<a href="http://www.purdue.edu/newsroom/purduetoday/purdueprofiles/2010/100914_ProfileLee.html">Alvin Lee</a> is a Human Resources Training Specialist at Purdue University. In Management 301, Lee taught his class that the phrase, “America is a melting pot” is a microaggression. He also added phrases such as “Where are you from,” “There is only one race, the human race,” “Everyone can succeed in society if they work hard enough,” and “I believe the most qualified person should get the job” to the list of offensive statements. He claims that white people can not be “color blind” and should be forced to recognize race. Instead of attempting to encourage unity, he would rather encourage divide and play “diversity bingo” to highlight our racial differences.

Professor Jonathan Graubart, is a political science professor at San Diego State University. He recently made a highly inappropriate comment after finding out about Sen. John McCain’s brain Tumor, stating,“McCain is a war criminal and, more to the point, someone who as a politician has championed horrifying action and been lousy on state commitment to public health. So dying or not, he’s a risible public figure.” He also took this chance to criticize his views on health insurance, and bash him, using him as an apparent contrast to Einstein, saying that, after comparing the two, “this analogy should not be taken too seriously. McCain is certainly no Einstein and I don’t just mean on brains. Einstein had very appealing humanist instincts, as a socialist, antiwar, anti-imperialist, and anti-statist Zionist."

According to The Daily Beast &#8220;In 1984, Boudin, a member of the Weather Underground, a violent, oafish association of upper-class “revolutionaries,” pled guilty to second-degree murder in association with the infamous 1981 Brinks armored car robbery in Nyack, New York.

Williams, in an editorial for The Nation, wrote &#8221; the history of the right to bear arms is shaped by exclusionary privilege based on race and gender. It is almost exclusively white men who may “reasonably” carry firearms to protests outside Target or political conventions&#8221;, although still 20% of Hispanic and African-American homes own guns according to Pew research.

Dr. Rashid Khalidi, a Professor of Arab Studies at Columbia, laced a criticism of Trump&#8217;s foreign policy with Anti-Semitism. Discussing Trump&#8217;s position on Israel, Khalidi said &#8220;They have a vision whereby there is no such thing as the Palestinians. They have a vision whereby international law doesn’t exist. They have a vision whereby the United States can unilaterally cancel a decision of the United Nations. And unfortunately these people infest the Trump transition team, these people are going to infest our government as of January 20th. And they are hand in glove with a similar group of people in the Israeli government and in Israeli political life who think that whatever they think can be imposed on reality.&#8221;
