It turns out that a controversial University of Chicago professor arrested last year for alleged felony aggravated battery on a police officer is the sister of Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic nominee for a U.S. Senate seat in Michigan.
Eman Abdelhadi, an assistant professor focused on religion, gender, identity, and demography, is El-Sayed’s maternal half-sister, the Washington Free Beacon reported.
“A self-described ‘Queer Muslim’ and ‘community organizer’ who uses the pronouns ‘she/they,’ she has been at the center of far-left protests on campus,” the Beacon reported.
Abdelhadi, a signatory to an open letter pledging “solidarity” with the “Palestinian resistance” shortly after the October 7, 2023 slaughter of over a thousand Israelis by Hamas, she has been the focus of several College Fix reports over the last year.
In October, due to her aggressive actions at an anti-ICE protest, Abdelhadi was arrested and charged with two counts of aggravated battery, a felony, and two counts of obstructing the peace, a misdemeanor, according to information from the Cook County Sheriff’s Office.
She argued that ICE officers had “rushed at unarmed protesters standing on a patch of grass.”
Last July, while speaking at a socialism conference, she called her employer, the University of Chicago, an “evil … colonial landlord” and a “police force.”
“Why would I organize here? I don’t care about this institution. Like I don’t — like f*** the University of Chicago […] Like, why would I put any of my political energy into this space? And I kind of had a moment of disdain for people who spent a lot of time doing that,” she reportedly said at the time.

She’s not mentally stable
And an out lesbian. I’m sure she’d be welcome in Gaza.
Such a crazy beast could only live in America.
I see arrested. How about tried, convicted and imprisoned?
It will be plea bargained to misdemeanors and she’ll walk with probation.
For most part universities are a grift on those paying tuition and on the taxpayers. They produce many who are mentally unstable, self-loathing, variously perverted and politically radical. What a corrosive waste in society. Many professors are absolute losers in life...except they grift outrageous salaries ands benefits.
UChicago is private. They can waste their money any way their governing board and alumni are willing to allow it.
He was arrested and charged with battery, not an alleged battery.
Apparently, you do not need to be either smart or mentally stable to be a college professor.
She uses two subjective pronouns? I hope she lets people know when she is feeling singular and when she is feeling plural.
UChicago is private.

It gets a ton of government money, so it’s not a private university.
De-naturalize and deport
Is she ever critical of expansionist, colonialist, hegemonic Islam?
Does she ever want to teach at an Arab university so she can speak truth to power there and punch up?
Not likely.
This family raised some truly aggressive radicals.
tell us more about the parents.
In the future, published arrest records should include nationality, ethnic origin and political party affiliation. /s
Well, she’s exactly what the U of Chicago wanted. They hired her.
Liberal parents forking over $70k a year apparently don’t care.
