So glad the Rabbi of my congregation has gone public insisting that Jews are not behind Trump using anti-semitism as an excuse to trample human rights here in America. chicago.suntimes.com/other-views/...

First they came for trans youth, then trans adults and now with a ban on abortion care for those insured by the government, they have come for women too…democrats need to fight back!

First they come for the children, but it never stops there…

what a GREAT idea....anyone in Chicago interested?

Great point! Scholarship about democracy is not considered ‘biased’ because it is pro-democracy but scholarship on gender and race is considered biased if pro equality..

There goes peer reviewed science..

US government crafting white Christian patriarchy www.nytimes.com/2025/05/09/us/politics/pentagon-hegseth-dei-library-books.html?unlocked_article_code=1.GE8.LJpM.aw-1Vu3a1RL4&smid=bs-share

So true. The goal is to establish a white male patriarchy across all of America…

When a government tries to ban scientists from competitive research funding because they teach at a university out of favor with the Executive Branch, we have descended into fascism

New research shows gender equity labor increases faculty productivity. Good work, important changes, more pubs. So what does this administration do? Kill the successful ADVANCE program. Despicable.

After 30 days I can post oped from Chronicle of Higher Ed (with Amir Goldberg). Antisemitism is only a cyncial excuse to attack universities. Trump's attacks don't help Jews. We are being used as legitimation to destroy higher education. Not in our name! www.barbararisman.com/uploads/7/8/....
