Harvard course calls Stacey Abrams a ‘political mastermind’
The College Fix ^ | 08/13/2025 | Matt Lamb

Harvard University students can learn about the “political mastermind” of Stacey Abrams this semester in a class that explicitly says it is taught through a critical race theory lens.

“From First Lady Michelle Obama to political mastermind Stacy Abrams to Vice President Kamala Harris, Black women have left their stamp on 21st-century politics and grassroots organizing,” the course description for “Race, Gender, and Law through the Archive” says.

Abrams is a former Democratic state representative who lost the 2018 and 2022 gubernatorial elections in Georgia. As noted by the Washington Free Beacon, she claims the 2018 election was “rigged” and “stolen.”

The course will also teach about the role of “non-binary” activists in the 20th-century.

“This course sets out to look back to the 20th century to examine conditions under which Black women lived in the early days of Jim Crow and the role that Black women and non-binary people have played in shaping politics, grassroots organizing, the legal bar, and higher education during Jim (Jane) Crow and beyond,” according to the description.

“Though many scholars argue that the law is autonomous, Critical Legal Studies scholars and Critical Race theorists argue that the law is subjective,” the description also states.

The class will help students “see the subjectivity of the Black women and non-binary people who helped push for social and legal reform.”

The class instructor, Professor Myisha Eatmon, has other interesting views about race, as highlighted by the Free Beacon.

“Racism is a virus and white privilege is a drug,” she wrote in Nov. 2020. “Black radicalism is only radical within a system ruled by and built upon white supremacy,” she wrote in June 2021. The posts are no longer publicly viewable.

Abrams herself has parlayed her losses into other opportunities.

In 2023, following her second consecutive gubernatorial loss, Howard University hired Abrams as its “Ronald W. Walters Endowed Chair for Race and Black Politics,” as The College Fix previously reported.

“In this role, Abrams will foster interdisciplinary collaborations across the University on critical issues of race and Black politics, especially those issues that affect Americans of the African diaspora,” the university stated in its announcement. “The chair will inspire research and encourage broad discussions of scholarship for real-world solutions to complex, seemingly insoluble societal problems that adversely affect African diasporic communities and other vulnerable populations.”

Her hiring followed a trend I noted in a Washington Examiner article in 2023 – political losers, especially Democrats, can usually find refuge in higher education.

Maybe they should make Harvard the State Mental Institution since the instructors talk like they are all nutz, only Bullschiff is taught in their classrooms and you and I better never say anything about the King’s lack of clothes.

WHY?

This kind of indoctrination doesn’t merely advocate for alternative policies, it sets up the unsuspecting student for separation from the shared reality which most of the rest of us live in. This is why at the mere mention of Donald Trump they now develop inchoate rage reactions, such as once was reserved for diagnosis of mental instability. They really do live in a different world.

“From First Lady Michelle Obama to political mastermind Stacy Abrams to Vice President Kamala Harris, Black women have left their stamp on 21st-century politics and grassroots organizing."

Michell Obama's contribution: To make $10,000 handbags cool again. (IF you are a Democrat.) As for Stacey Abrams, her only "stamp" is the unique mark her gapped teeth make in a watermelon. As for Kamala Harris, her "stamp" was to provide ample fodder for impersonators and comedians as well as helping to launch a new term - "word salad" - into political discourse.
