I’m STUNNED by Harvard Kennedy School decision to deny Kenneth Roth a Harvard Carr Center Fellowship after leading Human Rights Watch for 30 years. As one of the most important #humanrights thought-leaders of this era, his knowledge should be shared, debated - not censored! Human Rights Center Samantha Power
.Human Rights Watch Absolutely absurd. Shame on Harvard Kennedy School for bowing to donor influence rather than standing up for freedom of speech + thought. Kenneth Roth is one of the architects of the modern human rights movement; his views should be shared + debated Harvard Carr Center - not suppressed.
I am with you on feeling dismayed over Harvard Harvard Kennedy School decision to deny fellowship to Ken Roth. The school owes civil society, who collectively works tirelessly each day to advance freedom of speech, an explanation.
.ACLU Thank you Anthony D. Romero for joining the uproar over Harvard’s Harvard Kennedy School egregious decision to deny Kenneth Roth a Harvard Carr Center Fellowship. Shame on Harvard. Humanity United Human Rights Center #StandUp4HumanRights #ProtectAcademicFreedom
via The New York Times Harvard Kennedy School reverses bad decision denying Kenneth Roth fellowship at Harvard Carr Center. It’s the right step, but the Dean should never have exercised such poor judgment in the first place, threatening academic freedom. nytimes.com/2023/01/19/art…
Elegant yet unsparing statement from Kenneth Roth on Harvard Kennedy School reversal denying fellowship. “Full transparency is key to ensuring that such influence is not exerted in other cases”. #academicfreedom UN Human Rights Volker Türk Human Rights Watch Harvard Carr Center Human Rights Center
