A black feminist historian whose work is being labeled as misleading — and who may have lost her cushy academic job — says it all comes down to an attack on black women.
The New York Times tells the tale of Kerri Greenidge, whose 2022 book “The Grimkes” was hailed for its narrative about a slaveholding family and its work in the abolitionist movement.
Publishers Weekly put the book on its list of that year’s top books, while the American Historical Association handed Greenidge the Joan Kelly Memorial Prize, which honors scholars in women’s history and feminist theory.
But the glow has dimmed as the furor over her flimsy factual foundation is being linked to the end of her gig as a tenured associate professor in the Department of Studies in Race, Colonialism, and Diaspora at Tufts University — and the loss of a book deal.
Huh. Author accused of fabrication and plagiarism claims she’s the victim of discrimination against black women. https://t.co/fNiqveEj8Y

Just the tip of the “academic” iceberg, I’m afraid, where this sort is concerned.
She purloined awards that by rights and scholarship belonged to otthers.
“Plays the race card when caught”
She’s undoubtedly been doing it her whole life.
Which is how she got where she is to begin with.
If trends identified on YouTube have any accuracy at all, even other blacks are sick and tired of blaming Whitey for all their problems.
Facts be racist, yo...
Is this her?
The white bosses aren’t as scared as they used to be.
I’d be fired for either not attending or if forced to attend containing my laughter.
Different black female, same attitude about all White people.
This image shows Ashleigh Shackelford, a writer, cultural producer, and independent scholar, standing next to a whiteboard during a presentation or workshop.
Just from the name alone, one can tell the woke groupthink must be off the charts within that organization.
True dat.
Department of Studies in Race, Colonialism, and Diaspora
She’s just another part of the race to the bottom when it comes to our universities.
No, that’s “Ashleigh Shackleford” as her right hand chart shows— a dot com at her name and another one
one might say she is still A ROUND— this sausage packed unreal appearance of angry blek and nasty “you owe me” ‘cause.
A@@hleigh keepin it real and in white people’s face— maintaining black fatigue for a fee!
MOST, of the history, psychology, sociology, “scientific models” surrounding these faddy and trendy movements that fit into the currents of time are bullshit.
These are people smart enough top make a living riding on these fads / trends.
She is basically no different than her (her mommy and daddy made a fortune with her crying on a podium): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greta_Thunberg#/media/File:Greta_Thunberg_in_November_in_Stockholm_(cropped)(2).jpg
It’s all junk.
Once the fad fades they are in trouble. They have to reinvent themselves or resuscitate the crisis.
For Greta it was moving away from Climate Change and latching onto the Palestinian issue.
But some can’t reinvent themselves. Their entire existence is this one issue. Once that issue fades, they find themselves surfing a wave that is fading away as it comes to land. Now what?
Just like Jazzy Crackpot.
Is that real or generated?
Exactly. Anyone else getting tired of hearing this old refrain every time they get caught? Indeed, it's used so often and is now worn so thin that it carries no sway in any argument. Time for "If you did the crime, you do the time."
