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.

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.”

<a href="https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000175-4393-d7aa-af77-579f9b330000"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" 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" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/Screen-Shot-2021-05-24-at-2.59.23-PM.png 574w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/Screen-Shot-2021-05-24-at-2.59.23-PM-226x300.png 226w" sizes="(max-width: 574px) 100vw, 574px" /></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&#8217;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.

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&#8221; 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.

<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.

<a href="https://history.rutgers.edu/people/faculty/details/1143-bray-mark">Mark Bray</a> is a part-time lecturer in the Department of History at Rutgers University.
Bray first gained notoriety in 2017 when he <a href="https://www.mhpbooks.com/books/antifa/">authored</a> &#8220;The Anti-Fascist Handbook,&#8221; and offered to <a href="https://campusreform.org/?id=14972">donate</a> half of the proceeds to ANTIFA.
Bray fully endorses ANTIFA’s embrace of violence as a tactic, and often describes it as “self-defense”. He has <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=9616">stated</a> that in order to “preemptively” shut down far-right events and gatherings,  “physical violence against white supremacists is both ethically justifiable and strategically effective.”
Soon after publication, he appeared on NBC to <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/white-house/antifa-violence-ethical-author-explains-why-n796106">defend</a> the use of force against opposing protestors. He claimed that as an illiberal organization, ANTIFA has and will continue to shut down the free speech of the far right.
Bray recently penned an op-ed in the <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2020/06/01/trump-antifa-terrorist-organization/">Washington Post</a> in the midst of mass-rioting following the death of George Floyd. After expressing sympathy with the looters, Bray claims that police officers are, in fact, deadlier than ANTIFA.  He wrote, “&#8230;and in the United States, ANTIFA have never killed anyone, unlike their enemies in Klan hoods and squad cars.” 
After his views were <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/red-alert-politics/dartmouth-president-disavows-professor-justified-antifa-violence-self-defense">condemned</a> by Dartmouth University &#8211; his employer at the time &#8211; Bray soon began lecturing at Rutgers, where his university biography describes him as a “historian of human rights, terrorism, and politics in Modern Europe.”

<a href="https://sociology.rutgers.edu/faculty/affliliated-graduate-faculty/541-kumar-deepa">Dr. Deepa Kumar</a> is a Professor of Media Studies as well as Middle Eastern Studies at Rutgers University. She argued on Twitter that the U.S. military is worse than ISIS. Kumar wrote on Twitter, "Yes ISIS is brutal, but US is more so, 1.3 million killed in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan."

<a href="http://womens-studies.rutgers.edu/faculty/core-faculty/143-jasbir-puar">Dr. Jasbir Puar</a>, a professor at Rutgers University, was invited to speak at Vassar. Her lecture was titled “Inhumanist Biopolitics: How Palestine Matters.” In her lecture, she accuses Israel of “stunting” growth of Palestinian bodies through scientific experiment as well as harvesting their organs.

<a href="http://www.kevin-allred.com/">Kevin Allred</a> was an adjunct instructor at Rutgers University. He underwent a psych evaluation after a series of questionable and possibly threatening tweets relating to Trump and the Second Amendment. He also went to Twitter after the election to complain that Rutgers had not publicly ensured the safety of students after Trump won. He also teaches a class called "Politicizing Beyonce". He was <a href="https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2016/11/21/rutgers-places-adjunct-leave-tweets-he-says-were-based-rhetoric-president-elect">placed</a> on administrative leave from Rutgers 2016, and <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4750992/Former-Rutgers-professor-fired-tweeting-kill-Trump.html">fired from Montclair State</a> University after threatening to kill Trump.

<a href="https://rcws10.rutgers.edu/faculty/Chikindas/">Professor Michael Chikindas</a>, Rutgers University, posted frequent anti-Semitic comments, at one point referring to Jewish people as “international fat Jewish pockets.” “These jewish [sic] motherf*****s do not control me. They can go f**k each other in their fat a***s - you see, I really do not have anything to loose [sic], hence nothing to be controlled,” he wrote in response to an article titled “The Globalists: Who Control Us!”.

<a href="http://history.rutgers.edu/faculty-directory/174-markowitz-norman">Dr. Norman Markowitz</a> is a Professor of History at Rutgers University. Dr. Markowitz is also an active member of the Communist Party USA since 1978.  He writes and teaches about communism using his “Marxist Perspective.” As a supporter of Obama, Markowitz said that it would be good if Obama’s policies were labeled socialist because it would bring socialism to the forefront and looked at more seriously as a viable option for Americans. He has been a longtime defender of the Communist spies Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, and has said he has “enormous respect” for Howard Zinn, a Marxist historian.

<a href="http://www.polisci.rutgers.edu/cb-profile/userprofile/whfield">Dr. William Field</a>, a professor at Rutgers University, sent out an email to all political science majors and minors to protest against Condoleeza Rice serving as their commencement speaker. He was also said to have congratulated one of the lead organizers of the protest who had damaged university property.

<a href="https://law.rutgers.edu/directory/view/mbk69" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Margo Kaplan</a> is a Professor of Law at <a href="https://law.rutgers.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rutgers University Law School</a> in Camden, New Jersey. According to her university biography, she teaches courses on “Criminal Law, Health Law and Policy, and Sex Crimes” and explores the “legal limitations on intimate decisions.”

Dr. Kaplan has spent her academic career attempting to normalize pedophilia. In a paper for the <a href="https://scholarlycommons.law.wlu.edu/wlulr/vol72/iss1/4/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Washington and Lee Law Review</a>, she advocates for the reclassification of pedophilia as a mental disorder so that pedophiles may be awarded more civil rights:

“...we should not categorically deny pedophilia the civil rights protections afforded to other mental disorders without a convincing normative justification supported by cogent scientific evidence. Strengthening civil rights protections for those with pedophilia also increases access to treatment and support that helps prevent child abuse.”

In a similar piece for the <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/06/opinion/pedophilia-a-disorder-not-a-crime.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York</a><a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/06/opinion/pedophilia-a-disorder-not-a-crime.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Times</a>—titled, "Pedophilia: A Disorder, Not a Crime,"—Dr. Kaplan attempts a sickening effort to lure readers into sympathizing with pedophiles by characterizing pedophiles as adolescents with harmless, childhood crushes.

“THINK back to your first childhood crush. Maybe it was a classmate or a friend next door. Most likely, through school and into adulthood, your affections continued to focus on others in your approximate age group. But imagine if they did not. By some estimates, 1 percent of the male population continues, long after puberty, to find themselves attracted to prepubescent children. These people are living with pedophilia, a sexual attraction to prepubescents that often constitutes a mental illness. Unfortunately, our laws are failing them and, consequently, ignoring opportunities to prevent child abuse.”

Her intellectual sleight of hand is prevalent in both pieces. Kaplan blames the abuse of children partially on what she views as the severity in which society treats pedophilia, resulting in pedophiles abstaining from seeking treatment.

When later interviewed by <a href="https://www.phillymag.com/news/2014/10/06/pedophilia-not-a-crime-rutgers-margo-kaplan/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Philadelphia Magazine</a>, Dr. Kapland claimed to be “shocked” at the amount of support she had received, accusing critics she did have of not even reading her article.

<a href="https://history.rutgers.edu/people/faculty/details/1143-bray-mark">Mark Bray</a> is a part-time lecturer in the Department of History at Rutgers University.

Bray first gained notoriety in 2017 when he <a href="https://www.mhpbooks.com/books/antifa/">authored</a> "The Anti-Fascist Handbook," and offered to <a href="https://campusreform.org/?id=14972">donate</a> half of the proceeds to ANTIFA.

Bray fully endorses ANTIFA’s embrace of violence as a tactic, and often describes it as “self-defense”. He has <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=9616">stated</a> that in order to “preemptively” shut down far-right events and gatherings,  “physical violence against white supremacists is both ethically justifiable and strategically effective.”

Soon after publication, he appeared on NBC to <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/white-house/antifa-violence-ethical-author-explains-why-n796106">defend</a> the use of force against opposing protestors. He claimed that as an illiberal organization, ANTIFA has and will continue to shut down the free speech of the far right.

Bray recently penned an op-ed in the <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2020/06/01/trump-antifa-terrorist-organization/">Washington Post</a> in the midst of mass-rioting following the death of George Floyd. After expressing sympathy with the looters, Bray claims that police officers are, in fact, deadlier than ANTIFA.  He wrote, “...and in the United States, ANTIFA have never killed anyone, unlike their enemies in Klan hoods and squad cars.” 

After his views were <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/red-alert-politics/dartmouth-president-disavows-professor-justified-antifa-violence-self-defense">condemned</a> by Dartmouth University - his employer at the time - Bray soon began lecturing at Rutgers, where his university biography describes him as a “historian of human rights, terrorism, and politics in Modern Europe.”

Much of her research and writing centers around the intersections of race, feminism, and gender. Cooper’s work has led her to develop a number of bizarre opinions:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">While Cooper claims that most American Christians worship a God of “white supremacy and patriarchy,” she chooses to<a href="https://www.salon.com/2015/04/01/the_rights_made_up_god_how_bigots_invented_a_white_supremacist_jesus/"> worship a Jesus that was “queer”</a> and “married to a prostitute."</li>

 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">And obesity in the black community is<a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=13866"> caused by racism</a>.</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Cooper has publicly attacked conservatives on multiple occasions, most recently during a Livestream commentary on the DNC. Before launching into a tirade accusing Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas for “demolishing the civil rights movement,”</li>
</ul>
Cooper explained<a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=15668"> why American exceptionalism is a myth;</a>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-953 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Screen-Shot-2020-11-03-at-3.46.46-PM-1024x447.png" alt="" width="580" height="253" />
Cooper has attributed most of the deaths from the pandemic to racism and conservatives, stating that, “I feel like most Black people are clear that this utterly absurd push to re-open the country is all about a gross necropolitical calculation that it is Black people who are dying disproportionately from COVID,” and <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/rutgers-university-prof-reopening-the-country-is-about-killing-black-people/">blaming Trump supporters for the hundreds of thousands of deaths</a> due to the coronavirus.

Cooper has previously stated that a conservative’s beliefs are “rooted in racism.” In an appearance on MSNBC, <a href="https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/duncan-schroeder/2020/08/30/deranged-msnbc-pundit-goes-hateful-rant-against-trump-voters">Cooper stated that conservatives have a desire for power</a> at the expense of black and brown Americans.

&nbsp;

Cooper has denigrated conservatives throughout her career along racial lines. <a href="https://www.c-span.org/video/?444245-2/eloquent-rage&amp;playEvent">During a speech in Baltimore</a>, she stated that as white men lose their power, they will continue to “terrorize” black men and women. In a previous thread, she stated that the black community is being eaten alive by “capitalism, patriarchy, and racism,” and white people won’t feel any negative consequences of these systems so long as they can continue to displace white people through systems like gentrification.

Ms. <a href="https://crimjust.rutgers.edu/people/faculty-directory/details/30-faculty/faculty/620-erakat-noura">Noura Erakat</a> is an Assistant Professor of Africana Studies at Rutgers University. According to her university profile, Professor Erakat specializes in fields that include international law, humanitarian law, human rights law, national security law, refugee law, and critical race theory. A harsh critic of the state of Israel, the professor has repeatedly demonized and called for the destruction of the only Jewish state in the world.

Professor Erakat’s work frequently characterizes Israel as a racist state that is equivalent to the apartheid-era South African government. In a November 2019 interview with DemocracyNow, she stated, ”<a href="https://www.democracynow.org/2019/11/19/noura_erakat_israeli_settlements_trump_announcement">we are witnessing the entrenchment of an apartheid regime</a>, and the U.S. [is] at the helm of that process.”

Professor Erakat repeats this false claim to justify her support of the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement. In a November 2020 video panel discussion with the Middle East Institute, Professor Erakat calls on the world <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7S7ZkKMFUuU&amp;t=3956s">to resist and alienate Israel via adherence to a BDS platform</a>.

[video width="1280" height="720" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-Adhere-to-a-BDS-Platform.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

BDS—short for Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions—supporters embrace 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.

Mr. Omar Barghouti, a co-founder of the BDS movement, admits that the ultimate outcome of these steps is the <a href="https://twitter.com/StandWithUs/status/1267561561565958144">dismantlement of the state of Israel</a>.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

&nbsp;

Professor Erakat likewise calls for Israel to be destroyed and replaced by an Arab-majority Palestinian state. As reported by The Spectator in July 2019, Ms. Erakat spoke at an event in Washington, DC, where she <a href="https://spectator.org/noura-erakat-recounts-her-anxiety-over-israels-existence/">advocated for Arabs to “help indigenize” Jews in Israel </a>in order to achieve a sole Palestinian state or a “one-state solution.”

Professor Erakat is far more brazen in calling for the outright destruction of Israel when speaking at anti-Israel protests around the country. During one march in May 2021—captured by News2Share—she called for the <a href="https://twitter.com/FordFischer/status/1393739882825195521/">liberation of Palestine, “from the river to the sea.</a>”

[video width="1280" height="720" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-From-the-River-to-the-Sea-.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

According to the Israeli newspaper Arutz Sheva, the chant, “from the river to the sea,” was <a href="https://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/291203">popularized by terrorist groups such as the Palestinian Liberation Organization</a> (PLO). The phrase alludes to the destruction of Israel—and thus the genocide of the nation’s Jews—between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea. <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/1948/08/02/archives/aim-to-oust-jews-pledged-by-sheikh-head-of-moslem-brotherhood-says.html">The chant is thought to originate from the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hassan el-Banna</a>, who was qouted by The New York Times stating, "If the Jewish state becomes a fact, and this is realized by the Arab peoples, they will drive the Jews who live in their midst into the sea."

Even though Professor Erakat can be heard calling for the “denuclearization of Israel” in the same speech, she had in 2013 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I20HOx5zfv0&amp;ab_channel=JFhsfohhMN">condemned efforts to dismantle Iran’s nuclear program as “racist</a>.”

&nbsp;

She further <a href="https://www.instagram.com/tv/CMzhsZtBfgg/?igshid=5p918cganhq1">defended this position</a> in a video uploaded to her Instagram in March of 2021, arguing there is no contradiction in opposing sanctions for Iran while supporting sanctions on Israel.

[video width="960" height="540" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat-Instagram-Edited-.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

During a separate march in May of 2021,  Ms. Erakat can be heard chanting “By spirit and by blood, we redeem you, Palestine!” in front of the Israeli Embassy.

&nbsp;

[video width="854" height="480" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Noura-Erakat.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

In April of 2020, Noura Erakat’s cousin, Mr. Ahmed Erakat, was killed after <a href="https://www.algemeiner.com/2020/06/29/palestinian-rams-a-checkpoint-death-lies-and-videotape/">ramming his car into an Israeli checkpoint during a failed terrorist attack</a>. Despite the publication of footage verifying the incident and a pipe bomb later being found in the van by investigators, Ms. Erakat continues to claim that he was murdered by Israeli forces.

Dr. James Livingston is <a href="https://history.rutgers.edu/faculty-directory/172-livingston-james" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a tenured Professor of History</a> at Rutgers University. His specialty is listed as Modern US: Intellectual and Economic History. He considers himself an “economic historian” and professionally writes many publications about politics, economics, and working in the United States.

In his personal time, Dr. Livingston often takes to Facebook to discuss similar topics, but in a less professional manner. <a href="https://pen.org/press-clip/white-professor-accused-of-antiwhite-racism/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In a Facebook post from May 31, 2018</a>, Dr. Livingston denounces the white race and belligerently asserts he “hates white people.” Later in the post, he calls white Americans “little caucasian assholes who know their parents will approve of anything they do” and “little shitheads.”

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1630" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Screen-Shot-2021-10-05-at-2.29.30-PM.png" alt="" width="557" height="322" />

&nbsp;

When Facebook flagged the post and took it down, rather than apologize for his racist rant, he posted the following:

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1631" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Screen-Shot-2021-10-05-at-2.30.14-PM.png" alt="" width="604" height="188" />

&nbsp;

Shortly after his anti-white tirade, Rutgers launched an investigation into his posts. The university stated that they received several anonymous complaints about the posts, calling them to take action against the Professor. Dr. Livingston claimed he was making a statement about gentrification and told university officials that white supremacists were sending him threatening messages.

The investigation was headed by Carolyn Dellatore, the associate director of the Office of Employment Equity. <a href="https://www.thefire.org/rutgers-investigation-report/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Her investigation found that</a> “given Professor Livingston’s insistence on making disparaging racial comments, a reasonable student may have concerns that he or she would be stigmatized in his classes because of his or her race. As such, Professor Livingston’s comments have violated university policy.” He argued, however, that his posts were not racist because white people cannot be discriminated against. He also argued that the first amendment gave him the right to freedom of speech.

The university initially decided to sanction Dr. Livingston, but they <a href="https://www.northjersey.com/story/news/2018/11/15/no-punishment-rutgers-university-professor-over-white-people-comments-facebook/2016377002/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ultimately reversed their decision</a> in November 2018, clearing him of all charges. Dr. Livingston is still teaching at Rutgers University today.

<a href="https://comminfo.rutgers.edu/kumanyika-chenjerai">Dr. Chenjerai Kumanyika</a> is an Assistant Professor at Rutgers University. Dr. Kumanyika traveled to Ferguson, MO multiple times to protest the non-indictment of the white police officer who shot Michael Brown. He was also a signatory on a letter supporting the demands from the Coalition of Concerned Students who believe in prosecuting what they call “predatory behaviors and defamatory speech,” even from social media sources. The letter also calls for building a new multi-cultural center, more support for “underrepresented groups,” increasing the number of minority faculty members, and for Clemson employees to go through diversity training. Chenjerai also orchestrated a campaign against a student senate candidate and accused a candidate of racism for posing with a gun and American flag for his campaign poster.

He is designated as a Distinguished Professor with research interests in infectious diseases such as HIV, HPV, and COVID-19.

Halkitis is the founder and director of the Center for Health, Identity, Behavior and Prevention Studies (CHIBPS). CHIBPS is not a medical clinic but is “an interdisciplinary research center within the Rutgers School of Public Health. <a href="https://sph.rutgers.edu/centers/chibps/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The center’s website</a> says the organization is “nationally recognized for the study of LGBTQ health with a focus on the disparities of infectious diseases including HIV, substance use, and mental health burden.”  

In March 2022, CHIBPS offered a survey and raffle for anyone willing to participate in their research into LGBTQ communities’ vaccination experiences.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Halkitis put #EthicalDisruptor in his Twitter profile and uses his page to bring awareness to LGBTQ community issues. In a video pinned by Halkitis, a host of New Jersey Power and Politics interviewed him regarding the Colorado Springs <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/grotesque-politicization-colorado-springs-gay-bar-shooting-opinion-1761129" target="_blank" rel="noopener">gay night club shooting</a>.  

Halkitis was asked how he thought rhetoric from political figures enabled people like the shooter to commit hate crimes. Halkitis, who believes microaggressions are a public health issue, stated:

“We’ve been seeing over the course of the last four to five years a steady increase in hate crimes…[We need to] think about how our work in public health has to be responsible enough to call out that rhetoric — whether it be macro aggressions…or the microaggressions that marginalize people on a daily basis.”

Halkitis also said the fact that the club shooter identifies as “nonbinary” is not a factor because “LGBTQ people are raised in a society that also embeds us with trans-homophobia…and many of us internalize it.”

Fair was the subject of a <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7dAQe1s5ZVka3hXLURodG1WQkU/view">complaint</a> filed by a colleague for “harassment, abuse, hate, and cyberbullying.”  After <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4069936/Georgetown-prof-C-Christine-Fair-went-meltdown-Muslim-ex-colleague-Asra-Q-Nomani-admitted-voting-Donald-Trump.html">Asra Nomani</a>, who is Muslim, said she voted for Trump because of her problems with Obamacare, Fair went on a month-long rant against Nomani, including calling her various insulting names in her native Urdu, claiming Nomani had “pimped” herself out, as well as saying "F*** you".

Fair is also known for her vulgar and carnal tweets directed at conservatives. During the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh in the fall of 2018, Fair <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=11369">launched</a> into a racially tinged tirade on her <a href="https://twitter.com/CChristineFair?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor">Twitter</a> account, accusing Republicans of enabling a rapist and calling for their castration in a series of tweets,

Dyson has<a href="https://www.wglt.org/post/dyson-isu-white-supremacy-sees-resurgence-under-trump-0#stream/0"> alleged</a> that there has been a “resurgence” of white supremacy under a conservative presidency.

Dyson continued,

“Words matter, symbols matter too. Why don’t we wear a swastika for July Fourth? Because I don’t know, it makes a difference.”

Dyson is also associated with the notorious anti-Semite and Nation of Islam leader, Louis Farrakhan. In 2010, Dyson<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ULAThBZKiM"> participated</a> in a roundtable discussion hosted by PBS with Farrakhan and<a href="http://www.finalcall.com/artman/publish/Minister_Louis_Farrakhan_9/article_7248.shtml"> interviewed</a> him the same year about the economic condition of black communities.

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

Mr. Ruebner alleges that terrorist attacks committed against America are directly linked to ties with Israel. In a December 2002 article titled <a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2002/12/10/striking-with-impunity/">Striking with Impunity</a>, he states that America is guilty of war crimes for providing military aid to Israel—claiming Israel uses this equipment to commit human rights abuses. Mr. Ruebner asks the readers in the same article, how many more “towers need to fall?”—in reference to the horrific September 11th terrorist attacks—before America stops supporting Israel.

Updated - June, 2021

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

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

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

Since the FDA approved the pills, there have been 24 reported maternal deaths and over 4,000 reports of adverse events including hemorrhage, excruciating abdominal pain, and severe life-threatening infections.

Rebouché and her co-authors ignore these statistics and claim, with the fall of Roe v. Wade, the “anti-abortion movement is likely to continue to deploy another longstanding tactic: deceiving people.” They say crisis pregnancy centers “often imply that they provide abortions when their mission is actually to block people from getting abortions.”
“Expect anti-abortion activists to set up websites pretending to sell abortion pills or even selling fake abortion pills.” 
Lastly, Rebouché et al. advocate for social media companies and search companies like Google to treat abortion pill misinformation like Covid-19 misinformation. They write:
“These companies created policies that have tried to de-emphasize, remove or add disclaimers to Covid-19 misinformation. Given the immense complexity of the post-Roe legal and abortion access landscape, companies could enact similar policies governing abortion misinformation and websites that aim to deceive and entrap pregnant people.”

Among the required reading, Dr. Mellis assigns the article, “<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210202122324/https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/12/opinion/why-women-had-better-sex-under-socialism.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Why Women Had Better Sex Under Socialism</a>.” Published in the New York Times in 2017, the piece argues that women enjoyed sexual equality and more rights under Communism than their counterparts in Western nations.
Under the section, “Online Course Expectations,” Dr. Mellis addresses each student who is, “experiencing the pandemic and the anti-racist uprisings.” She is referring to the then-ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and Black Lives Matter (BLM) riots occurring throughout the summer and fall months of 2020 as the course was conducted.

According to a <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">study conducted by the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED)</a>, BLM can be linked to 95% of the riots around the country–notably in Summer 2020 following the death of George Floyd. In an analysis of the study, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Federalist</a> found, “of the 633 incidents coded as riots, 88 percent are recorded as involving Black Lives Matter Activists.” The resulting riots were the largest in American history, <a href="https://fee.org/articles/george-floyd-riots-caused-record-setting-2-billion-in-damage-new-report-says-here-s-why-the-true-cost-is-even-higher/#:~:text=Only%20now%20are%20we%20beginning,%241%20billion%20to%20%242%20billion." target="_blank" rel="noopener">causing an estimated $2 billion in damages and 47 deaths.</a>
Dr. Mellis had voiced support for the riots, tweeting the “racial uprisings” were “much needed” and “heartening.”

In one section of the syllabus, titled “Inclusion Statement,” Dr. Mellis writes that she strives to create a classroom where everyone feels “safe and valued” and asks each student to “show respect to others.” Continuing, she states, “Viewpoints that oppress others—specifically those that reinforce white supremacist culture—will not be tolerated.&#8221;

She previously expressed her intent to censor certain discussions in the classroom in order to prevent certain ideas from “contributing to the historical oppression” of her students. <a href="https://twitter.com/JohannaMellis/status/1344481217962418176"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-1741" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-09-30-at-2.35.13-PM-e1636497242814.png" alt="" width="450" height="235" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-09-30-at-2.35.13-PM-e1636497242814.png 454w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-09-30-at-2.35.13-PM-e1636497242814-300x157.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px" /></a>

In an analysis of the study, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Federalist</a> found, “of the 633 incidents coded as riots, 88 percent are recorded as involving Black Lives Matter Activists.” The resulting riots were the largest in American history, <a href="https://fee.org/articles/george-floyd-riots-caused-record-setting-2-billion-in-damage-new-report-says-here-s-why-the-true-cost-is-even-higher/#:~:text=Only%20now%20are%20we%20beginning,%241%20billion%20to%20%242%20billion." target="_blank" rel="noopener">causing an estimated $2 billion in damages and 47 deaths.</a>

Dr. Mellis had voiced support for the riots, tweeting the “racial uprisings” were “much needed” and “heartening.”

In one section of the syllabus, titled “Inclusion Statement,” Dr. Mellis writes that she strives to create a classroom where everyone feels “safe and valued” and asks each student to “show respect to others.” Continuing, she states, “Viewpoints that oppress others—specifically those that reinforce white supremacist culture—will not be tolerated."

She previously expressed her intent to censor certain discussions in the classroom in order to prevent certain ideas from “contributing to the historical oppression” of her students. <a href="https://twitter.com/JohannaMellis/status/1344481217962418176"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-1741" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-09-30-at-2.35.13-PM-e1636497242814.png" alt="" width="450" height="235" /></a>

<a href="https://www.depts.ttu.edu/biology/people/Faculty/Schwilk/">Dr. Dylan Schwilk</a> is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at Texas Tech. Citing rising COVID cases, Dr. Schwilk asked his class to segregate based on whether or not they wear masks in his classroom. 

The controversy occurred just prior to the first week of the spring semester classes in 2022. In his introductory email to the class—provided to TPUSA’s Professor Watchlist by an anonymous source—Dr. Schwilk announces new COVID restrictions that will be implemented the following day; students without masks will be asked to sit on opposite sides of the room from those who wear them. 

“I expect students will wear masks to protect others and themselves. Those students who refuse to wear masks will be asked to sit on the right hand side of the lecture hall (as you face the podium and screens) so that there is more separation from those wearing masks.”

Speaking to the Professor Watchlist, then-Turning Point USA chapter Vice-President, Morgonn McMichael said this is the first time that she’s encountered any restrictions. She reports that most students do not wear masks and is puzzled at Dr. Schwilk’s response.  She there are no serious problems with COVID outbreaks at Texas Tech. 

McMichael provided the following statement to the Professor Watchlist:

“As a student at texas tech [SIC] and seeing there not be a mandate I was thrilled but now seeing this professor, in particular, take it upon himself to blatantly segregate his class is discriminatory to all students, there are students in his class who will comply fearing for their grade, help in the class or gaining resources to do well. I am sickened by this professor's actions in going against the university policy! Professors like this need to be held accountable!”

Dr. Peters advocates for more LGBTQ representation in the academic community. In a talk with Tulane University’s Master’s of Science in Bioethics and Humanities program, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLPf5BpqjII" target="_blank" rel="noopener">he describes the current state of representation in academia as tokenism.</a> His lecture defines tokenism as diversity without meaningful inclusion. He believes that LGBTQ individuals feel that they must assimilate to succeed and that there’s a dominant narrative of heterosexuality and a gender binary throughout medical school. He believes that true inclusion doesn’t just increase the number of LGBTQ individuals but changes the overall culture of the organization.

Daniel F. Liefwalker is a<a href="https://ohsu.pure.elsevier.com/en/persons/daniel-liefwalker" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> research assistant professor</a> at Oregon Health &amp; Science University. His areas of interest include molecular and medical genetics. He has penned a few publications related to DNA and genetic coding.

When he isn’t teaching or in the lab researching genetics, he can be found rioting with ANTIFA. In August of 2020, Liefwalker was <a href="https://rosterhome.blogspot.com/2020/08/daniel-leafwalker-arrested-in-multnomah.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">arrested around 3am</a> for trespassing in Portland, which is a class C misdemeanor. He was arrested alongside 23 other ANTIFA rioters. The “protest” turned violent when a man was spotted trying to light the city hall building on fire, and other ANTIFA rioters were throwing items at police officers. He was released on his own recognizance, and additional information regarding the court case is not currently available.

As reported by <a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/dhs-leaked-email-confirms-that-antifa-is-an-organized-group" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Post-Millennial</a>, leaked emails from the Department of Homeland Security show that law enforcement agencies identify ANTIFA as an organization that engages in “organized” rather than sporadic violence. Many<a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/guns-knives-and-other-weapons-confiscated-from-suspects-at-portland-antifa-riot/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> members arm themselves with knives and firearms</a> to violently confront conservatives at events. In the Summer of 2021,<a href="https://thepostmillennial.com/us-attorneys-office-in-dc-refuses-to-investigate-attack-on-rand-paul/"> members of ANTIFA attacked Senator Rand Paul</a> and his wife as they walked through Washington D.C.

<a href="https://dailycaller.com/2020/07/30/24-people-killed-george-floyd-riots-protests/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">According to The Daily Caller</a>, at least 24 people died during ANTIFA riots in the two-month span after George Floyd’s death. Countless others were injured during these riots as well.

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1791" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Screen-Shot-2021-11-17-at-12.50.30-PM.png" alt="" width="451" height="293" />

The arrest in August 2020 was not Liefwalker’s first run-in with the law, however. According to <a href="https://twitter.com/MrAndyNgo/status/1297744227384737792" target="_blank" rel="noopener">American conservative journalist Andy Ngo</a>, Liefwalker was arrested in 2008 at Oregon State University for “drunken, belligerent, and aggressive behavior.”

Oregon Health &amp; Science University has remained silent in regards to Liefwalker’s ANTIFA-related arrest. As of Fall 2021, he is still teaching at the university.

<a href="https://www.ohsu.edu/providers/blair-peters-md" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Blair Peters</a> is an Assistant Professor of Surgery in the Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at the Oregon Health &amp; Science University School of Medicine.

Dr. Peters — who states his pronouns as he/they — advocates for gender-affirming care in medicine. He was one of the first two fellows in gender-affirming surgery at the Oregon Health &amp; Science University (OHSU) and is supportive of increased emphasis on LGBTQ and transgender care in the medical community.

In an April 2022 tweet, Dr. Peters announced that he had <a href="https://twitter.com/queersurgeon/status/1511866232802189312?s=11&amp;t=rtPkuHLvqcV2XMWHog1VrQ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">performed mastectomies on 3 young adults and adolescents</a>. A gender-affirming mastectomy (also known as top surgery) is when a female’s breasts are removed to create a masculine-appearing chest.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
I performed gender affirming mastectomies (top surgeries) for 3 young adults and adolescents today.
All had supportive parents present. You could see the family relief the second we wheeled back to the OR.

I could sense the shift.

“We made it. We have a chance.”

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Dr. Peters opposes any restrictions on top surgeries performed on teenagers suffering from gender dysphoria. In a video posted on his <a href="https://www.instagram.com/queersurgeon/">personal Instagram account</a>, Dr. Peters criticizes bills that prohibit doctors from performing elective mastectomies on children under 18.

Dr. Peters advocates for more LGBTQ representation in the academic community.

He believes that LGBTQ individuals feel that they must assimilate to succeed and that there’s a dominant narrative of heterosexuality and a gender binary throughout medical school. He believes that true inclusion doesn’t just increase the number of LGBTQ individuals but changes the overall culture of the organization.

While arguing with the counter-protesters, Canin tripped over a bike rack; the college republicans began to laugh at him. An enraged Canin lunged at the laughing students and <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2017/02/08/college-republican-makes-citizen-arrest-fullerton-professor-assaults-student/">ripped</a> a protest sign out of the hands of College Republican, Bryce Ignalls. Canin <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=8763">allegedly struck </a>Ingalls in the face and caused him to fall to the ground. Breitbart also reported that the Fullerton College Republicans President, Christopher Boyle, had to <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2017/02/08/college-republican-makes-citizen-arrest-fullerton-professor-assaults-student/">physically restrain</a> Canin until the police arrived.
In a statement regarding the assault, the University Chief Communications Officer, Jefferey Cook, <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2017/feb/9/eric-canin-cal-state-lecturer-accused-of-hitting-c/">condemned</a> Canin on Twitter stating, “#CSUF prizes and promotes free and open expression. Any violent incident, however, cannot be tolerated and is unacceptable.” After an internal investigation led by the University of Fullerton <a href="https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2017/07/19/cal-state-fullerton-reinstates-lecturer-after-arbitrator-finds-no-evidence-most">determining</a> that Bryce was physically struck, Canin was terminated.
Canin appealed the decision, and Jan Stiglitz was <a href="https://dailytitan.com/news/campus/lecturer-eric-canin-to-return-to-csuf-following-investigation-into-misconduct/article_59b55b35-3dcc-5f9f-bce0-97cf4c678dd5.html">assigned</a> as a legal arbitrator to the dispute. In Canin’s defense, the CA Faculty Association alleged that Canin was in fact the “victim” of harassment by the College Republicans.
Stiglitz <a href="https://dailytitan.com/news/campus/lecturer-eric-canin-to-return-to-csuf-following-investigation-into-misconduct/article_59b55b35-3dcc-5f9f-bce0-97cf4c678dd5.html">determined</a> that Canin did not represent the University of Fullerton by announcing himself to be a professor before assaulting Ingalls. Stiglitz recommended that the University of Fullerton reinstate Canin with a 2-month suspension. Upon accepting her recommendation, Canin returned to the University where he still teaches today.

Canin appealed the decision, and Jan Stiglitz was <a href="https://dailytitan.com/news/campus/lecturer-eric-canin-to-return-to-csuf-following-investigation-into-misconduct/article_59b55b35-3dcc-5f9f-bce0-97cf4c678dd5.html">assigned</a> as a legal arbitrator to the dispute.

Stiglitz <a href="https://dailytitan.com/news/campus/lecturer-eric-canin-to-return-to-csuf-following-investigation-into-misconduct/article_59b55b35-3dcc-5f9f-bce0-97cf4c678dd5.html">determined</a> that Canin did not represent the University of Fullerton by announcing himself to be a professor before assaulting Ingalls. Stiglitz recommended that the University of Fullerton reinstate Canin with a 2-month suspension. Upon accepting her recommendation, Canin returned to the University where he still teaches today.

<a href="https://gca.columbia.edu/people/flores-forbes" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mr. Flores Forbes</a> is an Associate Vice President for Community Affairs at Columbia University. Mr. Flores is a convicted murderer who served as Huey Newton’s enforcer in the Black Panther Party.
The organization was<a href="https://www.history.com/topics/civil-rights-movement/black-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> formed by black nationalists, Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale, in 1966 as the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense.</a> The group’s early activities included monitoring police and social programs for urban communities.
<a href="http://web.stanford.edu/~ccarson/articles/am_left.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The party was explicitly organized along</a> Marxist-Leninist lines. Members were <a href="https://archives.frontpagemag.com/fpm/reflections-panthers-john-perazzo/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">required to read communist texts such as Mao Zedong’s, Red Book and Che Guevara</a>. Bobby Seale was known to <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/whitewashing-the-black-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fondly quote Soviet Dictator, Joseph Stalin</a>.
Despite their alleged philanthropy, the Panthers used their community programs–dubbed survival programs—as a front for criminal activity. David Horowitz—who worked for the Panthers at the time—observed the Panthers&#8217; <a href="https://archives.frontpagemag.com/fpm/pbs-propaganda-machine-black-panther-killers-frontpagemagcom/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">embezzling and illegal trafficking operations based out of the Oakland Community Center.</a>
The Panthers were feared for their mob-like enforcement and brutality. Members were <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/whitewashing-the-black-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">known to pour boiling water over suspected </a>police informants and fire-bomb the cars of journalists. Co-founder, Huey Newton, was convicted—which was later overturned by an appellate court—and spent time in prison for the murder of police officer, John Frey. He is further <a href="https://www.salon.com/1999/12/13/betty/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">suspected to have taken part in multiple murders</a> committed by the Panthers.
Known as Newton’s “internal enforcer”, Mr. Forbes carried out at least one execution on behalf of his boss. <a href="https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/2020/12/radical-son-frontpagemagcom/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Flores was ordered to perform a hit against Crystal Gray</a>, who had witnessed Newton murder a prostitute—Kathleen Smith—and was set to testify in his trial.
However, Mr. Forbes and the other assassins mistakenly arrived at the address of a fellow Panther, who returned fire and injured Mr. Forbes before he was killed. Following a nationwide manhunt, Mr. Forbes turned himself in, where he was convicted and spent 5 years in prison for second-degree murder.
Mr. Forbes is also suspected in the murder of Betty Van Patter. As a book-maker for the Panthers, Patter <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20160110093526/http://www.insidebayarea.com/ci_5016589" target="_blank" rel="noopener">was a first-hand witness to the organization’s criminal activity and threatened to expose the Panthers to the press</a>. After missing for five weeks, her body was recovered in the San Francisco Bay.
Although Mr. Forbes is believed by Patter’s daughter and the <a href="https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/2020/12/radical-son-frontpagemagcom/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">FBI to be responsible for her killing</a>, no arrests were made. Furthermore, the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20180330211353/http://fbidocs.com/betty-van-patter" target="_blank" rel="noopener">FBI destroyed all files relating to Patter in 2009</a>, so the apparent murder will remain unsolved. The Black Panther party dissolved in 1984 and Huey Newton was murdered in 1989. Mr. Forbes went on to author a book about his time in the Panthers—titled, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Will-You-Die-Me-Panther/dp/0743482689" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Will You Die with Me?</a>— and <a href="https://news.columbia.edu/news/cu-people-flores-forbes-urban-planner" target="_blank" rel="noopener">has worked at Columbia since 2007</a>.

Columbia University

<a href="https://journalism.columbia.edu/faculty/dale-maharidge">Dale Maharidge</a> is a Journalism Professor at Columbia University who ironically does not take well to criticism. After finding out he was under investigation on Project Veritas' "To Catch A Journalist" he reacted with a series of explicit and sophomoric rants on social media.

<a href="http://socialwork.columbia.edu/faculty/adjunct/kathy-boudin/">Dr. Kathy Boudin</a> teaches social work classes at Columbia University, despite having a lengthy criminal record. Boudin, a convicted murderer and a member of Bill Ayers' domestic terrorism group the Weather Underground, had no problem finding a job teaching at Columbia. According to The Daily Beast "In 1984, Boudin, a member of the Weather Underground, a violent, oafish association of upper-class “revolutionaries,” pled guilty to second-degree murder in association with the infamous 1981 Brinks armored car robbery in Nyack, New York. Babbling in the language of anti-racism and anti-imperialism, Boudin assisted in ending the life of three people, including Waverly Brown, the first black police officer on the Nyack police force, and left nine children fatherless. She was sentenced to 20 years to life in prison. In 2003, Boudin was released; by 2008 she had landed a coveted teaching position at an Ivy League university."

<a href="http://www.law.columbia.edu/faculty/kayum-ahmed">Professor Kayum Ahmed</a>, Columbia University Law School, filed a “discrimination and harassment complaint” against the College Republicans after they invited Tommy Robinson to speak on campus, arguing that the invitation itself was an “act of violence” against him.

<a href="https://www.northeastern.edu/law/faculty/directory/williams-p.html">Patricia Williams </a>is a Professor of Law and Humanities at Northeastern University. Williams, in an editorial for The Nation, wrote " the history of the right to bear arms is shaped by exclusionary privilege based on race and gender. It is almost exclusively white men who may “reasonably” carry firearms to protests outside Target or political conventions", although still 20% of Hispanic and African-American homes own guns according to Pew research.

<a href="https://history.columbia.edu/faculty/khalidi-rashid/">Dr. Rashid Khalidi</a>, a Professor of Modern Arab Studies at Columbia University, laced criticism of Trump's foreign policy with Anti-Semitism. Discussing Trump's position on Israel, Khalidi said "They have a vision whereby there is no such thing as the Palestinians. They have a vision whereby international law doesn’t exist. They have a vision whereby the United States can unilaterally cancel a decision of the United Nations. And unfortunately, these people infest the Trump transition team, these people are going to infest our government as of January 20th. And they are hand in glove with a similar group of people in the Israeli government and in Israeli political life who think that whatever they think can be imposed on reality."

<a href="https://palestine.mei.columbia.edu/people/hamid-dabashi">Hamid Dabashi</a> is the Hagop Kevorkian Professor of Iranian Studies and Comparative Literature at Columbia University. 

As a board member of the U.S. Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel, Dabashi is ferociously <a href="https://canarymission.org/professor/Hamid_Dabashi">anti-Israel</a>, going so far as <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2005/01/18/education/mideast-tensions-are-getting-personal-on-campus-at-columbia.html">cancelling classes</a> so that his students can attend anti-Israel rallies.

When Iranian dictator Mahmoud Ahmadinejad spoke at Columbia, Dabashi was one of his most vocal defenders against fellow professors. <a href="https://www.nysun.com/new-york/columbia-professor-calls-bollinger-white/">Writing</a> for an Egyptian newspaper, Dabashi accused Ahmadinejad’s critics of racism, claiming “the most ridiculous clichés of the neocon propaganda machinery, wrapped in the missionary position of a white racist supremacist carrying the heavy burden of civilizing the world.”

In 2018, Dabashi received criticism for a now-deleted <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=10484">Facebook post</a> in which he accused the Women’s March of being “deeply infiltrated” by “Zionists”, who want to hijack the organization to benefit Israel.

“The Woman’s (sic) March has now emerged as a major movement in the US and of course the Zionists have deeply infiltrated it the way they infiltrated the Civil rights Movement of the 1960s and sought to twist it to the advantage of Israel,”

<a href="https://polisci.columbia.edu/content/jeffrey-r-lax">Jeffery Lax</a> is a professor of Political Science at Columbia University. He also serves as Deputy Chair of Columbia's Political Science Department.

<a href="https://campusreform.org/?id=14870">In an online dispute</a> over the President of the United States, Lax publicly accosted a Columbia student online. After accusing the President of murdering Americans, Lax then attacked Gabriel Montalvo, a conservative, referring to him as “stupid” and “evil,” in posts provided by Montalvo on his <a href="https://twitter.com/Baron_Montalvo/status/1247164493748146178">twitter account</a>.

Further on, he referred to Montalvo, who is Hispanic, as a “neo-nazi” after telling him to “drop dead”. Lax called Montalvo a neo-Nazi multiple times in the exchange and even insinuated that he brandishes a swastika.

<a href="https://directory.columbia.edu/people/uni?code=jbc2167">James Comey</a>–the former FBI director best known for directing the Russia investigation against President Trump– is now a lecturer at Columbia University <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/12/02/ex-fbi-director-james-comey-to-teach-at-columbia-law-school/">for the Spring 2021 semester</a>. Comey’s course is titled “Lawyers and Leaders.”  The <a href="https://reuben-mark.law.columbia.edu/content/reuben-mark-initiative-announces-spring-2021-leaders-residence">university’s website</a> writes that Comey’s experiences as a federal prosecutor and FBI director “represents a broadening of the Mark Initiative’s focus to include leadership of major public institutions, complementing existing offerings relating to corporations and law firms.”

In 2016 under Comey’s leadership, the FBI opened an investigation to determine whether the Trump campaign had colluded with the Russian government to defeat his opposing  Presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton. It is important to note that Special Counsel Robert Muller <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/no-collusion-attorney-general-william-barr-emily-zanotti">later determined that there was no evidence against President Trump.</a>

Much of the underlying information that formed the basis of the investigation was provided by a former-British spy, Christopher Steele– known as the “Steele Dossier.” <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/09/steeles-dossier-source-was-a-suspected-russian-spy/">Steele relied on a series of rumors from a sole source that was later determined to be a suspected Russian spy</a>. Members of Comey’s own <a href="https://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/442944-fbis-steele-story-falls-apart-false-intel-and-media-contacts-were-flagged">FBI flagged the allegations in the dossier as false and were</a> ignored. This information was eventually used to obtain surveillance warrants for individuals involved with the Trump campaign. Despite being fired by the FBI for misconduct, <a href="https://thehill.com/hilltv/rising/400810-opinion-how-a-senior-justice-official-helped-dems-on-trump-russia-case">Steele was still used as a source–with Bruce Ohr serving as his conduit to ferry information to the Bureau</a>.

Once Trump assumed office, <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/05/11/why-did-obama-tell-the-fbi-to-hide-its-activities-from-the-trump-administration/">Comey withheld evidence from the Trump Administration</a> about his investigation. The FBI had briefed President Trump’s campaign regarding Russian interference into the election, but failed to disclose that members of the campaign were the subject of the investigation itself.

Comey played a pivotal role in the perjury trap that resulted in the firing and prosecution of General Michael Flynn. Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates testified that <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/08/05/sally-yates-comey-went-rogue-in-launching-perjury-trap-on-flynn/">Comey “went rogue” in his pursuit to prosecute Flynn</a>. Sources claim that the <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/fbi-official-on-mueller-team-says-flynn-prosecution-was-used-to-get-trump-says-collusion-probe-was-not-there">FBI zealously pursued the investigation of Flynn in order to get him to flip and inform on any potential crimes committed by Trump.</a>

An Inspector General’s Report later <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/04/02/latest-inspector-general-report-slams-comeys-fbi-for-massive-failures-to-document-fisa-claims/">excoriated Comey for the abuses that were committed under his leadership</a>. When questioned in a congressional hearing, Comey claimed that he<a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/30/comey-its-not-my-job-to-make-sure-fisa-applications-are-accurate/"> bore no responsibility to ensure whether or not the information in the warrants were accurate</a> and could <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/10/01/supercut-james-comey-doesnt-recall-anything-about-anything/">remember little else about the investigation that he oversaw</a>.

Comey was also cited by the Department of Justice for <a href="https://www.reuters.com/article/us-trump-russia-comey/doj-declines-to-prosecute-comey-despite-finding-that-he-leaked-info-idUSKCN1VJ1UO">improperly leaking sensitive information to the press</a>. When Columbia announced that he had taken a position at their Law School, it was revealed that he would teach alongside the professor to whom <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/comey-columbia-law-school-professor-leaked-trump">Comey leaked his private conversations with President Trump</a>.

Zenkus maintains that capitalist societies are physically harmful to children that grow up in poverty. In a talk called, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZK1DVinPg98&amp;ab_channel=TEDxTalks">“Watch the Gap: How Capitalism Negatively Affects Development</a>,” given at a TEDx event, Zenkus claims that capitalism is the cause of massive inequality and widespread poverty in the country.

At the same event, Zenkus <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZK1DVinPg98&amp;ab_channel=TEDxTalks">attributes</a> everything from racism and brain damage in children to the inequality that he alleges is inherent in our society. In order to alleviate poverty, Zenkus calls for a “transformational distribution of wealth.”

<a href="https://law.ucla.edu/faculty/faculty-profiles/kimberle-w-crenshaw">Dr. Kimberlé Crenshaw</a> is a Professor of Law and the Promise Institute Chair in Human Rights at the <a href="https://www.ucla.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA)</a>. She also teaches law as a professor at the <a href="https://www.law.columbia.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Columbia School of Law</a>.

Dr. Crenshaw is best recognized as a founding scholar of critical race theory and intersectionality. She has continued to make significant contributions to each field throughout her career. Both concepts have been widely adopted by the radical left as the basis for their activism and movements.

Dr. Crenshaw <a href="https://www.jstor.org/stable/1229039?read-now=1&amp;refreqid=excelsior%3Ad80f43d375e3f40179924f768317a237&amp;seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents" target="_blank" rel="noopener">first defined intersectionality in a landmark paper published for the Stanford Law Review, titled, “Mapping the Margins.</a>” In it, she praises identity politics as necessary to the lived experiences of American minorities.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1601 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-09-21T154303.317-e1632264218191-1024x378.png" alt="" width="580" height="214" />

However, Dr. Crenshaw then comments that identity politics does not go nearly far enough, countering that intersectionality is needed to successfully combat what she alleges is the systemic oppression minorities face in America.

Intersectionality is used by activists and academics to depict racial and sexual oppression as interconnected amongst various minority groups. For example in “Mapping the Margins,” Dr. Crenshaw claims that a black woman would suffer from both systemic racism and sexism in America. She further characterizes the theory as the link between <a href="https://newdiscourses.com/2021/03/forging-woke-one-ring-kimberle-crenshaws-mapping-margins/">contemporary politics and postmodernism</a>. Academic James Lindsay describes <a href="https://newdiscourses.com/2021/03/forging-woke-one-ring-kimberle-crenshaws-mapping-margins/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">intersectionality as the “birthplace of wokeness.”</a>

Much of intersectionality’s academic framework was used by Dr. Crenshaw to develop concepts of critical race theory. She drew additional inspiration from <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/society/2020/nov/12/kimberle-crenshaw-the-woman-who-revolutionised-feminism-and-landed-at-the-heart-of-the-culture-wars" target="_blank" rel="noopener">critical legal studies, which, like critical race theory, posits that no American law can truly be neutral or impartial.</a>

Ben Shapiro defines critical race theory—also referred to as critical theory—in an article for Breitbart <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2012/03/11/what-is-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">as an intellectual branch of Marxism that alleges American society and all of its founding institutions are infected with white supremacy</a>. Furthermore, proponents of critical race theory believe that people should take proactive steps to dismantle these institutions in the name of equity, which is also referred to as being “anti-racist.”

Dr. Crenshaw herself further defined the concept in an appearance on MSNBC in July of 2021, She characterized her theory as a method to understand how racial inequality is produced—or acts as a “conduit”—from laws, institutions, and historical oppression, all of which are referenced interchangeably with white supremacy. The full video may be viewed below.

&nbsp;

One such institution that Dr. Crenshaw targets are police departments and policing as a whole. In a <a href="https://mobile.twitter.com/sandylocks/status/1306271685625049089?lang=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tweet from September 2020</a>, she demanded that all police departments be defunded, a move deemed necessary for the full dismantlement of “white nationalism.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
The call to <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/DefundThePolice?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">#DefundThePolice</a> should be a mandate to dismantle the hyper-militaristic, racist functions of the police as the coercive power of white nationalism.
Defunding the police needs to be a call for the de-weaponizing of white supremacy. <a href="https://t.co/rg0bdzImQn" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://t.co/rg0bdzImQn</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

&nbsp;

Crenshaw’s work and activism have been instrumental to school districts adopting critical race theory into their curriculums. One district in Illinois allegedly <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/lawsuit-illinois-school-district-forced-students-on-privilege-walks-compared-whiteness-to-the-devil" target="_blank" rel="noopener">segregated students by race during a “privilege walk</a>” and compared “whiteness” to the devil during class lessons. Another school district in Buffalo, New York taught students that<a href="https://www.city-journal.org/buffalo-public-schools-critical-race-theory-curriculum" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> America is, “built on racism,” and all Americans, “have an implicit racial bias.</a>”

Dr. Crensaw’s work has spawned other prominent critical race theorists like Dr. Nikole Hannah-Jones, author of the 1619 Project. She has described <a href="https://news.columbia.edu/news/what-does-intersectionality-mean-2021-kimberle-crenshaws-podcast-must-listen-way-learn" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Jones work as “phenomenal” to the rethinking of the American founding</a>.

Dr. Jones <a href="https://reason.com/2020/09/23/1619-project-nikole-hannah-jones-1776-founding-race-new-york-times/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claims</a> that America’s real founding was in 1619 when the first slave stepped foot in North America, and not 1776 when the American colonies declared independence from England. <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/03/14/new-york-times-corrects-the-1619-project-but-its-still-a-giant-lie/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Though now retracted for numerous false claims</a>, the documents have now been <a href="https://dc.medill.northwestern.edu/blog/2020/07/21/the-1619-project-curriculum-taught-in-over-4500-schools-frederick-county-public-schools-has-the-option/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">added to the curriculum of 4,500 schools across the country</a>.

Despite evidence to the contrary, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/7-lying-media-outlets-claiming-crt-isnt-being-taught-in-public-schools" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a number of pundits on the left claim that critical race theory isn’t being taught in schools</a>. However, Dr. Crenshaw herself has written that the theory may serve as a <a href="https://twitter.com/realchrisrufo/status/1417313212207271936?s=27" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“catch-all” for race-based scholarship</a>.

Dr. Kendall Thomas is a <a href="https://www.law.columbia.edu/faculty/kendall-thomas" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nash Professor of Law</a> at Columbia University. His areas of study include Family, Gender, &amp; Sexuality and Social Justice &amp; Human Rights. Dr. Thomas is the co-founder and director of the Center for the Study of Law and Culture at Columbia University, and he is co-editor of <a href="https://scholarship.law.columbia.edu/books/101/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Critical Race Theory: The Key Writings That Founded the Movement</a> with fellow Professor Watchlist professors Dr. <a href="https://professorwatchlist.org/professor/crenshaw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kimberlé Crenshaw</a> and Dr. <a href="https://professorwatchlist.org/professor/garypellar" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gary Pellar</a>. In his free time, he is a professional jazz vocalist.

When Dr. Thomas isn’t teaching in the law classroom or singing jazz music, he can be found vehemently supporting critical race theory. <a href="https://www.hawaiipublicradio.org/local-news/2021-06-01/critical-race-theory-for-k-12-graders" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In a radio clip for Hawaii Public Radio</a>, Dr. Thomas discussed his beliefs about critical race theory in the classroom. In his opinion, critical race theory should be taught to children, including K-12 classrooms. He claims that the American Revolution of 1776 isn’t comprehensive of our country’s history, and we need to be teaching about the slavery that occured in 1619 to really understand this country.

During <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/what-critical-race-theory-why-do-some-want-ban-1587389" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a conversation with a journalist at Newsweek</a>, Dr. Thomas discusses critical race theory and why some are against it. Dr. Thomas alleges that conservatives and others are “over-the-top attacking” critical race theory despite having no idea what CRT actually is. He asserts that conservatives want to shut down critical race theory so they won’t “lose the national debate… about institutional racism.”

He argues that if you care about the future of our democratic republic, you need to support the teachings and learning that CRT stands for. Dr. Thomas states that critical race theory is a body of writing and method of research about the meaning of race both today and historically.

Dr. Thomas often takes to Twitter to discuss critical race theory, politics, and his disdain for conservatives. <a href="https://twitter.com/Ill_Legitimacy/status/1326013415178039302" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In one tweet</a>, he accused conservatives of weaponizing the government in attempts to undo the 2020 presidential election results.

<a href="https://gca.columbia.edu/people/flores-forbes" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mr. Flores Forbes</a> is an Associate Vice President for Community Affairs at Columbia University. Mr. Flores is a convicted murderer who served as Huey Newton’s enforcer in the Black Panther Party.

The organization was<a href="https://www.history.com/topics/civil-rights-movement/black-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> formed by black nationalists, Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale, in 1966 as the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense.</a> The group’s early activities included monitoring police and social programs for urban communities.

<a href="http://web.stanford.edu/~ccarson/articles/am_left.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The party was explicitly organized along</a> Marxist-Leninist lines. Members were <a href="https://archives.frontpagemag.com/fpm/reflections-panthers-john-perazzo/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">required to read communist texts such as Mao Zedong’s, Red Book and Che Guevara</a>. Bobby Seale was known to <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/whitewashing-the-black-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fondly quote Soviet Dictator, Joseph Stalin</a>.

Despite their alleged philanthropy, the Panthers used their community programs–dubbed survival programs—as a front for criminal activity. David Horowitz—who worked for the Panthers at the time—observed the Panthers' <a href="https://archives.frontpagemag.com/fpm/pbs-propaganda-machine-black-panther-killers-frontpagemagcom/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">embezzling and illegal trafficking operations based out of the Oakland Community Center.</a>

The Panthers were feared for their mob-like enforcement and brutality. Members were <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/whitewashing-the-black-panthers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">known to pour boiling water over suspected </a>police informants and fire-bomb the cars of journalists. Co-founder, Huey Newton, was convicted—which was later overturned by an appellate court—and spent time in prison for the murder of police officer, John Frey. He is further <a href="https://www.salon.com/1999/12/13/betty/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">suspected to have taken part in multiple murders</a> committed by the Panthers.

Known as Newton’s “internal enforcer”, Mr. Forbes carried out at least one execution on behalf of his boss. <a href="https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/2020/12/radical-son-frontpagemagcom/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Flores was ordered to perform a hit against Crystal Gray</a>, who had witnessed Newton murder a prostitute—Kathleen Smith—and was set to testify in his trial.

However, Mr. Forbes and the other assassins mistakenly arrived at the address of a fellow Panther, who returned fire and injured Mr. Forbes before he was killed. Following a nationwide manhunt, Mr. Forbes turned himself in, where he was convicted and spent 5 years in prison for second-degree murder.

Mr. Forbes is also suspected in the murder of Betty Van Patter. As a book-maker for the Panthers, Patter <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20160110093526/http://www.insidebayarea.com/ci_5016589" target="_blank" rel="noopener">was a first-hand witness to the organization’s criminal activity and threatened to expose the Panthers to the press</a>. After missing for five weeks, her body was recovered in the San Francisco Bay.

Although Mr. Forbes is believed by Patter’s daughter and the <a href="https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/2020/12/radical-son-frontpagemagcom/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">FBI to be responsible for her killing</a>, no arrests were made. Furthermore, the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20180330211353/http://fbidocs.com/betty-van-patter" target="_blank" rel="noopener">FBI destroyed all files relating to Patter in 2009</a>, so the apparent murder will remain unsolved. The Black Panther party dissolved in 1984 and Huey Newton was murdered in 1989. Mr. Forbes went on to author a book about his time in the Panthers—titled, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Will-You-Die-Me-Panther/dp/0743482689" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Will You Die with Me?</a>— and <a href="https://news.columbia.edu/news/cu-people-flores-forbes-urban-planner" target="_blank" rel="noopener">has worked at Columbia since 2007</a>.

<a href="https://www.tc.columbia.edu/faculty/kf2119/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Karen Froud</a> is an Associate Professor of Neuroscience and Education at the Teachers College of Columbia University in New York City.

In a letter to colleagues, Dr. Froud urged them to boycott Israel and its universities, accusing both of contributing to apartheid-like conditions in the Palestinian territories.

Her remarks were spurred by the comments of another colleague, Gerry Leisman, who asked fellow scientists to continue their reviews for his research. Dr. Talisman is a neuroscientist at the University of Haifa in Israel.

“Hi, 

I am the guest editor of a special issue of the Journal Brain Sciences and we are producing a special issue of the journal entitled, “The Brain Goes to School, details for which can be found at the following link:

https://www.mdpi.com/.../brai.../special_issues/brain_school

We are recruiting both reviews and results of experimental studies that related to human learning, its difficulties, remediation strategies, models, cognitive science, cognitive neuropsychology all essentially attempting to translate 150 years of cognitive neuroscience into classroom Applications [sic].”

In her reply, Dr. Froud urges her colleagues to refuse the request <a href="https://elderofziyon.blogspot.com/2022/03/columbia-bds-professor-little-unclear.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">on the grounds that the University of Haifa is an “apartheid institution,” and adhere to the demands of the “Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions Movement</a>.”

“Dear colleagues - 

I urge you to consider this request in light of the Boycotts, Divestments, and Sanctions Movement for freedom and justice in Palestine. Like many/most academic institutions in Israel, Haifa University is an apartheid institution. 

<a href="https://bdsmovement.net/tags/haifa-university" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://bdsmovement.net/tags/haifa-university</a>

I recognize that many of you work within this institution and hope you are also doing your part for academic freedom.

Warm wishes for a peaceful and just world - which after all is where educational neuroscience as a field points us.

BDS—short for Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions—supporters embrace 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.

Mr. Omar Barghouti, a co-founder of the BDS movement, admits that the ultimate outcome of these steps is the <a href="https://twitter.com/StandWithUs/status/1267561561565958144" target="_blank" rel="noopener">dismantlement of the state of Israel</a>.

<a href="https://www.tc.columbia.edu/faculty/bl2938/">Bettina L. Love</a> is a Professor of Education at Columbia University. A prominent critical race theorist, Dr. Love is responsible for the anti-racist curriculum that schools across the country use to teach students.

<a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2012/03/11/what-is-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Critical race theory is an intellectual branch of Marxism</a>—also referred to as critical theory—that alleges <a href="https://newdiscourses.com/tftw-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">white supremacy infects all political, legal, and cultural institutions</a> in America. Many prominent critical theorists, including professor <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/nikolehannahjones" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Nikole Hannah-Jones</a>, even claim that the <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/nikolehannahjones" target="_blank" rel="noopener">nation’s true founding year is 1619</a>—rather than 1776—when the first slave stepped foot in North America.

Dr. Love describes herself as an <a href="https://bettinalove.com/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">abolitionist and anti-racist activist educator</a> who works to understand and critique “systemic and structural racism in education.”<a href="https://thefederalist.com/2021/08/12/meet-bettina-l-love-a-critical-race-theorist-coming-to-a-school-near-you/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> She further details her beliefs</a> in her book, “<a href="https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/622408/we-want-to-do-more-than-survive-by-bettina-love/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">We Want to Do More Than Survive.</a>”

Dr. Love is the founder of the Abolitionist Teaching Network (ATN) whose goal is to provide educators with the resources for abolitionist teaching, which Dr. Love characterizes <a href="https://www.sesp.northwestern.edu/news-center/news/2021/01/abolitionist-teaching-a-conversation-with-bettina-l-love.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">as “calling out” fellow teachers who are racist, homophobic, or Islamophobic.”</a>

ATN’s own documents encourage abolitionist teachers to promote the “liberation” of people of color and “embody the spirit” of the Black Lives Matter movement.

<img class="size-full wp-image-2028 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Screen-Shot-2022-03-30-at-3.32.03-PM-1.png" alt="" width="570" height="716" />

&nbsp;

The page is found in ATN’s “<a href="https://img1.wsimg.com/blobby/go/8d4b8aa7-b12e-4df8-9836-081a29841523/downloads/ATN%20Guide%20to%20Racial%20and%20Restorative%20Justice%20in.pdf?ver=1639147237108" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Guide to Racial and Restorative Justice.</a>” Dr. Love’s organization distributes the document to school districts across the country as a resource for teachers. The resource instructs educators to demand the following from their school districts:

- Hire more black, brown, and indigenous teachers,

- Hire abolitionist teachers,

- Free anti-racist therapy for white educators,

- Reduce class sizes for the benefit of black, brown, and indigenous children,

- Remove any and all police officers from schools,

- Reparations for minority children,

- Teaching standards that promote “Black, Brown, and Indigenous liberation.”

The document further accuses schools of the “spirit murder” of minority studies via disciplinary practices.

<a href="https://www.ldeo.columbia.edu/anders-levermann" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Anders Levermann</a> is an Adjunct Senior Research Scientist at Columbia University.

On September 8, 2022, Dr. Levermann published a <a href="https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2022/09/220907192546.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">research paper</a> claiming that climate change leads to increased levels of hate speech online. The study utilizes the United Nations' definition of hate speech, which states, “Cases of discriminatory language with reference to a person or a group on the basis of their religion, ethnicity, nationality, race, color, descent, gender or other identity factors.” 

The paper alleges that hate speech increases, regardless of income bracket or belief system, when the temperature rises above 86 degrees or falls beneath 54 degrees Fahrenheit. The study further states that hateful posts on Twitter decrease when the temperature is between 59 degrees to 65 degrees Fahrenheit. 

Dr. Levermann states that “even in high-income areas where people may have air conditioning, an increase in hate speech was seen on ‘extremely hot days.’” Dr. Leverman concludes by claiming, “Protecting our climate from excessive global warming is also critical to our mental health.”

Dr. Levermann has a long history of <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article?id=20246" target="_blank" rel="noopener">climate activism</a> and has <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/jul/10/individuals-climate-crisis-government-planet-priority" target="_blank" rel="noopener">stated</a>, “[I]t’s true: people drive too much, eat too much meat, and fly too often.”

Hillary Rodham Clinton is Columbia University’s professor of practice in the School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA). A <a href="https://www.sipa.columbia.edu/news/secretary-hillary-rodham-clinton-will-join-sipa-faculty" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> from the dean of SIPA says Clinton is “now bringing her leadership and expertise to SIPA…to prepare the next generation of global policy leaders…”

On January 5, 2023, <a href="https://news.columbia.edu/news/hillary-rodham-clinton-join-columbia-community" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Columbia News announced</a> that Clinton “will help lead a major SIPA effort to convene outstanding policy thinkers from around the world to develop innovative policy solutions.” The publication also says she will help college executives “explore the fundamental questions on how to advance efforts to renew democracy and foster effective engagements with women and youth in [the United States] and around the world."

EARLY YEARS
Clinton—who graduated in 1969 from Wellesley College as Hillary Rodham—allegedly wrote her senior thesis on political activist and grassroots strategist Sal Alinski. In 1972, he <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Rules-Radicals-Practical-Primer-Realistic/dp/0679721134/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1FU7H88O8OXHA&amp;keywords=rules+for+radicals+by+saul+d.+alinsky&amp;qid=1673991341&amp;sprefix=rules+for+%2Caps%2C203&amp;sr=8-1&amp;asin=0679721134&amp;revisionId=&amp;format=4&amp;depth=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">authored</a> “Rules for Radicals: A Pragmatic Primer for Realist Radicals,” which centers on disrupting societies through revolutionary community organizing. Alinski infamously dedicated the volume of writing to the fallen angel and nemesis of God, Lucifer. Alinski is rumored to be Clinton’s “mentor” and a major influence on her flux from a stalwart Republican to a progressive Democrat by graduation. 

Although Clinton’s thesis is referenced in multiple media publications, the full composition is neither accessible through online archives nor searchable on her <a href="https://www.wellesley.edu/news/journalists/hillary-rodham-clinton" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Wellesley alumni profile</a>. According to <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/id/wbna17388372" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBC News</a>, the academic paper is “available to anyone who visits the archive room of the prestigious women’s college outside Boston.”

Throughout her time at Wellesley, Clinton served as the head of Wellesley’s Young Republicans Club from 1966-67; she also pursued a research assistant internship for the House Republican Conference during the summer of 1968 in D.C. A <a href="https://www.npr.org/sections/itsallpolitics/2015/04/11/395302391/5-things-you-should-know-about-hillary-clinton" target="_blank" rel="noopener">National Public Radio</a> (NPR) article says, “In high school [Clinton]...considered herself a Republican and even became a <a href="https://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/minute/barry_goldwater_of_arizona.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Goldwater</a> Girl.” NPR included a quote from Clinton’s book “Living History”:

“‘My ninth-grade history teacher…encouraged me to read Senator Barry Goldwater’s book, The Conscience of a Conservative. That inspired me to write my term paper on the American conservative movement…I liked Senator Goldwater because he was a rugged individualist who swam against the political tide.’”

Clinton earned a Juris Doctorate from Yale Law School in 1973, joined the University of Arkansas Law School faculty in 1975, and was appointed by President Jimmy Carter as a member of the board of the Legal Services Corporation in 1978. Clinton’s law career includes the controversial case of a 12-year-old sexual abuse survivor Kathy Shelton. Clinton, who served as legal counsel for rapist Thomas Alfred Taylor, worked to shorten his prison sentence. 

According to <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3729466/Child-rape-victim-comes-forward-time-40-years-call-Hillary-Clinton-liar-defended-rapist-smearing-blocking-evidence-callously-laughing-knew-guilty.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">DailyMail</a>, “One of Clinton’s first moves was to raise questions about the credibility of the…victim. In a July 18, 1975 affidavit, Clinton asked the court to order Shelton to undergo a psychiatric examination from a doctor selected by Taylor’s legal team.” Clinton accused Shelton of wanting attention from older men and subjected her to intense psychological interrogations. Clinton negotiated a plea deal and Taylor spent one year in county jail.

SECRETARY OF STATE
From 2009-2013, Clinton served as Secretary of State in the Obama administration. During this time, she used private email servers instead of State Department accounts to send classified, sensitive information. According to a <a href="https://www.fbi.gov/news/press-releases/press-releases/statement-by-fbi-director-james-b-comey-on-the-investigation-of-secretary-hillary-clinton2019s-use-of-a-personal-e-mail-system" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> released by the FBI, “Secretary Clinton used several different servers and administrators of those servers during her four years at the State Department, and used numerous mobile devices to view and send e-mail on that personal domain.” 

The FBI goes further into detail on thousands of work-related emails that Clinton withheld, several of which included highly sensitive information on unclassified personal servers. The FBI also discovered Clinton was using her personal email in and out of the country.

In 2016, <a href="https://www.investors.com/politics/editorials/clinton-foundation-donations/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Investors Business Daily</a> reported that Clinton and her organization, the Clinton Foundation, were also undergoing an FBI investigation for violating “tax laws by converting donations into personal or political use.” An annual report (below) shows donations plummeting when Clinton was not running for a public office, and sharp increases when she ran for President of the United States. After Clinton lost the election, donations fell by 88%.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-2800 size-full" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Screen-Shot-2023-01-25-at-11.49.44-AM.png" alt="" width="515" height="324" />

The Clintons, as well as advocates for the foundation, defended the organization’s reputation insisting that “the foundation was doing great work for mankind.” According to the <a href="https://observer.com/2016/08/the-six-clinton-foundation-scandals-everyone-needs-to-know/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Observer</a>, foreign countries such as “Australia, Germany, the United Arab Emirates, and a Canadian government agency…all donated to the Clinton Foundation.” <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/21/us/politics/hillary-clinton-presidential-campaign-charity.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The New York Times</a> also reported that Saudi Arabia, a country that heavily restricts the rights of women, donated more than $10 million to the foundation during Hillary’s <a href="https://www.hillaryclinton.com/issues/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2016 Presidential Campaign</a>.

RUSSIAGATE
Clinton spent her time in public office leveraging several foreign connections. During her time as First Lady, from 1993-2001, Clinton <a href="https://spectator.org/chinagate-and-the-clintons/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">solicited foreign donations to the Democratic National Committee</a> (DNC) from businessmen with connections to the Chinese Communist Party. The scandal would eventually be known as “Chinagate.” 

While serving as Secretary of State, Clinton approved the sale of <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2017/10/23/7-uranium-one-facts-every-american-should-know/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">20% of U.S. uranium reserves</a> to a Russian company. The financial backers of the venture funneled $145 million to the Clinton Foundation before the sale. Bill Clinton was paid $500,000 for a speech in Moscow the same month the deal was finalized.  

In October 2016, Clinton released a statement via advisor Jake Sullivan—who was later appointed as <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/biden-jake-sullivan-national-security-adviser/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">National Security Advisor</a> to Joe Biden— accusing Donald Trump of coordinating with Vladimir Putin to hack the DNC’s servers and release sensitive information. She alleged this was accomplished through a backchannel to the Kremlin through Alfa Bank.

Although this was <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2021/oct/21/fbi-file-disproves-trump-alfa-bank-link/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">known to be false</a>, DNC lawyer Michael Sussman <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/justice/sussmanns-cozy-relationship-with-the-fbi-revealed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">approached the FBI </a>and provided the agency with the fraudulent information. The <a href="https://jonathanturley.org/2022/03/31/fec-fines-the-clinton-campaign-and-dnc-for-the-steele-dossier/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Clinton campaign also funded</a> what became known as the “Steele Dossier”—a document containing <a href="https://www.dailysignal.com/2020/10/31/key-source-identified-for-debunked-trump-russia-claim-in-steele-dossier/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">salacious and fallacious information</a> alleging Trump was connected to Russian intelligence. Despite knowing the information was also unverified, the FBI used the dossier to obtain <a href="https://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2020/04/16/new-fisa-abusegrassley-n2567020" target="_blank" rel="noopener">warrants to surveil</a> Trump’s 2016 Presidential Campaign.

BENGHAZI
On September 11, 2012, four Americans, including Ambassador Chris Stevens, were <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/world/what-happened-during-after-benghazi-attack-2012" target="_blank" rel="noopener">killed during an attack</a> on an American diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya. The <a href="https://www.congress.gov/113/crpt/srpt134/CRPT-113srpt134.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Senate Select Committee’s Benghazi Report</a> shows Clinton ignored the “ample strategic warning that [the] security situation in eastern Libya was deteriorating and that U.S. facilities and personnel were at risk in Benghazi.” 

Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/286438-obstruction-lies-and-dishonor-hillarys-benghazi-legacy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">testified that he had identified</a> “three distinct capabilities” to deploy to Benghazi by 6 pm and had “issued the order to deploy the identified assets” by 7 pm. However, at 7:30 pm, a “Deputies Meeting” was convened in the White House. The meeting featured Clinton and deputies from State, the Pentagon, and the White House, while both the President and Secretary of Defense were absent. 

During this meeting, Clinton obstructed the direct order from the President, noting that her “State department emphasized any deployment of U.S. Forces into Libya needed approval from the Government of Libya.” 

The Americans in Benghazi were ultimately rescued by a group of former Gaddafi loyalists not affiliated with the Libyan government while American forces were in a “stand-by posture” awaiting the resolution of Secretary Clinton’s obstruction.  After the attacks, Secretary Clinton <a href="https://www.judicialwatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/Benghazi-Ops-Alert-FOIA-Page-10-11.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">issued an official statement</a>, claiming the assault may have been in “a response to inflammatory material posted on the Internet.” 

However, <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2015/03/03/new-documents-blow-lid-off-obamaclinton-benghazi-scandal/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">emails uncovered through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request</a> by Judicial Watch show that Clinton’s top three staff members were forwarded an email on September 11, 2012, at 6:06 PM with the subject line “Update 2: Ansar al-Sharia Claims Responsibility for Benghazi Attack (SBU).” The email, from State Department Foreign Service Officer Lawrence Randolph, read: “(SBU) Embassy Tripoli reports the group claimed responsibility on Facebook and Twitter and call for an attack on Embassy Tripoli.” Despite knowing this, Clinton and other government officials stuck to the theory that the attacks were in response to a YouTube video.

Clinton will assume the position with Columbia University on February 1, 2023.

<a href="https://www.tc.columbia.edu/faculty/bl2938/">Bettina L. Love</a> is a Professor of Education at Columbia University. A prominent critical race theorist, Dr. Love is responsible for the anti-racist curriculum that schools across the country use to teach students.

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

Dr. Love is the founder of the Abolitionist Teaching Network (ATN) whose goal is to provide educators with the resources for abolitionist teaching, which Dr. Love characterizes <a href="https://www.sesp.northwestern.edu/news-center/news/2021/01/abolitionist-teaching-a-conversation-with-bettina-l-love.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">as “calling out” fellow teachers who are racist, homophobic, or Islamophobic.”</a>
ATN’s own documents encourage abolitionist teachers to promote the “liberation” of people of color and “embody the spirit” of the Black Lives Matter movement.

&#8211; Free anti-racist therapy for white educators,
&#8211; Reduce class sizes for the benefit of black, brown, and indigenous children,
&#8211; Remove any and all police officers from schools,
&#8211; Reparations for minority children,

<a href="https://www.phil.uga.edu/directory/people/irami-osei-frimpong" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Irami Osei-Frimpong</a> is a Teaching Assistant at the University of Georgia. He’s called for the death of white people and claimed that racial violence is the only way to achieve social justice.
In a now-deleted Medium article, Irami announced <a href="https://archive.ph/TCbjw#selection-127.0-134.0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">he was banned from Facebook</a> for stating that killing “some” white people isn’t genocide. The article is a repost of Irami’s original post, in which he defended a Texas A&amp;M professor—Tommy Curry—who called for killing white people:
“I guess I am going to post once more on Curry’s situation. We are too easy on white people. The Washington Examiner posted an article with the lead: “Curry called for white genocide, saying in a 2012 podcast ‘in order to be equal, in order to be liberated, some white people may have to die.“ <a href="https://archive.ph/o/TCbjw/www.washingtonexaminer.com/texas-am-wont-fire-professor-who-called-for-killing-white-people/article/2622810">http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/texas-am-wont-fire-professor-who-called-for-killing-white-people/article/2622810</a>
“First of all, killing some white people isn’t genocide; it’s killing some white people. We had to kill some white people to get out of slavery. Maybe if we’d killed more during the 20th century we still wouldn’t talk about racialized voter disenfranchisement and housing, education, and employment discrimination.”
Irami goes on to say he hopes the media will prepare white people “for the hit they are going to have to take” so that racial justice may be achieved without “killing too many of them.”
“If we want racial justice without having to kill them, then all of our educational and media institutions should be preparing white people for the hit they are going to have to take, so that we get racial justice without killing too many of them.”
Further posts on Twitter—many of which are still live—disparage white people as “autistic sociopaths” and claim they are “not people.”

<a href="https://uas.alaska.edu/dir/latwitchell.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">X̱ʼunei Lance Twitchell</a> is a Professor of Alaskan Native Languages in the department of Arts and Sciences — Humanities at the University of Alaska Southeast.
According to <a href="https://www.firstnations.org/stories/luce-fellow-spotlight-x%CC%B1%CA%BCunei-lance-twitchell/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">First Nations Development Institute</a>, “Twitchell has spent half his life working with Tlingit elders to learn, understand, and teach the endangered Tlingit language.” The Tlingits are an indigenous people in the Pacific Northwest of North America.
In 2018, Twitchell wrote his dissertation for his P.h.D. titled <a href="https://www.academia.edu/37986649/HAA_DACHX_%C3%81NX%CA%BCI_S%C3%81ANI_KAG%C3%89IYI_Y%C3%8DS_HAA_YOO_X_%CA%BCAT%C3%81NGI_KEI_NALTSEEN_FOR_OUR_LITTLE_GRANDCHILDREN_LANGUAGE_REVITALIZATION_AMONG_THE_TLINGIT_by_X_%CA%BCunei_Lance_Twitchell" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“HAA DACHX̱ÁNXʼI SÁANI KAGÉIYI YÍS: HAA YOO X̱ʼATÁNGI KEI NALTSEEN FOR OUR LITTLE GRANDCHILDREN: LANGUAGE REVITALIZATION AMONG THE TLINGIT.” </a>
According to its abstract, “This dissertation documents some of the events that have led to massive language decline, and proposes a series of interconnected methods that would result in language revitalization.”
In the essay, Twitchell states:
“If modernity is the vehicle that allows colonialism to exist in such a privileged state that examination is seen as backwards, chaos-inducing, or unpatriotic, then its partner in genocidal crime is coloniality. These concepts are important to understand in order to untangle the value systems that are nested within colonizing languages.”
Twitchell calls for the revitalization of indigenous languages: 
“In order to begin creating equity in these areas of disparity, Indigenous languages must be revitalized. Places of power and use must be created and language continuity movements must have the support of individuals, families, institutions, and governments. Language is sovereignty. Language is identity. Language is the way to succeed. Language is the way to survive.” 
In another essay titled “<a href="https://www.academia.edu/27361526/Cha_Haa_K%C3%A1x_Yan_Has_Ag_adeil_Just_Let_Them_Watch_Over_Us_Creating_Safe_Acquisition_Environments_for_Indigenous_Languages" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ch&#8217;a Haa Káx Yan Has Agadeil: Just Let Them Watch Over Us Creating Safe Acquisition Environments for Indigenous Languages”</a> Twitchell addresses general indigenous usage of language, and comments upon what he claims are, “The dehumanizing effects of American genocide and oppression only add to this, where the suffering is either invisible or an inevitable price for freedom.”
He also asserts the following about minorities, claiming that they are oppressed by the United States:
“Indigenous communities must be cautious when it comes to oppression of women, the poor, the uneducated, LGBTQ, mixed ethnicities, and those with disabilities. The metaoppressions that create success in America are commonly replicated either in efforts to assimilate and succeed or to become a dominant cultural spokesperson who distorts culture in order to replicate oppressive individual success.”
Twitchell suggests that “the soul-crushing scars of worldwide colonization and genocide should be further explored so that all those involved in building movements and working towards linguistic equity can understand the use of terms like beaten persons syndrome and work towards creating spaces that nurture and protect existing speakers while finding the paths that will create speakers in the future.”

<a href="https://www.fredonia.edu/academics/colleges-schools/college-liberal-arts-sciences/philosophy/faculty/Stephen-Kershnar" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Stephen Kershnar</a> is a professor in the philosophy department at the State University of New York at Fredonia. Dr. Kershnar’s university profile claims that he has written one hundred articles on topics such as abortion, hell, pornography, sexual fantasies, slavery, and adult-child sex.
Dr. Kershnar is known for his academic attempts to justify controversial stances and illegal acts. Several of his articles include:
&#8211; <a href="https://philpapers.org/rec/KERFTA-2" target="_blank" rel="noopener">When torture may be permissible</a>.
&#8211; <a href="https://philpapers.org/rec/KERGTV" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Why Americans should not be grateful to veterans.</a>
&#8211; <a href="https://philpapers.org/rec/KERTCT-2" target="_blank" rel="noopener">How morality and responsibility are fictitious concepts</a>.
&#8211; <a href="http://isme.tamu.edu/JSCOPE06/Kershnar06.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Why killing civilians in war is justified.</a>
&#8211; <a href="https://philpapers.org/rec/KERALA" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Why slavery, in of itself, may not be a human rights violation</a>.
In one paper—titled, <a href="https://philpapers.org/rec/KERPAA-7" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Pedophilia and Adult-Child Sex: A Philosophical Analysis</a>,”— Dr. Kershnar describes moral opposition to pedophilia as “aesthetic.” While acknowledging that many regard “adult-child” relationships as sickening, he states that there exists no clear reason as to whether these judgments are justified or wrong.
In a separate interview, Dr. Kershnar argues that there is nothing immoral about an adult male having a relationship with a “willing” 12-year-old girl.
“Imagine that an adult male wants to have sex with a 12-year-old girl. Imagine that she’s a willing participant. A very standard, very widely held view is that there’s something deeply wrong about this. It’s wrong independent of it being criminalized. It’s not obvious to me that it’s in fact wrong.”

Continuing, Dr. Kershnar then decries the age of consent. He states that it’s “not quite obvious” that restrictions should apply to adult relationships with children as young as one-year-old. He then states that he does not consider there to be a “blanket wrong” for any age.
“One is even if you are looking for a threshold. Let’s say there’s a threshold. I’m making this number up, but let’s say it’s at age 8. Still, that tells you that some adult-child sex is permissible.

“I would claim that in evolutionary terms, as best as we can determine, it’s more likely than not there’s a strong evolutionary case for adult-child sex.”

<a href="https://weissman.baruch.cuny.edu/weissman-academic-departments/the-department-of-history/department-of-history-faculty/">Johanna Fernandez</a> is an Associate Professor of History at <a href="https://www.baruch.cuny.edu/">Baruch College</a> in New York City. According to her <a href="https://www.johannafernandez.net/">personal website</a>, Fernandez teaches US history as well as the history of social movements.
Riots and Violence 
Fernadez dedicates much of her professional life to teaching students about convicted cop-killer, Mumia Abu-Jamal. A founding member of the Philadelphia Black Panther Party, Abu-Jamal is currently <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/dec/22/the-never-ending-saga-of-cop-killer-mumia-abu-jama/">serving</a> a life sentence without the possibility of parole for the murder of Philadelphia Police Officer, Daniel Faulkner, in December of 1981.
Despite his conviction, Fernandez maintains that Abu-Jamal is innocent. In an article titled, “Mumia Abu-Jamal: A Black Radical Who Matters For Our Time” for HuffPost, Fernandez <a href="https://www.huffpost.com/entry/mumia-abujamal-a-black-ra_b_6621946">alleges</a> that Abu-Jamal’s trial was “railroaded” by the <a href="https://www.fop.net/">Fraternal Order of Police</a> (FOP) and that Abu-Jamal is innocent of murdering Faulkner. Fernandez further claims that Abu-Jamal’s sentence is proof that the police are attempting to silence Abu-Jamal, as the FOP views him as a threat to their power.
Describing him as a “black prophetic voice,” Fernandez also <a href="https://www.huffpost.com/entry/mumia-abujamal-a-black-ra_b_6621946">states</a> in the same article that Abu-Jamal can serve as an inspiration for today’s social justice activists and young black men. Fernandez predicts that Abu-Jamal’s work will eventually enact a “revolution.”

Fernadez is also known to organize letter-writing campaigns among elementary school students to Jamal. As the New Jersey-based online newspaper NJ.com <a href="https://www.nj.com/essex/2015/04/nj_teacher_suspended_over_third-graders_get_well_l.html">reports</a>, Fernandez and Marylin Zuniga, a former 3rd-grade elementary school teacher in Orange, NJ and now the Educational Director of the <a href="https://www.myceliumyouthnetwork.org/meet-our-staff">Mycelium Youth Network,</a> assigned students to write “get-well” letters to Abu-Jamal.

<a href="https://mitchellhamline.edu/biographies/person/lisa-needham/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lisa Needham</a> is a professor at the Mitchell Hamline School of Law. She teaches appellate advocacy courses and works as an editor and writer with a focus on law practice management technology, diversity in the law, access to justice, and more.
According to <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article?id=20486" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Campus Reform</a>, Needham participated in an op-ed for <a href="https://rewirenewsgroup.com/2022/10/18/abortion-bans-are-creating-free-speech-battle-in-schools/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rewire News Group</a> and argued that when it comes to abortion, conservatives “control speech.”
Needham’s publication is titled “<a href="https://rewirenewsgroup.com/2022/10/18/abortion-bans-are-creating-free-speech-battle-in-schools/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Abortion Bans Are Creating Free Speech Battles in Schools</a>.” She argues: “With the overturning of Roe v. Wade, conservatives scored a victory decades in the making: controlling pregnant people’s bodies. They’re not satisfied with just that, though. The next step is to control any speech they don’t like…” 
In this publication, Needham also criticizes Senator Ben Sasse (R-NE): “Sasse is a big fan of ‘religious liberty’ when it comes to dismantling the line between church and state, so his hiring likely doesn’t bode well for a university already under siege by conservative elected officials…” 
The publication is concluded with her claim that conservatives just protect their own freedom of speech. “[M]odern conservatism has become very comfortable with ‘free speech for me, but not for thee,’ and they’ve captured enough of the federal courts that they’ll continue to get their way… Meanwhile, expect more public university systems in red states to start being tentative, worried, and self-censored when talking about reproductive rights or racial justice.”
