<a href="https://www.luc.edu/theology/facultystaff/hermansenmarcia.shtml">Dr. Marcia Hermansen</a> is a Professor of Islamic Studies at Loyola University-Chicago. Hermansen said after the election of Donald Trump that professors should give Muslim students extra time on assignments if they requested; "“If a Muslim student requests extra time to complete assignments, it may be because they feel threatened" she said at a post-election discussion. Additionally, Hermansen has a problem of intolerance towards people critical of Islam, as she once backed out of a panel with Islam critic Robert Spencer.  The event was supposed to be about different perspectives on Islam, but Hermansen apparently was offended that it would actually involve different perspectives on Islam.

<p><a href="https://polisci.unl.edu/ari-kohen" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Ari Kohen</a> is the Schlesinger Professor of Social Justice in the <a href="https://polisci.unl.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Department of Political Science</a> at the <a href="https://www.unl.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of Nebraska at Lincoln</a>. According to his University biography, his current research interests include social justice education, technology and racism, and “extremist challenges to liberalism.”</p>
<p>In May of 2019, Dr. Kohen accused members of various TPUSA chapters in the state of Nebraska of being white supremacists. In a post on his personal <i>Twitter</i> account, Dr. Kohen asks why the students and former TPUSA staff pictured are flashing “the same white power symbol” as the Christchurch shooter.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>Dr. Kohen is referencing a mass shooting that occurred in Christchurch, New Zealand just a few weeks prior to his tweet. During the March 2019 rampage, <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-53861456" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a terrorist killed 51 and injured 41 Muslim members of two separate mosques across the city</a>.</p>
<p>In the left-most photo of the tweet, members of TPUSA chapters can be seen posing for a photo at an event while making an “ok” sign with their hands. Dr. Kohen juxtaposes the photo with a photo of the gunman making a similar gesture.</p>
<p>Many regard the “ok” sign as a euphemism for signaling the phrase “white power.” Despite persistence by members of the media, <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/the-media/2017/12/29/fake-news-daily-mail-uses-4chan-hoax-to-accuse-white-house-intern-of-being-white-supremacist/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the “ok” signal’s connection to white supremacy is a myth</a>. The connection is thought to have originated as a prank from the site <em>4-chan</em> in 2017.</p>
<p>Dubbed “operation o-kkk,” anonymous users were instructed to spam liberal media outlets and social media platforms to claim the “ok” sign is a symbol for “white power.” Users were then instructed to create anonymous, left-leaning accounts to retweet the prank, simulate outrage at the gesture, and further amplify the campaign.</p>

Jason McCormick is an <a href="https://www.unl.edu/english/docs/cv-mccormick.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">adjunct professor</a> at Southeast Community College - Milford and a lecturer at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln. His areas of interest include issues of identity, college composition, and developmental composition course structures. He is currently completing his PhD at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln studying rhetoric and composition. He also enjoys writing fiction and has written contributor pieces for publications such as the <i>Huffington Post.</i><img class="size-large wp-image-1688 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Screen-Shot-2021-10-26-at-1.14.57-PM.png" alt="" width="502" height="176" />

In 2016, McCormick <a href="https://www.huffpost.com/entry/im-a-liberal-professor-and-my-conservative-students_b_5842031de4b0b93e10f8e201" target="_blank" rel="noopener">penned an article for the <i>Huffington Post</i></a> titled, “I’m A Liberal Professor And My Conservative Students Terrify Me.” In the article, McCormick outlines how his conservative students terrify him as an adjunct professor because “when they fail, it’s always personal.” He writes that he isn’t worried about his liberal students because they can have open discussions and work through triggers or disagreements together.

<img class="size-full wp-image-1687 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Screen-Shot-2021-10-26-at-1.16.19-PM.png" alt="" width="438" height="193" />

His conservative students, however, are a different story. He accuses them of throwing out fake arguments with no validity or proof and being hostile towards anyone who disagrees. He claims he was “terrified not to” give their ideas equal space in the classroom. He alleges that conservative students put their personal egos above respect for others in the classroom or factual arguments.

&nbsp;

Besides writing opinion pieces on how “terrifying” conservative students are, he also often takes to <i>Twitter</i> to discuss his disdain for conservatives and his approval of critical race theory. In a tweet from July 2021, McCormick <a href="https://twitter.com/JasonBMcCormick/status/1413471823761592326" target="_blank" rel="noopener">commented on a tweet </a>regarding the University of Nebraska voting to oppose Critical Race Theory. He commented that the regents should “apologize to every student trying to get a job” because the opposition of CRT “makes us all look bad.”

Dr. Gerard Harbison is an <a href="https://chem.unl.edu/gerard-harbison" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Emeritus Professor of Chemistry</a> at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln. His research interests include Computational Chemistry and NMR Spectroscopy. He has written several educational and research publications for several journals, including the <i>Journal of Molecular Structure</i> and the <i>Journal of Combinatorial Chemistry</i>.

When Dr. Harbison isn’t researching the origins of isotopomeric polymorphism, you can find him writing for his personal blog, titled, <a href="https://www.blogger.com/profile/06182552979528991484" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><i>Transmillenial</i></a>. According to his blog, Dr. Harbison identifies as a "millenial, atheist, catholic, feminist, scientist trapped in the body of a much older man.” His blog posts typically perpetuate the same rhetoric - conservatives (and Turning Point USA) are bad.

<img class="size-full wp-image-1708 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-03-at-11.55.56-AM.png" alt="" width="415" height="172" />

<a href="http://transmillenial.blogspot.com/2021/10/the-members-of-turning-point-usa-at-unl.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In a blog post from October 29, 2021</a>, Dr. Harbison named all of the members of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s Turning Point USA chapter and alleged they played a part in funding actions of “terrorists.” He writes, “Turning Point USA love lists. They have a long-standing list of faculty who have not hewn to the conservative way, either by writing stuff unfavorable to Donald Trump, or teaching things conservatives don't want to hear. So, in the spirit of listing and transparency, these are their current members at UNL.”

https://twitter.com/GerardHarbison/status/1435735688847233033

Dr. Harbison often takes to <i>Twitter </i>to discuss his hatred of conservatives and TPUSA. He accuses Turning Point USA of funding the storming of the Capitol on January 6, 2021, being terrorists, and of being white supremacists. Some examples of these tweets are below:

He again insinuates that anyone voting for Donald Trump is a white nationalist in a tweet just before the 2020 general election.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">In November, white nationalism is on the ballot. You can vote for it or you can vote against it.

<a href="https://physics.unh.edu/people/faculty/chanda-prescod-weinstein" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Dr. Chanda Prescod-Weinstein</span></a> is an Assistant Professor in the <a href="https://physics.unh.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Department of Physics and Astronomy</a> and a Core Faculty Member of the <a href="https://cola.unh.edu/womens-gender-studies" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Women’s and Gender Studies</a> Department at the <a href="https://cola.unh.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of New Hampshire</a>.

As a member of the organization, <a href="https://www.particlesforjustice.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Particles for Justice</a>, Dr. Prescod-Weinstein was a primary organizer for the “Strike for Black Lives” in June of 2020.

Particles for Justice is a far-left organization composed of scientists and mathematicians who are <a href="https://www.wired.com/story/physicists-condemn-sexism-through-particles-for-justice/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">dedicated to ending what they allege as “rampant racism and sexism in STEM fields</a>.” The group was first organized in 2018 to protest a lecture by physicist Alessandro Strumia, in which he affirmed that biological differences exist between men and women.

In the Summer of 2020, Dr. Prescod-Weinstein—who identifies as a <a href="https://magazine.scienceforthepeople.org/web-extras/particles-for-justice-racial-justice/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“black queer femme physicist”</a> and an “<a href="https://www.cprescodweinstein.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">activist for equality in science</a>”—and other scientists organized the strike among academics in solidarity with the <a href="https://m4bl.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Movement for Black Lives</a> (MBL), also referred to as the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement.

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"><i>The Federalist</i></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>

According to an official letter for the group—co-authored by Dr. Prescod-Weinstein—the organizers allege black students feel unsafe on <a href="https://www.particlesforjustice.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“predominantly white campuses” and professors face “anti-blackness” in academia</a>. The organizers called for <a href="https://www.particlesforjustice.org/strike-details" target="_blank" rel="noopener">academics to cease their normal university duties and spend the day protesting or conducting “antiracist“ actions on behalf of BLM</a>. As of June 10th, 2020, the website listed 5,874 administrators and professors as having walked off their jobs during the strike.

In her own personal statement authored for the strike, Dr. Prescod-Weinstein describes her efforts organizing the strike and the ongoing national protests as <a href="https://www.particlesforjustice.org/note" target="_blank" rel="noopener">an attempt to “save her life" and “the lives of all black people.</a>” She further decries having to conform culturally and professionally to “whiteness,” and urges white people to take up anti-racist work in order to make black people feel more comfortable.

Dr. Prescod-Weinstein’s activism and views are further displayed on her <a href="https://twitter.com/IBJIYONGI" target="_blank" rel="noopener">personal Twitter account</a>. She consistently tweets condemnations of America and conservatives as racist, support for critical race theory, and accusations that Israel is committing genocide against Arabs:

In a separate paper for The University of Chicago—​​titled, “Making Black Women Scientists under White Empiricism: The Racialization of Epistemology in Physics”— Dr. Prescod-Weinstein <a href="https://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/full/10.1086/704991#_i5" target="_blank" rel="noopener">decries the concept of objectivity under “European ideas of science”</a> dominating her field through “colonial force.” She defines “white empiricism” as serving “white supremacist traditions in science” at the expense of black scientists.

Dr. Finkelhor is known for his research into child sexual abuse and related topics.

Dr. Finkelhor lectures on a wide variety of subjects such as “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PpangX4UaO4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sexual Abuse Prevention</a>,” “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XsoYh5WF2Yc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Developmental Victimology</a>,” and more.

On March 23, 2022 Dr. Finkelhor participated in a webinar discussing the “<a href="https://twitter.com/libsoftiktok/status/1515916310814859264" target="_blank" rel="noopener">elements of voluntary participation</a>” by juveniles involved in sex crimes; saying that when trying to prevent sex crimes against children, it is key to realize that in some cases, it is the children themselves that are “initiating sexual activities with adults.” Dr. Finkelhor also suggested that he believes it is not “effective” to assume that a pedophilic relationship escalates because of a “predatory or criminally inclined adult.”

On June 25, 2020 in a webinar called “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PpangX4UaO4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Let's Talk About Prevention</a>,” Finkelhor stated that “Another thing about diversity that is very important to recognize is that in spite of the stereotype, most of the adult offenders are not “pedophiles”... Many are opportunistic and situational and acting on relationships that develop, or opportunities that are made available to them.”  Dr. Finkelhor refers to “offenders” as ambivalent and stresses the importance of differentiating the labels between a pedophile and an offender.

Recently, there have been articles questioning Dr. Finkelhor's motives on the subject.<em> <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/professor-says-minors-can-be-enthusiastically-involved-in-initiating-sexual-activities-with-adults" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Post Millennial</a></em> reports his statements, “There's not good enough research on issues related to maturity with regard to sexual behavior that allows a clear demarcation here.”  He noted that there can be elements of voluntary participation in statutory sex crimes wherein juveniles engage in sex with adults who are at least five years older than they are. Statutory rape, he said, is “much narrower than statutory sex crimes in general.”

Dr. Finkelhor’s rating on <em>Rate My Professor</em> is a <a href="https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/ShowRatings.jsp?tid=142310" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2.1 out of 5</a> with a number of reviews mentioning his teaching methods as “lecture heavy” and so on.

<span style="font-weight: 400;">When Ciccariello was confronted by </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndkvgmGIQHQ"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Tucker Carlson</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> over his tweets, he only proceeded to double-down. In the following exchange, he defended the academic veracity of his tweets by claiming, “performance art is scholarship.”</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Ciccariello doesn’t shy away from utilizing violence to accomplish his radical beliefs. In an op-ed for </span><a href="https://www.salon.com/2015/05/04/riots_work_wolf_blitzer_and_the_washington_post_completely_missed_the_real_lesson_from_baltimore/"><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Salon</span></i></a><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">,</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> he praised the riots that had engulfed Baltimore in 2015 in an article titled “Riots Work.” He wrote, </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">“without the threat of insurgency in the streets, no charges would ever have been brought in the murder of Freddie Gray.”</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Obviously not a proponent of police, Ciccariello openly </span><a href="https://www.salon.com/2015/04/24/we_must_disband_the_police_body_cameras_arent_enough_only_radical_change_will_stop_cops_who_kill/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">advocates</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> for the abolishment of police forces, describing them as, “originally slavecatchers.”</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">When not calling for the disbandment of our law enforcement, Ciccariello is an ardent defender of the socialist regime in Venezuela. He regularly </span><a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2013/04/12/thatcher-is-dead-long-live-chavez/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">praises</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Hugo Chavez and has bizarrely </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhYz1owM-uA&amp;feature=youtu.be"><span style="font-weight: 400;">claimed</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> that Venezuela does not have corrupt elections.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Ciccariello doesn’t shy away from violent groups as well. In order to fight white-nationalism, Ciccarello called on Americans to embrace the radical group ANTIFA in an interview with </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTv_hqjrmi8&amp;feature=youtu.be"><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Democracy Now</span></i></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> following the El Paso mass shooting. Although committed by a stated white nationalist, in the same interview Ciccariello placed the blame on Donald Trump for the deaths, claiming that his rhetoric on immigrants inspired the shooter’s rampage.  Ciccariello made similar accusations in a prior </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTv_hqjrmi8&amp;feature=youtu.be"><span style="font-weight: 400;">interview</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> about the Texas Church Massacre, alluding that “whiteness” and Trump’s stoking of white victimhood was to blame for the murders.</span>

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

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

<i>“DO NOT teach kids that the world is fair or a meritocracy! Stop the propaganda!” </i>She continues, “<i>The U.S. (and the world) have long and violent histories of racial subjugation. The status quo – what is normative in U.S. society is racism, white supremacy, and anti-blackness. Kids need to be progressively introduced to the harm of this racial hierarchy.”</i>

In addition to intervening when children make friends with “prejudiced” playmates, Dr. Poku recommends that parents do not “live your life in a white bubble.” This includes boycotting white-owned businesses in favor of those owned by minorities.

Stevenson made the list after making the claim that the lack of women found in Economics textbooks is the reason so few women pursue Economics as a major. In a study she conducted with Hanna Zlotnick, she found that 77% of people found in the leading Economics textbooks were male.

<a href="https://lsa.umich.edu/comm/people/regular-faculty/sdoug.html">Dr. Susan Douglas</a>, a professor at University of Michigan, publicized her hate for Republicans in an article from <em>In These Times</em>.

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Charles H.F. Davis is an Assistant Professor at the Center for the Study of Higher and Postsecondary Education at the University of Michigan. He previously taught at the University of Southern California. According to his university biography, Davis’s research and teaching focuses on, “</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">race and racism, systems of oppression, and structures of domination in U.S. higher education and its social contexts.”</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Davis previously rose to notoriety in 2017 for a series of <a href="https://twitter.com/hfdavis?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor">racially inflammatory tweets</a>. As </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">reported</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> by </span><a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/usc-professor-defends-tweet-promoting-violence-whiteness/"><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">The College Fix</span></i></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, he tweeted that “whiteness” must be destroyed and alluded to the necessity of violence in confronting it.</span>

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1308 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-04-21T135205.941-e1619038447297-1024x278.png" alt="" width="580" height="157" />

<span style="font-weight: 400;">The background photo of his Twitter account at the time featured a black woman pointing a gun at a pig that clearly represents a caricature of a police officer. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">When contacted <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/usc-professor-defends-tweet-promoting-violence-whiteness/"><em>The College Fix</em></a> over his remarks, Davis responded, </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">“</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">To be clear, I am decidedly against whiteness as a social and political ideology, which systematically marginalize and disenfranchise people of color from opportunities for societal advancement. In addition, I am against the institution of policing, which has historically and continuously enacted racial terror, sexual violence, and economic exploitation against racial minorities, women and LGBTQ communities, and economically disadvantaged working-class people</span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">.”</span></i>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">When asked if any of these tweets might make students uncomfortable, Davis </span><a href="http://hfdavis.com/blog/an-interview-with-a-conservative"><span style="font-weight: 400;">responded</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> that any discomfort experienced by his white students is a result of their “white fragility.” </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Davis had previously advocated for the right of students to disrupt conservative speakers on campus. In the wake of </span><a href="https://badgerherald.com/news/2016/11/17/conservative-pundit-ben-shapiro-lectures-to-turbulent-crowd-on-safe-spaces-freedom-of-speech/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">protesters heckling</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Ben Shapiro’s lecture at the University of Wisconsin Madison, school regents approved a </span><a href="https://www.chicagotribune.com/nation-world/ct-university-of-wisconsin-protest-punishment-20171006-story.html"><span style="font-weight: 400;">policy</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> to suspend or expel students that purposefully disrupt events. Davis’s subsequent </span><a href="https://www.chicagotribune.com/nation-world/ct-university-of-wisconsin-protest-punishment-20171006-story.html"><span style="font-weight: 400;">op-ed</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> at </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Inside Higher Ed </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">argued that this only reinforced white supremacy: </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">“</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">To be clear, it is a decision that reinforces institutionalized white supremacy -- and other oppressive forms of systemic power</span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">.”</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Davis argues that conservative speakers like Shapiro have hijacked the First Amendment to push “white supremacist agendas.”  </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Davis’s website, which is listed by the University of Michigan on his biography, </span><a href="https://static1.squarespace.com/static/51ab9fa0e4b06a38e604420a/t/5edaf71d1ab0434751b2e960/1591408468354/HF+Davis+%E2%80%93%C2%A0EPK.pdf"><span style="font-weight: 400;">advertises </span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">that he has taught the issues of “ race, racism, and systemic oppression in education and society” to over “7,000 students, educators and institutional leaders.” The </span><a href="http://hfdavis.com/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">home page</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> of the site also features links to organizations that advocate for the Black Lives Matter movement, abolishing the police, and boycotting the nation of Israel. </span>

<a href="https://lsa.umich.edu/ac/people/faculty/jchl.html">John Cheney-Lippold</a> is an Associate Professor at the University of Michigan whose work focuses on Internet Studies, Cultural Studies, and Algorithm Studies.

Lippold made<a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=11317"> headlines</a> for his blatant discrimination against a pro-Israel student at Michigan. After agreeing to the initial request, he refused to write a letter of recommendation for her to study abroad in Israel due to his adherence to the academic boycott of the nation. In a now released email exchange, Lippold replied to the student’s request:

<i>“As you may know, many university departments have pledged an academic boycott against Israel in support of Palestinians living in Palestine. This boycott includes writing letters of recommendations for students to study there.” </i>

In a<a href="https://nypost.com/2018/09/20/professor-draws-ire-after-declining-to-help-student-study-in-israel/"> statement</a> released by <a href="https://palestinelegal.org/">Palestine Legal</a>, he only proceeded to double-down and even compared Israel to Apartheid-era South Africa:

<i>“I support the Palestinian boycott call because I am appalled at Israel’s continuing violation of Palestinian rights, and our government’s support for those violations...If a student had wanted to do a study abroad at an institution in Apartheid South Africa, I would have declined to write a letter for her as well.”</i>

<p>Ms. <a href="https://www.etown.edu/offices/diversity/staff.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nichole Gonzalez</a> serves as the Dean of Students and Executive Director for the College for Diversity, Equity, and Belonging, as well as the Title IX Coordinator for <a href="https://www.etown.edu/index.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Elizabethtown College</a> in Pennsylvania.</p>
<p>On September 23rd, 2021, Ms. Gonzalez and other Elizabethtown College administrators requested to meet with the college’s TPUSA chapter president—Alexander Russo—regarding an upcoming event on September 27th. The chapter was set to host TPUSA Ambassador, Mr. Joe Basrawi, who planned to speak about Critical Race Theory in academia.</p>
<p>As <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2012/03/11/what-is-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ben Shapiro writes in <i>Breitbart News</i></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”.</p>
<p>In the meeting on the 23rd, Ms. Gonzalez informed Russo and other members present that the event would be canceled. Chapter members that have spoken with and provided corresponding emails to the Professor Watchlist Team have confirmed that Dr.Gonzalez canceled the event. She reportedly described Mr. Basrawi as “intentionally disruptive” and that his speech would be harmful to the campus due to the fact that he is not officially a “Critical Race Theorist.” Ms. Gonzalez stated that the college did not have time to put protections in place for marginalized groups and allowing the event to proceed would only further marginalize Elizabethtown’s minority students.</p>
<p>During the same meeting, Ms. Gonzalez allegedly pressured the chapter to disband and form a new group at the college. She stated that a conservative group aside from Turning Point USA would help facilitate a better community on campus.</p>
<p>As Mr. <a href="https://twitter.com/JoeBasrawi/status/1441401107809325063" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Basrawi has pointed out on Twitter</a>, Elizabethtown will be sponsoring a series of racially derogatory events during the fall semester, titled, the “Forum on White Supremacy and Global Colonization.” One training that will be <a href="https://etown.edu/centers/global/calendar.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hosted on October 12th, 21th, and November 2nd is titled, “Mediocre + Multimedia Content.*&#8221;</a></p>
<p>Upon completion of the training, participants will receive a copy of the book, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Mediocre-Dangerous-Legacy-White-America/dp/1580059511" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Mediocre: The Dangerous Legacy of White Male America”.</a> The book endorses a “new white male identity” to counteract “the devastating consequences of white male supremacy on women, people of color, and white men themselves.” The training is described as a “space for people who identify as people of color,” and bars white people from attending.</p>

He asserts that conservatives abuse their power and state authority and that those abusive practices are “woven into the very fabric of modern conservatism.”</p>

<p>In <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2021/10/13/manipulating-elections-is-conservative-tradition/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">another perspective piece</a> for <i>The Washington Post</i>, Huntington accuses conservatives of manipulating elections, claiming it’s “conservative tradition.” He claims that engineering elections is part of conservatives’ political heritage, and the idea that Democrats stole the 2020 election is a “central pillar” of conservative politics. He argues that conservatives “game the rules to gain power despite being in the minority.” Huntington believes that the 2020 election wasn’t the first time conservatives disagreed with an election outcome or tried to steal an election.</p>
<p>When Huntington isn’t writing books or articles about conservatives, he often takes to <i>Twitter</i> to show his hostility towards the political right. <a href="https://twitter.com/johnshuntington/status/1352670676302311425" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In a series of tweets</a> from January 2021, Huntington accuses Texas of targeting liberal professors. He also tweeted that conservatives “belly-ache” about ‘cancel culture’ which he believes is just them receiving criticism. The full tweet can be viewed below:</p>

In <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2021/10/13/manipulating-elections-is-conservative-tradition/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">another perspective piece</a> for <i>The Washington Post</i>, Huntington accuses conservatives of manipulating elections, claiming it’s “conservative tradition.” He claims that engineering elections is part of conservatives’ political heritage, and the idea that Democrats stole the 2020 election is a “central pillar” of conservative politics. He argues that conservatives “game the rules to gain power despite being in the minority.” Huntington believes that the 2020 election wasn’t the first time conservatives disagreed with an election outcome or tried to steal an election.

When Huntington isn’t writing books or articles about conservatives, he often takes to <i>Twitter</i> to show his hostility towards the political right. <a href="https://twitter.com/johnshuntington/status/1352670676302311425" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In a series of tweets</a> from January 2021, Huntington accuses Texas of targeting liberal professors. He also tweeted that conservatives “belly-ache” about ‘cancel culture’ which he believes is just them receiving criticism. The full tweet can be viewed below:

<p><a href="https://www.duq.edu/academics/faculty/derek-hook" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Dr. Derek Hook</span></a> is an associate professor in the Department of Psychology at <a href="https://www.duq.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Duquesne University</a> in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. During a lecture for the <a href="https://www.aapcsw.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">American Association for Psychoanalysis in Clinical Social Work</a> (AAPCSW), Dr. Hook <a href="https://twitter.com/MythinformedMKE/status/1430623830226186242" target="_blank" rel="noopener">stated</a> that it’s ethical for white people to die in order to atone for apartheid in South Africa.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.britannica.com/topic/apartheid" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Apartheid rule consisted of a series of discriminatory laws </a>enforced along racial lines against black South Africans by the ruling white minority. It is widely considered to have ended with the election of dissident Nelson Mandela as President of South Africa in 1994. The <a href="https://spectator.org/south-africa-covid-lockdowns-civil-unrest/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">nation has since been plagued with economic crises, endemic poverty, and social unrest</a>.</p>
<p>Many white South Africans, also known as “Boers,” have suffered what are known as “farm attacks.” Victims believe <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/world/how-a-survivor-of-a-south-african-white-farm-murder-is-fighting-back" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the attacks are conducted with prejudice and that assailants are overlooked by the South African government</a>. This suspicion is seemingly validated by a recent report demonstrating that <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5534449/South-Africas-white-farmers-likely-killed-police.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">white farmers are the victims of murders at far higher rates than the rest of the country’s population.</a> The violence is so pronounced that nations like the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210107020520/https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1032454567152246785" target="_blank" rel="noopener">United States</a> and <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-43403408" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Australia</a> have offered aid to farmers suffering from the violence.</p>
<p>Despite denials of ongoing persecution, the ruling government continues to exacerbate the crises in the country. In 2018, the <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/news/south-african-government-begins-seizing-land-white-farmers/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">South African government amended its constitution to allow for the forcible confiscation of property from white farmers without compensation</a>. Members of parliament have lauded the government’s policy as “<a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5534449/South-Africas-white-farmers-likely-killed-police.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">cutting the throat of whiteness</a>.”</p>
<p>In a video lecture for the AAPCSW—and captured by Twitter user, <i>Mythinformed MKE</i>—Dr. Hook can be heard <a href="https://twitter.com/MythinformedMKE/status/1430623830226186242" target="_blank" rel="noopener">advocating for the end of whiteness in South Africa</a> in a similar fashion. The video begins with Dr. Hook reading a quote questioning whether white people can ever be integrated into the country’s black majority. He states, “the only way for white people to become part of Africa is to not exist as white people anymore”.</p>
<p>He continues, “the goal has to be to dismantle white culture and ultimately white people themselves.” Dr. Hook further states the “death of white people” is necessary for integration to be successful;</p>

<p>After finishing, Dr. Hook argues there is something “ethical” about the passage he just read.</p>
<p>Dr. Hook further advocates for a “symbolic extinction” of white people to be achieved by the “castration of whiteness.”</p>
<p>The full remarks may be listened to below.</p>

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Much of Dr. Hook’s work surrounds the study of the term “whiteness.” In one paper, <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1057/s41282-020-00178-1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">he comments that professor Robin DiAngelo’s concept of “white fragility&#8221; does not go far enough</a>, as it is insufficiently “destabilizing” to whiteness in post-apartheid South Africa.</p>
<p>Dr. DiAngelo’s concept of white fragility accuses all white Americans of internalizing white supremacy. White Americans—according to DiAngelo—will therefore work to maintain their racism and preserve racist structures and the benefits they confer. Dr. DiAngelo’s full profile <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/robindiangelo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">may be viewed on TPUSA’s Professor Watchlist</a>.</p>
<p>The clip is a portion of Dr. Hook’s lecture in the “anti-racist” discussion on “nice white therapists”  that occurred during an AAPCSW conference. Following the publication of Dr. Hook’s remarks, the <a href="https://twitter.com/MythinformedMKE/status/1430946358287024129" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AAPCSW proceeded to remove all videos of the conference </a>from their Youtube page.</p>
<p>The Professor Watchlist Team reached out to Dr. Hook for comment but have not received a response by the time of publication.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><i>Update &#8211; </i>The Professor Watchlist Team has received a response to our inquiry from Gabriel Welsch, Vice President of Marketing and Communications at Duquesne. In a statement, the University has described our documentation of Dr. Hook’s statements as “ridiculous” and “reckless.” They further claim that Dr. Hook is a “highly respected expert” who does not advocate for violence. The University then accuses the Professor Watchlist team of taking Dr. Hook’s lecture out of context—despite the full context of the audio clip being included in the profile—to, “falsely illustrate advocacy for extreme behavior.”</p>
<p>The full text of the University’s response is provided below:</p>
<p><i>“The statement attributed to Professor Hook is ridiculous and reckless. He did not make a statement advocating anything like what was suggested. In fact, he said that the statement in question was &#8220;crazy.&#8221;   </i></p>
<p><i>Professor Hook also said that the provocateur who used this example was wrong in suggesting any such radical action. The words being circulated were simply lifted out of context to distort the actual comments. Saying that Professor Hook called for anything like the words in question is false.   </i></p>
<p><i>Duquesne University is a Catholic institution that condemns any suggestion that suicide is to be advocated or endorsed in any form.   </i></p>
<p><i>Professor Hook&#8217;s presentation was part of an invited online talk Professor Hook gave to the Baltimore-based American Association for Psychoanalysis in Clinical Social Work (AAPCSW), an international association for psychoanalytic social workers.

<a href="https://www.duq.edu/academics/faculty/derek-hook" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Dr. Derek Hook</span></a> is an associate professor in the Department of Psychology at <a href="https://www.duq.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Duquesne University</a> in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. During a lecture for the <a href="https://www.aapcsw.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">American Association for Psychoanalysis in Clinical Social Work</a> (AAPCSW), Dr. Hook <a href="https://twitter.com/MythinformedMKE/status/1430623830226186242" target="_blank" rel="noopener">stated</a> that it’s ethical for white people to die in order to atone for apartheid in South Africa.

<a href="https://www.britannica.com/topic/apartheid" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Apartheid rule consisted of a series of discriminatory laws </a>enforced along racial lines against black South Africans by the ruling white minority. It is widely considered to have ended with the election of dissident Nelson Mandela as President of South Africa in 1994. The <a href="https://spectator.org/south-africa-covid-lockdowns-civil-unrest/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">nation has since been plagued with economic crises, endemic poverty, and social unrest</a>.

Many white South Africans, also known as “Boers,” have suffered what are known as “farm attacks.” Victims believe <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/world/how-a-survivor-of-a-south-african-white-farm-murder-is-fighting-back" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the attacks are conducted with prejudice and that assailants are overlooked by the South African government</a>. This suspicion is seemingly validated by a recent report demonstrating that <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5534449/South-Africas-white-farmers-likely-killed-police.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">white farmers are the victims of murders at far higher rates than the rest of the country’s population.</a> The violence is so pronounced that nations like the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210107020520/https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1032454567152246785" target="_blank" rel="noopener">United States</a> and <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-43403408" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Australia</a> have offered aid to farmers suffering from the violence.

Despite denials of ongoing persecution, the ruling government continues to exacerbate the crises in the country. In 2018, the <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/news/south-african-government-begins-seizing-land-white-farmers/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">South African government amended its constitution to allow for the forcible confiscation of property from white farmers without compensation</a>. Members of parliament have lauded the government’s policy as “<a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5534449/South-Africas-white-farmers-likely-killed-police.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">cutting the throat of whiteness</a>.”

In a video lecture for the AAPCSW—and captured by Twitter user, <i>Mythinformed MKE</i>—Dr. Hook can be heard <a href="https://twitter.com/MythinformedMKE/status/1430623830226186242" target="_blank" rel="noopener">advocating for the end of whiteness in South Africa</a> in a similar fashion. The video begins with Dr. Hook reading a quote questioning whether white people can ever be integrated into the country’s black majority. He states, “the only way for white people to become part of Africa is to not exist as white people anymore”.

He continues, “the goal has to be to dismantle white culture and ultimately white people themselves.” Dr. Hook further states the “death of white people” is necessary for integration to be successful;

After finishing, Dr. Hook argues there is something “ethical” about the passage he just read.

Dr. Hook further advocates for a “symbolic extinction” of white people to be achieved by the “castration of whiteness.”

Much of Dr. Hook’s work surrounds the study of the term “whiteness.” In one paper, <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1057/s41282-020-00178-1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">he comments that professor Robin DiAngelo’s concept of “white fragility'' does not go far enough</a>, as it is insufficiently “destabilizing” to whiteness in post-apartheid South Africa.

Dr. DiAngelo’s concept of white fragility accuses all white Americans of internalizing white supremacy. White Americans—according to DiAngelo—will therefore work to maintain their racism and preserve racist structures and the benefits they confer. Dr. DiAngelo’s full profile <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/robindiangelo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">may be viewed on TPUSA’s Professor Watchlist</a>.

The clip is a portion of Dr. Hook’s lecture in the “anti-racist” discussion on “nice white therapists”  that occurred during an AAPCSW conference. Following the publication of Dr. Hook’s remarks, the <a href="https://twitter.com/MythinformedMKE/status/1430946358287024129" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AAPCSW proceeded to remove all videos of the conference </a>from their Youtube page.

The Professor Watchlist Team reached out to Dr. Hook for comment but have not received a response by the time of publication.

<i>Update - </i>The Professor Watchlist Team has received a response to our inquiry from Gabriel Welsch, Vice President of Marketing and Communications at Duquesne. In a statement, the University has described our documentation of Dr. Hook’s statements as “ridiculous” and “reckless.” They further claim that Dr. Hook is a “highly respected expert” who does not advocate for violence. The University then accuses the Professor Watchlist team of taking Dr. Hook’s lecture out of context—despite the full context of the audio clip being included in the profile—to, “falsely illustrate advocacy for extreme behavior.”

The full text of the University’s response is provided below:

<i>“The statement attributed to Professor Hook is ridiculous and reckless. He did not make a statement advocating anything like what was suggested. In fact, he said that the statement in question was "crazy."   </i>

<i>Professor Hook also said that the provocateur who used this example was wrong in suggesting any such radical action. The words being circulated were simply lifted out of context to distort the actual comments. Saying that Professor Hook called for anything like the words in question is false.   </i>

<i>Duquesne University is a Catholic institution that condemns any suggestion that suicide is to be advocated or endorsed in any form.   </i>

<i>Professor Hook's presentation was part of an invited online talk Professor Hook gave to the Baltimore-based American Association for Psychoanalysis in Clinical Social Work (AAPCSW), an international association for psychoanalytic social workers. It happened in June. While some of the content in the recording certainly contained troubling elements if taken alone, the full discussion only references the work of another person (Terblanche Delport, as the slides indicate) and the extreme proposition in the context of post-Apartheid South Africa.   </i>

<i>Professor Hook did not advocate taking the extreme measures Delport described. Professor Hook is not advocating, nor does he advocate violence. His effort to understand how extreme thought is developed is the point of the presentation.   </i>

<i>Professor Hook's expertise is in psychoanalysis, and his work considers psychoanalytic dimensions of racism in America and South Africa. He is a highly respected expert, and it is disappointing that his efforts to understand and challenge ideas that are admittedly extreme are being shared out of context to falsely illustrate an advocacy for extreme behavior.  </i>
