The difference between BLM and Maoism, is that BLM is based on a constructed narrative that isn't supported by any truth. Maoism at least addressed some very real concerns about Chinese society and the de facto caste system they had.
BLM's evidence of racism is based entirely on how cops interact with junkies and career criminals.

don't know much about that dept. but interesting to see the abuse heaped on northwestern faculty for doing the right thing. this thread says more about psr than anything else really
"abuse heaped on northwestern faculty"
I want to offer a personal illustration of the pain these protesters have caused. Many gathered outside my home this weekend into the early hours of the morning, chanting “f--- you Morty” and “piggy Morty.” The latter comes dangerously close to a longstanding trope against observant Jws like myself. Whether it was done out of ignorance or out of anti-Semitism, it is completely unacceptable, and I ask them to consider how their parents and siblings would feel if a group came to their homes in the middle of the night to wake up their families with such vile and personal attacks. To those protesters and their supporters who justify such actions, I ask you to take a long hard look in the mirror and realize that this isn’t actually “speaking truth to power” or furthering your cause. It is an abomination and you should be ashamed of yourselves.

Is this the worst fakest trolling ever on this site?
I am a black professor and all I can say is that there will be a backlash for faculty and students of color using the very real injustices to black people to wage personal battles and extract resources by enflaming the passions of guilt-ridden liberals and resentful students of color. This will die down and all credibility will be list for decades.
