Journalist Steven Thrasher, PhD (The Viral Underclass, The Overseer Class) is suing Northwestern University and the US Government after NU terminated his appointment as the Daniel Renberg Chair for (ahem) Social Justice following GOP (and apparently trustee) pressure over his actions in solidarity with #Gaza and campus #GazaSolidarity protests.
The Dean of the Journalism School and all of Northwestern's administration look like cowards and lickspittles in the face of threats to #AcademicFreedom and #HumanRights.
I'm glad he's suing (am very interested in what discovery turns up) and furious that he has to.
