<a href="https://liberalarts.tulane.edu/departments/sociology/people/faculty/robin-bartram" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Robin Bartram</a>—Assistant Professor of Sociology for <a href="https://tulane.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tulane University</a>—contends that predominantly-black neighborhoods are in a state of disrepair due to racism, sexism, global warming, and the decades-long effect of redlining.
<a href="https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/redlining" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Redlining”</a> refers to an alleged practice by banks of discriminating against black Americans seeking loans and/or mortgages, confining them to poorer sections of cities. The existence of <a href="https://archive.naplesnews.com/news/thomas-sowell-politicians-created-the-lending-crisis-but-they-wont-solve-it-ep-401415710-344447982.html/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the practice has been disputed by economists like Thomas Sowell</a>, who notes a correlation between average credit scores among various races/nationalities and loan issuance.
Dr. Bartram still <a href="https://theconversation.com/black-women-endure-legacy-of-racism-in-homeownership-and-making-costly-repairs-190881" target="_blank" rel="noopener">attributes cites redlining as part of the “legacies of racism” that caused the dereliction of majority-black neighborhoods.</a> She reached this conclusion during a 10-year study on housing conditions in major American cities.
She concluded that black Americans had to commit more money to home repairs and were subject to predatory loans due to racist lending practices:
“The racism pervading the housing industry is now well known. The real estate industry has, at different points in history, excluded Black Americans from homeownership, included them through predatory loans and deals and reinforced racial segregation by denying loans to Black and other minority residents….”
Continuing, Dr. Bartram accuses mortgage lenders of sexism as well:
“These real estate agents and mortgage brokers knew Black women had limited options and assumed they would be likely to default on their mortgages. Black women were consistently sold homes that needed repairs.”
She further alleges that global warming will only compound “environmental racism” and its effects on poor, black communities.
In a similar article for South Side Weekly, she <a href="https://southsideweekly.com/op-ed-whats-wrong-with-chicagos-building-code/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">accuses white realtors of “lining their pockets” by leaving black borrowers unable to escape from their debt</a>. She calls for federal intervention in the form of zoning reforms and subsidies for repairs to alleviate systemic racism.  Bartram is also the author of “<a href="https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/S/bo174780463.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Stacked Decks: Building Inspectors and the Reproduction of Urban Inequality</a>.” She further served as the 2021-22 <a href="https://www.americanbarfoundation.org/research/Fellowshipopportunities/ABF_JPB_Foundation_Access_to_Justice_Scholars_Program0/2021_22_Access_to_Justice_Scholars.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Access to Justice Faculty Scholar</a> for the American Bar Association.

Mr. Hunter Biden is a former board member of Burisma Holdings and the son of the 46th President of the United States, Joe Biden.

This Fall 2021 semester, Mr. Biden will assist in lecturing a course titled <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2021/04/28/hunter-biden-to-teach-class-on-fake-news-at-tulane-university/">“Media Polarization and Public Policy Impacts”</a> at Tulane University in New Orleans, Louisiana. <a href="https://www.newsmax.com/politics/hunter-biden-tulane-media-polarization-fake-news/2021/04/28/id/1019344/">Newsmax reports</a> that the course will be co-led by Professors Mitchel Sellers and Andrew Schwartz, and will include speakers such as Juan Williams, Brett Stephens, Susan Glasser, and Dr. Deborah Birx, among others.

According to the course syllabus—<a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9518187/Hunter-Biden-guest-teach-class-fake-news-Tulane-University-fall.html">obtained by The Daily Mail</a>—Mr. Biden will be lecturing students on “America’s rapidly advancing partisan divide. . .fueled substantially by the growing political polarization increasingly evident in our news media. This course will explore the current state of the media landscape in the United States and how media polarization, fake news, and the news business impact public policymaking in Washington, D.C.”

&nbsp;

In October 2020, while his father—Joe Biden—was campaigning as the Democratic nominee for President, Mr. Biden faced intense scrutiny in regards to an <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/10/15/emails-reveal-how-hunter-biden-tried-to-cash-in-big-with-chinese-firm/">exposé by The New York Post</a> for allegedly leveraging his relationship with then-Vice President Biden for financial gain. Emails obtained by The New York Post reveal Mr. Biden’s communications regarding a multi-million dollar investment in a Chinese firm and the <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/hunter-biden-ukraine-burisma-adviser-email?fbclid=IwAR0zYG1KP-DcppQPdF_8KoiVY6pjPK91vUTyHLG7QelQdq1RA53z004FVTA">facilitation of a meeting</a> between a board member of Burisma Holdings and Joe Biden (while he was Vice President) in 2016.

Following the meeting, then Vice President Biden <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/2020-election/2019/11/04/report-joe-biden-pressured-ukraine-to-fire-top-prosecutor-after-burisma-lobbying-effort/">allegedly pressured the Ukranian government</a> to terminate the prosecutor responsible for investigating Burisma Holdings for corruption—while Mr. Hunter Biden received a $50,000 a month salary from the company. Then-presidential candidate Biden had <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/joe-biden-ukraine-hunter-denial">denied</a> knowledge of his son’s business deals.

The reports were dismissed by then-presidential candidate Biden, who <a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/joe-biden-says-hunter-biden-laptop-story-is-russian-plan-despite-lack-of-evidence/ar-BB1ajFg1">described</a> the story as “Russian disinformation.” In a <a href="https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000175-4393-d7aa-af77-579f9b330000">published statement</a>, fifty former intelligence and national security officials, including former CIA Director John Brennan, additionally described the report as a “Russian information operation.” The letter states, “We want to emphasize that we do not know if the emails, provided to the New York Post by President Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani, are genuine or not and that we do not have evidence of Russian involvement—just that our experience makes us deeply suspicious that the Russian government played a significant role in this case.”

&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000175-4393-d7aa-af77-579f9b330000"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-1376 size-full" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/Screen-Shot-2021-05-24-at-2.59.23-PM.png" alt="" width="574" height="763" /></a>

&nbsp;

Following the publication of the emails, social media companies immediately began to censor the report on their respective platforms. <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/10/14/facebook-twitter-block-the-post-from-posting/">According to The New York Post</a>, the newspaper was denied access to its Twitter account for alleged distribution of “hacked materials.” Twitter also prevented all users from sharing The New York Post’s report on the controversial issue. <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/10/14/facebook-limits-spread-of-the-posts-hunter-biden-expose/">Facebook similarly prevented</a> users from sharing the article, stating that the company would prevent the distribution of the story on its site until it could be reviewed by Facebook’s “third-party fact-checking partners.”

The authenticity of the communications were later validated by Mr. Hunter Biden’s former business partner, Tony Bobulinski, who was a recipient of many of the published emails. Bobulinski detailed Hunter's overseas business ties—and President Joe Biden’s knowledge of the emails—in an interview<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zLfBRgeFFo&amp;ab_channel=FoxNews"> on Fox News’ Tucker Carlson Tonight</a>, which can be viewed below.

&nbsp;

The Director of National Intelligence in late 2020, John Ratcliffe, later <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/oct/19/no-russian-conspiracy-biden-laptop-scandal-dni-rat/">confirmed</a> that there was “no intelligence” that the report was part of a Russian disinformation campaign. After the 2020 general election that saw Joe Biden win the Presidency, <a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/hunter-biden-reveals-he-is-under-federal-investigation/ar-BB1bNb9t">Mr. Hunter Biden revealed</a> that he was under federal investigation for his business dealings, and had been since 2018. It is unclear if those investigations continue as of the publication of this profile.

Hunter Biden has additionally come under scrutiny for allegedly lying on a Firearms Transaction Record to <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2021/03/26/read-the-gun-background-check-form-where-hunter-biden-claimed-he-wasnt-using-drugs/">illegally purchase a firearm</a>. In 2018, Hunter Biden answered, “no'' to the question, “Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?” Hunter Biden has checked himself into rehab for drug abuse multiple times over the course of his life.  It is a felony offense to lie on a gun purchase form when buying a gun.

In June of 2021, additional text messages from Hunter Biden’s laptop were published, in which he repeatedly <a href="https://nypost.com/2021/06/08/hunter-biden-repeatedly-called-his-white-lawyer-the-n-word-texts-show/">referred to his lawyer using the “n-word”</a> amongst other crude remarks.

In June of 2021, additional, explicit text messages from Hunter Biden’s laptop were published, in which he repeatedly called <a href="https://nypost.com/2021/06/08/hunter-biden-repeatedly-called-his-white-lawyer-the-n-word-texts-show/">his lawyer the “n-word”</a> and <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9689809/No-yellow-Hunter-Biden-referred-Asians-slur-2019-texts.html?ito=social-twitter_dailymailus">referred to Asians as the slur “yellow.</a>”

Further comments on the incident are found in his autobiography “<a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/The_Hands_that_Crafted_the_Bomb/1WS2EAAAQBAJ?hl=en&amp;gbpv=1&amp;dq=the+hands+that+crafted+the+bomb&amp;printsec=frontcover" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Hands That Crafted the Bomb</a>.”
During the interview, Fernandez introduced himself by stating:
“I’ve been an anti-racist organizer for most of my life, starting with anti-racist action back when I was a kid and continuing to this day. So that takes up the entirety of my life. I’m married with two children, so growing up in this weird ass world we live in I’m trying to teach them some of the things I’ve learned along the way in terms of anti-racist organizing and trying to bring that into my classroom a little bit.” 
When asked about the process of writing his book, Fernandez stated that his “notes were full of rage” as he reflected on a past of drug addiction, abandonment by his father, and being investigated. He also described the writing process as “brutal” and “traumatic” and said the framing of the book was based on the “post-Charlottesville craze of red scare against Antifa.”

Reflecting on the investigation into his anti-fascist club, Fernandez wrote in the opening of <a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/The_Hands_that_Crafted_the_Bomb/1WS2EAAAQBAJ?hl=en&amp;gbpv=1&amp;dq=the+hands+that+crafted+the+bomb&amp;printsec=frontcover" target="_blank" rel="noopener">his novel</a>:
“I am a Mexican, but not dark like my ancestors…Because of my racial ambiguity, I see the school administrators eyeing me, wondering if I’m easy to tame…Because I understand the severity of being called before the college administration, I bring with me two union reps.”
He continued:

In July 2024, Fernandez was <a href="https://www.corrections1.com/investigations/calif-prison-education-programs-future-uncertain-after-investigation-of-9-faculty-members" target="_blank" rel="noopener">featured in an article</a> as one of nine professors being investigated for using improper teaching methods with imprisoned students. Some students penned complaint letters declaring their counseling needs were unmet and textbooks were not provided for the course. Fernandez, among others, also allegedly went against protocol by having the prisoners complete assignments outside the approved syllabus and transporting students’ papers off the premises.

The Real News Network <a href="https://therealnews.com/a-professor-started-an-anti-fascist-college-club-and-found-himself-under-investigation" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article</a> includes a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zk9UKpjA-8w" target="_blank" rel="noopener">podcast interview</a> transcript featuring Fernandez’s account of the so-called “anti-fascist club” he recruited students to join. Further comments on the incident are found in his autobiography “<a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/The_Hands_that_Crafted_the_Bomb/1WS2EAAAQBAJ?hl=en&amp;gbpv=1&amp;dq=the+hands+that+crafted+the+bomb&amp;printsec=frontcover" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Hands That Crafted the Bomb</a>.”

During the interview, Fernandez introduced himself by stating:

“I’ve been an anti-racist organizer for most of my life, starting with anti-racist action back when I was a kid and continuing to this day. So that takes up the entirety of my life. I’m married with two children, so growing up in this weird ass world we live in I’m trying to teach them some of the things I’ve learned along the way in terms of anti-racist organizing and trying to bring that into my classroom a little bit.” 

When asked about the process of writing his book, Fernandez stated that his “notes were full of rage” as he reflected on a past of drug addiction, abandonment by his father, and being investigated. He also described the writing process as “brutal” and “traumatic” and said the framing of the book was based on the “post-Charlottesville craze of red scare against Antifa.”

Reflecting on the investigation into his anti-fascist club, Fernandez wrote in the opening of <a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/The_Hands_that_Crafted_the_Bomb/1WS2EAAAQBAJ?hl=en&amp;gbpv=1&amp;dq=the+hands+that+crafted+the+bomb&amp;printsec=frontcover" target="_blank" rel="noopener">his novel</a>:

“I am a Mexican, but not dark like my ancestors…Because of my racial ambiguity, I see the school administrators eyeing me, wondering if I’m easy to tame…Because I understand the severity of being called before the college administration, I bring with me two union reps.”

He continued:

In July 2024, Fernandez was <a href="https://www.corrections1.com/investigations/calif-prison-education-programs-future-uncertain-after-investigation-of-9-faculty-members" target="_blank" rel="noopener">featured in an article</a> as one of nine professors being investigated for using improper teaching methods with imprisoned students. Some students penned complaint letters declaring their counseling needs were unmet and textbooks were not provided for the course. Fernandez, among others, also allegedly went against protocol by having the prisoners complete assignments outside the approved syllabus and transporting students’ papers off the premises.

The August 2024 <a href="https://www.capradio.org/articles/2024/08/19/los-rios-prison-and-reentry-education-program-faculty-cleared-of-wrongdoing-following-investigation/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article</a> by CapRadio said Fernandez was cleared of wrongdoing by the Los Rios Community College District’s Prison and Reentry Education Program.

<a href="https://www.usfca.edu/faculty/j-garrett-walker" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. J. Garrett Walker</a> is an Associate Professor in the Psychology Department at the University of San Francisco. According to her university profile, Walker’s research is focused “on mental health and multiple identity development for two-spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (2SLGBTQ+) emerging adults with a focus on Black and other racialized communities.”
According to <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article/university-professors-attack-white-heterosexual-christian-males-privileged/6041" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Campus Reform</a>, Walker created a “Check Your Privilege” campaign in order for white students to recognize structural inequalities around them. Walker used a campus-wide campaign with fliers suggesting that anyone who is white, heterosexual, able-bodied, Christian, or male is privileged. 
Concerning the &#8220;Check Your Privilege&#8221; campaign, Walker stated the following as her goals:
“We just hope that people use this as an opportunity to think critically about the world around them and challenge themselves to really consider the implications of structural inequalities and how they, as an individual, can help mitigate the negative effects of social inequalities.&#8221;
The University of San Francisco’s <a href="https://myusf.usfca.edu/student-life/intercultural-center/check-your-privilege">webpage</a> for the campaign states that it “was implemented to raise student, faculty, and staff awareness around social inequalities and privilege.” In addition to those of Walker, the following goals for the campaign were listed by the college: 
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“To increase knowledge and improve beliefs about privilege.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">To heighten awareness of privilege among the USF community.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">To encourage the use of privilege to advocate for others.”</li>
</ul>
The website also has a series of “privilege posters” for students to use as examples for their work on the campaign. Among these posters are a “White Male” and a “Cisgender” privilege poster. (See images below):

*Following coverage by the Professor Watchlist team, Murray no longer teaches at the University of San Francisco.* 
&nbsp;

<a href="http://alignedleft.com/">Scott Murray</a> was an Associate Professor at the University of San Francisco. Murray was a part of a campus-wide campaign called “Check Your Privilege.” They handed out shirts and fliers that displayed different privilege-checking criteria. One flier said, "If you can expect time off from work to celebrate your religious holidays, you have Christian Privilege."

<a href="https://www.usfca.edu/faculty/sonja-poole">Dr. Sonja Poole</a> is an Associate Professor at the University of San Francisco. Poole, along with two other professors, created a “Check Your Privilege” campaign. The campaign involved passing out flyers with various ‘privileges’ such as being white, heterosexual, or Christian. One flyer said, “If you can comfortably walk down the street while holding your partner’s hand, you have the heterosexual privilege.”

In an interview with the University of Georgia’s student publication, “<a href="https://www.redandblack.com/uganews/uga-professor-founds-racial-equality-education-project/article_5b019170-cd51-11ea-bd50-a3bd8e0c6368.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Red &amp; Black</a>,” Dr. Tosolt states that she wants to help teachers become anti-racist and “unlearn their whiteness.” She advocates for educators to recognize “the whiteness embedded in their institutions and teach them to use their privilege to get rid of their privilege.”  
Dr. Tosolt hopes to eradicate “anti-blackness” by including more black authors in the curriculum and removing police officers from schools in order to “interrupt racism:”  
“The goal is to interrupt racism through multiple measures such as choosing Black authors, selecting resources that are authentic and multifaceted, and advocating for the election of Black people to school boards.”
These ideas are core themes in one of Dr. Tosolt’s courses titled “Racism and Sexism in Education.” The videos listed for the class include an introduction in which Dr. Tosolt expresses <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rEYIXCDOzU&amp;list=PL2njuXn6coFyHNgNK3pmn41SoxIhwX8_n&amp;ab_channel=BrandelynTosolt" target="_blank" rel="noopener">her desire to create “anti-racist” educators</a>.

She writes the celebration of the holiday only serves to reinforce white supremacy.
“&#8230;White teachers as authority figures who regulate the presence of Blackness, and without drawing attention to the White supremacist cultural norms that are the foundation for U.S. society, students can walk away from Black History Month with a reinforced belief in White supremacy.”
Dr. Tosolt advocates for teachers to learn critical race theory in order to fully disrupt an education system “built on a system of whiteness, entrenched in a white supremacy culture, and defended by white fragility.”
The Professor Watchlist reached out to Dr. Tosolt for comment but has not received a response by the time of publication.

<a href="https://www.fau.edu/artsandletters/scms/faculty/morse/index/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nicole Morse</a> is a transgender professor of Gender Studies at Florida Atlantic University. Morse uses “they/them/theirs” pronouns and “examines diversity within LGBTQ communities, especially issues related to race, class, incarceration, and misogyny.”
After Hamas terrorists attacked Israel on October 7, Morse penned an op-ed for the <a href="https://www.palmbeachpost.com/story/opinion/letters/2023/10/09/house-gop-must-engage-in-the-world-and-support-israel-and-ukraine/71072003007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Palm Beach Post</a> titled, “War steeped in Palestinian oppression.” Morse wrote:
“For 75 years, Palestinians have faced brutal oppression, and every US taxpayer is complicit in this violence and oppression. The root of today’s violence is this history of oppression, which is funded by the U.S. and supported without question by South Florida politicians.”
“As a Jew and as a human being committed to human rights, I must speak out against this complicity and I hope that others will join me in demanding that the U.S. end military support for Israel.” 
Later in October 2023, Morse was <a href="https://freebeacon.com/campus/florida-atlantic-university-gender-studies-professor-arrested-at-pro-hamas-protest/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">arrested at a “stand with Palestine” rally</a> outside of Senator Rick Scott’s office. The rally was organized by Jewish Voice for Peace’s South Florida chapter—a pro-Palestine organization of which Morse is a member—and accused Israel of overseeing a “genocide in Gaza.”
<a href="https://thenationaldesk.com/news/americas-news-now/fau-trans-studies-professor-arrested-during-pro-palestine-rally" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The National Desk</a> reports:
“Morse, along with a group of protesters, entered the lobby of the building after 5:00 p.m. and blocked its front entrance while holding signs urging Scott to call for a ceasefire. When building security asked the protesters to continue their rally on public property, they ‘refused to move,’ the affidavit reads. Officers gave the protesters a second chance ‘but they again refused.’”
Morse and three others were taken to the Coral Gables Police Department where they were charged with misdemeanors. To escape jailtime, Morse signed a promise to appear document where she agreed to appear in court on her trial date.

McCune taught the first two classes of “Politics of Kanye West” at Washington University. The <a href="https://www.coursicle.com/wustl/courses/AMCS/3016/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">course description</a> says, “Coupling his controversial moments, with his corpus of musical texts…this course illuminates ‘Mr. West’ as a case studey [sic] for interrogating the interplay between fame, gender, sexuality, and race. Mostly, we explore how racialized ways of doing iconography…creates a reductive frame through which we see the black and famous.”
NBC News said, pending approval by the University of Rochester’s college curriculum committee, McCune plans to start teaching Politics of Kanye West by the spring or fall of 2023.
In his book “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Sexual-Discretion-Masculinity-Politics-Passing/dp/022609653X?asin=022609653X&amp;revisionId=&amp;format=4&amp;depth=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sexual Discretion: Black Masculinity and the Politics of Passing</a>,” McCune discusses sex between black men who maintain heterosexual lifestyles and allegedly spread HIV/AIDs to black women. McCune writes in the Preface,
“Having been in conversations with HIV/AIDS epidemic researchers and practitioners…I knew that this discourse had all the ingredients of not only creating moral/cultural panic, but irresponsibly marking black DL [“down-low”] men as sexual suspects who are the new vectors of contagion. Furthermore, the manipulation of black female representation had all the telltale signs of another moment of painting these women as victims without sexual agency.”
He continues,
“[M]y prophetic vision took hold of my academic trajectory — conjuring a desire not to prove wrong or challenge the discursive constructs of these men, but to gain a richer understanding of the complexity of their lives in the midst of public scrutiny. And in doing so, I was called out of my own position of discretion.”
The University of Rochester News Center <a href="https://www.rochester.edu/newscenter/university-of-rochester-establishes-department-of-black-studies-540742/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">published an article on November 8, 2022</a>, titled “University of Rochester establishes Department of Black Studies.” McCune, who was announced as the director, said, “The study of Black people in the world is a major project encompassing geography, culture, political science, sociology, economics, and creativity. All of that is robust and deserves to be studied seriously.”

<a href="https://anthropology.princeton.edu/people/faculty/julia-elyachar" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Julia Elyachar</a> is an Associate Professor of Anthropology at Princeton University. According to her university profile, Elyachar is “broadly trained in economics, history of political and economic thought, political economy, social theory, Middle Eastern Studies, and Arabic language.”
In April 2024, Elyachar signed a “<a href="https://www.dailyprincetonian.com/article/2024/04/princeton-opinion-opguest-faculty-staff-solidarity-palestine-protestors-columbia-barnard-encampment" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Statement of solidarity with Columbia University students from Princeton faculty and staff</a>.” The statement came after student protestors established a “Gaza Solidarity Encampment” on the lawns of Columbia University, disrupting campus operations, sparking safety concerns, and causing classes to be <a href="https://www.tpusa.com/live/columbia-university-moves-classes-online-as-pro-palestine-protests-spark-safety-concerns" target="_blank" rel="noopener">held remotely</a> for the remainder of the semester.
The statement begins:
“We, Princeton University faculty and staff, affirm our solidarity with and support for the Columbia University and Barnard College students who are continuing to demand that the university divest from Israel’s genocide in Gaza and ongoing occupation of the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and other Palestinian land.” 
The signatories have committed to boycotting Columbia University and Barnard College until several demands are met, including:
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“We call upon the Columbia University administration to reinstate those students who were wrongfully suspended for exercising their constitutionally recognized right to speech and peaceful assembly.”</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“We demand that all charges be dismissed and expunged from their student records, and that all rights and privileges be restored to them immediately.”</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“We call upon the Columbia University administration to remove the New York City Police Department from campus. All criminal charges that have been brought against student protestors who were arrested by the NYPD at the behest of the university administration should be dropped immediately.”</li>
</ul>
The faculty and staff have also called for the university to reverse the suspension of two student groups, Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine and Columbia Jewish Voice for Peace. They concluded their statement with the following:
“We vow to withhold our academic labor from Columbia and Barnard, not to participate in conferences and other campus events, and not to collaborate with university institutions until such time as the administration has met these demands and demonstrated its commitments to upholding the well-established norms of unrestricted scholarly inquiry and academic freedom.” 
Elyachar also signed an open letter published by <a href="https://www.dailyprincetonian.com/article/2023/10/princeton-opinion-openletter-solidarity-israel-palestine-peace-justice" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Daily Princetonian</a> on November 29, 2023, titled “An open letter from Princeton faculty and students in solidarity with Gaza.” The letter included the following quote:
“The ongoing Israeli assault upon the Gaza Strip must be stopped … The international community must force Israel, Hamas, and all parties to the conflict to adhere strictly to the letter of international law, first and foremost by putting an immediate and complete halt to the unchecked collective punishment currently being deployed against Palestinians in Gaza.” 
The writers further claimed there is a “widespread dehumanization and erasure of Palestinian life in the United States” and that students who voice support for Palestinians are “continuously subjected to harassment, intimidation, imperiled job prospects, and threats to their personal safety.”
The letter concluded by acknowledging the university’s efforts to “reach out to Jewish community members as well as those with Israeli citizenship to check on their well-being.” They then state:
“We find it unacceptable, however, that Palestinian, Arab, and Muslim students were not and have not been accorded a similar show of respect and care. We call upon the University administration to do everything in its power to ensure that all Princetonians are recognized and feel safe and seen in this moment of accelerating grief, horror, and outright danger.”

Princeton Bioethics Professor Peter Singer made headlines after sharing his views on sex acts with animals. On November 8, 2023, Singer shared what he called a “thought-provoking article” titled “<a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mOOHWhgfENSAz-Bl7kQb9fPHHzRqh9Dm/view" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Zoophilia Is Morally Permissible</a>.” Singer said that “[the article] challenges one of society's strongest taboos and argues for the moral permissibility of some forms of sexual contact between humans and animals.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Another thought-provoking article is "Zoophilia Is Morally Permissible" by Fira Bensto (pseudonym), which is just out in the current issue of <a href="https://twitter.com/JConIdeas?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@JConIdeas</a>.
This piece challenges one of society's strongest taboos and argues for the moral permissibility of some forms of sexual… <a href="https://t.co/32fIaJEJ1J">pic.twitter.com/32fIaJEJ1J</a>

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

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

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

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

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

&nbsp;

In another post, she flagrantly alleges that Israel is engaged in the ethnic cleansing of the West Bank and Gaza, despite the <a href="https://www.camera.org/article/methodist-staffer-demonizes-israel-reveals-ignorance/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">resident Arab population quadrupling since 1948</a>,
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
What we are witnessing is not the “eviction” of Palestinians from their homes. This is ethnic cleansing. This is the most basic expression of settler colonialism. This is the illegal and immoral expulsion of Palestinians with the expectation they are “accepted” elsewhere. <a href="https://t.co/erLUdzIdP8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://t.co/erLUdzIdP8</a>

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Christopher Nunez is a formerly undocumented, visually impaired choreographer, educator, and accessibility consultant who was named Princeton University Arts Fellow for 2022-2024. Nunez’s university <a href="https://arts.princeton.edu/news/2022/03/princeton-arts-fellows-for-2022-2024-announced/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fellowship announcement says</a>, “His performances have been presented at The Brooklyn Museum for The Immigrant Artist Biennale…” and “his work has been featured in publications such as The New York Times…” 

His personal biography webpage states,

“Since his arrival in NYC, Nunez has supported and worked for different social causes, groups, and organizations for the rights of undocumented, disabled, indigenous, and LGBT+ people. He has been the Manager of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility for Dance/NYC…[and was] a core member of the Artists of Color Council at Movement Research.”

“Nunez [is the] Founder of the Accessibility Advisory Team (AAT), a group of disabled artists who advise Movement Research on accessibility and inclusion practices through its various departments and platform.”

Nunez teaches a course called “<a href="https://arts.princeton.edu/courses/introduction-to-radical-access-disability-justice-in-the-arts/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Introduction to Radical Access: Disability Justice in the Arts.</a>”  The class introduction says, “Disability is front and center in a global social justice revolution…This course invites all artists, from choreographers to theater makers, filmmakers, visual artists, writers, and composers to immerse in a highly collaborative, improvisational, experimental and inclusive community to explore Disability Justice…”

<a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/princeton-agender-and-neurodivergent-performer-flaunts-disability-and-anti-technique/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The College Fix reports</a>, “The ‘Intro to Radical Access’ Princeton Dance program and Program for Community Engaged Scholarship hosted [a] ‘anti-technique’ performance.” However, Catholic students were moved to pray against evil spirits after attending the controversial dance performance that featured Nunez and two other "disabled" artists.

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

Gabrie’l Atchison is the instructor for AAS 220/GSS 229: Body Politics: Black Queer Visibility and Representation at Princeton University. The <a href="https://registrar.princeton.edu/course-offerings/course-details?term=1234&amp;courseid=016604" target="_blank" rel="noopener">class description</a> states that the curriculum will “examine Black LGBTQ+ representation across various media including documentaries, television, social media, and literature.”

Atchison’s profile — which can only be found on the class description page — also shows her research “includes gender-based environmental violence, environmental racism/justice, ecofeminism, feminist/queer theology…Black church history…and African American women’s literary criticism.” 

Atchison contributes to a blog called <a href="https://www.antiracistdevotional.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Anti-Racist Devotional</a>. On <a href="https://www.antiracistdevotional.org/dr-gabriel-atchison" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Atchison’s About page</a> she describes herself as a “Black Feminist theologian” and the Congregational Development Director at Trinity Episcopal Church who researches “the role of the church in the racial identity development of Black Episcopalians.”

In her book titled “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B6GQR4FJ/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0?asin=B0B6GQR4FJ&amp;revisionId=ca68030b&amp;format=1&amp;depth=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Are You the Unchurched?: How to Develop an Authentic Relationship with God inside or outside the Church</a>,” Atchison remarked on survey results from a Christian research institute. She said,

“Overwhelmingly, young adults who were studied named hostility toward [LGBTQ+] people as the reason they do not attend church…Based on my understanding of the research, the unchurched are Christians who are:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">College-educated</li>
</ul>
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Progressive</li>

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

<a href="https://history.princeton.edu/people/kevin-m-kruse" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kevin Kruse</a> is a Professor of History and the Director of the Center for Collaborative History at Princeton University. His faculty biography says Kruse “studies the political social, and urban/suburban history of 20th-century America.” He’s also “focused on conflicts over race, rights, and religion…[with] particular interests in segregation and the civil rights movement.”

Kruse has published several manuscripts including a 2005 book entitled “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/White-Flight-Atlanta-Conservatism-Politics/dp/0691133867?asin=0691133867&amp;revisionId=&amp;format=4&amp;depth=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">White Flight: Atlanta and the Making of Modern Conservatism.</a>” Kruse introduces the novel by stating,

“This book explores the causes and course of white flight, with Atlanta serving as its vantage point…While many have assumed that white flight was little more than a literal movement of the white population, this book argues that it represented a much more important transformation in the political ideology of those involved.”

He continued,

“Because of their confrontation with the civil rights movement, white southern conservatives were forced to abandon their traditional, populist, and often starkly racist demagoguery and instead craft a new conservatism predicated on a language of rights, freedom, and individualism.”

In June 2022, <a href="https://freebeacon.com/campus/double-standards-princeton-turns-blind-eye-to-plagiarism-from-woke-professor/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Washington Free Beacon</a> featured Kruse in an article titled “Double Standards: Princeton Turns Blind Eye to Plagiarism From Woke Professor.” According to the Beacon, “On December 6, the economic historian Phillip Magness emailed Princeton’s dean of faculty, Gene Jarrett, with evidence that [Kruse] plagiarized several passages of his 2015 book ‘One Nation Under God.’”

Magness cited passages of Kruse’s book as allegedly originating from a New York Times Article that was published in the mid-1960s. The Beacon said, “The university never replied to Magness’s email…and has not announced an investigation of Kruse.”

<a href="https://www.dailyprincetonian.com/article/2022/08/kevin-kruse-plagiarism-allegations-academic-princeton-investigation-phillip-magness-history" target="_blank" rel="noopener">According to the Daily Princetonian</a>, “Kruse expressed ‘surprise’ at the allegations and attributed the lack of citations in one instance to an inadvertent oversight.” Kruse also allegedly plagiarized a professor in his 2000 Cornell University doctoral thesis. The Princetonian quoted an email response from Kruse stating,

“‘While I indicated my intellectual debts to [author] Prof. Baylor else in the text, endnotes and bibliography of the dissertation, I was surprised to see that there was an instance in the introduction [where] I failed to do so properly.’”

<a href="https://www.plagiarismtoday.com/2022/06/27/kevin-kruse-and-the-peak-political-plagiarism-scandal/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Plagiarism Today said</a>, “Kruse is not your typical alleged plagiarist…Kruse has made a career for himself as an activist that corrects and criticizes right-wing talking points on history. He has over half a million followers on Twitter and a high-profile position at Princeton, both of which have given him clout.”

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

“We, Princeton University faculty and staff, affirm our solidarity with and support for the Columbia University and Barnard College students who are continuing to demand that the university divest from Israel’s genocide in Gaza and ongoing occupation of the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and other Palestinian land.” 
The signatories have committed to boycotting Columbia University and Barnard College until several demands are met, including: 
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“We call upon the Columbia University administration to reinstate those students who were wrongfully suspended for exercising their constitutionally recognized right to speech and peaceful assembly.”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“We demand that all charges be dismissed and expunged from their student records, and that all rights and privileges be restored to them immediately.” </li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“We call upon the Columbia University administration to remove the New York City Police Department from campus. All criminal charges that have been brought against student protestors who were arrested by the NYPD at the behest of the university administration should be dropped immediately.” </li>
</ul>
The faculty and staff have also called for the university to reverse the suspension of two student groups, Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine and Columbia Jewish Voice for Peace. They concluded their statement with the following: 
“We vow to withhold our academic labor from Columbia and Barnard, not to participate in conferences and other campus events, and not to collaborate with university institutions until such time as the administration has met these demands and demonstrated its commitments to upholding the well-established norms of unrestricted scholarly inquiry and academic freedom.”

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

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

He has written several educational and research publications for several journals, including the Journal of Molecular Structure and the Journal of Combinatorial Chemistry.

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">Transmillenial</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.

<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.”

<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.”

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 Twitter account, Dr. Kohen asks why the students and former TPUSA staff pictured are flashing “the same white power symbol” as the Christchurch shooter.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
This is a serious question for <a href="https://twitter.com/RepDonBacon?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@RepDonBacon</a>: why are some of your former staffers and interns the kind of people who take photos in which they are flashing the same White Power symbol as the New Zealand mass murderer? <a href="https://t.co/cz214DaMJD">pic.twitter.com/cz214DaMJD</a>
— Ari Kohen (@kohenari) <a href="https://twitter.com/kohenari/status/1109118106729881600?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 22, 2019</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

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>.

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.

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 4-chan in 2017.

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.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1819" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-10-18-at-4.16.32-PM.png" alt="" width="500" height="244" />

<a href="https://www.adl.org/blog/how-the-ok-symbol-became-a-popular-trolling-gesture" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Even the left-leaning Anti-Defamation League has declared the campaign a “hoax.</a>” Despite being widely regarded as fake, Dr. Kohen still maintains that anyone who flashes the sign is a “white nationalist.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
If you're a well-known white nationalist, and you do this 👌in a photo, then I think it's a pretty clear sign of your white nationalism.
— Ari Kohen (@kohenari) <a href="https://twitter.com/kohenari/status/858401353080733697?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">April 29, 2017</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

After he was contacted by various media outlets over his comments, Dr. Kohen only proceeded to double down on his accusations. In a series of tweets, he accuses TPUSA and Breitbart News of “weaponizing the internet” over his remarks and again falsely accuses the students of flashing a “white power” sign.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
In an hour or two, I’m going to be attacked by a right-wing mob. It’s source will be Turning Point USA and Breitbart. If you’re interested in seeing how these folks weaponize the internet against college professors, here’s some information:
— Ari Kohen (@kohenari) <a href="https://twitter.com/kohenari/status/1110308087880187911?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">March 25, 2019</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
In the past, Dr. Kohen has repeatedly accused conservatives of harboring white nationalist sentiments and of supporting fascism. In a 2019 post on his personal blog, <a href="https://kohenari.net/post/181589676770#notes" target="_blank" rel="noopener">he refers to conservative supporters of President Donald Trump as a “cancer.”</a>

<img class="size-large wp-image-1820 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-11-18T164917.831-e1637279374636-1024x325.png" alt="" width="580" height="184" />

In the same post, he furthers describes the same conservatives as “proto-fascists”:

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1821" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-11-18T165040.644-e1637279509781-1024x504.png" alt="" width="500" height="246" />

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">
In November, white nationalism is on the ballot. You can vote for it or you can vote against it. I’m going to spend the next 5 months reminding you, every time Trump winks at his Nazi supporters like he did today and the Nebraska Republicans have nothing negative to say about it.
— Ari Kohen (@kohenari) <a href="https://twitter.com/kohenari/status/1263644387394891776?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">May 22, 2020</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
In a separate tweet, Dr. Kohen expressed his disbelief that conservatives would consider a university campus hostile to their political views.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Turns out you shouldn’t believe the hype from right-wing state senators about the University of Nebraska. Conservative students feel just fine here, according to a Gallup poll we had to commission when higher education got politicized here last year: <a href="https://t.co/UWvwAK6LI1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://t.co/UWvwAK6LI1</a>

<a href="https://www.unl.edu/wgs/emily-kazyak" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Emily Kazyak</a> is an Associate Professor for the Women’s &amp; Gender Studies Program at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln. Kazyak’s focus is on Sociology and Women’s &amp; Gender Studies. She teaches a variety of courses, such as WMNS 201: Introduction to LGBTQ/Sexuality Studies, WMNS 301: Sexuality and Power, and SOCI/WMNS 226: Families and Society. 

Kazyak has a <a href="https://www.emilykazyak.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">website</a> that gives an overview of her research, current projects, publications, and more. Her research focuses on law and sexuality, geography and sexuality, and family and sexuality.

One article featured on her website is titled: “<a href="https://www.salon.com/2013/06/01/why_are_there_no_gay_disney_characters_partner/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Why are there no gay Disney characters</a>?” 

“Emily Kazyak found that far from being asexual, Disney films are steeped in sexuality — heterosexuality. According to Martin and Kazyak, the plot of Disney films overwhelmingly revolve around heterosexual romance. Heterosexual love — including, of course, the highly esteemed heterosexual kiss — is presented as “exceptional, powerful, magical and transformative.”

&nbsp;
Professor Kazyak has authored many publications, such as:

<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><a href="https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/23780231211055541" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Pee in Peace” or “Make Everyone Uncomfortable”: Public Perceptions of Transgender Rights:</a> “Moreover, heteronormativity and homophobia are intertwined with gender inequality insofar as masculinity rests on disavowing homosexuality and actively asserting heterosexuality (Pascoe 2007); femininity rests on being what Westbrook and Schilt (2016:384) call a passive tableau on which the achievement... of heterosexuality is enacted… Taken together, these studies demonstrate how transgender people are legible only when they fit within the binary gender system, a system undergirded by homophobia and heteronormativity.”</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><a href="https://digitalcommons.unl.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1164&amp;context=sociologyfacpub" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hetero-Romantic Love and Heterosexiness in Children’s G-Rated Films</a>: “The authors analyze all the G-rated films grossing $100 million dollars or more between 1990 and 2005 and find two main accounts of heterosexuality. First, heterosexuality is constructed through hetero-romantic love relationships as exceptional, powerful, magical, and transformative. Second, heterosexuality outside of relationships is constructed through portrayals of men gazing desirously at women’s bodies. Both of these findings have implications for our understanding of heteronormativity.”</li>
</ul>

<a href="https://cehs.unl.edu/edpsych/faculty/katie-edwards/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Katie Edwards</a> is an Associate Professor of Educational Psychology at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. She also works in the university’s Nebraska Center for Research on Children, Youth, Families, and Schools.

Edwards received $203,050 from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to create a program called the Teen Connection Program that would <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article/nih-funds-program-matching-lgbt-teens-and-adults-for-mentoring-without-parental-consent/24211" target="_blank" rel="noopener">match LGBTQ teenagers with adults</a> for “mentoring”—all without parental consent.

The <a href="https://reporter.nih.gov/search/YTGVSmjRHUeJlUgAHOQcxw/project-details/10649009#details" target="_blank" rel="noopener">grant summary</a> states:
“Minority stress theory states that peer and family rejection and internalized transphobia predict deleterious health outcomes in TGMY, underscoring the urgent need to identify effective programs that prevent psychosocial and behavioral health issues among TGMY [transgender and other gender minority youth].” 
The summary also says a problem with similar programs is they “often require guardian permission; generally occur in person via community organizations which precludes TGMY in high stigma, rural areas of the United States from accessing such programs.”

This grant proposes to “complete feasibility and pilot testing of asynchronous, group-delivered eHealth mentoring and skill-building program.” The program will recruit 140 participants between the ages of 14 and 17. Half of the participants will be placed with a mentor and half will be placed on a waitlist as the control group.

The Teen Connection Project launched during the summer of 2023 and it will run until the end of January 2025.

In a rebuttal to Edwards’ program, Nathanael Blake—an ethicist at the Ethics and Public Policy Center—shared concerns with <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/professor-matches-lgbt-adults-with-teens-for-online-mentoring-without-parent-consent/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The College Fix</a>:
“Deliberately pairing adult strangers with children without parental knowledge, let alone consent, is a bad idea especially because these adult mentors are to be recruited online and are apparently not required to have any special training or skills other than a transgender identity.” 
This is not the only NIH-funded project Edwards is working on. She also received a $771,707 grant in 2023 to study “sexual minority men” and why their peers sexually assault them. Edwards believes one reason for this assault could be “internalized homonegativity.” Therefore, her <a href="https://reporter.nih.gov/project-details/10670426" target="_blank" rel="noopener">grant summary</a> pledges not to focus on just white men:
“To ensure racial, ethnic, and gender diversity in our sample for the purpose of addressing intersectionality we will oversample Black and/or Latinx SM [sexual minority] men as well as trans and transmasculine men.”

Professor Kenneth L. Storey is a former professor of Sociology at the University of Tampa. Professor Storey made headlines after tweeting out a number of hateful tweets indicating that the devastating Hurricane Harvey in Florida was perhaps "karma" for those that voted for President Donald Trump. The full quote reads, "I don't believe in instant Karma but this kinda feels like it for Texas. Hopefully this will help them realize the GOP doesn't care about them." After his Tweets received media attention, Professor Storey was fired by the University of Tampa.

Dr. Allyn Walker is an openly transgender —preferred pronouns they/them—a postdoctoral fellow at the <a href="https://publichealth.jhu.edu/">Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health</a>. In June of 2021, Dr. Walker <a href="https://www.ucpress.edu/book/9780520306363/a-long-dark-shadow">wrote a book titled</a>, A Long, Dark Shadow: Minor-Attracted People and Their Pursuit of Dignity.

<img class="size-full wp-image-1773 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-15-at-11.31.39-AM.png" alt="" width="466" height="222" />

The book, which Dr. Walker describes as interview-based research, discusses non-offending pedophiles (or Minor-Attracted Persons, as Dr. Walker calls them). According to Dr. Walker, the book highlights people who are attracted to minors who don’t don’t commit violent crimes in order to challenge the “widespread assumption that those who are ‘preferentially attracted to minors’ are always predators and sex offenders.” The book details how those who don’t commit violent crimes against children navigate their feelings and attraction to minors.

On November 11, 2021<a href="https://twitter.com/libsoftiktok/status/1458985538334068740?s=21" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> a series of videos on Twitter of Dr. Walker came to light</a>. In these videos, Dr. Walker tries to normalize the term “Minor-Attracted Person” (MAP) and destigmatize pedophilia. In the video, Dr. Walker claims that it is important to call a group by a name in which they want to be called. Dr. Walker states that groups are advocating for MAP as their name because it’s less stigmatized than the term pedophile, and they are doing nothing wrong if they aren’t committing violent crimes against children. Dr. Walker goes on to say that who a person is attracted to (in this case children) isn’t indicative of the morality of that person or that attraction. The video series can be viewed below:

After the video received a significant amount of backlash, <a href="https://www.wtkr.com/news/odu-releases-statement-after-assistant-professor-gives-controversial-interview-defending-people-attracted-to-children">Old Dominion University—Dr. Walker’s employer at the time—released a statement</a>, asserting that, as an academic community, it’s vital to be “willing to consider scientific and other empirical data that may involve controversial issues and perspectives.” They went on to claim that they don’t endorse or promote any crimes against children or any form of criminal activity.

Old Dominion University would later announce that Dr. Allyn Walker would <a href="https://www.odu.edu/news/2021/11/a_statement_from_old_dominion_university#.Yn343qjMI2w">resign at the expiration of his contract</a> in May 2022.

<a href="https://www.jgillpeterson.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jules Gill-Peterson</a> is an Associate Professor of History at <a href="https://www.jhu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Johns Hopkins University</a>. He has referred to the gender binary as “junk science” and advocated for allowing children to transition at any age.

In his substack—<a href="https://sadbrowngirl.substack.com/archive?sort=new" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sad Brown Girl</a>—Peterson attacks conservatives as transphobic, denies there can be only two genders, and documents his life as a transwoman and activist. In one article, titled “The Cis State,” he claims the <a href="https://sadbrowngirl.substack.com/p/the-cis-state" target="_blank" rel="noopener">gender binary never existed historically in the medical community</a>. Rather, politicians and psychologists invented the concept 70 years ago in a nefarious attempt to control people.

“...[S]ex did not become cis until the invention of the concept of gender in the mid-twentieth century. Gender was invented by psychologists to bring order to the collapse of the sex binary in science and medicine.”  

During an interview with Scientific American, <a href="https://www.scientificamerican.com/video/how-junk-science-is-being-used-against-trans-kids2/#Echobox=1649463388" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Peterson claims the idea of a gender binary is still weaponized by present-day scientists against trans people.</a> After being introduced by the host as a “science historian,” he again states that scientists had no idea what determined sex or gender until the mid-20th century.

Further on, Peterson asserts there is no consensus on what determines whether someone is male or female. He then compares any scientific attempts to do so with the “junk science” of the eugenics movement and inflicting harm on trans people.

Peterson often addresses issues surrounding transgender children and berates critics who challenge that children can transition at a young age. On his <a href="https://twitter.com/gp_jls" target="_blank" rel="noopener">personal Twitter account</a>, Peterson urges his followers to “champion” trans children, and even “to want there to be trans kids in the world.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
South Dakota has spent SEVEN YEARS working to pass this anti-trans bill. Trans people have had to organize against it for seven years—and now it passes. Chase is right, everyone needs to champion trans kids in progressive coalition. Kids can’t outrun seven relentless years alone. <a href="https://t.co/UTael9Kkdx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://t.co/UTael9Kkdx</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
I believe more than ever that the way to end a child-hating culture where everyone is invested in children suffering is to learn to want there to be trans kids in this world. To relinquish the wish that we selfishly own them. To greet transness not as hypothetical but valuable. <a href="https://t.co/pMqf4Gx5zK" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://t.co/pMqf4Gx5zK</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

&nbsp;

In a separate thread, he calls for the “abolition” of the family to relieve the “bulwark” of protection that parents provide children.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
an underrated problem in the left’s neoliberal retreat from family abolition (shoutout again to <a href="https://twitter.com/reproutopia?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@reproutopia</a>) is that trans kids are left with a pitifully anemic option for care. the...family? we except the family to ideally care for trans kids? based on what evidence?!

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
I am certainly heartened that many families do love and champion their trans kids. but I also want a political movement that relieves loving trans kids from a privatized, sentimental and normative politics of the family as bulwark against the various ends of the world underway.
— Jules Gill-Peterson (@gp_jls) <a href="https://twitter.com/gp_jls/status/1430222847675359242?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">August 24, 2021</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

&nbsp;

Peterson claims that <a href="https://newrepublic.com/article/163113/behind-gop-strategy-outlaw-trans-youth" target="_blank" rel="noopener">it’s false to “presume” that trans kids will be cared for by their families</a>. His comments appeared in an interview with The New Republic, where he depicted parents as an impediment to trans children. He attacks white women as segregationists who weaponize their status as mothers to fuel anti-trans legislation. “The figure of the mom is hanging over everything,” she states.

In a separate substack article, <a href="https://sadbrowngirl.substack.com/p/we-the-abuser-state" target="_blank" rel="noopener">he further claims that “parental rights” are inhibiting minors from making fully autonomous decisions about their gender</a>.

“The slogan of ‘parental rights” is at the root of the fantasy that children are quasi-property, not people.”

Conservatives who object to transitioning children are <a href="https://thenewinquiry.com/from-gender-critical-to-qanon-anti-trans-politics-and-the-laundering-of-conspiracy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">branded as QAnon-style conspiracy theorists</a> who are aiming to construct an “<a href="https://jewishcurrents.org/the-anti-trans-lobbys-real-agenda" target="_blank" rel="noopener">authoritarian Christian ethnostate.</a>”

Much of this ire is directed toward author Abigail Shrier author of, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Irreversible-Damage-Transgender-Seducing-Daughters/dp/1684510317" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Irreversible Damage.”</a> The book examines the exponential increase in rates of gender dysphoria among teenagers—of which Shrier attributes to <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/06/27/how-peer-contagion-plays-into-the-rise-of-teens-transitioning/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“peer contagion”</a>—and the negative, <a href="https://www.city-journal.org/hormone-treatments-gender-dysphoric-children" target="_blank" rel="noopener">long-term health effects on teens who undergo gender transitions</a>.

Reacting to a Senate testimony delivered by Shrier on trans children, Peterson <a href="https://sadbrowngirl.substack.com/p/abigail-shrier-goes-to-washington" target="_blank" rel="noopener">labels her as a “TERF”</a> (Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminist) who is unqualified to speak on trans issues, in part because Shrier is not transgender herself. She accuses Shrier of flirting with white supremacy and peddling “pedophilic fantasies.”

“I invite you to join me in standing against the extreme sexual harassment, pedophilic fantasies, and torturous sadism of TERF and anti-trans rhetoric peddled by people like Shrier, backed up by an army of internet trolls and well-funded cultural tastemakers getting rich off pretending they are humiliated and canceled.“

Peterson is also the author of “History of the Transgender Child,” which maintains that <a href="https://history.jhu.edu/faculty-books/histories-of-the-transgender-child/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">transgender children have been prevalent and well-documented over the last century</a>. He further serves as the General Editor of <a href="https://www.dukeupress.edu/tsq-transgender-studies-quarterly">Transgender Studies Quarterly</a>, of which the next issue will feature “Trans Marxist” authors and perspectives.

<a href="https://krieger.jhu.edu/africana/directory/shani-mott/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shani Mott</a> is a Lecturer of Africana Studies at Johns Hopkins University (JHU). Her research interests “address how mid-twentieth century writers of both fiction and non-fiction strategically deployed racial language in American popular culture.”

Mott’s university profile also mentions a manuscript titled, “Saving the Soul of the Great Republic: Imagining Race and Writing Democracy.” According to the description, the book “argues that authors writing during the inter- and postwar years of the twentieth century relied on ‘literary racial transvestism,’ a practice wherein black authors wrote novels with predominantly white characters and [vice versa].”

The College Fix said the countersuit mentions a home in the same neighborhood that sold within a month of Mott’s. The same company appraised the home for $7,000 less than the purchase price. Further, Mott and her husband did not provide their appraiser with documentation of any additional estimates showing a higher home value.

On November 6, 2023, the <a href="https://www.cair.com/about_cair/cair-at-a-glance/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Council</a> on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) <a href="https://www.cair.com/press_releases/cair-welcomes-hopkins-faculty-letter-calling-for-ceasefire-in-gaza-encourages-faculty-at-other-institutions-to-call-for-ceasefire/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">published an announcement</a> welcoming a letter signed by 24 <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/school/johnshopkins" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Johns Hopkins</a> faculty members, including Mufti.

The open letter—drafted two weeks after the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack against Israel—starts by acknowledging the loss of life on both sides of the conflict. However, the statement of solidarity with Gaza goes on to state:
“...Palestinians in Gaza are being subjected to a draconian collective punishment. We condemn the horrific ongoing violence inflicted on the Palestinian people, and we urgently call for an end to the Israeli assault on the Gaza Strip. The risk of genocide is real.”

<a href="https://sais.jhu.edu/users/ymounk1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Yascha Mounk</a> is a Professor of Practice of International Affairs at Johns Hopkins University (JHU). Mounk’s faculty profile says he is “a political scientist known for his work on the rise of populism and the crisis of liberal democracy.”

Mounk was outspoken on Twitter after the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack against Israel. Mounk wrote that Israel “has every right to defend itself” but that their response constituted “moral error” when Palestinians become casualties. However, Mounk did not acknowledge <a href="https://stratcomcoe.org/cuploads/pfiles/hamas_human_shields.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hamas’ use of human shields as a war tactic</a>. The militant group often stores its arsenal inside civilian structures (e.g. schools, hospitals, and mosques).
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Hamas murdered over 1,400 people in an indescribably sadistic manner.

Its leaders have made it very clear that they will continue to murder Israeli civilians if given the chance.

Israel has every right to defend itself.

But that is all the more reason for Israel to operate in…

On February 7, 2024, <a href="https://www.thebaltimorebanner.com/education/higher-education/johns-hopkins-professor-rape-allegation-H5NESC5J3FCG7E7CFLQDPVV7R4/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Baltimore Banner</a> featured Mounk in an article titled, “Johns Hopkins University investigates rape allegations against professor.” The Banner writes, “[JHU] has opened an investigation into a prominent international affairs professor after a woman accused him of rape … Hopkins officials said they have referred the matter to the university’s <a href="https://oie.jhu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Office of Institutional Equity</a>.”

According to <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/style/media/2024/02/05/atlantic-yascha-mounk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Washington Post</a>, Mounk said, “I am aware of the horrendous allegations against me. It is categorically untrue.” The Post also referred to <a href="https://libertiesjournal.com/articles/after-rape-a-guide-for-the-tormented/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">an essay</a> published by the victim that said, “When the shrieking stops … you will reach the phase at which all you can think and talk about is the rape.”

JHU has not publicly stated whether Mounk will remain in his faculty position. As of publication, <a href="https://sais.jhu.edu/users/ymounk1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">his profile</a> does not show him on leave from the college.
