let her go!
Reader comment on item: Oberlin Professor's Anti-Semitic Rhetoric Part of a Campus Trend

Submitted by Deborah Swanger Fortier, Feb 29, 2016 14:45

I'm disappointed in Krislov's acceptance of Karega. Though she has every right to express her views, because her views are dangerous and distorted, Oberlin needs to distance itself from her. It is extremely irresponsible to keep her as an Oberlin educator, as she is in a position of misleading students and fostering hate and stereotyping. She may think of herself as a "free-thinker" and Oberlin has always supported free-thinkers of all kinds. But this is not simply "free-thinking". This is venomous and baseless discourse. She represents the kind of dangerous hate-mongering that is poisoning our country.
