We look at the resignation of Harvard University President Claudine Gay, the first African American and second woman to lead the Ivy League school, after conservative-led allegations of plagiarism and backlash over her testimony at a congressional hearing on antisemitism that is part of a broader effort to censor pro-Palestinian speech on college campuses. “This is a terrible moment for higher education,” says Khalil Gibran Muhammad, professor of history, race and public policy at the Harvard Kennedy School. He says plagiarism became a “pretext” to oust Gay, and discusses the larger right-wing war on education aimed at undoing progress on race, gender and addressing inequality.

I wonder how Harvard grads feel about their degrees becoming a joke.
The Top becoming The Flop
they were always joke ... sadly as entire US education system more or less. How to breed dumbest people on Earth 101.
America rides on brain drain from other countries for many many decades now. Based on thier own "intelectuals" they would be back to stone age :D.
How so?
@@Churchill00Burns You shouldn't bet on it...
@@lynns4426 You have numerous top companies pledging to not hire Harvard grads... you have to get away from CNN and MSNBC if you want to stay informed.
In my view, this professor is yet an additional proof of how deep the rot in Harvard is.
at Harvard??? how about at the entire US educational system
What's the rot? The US Congress has nothing to do with speech on a PRIVATE university campus. So those hearings were a profound waste of tax payer money. This was a take down by racist rich donors including billionaire Bill Ackman and "journalist" Bari Weiss who tweeted that what they really want to get rid of is DEI--Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.
Who ever worked behind ousted this professor are eather paid by AIPAC or gained benefits out of her resignations. Truth and honesty will be prevailed. Free USA from the new zionist>colonization.
Really you took her classes?!! How were they?
@@ResistEvolve how were they....OVERPRICED!🤣
1 or 2 incorrect citations will get you hauled before a disciplinary committee. 50+ incorrect citations = " there's the door.. "

@@docilenation101do you understand what racism is? Discrimination? So I would imagine that the White people crying discrimination are not being discriminated against ? 93%of jobs have gone to straight White men, should no Blacks hold executive positions, power and authority positions? Are Blacks only allowed specific roles? And do outside sources have the ability to tell private entities how or who they can hire?
Two standards: one for the powerful criminal lizards and the other for the rest of US working, tax paying Americans.
A perfect description of how this mediocre, anti-Semite, light weight, affirmative action hire became president of Harvard.
are you serious? she fired a prof for comments that made students feel unsafe, as her comments made many jewish students feel.
how brain washed are you? You know Larry Summer had to step down as Harvard Presidents for comments he made about women?
Tax paying Americans come with different opportunities though. Black lesbian is probably at the bottom. Claudine made it past those blockades, but they still got rid. Israel and it's supporters will lose in the long run.
@@therewdy4038There were no barriers before, no body cares. She only God her job because of DIE hiring quotas and her Marxist religion.

Brown University had a Black female President for 12 years without any drama.
Because she wasn’t a plagiarist or anti Semite.
But That's Racist!
Why is she only allowed to be president of Brown university ? Why can't she Also be president of White university?
Anyway, it doesn't sound like a very good university.

@@Antrunu Who are you talking to ? Me? Address me if you are referring to me. Why do I look ignorant?
@@morticiag Obviously I'm referring to your comment...And why do I say ignorant? Easy. Brown University is one of the eight universities that make up the Ivy League, the most elite and with the highest academic standards in the country...if that means anything today 🙄
Campaign or not it's simply untenable that any university holds its students to a higher standard than its president.
why shouldn't they, the students are the one's giving her a livelihood
@@benporter3982 you're not really saying it's OK for the president of Harvard to plagiarize are you.?

. @rig4365 He is but because he is a racist and thinks that Ms Gay ought to receive special treatment because of her skin colour-even though she is from a very privileged background
Have you looked at the actual content of her "plagiarized work"? How do you know they're holding her to a different standard?
Trying to defend this woman is worse than her crimes.
What a horrible indictment of the entire left and DEI group; they should all be fired entirely and blacklisted.
Wonderful to watch this explode. I predict many more instances with different institutions being hammered by woke and racist DEI practices.
and we should also rescind freedom of speech based on your statement... F you buddy, people should have the right to believe in and protest for what ever they want.
“The GOP?” 😂😂😂😂 Ma’am she was asked to resign by LIBERAL donors!!
It's also a two decade movement by young Jews, mostly progressive. These are children that have dealt with extensive discrimination and violence from the college administrators behaving like the KKK, with some of them ironically being Black.
Sad state of affairs when people actually believe they have a right to free speech. This woman was hounded deliberately. She was abused and driven from her job because she stood up for Palestine a country that is being stolen and where genocide is being committed. Image saying that she was scalped. Sick.
Stop the hatred. Bombing people does not solve the problem. 22,000 slaughtered is not a war on Hamas, 10,000 children murdered is not a war on Hamas. 56,000 people injured is not a war on Hamas. Houses bombed , hospitals bombed, schools bombs is not a war on Hamas. 1000 Palestinian children have had at least 1 limb amputated some with multiple limbs amputated often without anaesthetics or any other form of pain relief. This is barbaric, vile, deprave, inhumane, evil, demonic, disgusting and psychopathic. Thank you both sides need people like you. Free Palestine.
She did it to herself, and blamed everyone else. You go girl👍😅
This has been a movement by young Jews going back two decades, and it's because they've been victims of discrimination and violence. This isn't about plagiarism or freedom of speech. It's about administrators supporting children being r_ped and m_rdered for going to school.
@@anotherjewishsharpnicholas9425 Wise up. Do Jewish children get raped and murdered more often?

The university system is rotting from the inside. This is just a symptom. They have forgotten to focus on the core principles of education which are inconvenient most of the time and certainly not fitting the social agenda being pushed by most universities now.
If a student is found to have plagiarized, he may be expelled from the university. If a professor (not to mention Harvard president) is found to have plagiarized about 50 times, then he/she should be kicked out. What is there to talk about? What a shame!
It's that simple. 👏.
But what if the student is a black female with the preferred opinions ? 😀
This isn't just about plagiarism. There appears to be a campaign to obfuscate and conceal exactly what this is all about. The media the world over are all involved in attempting to emphasise this plagiarism accusation as the reason she is in trouble. She refused to condemn or even attempt to address awful ati-semitism within her university.
Actually, plagiarism is a felony in Massachusetts.
I actually saw this happen to a second-year graduate student. Why would it be okay for a student and not to an elite college President.
What is insane is that we are having the conversation. She was a cheat and not up to the job at hand that is the end of it. Trying to justify it thorugh her skin colour is an insult to those same people.
Correct and simply put.
This is the state of the woke left: morally bankrupt, criminal and exact the same as the rabid brown right.
But, but, but, she's a "black woman" and you have to remember that conservatives are VERY VERY bad because they "deny slavery" "won't allow history to be taught" and are pushing back against our anti-white racism. Smh
If that woman who was thoroughly vetted, did all that,she would have never been hired or interviewed. Harvard's prestige is it's most valued attribute. If that prestige is threatened by anyone, there wouldn't even be a close coming to consideration. Especially an African American female. The reason we have a media,is to get between truth and falsehood. Mainly falsehood is the motivation for European media. The Israeli zionist European government is an established, protected, pirating mechanism, that was installed to gain even more world dominance. Zionist are supplanted. They will exploit the western world and in the end, they will make strong attempts to freeze Europeans,and make all efforts to become world dominators themselves. Just as did the founding fathers of the United States did Great Britain. Nature is a tell tell indicator of deceitful motivations.
She now gets a million dollars a year to teach these pukes to hate our country.
These comments give me much more hope for this nation than the news piece or the guest does. Bravo fellow
Humans. 👏👏👏
Same here. Uplifted immensely by the general scorn of this university and this news piece and their twisting of facts/ideas to fit their agenda.
Maybe 🤔 just maybe she’s being held accountable for her lies.
It is not about "attacking" academia. Theft of academics is fraud. Being the "first black is NO justification for stealing others publications and material and presenting it as your own.
she needed to say the truth but copy pasting is normal that why you have a chair at home and you are not in jail , copy pasting is normal that how we learn but we also learn through doubts
Plagiarism is not always stealing. She never stole any work, she just misquoted or made errors in citations. Remember when she published many years ago, some of these new rules on plagiarism were not in place.
The problem is that the guest didn't address this appropriately.
@@IamGodSon Not if you believe one of the women whose work she stole. She is, rightly, super mad.
@@tonybloomfield5635 who is that woman?
The rules for plagiarism have been consistent for decades only more refined as technology improved. How one sources an online article for instance. But the idea that she used whole paragraphs verbatim without citing is somehow excusable is nonsense. The use of others content has always been the basis of citation and that has never been otherwise. For her to claim otherwise is post modernist horse s**t.
Mind you I think the GOP targeting is racist as f**k, but Gay did plagiarise to a degree that would cause expulsion for most students.
Of course, the multiple examples of her plagiarism had nothing to do with it…
No it's obvious it's because she's a strong black women that is so oppressed she was President of Harvard and makes 900k a year even after she resigns...
Yes it doesn’t
Why Now?
Most of the board bet did plagiarism as well why her?
Those targeting her don’t care about Academic or whatever stop pretending the one replacing her would be better
@@RiRi-ku6xzwhat? Are you okay? Do you also believe there is a plot to harvest blood from newborns? Because that is how much conspiracy minded hurdles you are hopping over to try and make a coherent point.

@@RiRi-ku6xz you're not handling this very well.. LMAOO 😂😂

How about not condone language promoting violence to ANY group.
Accountability is a terrible moment!? If I cheated during my time at University id be EXPELLED. My degree may be worthless in the workplace, but i EARNED it.
She was ousted due to dishonest! Hollering racism is another example of a black leader not being able to handle accountability.
☺️ why is she suddenly fired? Because she is in favor of the Palestine people. Because Harvard was pushed to be in favor of what the current US government is in favor with, which is killing thousands and thousands of Palestine people (mostly children) and then kicking out people from the lands they were born in, to put Israel families in colonies.
You mean a Red leader.
They defended her as.long as they could because she is left-wing.
They go after black conservatives viciously.
Amy needs to rally & raise $$$. Its her gig.
It seems like it never changes every Since I was a little t y k e 67 years ago. It's been that way I don't understand... It's something in their dna.. If I had to guess I would think it's deep rooted in security...
What about hollering anti Semitism?
She'll receive a salary of around $900,000 a year from the university. Hard times indeed.
That university is fraud and morally bankrupt. Harvard diploma holders should class action sue the rotten fraud institution of Harvard.
For being the almost never published professor of Silly.
she needs to donate that whole salary to charity and then pay reparations
Wow, and I thought it was only $90k? Geez! This is disgusting. Nearly a million per year to sit on her bum and write a book about how she was fired due to the racist GOP! We know she’s got a book coming soon about this, only question is…..Whom will she plagiarize this time?
The Left used to say "Speak truth to power". Now it says "Screw truth, grab the power" Democracy Now is just running defense for a leftist in power. Step 1, Portray her as a victim.
Lifting entire sentences and paragraphs from the scholarly work of others, with maybe a slight tweaking of a preposition or conjunction, with no attribution is intellectual theft, plain and simple. That she also did this on her doctoral dissertation suggests that she misrepresented herself to the faculty and dissertation committee and thus committed academic fraud. Under these conditions, the Harvard graduate school should seriously consider having the PhD it conferred on her rescinded.
I remember 20 years ago when Amy would get stories right sometimes
I'm a former democrat that became an independent in 2020. Although conservatives overplay the "trump derangement syndrome" thing, it is absolutely real. Trump broke the brains of the far left to the point where the far left now has no principles. They believe that they are so correct and that everyone else not them is so wrong and dangerous that it justifies to them almost anything they think, say, or do....so long as it is so history follows the correct path they have envisioned. I can't have a discussion at all with them anymore. They are constantly trying to feel you out to make sure you aren't one of those bad people. It's like going on a first date and the woman keeps asking leading questions to figure out what your salary is and how much money you have in the bank.
And then she pinpointed the money-trial, never looking back.
Harvard will continue to decline further and further in all aspects before it starts to rise again, and I suspect it may take a couple of generations before that occurs. That’s because it has to change its culture and that takes time 😅
The kids now coming up see things the way Claudine Gay & Harvard do.
So expect more of the same, only worse.
And that will be the case until a real crisis seriously grips the nation - and it's inevitable one will someday occur.
The dangerously hard times will necessarily focus the population away from this kind of foolishness directly toward what really matters, like survival.
Someone ought to start a betting pool on Harvard's ranking in the 2024 Forbes list. They already plummeted to ninth BEFORE the Gay debacle, and I've offered bets to colleagues that it will not be in the top 10 in the next rankings. (Nobody will bet against me!) I suspect it will end up around 15. After that, who knows?
Plagiarism is not alleged, it’s a fact. She got the position according to DEI, not merit.
DEI is the reason the society is the way it is today
Y’all madd😂
Affirmative action hire exposed herself as a fraud and jew hater
@@sk8ter975 DEI stands for Death of Every Institution
Plagiarism while surrounded by a plagiarized boys club is interesting, to say the least. If true, then all the males that do it should go too! It can't only be wrong if a woman or minority allegedly does it.
It's terrible that a university president who plagiarized her thesis work was pressured to resign! In fact, why don't we just eliminate plagiarism as a standard, and let all student plagiarize to their hearts content. Clearly knowledge and actual achievement is far less valuable in today's society than being able to check the most boxes on an intersectionality chart.
How you blame this on a party is ridiculous and just another grift to take zero accountability or to spin things in an alternate reality. Some people are born victims I suppose, and it's always just about them, and not what they actually did to get fired or resign. There should absolutely no discussion about this. And has zero to do with racism.
So what value is a degree from Harvard if the study required to obtain that degree depends on the need for the student to match his or her thinking and conclusions to a predetermined set of political and religious values. Any such degree would simply be a confirmation of conformity.
And indoctrination
Agreed. Great take.
But that’s part of the unspoken rule. You can break conformity as long as those who manage that conformity allow it. Step outside of that or step on the toes of the conformity managers and your out! This brilliant woman who worked for every degree she earned also earned her way to that position. Although she stated her personal beliefs, her professional beliefs as an academic did not fall in line with the anti Palestinian, anti Muslim beliefs held by the powerful forces that drove her out.
harvard does indoctrinate into leftism. Her support of genocide is what they teach to students
What you describe is known as Progressive Fascism in education and thank God, it's on the way out.
It's nothing to do with colour if she had been white we wouldn't be having these conversations
100% agree!
It's a matter of color because without it, she would not even have been considered to this role to begin with.
DEI = anti merit. And this is just another nail in the coffin
That's about the most self-contradictory sentence in the history of youtube comments.
@@zxbc1Did we have these conversations about Liz Magill (UPenn president) who lasted far shorter than Claudine Gay
i think what you tried to say is that if this would have been a white(non jew) person...he would be ousted from the onset and there would be much less news coverage/conversation !!!
Harvard degrees just aren't what they used to be.
They always were dogshit, it’s just cracking the public consciousness now.
She is a joke, i wonder how she reached to Harvard....
Nice Blaming another political party for Ms. Gay's own missteps. This is why I hate partisan politics on both sides. They are disingenuous. If Ms. Gay had been asked if calling for the genocide of black people qualified as bullying or harassment, she would have claimed unequivocally, yes. Be consistent or I don't even want to hear your discriminatory view at all!
Yes, totally!!!
You've hit the nail on the head. That's why I am an independent. I don't care for the far right or far left. The left has a double standard
Firstly, what did Democracy Now get wrong in their reporting? Secondly, what "missteps" might those be?
The university presidents that were called before the hearing had their formal response written by legal experts based entirely on legislative precedent and the Constitution which they stuck to during the questioning. Would you rather that they expressed their personal political views and opinions or stuck to the law? Your so-called "misstep" is that they did not bow down to political pressure to say what the GOP wanted them to say for their own political purposes. This is just more of the continuation of the GOP and far right to take over education in the US - the war against public education, to ban books, whitewash history, take control of school boards, and to push their propaganda even more than it already is within the curriculum. Having an informed population with strong critical thinking skills is the greatest threat to the GOP. Hense why people like Trump "love the uneducated" and the ongoing war against educational institutions. Poorly informed, uneducated people are far more gullible and thus more likely to vote against their own interests. Also, why are you not questioning the lies of the GOP questioning her in the video? Intifada is NOT synonymous with "genocide". That in itself is ridiculous and purposefully misleading to politicize the matter. And why is the GOP member not asking the same about committing genocide against the Palestinians? Israel is under no threat of genocide, yet we are witnessing firsthand as Netanyahu's government engages in acts of genocide against the Palestinian people.
Eye roll
Not going to watch with such a silly click bait headline. What's next, Putin made her resign?
GoP didn't oust her out. The shame of her actions did.
If she had any shame she wouldn’t still have a $900,000 a year teaching position.
It's adorable thry think that. These people cannot even get out of their own way.. lmaoo
At my undergraduate university academic integrity and academic honesty was held as the highest value. Whether it was data in the lab in chemistry class or citations on a paper in an english class, you would be asked to leave the university. Of course that took courage from the department head and the administration. It took the willingness to lose that tuition or face a lawsuit. For someone at her level of education to not list a citation was not an accident. When it was identified previously, why did she not amend it or acknowledge it?
To be fair, I've looked at a few of the plagiarism allegations and they really are errors in citing and some could easily have been accidentally formulating sentences very similarly, which simply happens in writing, especially after having read tons of passages over and over again. This was in the 90s, so probably written on a typewriter without any automation we take for granted nowadays. I can't speak for all the allegations, but the ones concerning her PhD are nothingburgers. Regardless, her appalling response to antisemitism, the safety concerns and her performance on the hearing, plus her abuses of power regarding staff she didn't like, are more than enough for her to be yeeted. She should also be stripped of tenure, especially since she tried to do so for her competitors.
Ah... the Ivory tower is starting to crumble and fall. Those on top are learning they are going down with it.
Harvard is now a symbol of failure. I wonder how long it would take to recover, if ever.
is it correct that Mrs. Gay has NO books to her name and only 12 publications ?
if so, what was she doing at Harvard in the first place?
It is not about merit, it is about fraud and and politics. Harvard diploma holders should class action sue the rotten fraud institution of Harvard.
Token black, hello?????
Not all fields/departments prioritize monographs (= academic book); some need to see peer-reviewed journal articles rather than books. (Both books and articles are "publications," btw).
And her 11 instances of plagerism?
Skin color IE RACISM. Funny that it was racism that GOT her there, but she's blaming racism for forcing her to leave. What a POS. Own your behavior.
I used to watch democracy now some 12 years ago when I was more liberal and followed politics more. I haven’t watched in many years but I always thought it was very left leaning but quite objective in its reporting. This clip throws a wrench in that memory! Has democracy become more unhinged and partisan over the years or has it always been like this?
This broadcast plays to the mentally ill
@docilenation101 accentuated by the presenter.
she must say the truth if she plagiared but also i support copy paste for your own personal use benefits , i support copyng but also admiting the truth that you copied so copy pasting is part in myself even if me actually i create my own thing i stil support copy pasting because some biological males needs benefits to continue to do what is his peaceful desires needs
Democracy now is the extremely necessary and useful candle that offers a clear sight amidst all the light bulls manipulated by "the ones in power".
Democracy Now is the speech of truth, spoken out with courage. It never brings you information that is not supported by facts you can check and verify, this only and by itself is nowadays a jewel above any price.
You don't represents democracy anymore. You have become 'ANYTHING GOES ' . YOU ARE MAKING DEMOCRACY A JOKE!! All ideologies should have limits to make it viable. You will very soon be promoting nudism just because some idiots may happen to think wearing clothes is an insult to nature because we are born bare bottomed!!
How can this be “racism”? Can we simply admit she lacked the leadership acumen required to handle the Hamas’ attack (and the harassment that the Jewish community faced afterwards) elegantly and effectively? Can we admit her academic work is wanting? How can we honestly say this is “racism”? I am black, and I am so tired of this…
Bravo
Harvard should re-examine her doctoral thesis. Maybe they'll find enough evidence of plagiarism to pull her Ph.D., then Claudine will have to settle for work as a professional victim.
cmon man, it was NOT a GOP campaign...it was broad spectrum outrage at Gross over the top plagiarism, entire lines lifted verbatim with nary a quote or cite, multiple times in multiple papers, and tone deaf disgraceful refusal to denounce pure genocide... and she till played the race card in her non apology on her way out...classless!!!
Yeah, but grifters gonna grift! I mean what else is Ibram X Kendi going to say lol
I'm a liberal and I found her blatant hypocrisy on free speech appalling.
Gay was an affirmative action hire. With only 12 dissertations published for an entire university career through a PhD, when Masters students have have that many or more before entering doctoral school, you know she was an affirmative action hire. I went to grad school so I know.
Nailed it.

@@JonathanBotach You’re not wrong 😆
Gay's tenure as president aligns with her academic excellence
She was a vile appointment in my view, and her comments regarding genocide are beyond disgusting.
It's obvious she hates Jews
Speaking from intellectual domain, Gay's comments were fine: language is complex, intellectually, and university policy (in principle) has honored free speech, while no students were actually calling for genocide of Jews or Israelis. Pro-Palestinian slogans call for "freedom," an end to illegal occupation and collective punishment. Only Zionist propaganda translates those aims into "genocide;" the rest of the world hears "international human rights."
”depends on the context” 😊
you mean the Isreal governament committing genocide on Palestinian right? Cause that's what happening, but America is the land of McCarthyism so... not much to be surprise by the ignorance of their citizens
Yes, her saying that committing "acts" of genocide would certainly be considered "bullying" according to Harvard rules is beyond disgusting, but to be honest and in all seriousness, it is truly beyond believable.
"At a time when the world is literally on fire" - Khalil Muhammed.... ok mate
Education is about minds, not skin color. It's past the time everyone becomes color blind and very aware of intellectual value.
So, you mean the plagiarism had nothing to do with it? The Stanford president resigned due to fudged data of which he claimed to be unaware. Plagiarism is not something you cannot know about -- you have to actively engage in doing it.
I could probably find a few sentences in any scholarly work that bear resemblance to some other work. The substance of her writing was original. A few sentences that may or may not have been copied don’t change that.
@@shd_khan Did you see how close she copied?
That is not what plagiarism is. Just resembling is not enough. You get accused of plagiarism when your work basically matches word for word someone else’s. Claudine Gay has way too many accusations of plagiarism for there not to be something there. They could maybe let one incident slide but she has dozens uncovered already and people aren’t done looking.

Before Gay even became university president, her corruption was already evident in her role in cancelling Roland Fryer for his rigorous analysis of police bias which got results unpleasant to outrage-porn addicts.
Harvard degree is a toilet paper.
Shame on Democracy Now for such a slanted report. They should do an exposé about the University of Cincinnati student who was failed on a project for using the term "biological woman" (thankfully FIRE came to her defense with their attorneys and the professor was made to take classes on free speech). Or maybe a report about the art history professor who was fired for showing a painting of Mohammed even after listing it in her syllabus and giving 'trigger warnings' in advance. FIRE also came to her defense . There was a report issued last May where it was declared that Hamline University violated the professor's academic freedom and there is a pending lawsuit against Hamline University. Or how about a report that talks about California school districts with too much focus on DEI and too little focus high standards of education and as a result the poorer education outcomes? Or maybe a report on how many professors have been fired for perceived non-compliance of DEI rules in violation of their academic freedom and free speech? Tsk, tsk, tsk.

🇨🇦 I hadn’t heard of Democracy Now but this clip popped up on UA-cam. I watched it and immediately detected a slant to their reporting.
Ignorance is not bliss.
@@bonniesteinke6624 Move along!!
Not only accusation, she committed plagiarism too many times and now she says she is a victim of hatred, no responsibility at all. She did that to herself.
She is pro-Israel yet shouting racism
Harvard should not have accepted her resignation. They should have had her back.
Since when did plagiarism and antisemitism become racism. She was racist herself with the antisemitism she blatantly showed.
Maybe HARVARD shouldn’t let plagiarism unacceptable in the student ranks be allowed for the Faculty
Seriously! I am sure on more than one occasion a student at Harvard was caught committing plagiarism and ended up committing suicide but Claudine Gay can just go back to being a professor.
I would never tell anyone that Plagiarism is a "very minor offense". This is a very poor construct to have regarding the theft of others' work.
The were no proven cases of Plagiarism, just accusations.
Plagiarism is about to theaf ideas from others, if theaf is an offense then yes Plagiarism is a big offense.
@@MrDayna39 smoke another bong, and go back to sleep.
Plagiarism is only an offence if you're white .
She messed up a couple citations. That’s not a big deal. The pundits you watch every day plagiarize way more than that in every paragraph.
There is no chance for us commoners to know the details about the academic integrity of Ms. Gay. But obviously, she demonstrates her courage and lives up to her reputation of being the most exceptional Harvard president in history---playing the victim card to the last minute and blaming everything to racism. Bravo! 👏 👏 👏
This is not primarily about plagiarism. She has a track record of ruthlessness as an administrator notably against a fellow African American scholar whose work was implicitly critical of her own. Check out what happened to Roland Fryer. His suppression can be laid largely at Gay's feet. One certainly needn't feel sorry for her.
This is the result of criticizing those-who-must-never-be-criticized.
antisemite much?
@@lesweizman388it's reality
@@lesweizman388isn't everything labelled as such. You're safe, I, on the other hand will be easily lynched and no one will care. Let's talk about "anti." 🤫
It's the result of cheating and being a monumental hypocrite.
This is the result of not condemning murder … and for violating Harvard’s plagiarism rules. Doh!!
It’s not conservative or liberal it’s billionaires who decide, follow the money
Agreed
Exactly. It’s all Zionists.
Oh, so the all-powerful billionaires hired Claudine Gay. Then they fired her?
At the end of the day, the arms dealers are the ones benefiting the most.
Democracy Now decides to ignore the main snippet from congress that is the problematic part.....
How to defend the indefensible. The congressional hearing showed her appalling prejudice. The stories of her lack of published writings demonstrate huge unsuitability for the role. And the numerous counts of alleged plaguerism reveal a frightening dishonesty. Unless these are all wrong, she should not be at any prestigious 3rd level institution.
Facts & reality have seem to have no place in discussion , discourse, debate in America……It’s all about the political agenda, sadly….
"Anything that can be destroyed by the truth Should be" -Carl Sagan
They have to go I agree with that but I will stop short of MIT calling for resignation as it is the least high profile one. Result talks, when u forgo result long enough consequence happens regardless of all the kombuya you wan to do. And don't think for a moment Gay being african american didn't play a role in her nomination at a post she didn't qualify for. I wouldn't mind picking over others even mroe qualified as long as she is qualified and have leadership. Inaction when things are up and screwed is as loud. Wow, and this guy qualify this as an attack on ''blackness'' Wow!? Action have have consequence, and that is something college should teach, I guess themselve should learn that lesson first.
And if it can't be destroyed by the truth, then lie.
@@sPi711she made a career out of it. Just didn’t last as long as she hoped 😂
True!
@@forret I'm betting you've done zero homework on what was alleged. lack of citations around boilerplate language? this was a hit job, you simply revel in the outcome.
Would Gary King say a thesis he had supervised was not of the highest standard? lets face it if he didn't defend Professor Gay he would be casting doubt on his academic credentials
We have African Americans claiming asylum in Ireland. Why?
I wonder if there is anything she could do that might bring about some form of criticism here? I don't think we have much of a democracy if some people are beyond reproach, whatever the reason.
She still has a job in Harvard. Oust her!
She was a DEI hire and held to lower standards than everybody else. Good riddance.
Isn’t it suspicious that suddenly there are all these female presidents in ivy league? DEI?
Harvard's board has issued a statement regarding Claudine Gay's recent plagiarism allegations, stating that Gay was not plagiarizing, but that she was merely a victim to "duplicative language without appropriate attribution."
Democrats are real good at renaming bad behavior aka sanitizing it one way or another.
Harvard has no honor.
What a crock of crap!
The deepest of the ivy covered rot.
Board members probably are in the same boat.
It happens when you hire or promote someone not solely based on the performance and qualification which we should never do.
In other words, racism
@@elilihait is racist to prefer people based on their skin color (affirmative action)
@@MurdocIsASaint I think the worth of people should be determined by the size of their eyes.
The one replacing her is probably no better
Cuz the ones targeting her don’t care about academics
But don't you know that the ONLY way to atone for historic racism is with present racism "affirmative action"? and the only people who don't support anti-white racism are racist conservatives, you can't make this sh!t up. Smh
OMG! Now Gay is gone, who will write Shakespeare?
So Ms Gay what is Harvard policy of firing the school president because of her race. Will as far as I understand and after, after great consideration it has to do with context.
I don’t know if there was a GOP “campaign,” but I think it is good that she is gone. I’m an independent who has never registered Republican, and it is clear to me from her testimony before a House committee that she was not fit for the job. I would have liked to have heard some Democrats campaigning for her removal as well, although I don’t pay much attention to what party a person identifies with.
They would not be allowed to do so because Identity Politics are the order of the day with that Party. Always checking off the Demographics checklist now is all that matters.
She didn't do anything wrong.
fairness and equity not equality , equity is more important
@frankkirk9767 man stop it...its obvious who's the victim of genocide.
It's ironic, because from her testimony before the House committee it was clear to me that she absolutely was fit for the job and maybe a few other jobs. Despite how clearly Stefanik was trying to intimidate her and put words into her mouth, she was unflustered, prepared, showed great integrity and commitment. Penn's president was similarly impressive.
Do you have to defend anyone 'on the left' no matter what they do? It weakens other cases imo.
Calling for intifada against jews and shouting "from the river to the sea" is "hateful" and "personally abhorrent" to her but it also "depends on the context". I'm not a tenured Harvard professor but how exactly does that work?
Shame on Harvard and Claudine
the right president at harvard should have found a way to deal with both sides effectively and sensitively and by that also not leaving the students feeling unsafe on campus. her failure to do so has proven her to be an unsuitable leader and therefore she is simply unqualified for the job.
Because all previous Harvard presidents have done that?
If the students are fearful of brown activists and Arabic, maybe they need more diversity in leadership??? You do understand there was no plagiarism yes?
@@esanuevamexicana Do two wrongs make a right? Glad to see the bigoted Claudine Gay GONE. She can spew her reverse discrimination and hatred elsewhere.
Feeling unsafe? 😂 no Jews felt unsafe they were the ones protesting. But if people protest literally anything else it doesn’t matter. Don’t you see what’s really going on??
@@esanuevamexicana So we just let idiots rule forever since they have before, liberal logic.

So she resigned because of allegations, yes of course those little misteps...
she resigned because some donors wanted to support Israel's genocide and Harvard values donors over academic freedom.
She resigned because pressure-campaigns of sIander and racyzm still *work.*
