With some variation depending on role and discipline, college professors should enjoy wide latitude to speak their minds, but at the very least, this story proves the talk about valuing all people and their comfort and despising racism in all its forms is just that… talk:

Controversial Rutgers associate professor and author Dr. Brittney Cooper said last month that she wanted to “take these mothers***ers out,” referring to white people. …

“White people thought, ‘there is a world here, and we own it,’” Cooper said during a conversation with The Root, The College fix reported. …

Whites believe, Cooper said, “either you dominate or you are dominated.” …

“The world didn’t start when white people arrived in America and tried to tell all the rest of us how things are going to go,” Cooper told the Root. “There were people out here making worlds – Africans and indigenous people being brilliant, and libraries, and inventions, and vibrant notions of humanity, and cross-cultural exchange long before white people showed up being raggedy and violent and terrible and trying to take everything from everybody.”

This is straight-up ignorant racism and ought to disgust all Americans.
