The lecture was titled “The Psychopathic Problem of the White Mind.” During the speech, Khilanani talked about “learning objectives” such as “ up White people’s absence of empathy towards black rage as a problem,” and also claiming that “White people are psychologically dependent on black rage.” These details, along with the full audio of the lecture, were posted online via Substack on Friday, by former New York Times editor Bari Weiss.ĭuring the lecture, Khilanani claimed that minorities always feel an “intense rage and futility” whenever talking to White people about racism, and that “we are clam, we are giving, too giving. She said that she dreams of “unloading a revolver into the head of any White person that got in my way,” and that if she did so, she would leave the scene of the crime “with a bounce in my step.” She added that White people “make blood boil,” and also believes that White people “are out of their minds and have been for a long time.” Aruna Khilanani during a lecture to the Yale School of Medicine on April 6th. When questions were raised among the student body, the Associated Students at Pomona College (ASPC) tabled the issue, opened it to discussion, and ultimately was not able to pass the resolution in its original form- and instead passed a modified version requiring only the student government members to participate and support the BDS movement.A psychiatrist from New York City went on a racist rant back in April in which she expressed her desire to kill White people simply because they are White, as heard in recently-revealed audio of the lecture, the New York Post reports. One such association at Pomona College unanimously passed a resolution in April that would require all clubs on campus to support and participate in the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel in order to receive club funding. Some of these groups even threaten loss of privileges if the dissenting student doesn’t fall in line. But little is discussed about how student leaders are canceling their own peers who have differing viewpoints through overreaching student government associations (SGAs). However, professors and students are routinely investigated, suspended, and sanctioned for countervailing views.Įxcerpt: Critics of cancel culture on college campuses are quick to point blame at university leadership when students are demonized for expressing a “controversial” opinion- and these administrators usually play a leading role.
These comments were not protested as creating an “unsafe environment” and were largely ignored by universities. I have defended faculty who have made similarly disturbing comments denouncing police, calling for Republicans to suffer, strangling police officers, celebrating the death of conservatives, calling for the killing of Trump supporters, supporting the murder of conservative protesters and other outrageous statements. My only concern is the consistency of universities in protecting controversial speakers on the left as opposed to those on the right. Nevertheless, Riverside college district’s Chancellor Wolde-Ab Isaac told Fox News that while Bair’s “statements and ideas may be unpopular or even controversial, his right to express himself is constitutionally protected.” That is absolutely correct.

CUNY law school Dean Mary Lu Bilek insisted that law students preventing a conservative law professor from speaking was itself free speech.Įxcerpt: Asatar Bair, an assistant professor of economics at Riverside City College, is under fire this week for his praise of one of the most blood-soaked, tyrannical figures in history: Joseph Stalin. Law schools have seen repeated disruptions of conservative speakers with the support or acquiescence of faculty. Academic freedom and free speech are denounced as tools to “marginalize others.”
The move was illustrative of the new anti-free-speech movement that is now taking hold in law schools and legal publications. Student editors resigned rather than associate with a journal offering both sides of such issues. “Law & Contemporary Problems” is a faculty-run journal that recently decided to do a balanced symposium on “Sex and the Law” - including transgender issues - and asked Professor Kathleen Stock of the University of Sussex (who has criticized transgender positions) to participate. The danger is more acute because it has reached law schools where future judges and lawyers may replicate the same intolerance in our legal system.Ī recent controversy at Duke Law School highlights this danger. Excerpt: From American high schools through law schools, free speech has gone from being considered a right that defines our society to being dismissed as a threat.
