Arizona State University Professor David Boyles—who <a href="https://angelictroublemakers.substack.com/p/queer-joy-summer-planting-3-promote" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a>, “Sex education is a topic I’ve been obsessed with for a while”—appeared to physically assault a Turning Point USA Frontlines cameraman.  

TPUSA’s Frontlines team confronted Boyles after <a href="https://azfreenews.com/2023/09/meet-the-asu-professor-behind-arizonas-drag-queen-story-hour/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">learning</a> that he founded the Arizona chapter of Drag Queen Story Hour. Boyles refused to respond to the Frontlines reporter who asked how long he’d had the obsession with sex education and why he felt children should be exposed to drag queens.

The video of Boyles assaulting the cameraman can be viewed below:

<a href="https://search.asu.edu/profile/280652" target="_blank" rel="noopener">David Boyles</a> is a Professor of English Writing at Arizona State University (ASU). His “areas of expertise” include but are not limited to “Rhetoric,” “Public Communication,” and “Gender Studies.”

<a href="https://azfreenews.com/2023/09/meet-the-asu-professor-behind-arizonas-drag-queen-story-hour/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AZ Free News</a> featured Boyles in an article titled “Meet the ASU Professor Behind Arizona’s Drag Queen Story Hour.” The source writes:

“Boyles established Drag Queen Story Hour-Arizona in 2019, a chapter of the national Drag Queen Story Hour organization…Boyles has been featured in several ‘The Art of Drag’ events alongside one of his drag queen storytellers…The most recent event occurred on Wednesday [September 20, 2023].  During the <a href="https://youtu.be/RN0Bou3wmxk" target="_blank" rel="noopener">presentation</a>, Boyles said that the notion that drag shows are harmful to children was a ‘myth.’ He also said that drag queens have been long considered the leaders of LGBTQ+ communities.”

During “<a href="https://youtu.be/RN0Bou3wmxk" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Art of Drag</a>” talk, Boyles claimed Drag Queen Story Hour-Arizona has been “targeted by acts of violence” and “neo-Nazis showing up to disrupt events.” He also presented what he believed to be the beginning of drag culture in America using the newspaper clip featured below:

On May 16, 2023, Boyles <a href="https://angelictroublemakers.substack.com/p/queer-joy-summer-planting-3-promote" target="_blank" rel="noopener">published a blog</a> - “Queer Joy Summer Planting #3: Promote Radical Queer Sex Education” - in which he stated he was “trying to plant more queer joy in the world.” He also said:

“Sex education is a topic I’ve been obsessed with for a while…In 2021, I did a three-part ‘<a href="https://angelictroublemakers.substack.com/p/queering-sex-ed-part-i" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Queering Sex Ed</a>’ series on the history of sex education in America and the ways in which it has traditionally erased queer people, as well as the ways in which queer people have resisted this erasure and cared for their communities by creating their own sex ed underground.”

In the “Queer Sex Ed” blog, Boyles also wrote that sex education has been traditionally racist since “black people and immigrants were typically viewed as being sexually promiscuous and aggressive and sex education was designed to keep good white kids from being ‘infected’ by them.”

In <a href="https://lookoutphx.substack.com/p/bomb-threat-made-against-children" target="_blank" rel="noopener">another publication</a> promoting his Drag Queen Story Hour initiative, Boyles said:

<a href="https://cronkite.asu.edu/about/faculty-and-leadership/faculty/gilgerbio">Kristin Gilger</a> is the Reynolds Professor of Business Journalism and the interim dean at the Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication at Arizona State University (ASU). She is the author of the book <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Theres-No-Crying-Newsrooms-Learned/dp/1538121492">“There’s No Crying in Newsrooms”</a> and has served in various roles at ASU since 2002.

Gilger has been mired in controversy since assuming her role as dean this past summer. The previous candidate, Sonya Forte Duhe, was replaced by Gilger after <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/after-tweet-supporting-good-police-officers-arizona-state-revokes-journalism-dean-offer/">her offer was rescinded by the university</a>. After tweeting an image that was considered too positive towards police officers, Duhe was condemned by university faculty for showing “poor judgment.”

Gilger has come under fire after pressuring Rae’Lee Klein, a senior journalism major, and station manager for ASU’s Blaze radio, to resign from her position after <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/08/28/this-is-why-jacob-blake-had-a-warrant-out-for-his-arrest/?preview_id=16209831">tweeting and soon deleting a New York Post article</a> detailing the warrant issued for Jacob Blake’s arrest;

“Always more to the story, folks. Please read this article to get to the background of Jacob Blake’s warrant. You’ll be quite disgusted“ 

Blake—who was wanted for sexually assaulting his ex-girlfriend—was shot in the back by police after resisting arrest and allegedly reaching for a knife on the floor of his car.

Facing immediate backlash for her tweet, the Board of Directors at the station <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/09/18/arizona-student-journalist-cancelled-over-jacob-blake-tweet/">voted unanimously to remove her from her position</a>. Later releasing a statement, the board announced that “Blaze Radio firmly believes that Black Lives Matter.”

“The board gave Klein an opportunity to step down under her own will. As of the time of this statement, Klein has not made the decision to resign…In light of this, we do not recognize Rae'Lee Klein as the station manager of Blaze Radio.”  

Gilger has claimed that the University is not moving to remove Klein. In a statement to the New York Post, Gilger stated that Klein is not being targeted by the university for her views.

“Any actions that are unfolding are not punishment for a tweet. I have been clear with Rae’Lee that she would not be removed as station manager of Blaze Radio, a student internet radio station, because of the views she expressed,”  

However, in email exchanges between Klein and Gilger, she did in fact act to pressure Klein to resign, contrary to her statement.

In their exchange (pictured below) Gilger clearly states that Klein remaining in her position, “is not an option,” as she had lost the confidence of the board.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-909" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Screen-Shot-2020-09-30-at-5.18.44-PM.png" alt="" width="500" height="366" />

&nbsp;

Although suggesting new roles that Klein may assume, Gilger cites the "Media Guidelines for Student Journalists" to warn her to refrain in the future from posting information “that could call into question your ability to act independently as a journalist.” This seems to contradict Gilger’s claim that Klein was not being targeted by the university for her views.

&nbsp;

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-910" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Screen-Shot-2020-09-30-at-5.24.32-PM.png" alt="" width="317" height="500" /><img class="aligncenter wp-image-911 size-full" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Screen-Shot-2020-09-30-at-4.51.32-PM-1-e1601512111513.png" alt="" width="339" height="642" /><img class="aligncenter wp-image-912 size-full" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Screen-Shot-2020-09-30-at-5.27.15-PM.png" alt="" width="342" height="540" />

&nbsp;

At this time, Klein has refused to step down from her role, and officially remains the station’s manager.

Update: In February of 2021, Klein announced that she <a href="https://www.westernjournal.com/college-pays-settlement-conservative-student-ousted-manager-role/">has reached a settlement with Gilger</a> over a lawsuit she had filed against ASU several months prior.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
UPDATE: I am happy to announce we've reached a resolution with Arizona State University for events that took place in September. With the support of my attorney, Jack Wilenchik, and countless other individuals, I am proud to have stood up, fought back and eventually, won.

According to a <a href="https://newsroom.asu.edu/press/statement-latest-update-asu-and-klein-story-0">statement released by ASU</a>, the University agreed to pay Klein a total of $7,040 for "reimbursement of her school fees."

<a href="https://cisa.asu.edu/node/7955" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Asao Inoue</a> is a professor and Associate Dean of Academic Affairs, Equity and Inclusion in the College of Integrative Science and Arts at Arizona State University. According to his University biography, Inoue’s <a href="https://cisa.asu.edu/node/7955" target="_blank" rel="noopener">research</a> focuses on “antiracist and social justice theory and practices in writing assessments.”

Prior to his role at Arizona State, Inoue served as the Director of the Writing Center at the University of Washington-Tacoma. As Daily Caller <a href="https://dailycaller.com/2017/02/20/college-writing-center-declares-american-grammar-a-racist-unjust-language-structure/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">documents</a>, Inoue <a href="\&quot;https://stjenglish.com/standing-against-racism-in-the-field-of-writing-dr-asao-inoue-uw-tacoma/\&quot;" target="_blank" rel="noopener">commissioned</a> an anti-racist poster in an effort to ensure that his staff did not “embrace racist practices.” Inoue maintains that racism is embedded in the English language as well as in society itself, writing that “racism is the normal condition of things.

<img class="size-large wp-image-1502 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-08-10T135650.565-e1628629052457-1024x391.png" alt="" width="580" height="221" />

According to the text of the poster, recorded by The College Fix, Inoue writes that his goal is to <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/university-writing-center-combats-racist-unjust-language-structures/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">help students become more critical of “unjust language structures”</a> in order to succeed in what Inoue claims is a racist society.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1501 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-08-10T135356.265-e1628628890970-1024x296.png" alt="" width="580" height="168" />

Inoue would later author a book on his beliefs titled, “Labor-Based Grading Contracts: Building Equity and Inclusion in the Compassionate Writing Classroom.” In an excerpt from the book, Inoue declares that he focuses on grading students for their efforts, and not the “quality” of their writing.

“This book focuses on one kind of grading contract, one that calculates final course grades purely by the labor students complete, not by any judgments of the quality of their writing.”

As Daily Wire reports, Inoue writes that his <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/arizona-state-dean-grading-writing-based-on-quality-is-racist-promotes-white-language-supremacy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">beliefs and teaching practices are based on “critical-race theory,” or “labor-based theory.”</a>As Breitbart documents, c<a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2012/03/11/what-is-critical-race-theory/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ritical race theory is an intellectual branch of Marxism</a> that views America and all of its institutions as being infected with white supremacy.

He writes further that grading students only perpetuates white supremacy.

“The traditional purposes and methods used for grading writing turn out to be de facto racist and White supremacist….Grading by a standard, thus, is how White language supremacy is perpetuated in schools”

Inoue also draws an analogy between issuing grades for English and the institution of slavery, stating that grading is a “slave-making mechanism.”

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1504 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-2021-08-10T140031.897-e1628629269866-1024x317.png" alt="" width="580" height="180" />

Inoue believes that even the physical proximity of white people causes racism. In a YouTube video of Inoue speaking before the 2019 Convention of the National Council of Teachers of English, Inoue <a href="https://youtu.be/brPGTewcDYY?t=994" target="_blank" rel="noopener">states that even the presence of white people “perpetuates racism.</a>”

&nbsp;

[video width="854" height="480" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Inoue-ASU-Clip-1-.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

Inoue delivered this speech while <a href="https://cccc.ncte.org/cccc/about/chairs" target="_blank" rel="noopener">serving as the Conference Chair of the Conference on College Composition and Communication</a>, which bills itself as the <a href="https://cccc.ncte.org/cccc/about/chairs" target="_blank" rel="noopener">largest professional organization for researching and teaching writing composition</a>. It is the annual conference of the National Council of Teachers of English, which <a href="https://ncte.org/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">boasts over 25,000 English and Language Arts teachers as members all over the country</a>.

The Professor Watchlist Team reached out to Inoue for comment but has not received a response by the time of publication.

<a href="https://isearch.asu.edu/profile/597528" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Lorraine Moya Salas</a> is an Instructor in the <a href="https://socialwork.asu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">School of Social Work</a> at <a href="https://campus.asu.edu/dohttps://campus.asu.edu/downtown-phoenixwntown-phoenix" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Arizona State University - Downtown Phoenix</a>.

During a lecture in one of her courses—titled, “Foundations of Social Work”—Dr. Lorraine can be heard describing the United States as a “white supremacist system,” that was founded for the benefit of white people at the expense of Native Americans and people of color.

In the class—recorded and provided exclusively to the Professor Watchlist team by an anonymous source—Dr. Salas urges her students to confront the “implicit biases” present in themselves and American society. Claiming that stereotypes and prejudices construct implicit bias, she warns that unconscious actions can cause serious harm.

Attempting to provide an example to bolster her claim, Dr. Salas states that implicit bias causes doctors to act as if their black patients are slaves. She proceeds to cite a study that claims doctors give less pain medication to black patients as compared to white ones.

Dr. Salas alleges this is the product of the legacy of slavery; slave owners viewed blacks as subhuman and able to withstand a large amount of pain, so therefore doctors continue to believe that blacks can withstand a large amount of pain. Doctors will therefore prescribe black patients less pain medication.

[video width="1280" height="720" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Lorraine-Moya-Salas-Part-1_updated.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

Dr. Salas additionally cites a study that claims teachers will call on boys more often than girls in their classrooms. She claims this as proof that teachers think boys answer questions correctly more often than girls.

[video width="1280" height="720" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Lorraine-Moya-Salas-Part-1_2.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

Throughout the lecture, Dr. Salas alleges that numerous racial, ethnic, and gender disparities in society are a result of implicit bias. She urges her students, as future social workers, to confront their own implicit biases and assigns an “implicit bias test” for them to complete before the next class.

Dr. Salas additionally claims that institutional racism produces inequality and disparities, attributing it to the legacy of slavery in the Americas. Although acknowledging that all cultures practiced slavery, she claims that no slave trade was enforced along racial lines until the Europeans did so in order to specifically oppress people of color.

Citing slavery, the genocide of Native Americans and discriminatory, Jim Crow laws, Dr. Salas claims that  America was constructed as a “white supremacist culture” for the sole benefit of white people who have maintained their “white power structures” ever since.

[video width="1280" height="720" mp4="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Lorraine-Moya-Salas-Part-2_updated.mp4"][/video]

&nbsp;

In the accompanying slides, Dr. Salas cites Critical Race Theory to define white supremacy as a, “political or socio-economic system where white people enjoy structural advantage and rights that other racial and ethnic groups do not, both at a collective and an individual level”.

<img class="size-large wp-image-1692 aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/3b-SelfAwarenessAndRaceEthnitiy-student-copy.pptx-1024x576.jpg" alt="" width="580" height="326" />

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

<a href="https://search.asu.edu/profile/888543" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Katelyn Cooper</a> is an Assistant Professor and Program Director of Biology Education Research for Arizona State University’s  Center for Biology and Society Program . 

In 2019, Cooper founded the “<a href="https://katelyncooper1.wixsite.com/bioedlab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cooper Biology Education Research Lab</a>” because she, as a gay woman, was “worried about biology research not being inclusive enough of “LGBTQ+ people,” according to <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/inclusive-lab-for-lgbt-students-created-by-arizona-state-professor/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">College Fix. </a>

Cooper is “upset that heterosexual white [men] dominate the biological sciences.” She told <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/nbc-out-proud/professor-making-biology-education-inclusive-lgbtq-undergrads-rcna28813" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBC News</a> that “The goal isn’t just to make classrooms more inclusive, she explained, but to bring more diversity to a field that has traditionally been dominated by straight white men.” 

Cooper also told NBC News her hopes for collegiate science education: “Cooper said science educators can make their classrooms more inclusive by being openly supportive of LGBTQ students.” According to Cooper, “Educators can, for example, put an inclusivity statement on their syllabus or website, foster safe environments for students to reveal their LGBTQ identities and familiarize themselves with on-campus LGBTQ resources in case students come to them for support.”

<a href="http://www.breannefahs.com/">Breanne Fahs</a>, Professor of Women and Gender Studies at Arizona State University, believes women have been, more or less, brainwashed by "the patriarchy" and "sexism" to ignore the "liberatory, political, and social implications of fatness." Fahs, who holds a PhD in clinical psychology and women's studies from the University of Michigan, came to this conclusion after she conducted an experiment in which all 20 of her subjects "expressed terror at the thought of suddenly gaining 100 pounds."

<a href="https://search.asu.edu/profile/2193787" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Abby Loebenberg</a> is a Barrett Honors Faculty Fellow at Arizona State University. Her faculty profile says she “teaches a range of classes and seminars on urban spaces and landscape, architecture, cities, and…play and game studies.”

Loebenberg is one of 34 professors who signed a written statement addressed to Tara Williams, the Dean of ASU’s Barrett Honors College. The 5-page letter (pictured below) was a protest of the “Health, Wealth &amp; Happiness” talk featuring Charlie Kirk (Founder and CEO of Turning Point USA), Dennis Prager (Founder of PragerU), and Robert Kiyosaki (author of the personal finance book “Rich Dad Poor Dad”).

<a href="https://search.asu.edu/profile/291312" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rashad Shabazz</a> is an Associate Professor of African American Studies in the School of Social Transformation at Arizona State University (ASU). Shabazz’s university profile says his “academic expertise brings together human geography, black cultural studies, gender studies, and critical prison studies.” He also holds a Ph.D. in History of Consciousness from the University of California-Santa Cruz.

Shabazz teaches several race-based courses including “<a href="https://webapp4.asu.edu/bookstore/viewsyllabus/2227/88026">AFR301:</a> Race and Racism in the Black Diaspora.” The course description says, 

“Through slave rebellion in Haiti, black notions of freedom, black ideas of ‘being,’ and what on thinker calls ‘black reason,’ this class aims to show that race and racism is more than a tapestry of dominion, but…a reservoir of revolutionary ideas that…transform the world.”

In response to the killing of Tyre Nichols - a black man who was arrested and beaten and later died in the custody of black police officers - Shabazz <a href="https://theconversation.com/black-police-officers-arent-colorblind-theyre-infected-by-the-same-anti-black-bias-as-american-society-and-police-in-general-198721" target="_blank" rel="noopener">published an article</a> in The Conversation entitled, “Black police officers aren’t colorblind–they’re infected by the same anti-black bias as American society and police in general.”

In the article, Shabazz argued, “Policing in the U.S. has, from its inception, treated Black people as domestic enemies. From slave patrols…to the murder of George Floyd, and now the death of Nichols, law enforcement officers often have viewed black people as what…W.E.B. Du Bois called a ‘problem.’”

He continued, “It’s hard to investigate the minds of the officers who beat Nichols so savagely and say for sure what motivated them. But there is ample research that suggests anti-blackness is a factor in American policing. And black officers, agents of an institutionally racist system, are affected by this.”

The article goes on to say that McCall was the only African-American student to earn a doctorate in music education from ASU. McCall also reportedly said that she feels she can offer “an informed perspective based on experience and expertise” that can optimize K-12 learning experiences.

In July 2022, McCall was featured in a <a href="https://www.classicfm.com/discover-music/critical-race-theory-music-education/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Classic FM article</a> titled, “Music professor breaks down [CRT] and why it’s crucial for 21st-century music education.” McCall told the publication:

“‘[CRT] is a tool that was conceptualized and born out of critical legal studies as a means to analyze, critique and to help dismantle racism…Even though…we like to think of ourselves as being more progressive and more innovative…When you look at a university curriculum in America, it gives you a really nice snapshot of Western Europe.’”

She informs readers of her experiences as an “African American in music education…whose structures and social actors attempted to silence [her] voice.” Although McCall experienced notable success and received much encouragement throughout her pursuits, she wrote: 

“Despite my professors and peers at ASU ensuring me that I was in a safe place, I didn’t believe it because I knew that outside of ASU, society viewed my voice differently and that the profession did not want to hear what I had to say. These were my perceptions…”

In 2016, Sampson <a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/13613324.2020.1842346?scroll=top&amp;needAccess=true" target="_blank" rel="noopener">co-authored</a> “Engaging (or not) in coalition politics: a case study of Black and Latinx community advocacy toward educational equity.” In the abstract notes, Sampson et al. state: 
“We use ‘Latinx’ as a gender-neutral reference to the people of Latin-American heritage. To not negate gendered experiences, we use Latino/Latina, or Chicano/a when acknowledging individuals or past research identifying with these gendered identities … Although both ‘Black’ and ‘Latinx’ are politicized categories, we recognize the reality of the identities are diverse, intersecting, and fluid.”
In an article titled “Over 1,200 ‘Educators for Palestine’ Sign Open Letter Demanding Ceasefire,” <a href="https://truthout.org/articles/over-a-thousand-educators-for-palestine-sign-open-letter-demanding-ceasefire/#:~:text=Hundreds%20of%20academics%20from%20universities,has%20killed%20more%20than%2011%2C000" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Truthout</a> gave a biased account of a statement signed by several university professors, including Sampson. The statement was crafted after the October 7 Hamas attacks against Israel. 

Truthout said, “Hundreds of academics from universities and institutions of higher learning from … across North America have signed on to a joint letter, calling on their governments to demand Israeli ceasefire in Gaza … The signers, calling themselves ‘Educators for Palestine,’ are Palestinian academics and their allies who denounce Israel’s genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.”

The <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BA7ddNwiUF9ns3zJK3t-nrTpn8R4s3ZB_wbZstAo2iY/edit" target="_blank" rel="noopener">letter Sampson signed</a> states, in part:
“We have paid careful attention to consistent invocations of children in public officials’ responses to and media portrayals of the attack in Israel on October 7, which took 1400 lives. We mourn this loss of life, and we are also struck by the ways that this concern for children does not extend to the unspeakable number of Palestinian children’s lives taken by Israeli state violence, harmed by apartheid rule, and traumatized by intergenerational experiences of settler colonial dispossession for over [75] years.”

 “‘I wasn’t a good fit for the ‘SportsCenter’ culture. Definitely not a good fit for the management that was overseeing the ‘SportsCenter’ at the time. And I got tired. I got really tired of fighting everyday to be myself … It’s the conservative culture at ESPN and so this idea that ESPN is being run by flower children is just a lie. That’s not how it is. It’s the opposite, if anything … 
‘Once critics started seeing my face … then suddenly ESPN is too liberal because what they’re really trying to say is ‘Oh, y’all must be liberal-leaning because you got all these women and all these [b]lack people who are suddenly on my TV everyday.’”

<a href="https://search.asu.edu/profile/4399703" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shannon Portillo</a> is a Professor and the Director of the School of Public Affairs at Arizona State University. According to Portillo’s biography, “Her work helps scholars and practitioners understand how inequities are institutionalized in public organizations … [She also] served as co-chair of Kansas Governor Laura Kelly’s Commission on Racial Equity and Justice.”

Portillo’s <a href="https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=Kw7ABu8AAAAJ&amp;hl=en&amp;oi=ao" target="_blank" rel="noopener">published works</a> include topics such as “Social Equity,” “Law &amp; Society,” and “Street-Level Bureaucracy.” She co-authored a paper entitled “<a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1G6j6mAfv3ycBqEtPvz4qR70Tjk8GBjgH/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Advancing Social Equity in the Minnowbrook Tradition</a>,” which discussed the “goals of valuing social equity and using it as a guide in managing public programs.” 

In her work, Portillo refers to a meeting called Minnowbrook I that took place following the passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. According to the <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1G6j6mAfv3ycBqEtPvz4qR70Tjk8GBjgH/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Minnowbrook 50 Social Equity Manifesto</a>, “[A] group of public administration scholars met to reflect on the implications of the social and environmental circumstances for [their] discipline … [Their] call to action … focused on ways to intersect and integrate social equity in the research, teaching, and practice of public administration.”
In the <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1G6j6mAfv3ycBqEtPvz4qR70Tjk8GBjgH/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Minnowbrook paper,</a> Portillo et al. wrote:
“In 40 years since Minnowbrook I, the concern for social equity has grown to the point where it now occupies a firm place within the academy … However, despite its growth and general acceptance as a core area of research and concern, evidence of gross societal inequities in the United States and the global community abound.”
Portillo was featured in the <a href="https://news.ku.edu/news/article/2022/02/17/public-administration-should-consider-effects-whiteness-masculinity-well-representation" target="_blank" rel="noopener">KU News article</a> titled “Public administration should consider effects of whiteness, masculinity as well as presentation, researchers say,” where she offered her perspective on gender and racial discrimination in the industry.

Portillo states that during President Woodrow Wilson’s term, a push for segregation led to discrimination and the “normalization of white men in bureaucratic roles.” Any truth in this statement is neutralized by her contradictory claim that “[w]hite men have been in charge pretty much forever,” and, at the same time, “[w]e need more empirical evidence” to know whether white men in leadership have helped or harmed professional communities.

<a href="https://search.asu.edu/profile/4219914" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lydia HaRim Ahn</a> is an Assistant Professor in Counseling and Counseling Psychology at Arizona State University. According to her university profile, Ahn’s academic interests include the following:

“1) examining the detrimental effects of racism and oppression on marginalized communities with an emphasis on within group differences, 2) developmental protective and risk factors between racism and health outcomes with a focus on ethnic-racial socialization and parenting, and 3) enhancing positive psychological outcomes and change through psychotherapy, evidence-based videos, and prevention and intervention programming.” 
In February, Ahn and Thomas P. Le co-wrote an <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article</a> titled “Asian American Women’s Racial Dating Preferences: An Investigation of Internalized Racism, Resistance and Empowerment against Racism, and Desire for Status.” In the abstract for the article, the authors state their purpose for writing it: 
“To further understand racialized desire among this underrepresented population, the present study examined the extent to which three sociocultural factors (i.e., internalized racism, resistance and empowerment against racism, and desire for status) were associated with two attraction outcome variables (i.e., dating preferences, physical attraction) across four racial categories of men: Asian men, Black men, Latino men, and White men.” 
They claim the factors of “internalized racism, resistance and empowerment against racism, and desire for status” have caused Asian American women to have a “stronger dating preference toward White men and weaker dating preference and physical attraction to Asian men.”  

In a section of the article titled “Internalized Racism,” the authors address their research on male dating preferences based on race. Focusing on Asian American women, the authors state that the demographic faces “gendered racial microaggressions and model minority stereotypes that produce internalized racism.” They then focus on the differences between Asian and white men with regard to Asian women and dating: 
“Asian American women have reported a desire to date White men for the sake of economic security, as well as to assimilate into White American society, even if their White male partners engaged in racial fetishization of Asian women (Nemoto, <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9#ref-CR50" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2006</a>). This preference may promote stereotypes of Asian American men as undesirable and perpetually foreign (Wong &amp; McCullough, <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9#ref-CR69" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2021</a>) and Black and Latino men as inferior to white men (Cascalheira &amp; Smith, <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9#ref-CR4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2020</a>). Furthermore, Asian American women face gendered racism (Gamst et al., <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9#ref-CR15" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2023</a>), or experiences of discrimination that are based upon the intersections of their race and gender, which contributes to their disempowerment and negative self-worth within the United States (Ahn et al., <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9#ref-CR1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2022</a>).”
The authors conclude their study:
“Overall, our findings highlight how Asian American women’s romantic and intimate desires may be shaped by internalized racism, resistance and empowerment, and desire for social status. Asian American women face gendered racial microaggressions and model minority stereotypes that produce internalized racism (Ahn et al., <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9#ref-CR1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2022</a>; Juang et al., <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9#ref-CR26" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2018</a>; Wei et al., <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-024-01450-9#ref-CR68" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2008</a>).”

Lober also serves as the director of ASU’s Academy of Lactation Programs and the clinical research director at Banner University Medical Center–Phoenix.

During an ASU presentation in March 2023, Lober pointed out that part of the Lactation Programs vision is to “normalize breastfeeding and human milk feeding as an act of social justice and health promotion.”

According to The Fix, “Lober opened the one-hour moderated discussion by stating she ‘got into this space because the United States hates women and everything the female body does.’” 

The School Board Watchlist did not uncover the original audio from the event. However, <a href="https://www.liveaction.org/news/cannibalism-forced-breeding-professors-fearmonger-abortion/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Live Action </a>pointed out:
“Lober also argued that she is discouraging her children from having children, and said the decline in birth rates is a good thing—because the planet is overpopulated. Yet, ironically, the ASU <a href="https://asuevents.asu.edu/event/jenny-irishs-hatch-speculative-future-reproductive-rights?eventDate=2024-08-28&amp;id=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">events page</a> states that Lober’s ‘research is focused on establishing lactation and breastfeeding as a public health imperative’ and that she ‘is dedicated to working for a better world for families’...How, exactly does not create a better world for families or better health for children by encouraging abortion?”
Conservative lawyer and journalist, Jonathan Turley, <a href="https://jonathanturley.org/2024/09/01/the-united-states-hates-women-asu-event-offers-dystopian-anti-capitalist-vision-of-america/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">mentioned</a> Lober in an article titled “‘The United States Hates Women’: ASU Event Offer Dystopian, Anti-Capitalist Vision of America.” Reflecting on Lober’s resolution for a future America without abortion, Turley said she called for the audience “to help ‘dismantle capitalism’ and ‘elect a female president.’”

Since the event, Lober has not commented publicly on her role in the conversation with Irish. Based on mainstream media reactions, both professors are committed to espousing anti-American and anti-family values.

The KJZZ host asked Irish to comment on her “associations” with the King novel “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Carrie-Stephen-King/dp/1984898108/ref=asc_df_1984898108/?tag=hyprod-20&amp;linkCode=df0&amp;hvadid=692875362841&amp;hvpos=&amp;hvnetw=g&amp;hvrand=14364719003284224040&amp;hvpone=&amp;hvptwo=&amp;hvqmt=&amp;hvdev=c&amp;hvdvcmdl=&amp;hvlocint=&amp;hvlocphy=9061155&amp;hvtargid=pla-2281435178818&amp;psc=1&amp;mcid=d9f4354e402c38979d3d64dbfc2a5893&amp;hvocijid=14364719003284224040-1984898108-&amp;hvexpln=73" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Carrie</a>”—the story of a high school outcast with telekinetic powers who eventually murders her bullying classmates by setting the town on fire. 

Irish responded to the interviewer stating:
“‘Carrie’ is amazing in the fact that [it] was written 50 years ago, but there’s so much about it that feels pretty tragically contemporary. If Carrie White had had access to a decent sex ed class, the town of Chamberlain, Maine, would still be standing…[I]t’s not hard to think about that in the midst I feel of our current kind of sociopolitical moment, where there’s such an assault on bodily autonomy and considerations of the rights of people to define their own identity and their own bodies and their relationships to them.”
On August 30, 2024, Irish was featured in The College Fix <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/u-s-hates-women-faces-future-of-cannibalism-forced-breeding-camps-asu-event/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article</a> entitled “U.S. ‘hates women,’ faces future of cannibalism, ‘forced breeding campus’: ASU event.” In <a href="https://lincolncenter.asu.edu/wb-workshop-HATCH" target="_blank" rel="noopener">partnership</a> with ASU Professor <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/angelalober" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Angela Lober</a>, Irish <a href="https://asuevents.asu.edu/event/jenny-irishs-hatch-speculative-future-reproductive-rights?eventDate=2024-08-28&amp;id=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hosted an event</a> centered on releasing her new book “<a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/Hatch/9sHtEAAAQBAJ?hl=en&amp;gbpv=1&amp;printsec=frontcover">Hatch</a>,” a collection of prose poems exploring the future of the human race surviving through AI.

According to <a href="https://nupress.northwestern.edu/9780810146969/hatch/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Northwestern University Press</a>:
“The prose poems in Jenny Irish’s newest collection, Hatch, trace the consciousness of an artificial womb that must confront the role she has played in the continuation of the dying of the human species. This apocalyptic vision engages with the most pressing concerns of this contemporary sociopolitical moment: reproductive rights, climate crises, and mass extinction; gender and racial bias in healthcare technology…and the possibilities and dangers of artificial intelligence.”
In the following excerpt, Irish appears to describe an abortion from the artificial womb’s perspective.

The Professor Watchlist did not recover any original video of the “Hatch” presentation.

He teaches courses focused on philosophy, morality, and religion. As a Christian in a secular institution, Dr. Anderson has been subjected to discrimination and exclusion by the college. 

On September 20, 2024, <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/christian-professors-intro-to-christianity-class-torpedoed-at-asu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The College Fix featured</a> Anderson in an article titled “Christian professor’s ‘Intro to Christianity’ class torpedoed at ASU.” Quoting Dr. Anderson’s phone interview, the Fix wrote:
“If a class does not have a general education designation, most students won’t enroll and his college will be hesitant to offer it because it won’t attract many students.” 
Dr. Anderson’s Intro to Christianity class was canceled because he said ASU “[doesn’t] want it taught from a Christian perspective.” He provided The Fix with a member from ASU <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/juliasarreal" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Associate Professor Julia Sarreal</a> who said, “The syllabus reflects a Christian way of teaching Christianity, which is to say the course does not adequately provide the kids of critical, reflective, disciplinary skills that students need.”

Dr. Anderson’s rebuttal to Sarreal’s and other’s concerns about the course can be read <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ONMoLSpqoWzMlY84nc4fThVk7RKCCNPHZZwnJKUPnS8/edit">here</a>.

In an <a href="https://www.tpusa.com/live/asus-dr-owen-anderson-warns-of-new-policies-threatening-academic-freedom">interview with Turning Point USA</a>, Dr. Anderson stated that he, and his colleagues, were asked to “decolonize” their course syllabi. He described decolonization according to ASU’s definition:
“Decolonize means you become aware of any Western, and especially Christian, influences in your syllabus, and you replace those with what they would call ‘Indigenous people’s perspectives.’ Decolonizing comes out of a communist philosophy…It’s a political philosophy that’s being adopted by ASU to push on the students.”
During the interview, Dr. Anderson also said since he teaches world religions and philosophies, he believes his courses are culturally diverse, therefore, his lesson plans don’t need to be revised.

On March 19, 2024, Dr. Anderson <a href="https://www.goldwaterinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Complaint-Final-with-exhibits.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">filed a complaint</a> with the Arizona Board of Regents after ASU mandated diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) training for faculty and staff members. In <a href="https://www.goldwaterinstitute.org/case/dismantling-asus-discriminatory-dei-regime/">partnership</a> with the Goldwater Institute, he brought the lawsuit to prohibit the college from using race, ethnicity, or sex—which goes against state and federal laws—to hire and retain employees.

In a June 18 <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/2024/06/my-university-required-dei-training-im-suing/">opinion editorial</a> titled “My University Required DEI Training. I’m Suing,” Dr. Anderson wrote:
“I’m in favor of each of those terms: Diversity…equity…and inclusion…are undoubtedly good things. But when I began the mandatory training, I found something troubling: It engaged in race blaming, warning of the supposed ‘problem’ of whiteness and encouraged judgment of people based on their skin color. I could not, in good conscience, continue such racist training.”
Dr. Anderson <a href="https://www.tpusa.com/live/asus-dr-owen-anderson-warns-of-new-policies-threatening-academic-freedom" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> TPUSA that he believes these cultural shifts occurred as a result of ASU’s evolving definition of “multiculturalism,” which he also said, “caused respect for Christians to deteriorate on campus.”

<a href="https://search.asu.edu/profile/1429800" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Julia Sarreal</a> is a Professor in the School of Humanities, Arts and Cultural Studies at Arizona State University. Sarreal’s research interests include Latin American Studies, Food, Drugs, and Capitalism. Her top area of expertise is “Consumerism.”

On September 20, 2024, Sarreal was featured in The College Fix <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/christian-professors-intro-to-christianity-class-torpedoed-at-asu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article</a> titled “Christian professor’s ‘Intro to Christianity’ class torpedoed at ASU.” The piece covers the cancelation of <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/drowenanderson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Professor Dr. Owen Anderson’s</a> religious studies course. 

After the college rejected his class, it was revealed that Sarreal objected to the premise of Christianity being taught on campus. The Fix recorded her comments:

“The <a href="https://www.scribd.com/document/771107095/REL-270-Introduction-to-Christianity-ASU-Dr-Owen-Anderson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">syllabus</a> reflects a Christian way of teaching Christianity, which is to say the course does not adequately provide the kinds of critical, reflective, disciplinary skills that students need to have in order to study religious traditions.”

“Furthermore, the focus on ‘Western Civilization’ is problematic. It is true that Christianity has been ‘influential’ in European history, it has also been deeply influential elsewhere in ways that are completely ignored in the syllabus.” 

Based on the feedback Sarreal received from Dr. Anderson, it appears she either did not read the syllabus or chose to interpret the lesson plans through an objectionable lens. Sarreal specifically described one of the modules as being “focused on ‘the’ biblical worldview” and called this a “fraught oversimplification.”

Profile in progress. Please check back.

<a href="https://search.asu.edu/profile/3924315" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ruben Espinosa</a> is Professor of English and Director of the Arizona Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies at Arizona State University (ASU). According to his faculty profile, Espinosa’s studies are chiefly focused on the work of William Shakespeare. 

On September 16, 2024, ASU’s <a href="https://humanitiesinstitute.asu.edu/events" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Humanities Institute</a> hosted a panel with Espinosa and Professor Curtis Austin on cultural appropriation concerning the plays of Shakespeare. The <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/arizona-state-u-scholars-condemn-white-ownership-of-shakespeare/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">event</a> is described by the university as such: 
“What constitutes cultural appropriation, and when is it unethical? Should we adopt voices beyond our own, and if so then what factors must be weighed beforehand?”
“Pressing on hard research questions may lead to ethical dilemmas of how to speak in relation to another. This panel will discuss what it means to think, research, and write across cultures and ways of being.”  
In an audio recording of a l<a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/arizona-state-u-scholars-condemn-white-ownership-of-shakespeare/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ecture</a> obtained by the College Fix, Espinosa connected the alleged “white exceptionalism” of January 6 rioters U.S. Capitol protesters to Shakespeare. These two are both claimed to be symbols of “white exceptionalism” and “racial hierarchy.” The professor stated:

“It kind of has this origin in anti-immigrant sentiments, right, all the way to January 6th, when we think about that white exceptionalism, and this notion of a kind of white ownership of Shakespeare.”
Espinosa believes that “Shakespeare is the epitome or the marker of white exceptionalism” and sits at the top of the “racial hierarchy.” Thereby, he attached the poet to “whiteness” exclusively over humanity independent of race. 

In 2021, Espinosa published a book titled “<a href="https://www.routledge.com/Shakespeare-on-the-Shades-of-Racism/Espinosa/p/book/9780367183004">Shakespeare on the Shades of Racism</a>.” The publisher’s description states:
“Shakespeare on the Shades of Racism examines Shakespeare in relation to ongoing conversations that interrogate the vulnerability of Black and brown people amid oppressive structures that aim to devalue their worth. By focusing on the way these individuals are racialized, politicized, policed, and often violated in our contemporary world, it casts light on dimensions of Shakespeare’s work that afford us a better understanding of our ethical responsibilities in the face of such brutal racism.”

<a href="https://www.fandm.edu/directory/firuzeh-shokooh-valle.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Firuzeh Shokooh Valle</a> is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at Franklin &amp; Marshall College. According to her university profile, Valle “is a feminist sociologist and journalist from Puerto Rico. Her research examines how global development policy and discourse frames the relationships between gender, technology, and science, and the ways in which feminist digital activists mobilize around these issues in Latin America and other regions of the global South. Her work is located within a southern political geography that is in contention with the legacy, and persistence, of colonialism.”
Valle was one of 125 Franklin &amp; Marshall faculty members who jointly signed a <a href="https://yaf.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Letter20of20Solidarity20Final.pdf.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">letter</a> to “denounce the [university’s] choice to invite transphobic speaker Paula Scanlan to our campus on March 27, in close proximity to Transgender Day of Visibility.”
Paula Scanlan was a teammate of “transgender” swimmer Lia Thomas, previously William Thomas, who swam on the women’s team at the University of Pennsylvania. Scanlan has <a href="https://rumble.com/v2sno54-the-university-wanted-us-to-be-quiet-lia-thomas-teammate-speaks-out-to-matt.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">expressed</a> that she was uncomfortable with Thomas being a member of the team due to his gender and felt her female teammates were overlooked in favor of Thomas’s greater strength and athleticism. 
Scanlan embarked on a lecture tour in partnership with Young America’s Foundation during the Spring 2024 semester to discuss her college swim experience at universities across the country. Her lecture was titled “Biological Men Should Not Compete in Women’s Sports.”
The faculty who wrote the letter state that Scanlan “is working with a well-funded, far-right ‘culture war’ machine that seeks to sow division, provoke backlash, generate publicity, and weaken public confidence in higher education.”
The writers further claim that Scanlan is “transphobic” because of her statements about Thomas. They say Scanlan has “refused to acknowledge the identity of the trans community:” 
“In videos of her campus visits available online, we have seen Scanlan disrespect, misgender, and mock trans people. Scanlan also has a history of (a) invoking the unsubstantiated idea that the presence of transgender women creates a threat of sexual violence to cisgender women, and (b) making direct reference to the physical appearance of Lia Thomas’s genitalia.”
Towards the end of their letter, the professors state their supposed commitment to free speech, no matter how disagreeable that speech may be to them. Yet, they are against the university inviting “speakers to campus whose demonstrated aim is to demean, devalue, and threaten the lives of our friends, family, and community members.” 
They conclude the letter with the following statements in affirmation of the “transgender community:”
“We believe that our role as a college community must include speaking out against such dehumanization. To the queer, trans, and nonbinary members of our community: you have allies on this campus who value and support you. We are committed to fighting alongside you. To President Altmann and the F&amp;M administration: we call on you to make a strong, unequivocal statement of care and support on behalf of all of our LGBTQ+ students, colleagues, and community members.”

The authors put forth the following goal to resolve what they deem to be the lessening of diversity and equity caused by COVID-19:
“For starters, every institution must acknowledge the problem and openly address what can appear invisible and ignored to those of us living in this reality. The academy risks emerging from this pandemic with less diversity and gender equity than before unless we change course. The first step is initiating a conversation and listening. Once people have a space to talk openly about their challenges, a lot of problem solving and solutions naturally emerge.”\

Scanlan has <a href="https://rumble.com/v2sno54-the-university-wanted-us-to-be-quiet-lia-thomas-teammate-speaks-out-to-matt.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">expressed</a> that she was uncomfortable with Thomas being a member of the team due to his gender and felt her female teammates were overlooked in favor of Thomas’s greater strength and athleticism. 

Scanlan embarked on a lecture tour in partnership with Young America’s Foundation during the Spring 2024 semester to discuss her college swim experience at universities across the country. Her lecture was titled “Biological Men Should Not Compete in Women’s Sports.”

The faculty who wrote the letter state that Scanlan “is working with a well-funded, far-right ‘culture war’ machine that seeks to sow division, provoke backlash, generate publicity, and weaken public confidence in higher education.”

The writers further claim that Scanlan is “transphobic” because of her statements about Thomas. They say Scanlan has “refused to acknowledge the identity of the trans community:” 
“In videos of her campus visits available online, we have seen Scanlan disrespect, misgender, and mock trans people. Scanlan also has a history of (a) invoking the unsubstantiated idea that the presence of transgender women creates a threat of sexual violence to cisgender women, and (b) making direct reference to the physical appearance of Lia Thomas’s genitalia.”
Towards the end of their letter, the professors state their supposed commitment to free speech, no matter how disagreeable that speech may be to them. Yet, they are against the university inviting “speakers to campus whose demonstrated aim is to demean, devalue, and threaten the lives of our friends, family, and community members.” 

They conclude the letter with the following statements in affirmation of the “transgender community:”
“We believe that our role as a college community must include speaking out against such dehumanization. To the queer, trans, and nonbinary members of our community: you have allies on this campus who value and support you. We are committed to fighting alongside you. To President Altmann and the F&amp;M administration: we call on you to make a strong, unequivocal statement of care and support on behalf of all of our LGBTQ+ students, colleagues, and community members.”

Scanlan has <a href="https://rumble.com/v2sno54-the-university-wanted-us-to-be-quiet-lia-thomas-teammate-speaks-out-to-matt.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">expressed</a> that she was uncomfortable with Thomas being a member of the team due to his gender and felt her female teammates were overlooked in favor of Thomas’s greater strength and athleticism. 

Scanlan embarked on a lecture tour in partnership with Young America’s Foundation during the Spring 2024 semester to discuss her college swim experience at universities across the country. Her lecture was titled “Biological Men Should Not Compete in Women’s Sports.”

The faculty who wrote the letter state that Scanlan “is working with a well-funded, far-right ‘culture war’ machine that seeks to sow division, provoke backlash, generate publicity, and weaken public confidence in higher education.”

The writers further claim that Scanlan is “transphobic” because of her statements about Thomas. They say Scanlan has “refused to acknowledge the identity of the trans community:” 
“In videos of her campus visits available online, we have seen Scanlan disrespect, misgender, and mock trans people. Scanlan also has a history of (a) invoking the unsubstantiated idea that the presence of transgender women creates a threat of sexual violence to cisgender women, and (b) making direct reference to the physical appearance of Lia Thomas’s genitalia.”
Towards the end of their letter, the professors state their supposed commitment to free speech, no matter how disagreeable that speech may be to them. Yet, they are against the university inviting “speakers to campus whose demonstrated aim is to demean, devalue, and threaten the lives of our friends, family, and community members.” 

They conclude the letter with the following statements in affirmation of the “transgender community:”
“We believe that our role as a college community must include speaking out against such dehumanization. To the queer, trans, and nonbinary members of our community: you have allies on this campus who value and support you. We are committed to fighting alongside you. To President Altmann and the F&amp;M administration: we call on you to make a strong, unequivocal statement of care and support on behalf of all of our LGBTQ+ students, colleagues, and community members.”

Scanlan also has a history of (a) invoking the unsubstantiated idea that the presence of transgender women creates a threat of sexual violence to cisgender women, and (b) making direct reference to the physical appearance of Lia Thomas’s genitalia.”
Towards the end of their letter, the professors state their supposed commitment to free speech, no matter how disagreeable that speech may be to them. Yet, they are against the university inviting “speakers to campus whose demonstrated aim is to demean, devalue, and threaten the lives of our friends, family, and community members.” 

They conclude the letter with the following statements in affirmation of the “transgender community:”
“We believe that our role as a college community must include speaking out against such dehumanization. To the queer, trans, and nonbinary members of our community: you have allies on this campus who value and support you. We are committed to fighting alongside you. To President Altmann and the F&amp;M administration: we call on you to make a strong, unequivocal statement of care and support on behalf of all of our LGBTQ+ students, colleagues, and community members.”

<a href="https://www.fandm.edu/directory/elspeth-wilson.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Elspeth M. Wilson</a> is an Assistant Professor of Government at Franklin &amp; Marshall University. According to her faculty profile, Wilson’s “scholarship focuses on U.S. citizenship, civil rights, constitutional interpretation, and American political development. She is particularly interested in the problem of civic inequality in the United States and its connection to immigration policy and reproductive law. Her current book project, based on her dissertation (“The Reproduction of Citizenship”), examines how laws and judicial decisions targeting the intimate lives of Americans have shaped hierarchies in U.S. citizenship—particularly involving gender, race, class, religion, and sexuality—throughout the twentieth century.”  

Wilson was one of 125 Franklin &amp; Marshall faculty members who jointly signed a <a href="https://yaf.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Letter20of20Solidarity20Final.pdf.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">letter</a> to “denounce the [university’s] choice to invite transphobic speaker Paula Scanlan to our campus on March 27, in close proximity to Transgender Day of Visibility.”

Paula Scanlan was a teammate of “transgender” swimmer Lia Thomas, previously William Thomas, who swam on the women’s team at the University of Pennsylvania. Scanlan has <a href="https://rumble.com/v2sno54-the-university-wanted-us-to-be-quiet-lia-thomas-teammate-speaks-out-to-matt.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">expressed</a> that she was uncomfortable with Thomas being a member of the team due to his gender and felt her female teammates were overlooked in favor of Thomas’s greater strength and athleticism. 

Scanlan embarked on a lecture tour in partnership with Young America’s Foundation during the Spring 2024 semester to discuss her college swim experience at universities across the country. Her lecture was titled “Biological Men Should Not Compete in Women’s Sports.”

The faculty who wrote the letter state that Scanlan “is working with a well-funded, far-right ‘culture war’ machine that seeks to sow division, provoke backlash, generate publicity, and weaken public confidence in higher education.”

The writers further claim that Scanlan is “transphobic” because of her statements about Thomas. They say Scanlan has “refused to acknowledge the identity of the trans community:” 
“In videos of her campus visits available online, we have seen Scanlan disrespect, misgender, and mock trans people.

<a href="https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/sogie/sogie-team/tishelman/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Amy Tishelman</a> is an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School (HMS). She’s also the Director of Clinical Research in the Behavioral Health, Endocrinology and Urology Program, and Gender Multispecialty Service at Boston Children’s Hospital.
Tishelman’s HMS profile says she was “selected by the World Association of Transgender Health (WPATH) to be the international lead developing new global standards of care for prepubescent children.”
Tishelman, along with several “transgender specialists,” authored WPATH’s “<a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/26895269.2022.2100644" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Standards of Care for the Health of Transgender and Gender Diverse People, Version 8</a>.” The publication was intended to “provide clinical guidelines for health professionals to assist transsexual, transgender and gender nonconforming people with safe and effective pathways to achieving lasting personal comfort…”
Addressing gender identity in minor patients, Tishelman et al., stated:
“Our understanding of gender identity development in adolescence is continuing to evolve…For some youth, gender identity development appears fixed and is often expressed from a young age, while for others there may be a developmental process that contributes to gender identity development over time.”
The authors’ “Statement of Recommendation”  for healthcare professionals includes:
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“&#8230;possess a general knowledge of gender diversity across the lifespan.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">…develop expertise in autism spectrum disorders and other neurodiversity or collaborate with an expert with relevant expertise when working with autistic/neurodivergent, gender-diverse children.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">&#8230;respond supportively to children who desire to be acknowledged as the gender that matches their internal sense of gender identity.”</li>
</ul>
According to Tishelman et al., “At present, no clinical cohort studies have reported on profiles of adolescents who regret their initial decision or detransition after irreversible affirming treatment.”
Tishelman was a panel speaker during WPATH’s <a href="https://www.wpath.org/media/cms/Upcoming%20Conferences/2022/WPATH%202022%20Prospectus%20Final.pdf?_t=1649279057" target="_blank" rel="noopener">27th Scientific Symposium</a> in September 2022. WPATH’s stated goal is to work to “further the understanding of the range of interventions, modalities, medical and surgical gender-affirming treatments” while providing “opportunities for professionals to…communicate with each other in the context of research and treatment of gender incongruence…”
A portion of Tishelman’s Symposium presentation—where she admitted to manipulating age restriction information to avoid industry lawsuits— was leaked to social media:

<a href="https://www.gse.harvard.edu/directory/faculty/danielle-allen" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Danielle Allen</a> is a Professor of Government at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. Allen’s profile says “she is Founder and President for Partners In Democracy, where she continues to advocate for democracy reform to create greater voice and access in our democracy and drive progress towards a new social contract that serves and includes us all.”

In 2016, The Washington Post <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/moment-of-truth-we-must-stop-trump/2016/02/21/0172e788-d8a7-11e5-925f-1d10062cc82d_story.html">published an opinion editorial</a> authored by Allen. She titled the piece “The Moment of Truth: We Must Stop Trump.” She starts the article by stating:
“Like any number of us raised in the late 20th century, I have spent my life perplexed about exactly how Hitler could have come to power in Germany. Watching Donald Trump’s rise, I now understand. Leave aside whether a direct comparison of Trump to Hitler is accurate. That is not my point. My point rather is about how a demagogic opportunist can exploit a divided country.”
She further parallels former President Trump and Hitler, writing:
“To understand the rise of Hitler and the spread of Nazism, I have generally relied on the German-Jewish  émigré philosopher <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0142437565/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0142437565&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=thewaspos09-20&amp;linkId=PQAKLU5NRJOETRXB%22%3EThe%20Portable%20Hannah%20Arendt%20(Penguin%20Classics)%3C/a%3E%3Cimg%20src=%22http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=thewaspos09-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=0142437565" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hannah Arendt</a> and her arguments about the banality of evil. Somehow people can understand themselves as ‘just doing their job,’ yet act as cogs in the wheel of a murderous machine.”

Allen was <a href="https://www.browndailyherald.com/article/2024/03/harvard-kennedy-professor-danielle-allen-discusses-justice-democracy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">featured in an article</a> in The Brown Daily Herald wherein the author covered a speaking engagement connected to the release of Allen’s book “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Justice-Means-Democracy-Danielle-Allen-ebook/dp/B0BVC2FX2S/ref=sr_1_1?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.VqxGd4owAqzRflOXiBODXN17y4JJUJ1SVHYoRKSEDi6q-l886siA49NkC9H1kQpqVTCFXCSP_tdMncZOaeI8qZRoOQSHNELNFHZcBBT7HIHiT1vCs5-ECUpnUkPX8MrgUwMYyWF99EapLhAECkgLZTSghDVrj8oaZbf6drUcWGl3zoSJputR0fYZybjA7eJTxgZ6VHZUCs4sELHMdEbmsJXcA3rlY8ymu77DAiOkKPg.jTBse05m42CEISz-twypjIyY7S93TNNoT9Q_KLXmonU&amp;dib_tag=se&amp;gad_source=1&amp;hvadid=693980244929&amp;hvdev=c&amp;hvexpln=67&amp;hvlocphy=9061155&amp;hvnetw=g&amp;hvocijid=15248354058227898116--&amp;hvqmt=e&amp;hvrand=15248354058227898116&amp;hvtargid=kwd-1965987004000&amp;hydadcr=22158_13517514&amp;keywords=justice+by+means+of+democracy&amp;qid=1722025745&amp;sr=8-1&amp;asin=B0BVC2FX2S&amp;revisionId=f2ca3fa9&amp;format=1&amp;depth=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Justice by Means of Democracy</a>.” The writer said, “Allen argued that American democracy has prioritized negative liberties over positive ones for too long, resulting in those with power ‘not listening to the people who are affected by policies’ being enacted.”

In the book, Allen asked, “What is the relationship between political economy, political philosophy, and a theory of justice?” She then states:
“As economic theorists from <a href="https://www.britannica.com/biography/Adam-Smith/The-Theory-of-Moral-Sentiments" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Adam Smith</a> to <a href="https://www.britannica.com/biography/Karl-Marx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Karl Marx</a> to <a href="https://www.britannica.com/money/John-Maynard-Keynes" target="_blank" rel="noopener">John Maynard Keynes</a> to <a href="https://www.britannica.com/money/F-A-Hayek" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Friedrich Hayek</a> have recognized, any given economic system is built out of a set of underlying rules of human interaction … All recognized that the rules of the game structuring human interaction and those generating particular forms of economy embodied distinctive sets of social ideals and could be redesigned.” 
She also <a href="https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2024/4/26/allen-permissible-free-speech/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote an article</a> contrasting “academic freedom” with “free expression.” She said, “Harvard’s values statement contains two guidelines that help distinguish between good and bad speech … Scholarly standards and longstanding norms from the art of rhetoric make concrete how to live by these values.”

The following chart was included under the heading Speech Distinctions — Regime, Quality, Permissibility.

<a href="https://divinity.wfu.edu/academics/faculty/jonathan-l-walton/">Dr. Jonathan L. Walton</a>, Dean of the School of Divinity at Wake Forest University and formerly of Harvard University, called the NRA a "domestic terrorist organization". In a sermon on campus after the Las Vegas mass shooting, Walton, who has a Ph.D. in religion and society from Princeton, blamed "Our cultural anxiety, toxic masculinity, and racial, religious, and ethnic bigotries [for] eating away at the soul of this nation," Walton later calls President Donald Trump a "Madman" who "embodies the worst aspects of our country's cultural disease."

<a href="https://hls.harvard.edu/faculty/mark-tushnet/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mark Tushnet</a> is a Professor of Law at Harvard Law School. According to Tushnet’s faculty profile his research interest “includes students of constitutional review in the United States and around the world and the creation of other ‘institutions for protecting constitutional democracy.’”

In May 2016, the <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/may/10/harvard-professor-start-treating-christians-nazis/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Washington Times</a> featured Tushnet in an article titled “Harvard professor: Start treating Christian conservatives like Nazis.” The Times said: 
“Mr. Tushnet said liberals should stop being so hesitant to advance their agenda through the judiciary, saying a majority of federal judges have been appointed by Democrat presidents, and they need not worry ‘reversal by the Supreme Court now that former Associate Justice Antonin Scalia is dead.”
Tushnet wrote a <a href="https://balkin.blogspot.com/2016/05/abandoning-defensive-crouch-liberal.html">blog post</a> that same year where he challenged readers to “abandon defensive-crouch liberalism” and to “aggressively exploit the ambiguities and loopholes in unfavorable precedents that aren’t worth overruling.” 

<img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-3140" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/PWL-QUOTES-1-e1694464755411-1024x680.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="425" />

On August 1, 2023, <a href="https://campusreform.org/article?id=23715" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Campus Reform reported</a> that Tushnet sent an open letter to the Biden Administration wherein he “labeled the [SCOTUS] conservative majority as ‘MAGA justices,’ implying the judges have a political relationship to former President Donald Trump…”

Campus Reform noted how Tushnet “used the recent ruling on affirmative action as an example and proposed that Biden could emphasize that the ruling applies only to certain college institutions, while still vigorously pursuing affirmative action in other contexts…”

<a href="https://balkin.blogspot.com/2023/07/an-open-letter-to-biden-administration.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In the letter</a>, Tushnet states: 
“We do not believe that President Biden should simply ignore every MAGA ruling. The President should act when MAGA justices issue high-stakes rulings that are based on gravely mistaken constitutional interpretations…Such actions could help contain the grave threat posed by MAGA justices.”
He continues:
“In this particular historical moment, MAGA justices pose a grave threat to our most fundamental commitments because they rule consistently to undermine democracy and to curtail fundamental rights, and because many of their rulings are based on misleading and untrue claims.”

Dr. Michelle Morse is an internal medicine and public health doctor who, according to her <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/michelle-morse-251a0ba1/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LinkedIn</a> biography, “works to achieve health equity through global solidarity, social medicine and anti-racism education, and activism.” Her <a href="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">faculty biography</a> describes her position as “an assistant professor at Harvard Medical School/Brigham and Women's Hospital and co-founder of the EqualHealth and Social Medicine Consortium.”

Morse has several, notable publications, including “<a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33640157/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Reparations for Black American descendants of persons enslaved in the U.S. and their potential impact on SARS-CoV-2 transmission,</a>” and “<a href="https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama-health-forum/fullarticle/2789583" target="_blank" rel="noopener">How to Act Upon Racism- not Race- as a Risk Factor</a>.” The former publication, regarding reparations, made the claim that the United States should pursue racial-justice interventions, including reparations payments, to ameliorate racial disparities that originated through COVID-19.

According to a report by <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/article?id=23630" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Campus Reform</a>, Morse was featured as a keynote speaker for a medical residency graduation ceremony. <a href="https://onebrooklynhealth.org/about-us" target="_blank" rel="noopener">One Brooklyn Health</a>, a New York-based network of hospitals, held its ceremony on June 7, 2023, that included Dr. Michelle Morse as the keynote speaker for the second consecutive year.

Morse began her speech by mentioning contributors to what she called “scary times,” including:

“Misinformation about what is contained in COVID vaccines, misinformation about the ways public school teachers instruct students about our country’s violent founding and enslavement, settler colonialism, patriarchy, structural racism, or what really happened on January 6.”

She recalled her experiences during the AIDS epidemic and how it motivated her to become an “even more radicalized student activist,” and that she returned to the United States to “do more direct activism for social justice during residency.” Within the speech, she also asserted that “the current state of our country is unfair and unjust towards people of color, period.”

After the speech, a graduate attendee shared some thoughts with a Campus Reform reporter, saying that many students are discontent with the rise of woke ideology in the medical field, but are afraid to speak up because they feel as though they are “slaves to debt,” and cannot afford to risk losing their jobs by speaking out.

<a href="https://ghsm.hms.harvard.edu/faculty-staff/michelle-evelyn-morse">Michelle Evelyn Morse</a>, M.D. is a Instructor of Medicine and an Affiliate in the Department of Global Health and Social Medicine at Harvard University.  She is also co-founder of the <a href="http://www.socialmedicineconsortium.org/campaign-against-racism/">Campaign Against Racism</a>, which describes itself as an organization that seeks to “dismantle structural racism and its effects on health around the world.”

In an interview with <a href="https://www.pri.org/stories/2020-06-02/health-care-part-systems-oppression-says-harvard-medicine-professor">The World</a>, Morse outlined what she believes is structural oppression in the healthcare field. She explained how the Coronavirus is exposing divides caused by racism:

“And I think what we're seeing with the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on communities of color is that these are the fault lines that have existed for generations. And the sources are the very social arrangement that puts white people on top and black and brown people on the bottom.” 

 Morse has admitted that the long-term goal of her organization is to destroy capitalism, saying, “...the systems of racial capitalism and structural racism that we're trying to impact and upend and break down are going to take much, much longer” 

Morse is also very candid about utilizing the coronavirus pandemic to accomplish her organization’s ambitions of fundamentally transforming the country: 

“We have to seize on this moment. We have to make sure that health workers are not just assumed to be the heroes of COVID-19, that we actually do the work of upending the sources of oppression that have led to these inequities and that we recognize that that takes time and that that takes constant pressure.”

<a href="https://hds.harvard.edu/people/cornel-r-west">Dr. Cornel West</a> is a former Professor of the Practice of Public Philosophy at Harvard University and a Professor Emeritus at Princeton University. West is also a member of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and has used the organization’s platform to <a href="https://www.dsausa.org/democratic-left/cornel_west_endorses_bernie_sanders/">endorse</a> Bernie Sanders for president.  

West is known for his vocal opposition to Donald Trump, <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=14389">describing</a> him at a rally for Bernie Sanders as a “neo-fascist gangster.”

West is also notable for his mistrust of the official narrative of 9/11. As <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=5054">reported</a> by Campus Reform, he relayed his suspicion when asked if 9/11 was an inside job during the Million Muslim March in Washington D.C. “At this point, I’m still uncertain. I think there might be a possibility but my hunch is that with Bin Laden’s definitive investment, he must have had something to do with it,” explained West.

Among West’s other peculiar beliefs, he is an avowed socialist that has served as an honorary chair for the DSA. In an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zYAH-BZZTs">interview</a> with Laura Flanders, he praised Karl Marx for having an “indispensable” analysis of America, declaring that American capitalism forces people to live in “wage slavery.” When <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kuc6C2_Txmw">challenged</a> by Tucker Carlson for his support of Socialism, most notably for its repeated and abysmal failures, West deflected and accused the US of interfering in preventing the implementation of authentic socialism in places like Venezuela.

Perhaps the most disturbing example of Dr. West’s radical beliefs is his sustained relationship and defense of notorious Nation of Islam (NOI) leader, Louis Farrakhan. 

Farrakhan is noted for his virulent and antisemitic remarks praise of Adolf Hitler made during NOI sermons:
<ul>
 	<li style="list-style-type: none;">
<ul>
 	<li style="list-style-type: none;">
<ul>
 	<li>“The Jews don’t like Farrakhan, so they call me Hitler. Well, that’s a good name. Hitler was a VERY great man.”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;">"...there were many Israeli’s and Zionist Jews in key roles in the 9/11 attacks.”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;">“Satanic Jews have infected the whole world with poison and deceit.”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;">"The Jews have been so bad at politics they lost half their population in the Holocaust.”</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;">"The Jews have control over those agencies of government. When you want something in the world, a Jew holds the door."</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;">I'm not an anti-Semite. I'm an anti-Termite.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
Despite a bevy of disgusting remarks, Dr. West continues to collaborate with and defend Farrakhan. He most recently <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfC-z80GCSk">appeared</a> with him at an event in Chicago, hosted by PBS, to discuss issues in the black community. Numerous other academics and community leaders were present. His association with Farrakhan goes back decades, as is exhibited in a lecture given at Harvard University where he <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KwhXPXjjMw">flouted</a> his agreement with him that white supremacy is ingrained in America. In another lecture,  Dr. West openly <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qmuSqlvWE4">admitted</a> that he works with Farrakhan. 

When <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZwhYShH-pE">pressed</a> by Roland Marted about his relationship with Farrakhan, West refused to disavow him. West responded that “people need to stop lying about my brother,” and denied that Farrakhan had ever made anti-Semitic remarks. West went on to praise Farrakhan for his “consistency” on white supremacy.   

Dr. West has also openly embraced ANTIFA. <a href="https://www.democracynow.org/2020/6/1/cornel_west_us_moment_of_reckoning">Appearing</a> on Democracy Now!, Dr. West claimed that ANTIFA “saved his life” when protesting in Charlottesville and lambasted the Trump administration's decision to label ANTIFA a terrorist organization:

“...ANTIFA saved my life in Charlottesville. There’s no doubt about it, that they provided the security, you see. So the very notion that they become candidates for a terrorist organization, but the people who were trying to kill us — the Nazis, the Klan — they’re not candidates for terrorist organization status — but that’s what you’re going to get. You’re going to get a Trump-led neofascist backlash and clampdown on what is going on. We ought to be very clear about that. The neofascism has that kind of obsession with militaristic imposition in the face of any kind of disorder. And so we’ve got to be fortified for that.”

Cornel West is a vocal critic of Israel. In 2014 - though aware that terrorist group Hamas was launching thousands of rockets into Israeli civilian areas - he nonetheless <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AvFVnRfpj7w&amp;feature=youtu.be&amp;t=281">accused</a> Israel of state-sponsored terrorism and urged “resistance” on behalf of the Palestinians.

<a href="https://hls.harvard.edu/faculty/directory/10048/Bartholet">Elizabeth Bartholet</a> is the Morris Wasserstein Public Interest Professor of Law and Faculty Director of the Child Advocacy Program at Harvard University. Bartholet’s work is primarily centered around child welfare. She <a href="https://bartholet.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/children.pdf">believes</a> that “poverty and social justice are the root causes of most child maltreatment” and that early childhood intervention by social services is needed to prevent abuse. 

Bartholet is a vocal and visceral opponent of home-schooling, describing it as “near-absolute parental power” and “inconsistent” with the human rights of children. In a <a href="https://arizonalawreview.org/pdf/62-1/62arizlrev1.pdf">paper written for the Arizona Law Review</a>, she advocates for an outright ban on homeschooling. Bartholet sees homeschooling as a danger to society, and accuses parents who decide to remove their children from public schools of promoting segregation and misogyny:  

“...parents can now keep their children at home in the name of homeschooling free from any real scrutiny as to whether or how they are educating their children. Many homeschool because they want to isolate their children from ideas and values central to our democracy, determined to keep their children from exposure to views that might enable autonomous choice about their future lives. Many promote racial segregation and female subservience. Many question science. Abusive parents can keep their children at home free from the risk that teachers will report them to child protection services. Some homeschool precisely for this reason.”

Bartholet repeats and expands on her position, claiming that homeschooling may lead to child abuse: 

“Parents can choose to teach that biblical truth trumps all, that all science is false science, that women should be educated to be subservient to men, that people of color are inferior to whites, that people with nontraditional sexual orientations or gender identities should be “cured” or condemned. Parents can choose to put their children to work, notwithstanding child labor laws. Parents can choose to beat their children, starve them, or chain them up…”

Bartholet then critiques the inability to enact any legislation due to the “outdated nature of the Constitution, 

“The U.S. Constitution with its negative rights structure is an anomaly, outdated and inadequate by the standards of the rest of the world Negative rights— rights to be free from state intervention—are particularly inadequate for children...The U.S. Constitution’s focus on negative rights represents an older western constitutional tradition, “increasingly out of step with emerging constitutional norms…”

Bartholet’s hostility towards homeschooling appears to stem from the fact that a disproportionate amount of these parents are conservative Christians and not progressives: 

“It is the religious ideologues who dominate the homeschooling movement...Nor is there any other significant advocacy organization designed to represent the views of the highly educated nonreligious homeschoolers, the descendants of the John Holt progressive wing of the homeschooling movement.”

Bartholet had been slated to <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=14850">appear</a> at a Harvard-sponsored summit that was described as an “anti-homeschooling conference.” Titled “<a href="https://cap.law.harvard.edu/homeschooling-summit-june-18-19-2020/">Homeschooling Summit: Problems, Politics, and Prospects for Reform</a>,” it has since been postponed after receiving fierce backlash.

Dr. David R. Williams is a <a href="https://scholar.harvard.edu/davidrwilliams/home" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tenured professor at Harvard University</a>. He specializes in several subjects, including Public Health, Sociology, and African American Studies. Dr. Williams has also delivered many lectures and written a substantial number of publications that discuss discrimination and racism in the United States, particularly in healthcare, and the negative health impact conservatives have on Democrats and minorities.

In 2016, Dr. Williams appeared in a TED Talk titled, “<a href="https://www.ted.com/talks/david_r_williams_how_racism_makes_us_sick/transcript?language=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">How Racism Makes Us Sick</a>”. In this 16 minute video, he discusses how stereotypes in the subconscious minds of healthcare professionals lead to lesser quality care for minorities. He attributes this to implicit biases and explains how it’s an unconscious process that occurs “even among the most well-intended individuals.” According to Williams, when a person of color is being treated by a non-minority medical professional, that provider holds unconscious and inherent biases that cause them to unknowingly provide lesser quality healthcare.

A topic Dr. Williams discusses often, particularly on Twitter, is white privilege and supremacy in politics. In an <a href="https://scholar.harvard.edu/files/davidrwilliams/files/williams_medlock_nejm_elections_and_health_2017.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article published by the New England Journal of Medicine</a> in 2017, Dr. Williams alleges that President Donald Trump’s candidacy reignited pre-existing hostile attitudes towards racial and ethnic minorities and migrants. He goes on to describe how Democrats in particular experienced negative health effects after the 2016 election, as they feel they are direct targets of hostility and discrimination, particularly white American conservatives.

&nbsp;

He further accuses the conservative-run Tea Party, which materialized after the election of Barack Obama, of increasing racial animosity in the United States. Dr. Williams claims a large uptick in racism on social media occurred after Obama’s election, as well as a resurgence of historically racist stereotypes. He attributes all of this to the Tea Party.

<img class="alignnone wp-image-1541 size-large aligncenter" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-4-e1631047832769-1024x469.png" alt="" width="580" height="266" />

<a href="https://www.britannica.com/topic/Tea-Party-movement" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Tea Party</a> is an organization that was created in response to the 2008 financial and housing crisis in the United States. Outraged by the Obama administration’s policies - such as the mortgage bailouts in 2009 - the Tea Party was born. <a href="https://www.teaparty.org/about-us/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">According to their website</a>, the Tea Party claims to have millions of members nationwide, consisting of Democrats, Republicans, Libertarians, and Independents alike.

Dr. Williams is also credited with developing the “<a href="https://scholar.harvard.edu/davidrwilliams/node/32397" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Everyday Discrimination Scale</a>” that is widely used as a measure of subjective experiences of discrimination in order to measure feelings of racism. This scale is used in schools to measure students’ perceived level of discrimination in their everyday lives. On the flip side, if students score very low on the scale, teachers and professors want to know why students think they aren’t being discriminated against. This typically boils down to the color of their skin.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-1542 size-large" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Copy-of-PWL-Quote-Template-4-1-e1631047942158-1024x481.png" alt="" width="580" height="272" />

The scale is used in several major universities, particularly in healthcare studies. The University of Miami School of Nursing and Health Studies uses the scale to measure “subjective experiences of daily discrimination against the minority population.” Further details about their use of the scale <a href="https://elcentro.sonhs.miami.edu/research/measures-library/daily-discrimination-scale/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">can be found here</a>.

As of January 11, over 10,000 people <a href="https://www.change.org/p/resist-the-call-for-the-resignation-of-claudine-gay-as-harvard-president" target="_blank" rel="noopener">signed the Change.org petition</a> calling for Harvard University President Claudine Gay’s resignation. The shift away from public support started after Gay’s <a href="https://youtu.be/oklC-xpSOWc?list=TLPQMTIxMjIwMjOdO_R_5s2NVQ">congressional testimony</a> where she refused to condemn anti-Jewish protests on campus. 

During the December 5, 2023 hearing, New York Representative Elise Stefanik <a href="https://youtu.be/lwu3rBAWvOQ">asked</a> Gay whether inciting violence and genocide against Jews violated Harvard’s rules on bullying or harassment. Gay said, “It can be, depending on the context.” When grilled further about the context, Gay explained, “[When it’s] targeted at an individual.”

After the October 7 Hamas terrorist invasion that killed over 1,000 Jewish citizens, <a href="https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2023/12/6/unrecognized-student-group-protests/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">more than 30 pro-Palestine student groups</a> began protesting on Harvard’s main campus. The Crimson reported that 33 student groups also <a href="https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2023/10/10/psc-statement-backlash/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">signed a statement of responsibility</a> wherein Israel is solely blamed for the attack.

In November, at the height of pro-Hamas protests on campus, Gay released a statement:
“Our university embraces a commitment to free expression. That commitment extends even to views that many of us find objectionable, even outrageous. We do not punish or sanction people for expressing such views. But that’s a far cry from endorsing them. It’s in the exercise of our freedom to speak that we reveal our characters, and we reveal the character of our institution.…”

​​Gay’s resignation also came amid growing controversy surrounding plagiarized publications throughout her career. Gay initially <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/12/11/news/claudine-gay-denies-newly-surfaced-plagiarism-accusations/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">denied all allegations</a> of plagiarism and<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/harvard-rallies-behind-president-claudine-gay-amid-calls-for-resignation-2023-12" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> garnered support</a> from more than 500 faculty members.

On December 12, <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/billionaire-confirms-harvard-president-was-dei-hire-as-dozens-more-plagiarism-accusations-emerge/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gay appeared</a> in The College Fix again. The source said, “Billionaire hedge fund founder Bill Ackman said on [Twitter] he has confirmed that Harvard University’s selection of [Gay] for president was a decision based on diversity, equity and inclusion principles.”

Despite Gay’s lack of integrity and unethical practices, <a href="https://youtu.be/CNXPq6OppJE" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The National Desk</a> announced that she will remain a professor at Harvard University and will keep her nearly $900,000 salary.

<a href="https://www.fas.harvard.edu/pages/dean-claudine-gay" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Professor Gay’s university profile</a> states, “[S]ince 2006, Gay has studied political behavior, considering issues in her research such as: how the election of minority officeholders affects citizens’ perceptions of their government…how neighborhood environments shape racial and political attitudes among black Americans…and the consequences of housing mobility programs for political participation among the poor.”

<a href="https://scholar.harvard.edu/cgay/home" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gay’s personal statement</a> says, “I bring many of these interests to my undergraduate and graduate advising and teaching, including my courses on Post-Civil Rights Black Politics; Democratic Citizenship; and Politics of Race, Ethnicity and Immigration.” 

In a publication titled <a href="https://scholar.harvard.edu/files/cgay/files/political_behavior_vol_36_p99-124.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Knowledge Matters: Policy Cross-pressures and Black Partisanship</a>, Gay states, in part, “Political observers have long recognized the socially conservative tendencies of the Black mass public. In stark contrast to their views on racial and social welfare, African Americans are firmly anchored to the political right of whites (and other minorities) on a range of moral and cultural issues, including abortion, gay rights, and women’s role in society.”

Professor Gay is also affiliated with <a href="https://inequalityinamerica.fas.harvard.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harvard’s Inequality in America program</a> – “a multidisciplinary effort to elevate and energize teaching and research on social and economic inequality and to use what we learn to inform the public debate and public response to these challenges.” 

<a href="https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2022/4/8/gay-thrilled-taeku-hire/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Harvard Crimson</a> featured Gay’s enthusiasm for expanding the school’s ethnic studies program as she welcomed a new faculty recruit. The article says, “Following more than four decades of lobbying by Harvard students and alumni for an ethnic studies concentration, Gay launched a search for faculty specializing in Asian American, Latinx, and Muslim studies in June 2019.”

A <a href="https://www.hbs.edu/news/releases/Pages/race-gender-equity-initiative.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harvard Newsroom press release</a> described the initiative as “both a renaming of the Gender Initiative and a reflection of work done to understand…racial equality in organizations and business…”

Dr. Ely said, “Our faculty pursue research in a wide range of fields related to equity, creating knowledge that helps leaders drive change in their organizations and the world,” according to Harvard Newsroom.

Ely has published several books and journal articles. In 2018, she co-authored an article titled <a href="https://hbr.org/2018/03/beating-the-odds" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Beating the Odds: Leadership Lessons from Senior African-American Women</a> in which she claimed, “Too often we see business leaders struggle to advance members of underrepresented groups because they model their development strategies on their own paths to success.”

The article concludes by stating, “When African-American women are underrepresented in an organization’s senior leadership roles despite robust academic credentials and work experience, their struggles often suggest a broader problem: a workplace that fails to offer every employee equal access to opportunities for growth.”

In a 2018 symposium, Race, Work &amp; Leadership: Learning About &amp; From Black Experience, Ely said, “[I] take an intersectional approach with the Gender Initiative…I think this is where the energy in the world is right now…gender really shape[s] the lives and livelihoods of people and also our workplaces.”

In 2021, Nowak was censured by <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/claudinegay" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Claudine Gay</a>, dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences after it was revealed that he had connections to Jeffrey Epstein, a sex trafficker who allegedly committed suicide while awaiting trial in 2019.

Yanilda Gonzalez is the <a href="https://www.hks.harvard.edu/faculty/yanilda-gonzalez" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Assistant Professor of Public Policy at the Harvard Kennedy School</a>. She teaches Politics and Ethics in Unstable Times, as well as Policing, Citizenship, and Inequality in Comparative Perspective. Both courses offer guidance for analyzing systemic inequalities and injustice in American society.

According to her university profile, Professor Gonzalez focuses her research on “policing, state violence, and citizenship in democracy, examining how race, class, and other forms of inequality shape these processes.” She has also published several scholarly articles and one book titled “<a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/Authoritarian_Police_in_Democracy/afwAEAAAQBAJ?hl=en&amp;gbpv=1&amp;dq=authoritarian+police+in+democracy&amp;printsec=frontcover" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Authoritarian Police in Democracy: Contested Security in Latin America</a>.”

The book explores why “police forces are at the center of social unrest and debates about democracy and rule of law [and] the persistence of authoritarian policing in Latin America to explain why police violence and malfeasance remain pervasive decades after democratization.”

In a <a href="https://youtu.be/CkGBLBCHaXM" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harvard Kennedy School video discussion</a> of her book, Gonzalez said her inspiration for the publication started when she was a “young and impressionable college student who was starting to learn about democracy as a political science major.” After witnessing alleged human rights abuses during 9/11, working for the <a href="https://www.nyclu.org/en/publications/forces-against-progress-are-gathering-new-york-must-lead-way-forward">New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU)</a>, and studying post-dictatorship policing in South America, Gonzalez came to wonder “how can democratic systems perpetuate authoritarian practices.”

The NYCLU’s is a non-profit organization that focuses on racial justice, voting reform, transgender rights, and the rights of incarcerated people. The group’s legislative goals include lowering incarceration rates among Blacks by decriminalizing minor drug possession and eliminating “taxes on poverty” — these are court fees and fines collected by local governments as a “major source of funding.”

Her research interests and teaching consist of equality, inclusion, economic and social justice, as well as human rights diplomacy and the role of identity in advocacy.

Ossom was featured in a 2020 Harvard Law Today article titled “<a href="https://hls.harvard.edu/today/event-series-explores-racial-justice-and-human-rights/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Event Series Explores Racial Justice and Human Rights</a>.” She hosted a series of talks “between students, scholars, and practitioners on the role that race plays both in the practice and substance of international human rights work.” When asked what inspired her to convene the event series, Ossom said,

“The series is inspired most directly by the ongoing discussions about systemic racism that have accompanied protests for racial justice around the world…Observations about human rights practice can spark ideas that lead to great legal scholarship.”

In the wake of the high-profile deaths of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and George Floyd, Ossom co-authored <a href="https://deliverypdf.ssrn.com/delivery.php?ID=229087098105069064000019124018110099098073020038068011091083024111002018074073066027060118002034019104038016068000078089071026020039005023014121118068002073064111119010065042002003091113006102093092118006112003102116125029086103080105100088068072110090&amp;EXT=pdf&amp;INDEX=TRUE" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Toward an Antiracist Clinical Community, Pedagogy, &amp; Practice</a>.

Ossom primarily served as the moderator but joined the conversation to share thoughts on the “defund the police” movement:

“I’m also hearing, too, that issues of trust aren’t just issues of trust for the police. They’re also issues of trust for systems of education, nutritional security, water and sanitation, [and] in other systems...But I should also point out that there’s also distrust among other institutions because of the fact that they failed to provide for Black American communities.

John Comaroff is the Hugh K. Foster <a href="https://anthropology.fas.harvard.edu/people/john-comaroff" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Professor of African and African-American Studies and Anthropology</a> at Harvard University. His teaching and research interests include crime, policing, and democracy in postcolonial politics. 

In June 2022, Comaroff was <a href="https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2022/6/29/comaroff-amended-complaint/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">featured in The Harvard Crimson</a> as an alleged perpetrator of sexual assault crimes on campus. The Crimson said, “Comaroff is facing new allegations of sexual harassment in an <a href="https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.mad.242149/gov.uscourts.mad.242149.35.0.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">amended lawsuit</a> that includes accounts of unwanted touching, kissing, and sexual remarks during his three decades as a faculty member at the University of Chicago, where he allegedly engaged in multiple sexual relationships with students.”

When accusations resulted in a lawsuit against the college, Comaroff was placed on unpaid administrative leave in January. Comaroff’s colleagues immediately rallied in support with nearly 40 faculty and staff adding signatures to <a href="https://s3.amazonaws.com/media.thecrimson.com/pdf/2022/02/04/1353924.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">an open letter</a>. The letter states:

“Harvard’s Office of Dispute Resolution (ODR) found that Comaroff had ‘engaged in verbal conduct that violated the FAS Sexual and Gender-Based Harassment Policy and the FAS Profesional Conduct Policy. Although Comaroff had been accused by three students, only one allegation was found by Harvard's ODR to have any merit.”

“We the undersigned know John Comaroff to be an excellent colleague, advisor and committed university citizen who has for five decades trained and advised hundreds of Ph.D. students of diverse backgrounds…We are dismayed by Harvard’s sanctions against him and concerned about its effects on our ability to advise our own students.”

By February 10 — when details of the lawsuit became public — the <a href="https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2022/2/10/comaroff-faculty-letter-retraction/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Crimson reported</a>, “Almost all of the Harvard professors who signed an open letter that questioned the results of misconduct investigations into professor Comaroff have retracted their support.” In turn, “some of Harvard’s most prominent scholars signed a letter of retraction” and one sent an email to recant their support.

According to the <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/education/2022/02/10/harvard-sexual-misconduct-comaroff/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Washinton Post</a>, “The reversal came after three Harvard graduate students filed a lawsuit accusing the university of ignoring sexual harassment allegations against Comaroff…Attorneys for Comaroff said he categorically denies ever harassing or retaliating against any student…The lawsuit characterized Harvard’s response to complaints as ‘deliberate indifference…’”

As of September, Comaroff was <a href="https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2022/09/09/accused-harasser-john-comaroff-returns-harvard" target="_blank" rel="noopener">removed from administrative leave</a> and allowed back in the classroom. The lawsuit against Harvard and Comaroff is ongoing.

Sandra Susan Smith is the <a href="https://www.hks.harvard.edu/faculty/sandra-susan-smith" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Daniel and Florence Guggenheim Professor of Criminal Justice</a> and Faculty Director for the Program in Criminal Justice Policy and Management at Harvard Kennedy School. Part of her research interests is focused on racial inequality in pretrial detention and diversion. Smith believes criminal offenders — particularly those in black communities — who are monitored electronically incur unfavorable psychological, social, and economic injuries.

<a href="https://www.cdcr.ca.gov/parole/electronic-monitoring/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Electronic monitoring (EM)</a> is an incarceration alternative that allows pretrial offenders to avoid bail payments or extra time behind bars while awaiting court hearings.

Harvard Kennedy School published an article featuring Smith titled <a href="https://www.hks.harvard.edu/faculty-research/policy-topics/fairness-justice/san-francisco-has-fewer-pretrial-detainees-jail" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“San Francisco has few pretrial detainees in jail. But at what cost?”</a> Smith’s research into pretrial detainees revealed that “more than 40% were black, despite black people making up only about 5% of San Francisco’s population.” In the article, Smith argues:

“Reforms like pretrial EM, while presumably meant as a move toward lower incarceration, end up trapping participants in cycles of interaction with the criminal legal system even before they’ve been convicted of a crime. EM, like incarceration itself, reproduces inequalities by race and class and prevents participants from becoming full members of society.”

Essentially, Smith advocates that the mental health of offenders who are monitored is a greater risk than the probability of them committing further crimes while awaiting trial. She “hopes that as reforms continue to happen in the criminal justice system…and that San Francisco will substantially scale back its use of pretrial EM,” according to Harvard Kennedy School.

Smith teaches Section A: Exploring Institutions and Modes of Racial Domination of a course called “<a href="https://www.hks.harvard.edu/courses/race-and-racism-public-policies-practices-and-perspectives" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Race and Racism in Public Policies, Practices, and Perspectives</a>.” The section description says, 

“This module…[examines] power and oppression in the contemporary American context. We will explore key theoretical and empirical insights from the social sciences to highlight the role of institutions of racial domination have played in producing durable racial hierarchies…”

Cornell Williams Brooks — a former head of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) — is the Hauser Professor of the Practice of Nonprofit Organizations and Professor of the Practice of Public Leadership and Social Justice. 

His <a href="https://www.hks.harvard.edu/faculty/cornell-william-brooks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harvard Kennedy School profile</a> states he was a visiting professor of social ethics, law, and justice movement at Boston University’s School of Law and School of Theology. On the Gloria Purvis Podcast, Brooks discussed how “black” churches in America should respond to social justice issues. He said the church was “tremendously consequential” in his life and his decision to become a minister.

Brooks told The Observer,

“‘There are a great many studies about harm and repair [that are] [sic]regular and routine…Data suggests that reparations is [sic] commonplace. For example, veteran’s injuries, losing property, bad vaccines and when farmers lose their crops. Reparations is not aberrational but is a customary means of redress.”

In May 2020, Brooks was featured in an NPR publication titled “<a href="https://www.delawarepublic.org/national-headlines/2020-05-31/former-naacp-head-cornell-brooks-blames-derek-chauvin-for-violence-at-protests" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Former NAACP Head Cornell Brooks Blames Derek Chauvin for Violence at Protests.</a>” At the height of the controversy — when netizens and politicians were blaming Antifa and far-left radical extremist groups, Brooks said he thought “the police officer who knelt on Floyd’s neck should be blamed for violent protests, too.”

NPR quoted Brooks saying,

“In these marches and demonstrations, there are anarchists and white supremacists and others who show up…[b]ut to be clear: There would be no protests, there would be no demonstrations, had Derek Chauvin not killed George Floyd.” 

“[Chauvin] should also be charged with looting, with arson, and with sowing the seeds of chaos and dissension in our public. He is an accomplice, he is a co-conspirator [and] a co-participant in the destruction were are experiencing as a country.”

Marks serves as a <a href="https://www.hks.harvard.edu/faculty/zoe-marks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lecturer in Public Policy at the Harvard Kennedy School.</a> Her professor profile says her “research and teaching interests focus on the intersection of conflict and political violence.” Her work also explores race, gender, and equality.

She teaches International and Intersectional Approaches to Race and Racism — this is “section C” of a class titled “Race and Racism in Public Policies, Practices, and Perspectives.” The <a href="https://www.hks.harvard.edu/courses/race-and-racism-public-policies-practices-and-perspectives" target="_blank" rel="noopener">course description</a> says, 

“Students will confront legacies and explore key frameworks, from caste to global antiblackness, for understanding and redressing how racism shapes our lives and our world. Each student will build a personal toolkit of intersectional policy analysis skills and concepts…we will work toward concrete policy and advocacy solutions to system racism.”

Zoe Marks is an outspoken supporter of pro-abortion policies, social justice, and women’s rights. In an opinion titled “Breaking the Silence,” she told <a href="https://www.hks.harvard.edu/faculty-research/policy-topics/fairness-justice/roe-v-wade-has-been-overturned-what-does-mean#zoe-marks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harvard Kennedy School News</a>,

“The Supreme Court’s decision to let state legislatures control people’s access to abortion care is the latest chapter in a decades-long conversation that most Americans have been reluctant to have…As a historical reference point, it’s useful to remember there is no record of women being discussed at the Constitutional Convention…”

She continued,

“For millions of enslaved women, who were held as property and legally denied bodily autonomy and personhood, sharing knowledge of birth control and abortifacients was a way to claim their sovereignty and resist white capitalist violence.”

Marks co-authored an article titled “<a href="https://www.foreignaffairs.com/articles/china/2022-02-08/women-rights-revenge-patriarchs?check_logged_in=1&amp;utm_medium=promo_email&amp;utm_source=lo_flows&amp;utm_campaign=registered_user_welcome&amp;utm_term=email_1&amp;utm_content=20221101" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Revenge of the Patriarchs: Why Autocrats Fear Women</a>” in which she discusses the role of women throughout world history and politics. From Marks’ perspective, “Countries with authoritarian-leaning leaders, such as Brazil, Hungary, and Poland, have seen the rise of far-right movements that promote traditional gender roles as patriotic while railing against ‘gender ideology.’”

In the same publication, Marks also said,

“Even the United States has experienced a slowdown in progress toward gender equity and a rollback of reproductive rights…During his presidency, Donald Trump worked with antifeminist stalwarts…to halt the expansion of women’s rights around the world.”

“And despite the Biden administration’s commitment to gender equity at the national level, Republican-controlled states are attempting to reverse the constitutional right to abortion, which is now more vulnerable than it has been in decades.”

<a href="https://aaas.fas.harvard.edu/people/jesse-mccarthy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jesse McCarthy</a> is an Assistant Professor of English as well as a Professor of African and African American Studies at Harvard University. His interests include African American Literature, Modernism, and Feminist, Gender and Sexuality Studies.

McCarthy authored a collection of essays entitled “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Who-Will-Pay-Reparations-Soul-ebook/dp/B08D1K6354/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=who+will+pay+reparations+on+my+soul+essays&amp;qid=1668008114&amp;sprefix=who+will+pay%2Caps%2C279&amp;sr=8-1&amp;asin=B08D1K6354&amp;revisionId=5b7726f8&amp;format=1&amp;depth=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Who Will Pay Reparations on My Soul?</a>” in which he argues “for the central role of art and intellection culture in an age of widening inequality and moral crisis,” according to the publisher’s summary. In his introduction, A Note on Style and Usage, McCarthy says,

“Pride in culture and rooted history have always been important to our struggles. Historically, W.E.B. Du Bois and others fought to have the word ‘Negro’ capitalized for this very reason. In that case, ‘the Negro’ became a demonym specifically denoting US racial blackness. The word ‘Negro’...reflects and will always be associated with the history of black Americans under the racial regime of Jim Crow.”

When <a href="https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2021/06/jesse-mccarthy-discusses-his-new-essay-collection/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Harvard Gazette asked McCarthy</a>, “Where does the title of the collection come from?”, he said, 

“The title is an homage to Gil Scott-Heron…a writer, a poet, and a musician who used his art as a vehicle for ideas and politics and critical thinking…I’m more interested in asking and provoking questions than providing answers.”

He continued,

“This isn’t a prescriptive book — you can’t open it and find an answer to the question of reparations for racial injustice in America or anywhere else. But hopefully, you can open the book and it will provoke you to think about those problems in new ways and raise a bunch of new ones too.”

In 2021, The New York Times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2021/03/26/books/review/jesse-mccarthy-who-will-pay-reparations-on-my-soul.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">featured McCarthy discussing his collection of essays</a> in an article titled To This Essayist and Cultural Critic, the Black Tradition is Resistance. Regarding McCarthy’s target audience for the book, the commentary says, “Some potential readership came of age in the period bookended by the police killings of Michale Brown, in 2014, and both Breonna Taylor and George Floyd, in 2020 — the same period during which McCarthy wrote the essays…”

The New York Times continued, “[McCarthy] mainly hopes to convey ‘the basic premise that nothing is outside our purview, that there are no limits to the ideas, realms of knowledge, creative traditions or political histories that we can lay claim to and incorporate…[McCarthy] convincing explained [his] personal decision to resist the trend of capitalizing ‘Black’ in reference to the community to which he happens to belong.”

Du Bois Professor of the Social Sciences at Harvard University. His faculty profile also says he served as the Chair of the Department of African and African-American Studies, and his research focuses on the “intersection of social psychology, social inequality, politics, and race.”

In June 2020, <a href="https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2020/06/lawrence-d-bobo-examines-police-killings-of-black-men/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Harvard Gazette published a Q &amp; A</a> titled “The Fire This Time.” The subheading says, “[Bobo] dissects police killings of Black men and the history and cognitive forces behind racial bigotry and violence, and why he sees signs of hope.”

The Gazette asked, “In the majority of police-related killings of Black people, the assailants are white. Is that enough to conclude that racism is the cause, or are their other causes also at work?” Bobo responded,

“Certainly racism, and both the historic legacy of racism and the long, deeply etched legacy of racism in terms of our current social conditions and circumstances…have been profoundly distorted by racism.”

He continued,

“It’s really important to recall that what slavery did…was to forge a tight link between our social class structure and a kind of racial hierarchy. It created a bottom rung of people who were racially stigmatized and in the deepest economic disadvantage and poverty.”

Bobo co-authored a book entitled, “<a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/Racial_Attitudes_in_America/mPOWMEEKpY0C?hl=en&amp;gbpv=1&amp;dq=Racial+Attitudes+in+America&amp;printsec=frontcover" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Racial Attitudes in America: Trends and Interpretations</a>.” Chapter 3: Trends in White Racial Attitudes discusses six questions surrounding trends “of how white racial attitudes changed over the past half-century.” Regarding affirmative action, Bobo et al., stated,

“The first affirmative action steps had been attempts to eliminate what came to be called ‘institutional racism’...A second, more active type of affirmative step was to devote government funds to improving the lives of black Americans…Finally, a third and still more dramatic step was to give preference to blacks in employment and educational situations, as a way of…accelerating the move toward equality of outcomes.” 

Bobo was named among the “Top 10 Black Sociologists from the last 30 Years” in a publication from <a href="https://academicinfluence.com/rankings/people/black-scholars/sociologists" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Academic Influence</a>.

According to the About page, NASEM is a nonprofit institution that “works to shape sound policies, inform public opinion, and advance the pursuit of science, engineering, and medicine.”

Alsan and her committee <a href="https://www.nationalacademies.org/our-work/improving-the-representation-of-women-and-underrepresented-minorities-in-clinical-trials-and-research#sectionPublications" target="_blank" rel="noopener">published a study</a> that concluded, “While progress has been made with the representation of white women in clinical trials and clinical research, there has been little progress in the last three decades to increase participation of racial and ethnic minority population groups.”

Alsan also co-authored a paper titled “<a href="https://www.nber.org/system/files/working_papers/w24787/w24787.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Does Diversity Matter for Health? Experimental Evidence From Oakland</a>.” Citing previous studies, the introduction says,

“African-American men have the lowest life expectancy of any major demographic group in the United States and live on average 4.5 few years than non-Hispanic white men. Reasons for this disparity are multifactorial and include lack of health insurance, lower socioeconomic status, and structural racism.”

Alsan et al., further state,

“There are several ways in which racial diversity could play a role in medicine, specifically as it relates to the patient-doctor relationship. Taste-based discrimination on the part of the patient or doctor could imply that individuals are averse to interacting with those who do not share their racial background. On the other hand, internalized racism…could lead to the opposite phenomenon…” 

In 2020, Alsan <a href="https://www.hks.harvard.edu/wiener-conference-calls/marcella-alsan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">joined a Weiner Conference Call</a> to talk about the “economics of infectious diseases” where she discussed the Covid-19 virus, vaccines, and some research conducted by Dr. Anthony Fauci’s — the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID) who was <a href="https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/20793561/leopold-nih-foia-anthony-fauci-emails.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">exposed for allegedly covering up origins of the Covid-19 pandemic</a>.

During the questions section, the moderator asked on behalf of a student, “‘Very open the terms ‘minorities’ and ‘marginalized communities’ are used interchangeably…During Covid-19, has it been important or relevant to make a distinction between the two groups from a policy point of view?’” 

Alsan gave a hesitant, incoherent response, “I think what…I work mostly in the United States and I think it’s important to think about who is historically disadvantaged, and, um, who might need…who [is] particularly vulnerable. Because simply being less than the majority doesn’t necessarily mean that you’ll be equally vulnerable.”

Dr. Greene’s primary role is the Title IX Resources Coordinator — a position that gives her unrestricted access to all complaints of sexual discrimination, as well as reports of retaliation or system issues that may continually raise once complaints are processed.

Dr. Greene is an affiliate and ally of Harvard’s <a href="https://oge.harvard.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Office for Gender Equity (OGE)</a>. The organization provides “professional training” to recognize, report, investigate and appeal sexual misconduct. The About page states,

“Juneteenth marks the day slavery officially ended in the United States on June 19, 1865. President Abraham Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation promised freedom to enslaved people in the Confederate states on January 1, 1863, following the four-year Civil War.”

She continued,

“However, it was a full two and half years before all states were compelled to honor this executive order, effectively freeing the 250,000 people still being held under slavery in Texas. We join you in giving this holiday the national recognition it deserves, while acknowledging that many members of the African-American community continue to struggle for the dignity, access, equality, equity, and inclusion that was envisioned by the Emancipation Proclamation.”

<a href="https://hls.harvard.edu/faculty/crystal-s-yang/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Crystal S. Yang</a> holds a Ph.D. in Economics and is the Bennett Professor of Law at Harvard Law School. Her areas of interest include civil rights, law and equity, poverty law and economic justice.

Yang’s faculty appointment was announced in a 2019 article from <a href="https://hls.harvard.edu/today/crystal-yang-13-named-professor-of-law-at-harvard-law-school/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harvard Law Today</a>. The report says,

“Yang’s recent empirical projects focus on the effects of the bail system on defendants’ short and long-term outcomes, racial bias in the criminal justice system, the spillover effects of deportation fear, and the use of algorithms in the criminal justice system.”

Yang co-authored a study titled “<a href="https://academic.oup.com/qje/article-abstract/133/4/1885/5025665?redirectedFrom=fulltext" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Racial Bias in Bail Decisions</a>.” The abstract states, 

“We motivate our analysis using <a href="https://www.chicagobooth.edu/review/how-gary-becker-saw-the-scourge-of-discrimination" target="_blank" rel="noopener">[Gary] Becker’s model of racial bias</a>, which predicts that rates of pretrial misconduct will be identical for marginal white and marginal black defendants if bail judges are racially unbiased. In contrast, marginal white defendants will have higher rates of misconduct than marginal black defendants if the bail judges are racially biased…”

Yang et al., continued,

“We find suggestive evidence that racial bias is driven by bail judges relying on inaccurate stereotypes that exaggerate the relative danger of releasing black defendants.”

<a href="https://cyber.harvard.edu/people/alejandra-caraballo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Alejandra Caraballo</a> is a Clinical Instructor at Harvard Law School’s (HLS) Cyberlaw clinic. Caraballo is a transwoman — a biological male at birth who identifies as female — and prefers feminine pronouns. His Harvard University profile says,

“Alejandra previously served as the Secretary of the LGBTQ Rights Committee of the New York City Bar Association and was appointed as the first openly trans community board member in Brooklyn. Alejandra's areas of interest include the intersection of technology and disability rights, [prostitution], and the implications of quantum computing on encryption.”

In July 2022, <a href="https://campusreform.org/article?id=19822" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Campus Reform featured Caraballo</a> in a piece titled “Harvard Law instructor: ‘It is our civic duty to accost’ the ‘6 justices who overturned Roe.’” The article cites several Twitter posts, most of which are no longer available on his public profile:

In November 2021 Caraballo was <a href="https://clinics.law.harvard.edu/blog/2021/08/meet-the-first-trans-women-of-color-to-teach-at-harvard-law/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">featured in a Harvard Law publication</a> titled “Meet the first trans woman of color to teach at Harvard Law.” He joined another man who identifies as a trans woman to discuss their positions at HLS. Harvard Law said, 

“Both instructors, who identify as Latina…are excited to start a new chapter at Harvard after dedicating years to LGBTQ+ legal and advocacy work. They are also both familiar with the unique pressure and emotional weight of their presence in the legal field — where systematic hurdles still block trans people from entry…”

Harvard Law continued,

“Requirements when taking the bar in some states…only allow applicants to be addressed with ‘Mr.’ or ‘Ms’ honorifics...The depth of details that students need to disclose before taking a bar exam…has historically ‘been a problem for trans people who wanted to break into the law...You’re essentially forced to out yourself to a bar committee,’ [Caraballo] said.”

<a href="https://hls.harvard.edu/faculty/diane-l-rosenfeld/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Diane Rosenfeld</a> is a Lecturer on Law at Harvard Law School.

Rosenfeld teaches a course titled <a href="https://hls.harvard.edu/courses/bonobo-sisterhood/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bonobo Sisterhood</a>. A description for the class promises to explore “the power and potential of female alliances to disrupt patriarchal systems.” 

She has also written a book titled, “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Bonobo-Sisterhood-Revolution-Through-Alliance/dp/0063085070" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Bonobo Sisterhood Revolution Through Female Alliance</a>.” The description states that Rosenfeld will “harness the power of the #MeToo movement into a road map for sex equality” by analyzing the social relations of bonobo monkeys.

In the book, <a href="https://msmagazine.com/2022/10/19/diane-rosenfeld-bonobo-sisterhood-female-alliance-patriarchy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">she writes</a>, “Racism and sexism go hand in hand…Each is based on white male supremacy and reflects a foundation in law authored by and judged over by, overwhelmingly, white men. White supremacist patriarchy places white men above everyone else.” 

Rosenfeld <a href="https://msmagazine.com/2022/10/20/bonobo-sisterhood-primate-ancestors-patriarchy-diane-rosenfeld/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claims these monkeys have no patriarchal roles</a>, “Evolutionarily, they have eliminated male sexual coercion.” Rosenfeld states, “A new idea of the bonobo sisterhood is to think about equality among women, not measuring our equality solely in relation to men.” 

She states that “Bonobos offer us a model for female sexuality outside of patriarchy,” but claims it will only work if “<a href="https://msmagazine.com/2022/10/19/diane-rosenfeld-bonobo-sisterhood-female-alliance-patriarchy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">white women get on board</a>.” Rosenfeld hopes to “let men know that stepping outside the harmful tropes of masculinity will be liberating and better for all.” 

Rosenfeld continues, “This calls for a serious reckoning—especially among white women—about racism and white supremacy. My hope is that this can contribute to a huge leap forward for humankind.”

Former CNN correspondent Brian Stelter is the <a href="https://shorensteincenter.org/programs/fellowships/walter-shorenstein-media-democracy-fellowship/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Walter Shorenstein Media &amp; Democracy Fellow</a> at the Harvard Kennedy School. Stelter joined the university’s Center on Media, Politics, and Public Policy in the Fall of 2022. Details of Stelter's position were featured in a <a href="https://shorensteincenter.org/stelter-shorenstein-fellow/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harvard press release</a>:

“As the Walter Shorenstein Fellow, Stelter will convene a series of discussions about threats to democracy and the range of potential responses from the news media. These discussions with media leaders, policymakers…and faculty will help deepen public and scholarly understanding about the current state of the information ecosystem and its impacts on democratic governance.”

Stelter received the Walter Shorenstein appointment shortly after being terminated from his position as the host of CNN’s Reliable Sources (RS). The show ran for 30 years with Stelter at the helm from 2013 until its cancellation in August 2022. According to the <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/news/harvard-taps-journalism-expert-brian-stelter-for-teaching-gig/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">National Review</a>, "Stelter was let go by CNN after its new chairman and CEO, Chris Licht, took the reins from Jeff Zucker, who encouraged Stelter to make criticism of right-wing media the focus of his show…”

In a video announcing his departure, Stelter said,

“As most of you know, CNN has a new owner. Warner Brothers Discovery is making big changes across the company. And there’s going to be more change all across the company including here at CNN. And I’m sad I won’t be here to cover it.”

He continued,

"This entire hour is a special hour and it's about change. It's about change all across the media world. What's changing, what might change, and what must never change about the accountability function of journalism. You know I love this show, this small but mighty show that punched above its weight for so many years."

In August 2020, Stelter <a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/Hoax/PKv5DwAAQBAJ?hl=en&amp;gbpv=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">released a book</a> titled“Hoax: Donald Trump, Fox News, and the Dangerous Distortion of Truth.” Publishers said the novel includes “never before reported details [that expose] the media personalities who, though morally bankrupt, profit outrageously by promoting the President’s propaganda and radicalizing the American right.”

Under the section subheading, The Cult, Stelter wrote,

“The MAGAsphere targeted journalists who pointed out Trump’s falsehoods and flubs. Fox’s truth-tellers faced some of the most vociferous attacks because they were perceived to be turncoats.“

He continued later in the chapter,

“Once unbound from the shackles of truth, Fox’s power came from what it decided to cover — its chosen narratives — and what it decided to ignore. Trump’s immature, erratic, and immoral behavior? His sucking up to Putin? His mingling of presidential business and personal profit? Fox talk shows played dumb and targeted the ‘deep state’ instead.”

<a href="https://ghsm.hms.harvard.edu/faculty-staff/jason-bryan-silverstein" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jason Silverstein</a> is a Global Health and Social Medicine Lecturer and the Co-Director of Math of Science in Media, Medicine, and Health at Harvard Medical School. In May 2022, one month before the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the 1973 ruling Roe v. Wade, Silverstein submitted a narrative to <a href="https://www.menshealth.com/health/a39970410/abortion-saved-life/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Men’s Health Magazine</a>. The article retells the story of a woman who underwent an abortion procedure that allegedly saved her life. Silverstein introduced the publication by stating, 

“While many states will make exceptions for the life of the mother, medical emergency exceptions are not as clear as they may seem—how close to death does a woman have to be before an abortion is legal isn’t black-and-white…What is clear is that many women are alive today because they could have an abortion…”

The woman that Silverstein wrote to Men’s Health about was experiencing an ectopic pregnancy —a potentially life-threatening condition caused by a fertilized egg growing outside the uterus (i.e. in the fallopian tubes). The abnormality can cause severe internal bleeding and laparoscopic surgery (which usually results in terminating the pregnancy) is often required to successfully treat the issue.

In September of the same year, Men’s Health <a href="https://www.menshealth.com/health/a34044035/covid-19-need-real-lockdown/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">published</a> a Silverstein article with the title, “We Can’t Beat COVID-19 Without a 6-Week Lockdown.” Under the heading, “Why a lockdown is a reasonable move,” Silverstein said,

“By now the evidence is clear: lockdowns work. We know that strict lockdowns worked in China, slowing down how fast the virus spreads. In Wuhanm, the unprecedented 76-day lockdown, in which people were barred [from] leaving the city or their homes for once every three days for food, stopped new infections by two-thirds.”

After praising lockdown policies in Italy, France and New Zealand, he continued,

“The lack of any real lockdown plus patchwork of state policies feels like a strategy designed by the COVID virus itself…Just as cases started to surge in the summer, states decided to relax what orders they had…[B]ecause the first lockdowns were half-assed, now the need for a second may be a death sentence for some small businesses…

She’s also the Director of Clinical Research in the Behavioral Health, Endocrinology and Urology Program, and Gender Multispecialty Service at Boston Children’s Hospital.

Tishelman’s HMS profile says she was “selected by the World Association of Transgender Health (WPATH) to be the international lead developing new global standards of care for prepubescent children.”

Tishelman, along with several “transgender specialists,” authored WPATH’s “<a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/26895269.2022.2100644" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Standards of Care for the Health of Transgender and Gender Diverse People, Version 8</a>.” The publication was intended to “provide clinical guidelines for health professionals to assist transsexual, transgender and gender nonconforming people with safe and effective pathways to achieving lasting personal comfort…”

Addressing gender identity in minor patients, Tishelman et al., stated:

“Our understanding of gender identity development in adolescence is continuing to evolve…For some youth, gender identity development appears fixed and is often expressed from a young age, while for others there may be a developmental process that contributes to gender identity development over time.”

The authors’ “Statement of Recommendation”  for healthcare professionals includes:
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">“...possess a general knowledge of gender diversity across the lifespan.</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">…develop expertise in autism spectrum disorders and other neurodiversity or collaborate with an expert with relevant expertise when working with autistic/neurodivergent, gender-diverse children.</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">...respond supportively to children who desire to be acknowledged as the gender that matches their internal sense of gender identity.”</li>
</ul>
According to Tishelman et al., “At present, no clinical cohort studies have reported on profiles of adolescents who regret their initial decision or detransition after irreversible affirming treatment.”

Tishelman was a panel speaker during WPATH’s <a href="https://www.wpath.org/media/cms/Upcoming%20Conferences/2022/WPATH%202022%20Prospectus%20Final.pdf?_t=1649279057" target="_blank" rel="noopener">27th Scientific Symposium</a> in September 2022. WPATH’s stated goal is to work to “further the understanding of the range of interventions, modalities, medical and surgical gender-affirming treatments” while providing “opportunities for professionals to…communicate with each other in the context of research and treatment of gender incongruence…”

In June 2023, <a href="https://www.bostonreview.net/articles/a-black-geography-of-the-city/">Boston Review</a> interviewed Roane about <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Dark-Agoras-Insurgent-Social-Politics/dp/1479847674/ref=sr_1_1?crid=21MANUVSI36NU&amp;keywords=dark+agoras&amp;qid=1699479018&amp;sprefix=dark+agoras%2Caps%2C154&amp;sr=8-1&amp;asin=B09X2GLKKH&amp;revisionId=fb4c3c45&amp;format=1&amp;depth=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">his book</a> “Dark Agoras: Insurgent Black Social Life and the Politics of Place” in which he “investigates the ways they transposed rural imaginaries about and practices of place as part of their spatial resistances and efforts to contour industrial neighborhoods.”

Roane introduced the book by stating:
“Dark <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=agoras+meaning&amp;rlz=1C5CHFA_enUS1021US1022&amp;oq=agoras+meaning&amp;gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyCQgAEEUYORiABDIHCAEQABiABDIHCAIQABiABDIHCAMQABiABDIHCAQQABiABDIHCAUQABiABDIJCAYQABgKGIAEMg0IBxAuGMcBGNEDGIAEMgcICBAAGIAEMgkICRAAGAoYgATSAQkxNTU1MGowajeoAgCwAgA&amp;sourceid=chrome&amp;ie=UTF-8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">agoras</a> emerged under slavery through the active reinvention of African socialities and consciousnesses about place, identity, kinship, and belonging as the negation of the spatial and temporal features associated with domination and slave mastery…”
He goes on to state:
“Connections within the sites constituting dark agoras, as well as encounters across them and movement between them, underwrote a distinctive black working-class phenomenology of the city, the basis of what I term black queer urbanism…Black queer urbanism refers to a critical approach that views nonnormative forms of black social-geographic life…”
During the <a href="https://www.bostonreview.net/articles/a-black-geography-of-the-city/">Boston Review</a> interview, Roane responded to the question: “In your book, you argue that the stoop stands as one of the places that constitute the underground. How does this domestic exterior transform into a vital place for sociality?” Roane said:

Roane is an outspoken supporter of Palestine. After the October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorist attack on Israel, he <a href="https://www.answercoalition.org/open_letter_harvard_palestine" target="_blank" rel="noopener">signed an open letter</a> defending pro-Hamas rallies at Harvard University. The letter states, 
“The case of Harvard University is only one of many examples of the attacks that those who express solidarity with the Palestinians struggle face; attacks that are rapidly escalating at this time. Likewise, violent hate crimes against Palestinians are taking place around the country.”

<a href="https://aaas.fas.harvard.edu/people/walter-johnson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Walter Johnson</a> is the Winthrop Professor of History and a Professor of African and African American Studies at Harvard University. Johnson’s focus areas are “slavery, capitalism and imperialism in the nineteenth century.” His <a href="https://college.harvard.edu/academics/faculty/faculty-spotlights/walter-johnson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Faculty Spotlight</a> profile states: 

“As Johnson approaches his work, he is fueled not only by <a href="https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/michael-brown-killed-by-police-ferguson-mo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">events in Ferguson</a> and his work in St. Louis but also the current reckoning over American racism and the Black Lives Matter movement.”

In a <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2020/05/17/west-is-relevant-our-long-history-anti-blackness-not-just-south/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Washington Post op-ed</a> titled “The West is relevant to our long history of anti-blackness, not just the South,” Johnson wrote:
“While we commonly think of slavery, sharecropping and segregation in the South as driving anti-blackness in American history, the process of western expansion, with the attendant notion of ‘the white man’s country,’ that undergirded the development of cities such as St. Louis and the United States, is equally essential to explaining the power and persistence of anti-blackness today.”

On November 15, 2023, Johnson was featured in <a href="https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2023/11/15/faculty-condemn-president-gay-statement/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Harvard Crimson</a> publication titled “More than 100 Harvard Faculty Sign Letter Criticizing President [Claudine] Gay’s Censure of Pro-Palestine Slogan.” The Crimson stated:

“[Johnson], a History professor and the first listed signatory on the letter, confirmed in an email that the letter was referring to <a href="https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2023/11/11/thayer-proctor-relief-of-duties/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Elom Tettey-Tamaklo</a>, a Harvard doctor who was relieved of his position after appearing in a video confrontation at a “die-in” supporting Palestine at Harvard Business School.”

The letter, “Harvard Faculty Statement In Support of Academic Freedom,” claims Gay’s <a href="https://youtu.be/HDI2P4dOsJ8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">message on November 9</a> contained “outright racism” and that there “must be room on a university campus for debate about the actions of states, including the State of Israel.”

According to Johnson et al.:
“[T]he phrase ‘from the river to the sea, Palestine must be free” has a long and complicated history. Its interpretation deserves, and is receiving, sustained and ongoing inquiry and debate. Singling it out as necessarily implying removalism or even eliminationism…is imprudent as a matter of university policy and badly misjudged as an act of moral leadership.”

On January 13, 2024, <a href="https://www.mediaite.com/news/harvard-professor-forced-to-awkwardly-backtrack-after-denigrating-harvard-grads-in-attempted-own-on-conservative-writer/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mediaite News wrote</a>, “Professor [Hochschild] faced major backlash to a message she posted on [Twitter] about writer and activist Christopher Rufo, who was a key figure in the revelations about now-ousted Harvard president <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/claudinegay" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Claudine Gay’s</a> past plagiarism.”

Despite Hochschild’s work being reportedly plagiarized by Gay, Hochschild made no attempts to point out the former Harvard president’s lack of integrity.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

Hochschild has since issued an apology to HES students prompting this response from Rufo:

<a href="https://www.hbs.edu/faculty/Pages/profile.aspx?facId=271812" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Francesca Gino</a> is a Professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School. Gino’s faculty profile shows her on administrative leave with no return date listed.

Gino made headlines after she was accused of falsifying research data. Gino’s lawyer has publicly stated that Harvard lacked evidence for its allegations.

On March 16, 2024, <a href="https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/education/harvard-honesty-professor-allegedly-tampered-data-and-should-be-fired" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Just The News</a> featured Gino in an article entitled “Harvard honesty professor allegedly tampered with data and should be fired, according to probe.” Just The News said, “[Gino], considered a star behavioral scientist … allegedly tweaked observations in four of her studies to boost her hypothesis.”

The <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/03/16/us-news/harvard-professor-of-honesty-tampered-with-data-and-should-be-fired-probe/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Post</a> reported on the university’s findings, stating, “The university report detailed that Harvard began a preliminary investigation of Gino’s work in October 2021 after the Data Colada researchers brought their concerns about the papers’ sketchy data to the school.”

The Post continued, “A full probe was conducted in 2022 and 2023, with three [Harvard] faculty members interviewing Gino and people who worked with her on the papers, in addition to reviewing her data, emails, and papers’ manuscripts. An outside forensics firm also was hired to analyze her studies’ data.”

<a href="https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2024/3/15/gino-harvard-investigation-report/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Harvard Crimson</a> reported that the university’s report recommended Gino’s termination. The source said, “The report says that Gino asserted that ‘an unknown actor with malicious intentions was a more plausible explanation than honest errors or intentional data falsification by herself.’”

The source said, “The investigation concluded that Gino had ‘significantly departed from accepted practices of the relevant research community and committed research misconduct intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly.’”

Gino has filed a $25 million lawsuit against Harvard Business School claiming that she has undergone “reputational damage along with loss of income and career opportunities,” according to the New York Post. 

The Professor Watchlist will continue monitoring this story. Please send tips and information on Francesca Gino to <a href="mailto:Watchlists@tpusa.com">Watchlists@tpusa.com</a>.

<a href="https://internet3.trincoll.edu/FacProfiles/Default.aspx?fid=1361623" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Davarian Baldwin</a> is the Paul E. Raether Distinguished Professor of American Studies at Trinity College. According to Baldwin’s faculty profile, “[He] is a leading urbanist, historian, and cultural critic. His work largely examines the landscape of global cities through the lens of the African Diasporic experience.”
His profile also states, “Baldwin’s related interests include universities and urban development, the racial foundations of academic thought, intellectual and mass culture, [b]lack radical thought and transnational social movements.”
In May 2021, Baldwin wrote an opinion editorial called “<a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oSzh0qjY17AtwkODSo82AT3NdTnNTDhl/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Why We Should Abolish the Campus Police</a>,” in which he discussed high-profile cases of black people encountering law enforcement. Regarding the death of eight-time convicted criminal George Floyd, who died in Minneapolis Police custody, Baldwin wrote:
“It is almost impossible to read about such unnecessary uses of deadly force by police officers without being reminded of Derek Chauvin’s slow-motion murder of George Floyd … When people took to the streets in the summer [of 2020], there were calls to defund the police or to abolish the current model as a state-sanctioned expression of white supremacy.”
Regarding police presence on college campuses, Baldwin <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oSzh0qjY17AtwkODSo82AT3NdTnNTDhl/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a>:
“College campuses should be ground zero for any attempts at police abolition … Many residents of cities applaud the extra support from campus security … But community groups have begun pushing back amid reports of racial profiling or at least the undue surveillance of nonwhite residents by police tasked with serving the interests of largely white institutions.”
In 2021, Baldwin also published “<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Shadow-Ivory-Tower-Universities-Plundering/dp/1568588925?asin=1568588925&amp;revisionId=&amp;format=4&amp;depth=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In the Shadow of the Ivory Tower</a>,” a book about the struggling relationship between university police and predominantly black neighborhoods. In Chapter One — entitled “When Universities Swallow Cities” — Baldwin stated:
“The profit motive driving higher education goes as far back as the Atlantic slave trade, as historian Craig Steven Wilder has illustrated in his book Ebony and Ivy … Even in controversy, universities across the country are being forced to reckon with their varying but unavoidable role in facilitating the country’s dominant economic systems, including slavery. During the Civil War the federal government explicitly turned to universities as a key driver of economic growth and urban development.”
Baldwin’s claims that the  U.S. turned “explicitly” to universities during the Civil War are <a href="https://eh.net/encyclopedia/the-economics-of-the-civil-war/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">contradicted by recorded history</a>, which shows that the production and exportation of cotton continued to be the driving economic source for the American North and South. Urban development is attributed to increasing modes of transportation, taxes, and land ownership rights. 
The <a href="https://www.archives.gov/milestone-documents/morrill-act" target="_blank" rel="noopener">first legislation</a> designating federal funds for public higher education granted each state up to 30,000 acres and “laid the foundation for a national system of state colleges and universities.” Thus, colleges and universities were a portion, not the exclusive means, of economic growth in the 19th century.
During a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyW2nml0juU" target="_blank" rel="noopener">panel discussion</a> hosted by <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/charleshfdavisiii" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Professor Charles H.F. Davis</a>, Baldwin shared his thoughts on college police presence. Commenting on statistics of campus policing Baldwin stated:
“Just to be clear: 75% of schools — that includes public and private — have campus police. Nearly all carry guns. And about 9 in 10 have arrest and patrol jurisdictions beyond the main campus … The major crimes in campus areas are sexual violence and substance abuse, and sometimes vandalism and assault on the part of students, not so-called ‘locals,’ or ‘residents’ … or ‘townies,’ or whatever code of phrase you want to use for black and brown folk in most cases … But the biggest criminals in campus areas, especially at PWIs [predominantly white institutions] … are predominantly white folks.”

During the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh in the fall of 2018, Fair <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=11369" target="_blank" rel="noopener">launched</a> into a racially tinged tirade on her <a href="https://twitter.com/CChristineFair?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Twitter</a> account, accusing Republicans of enabling a rapist and calling for their castration in a series of tweets, 
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;">“Look at thus(sic) chorus of entitled white men justifying a serial rapist’s arrogant entitlement."</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;">”all of them deserve miserable deaths while feminists laugh as they take their last gasps."</li>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400;">“Bonus: we castrate their corpse and feed them to swine? Yes.”</li>
</ul>
ANTI-LAW ENFORCEMENT

In 2018, Fair was <a href="https://thehoya.com/news/georgetown-professor-accused-calling-german-officer-nazi/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">featured in The Hoya article </a>“Georgetown Professor Accused of Calling German Officer a ‘Nazi.’” 

The publication explained, “The alleged confrontation occurred after an airport security agent pulled Fair aside and summoned a German police officer, as required by law after an X-ray machine at a security checkpoint indicated her luggage might contain explosives.”

It turns out the substances found in Fair’s bags — cosmetics and roll-on deodorant — had exceeded the amount permitted by law enforcement. The Hoya said, “After the police suggested Fair store a roll-on deodorant in her carry-on bag, the police report states Fair reacted aggressively and called the police ‘f–king bastards’ and ‘f–king Nazi police.’”

The Hoya recorded Fair’s response:
“‘The whole thing was a straight-up shakedown. At the end of the day, this officer just did not want a customer service complaint. If I were a white guy, this wouldn’t be happening to me. For example, the cop called me a hippie. Why am I of all people derided as a hippie?’”
Despite corroborating witness statements cited in the police report — as well as accusations that Fair said another passenger had a “Hitler Youth haircut” — Fair denied all allegations. 

After being detained by German police, the report said Fair was fined $260 in legal fees.

That's the work!”

<a href="https://lannan.georgetown.edu/past-guests/michael-eric-dyson/">Michael Eric Dyson</a> is a Professor of Sociology at Georgetown University.

Dyson has<a href="https://www.wglt.org/post/dyson-isu-white-supremacy-sees-resurgence-under-trump-0#stream/0"> alleged</a> that there has been a “resurgence” of white supremacy under a conservative presidency. In an interview with<a href="https://video.foxnews.com/v/5308799067001#sp=show-clips"> Tucker Carlson</a>, he has also asked for whites to pay reparations to black communities to offset America’s legacy of racism. During a<a href="https://www.c-span.org/video/?445812-1/aurea-foundation-hosts-munk-debate-political-correctness"> debate</a> on political correctness in 2018 with Professor Jordan Peterson, Dyson repeatedly referred to Peterson as just a “mean, mad, old, white, man.” 

Just prior to Independence Day 2019, Dyson appeared on<a href="https://www.mediaite.com/politics/michael-eric-dyson-on-betsy-ross-flag-symbolism-why-dont-we-wear-a-swastika-for-july-fourth/"> MSNBC </a>and compared the iconic Betsy Ross Flag to a Nazi Swastika,

“Well, it hails from the Revolutionary period, of course, of this nation’s founding, which was deeply embroiled in, you know, enslavement, of the owners of slaves…..Right-wing white supremacists have used it as a rallying cry for their own cause.” 

Dyson continued,

“Words matter, symbols matter too. Why don’t we wear a swastika for July Fourth? Because I don’t know, it makes a difference.”

Dyson is also associated with the notorious anti-Semite and Nation of Islam leader, Louis Farrakhan. In 2010, Dyson<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ULAThBZKiM"> participated</a> in a roundtable discussion hosted by PBS with Farrakhan and<a href="http://www.finalcall.com/artman/publish/Minister_Louis_Farrakhan_9/article_7248.shtml"> interviewed</a> him the same year about the economic condition of black communities.

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

Mr. <a href="https://gufaculty360.georgetown.edu/s/contact/0031Q00002Ad6npQAB/josh-ruebner">Josh Ruebner</a> is an adjunct faculty member in the <a href="https://justiceandpeace.georgetown.edu/">Program on Justice and Peace</a> at Georgetown University. According to Georgetown's website, the goal of the Justice and Peace Program is to produce “practically useful scholarships on how to create a more just and peaceful world.” In addition to his teaching roles, Ruebner is a Managing Director for the organization <a href="https://www.ampalestine.org/about-amp/staff">American Muslims for Palestine (AMP)</a>.

Mr. Ruebner has served in the Congressional Research Service (CRS), which provides policy analysis on behalf of committees in both the United States House of Representatives and the United States Senate. As a member of the CRS, Mr. Ruebner co-authored <a href="https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metacrs1535/m1/1/high_res_d/RL30713_2001Jan05.pdf">The Current Palestinian Uprising: Al-Aqsa Intifadah</a>, in which he accuses Israel of disproportionate use of force against Palestinians. Ruebner has also <a href="https://joshruebner.com/jewish-anti-occupation-group-lobbies-u-s/">sponsored</a> congressional staff members on a trip to the West Bank to advocate cutting off economic aid to Israel.

In 2018, Mr. Ruebner authored a book titled <a href="https://www.interlinkbooks.com/product/israel/">Israel: Democracy or Apartheid State?</a> In an event for the book’s release hosted by <a href="https://thejerusalemfund.org/category/pc">The Palestine Center</a>—a Palestinian advocacy organization based in Washington, D.C.—Mr. Ruebner <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqvfPNDwF70&amp;ab_channel=TheJerusalemFund%26PalestineCenter">accuses</a> Israel of enacting policies similar to apartheid-era South Africa.

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

<a href="https://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.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5bQgVPl9-xg&amp;ab_channel=PoliticsandProse" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In a separate interview</a> with Elie Mystal—who once <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/nation-correspondent-elie-mystal-us-constitution-actually-trash" target="_blank" rel="noopener">called the U.S. Constitution “trash”</a>—Brown again affirmed that building wealth is inherently connected to race. 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.

Professor Jeff Bernstein, Georgetown University, was a Master of Foreign Service advisory board member. Bernstein made the list after he responded to a Tweet sent out by Allie Stuckey that stated: "The #metoo movement is a symptom of a broken world." Bernstein chose to respond to this Tweet with his own, saying, "Wishing you a #metoo moment. Maybe then you won't be so insensitive." Bernstein has since apologized for the Tweet and has resigned from his position with Georgetown University.

Professor <a href="https://spu.edu/academics/college-of-arts-sciences/physics/faculty-staff/robertson-amy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Amy Robertson</a>, a Research Associate Professor of Physics at Seattle Pacific University, co-authored <a href="https://aapt.scitation.org/doi/10.1119/1.5003737" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Unveiling Privilege to Broaden Participation</a>, a study about male dominance in the field of physics. This study states that “white male privilege pervades the discipline of physics as well as the classrooms in which physics is taught and learned."

Robertson also co-authored a study with Rev. W. Tali Hairston entitled, <a href="https://journals.aps.org/prper/pdf/10.1103/PhysRevPhysEducRes.18.010119" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Observing whiteness in introductory physics: A case study."</a> Research analyses focused on unmasking “whiteness” in physical science programs with results showing physics degrees disproportionately conferred upon white students aged 20-24. Robertson and Hairston also “[focused] on the reproduction of whiteness in an introductory physics classroom."

The Robertson and Hairston study also found that whiteboards “play a role in reconstituting whiteness as social organization…[whiteboards] draw attention to themselves and in this case support the centering of an abstract representation and the person standing next to it, presenting.” In <a href="https://campusreform.org/article?id=19429" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a </a>statement to Campus Reform, Hairston admitted that “whiteboards are not inherently racist,” but their prevalence and collaborative use could “perpetuate racism.”

Although case study results implicate whiteboards as a tool for carrying on an institutional tradition of white supremacy and privilege in higher education, Robertson and Hairston do not provide applicable solutions for the proper usage of whiteboards — or advocate for their complete removal from college classrooms around the country.

<a href="https://www.uta.edu/academics/faculty/profile?username=dalylescha" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Annie Daly</a> is an assistant professor of Literacy Studies at The University of Texas at Arlington. Her faculty profile states that her research “examines how elementary teachers enact antiracist pedagogy by talking about race and racism with their students when teaching reading.”
Daly teaches a variety of <a href="https://www.coursicle.com/uta/professors/Annie+Daly/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">courses</a>, such as Teaching Diverse Learners and Multicultural Literature for Children and Young Adults. The course description for Teaching Diverse Learners says “students will examine education law and models related to diverse learners as well as strategies for working with parents and families of diverse learners.”
According to <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/texas-professor-instructs-elementary-school-teachers-on-how-to-interrogate-whiteness/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The College Fix</a>, Daly instructs elementary teachers to “interrogate whiteness.” In her article, “<a href="https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1086296X221141391" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Race Talk Moves For Racial Literacy in the Elementary Classroom</a>,” Daly argues that “teachers must engage students in ongoing, critical discussions and be proactive in noticing and naming racist ideologies as they surface in classroom talk and texts.” Furthermore, a new analysis referred to as “anchoring” supports “students in moving from surface-level conceptions of race to a deeper understanding of systemic racism.”
Daly developed a study to help teachers talk about racism in the classroom. In the article, she shared how she spent 10 months observing a fourth-grade classroom. Daly described the teacher as a “white cisgender woman” who “developed a yearlong literacy curriculum focused on culture, race, and equity.”
Throughout the school year, Daly reported there were “31 conversations about race and racism, 16 of which occurred during whole-group read-alouds.” Topics covered included “how white ‘founding fathers’ enslaved Africans and African Americans, the possibilities and challenges of the Reconstruction era for Black liberation, and child activism during the civil rights movement…”
“Much more research…is needed at the elementary grade level to understand how children and teachers make sense of race, racism, and antiracism while reading and discussing shared texts.”

<a href="https://english.la.psu.edu/directory/gla22/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gabriel Lorenzo Aguilar</a> is an English Graduate Assistant at Pennsylvania State University’s College of the Liberal Arts. According to his profile, Aguilar “has accepted a tenure-track position in the Technical Writing and Professional Design program at the University of Texas at Arlington. His appointment as assistant professor will begin in Fall 2024.”

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-3595 size-full" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot-2024-04-26-at-2.10.00-PM.png" alt="" width="1018" height="854" />
Aguilar specializes in “Race and Ethnicity Studies,” “Rhetoric and Composition,” and “Theory and Cultural Studies.” He’s also a proponent of providing illegal immigrants with resources that aid their unlawful entry into countries where they have no legal standing. Aguilar’s <a href="https://healthpolicyresearch-scholars.org/scholars/gabriel-lorenzo-aguilar/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">profile</a> on the Health Policy Research Scholars page says:
“[Aguilar’s] research is invested in improving the communication between humanitarian organizations and those who receive humanitarian aid (migrants, refugees, and asylees) … So far, his research has looked at how to improve maps for migrants in need of water, interfaces for translations apps, and the process of locating water states for migrants in need of water.” 
Aguilar’s profile does not encourage migrants to go through legal ports of entry where they would likely have more access to water and basic necessities.

In an<a href="https://ies.ed.gov/blogs/research/post/communicating-with-migrant-communities-an-interview-with-pathways-alum-gabriel-lorenzo-aguilar" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> interview</a> with the Institute of Education Sciences, Aguilar admits that his grandmother was an “undocumented migrant” and commends the people and organizations who helped his family survive as illegal citizens in South Texas. When asked how this background shaped his academic career, Aguilar said:
“That level of sacrifice required communication between the community, nonprofits, and others. I saw younger generations provide translation services to their grandparents, making sure that the older generation understood how to get resources such as Medicaid or subsidized utilities. It was only after I went to college that I learned that this communication had a name: technical communication … It can include things like instructions on how to submit applications for aid or forms of service but has recently expanded to include the communication of marginalized peoples.”
When asked, “What advice would you give Hispanic students and scholars who wish to pursue a career in education research?” Aguilar replied:

<a href="https://lsa.umich.edu/comm/people/regular-faculty/sdoug.html">Dr. Susan Douglas</a>, a professor at University of Michigan, publicized her hate for Republicans in an article from In These Times. She says, “I hate Republicans. I can’t stand the thought of having to spend the next two years watching Mitch McConnell, John Boehner, Ted Cruz, Darrell Issa or any of the legions of other blowhards denying climate change, thwarting immigration reform or championing fetal ‘personhood.’”

University of Michigan

<a href="https://fordschool.umich.edu/faculty/betsey-stevenson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Betsey Stevenson</a> is a Professor of Public Policy and a Professor of Economics at the University of Michigan. Her list of courses taught includes “Microeconomics for Public Policy” and “Economics of the Public Sector.” She also served as Chief Economist of the United States Department of Labor from 2010 to 2011.

In 2018, Stevenson partnered with <a href="https://jdp.princeton.edu/people/hanna-zlotnick" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hannah Zlotnick</a> to research gender ratios in economic textbooks. The university <a href="https://fordschool.umich.edu/news/2018/econ-textbook-study-stevenson-zlotnick-highlights-gender-bias-against-women" target="_blank" rel="noopener">published an article</a> — titled “Econ textbook study by Stevenson, Zlotnick highlights gender bias against women” — that said: 

“The work, which has already garnered significant media attention, exposes an underrepresentation of women in American economics textbooks. Stevenson contends that remedying this issue could be key in closing the field’s stubborn gender gap … Excluding economists from their analysts, Steven and Zlotnick found that 70 percent of people referenced were men.”

The publication <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tIVrw2di5wqiMjoZTp0VDpLrBgwqQWja/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">linked to a textbook presentation</a> authored by Stevenson and Zlotnick. A few examples are found below.
