Ward Churchill Claimed Amertican Indian Herritage When He Joined the Faculty at CU

630 KHOW afternoon show hosts Dan Caplis and Craig Silverman have obtained numerous University of Colorado documents regarding Professor Ward Churchill through a freedom of information request.

The documents show that Churchill filled out an Affirmative Action form claiming American Indian heritage when he applied for a job as an Associate Professor. The record shows only two people were interviewed for the job and that both were American Indian.

In addition, Churchill claims Creek/ Cherokee heritage on his resume.

Churchill has claimed he is three-sixteenths Cherokee but has never provided any documentation to support the claim. A Rocky Mountain News investigation into Churchill’s family tree failed to find any Native American relatives. The National American Indian Movement has accused Churchill of being an Indian fraud.

Look closely at the resume below and in the first document make note of the fact that native American imposter Ward Churchill was hired instead of 10 other potential native American candidates.

Sangamon State is basically a diploma mill.

Hey, my GGGrandfather was a full blooded Choctaw, does that mean that I can claim I am Indian and get the benefits of Affirmative Action?

I mean hell, I am as much NA as that buttwipe.

[ajolympian2004]

What will be curious to find out is how Ward Churchill designated his race on applications to Illinois Central College and Sangamon State. Dan Caplis and Craig Silverman on KHOW speculated that he probably used 'White' on any applications.

great to see he's up on his marxism quals as well.

It's very important that we let him remain in the spotlight....

The more he is identified with the Democrats and the left in this country, the better off we are. Ward Churchill is a low life scumbag who should be considered an asset to all of us. After all... He is a darling of the left, yet his views are shared by less than 1% of the American People, but nonetheless he is identified with Ted Kennedy and Nancy Pelosi and they call the shots among the RATS :-) :-)

According to research on this guy, you are far more Indian than he could ever hope to be. Some Amerindian news hounds have dug into his geneology and have found White Bread for over two hundred years.

[Lurker]

I actually have some Choctaw running in my veins according to the family Bible. I guess that means I am qualified to spout on the evils of the 'white man', too.

Maybe I can get a 'tenured' job for 100K a year.

I can talk about how tough it is to be 1/64th Indian compounded by the fact that I have French and Irish ancestry as well. Oh the horrors of all those "No Irish Need Apply" signs. Why, I'm traumatized to this very day.

Good post! If he lied on his application that is enough to
fire him even with tenure.

[Troublemaker]

That's what I've been waiting for. Just fire him now for lying on his resume/application.

[NormsRevenge]

tour in 'Nam, Public Information Specialist? wrote a battalion newsletter and press releases?

yet I think I saw somewhere that he claimed to be a paratrooper and had to do some killing while there.

This poor little porkchop has a severe identity crisis, amongst others issues.

I mean hell, I am as much NA as that buttwipe.

Given that Churchill is, in fact, zero NA, you've got him beat by a quart or two.

About half way down.

[Anti-Bubba182]

He has to put up more than his honorary Cherokee card to get out of this, provided the ones deciding his case even raise the issue. The good thing is if they use grounds like lying on an application then it will be very hard for him to win a suit against the University.

[NormsRevenge]

Thanks! That wasn't where I saw it, but it would jibe with his claim of being a paratrooper.

I'd assume 82nd or 101st Airborne, if true.

Looks like he tailors his diatribe to the tribe he is currently trying to claim he's part of. ;-)

[Welsh Rabbit]

Churchill has claimed he is three-sixteenths Cherokee but has never provided any documentation to support the claim.

What does that mean? He had three grandparents who were a quarter Cherokee? Even if he wasn't lying, that's still a flimsy claim to Indian heritage. Everyone where I'm from has a little Cherokee in them.

I just spent 5 days in the Marxist people's paradise of Laos. A trip there is very much like going back 100 years in time. Luang Prabong is as beautiful and historically rich as anywhere I have ever been and the people are culturally inclined to be friendly and open. From a economic, health, freedom, and communications aspect, the country is a basket case. Luckily, basic family oriented agriculture and business is healthy because, nothing else beyon the tiny tourist industry exists. It isn't as bad a Burma where the government is killing off a large portion of their own population but it isn't good either.

I am sure Ward Churchill would love it there. Unfortunatly, I don't think the Lao would want him. They are too interested in bettering their lives.

[Peace will be here soon]

To bad, Ward`s discrimination lawsuit for being unjustly fired just hit a snag. : )
