John McWhorter used to teach linguistics at Cal. I don't know what happened to him. He may be in some sort of Symbionese or Sino-Viet re-education camp, undergoing mandatory sensitivity training.
He told me once he would speak at ANY campus but Berkeley when asked to do so/

Linguistics is Marxism Ground Zero. How can you be sane today in that field? It's as twisted from reality as Soviet genetics. It's been totally polluted by extreme leftist politics.
Had the world been sane, I would be in that field today. It's my PASSION. That's my personal pet peeve against Marxists.
