Self-identifying as Boricua, not Puerto Rican (BLACK Puerto Rican), George Washington University (GWU) Professor Jessica Krug, History. Her faculty page identifies her as a historian of politics and cultural practices in Africa and the African Diaspora, with a particular interest in West Central Africa and Black transnational cultural studies. Last year, her book, "Fugitive Modernities", published in 2018 by Duke University Press, was a finalist for the Frederick Douglass Book Prize and the Harriet Tubman Prize.
In this past week she has relinquished her claim of having a black identity. She is now under investigation by GWU and will not be teaching classes this semester. In a 2019 publication, Professor Krug listed a bio; "Jessica A. Krug is an unrepentant and unreformed child of the hood. ... Much of her time, energy, and all of her heart are consumed in the struggle for her community in El Barrio and worldwide, whether against the violence of the state as manifest by police, the encroaching colonialism of gentrification, or around issues of community health and environmental justice."
She now admits that her real life upbringing was as a white Jewish child in suburban Kansas City. Query(?) Was there no family or were they so clueless or dedicated to her "Cultural Appropriation"?
