<a href="https://dornsife.usc.edu/cf/faculty-and-staff/faculty.cfm?pid=1008403">Darry Sragow</a>, a professor at the University of Southern California, attacked Republicans during a political science class. He angrily called them old, white, racist, “losers” and encouraged illegally suppressing Republican votes.

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.

Amin Husain

<a href="https://gallatin.nyu.edu/people/faculty/amh20.html">Amin Husain</a> is a part-time faculty member at New York University and the Pratt Institute. According to the university’s website, Husain’s work focuses on “resistance and liberation, movement generated theory and practice.” 
Husain is also confounded and directs the NYC-based activist group, “<a href="https://decolonizethisplace.org/">Decolonize This Place</a>” (DTP).  According to their website, DTP events center around “Indigenous Struggle, Black Liberation, Free Palestine, Global Wage Workers, and De-Gentrification.”
Husain and DTP are known for their extreme rhetoric and aggressive confrontations with law enforcement. Husain and DTP utilize ANTIFA style-tactics during protests. The <a href="https://decolonizethisplace.org/">homepage</a> of DTP regularly features videos of burning police vehicles. 
Prior to the Museum of Natural History’s decision to remove their statue of Theodore Roosevelt, Husain joined a chorus of activists demanding that the statue be removed. DTP itself <a href="https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c5e0c57d86cc9226827c754/t/5ee7ad184833d0007a2078fd/1592241433767/How+To+Take+Down+A+Monument_Poster.jpg">posted</a> a detailed graphic with instructions on toppling statues. 
In January, DTP posted the following graphic for an upcoming <a href="https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=14391">protest</a> against the NYP. The damage from the protests led by Husain resulted in 13 arrests and over $100,000 in <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/02/15/nyu-professor-founded-anarchist-group-that-attacked-subways-last-month/">damages</a> to the NYC subway system.
As a member of NYC Solidarity With Palestine, Husain is known for using his position to entwine his anti-police and anti-Israel views. Husain projected his radicalism at the June “No To Annexation” rally, hosted by the anti-Israel group <a href="https://www.wolpalestine.com/about">Within Our Lifetimes</a>. 
As a featured speaker, Husain addressed the assembled crowd, declaring:  “The police that are around us are not our friends. You should not speak to them. They are our enemy. They are an impediment to the liberation of Palestine…..When I saw that precinct burn, I thought I was closer to Palestine. When I see an NYPD cop car burn &#8211; I say we are waking up a revolutionary country.” 
At an Al-Quds Day rally in 2016, Husain spoke <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1lhMCj4ESw&amp;feature=youtu.be&amp;t=325">glowingly</a> of Islamic Jihadhists:  “(We are) proud Muslims fighting for justice, and in all the ways possible, and yes, jihadis, jihadis in all the ways possible.”

new-york-university-2

New York University

<a href="http://www.med.nyu.edu/pophealth/faculty/caplaa01">Dr. Arthur Caplan</a> is a Distinguished Professor of Bioethics at New York University. Caplan argued in  2015 that Trump’s tactics for gaining support were just like Hitler’s! Caplan argued that Trump’s immigration plan “should be viewed in the repugnant tradition of Hitler.” He told Campus Reform “The greatest danger is that a man willing to use racism to gain political support gets elected and then shapes his policies on poverty, immigration, criminal justice, and jobs on the basis of his blatantly and dangerous racist views.” Ironically, Caplan previously criticized people who used the Nazi analogy in bioethics debates.

<a href="http://gallatin.nyu.edu/people/faculty/flr207.html">Dr. Frank Roberts</a>, a professor at New York University, warned of “Jewish elites” controlling the media, a favorite trope of anti-Semites.  He tweeted “Its crucial for the public to realize that NBC/MSNBC,The NYTimes,US News &amp; World Report, &amp; the NY Daily News are all owned by Jewish elites” and “Speaking out against Israel's massacre &amp; Jewish elites' monopoly of the American free press is not anti-Semitic. #Gaza, #Flotilla, #OilSpill.”

<a href="http://steinhardt.nyu.edu/faculty/Mark_Crispin_Miller">Dr. Mark Crispin Miller</a>, a professor at New York University warned that President Bush was spreading propaganda in order to form a theocracy in the United States. He also compared Bush to Hitler, saying “All the major war-drives in modern history... in Germany, in the Soviet Union, and in the Middle East -- have been impelled by people who believed that they were at risk, that they were being persecuted, that they faced annihilation. Hitler actually believed that 'world Jewry' threatened Germany, and that his bloody enterprise was a means of self-defense against the Jews. We know all too well that al-Qaeda's people universally regard the Jews and Christians as plotting to wipe out Islam. And the Christo-fascist types now in control of the United States believe that they're the victims of non-Christians."

<a href="https://as.nyu.edu/content/nyu-as/as/faculty/ulrich-c-baer.html">Dr. Ulrich Baer</a> is a Professor of Comparative Literature at New York University. He wrote an editorial in the New York Times supporting the suppression of free speech on college campuses. He claimed "The idea of freedom of speech does not mean a blanket permission to say anything anybody thinks. It means balancing the inherent value of a given view with the obligation to ensure that other members of a given community can participate in discourse as fully recognized members of that community."

harvard-university

Harvard University

<a href="http://ethics.harvard.edu/people/danielle-allen">Dr. Danielle Allen</a> is a Professor of Ethics at Harvard. She said that the rise of Donald Trump is just like the rise of Hitler.

<a href="http://hls.harvard.edu/faculty/directory/10906/Tushnet">Mark Tushnet</a>, a Law Professor at Harvard University, asked liberals to begin treating Christians and conservatives like Nazis. In a blog post, he claimed that Christians and conservatives have lost, and the primary question now is “How to deal with the losers.”

<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 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 has 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 the preventing the implementation of authentic socialism in places like Venezuela.

Perhaps the most disturbing example of Dr. West’s radical beliefs in 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 civilians 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.

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. China has spent hundreds of millions of dollars to indoctrinate students with state-sponsored, communist propaganda, matched by university funds that are enabled by your hard-earned tax dollars.
Turning Point USA is standing up to the Chinese Communist Party. Through our China on Campus initiative, Turning Point USA is highlighting the infiltration of our educational institutions and halting the Chinese government in its tracks. We will locate, identify, and expose every school and professor that receives funding from the Chinese government. Through our efforts, Turning Point USA aims to close every Confucius Institute on American campuses for good.

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. China has spent hundreds of millions of dollars to indoctrinate students with state-sponsored, communist propaganda, matched by university funds that are enabled by your hard-earned tax dollars.

Turning Point USA is standing up to the Chinese Communist Party. Through our China on Campus initiative, Turning Point USA is highlighting the infiltration of our educational institutions and halting the Chinese government in its tracks. We will locate, identify, and expose every school and professor that receives funding from the Chinese government. Through our efforts, Turning Point USA aims to close every Confucius Institute on American campuses for good.

<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'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.

<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.

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;

<a href="https://www.prescott.edu/faculty-staff-directory/craig-willse">Dr. Craig Willse</a> is an adjunct faculty member at Prescott College and formerly taught at George Mason University. He is one of the professors who has led the fight at GMU Law school against renaming the law school after Justice Scalia. Willse specifically says that Scalia was racist and homophobic. Willse was an undergraduate professor however and has no power over the naming of the law school.

<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.
