Letter I just sent to USC Provost Guzman & Carol Folt.

Unarmed, middle-aged, female philosophy professors? What is happening in America right now? Imagine if you saw these scenes in Iran or Venezuela, imagine then the U.S. media response.

This video is unbelievable.

Students and teachers are being arrested for protesting US support for atrocities in Gaza. Now reporters are getting assaulted and arrested for covering the protests. But remember, democracy is on the ballot.

31 members of the NYU Sociology Faculty signed the attached statement.

We would look forward to the opportunity to enter into a dialogue over recent developments on campus, which are extremely troubling to so many of us, and not just in our Department.
