This video discusses the downfall of *Kerri Greenidge*, a former tenure-track associate professor at *Tufts University* (0:54, 6:53). Her 2022 book, *The Grimke Sisters: The Legacy of Slavery in an American Family*, which initially received significant acclaim and awards, was later exposed for containing major academic inaccuracies (1:15, 3:05, 3:50).
**Key findings regarding the book's flaws include:** * **Fabricated Sources:** *Greenidge* cited non-existent letters in the *University of Michigan* archives (4:40).
* **Sensationalized History:** The book inaccurately described the burning of *Pennsylvania Hall* in 1838, claiming the *Grimke* sisters led women to safety from an active fire when, in reality, the building was empty (5:05-5:27).
* **Unsubstantiated Claims:** *Greenidge* asserted that the sisters callously ignored the suffering of African Americans during a 1834 riot without providing supporting evidence (5:30-5:50).
**Consequences and Response:** Following an investigation by an expert panel at *Tufts*, *Greenidge* was removed from the faculty (6:30-6:50). Her publisher subsequently withdrew the book (1:36, 7:22). In response, *Greenidge* characterized the criticism as a racially motivated attack on Black women in academia and reportedly filed a restraining order against the retired history professor who first exposed the flaws in the book (7:37-8:50).

So how about they stop making stuff up/stealing other people's work and do real work instead?
I once asked a ‘’DEI Co-Ordinator’’ something as innocuous a question as “You say we’re all equal and diversity is our strength. If we’re all equal how is diversity our strength?’’
The only answer I ever got to that question, was in effect, that if I ever opened my mouth and asked a question like that again to a ‘’senior administrator’’ I’d be fired.
“The only answer I ever got to that question, was in effect, that if I ever opened my mouth and asked a question like that again to a ‘’senior administrator’’ I’d be fired.”
Exploding heads and all.
It appears fiction writing is a Greenidge family trait.
Sounds like that person was an idiot. I'd have at least been able to come up with some smooth platitude about being equal in value but with diverse perspectives, and made some analogy about a table with four equal legs, but the legs are in different corners, otherwise it would fall over.
I don't think diversity is our strength, however.
Does she say “ax”? Just curious
Diversity & Perversity
The two sides of the Leftist coin.
I asked AI, “why is it ok to have black-specific organizations, caucus, etc., but not ok to have white-only groups?”
Response: “The distinction between Black-specific and white-only organizations rests on historical context, power dynamics, and the specific purpose of the groups. Black-focused groups generally aim to support a historically marginalized group, build community, and address systemic disadvantages, whereas white-only groups historically reinforce exclusion and dominant power structures.”
Translation: Whites are the bad guys.
Oh noes!! She was FIRED?!?!? But……but…….but, she was almost tenured!!! You can’t do this! Oh the humanity!
Yet another
“We waz kangs” moments.
Remember Roots? The Alex Haley “biograhy cum fantasy novel”? Made great TV! Liberals wallowed in it......gave the liar AND plagiarist a pass when debunked.
The lies about the Tuskegee Airmen’s adoring fan boy club claiming zero bomber losses and “respect” from white units?
George Washington Carver “Invented Peanut Butter” that existed since Aztec times and the modern version patented 1884 (before Carver’s work).
The FAKE Willie Lynch Letter (1712) Claim: 1712 speech by Virginia slave owner detailing how to control slaves by “making a slave a slave for life”first appearing in 1993.
Rosa Parks as “Tired Seamstress” actually a paid NAACP activists made for photo op moment.
Ancient Egyptians/Greek Royalty Claims: Ancient Egyptians and Greeks were black Africans; pharaohs were black; Cleopatra was black, Hannibal, Sparta, Athens, etc.
1619 Project Claims: American Revolution fought primarily to preserve slavery; slavery uniquely American evil, etc, author actually awarded a Pulitzer Prize despies lies.
Just a flavor….
I remember that black “journalist” who was fired from some large publisher for totally inventing stories. “Blair” something, IIRC.
Ai is fed all the billions of words of leftist diversity tripe.
It will always vbe dangerous to whites and a tool to white genocide.
Maybe she and Michael Bellesiles can get together and work on a book about how none of the black kids in the inner cities actually have guns.
Demanding verifiable research and insistence on confining oneself to factual statements regarding past events are signs of a persistent, toxic, and oppressive White-supremist patriarchy.
And you are a misogynistic racist if you disagree! /s
There was once a utopian society in Africa called Wakanda. They had advanced technology and everyone there was happy, free, and lived as one with nature and the universe. But best of all, there were no white people. Then one day, Abraham Lincoln invaded with an army of zombies and vampires. They enslaved everyone and destroyed all knowledge of the existence of Wakanda. It wasn’t until hundreds of years later that Barack Obama freed them again, so that Wakandan heroes like Trayvon Martin and George Floyd can once again be celebrated as role models.
Thatz nun of yo bidness
Most black “perfesers” ARE LIARS. Anyone who has ever gone to college knows that.
She doesn’t look like she ever picked cotton.
And did the slaves “exscape?”
