<a href="https://www.prescott.edu/social-and-environmental-arts-practice-mfa">Patrisse Cullors</a> is the faculty director of Prescott College's MFA degree (Social and Environmental Arts Practice) in Prescott, Arizona. A seasoned organizer, Cullors is also one of the co-founders of the <a href="https://blacklivesmatter.com/">Black Lives Matter</a> (BLM) movement. Along with its parent organization, the <a href="https://m4bl.org/">Movement for Black Lives</a>, the organization is dedicated to the abolition of police, direct action to combat what Patrisse deems as systematic racism, and has maintained an active presence in the nationwide riots that followed the death of George Floyd.

BLM was <a href="https://blacklivesmatter.com/six-years-strong/">founded following the death</a> of Treyvon Martin and the trial of George Zimmerman for his murder. After a jury acquitted Zimmerman of the murder in 2013, Cullors (who refers to Zimmerman as “white-passing” even though he is Hispanic), joined with <a href="https://aliciagarza.com/">Alicia Garza</a> and <a href="https://www.opaltometi.org/">Opal Tometi</a> to form an organization, <a href="https://blacklivesmatter.com/about/">as stated on its website</a>.

“....whose mission is to eradicate white supremacy and build local power to intervene in violence inflicted on black communities by the state and vigilantes.”

BLM came to further prominence following the <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/gunshots-looting-after-grand-jury-in-ferguson-case-does-not-indict-officer-in-michael-brown-shooting">riots in Ferguson, Missouri</a> in reaction to the acquittal of police officer Darren Wilson in the shooting of <a href="https://www.latimes.com/nation/nationnow/la-nn-na-watch-video-michael-brown-robbery-20140815-story.html">robbery-suspect</a> Michael Brown. Although later determined that Brown had attacked the officer, <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/hands-up-dont-shoot-makes-wapos-list-of-outlandish-claims">BLM was instrumental in spreading the lie</a> that Brown was shot at point-blank range with his hands raised.

Although purporting to be a civil-rights organization dedicated to fighting police brutality and white supremacy around the world, Cullors, BLM, and the Movement for Black Lives advocate for positions championed by radical leftists. BLM advocates for the abolishment of prisons, defunding the police, dismantling the nuclear family, cutting off aid to Israel (which they label a racist state), are inspired by the Black Panther Party and other prominent Marxists, and encourages rioting and looting, all the while receiving millions of dollars through organizations connected to the Democratic party.

BLM and its affiliates have been inspired by a litany of figures from the radical Left. Cullors herself has boasted of being <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/06/24/black-lives-matter-founder-mentored-by-ex-domestic-terrorist-who-worked-with-bill-ayers/">mentored by Communist Eric Mann</a> of the Labor/Community Strategy Center. Mann was also a member of Students for a Democratic Society, which was founded by domestic terrorist, <a href="https://www.professorwatchlist.org/professor/williamayers">Bill Ayers</a>. In an interview from 2015, Cullors herself stated that she and her co-founders are “<a href="https://youtu.be/Zp-RswgpjD8?t=337">trained Marxists</a>.”

 “...we actually do have an ideological frame. Myself and Alicia, in particular, are trained organizers. We are trained Marxists.” 

On the podcast <a href="https://youtu.be/0tOm0rOgGUE?t=1726">The People’s Party</a> with antisemitic rapper <a href="https://www.israellycool.com/2016/03/27/rapper-talib-kweli-greene-goes-on-an-antisemitic-rampage-on-twitter/">Talib Kweli</a>,  Cullors described how the <a href="https://www.marxists.org/history/usa/workers/black-panthers/1966/10/15.htm">Black Panther Party’s 10-Point Program</a> inspired BLM’s guiding principles. <a href="http://web.stanford.edu/~ccarson/articles/am_left.htm">The Panthers</a> were a Marxist-Leninist organization, co-led by Huey Newton, whose involvement is <a href="https://www.salon.com/1999/12/13/betty/">suspected in multiple murders</a> allegedly committed by the Panthers. Cullors has also spoken of her affinity for and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiAUYJXv2Yo&amp;ab_channel=NewYorkTimesEvents">appeared at events </a>with <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/2019/01/opposing-honors-for-angela-davis-isnt-racist/">Angela Davis</a> (who wrote the forward to Cullor’s book, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/When-They-Call-You-Terrorist/dp/1250171083">When They Call You a Terrorist)</a>. Davis, who frequently toured and vocally defended the Soviet Union, is an open Marxist and former Communist Party candidate for President, whose firearms were used in a courtroom shoot-out in 1970 that left 4 dead.

Cullors and the Movement for Black Lives have routinely condemned the nation of Israel. In their policy platform, the Movement for Black Lives <a href="https://m4bl.org/policy-platforms/invest-divest/">describes Israel as a genocidal, apartheid state</a>;

“....approximately 3 billion dollars in US aid is allocated to Israel, a state that practices systematic discrimination and has maintained a military occupation of Palestine for decades.”

“The US justifies and advances its global war on terror via its alliance with Israel and is complicit in the genocide taking place against the Palestinian People...it makes US citizens complicit in the abuses committed by the Israeli government. Israel is an apartheid state with over 50 laws on the books that sanction discrimination against the Palestinian people.” 

“Every day, Palestinians are forced to walk through military checkpoints along the US-funded apartheid wall.”  

Cullors has made her anti-Israel stances a focal point in her activism. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AZXNypWKbE&amp;t=1050s&amp;ab_channel=AlJazeeraEnglish=38m28s">She has bragged</a> about how one of BLM’s first delegations was sent to Israel, in which Cullors used the trip to <a href="https://www.ebony.com/news/dream-defenders-black-lives-matter-ferguson-reps-take-historic-trip-to-palestine/">degenerate Israel as an apartheid state</a>. She claimed,

“This is an apartheid state. We can’t deny that and if we do deny it we are part of the Zionist violence.”

<a href="https://youtu.be/mQ8z-gGMSIY?t=4183">Speaking at the US Campaign for Palestinian rights</a>, she accused Israeli’s of “Jewish supremacism” and oppressing “black folks in Palestine.”

“Zionists have used anti-Semitic rhetoric to uphold Jewish supremacism and the illegal state of Israel.” 

One of the most striking aspects of BLM’s platform is the call to <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/black-lives-matter-disrupt-nuclear-family-website">abolish the nuclear family</a>.

Their official website claims, “We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and “villages” that collectively care for one another, especially our children, to the degree that mothers, parents, and children are comfortable.” 

Core to BLM’s actions is the central belief that America is an inherently racist nation. On a number of occasions, Cullors has described how black Americans are at a fundamental disadvantage and are actively discriminated against in America. She has also indicated that in order to fight racism, black Americans have to separate themselves from other whites.

Rather than citing specific acts of racism, Cullors states that “all white Americans have inherent white supremacy” <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OE0a87wHbA&amp;ab_channel=HOT97=23m58s">during a radio interview in New York</a>. She claimed that “...if you’re white...you have white supremacy in you, you have racism in you, that’s just what happens with whiteness”

In a separate interview, Cullors suggested that black people have to re-assert their “blackness” in order to <a href="https://youtu.be/Zp-RswgpjD8?t=546">resist becoming white</a>.

“The US is very clever at turning other groups white, and making them white, and we’ve seen that throughout history when groups were not white and when the white power structure was threatened, they figured out a way to make groups white. And I think as we move forward we have to figure out political alignments that hold blackness as a broader framework than just sort of the skin we are in, but as a political statement.” 

To Cullors, revered American institutions like law enforcement are the pillars of systematic racism. She, along with BLM, regularly vilify police as racists who disproportionately target African-Americans. Following the death of George Floyd, BLM released an official statement <a href="https://blacklivesmatter.com/defundthepolice/">alleging that police don’t protect black communities</a>. The statement read:

“George Floyd’s death was a breaking point - an all too familiar reminder that for Black people, law enforcement doesn’t protect or save lives. They often threaten and take them.”   

BLM then encouraged the reader to sign a petition below the statement that called for a defunding of police departments nation-wide:

“We call for an end to the systematic racism that allows this culture of corruption to go unchecked and our lives to be taken. We call for a national defunding of police. ” 

In calling for the defunding of police, the <a href="https://m4bl.org/policy-platforms/end-the-war-on-black-communities/">policy platform</a> for the Movement for Black Lives actually equates funding law enforcement with an increase of rapes committed in black communities.

“The investment in punishment over prevention has not made us any safer. On the contrary, it has contributed to skyrocketing levels of police killings, rapes, and sexual assaults, physical violence, harassment, and criminalization in Black communities.” 

The Movement for Black Lives has listed as a resource the <a href="https://www.thejerichomovement.com/home">National Jericho Movement</a>, under their <a href="https://m4bl.org/policy-platforms/political-power/">End Criminalization of Political Activity Policy Brief</a>. The National Jericho Movement is an organization that <a href="https://www.thejerichomovement.com/about">advocates for the release</a> of convicted cop killers, including <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/dec/22/the-never-ending-saga-of-cop-killer-mumia-abu-jama/">Mumia Abu-Jamal</a>, <a href="http://www.danielpipes.org/97/the-curious-case-of-jamil-al-amin">Jamil Abdullah Al-Amin</a>, and <a href="https://newyork.cbslocal.com/2020/09/23/anthony-bottom-convicted-of-killing-2-nypd-officers-in-1971-ambush-granted-parole/">Anthony Bottom</a>.

Cullors herself has repeatedly called for abolishing the police. In an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYa1WjHtzKc&amp;ab_channel=NowThisNews">interview with NowThis News</a>, she called for defunding police departments and that law enforcement is “rarely used” as a source of justice for the black community. She stated that defunding the police is the best available option because officers are trained to use force first, and that cannot be untrained. Answering the obvious question as to what would replace law enforcement, Cullors suggested that social workers would be sent to settle cases of domestic violence

When she was invited to <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/07/31/black-lives-matter-founder-dnc-platform-must-call-for-defunding-police-abolishing-ice/">address the Democratic National Committee</a>, Cullors used the platform to advocate for abolishing the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA), Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). and all prisons and federal detention centers.

“Until and unless our leaders become a signatory to the BREATHE Act — to legislation that eliminates the federal government’s ability to give multi-million dollar grants to militarize police forces; dismantles punitive like ICE, Border Patrol, and the DEA; ends the use of surveillance systems being used to target protesters, and bans the use of police agencies to suppress political dissent — the Democratic Party of today will be remembered as the party of complicity.”

Writing in the <a href="https://harvardlawreview.org/2019/04/abolition-and-reparations-histories-of-resistance-transformative-justice-and-accountability/">Harvard Law Review,</a>  she further detailed her positions and so-called “struggle” against “racism, patriarchy, and capitalism.” Going further than just condemning law enforcement agencies, Cullors designates the United States as the premier violator of human rights in the world. She wrote, “The United States, the world’s largest jailer, is also the world’s greatest perpetrator of war and the most extensive purveyor of human rights atrocities at home and abroad, laying claim to over 800 military bases around the world.”  

Seemingly written as a warning, Cullors describes exactly how she will confront the “white supremacy” that she considers embedded in the fabric of our society. She continued, “Abolition calls on us to not only to destabilize, deconstruct, and demolish oppressive systems, institutions, and practices, but also to repair histories of harm across the board. Our task is not only to abolish prisons, policing, and militarization, which are wielded in the name of “public safety” and “national security.” We must also demand reparations and incorporate reparative justice in our vision for society and community building in the twenty-first century.”  

BLM has been <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/09/16/study-up-to-95-percent-of-2020-u-s-riots-are-linked-to-black-lives-matter/">implicated in a number of riots</a> around the country following the death of George Floyd. A report by the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project stated that 95% of riots over the summer of 2020 were linked to BLM activism or had BLM activists present. The resulting riots were the largest in American history, <a href="https://fee.org/articles/george-floyd-riots-caused-record-setting-2-billion-in-damage-new-report-says-here-s-why-the-true-cost-is-even-higher/#:~:text=Only%20now%20are%20we%20beginning,%241%20billion%20to%20%242%20billion.">causing an estimated $2 Billion in damages</a> and 47 deaths.

Despite the tragedy, Cullors has been, at best, ambivalent towards the destruction caused by riots. Hosted by Seth Myers, <a href="https://www.nbc.com/late-night-with-seth-meyers/video/ramy-youssef-and-patrisse-cullors-on-how-to-help-the-fight-against-police-brutality/4179038">Cullors dismissed looting and rioting</a>, excusing it as paling in comparison to the destruction caused by police.  On the program, she stated,

“I think, and what I’m often describing to people is, we are very obsessed with property damage. Property damage is seen as sort of like the pinnacle of destruction and violence, and we rarely hear the media focus on police violence or police terror...And so there’s this conservation that I think is an uneven conversation in the media about people who are looting versus the infrastructure and the structure of racism and the police officers who continue to cause havoc and chaos in our communities.” 

Patrice has seemingly advocated for rioting. Interrupting Martin O’ Malley at Netroots Nation in 2015, <a href="https://youtu.be/chXJq-VaXXs?t=615">Cullors began chanting slogans</a> that now, with hindsight, seem ominous:

“If I die in police custody, avenge my death, by any means necessary!” 

“If I die in police custody, burn everything down! Because no building is worth more than my life! Because that's the only way motherf****** like you will listen!”  

This is not the only documented pattern of BLM's destructive impact on communities. Since 2014, researchers have identified a resurgence of homicides in inner-cities where police have withdrawn their presence following intense scrutiny by BLM activists. Coined, "<a href="https://www.city-journal.org/ferguson-effect-inner-cities">The Ferguson Effect</a>," thousands of additional deaths of black men and women have been attributed to this sudden absence of law enforcement.

Cullors and her other co-founders have accepted millions in donations since BLM’s inception. <a href="https://capitalresearch.org/article/tides-center-takes-control-of-black-lives-matter-global-network/">Publicly available documents</a> reveal that BLM accumulated more than $3 million in assets in 2019. This is before BLM officially joined <a href="https://www.tides.org/">The Tides Center</a>, a left-leaning organization that reported more than $636 million in revenues. As an official project under the umbrella of the Tides Foundation rather than a stand-alone organization, Cullors and BLM will now be shielded from the same IRS scrutiny that many non-profit organizations face.

Notable donors to the Tides Center include <a href="https://www.city-journal.org/html/connoisseur-chaos-14954.html">George Soros</a> and the <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/08/31/foundation-with-biden-campaign-ties-funding-leftist-agitators-on-u-s-streets/">Ford Foundation</a>. Donations to BLM are handled by <a href="https://www.opensecrets.org/pacs/lookup2.php?cycle=2018&amp;strID=C00401224">ActBlue</a>, a progressive fundraising platform that is set to raise more than $2.5 billion for left-leaning causes in 2020 alone.

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

George Ciccariello

<a href="https://www.wm.edu/sites/dhp/faculty/ciccariello-maher-george.php">Dr. George Ciccariello-Maher</a> is a Visiting Scholar of Decolonizing Humanities and Modern Languages and Literatures at the College of William and Mary. He previously taught in the Department of History and Politics at Drexel University.
From the College of William and Mary&#8217;s website, his work at the Decolonizing Humanities Project is <a href="https://www.wm.edu/sites/dhp/decoloniality/index.php">described</a> as exploring, “how colonization, modernity, capitalism, and, most recently, neoliberalism has displaced an array of modes of living, thinking and being.  Decoloniality reveals “the dark side of modernity” and how it is built “on the backs” of “others.”
Ciccarello first came to notoriety for his racially inflammatory statements on twitter. On Christmas of 2016, he <a href="https://www.inquirer.com/philly/news/Drexel-officials-Professor-George-Ciccariello-Mahers-White-Genocide-tweet-was-utterly-reprehensible.html">tweeted</a> out,
“All I want for Christmas is White Genocide,”
and,
“To clarify: when the whites were massacred during the Haitian Revolution, that was a  good thing indeed.”
He also tweeted out,
“Some guy gave up his first-class seat for a uniformed soldier. People are thanking him. I’m trying not to vomit or yell about Mosul.”
When Ciccariello was confronted by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndkvgmGIQHQ">Tucker Carlson</a> over his tweets, he only proceeded to double-down. In the following exchange, he defended the academic veracity of his tweets by claiming, “performance art is scholarship.”
Ciccariello doesn’t shy away from utilizing violence to accomplish his radical beliefs. In an op-ed for <a href="https://www.salon.com/2015/05/04/riots_work_wolf_blitzer_and_the_washington_post_completely_missed_the_real_lesson_from_baltimore/">Salon</a>, he praised the riots that had engulfed Baltimore in 2015 in an article titled “Riots Work.” He wrote, “without the threat of insurgency in the streets, no charges would ever have been brought in the murder of Freddie Gray.” Obviously not a proponent of police, Ciccariello openly <a href="https://www.salon.com/2015/04/24/we_must_disband_the_police_body_cameras_arent_enough_only_radical_change_will_stop_cops_who_kill/">advocates</a> for the abolishment of police forces, describing them as, “originally slavecatchers.”
When not calling for the disbandment of our law enforcement, Ciccariello is an ardent defender of the socialist regime in Venezuela. He regularly <a href="https://www.counterpunch.org/2013/04/12/thatcher-is-dead-long-live-chavez/">praises</a> Hugo Chavez and has bizarrely <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhYz1owM-uA&amp;feature=youtu.be">claimed</a> that Venezuela does not have corrupt elections.
Ciccariello doesn’t shy away from violent groups as well. In order to fight white-nationalism, Ciccarello called on Americans to embrace the radical group ANTIFA in an interview with <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTv_hqjrmi8&amp;feature=youtu.be">Democracy Now</a> following the El Paso mass shooting. Although committed by a stated white nationalist, in the same interview Ciccariello placed the blame on Donald Trump for the deaths, claiming that his rhetoric on immigrants inspired the shooter’s rampage.  Ciccariello made similar accusations in a prior <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTv_hqjrmi8&amp;feature=youtu.be">interview</a> about the Texas Church Massacre, alluding that “whiteness” and Trump’s stoking of white victimhood was to blame for the murders.

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

&nbsp;
Rubel’s views drew <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=15409">wide-spread attention</a> after she suggested in a <a href="https://twitter.com/Laurie_Rubel/status/1290554158421073920">tweet</a> that teaching that math “reeks” of white supremacy.
&nbsp;
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-826 size-full" src="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Screen-Shot-2020-08-28-at-3.37.08-PM.png" alt="" width="593" height="538" srcset="https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Screen-Shot-2020-08-28-at-3.37.08-PM.png 593w, https://backend.professorwatchlist.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Screen-Shot-2020-08-28-at-3.37.08-PM-300x272.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 593px) 100vw, 593px" />
&nbsp;
Her tweet was not designed to be hyperbolic in any sense. Rubel believes that white supremacy is firmly ingrained in subjects like math, and regularly reinforced in the classroom. As the co-author of <a href="https://www.researchgate.net/publication/331982850_The_Soft_Bigotry_of_Low_Expectations_And_Its_Role_in_Maintaining_White_Supremacy_through_Mathematics_Education">The Soft Bigotry of Low Expectations</a>, Rubel posits that white people have developed a racial and structural advantage in education that is consistently maintained through the teaching of mathematics. She believes that concepts like suggesting America is a meritocracy, or the idea that individuals are rewarded for hard work are inherently racist towards black students. White supremacy is no more evident, she claims, than through the ideas of “meritocracy” and “color blindness”:
“&#8230;the rhetoric of meritocracy implies that success results from hard work or talent and is not a function of the myriad of institutional structures that mediate opportunities and distribute rewards according to race and social background.”    
“Colorblindness, or the avoidance of or denial of signifying students&#8217; races in curriculum, classrooms, and schools, ignores the causes and impact of enduring racial stratification.”  
Rubel’s central thesis is that both “tools of whiteness” and subjects like math effectively disenfranchise students of color. Her argument is that racial disparities in students&#8217; scores are not because of behavior, but due to systematic racism and society’s tendency to attribute poor performance to the former, and resultant refusal to latter, reinforces a system of oppression.
As if anticipating the forthcoming criticism, she alleges that critiques of her position are emblematic of racism itself. Rubel states that her critics are “blame shifting” and attempting to ignore blatant white supremacy,
“One way that white supremacists counter critiques of racism is through a tactic known as “blame-shifting.” This tactic is a self-defense maneuver in which the white supremacists defend themselves against the charge of racism by shifting that charge onto the critique itself.” 
Commenting on Twitter, she claimed that she was a victim of “white-nationalists” criticizing her views.

While taking a soon apparent shot at our nation’s borders, she further elaborates on this by employing queer theory in, “<a href="https://www.researchgate.net/publication/340000097_Queering_Mathematics_Disrupting_Binary_Oppositions_in_Mathematics_Pre-service_Teacher_Education">Queering Mathematics</a>.”  <a href="https://www.oxfordreference.com/view/10.1093/oi/authority.20110803100358573">Queer theory</a> is an outgrowth of critical race theory, that seeks to deconstruct traditional standards of sexuality and gender in the West.
Rubel states that queer theory can be used to deconstruct or “queer” borders that both exist between countries and within classrooms and mathematics, as both are the “site of physical, social, and cultural marginalization.” To Rubel, one example of a border is the genders assigned to students,
“Conventional borders around sex, gender, and sexuality maintain these forms of marginalization and oppression that often leads to violence in schools.”
In addition to racism, she claims that toxic masculinity is inherent in mathematics, rendering it inaccessible for women:
“The masculinization of mathematics can be understood as an exclusionary border for girls and women&#8230;because to choose to participate in mathematics means to be comfortable and to welcome participating and performing in a masculine space.”
Rational and objective thinking are derided as purely “masculine” as well. The reliance on “binary thinking” (or what is right or wrong) that is inherent in mathematics is claimed by Rubel to reinforce “borders,” between race and gender.
In order to deconstruct math and its borders, Rubel advocates “queering” math to address more social justice issues. She hopes by dismantling math, the subject will be moved away from concepts like the existence of “only one right answer” and towards more subjective “lived experiences” of students.
Rubel is very open about communicating her politics in the classroom, as it is evidenced by her tweets admitting so. When asked in a tweet what her optimal classrooms look like, Rubel revealed that she lectures her students that police regularly execute black Americans while on duty.

&nbsp;
Rubel has written extensively on using the classroom to push political ends. In an academic paper titled, “<a href="https://www.researchgate.net/publication/336769522_Classrooms_as_Laboratories_of_Democracy_for_Social_Transformation_The_Role_of_Data_Literacy">Classrooms as Laboratories of Democracy for Social Transformation</a>,” she asserts that classrooms can be used to imbed left-wing issues into her students:
“&#8230;we outlined where data literacy is part of a collective movement toward transformation and social change.” 
Another aspect of Rubel’s envisioned social transformation is the redefining of words that she disapproves of.

<a href="https://www.csustan.edu/ppa/asad-abukhalil">As’ad Abukhalil</a> is a professor of Political Science, Public Administration, and Leadership Studies at California State University, Stanislaus. He has repeatedly espoused anti-Israel sentiments, support of BDS, and explicit antisemitism.
During the Coronavirus outbreak, Abukhalil <a href="https://twitter.com/asadabukhalil/status/1236722475687227392">postulated</a> that Israel would use the pandemic as a precursor to placing Arabs in concentration camps. He wrote, &#8220;Israel will—I am sure—have different medical procedures for Jews and non-Jews. Non-Jews will be put in mass prisons.&#8221;

As noted by the watchdog site <a href="https://canarymission.org/professor/Asad_Abukhalil">Canary Mission</a>, Abukhalil has advocated for the destruction of Israel on numerous occasions. During a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKmRSG8MDx0&amp;feature=youtu.be&amp;t=21m56s">speech</a> at the University of Edinburgh, Abukhalil spoke about the dismantlement of Israel, saying, “My message to you is undiluted and unambiguous; if you want peace&#8230;that can only happen with the demise of Israel. With the dismantlement of the State of Israel…”
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xb4F8JpUL8&amp;feature=youtu.be&amp;t=12m27s">During a 2013 panel</a> in Germany, he lauded the radical jihadist group Hezbollah and was subsequently applauded by those in attendance: “What drove the Israelis out of Lebanon, humiliatingly, was a non-peaceful struggle, against Israel, which was launched in 1978 by Communist Lebanese, secular Lebanese, and later was undertaken by Islamist, mostly by Hezbollah among others, and that is what drove Israel for the first time ever from an Arab territory without obtaining or forcing a peace agreement on that country.”
Abukhalil is on record numerous times expressing support for the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement. He has <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSkI2T_9gCk&amp;feature=youtu.be&amp;t=3m20s">explicitly stated</a> that it is his “wish” that BDS will lead to the destruction of Israel and subsequent replacement with an Arab state, “&#8230;.they will say that I said that the aim of BDS is the elimination of Zionism in Palestine and the liberation of all of Palestine. I never said that. I wish that was true.” 
In the same speech at the University of Texas, Abukhalil <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSkI2T_9gCk&amp;feature=youtu.be&amp;t=10s">lamented</a> how unpopular his message was with American audiences, claiming that  “&#8230;there have been limits on expression about Palestine in this country and these restrictions and the parameters of debate about Palestine have only gotten worse over the years since I came to this country…” 
Abukhalil seamlessly substitutes “jews” for “Zionists” at multiple points during his lecture. He later <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSkI2T_9gCk&amp;feature=youtu.be&amp;t=2m35s">expanded on this assertion</a>, claiming that the former is actively silencing his freedom to advocate for the destruction of Israel, “The Zionists have become quite effective in intimidating people in academia, in the media, as well as in, they have done their work in intimidating people in Congress…”  Abukhalil has previously made similar <a href="https://www.memri.org/tv/lebanese-american-professor-asad-abukhalil-incitement-saudi-media-ignored-due-israeli-alliance">statements</a>, claiming that “zionists” attempt to silence his “hatred” towards Israel. He claims that “The Zionists want to muzzle us so that we won&#8217;t oppose the wars, violence, or hatred of Israel.”
Although Abukhalil seems to value the importance of the First Amendment, a closer examination reveals that he only defends freedom of speech when it immediately benefits him or his cause. In 2006, riots engulfed the Muslim world after a Danish paper published a series of cartoons depicting the prophet Muhammad. Abukhalil appeared on Democracy Now! to defend the riots. During the segment, he refrained from explicitly condemning the riots and attempted to justify the actions of the rioters. He even <a href="https://www.democracynow.org/2006/2/7/freedom_of_speech_or_incitement_to=43m49s">justified </a>the violence, stating,  “&#8230;This is why the entire defense in the name of freedom of speech doesn’t sell very much in the Arab world. People very much know that offenses against Muslims and Arabs are often treated as defensible because they are in the name of freedom of speech…”  
This is not the first time that Abukhalil has attempted to draw a moral equivalence between the West and radicals in the Middle East. In a 2019 interview with The Real News Network, he lambasted the “arrogance” of the United States for <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=97&amp;v=Ivt4CDgu4LE&amp;feature=emb_logo">declaring the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization</a>. He accused the US of killing more civilians than the Taliban, stating, “So when the US is killing more civilians than the Taliban, it certainly should not have the moral authority to judge and label an organization on the basis of their terrorism.”

China is the greatest existential threat that the United States currently faces. Through military, governmental, and financial fronts, the authoritarian Chinese government seeks to supplant the United States as the world’s sole superpower. None of their tactics may be more perfidious than the placement of Confucius Institutes on campuses across the country. Currently, 64 Institutes operate at American universities, high schools, and even elementary schools, serving as focal points of China’s espionage against our country.

Peter Beinart

<a href="https://www.journalism.cuny.edu/faculty/peter-beinart/">Peter Beinart</a> is a Professor of Journalism and Political Science at the City University of New York. He is known as an active critic of the state Israel, supports the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) campaign, and blames Hamas terrorism on the state of Israel.
Beinart has <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/19/opinion/to-save-israel-boycott-the-settlements.html?_r=1&amp;ref=opinion&amp;pagewanted=all">advocated</a> for the BDS movement to serve as a way to influence Israeli policy making. Beinart has gone so far as to suggest sanctions be put on any products made by Israelis in the West Bank. 
While a fierce critic of Israel, Beinart often excuses Islamic terrorism as understandable and morally equivalent counter-reaction to Israel. In fact, he even goes so far in his book, The Crisis of Zionism, to complement the terrorist organization Hamas. He writes, “[Hamas] has in recent years issued several new documents, which are more compatible with a two-state solution.” 
In a <a href="https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2019/08/19/rich-lowry-peter-beinart-debate-omar-tlaib-israel-trip-sot-lead-vpx.cnn">viral</a> debate with National Review editor Rich Lowry, Beinart was quick to defend Congresswomen Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar after they had been denied entry into Israel on account for their support of the BDS movement. When Lowry pointed out that each were traveling with known extremist groups that support terrorism, Beinart began frantically shouting over Lowry, claiming that terrorism is only response to the violenct Israel perpetrates.
Recently, Beinart wrote in the <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/08/opinion/israel-annexation-two-state-solution.html">New York Times</a> that he no longer believes that Israel has the right to exist as a Jewish State.

Beinart has gone so far as to suggest sanctions be put on any products made by Israelis in the West Bank. 

While a fierce critic of Israel, Beinart often excuses Islamic terrorism as understandable and morally equivalent counter-reaction to Israel. In fact, he even goes so far in his book, The Crisis of Zionism, to complement the terrorist organization Hamas. He writes, “[Hamas] has in recent years issued several new documents, which are more compatible with a two-state solution.” 

In a <a href="https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2019/08/19/rich-lowry-peter-beinart-debate-omar-tlaib-israel-trip-sot-lead-vpx.cnn">viral</a> debate with National Review editor Rich Lowry, Beinart was quick to defend Congresswomen Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar after they had been denied entry into Israel on account for their support of the BDS movement. When Lowry pointed out that each were traveling with known extremist groups that support terrorism, Beinart began frantically shouting over Lowry, claiming that terrorism is only response to the violenct Israel perpetrates.

Recently, Beinart wrote in the <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/08/opinion/israel-annexation-two-state-solution.html">New York Times</a> that he no longer believes that Israel has the right to exist as a Jewish State.

<a href="https://gws.wisc.edu/staff/schalk-sami/">Dr. Sami Schalk</a> is an Associate Professor in the Department of Gender and Women’s Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. According to her university biography, Schalk’s work is centered on “disability, race, and gender in contemporary American literature and culture.” 
Although previously notable for performance twerking on the stage with the pop-star Lizzo, Schalk has risen to prominence recently due to her racially inflammatory remarks and sympathy towards rioters tearing down statues.
In a now-deleted exchange and series of tweets, Schalk <a href="https://campusreform.org/?ID=14268">stated</a> that white people can’t decide what is racist: 
“This is your semi-annual reminder that white people do not get to determine what is &amp; is not racist. If a person of color calls you racist, it’s probably bc [because] you did something racist whether you can recognize it or not. Now back to your regular scheduled programming.” 
She later tweeted that only white people cannot live in the sun, writing, &#8220;Out of the sun. You know they got destroyed by the thing that keeps everything else on this planet alive&#8230;&#8221;
Schalk is also a vocal advocate of the riots that destroyed statues in Madison. In a series of tweets, she vaguely <a href="https://www.thecollegefix.com/u-wisconsin-madison-professor-cheers-protesters-tearing-down-statues-honoring-abolitionist-womens-progress/">threatened</a> that the “uprising” would continue if the rioters demands weren’t met. If there was any ambiguity to her beliefs, she then tweeted that people don’t have anything else to do “but disrupt the f*** out of this city” and that the city of Madison should defund the police.
