ProPublicaMuzzled by DeSantis, Critical Race Theory Professors Cancel Courses or Modify Their Teaching
--

#introduction I’m a diasporic Korean who grew up in Ethiopia and Kenya, a #feminist scholar and a historian of Russian Jewry at Brandeis U, avid reader (esp. books by writers of color and translated works), lousy Chair of a fabulous WGS department. Feeling a bit forlorn without my Twitter community of fierce activists, scholars, and writers.
