This is day 2 of my obsession with this but Chemerinsky also lied about what happened
— student didn’t make political statement yet when his wife approached
— student didn’t put hands on Fisk.

Unpacking my office and sorry for all the people I stole books from over the years; there's at least 10 in here that I know I took from people but don't remember who they were.

Also, if you stole a book of mine, give it back! (lol jk I have no memory of that either)

Perhaps controversial opinion:

Doctoral defenses should be ceremonial. If y'all had something to say to your student you should've said it. If they're standing there, dressed up, with their families waiting, time is up on anything but fluff questions and fun.

The NYT has got to be the most regressive & reactionary publication on the planet. I’m stunned that their angle from the Eid prayer at Washington Sq Park revolves around Muslim fashion sense. The main theme at the prayer was Palestine, solidarity and standing up to oppression.

If money could buy happiness, I guarantee David Simon (net worth $15M) would *not* be spending an April afternoon cursing and insulting professors and journalists w/ his take about the event at Berkeley Law

If y’all think it’s good manners to bum rush a guest for getting up and speaking out of turn please never invite me to your home. White notions of property kingdoms + white civility are at best a stuffy social event and at worst deadly. Y’all can keep your under seasoned meat.

If you’re going to describe a Pali Muslim student peacefully protesting at a school sponsored event in a professor’s home as an attack, just call them a terrorist and get on with it.

Also if you’re a controversial figure which he admits to being, holding this event at your home is a blunt power play.

Also putting your hands on a student for speaking is absurd.

Finally, my arabness has me mortified at their impression that hosting means silencing guests!
