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Delgado_and_Stefancic_on_Critical_Race_Theory.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">author of the paper, “Critical Race Theory, an Introduction.</a>”

In the first chapter, Dr. Delgado defines critical race theory as civil rights with a perspective that includes “economics, history, context, group-and-self-interest, feelings, and the unconscious”. He additionally states that critical race theory questions the “very foundations” of the West, including “legal reasoning, the enlightenment, and the neutral principles of constitutional law.” He further writes that it can be utilized by theorists in a number of situations, and legal scholars to incorporate an “activist dimension” into their work.

Building upon the work of previous movements—like critical legal studies and “radical feminism”—Dr. Delgado further cites aspects of the racially explicit Black Power and Chicano movements as inspirations for critical race theory. Positing that racism is “ordinary” or universally ingrained into everyday culture, Dr. Delgado writes that racism is difficult to alleviate as it advances the interests of white Americans, who therefore have no vested interest in giving up their own power.

He further states that racism has not subsided in recent decades, but has only taken different forms. Critical race theory may then be used to understand this relationship between “race, racism, and power.”

Keeping with his theory, Dr. Delgado expressly condemns many aspects of Western Civilization—such as free speech, the Enlightenment, and judicial impartiality—as institutions that are imbued with racism. In 1994<a href="https://www.heritage.org/civil-rights/report/critical-race-theory-the-new-intolerance-and-its-grip-america" target="_blank" rel="noopener">, Dr. Delgado criticizes the First Amendment</a> for failing to prevent racial or hateful speech against minorities, concluding it must be amended or eliminated.

Dr. <a href="https://www.law.ua.edu/directory/People/view/Jean_Stefancic" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jean Stefancic</a> is a Professor and Clement Research Affiliate at the <a href="https://www.law.ua.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of Alabama School of Law</a>. Along with her husband, <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/richarddelgado" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Richard Delgado</a>—with whom she co-authors most of her academic work—Dr. Stefancic is considered to be one of the founders of the discipline known as Critical Race Theory.

Many prominent critical theorists, including professor <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/nikolehannahjones" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Nikole Hannah-Jones</a>, even claim that the <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/nikolehannahjones" target="_blank" rel="noopener">nation’s true founding year is 1619</a>—rather than 1776—when the first slave stepped foot in North America.

Dr. Stefancic further endorses campus speech codes and punishments for students and individuals that use “racist speech”:

"If one is an idealist, campus speech codes, tort remedies for racist speech, diversity seminars, and increasing the representation of black, brown, and Asian actors on television shows will be high on one’s list of priorities."

<a href="https://isearch.asu.edu/profile/597528" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Lorraine Moya Salas</a> is an Instructor in the <a href="https://socialwork.asu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">School of Social Work</a> at <a href="https://campus.asu.edu/dohttps://campus.asu.edu/downtown-phoenixwntown-phoenix" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Arizona State University &#8211; Downtown Phoenix</a>.
During a lecture in one of her courses—titled, “Foundations of Social Work”—Dr. Lorraine can be heard describing the United States as a “white supremacist system,” that was founded for the benefit of white people at the expense of Native Americans and people of color.
In the class—recorded and provided exclusively to the Professor Watchlist team by an anonymous source—Dr. Salas urges her students to confront the “implicit biases” present in themselves and American society. Claiming that stereotypes and prejudices construct implicit bias, she warns that unconscious actions can cause serious harm.
Attempting to provide an example to bolster her claim, Dr. Salas states that implicit bias causes doctors to act as if their black patients are slaves. She proceeds to cite a study that claims doctors give less pain medication to black patients as compared to white ones.
Dr. Salas alleges this is the product of the legacy of slavery; slave owners viewed blacks as subhuman and able to withstand a large amount of pain, so therefore doctors continue to believe that blacks can withstand a large amount of pain. Doctors will therefore prescribe black patients less pain medication.

&nbsp;
Dr. Salas additionally cites a study that claims teachers will call on boys more often than girls in their classrooms. She claims this as proof that teachers think boys answer questions correctly more often than girls.
<div style="width: 640px;" class="wp-video"><video class="wp-video-shortcode" id="video-0-11" width="640" height="360" preload="metadata" controls="controls"><source type="video/mp4" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Lorraine-Moya-Salas-Part-1_2.mp4?_=11" /><a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Lorraine-Moya-Salas-Part-1_2.mp4">https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Lorraine-Moya-Salas-Part-1_2.mp4</a></video></div>
&nbsp;
Throughout the lecture, Dr. Salas alleges that numerous racial, ethnic, and gender disparities in society are a result of implicit bias. She urges her students, as future social workers, to confront their own implicit biases and assigns an “implicit bias test” for them to complete before the next class.
Dr. Salas additionally claims that institutional racism produces inequality and disparities, attributing it to the legacy of slavery in the Americas. Although acknowledging that all cultures practiced slavery, she claims that no slave trade was enforced along racial lines until the Europeans did so in order to specifically oppress people of color.
Citing slavery, the genocide of Native Americans and discriminatory, Jim Crow laws, Dr. Salas claims that  America was constructed as a “white supremacist culture” for the sole benefit of white people who have maintained their “white power structures” ever since.

&nbsp;
In the accompanying slides, Dr. Salas cites Critical Race Theory to define white supremacy as a, “political or socio-economic system where white people enjoy structural advantage and rights that other racial and ethnic groups do not, both at a collective and an individual level”.

As <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2012/03/11/what-is-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ben Shapiro writes in Breitbart News</a>, Critical Race Theory is an intellectual branch of Marxism that views America and all of its institutions as being infected with white supremacy—to the point of some, including <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/nikolehannahjones" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nikole Hannah-Jones</a>, even <a href="https://reason.com/2020/09/23/1619-project-nikole-hannah-jones-1776-founding-race-new-york-times/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claiming</a> America’s real founding was in 1619 when the first slave stepped foot in North America, and not 1776 when the American colonies declared independence from England.
Dr. Salas had previously published a paper on critical theory, titled, “Critical Theory: Pathway from Dichotomous to Integrated Social Work Practice.” In it, she urges social <a href="https://socialwork.rutgers.edu/file/4791/download" target="_blank" rel="noopener">workers to embrace critical theory in order to accomplish social justice</a> “at all levels of practice.”
Dr. Salas further states that while people of color can hold prejudiced views, they cannot be racist as they have no institutional power in a system that values whiteness. She urges white students in the class to be “allies” in order to help minorities access the resources available to them by way of “white privilege.”
The full audio of the lecture is provided below.
The Professor Watchlist Team reached out to Dr. Salas prior for comment but has not received a response by the time of publication.

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

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

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

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

&nbsp;

Inoue delivered this speech while <a href="https://cccc.ncte.org/cccc/about/chairs" target="_blank" rel="noopener">serving as the Conference Chair of the Conference on College Composition and Communication</a>, which bills itself as the <a href="https://cccc.ncte.org/cccc/about/chairs" target="_blank" rel="noopener">largest professional organization for researching and teaching writing composition</a>. It is the annual conference of the National Council of Teachers of English, which <a href="https://ncte.org/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">boasts over 25,000 English and Language Arts teachers as members all over the country</a>.

The Professor Watchlist Team reached out to Inoue for comment but has not received a response by the time of publication.

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

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

&nbsp;

As <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2012/03/11/what-is-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ben Shapiro writes in Breitbart News</a>, Critical Race Theory is an intellectual branch of Marxism that views America and all of its institutions as being infected with white supremacy—to the point of some, including <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/nikolehannahjones" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nikole Hannah-Jones</a>, even <a href="https://reason.com/2020/09/23/1619-project-nikole-hannah-jones-1776-founding-race-new-york-times/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claiming</a> America’s real founding was in 1619 when the first slave stepped foot in North America, and not 1776 when the American colonies declared independence from England.

Dr. Salas had previously published a paper on critical theory, titled, “Critical Theory: Pathway from Dichotomous to Integrated Social Work Practice.” In it, she urges social <a href="https://socialwork.rutgers.edu/file/4791/download" target="_blank" rel="noopener">workers to embrace critical theory in order to accomplish social justice</a> “at all levels of practice.”

Dr. Salas further states that while people of color can hold prejudiced views, they cannot be racist as they have no institutional power in a system that values whiteness. She urges white students in the class to be “allies” in order to help minorities access the resources available to them by way of “white privilege.”

The full audio of the lecture is provided below.

The Professor Watchlist Team reached out to Dr. Salas prior for comment but has not received a response by the time of publication.

<a href="https://www.wheaton.edu/academics/faculty/esau-mccaulley/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Esau McCaulley</a> is an Assistant Professor of New Testament at Wheaton College.

Dr. McCaulley recently wrote a book titled <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Reading-While-Black-American-Interpretation/dp/083085486X" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Reading While Black.”</a> The Atlantic describes the book as grappling with the question of how God “views racism and police violence, and how Christians can find hope in moments of profound grief about how Black people are treated in America.”

In October 2020, Dr. McCaulley <a href="https://www.holypost.com/post/425-reading-the-bible-while-black-with-esau-mccaulley" target="_blank" rel="noopener">appeared on a podcast called the Holy Post</a> to discuss his new book. Chapter 2 of the book is titled “New Testament and the Theology of Policing.” Dr. McCaulley discussed how Christians focus on Romans 13’s command to submit to ruling authorities. However, he says that the apostle Paul, the assumed author of the book of Romans, builds this premise on the idea that if you have done nothing evil, then you have nothing to fear. He goes on to say that black Americans who have done nothing wrong have to live in fear and that it is “intellectually dishonest” to say otherwise.

Dr. McCaulley writes an op-ed column for the New York Times. In April 2021, he wrote an op-ed titled <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210421013748/https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/20/opinion/derek-chauvin-verdict-floyd.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“How I’m Talking to My Kids About the Derek Chauvin Verdict.”</a> In the article, he discusses how “cruel America can be to Black bodies” and his relief that Derek Chauvin was found guilty.

In the same op-ed, he mentions how he has recently begun his Wheaton classes with discussions of anti-Asian racism, the events that took place at the Capitol on January 6th, and officer-involved shootings.

In a similar op-ed from May 2020—titled <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210822122943/https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/10/opinion/ahmaud-arbery-justice.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Ahmaud Arbery and the America That Doesn’t Exist”</a>—he discusses how he fears going for runs in predominantly white neighborhoods. He talks about the distrust that Black people feel towards the justice system and appeals for the country to “take responsibility for its devaluation of blackness and its complicity in violence against black bodies.” He also shares his belief that black people in America are seen as menaces instead of “fully human beings.”

In July 2021, he wrote a column titled <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20220417192346/https://www.nytimes.com/2021/07/18/opinion/racism-christianity.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Why Christians Must Fight Systemic Racism.”</a> In the article, he says that racism is still alive and well in the United States. Dr. McCaulley says that Christians should consider that they may have biases that they’re unaware of and that training in potential hidden biases could be an opportunity for growth.

In an article for the Washington Post titled <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/religion/2019/09/23/why-it-matters-if-your-bible-was-translated-by-racially-diverse-group/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Why it matters if your Bible was translated by a racially diverse group,”</a> Dr. McCaulley argues that women and people of color often have not been included in the translation process. He advocates for black churches to join with other Christians of color and sympathetic white churches to write their own translation of the Bible.

Dr. <a href="https://www.fgcu.edu/directory/tthornhill#CoursesOffered" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ted Thornhill</a> is an <a href="https://fgcu.academia.edu/TedThornhill/CurriculumVitae" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Associate Professor of Sociology</a> at <a href="https://www.fgcu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Florida Gulf Coast University</a> (FGCU). In addition to his teaching duties, Thornhill serves as the Director of the University’s Center for <a href="https://www.fgcu.edu/ccres/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Critical Race and Ethnic Studies</a>.
Beginning in the Spring 2018 Semester, Dr. Thornhill began teaching a class titled “White Racism” at FGCU. According to the course’s description, <a href="https://gulfline.fgcu.edu/pls/fgpo/szkschd.p_showdetail?termcode=201801&amp;crn=12999" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Thornhill promises to examine the “racist ideologies, laws, policies, and practices that have operated for hundreds of years to maintain white racial domination over those racialized as non-white.</a>”
Following public backlash, Thornhill penned an op-ed in The Conversation to <a href="https://theconversation.com/why-i-teach-a-course-called-white-racism-90093" target="_blank" rel="noopener">decry the allegedly “far-right” news sites and “racist” blogs attacking the course</a>. He proceeds to defend his intentions to teach the class by alleging that racism is an “intractable feature” of American society.

Posing the question as to why the course is not addressing the problem of “black racism,” Dr. Thornhill states plainly that there is no such thing. He posits that since blacks do not benefit from institutional racism of the current power structures, black people, therefore, cannot be racist.
In a separate article authored for The Grio the same month, Dr. Thornhill alleges that white people, on the other hand, are <a href="https://thegrio.com/2018/02/16/white-americans-and-their-never-ending-relationship-to-white-racist-hate-groups/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">universally racist and benefit from white supremacist groups</a>.
In fact, he states that explicit evidence is not even needed to determine if a white person is racist.

The following semester, Dr. Thornhill taught a class titled, “Racism and Law Enforcement.” The course description states the class will examine, “the ways in which race, racism, and white supremacy relate to U.S law enforcement policies and practices historically and contemporarily.” Pictured on the front page for the course syllabus is a “Blue-Lives Matter” flag prominently crossed out. The symbol is typically flown to display respect for the sacrifices police officers make serving their communities.

Dr. <a href="https://www.fgcu.edu/directory/tthornhill#CoursesOffered" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ted Thornhill</a> is an <a href="https://fgcu.academia.edu/TedThornhill/CurriculumVitae" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Associate Professor of Sociology</a> at <a href="https://www.fgcu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Florida Gulf Coast University</a> (FGCU). In addition to his teaching duties, Thornhill serves as the Director of the University’s Center for <a href="https://www.fgcu.edu/ccres/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Critical Race and Ethnic Studies</a>.

Beginning in the Spring 2018 Semester, Dr. Thornhill began teaching a class titled “White Racism” at FGCU. According to the course’s description, <a href="https://gulfline.fgcu.edu/pls/fgpo/szkschd.p_showdetail?termcode=201801&amp;crn=12999" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Thornhill promises to examine the “racist ideologies, laws, policies, and practices that have operated for hundreds of years to maintain white racial domination over those racialized as non-white.</a>”

Following public backlash, Thornhill penned an op-ed in The Conversation to <a href="https://theconversation.com/why-i-teach-a-course-called-white-racism-90093" target="_blank" rel="noopener">decry the allegedly “far-right” news sites and “racist” blogs attacking the course</a>. He proceeds to defend his intentions to teach the class by alleging that racism is an “intractable feature” of American society.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1515 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-08-26T181244.049-e1630026799996-1024x317.png" alt="" width="580" height="180" />

Posing the question as to why the course is not addressing the problem of “black racism,” Dr. Thornhill states plainly that there is no such thing. He posits that since blacks do not benefit from institutional racism of the current power structures, black people, therefore, cannot be racist.

In a separate article authored for The Grio the same month, Dr. Thornhill alleges that white people, on the other hand, are <a href="https://thegrio.com/2018/02/16/white-americans-and-their-never-ending-relationship-to-white-racist-hate-groups/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">universally racist and benefit from white supremacist groups</a>.

In fact, he states that explicit evidence is not even needed to determine if a white person is racist.

<img class="wp-image-1516 size-large aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-08-26T181526.658-e1630026954288-1024x319.png" alt="" width="580" height="181" />

The following semester, Dr. Thornhill taught a class titled, “Racism and Law Enforcement.” The course description states the class will examine, “the ways in which race, racism, and white supremacy relate to U.S law enforcement policies and practices historically and contemporarily.” Pictured on the front page for the course syllabus is a “Blue-Lives Matter” flag prominently crossed out. The symbol is typically flown to display respect for the sacrifices police officers make serving their communities.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
WHAT IS THIS?!!
“Racism and law enforcement” is now a class being taught at FGC University. We are now BRAINWASHING students to hate law enforcement.

Dr. Hasan Kwame is an adherent to critical race theory and frequently defends the field in his lectures and speeches. In addition, he advises local high schools and school districts on how to teach critical theory to students.
On his personal Twitter account, Dr. Jeffries <a href="https://twitter.com/ProfJeffries" target="_blank" rel="noopener">frequently characterizes conservatives as white nationalists, supremacists and other epithets</a>. In one tweet, he lashes out at South Carolina Senator Tim Scott—currently the sole black Republican in the United States Senate—as the “blackface” of white supremacy.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
&nbsp;
In other lectures, Dr. Jeffries portrays America as a systemically racist nation. He thus defends critical race theory as necessary to understand oppression and the history of racism in the United States.
As <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2012/03/11/what-is-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ben Shapiro writes</a> for Breitbart News, critical race theory—also referred to as “critical theory”—is an intellectual branch of Marxism that views America and all of its institutions as being infected with white supremacy—to the point of some, including <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/nikolehannahjones" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nikole Hannah-Jones</a>, even <a href="https://reason.com/2020/09/23/1619-project-nikole-hannah-jones-1776-founding-race-new-york-times/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claiming</a> America’s real founding was in 1619 when the first slave stepped foot in North America, and not 1776 when the American colonies declared independence from England.
In a speech for <a href="https://www.cityclub.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The City Club of Cleveland</a>, Dr. Jeffries <a href="https://www.cityclub.org/forums/2021/08/20/misunderstanding-critical-race-theory" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lauds critical race theory as necessary to understand that racism is “systemic, deeply embedded, and produces racial inequality in our society</a>.” At one point while addressing the accusation that critical race theory brands all white people as racist, Dr. Jeffries retorts that while all white people are not born racist, all white people born in America are, in fact, racist.
<div style="width: 640px;" class="wp-video">

&nbsp;
He further characterizes any opposition to critical race theory as a “racial reckoning” used to whip up conservative voters as “racism is the greatest organizing force” in American history. While denying that critical race theory is taught in American schools, he nonetheless advocates for students to learn it.
In addition to his teaching responsibilities, Dr. Jeffries conducts training for local school districts in Ohio. In one lesson plan for <a href="https://www.olentangy.k12.oh.us/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Olentangy Local School District </a>obtained by the Professor Watchlist team, Dr. Jeffries advises teachers on how to teach critical theory and social justice movements to their students.
In Section One—titled, “Confronting Hard History: Teaching and Talking About Race and Racism in K-12 Classrooms,”—Dr. Jeffries addresses the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement and instructs teachers to incorporate the movement’s tenets into their lesson plans.
According to a <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">study conducted by the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED)</a>, BLM can be linked to 95% of the riots around the country–notably in Summer 2020 following the death of George Floyd. In an analysis of the study, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Federalist</a> found, “of the 633 incidents coded as riots, 88 percent are recorded as involving Black Lives Matter Activists.” The resulting riots were the largest in American history, <a href="https://fee.org/articles/george-floyd-riots-caused-record-setting-2-billion-in-damage-new-report-says-here-s-why-the-true-cost-is-even-higher/#:~:text=Only%20now%20are%20we%20beginning,%241%20billion%20to%20%242%20billion." target="_blank" rel="noopener">causing an estimated $2 billion in damages and 47 deaths.</a>
Despite the destruction, Dr. Jeffries lauds the protests for seeking justice for systemic racism. He urges educators to incorporate this into their lesson plans when teaching about BLM. He further endorses explicitly discussing race and racial issues in the classroom as not doing so— or what Dr. Jeffries defines it as the “color-blind trap”— seeks to “erase” the experiences of people of color.
In part two of the training, Dr. Jeffries instructs teachers that America was founded in the year 1619 rather than 1776. He states that it is vital to understand the nation was founded on the double-helix of racism and capitalism.

Dr. Treva Lindsay frequently writes for a number of prominent publications—such as <a href="https://www.aljazeera.com/features/2015/9/5/race-in-the-us-herstory" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Al Jazeera</a>, <a href="https://www.cosmopolitan.com/author/14721/treva-lindsey/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cosmopolitan</a>, and <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2021/09/27/opinions/r-kelly-conviction-black-women-and-girls-lindsey/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CNN</a>— accusing the United States of being systematically racist and calling for the abolishment of policing. She additionally praises the BLM movement for its alleged efforts to combat systemic racism.
Black Lives Matter (BLM,) as an organization, 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 the organization. BLM’s mission is to “eradicate white supremacy and build local power to intervene in violence inflicted on black communities by the state and vigilantes.”
In an article for Complex, Dr. Lindsay praises BLM and its umbrella organization, the Movement for Black Lives, for their <a href="https://www.complex.com/life/2017/02/black-history-month-five-years-after-trayvon-martin-shooting" target="_blank" rel="noopener">role in awakening Americans to the reality of “anti-black racism</a>.” In the same article, she alleges that “millions” of black Americans have been victims of systemic racism for hundreds of years, and still are today.
In a separate article for NBC News, Dr. Lindsay decries the  passage of Juneteenth, <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/juneteenth-honors-black-emancipation-hope-equality-federal-holiday-doesn-t-ncna1271356" target="_blank" rel="noopener">describing it as trivial and merely a “symbolic gesture.</a>” A bill to make Juneteenth—a holiday <a href="https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/abolition-of-slavery-announced-in-texas-juneteenth" target="_blank" rel="noopener">celebrating the announcement that slavery had ended in Texas</a>— a national holiday was passed with the <a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/biden-signs-bill-making-juneteenth-a-federal-holiday/ar-AAL92UE" target="_blank" rel="noopener">bipartisan support of both houses</a> before it was signed into law in June of 2020.
Nonetheless, Dr. Lindsay writes that she can’t help but feel “contempt” towards white people for their support, critiquing the holiday as inadequate to combat “sanctioned white supremacy.”

When the officer arrived, Bryant was at the center of a fight with several other girls. Bryant then drew a knife and the responding officer ordered her to drop the weapon. Bryant then lunged at another girl with the knife, causing the officer to shoot and fatally wound her.
Despite <a href="https://twitter.com/shanermurph/status/1384703749046915074?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1384703749046915074%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.breitbart.com%2Flaw-and-order%2F2021%2F04%2F20%2Fgraphic-video-columbus-police-release-bodycam-video-of-shooting%2F" target="_blank" rel="noopener">evidence from the body-cam exonerating his actions</a>, Dr. Lindsay still alleges the incident is further proof of systemic racism and brutality directed specifically at black Americans.

“Police do not make us safer. Police do not make Black children safer. Not at school. Not on university campuses. Not at home. As the body camera footage shows, police escalate. The killing of Ma’Khia is yet another painful reminder of why a growing number of people are focusing their energies on building alternatives to policing and demanding that we defund the police. It’s a reminder why so many people are agitating to remove the police from our homes, communities, and schools — and eventually abolish policing altogether.”

<a href="https://www.britannica.com/biography/Rush-Limbaugh">Rush Limbaugh</a> was a popular radio personality known for his conservative views. He passed away in February 2020 at 70 years of age after battling lung cancer.
On the same <a href="https://www.whitehodgepodcasts.com/profane-faith/]">podcast</a>, in the wake of Rush Limbaugh’s death, Hodge states that Limbaugh was “evil” and for “3 decades he spewed lies and hate.” He alleges that Limbaugh is the reason for all the “racists” that existed in the White House under President Donald Trump saying that they were “created by Limbaugh.”
Rhetorically addressing listeners that might rebuke Hodge for celebrating Limbaugh’s death, Hodge again states that he is “glad that Mother***** is dead.” In keeping with his characterization of Limbaugh as a racist, Hodge then expresses his hope that Rush will meet a “black God” when he reaches heaven.

Kelli Alvarez is an <a href="https://www.ou.edu/cas/fyc/people/faculty" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Assistant Teaching Professor</a> at the University of Oklahoma. Her areas of interest include race and ethnicity in literature and film as well as indigenous and other ethnic literature. Alvarez teaches freshman-level courses, including English Composition, where she requires all students to read a publication by Professor Watchlist identified <a href="https://professorwatchlist.org/professor/ibramxkendi" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ibram X. Kendi</a> titled, “When Free Speech Becomes Unfree Speech.”
<img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1762" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-12-at-1.16.41-PM.png" alt="" width="456" height="211" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-12-at-1.16.41-PM.png 456w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-12-at-1.16.41-PM-300x139.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 456px) 100vw, 456px" />
When Alvarez isn’t teaching first-year composition courses, she is <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/07/classroom-censorship-comes-to-the-university-of-oklahoma/">leading workshops</a> for fellow teachers and professors on “anti-racist rhetoric &amp; pedagogies.” Over the summer of 2021, Alvarez led a classroom censorship workshop discussing how to “set an anti-racist tone” in the classroom and ultimately silence certain students. During the workshop, she discussed how particular students are emboldened to be overly racist in the classroom, both in-person and through their writing. She said that while some teachers may be afraid to tell students they can’t say something in class, teachers absolutely have the right to tell students to be quiet and stop talking.

&nbsp;
Alvarez goes on to claim that the Supreme Court ruled that hate speech is not protected by the U.S. Constitution. She states, “the Supreme Court has actually upheld that hate speech, derogatory speech, any of the -isms do not apply in the classroom because they do not foster a productive learning environment.”
According to <a href="https://www.freedomforuminstitute.org/about/faq/what-rights-to-freedom-of-expression-do-students-have/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Freedom Forum Institute</a>, The Supreme Court ruled in Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District (1969) that students “do not shed their constitutional rights to freedom of speech and expression at the schoolhouse gate.”
Later in the lecture, Alvarez discusses a concept called “white institutional defensiveness,” which she describes as conditions that force non-white students to conform and assimilate to whiteness or else risk consequences. Alvarez asserts that not allowing non-white students to write in ABE style (Adult Basic Education) is racist and perpetuating white supremacy.
According to the Division of Adult and Career Education, ABE style is meant for native English-speakers with limited literacy, below a 9th grade level. The video of the entire workshop can be viewed <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Byxl61VDYp8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

<a href="https://www.law.ou.edu/directory/steven-j-cleveland" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Steven J Cleveland</a> is the Alfred P. Murrah Professor of Law and Thomas P. Hester Presidential Professor at the<a href="https://law.ou.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> College of Law at the University of Oklahoma (OU</a>).
During the 2022 Spring Semester, the University of Oklahoma implemented strict mandates on students and faculty to limit the spread of COVID-19. Dr. Cleveland is currently enforcing these policies in his classroom to such an extreme extent that students are threatened with being removed from class and reported to the Dean of the school for not wearing a mask.
Upon returning for the Spring 2022 semester, students were informed by <a href="https://www.normantranscript.com/news/ou-requiring-masks-for-first-two-weeks-of-classes/article_704a7026-723a-11ec-aa7b-139ccc6f40da.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the university’s administration they will be forced to wear face masks</a> in classroom settings until February 1 when masks will then become<a href="https://www.ou.edu/together/campus-protocols/spring-2022" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> strongly recommended.</a>
This mandate is in direct contradiction with Oklahoma state law. In May of 2021, Governor Kevin Stitt <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/05/29/oklahoma-gov-kevin-stitt-bars-agencies-mask-vaccination-mandates/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">banned any state agency or building–including public universities–from requiring either a mask or vaccination status for entry</a>.
Nevertheless, professors at OU are still enforcing mask mandates and threatening to penalize students who do not comply with the restrictions. In communications reviewed by the Professor Watchlist team, professors are removing maskless students from class and threatening their grades due to the forced absences. Others refuse to even meet with students who are unvaccinated and will report unmasked students to their respective Dean.
One student, Alyssa Amundsen, vowed to defy the university mandates. She emailed each of her professors in the law school explaining that she would not wear a mask in class under any circumstance. While some professors were accommodating, many were not, and refused to allow her to attend in person.
Dr Cleveland was the most resistant to grant any exemptions. Amundsen was barred from attending class despite obtaining a medical exemption from wearing a mask last year from her doctor.
Amundsen emailed Dr. Cleveland to ask if she could attend class without a mask. Dr. Cleveland immediately refused her request and threatened to report her to the Dean of the Law School if she made a maskless appearance.
<img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-1939" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/IMG_9808-1-680x1024.png" alt="" width="450" height="678" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/IMG_9808-1-680x1024.png 680w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/IMG_9808-1-199x300.png 199w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/IMG_9808-1-768x1156.png 768w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/IMG_9808-1-1020x1536.png 1020w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/IMG_9808-1.png 1125w" sizes="(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px" />
&nbsp;
Amundsen then offered to take the class remotely via ZOOM since the course is already recorded for students who are absent due to COVID. Despite this, Dr. Cleveland again refused, stating that “taking a stand for her beliefs has consequences.”
<img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-1942" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/IMG_9810-2-707x1024.png" alt="" width="450" height="652" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/IMG_9810-2-707x1024.png 707w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/IMG_9810-2-207x300.png 207w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/IMG_9810-2-768x1112.png 768w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/IMG_9810-2-1061x1536.png 1061w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/IMG_9810-2.png 1122w" sizes="(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px" />
&nbsp;
n a follow-up conversation with two Deans of the law school—Dr. Steven Gensler and Dr. Kathleene Guzman—Amundsen was still adamant to reach a compromise. Both told her there is no recourse she and can only attend in-person classes while wearing a mask per university rules. She was eventually forced to drop the class or risk having her grade reduced due to her absences.
While an injunction has been placed on Governor Stitt’s executive order, the Judge <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory/oklahoma-school-mask-mandate-ban-blocked-exemptions-79769836" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ruled that schools must include an “opt-out.” So far, OU has provided no such opt-out</a> for students and staff.
The Professor Watchlist team has reached out to Dr. Cleveland but has not received a reply by the time of publication.
&nbsp;
UPDATE
Following publication, the Professor Watchlist team has received the following statement from Mackenzie Scheer, Director of Media Relations at the University of Oklahoma, in regards to our inquiry.
&#8220;Since the onset of the pandemic, OU has sought to implement protocols that will protect our community, while also allowing for our in-person experience to continue. Given the transmission rate of Omicron and supply chain issues around testing, OU instituted a temporary addendum to its existing masking policy, requiring masking in all classrooms through Jan. 31. Beginning Feb. 1, the university reverted to its Fall 2021 masking guidance that expects masking in the classroom and requires masking for a two-week quarantine period when a confirmed positive COVID-19 case in the class is identified. While the university does not grant exemptions, it does evaluate requests for accommodations in certain cases. Students in need of accommodations due to health or religious reasons were instructed by law school administrators to contact the <a href="mailto:OU%20Accessibility%20and%20Disability%20Resource%20Center" target="_blank" rel="noopener">OU Accessibility and Disability Resource Center</a> at <a href="mailto:adrc@ou.edu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">adrc@ou.edu</a> or (405) 325-3852. All accommodation decisions are made on a case-by-case basis after considering each individual’s circumstance and in accordance with all applicable laws. Once a request has been approved, instructors are responsible for providing a student’s reasonable accommodation.&#8220;

Hester Presidential Professor at the<a href="https://law.ou.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> College of Law at the University of Oklahoma (OU</a>).

During the 2022 Spring Semester, the University of Oklahoma implemented strict mandates on students and faculty to limit the spread of COVID-19. Dr. Cleveland is currently enforcing these policies in his classroom to such an extreme extent that students are threatened with being removed from class and reported to the Dean of the school for not wearing a mask.

Upon returning for the Spring 2022 semester, students were informed by <a href="https://www.normantranscript.com/news/ou-requiring-masks-for-first-two-weeks-of-classes/article_704a7026-723a-11ec-aa7b-139ccc6f40da.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the university’s administration they will be forced to wear face masks</a> in classroom settings until February 1 when masks will then become<a href="https://www.ou.edu/together/campus-protocols/spring-2022" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> strongly recommended.</a>

This mandate is in direct contradiction with Oklahoma state law. In May of 2021, Governor Kevin Stitt <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/05/29/oklahoma-gov-kevin-stitt-bars-agencies-mask-vaccination-mandates/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">banned any state agency or building–including public universities–from requiring either a mask or vaccination status for entry</a>.

Nevertheless, professors at OU are still enforcing mask mandates and threatening to penalize students who do not comply with the restrictions. In communications reviewed by the Professor Watchlist team, professors are removing maskless students from class and threatening their grades due to the forced absences. Others refuse to even meet with students who are unvaccinated and will report unmasked students to their respective Dean.

One student, Alyssa Amundsen, vowed to defy the university mandates. She emailed each of her professors in the law school explaining that she would not wear a mask in class under any circumstance. While some professors were accommodating, many were not, and refused to allow her to attend in person.

Dr Cleveland was the most resistant to grant any exemptions. Amundsen was barred from attending class despite obtaining a medical exemption from wearing a mask last year from her doctor.

Amundsen emailed Dr. Cleveland to ask if she could attend class without a mask. Dr. Cleveland immediately refused her request and threatened to report her to the Dean of the Law School if she made a maskless appearance.

&nbsp;

Amundsen then offered to take the class remotely via ZOOM since the course is already recorded for students who are absent due to COVID. Despite this, Dr. Cleveland again refused, stating that “taking a stand for her beliefs has consequences.”

&nbsp;

n a follow-up conversation with two Deans of the law school—Dr. Steven Gensler and Dr. Kathleene Guzman—Amundsen was still adamant to reach a compromise. Both told her there is no recourse she and can only attend in-person classes while wearing a mask per university rules. She was eventually forced to drop the class or risk having her grade reduced due to her absences.

While an injunction has been placed on Governor Stitt’s executive order, the Judge <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory/oklahoma-school-mask-mandate-ban-blocked-exemptions-79769836" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ruled that schools must include an “opt-out.” So far, OU has provided no such opt-out</a> for students and staff.

The Professor Watchlist team has reached out to Dr. Cleveland but has not received a reply by the time of publication.

UPDATE
Following publication, the Professor Watchlist team has received the following statement from Mackenzie Scheer, Director of Media Relations at the University of Oklahoma, in regards to our inquiry.

"Since the onset of the pandemic, OU has sought to implement protocols that will protect our community, while also allowing for our in-person experience to continue. Given the transmission rate of Omicron and supply chain issues around testing, OU instituted a temporary addendum to its existing masking policy, requiring masking in all classrooms through Jan. 31. Beginning Feb. 1, the university reverted to its Fall 2021 masking guidance that expects masking in the classroom and requires masking for a two-week quarantine period when a confirmed positive COVID-19 case in the class is identified. While the university does not grant exemptions, it does evaluate requests for accommodations in certain cases. Students in need of accommodations due to health or religious reasons were instructed by law school administrators to contact the <a href="mailto:OU%20Accessibility%20and%20Disability%20Resource%20Center" target="_blank" rel="noopener">OU Accessibility and Disability Resource Center</a> at <a href="mailto:adrc@ou.edu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">adrc@ou.edu</a> or (405) 325-3852. All accommodation decisions are made on a case-by-case basis after considering each individual’s circumstance and in accordance with all applicable laws. Once a request has been approved, instructors are responsible for providing a student’s reasonable accommodation."
