Cornel West resigns from Harvard after being denied tenure (because he's black)

[basquebromance]

Harvard is in decline and decay!

OK so where's the proof he was denied tenure because he's black?

Also the standard of professionalism in that letter is ridiculous. It's no wonder they don't want anything to do with him.

His scatter gun is out in between little snippets about how he's feeling and the weather.

what other reason is there?

He fucking sucks?

basquebromance Harvard is leading the way for DEI and Wokeness. If this Black fellow was denied tenure at Harvard, he must be one dumb muthr fukker.

Misguided as he is, West is one of the few "social justice" pimps with at least a shred of intellectual curiosity left...He probably got 86-ed for being uppity enough to ask questions.

There go those racists in Harvard again!

Some things never change, it seems.

I agree: There is something we do not know.

Harvard is now super woke.

There is no way it would refuse tenure to a person of his ethnicity.

Is it possible that some activists believe that Professor West said something that was (gasp!) too moderate?

Actually he is an anti-DNC progressive who blasted Obama over and over.

Anyway, this was all a big dust up back in march. He is just now releasing the letter. He is going to Union Theological Seminary in Richmond VA to teach.
