Iowa Professor Warns Students Might Get Dismissed If They Oppose Pro-Choice Or Black Lives Matter Positions

An English professor at Iowa State University warned students that they might get dismissed from the class if they argue against abortion or criticize the Black Lives Matter movement, according to her syllabus.

The syllabus, which was obtained by Young America’s Foundation, was written by professor Chloe Clark, a 2016 Iowa State University graduate, for students who will be attending her English 250 class. The student who sent the syllabus to the organization wanted to remain anonymous, fearing retribution.

Clark notified students that “othering” is prohibited in her class, as well as “any topic that takes at its base that one side doesn’t deserve the same basic human rights.” Examples for the latter, according to the professor, include pro-life arguments and arguments against gay marriage and the Black Lives Matter movement.

And law schools. Big women’s studies influence there.

Look at that face. She’s miserable in her own skin. She thinks that pushing this leftfield idea will make her feel better. When that doesn’t work, she’ll try something even more radical and assinine.

Yet more evidence that Higher Education is a melting pot of opposing ideas that fosters healthy debate.

“any topic that takes at its base that one side doesn’t deserve the same basic human rights.”

The fact that a baby killer is saying this is the height of hypocrisy.

Kids are getting an education, they just don’t realize what kind.

I’d bet she is a “protester” for BLM by night.

Via DuckDuckGo - - -

By “othering”, we mean any action by which an individual or group becomes mentally classified in somebody’s mind as “not one of us”. Rather than always remembering that every person is a complex bundle of emotions, ideas, motivations, reflexes, priorities, and many other subtle aspects, it’s sometimes easier to dismiss them as being in some way less human, and less worthy of respect and dignity, than we are.

Not one of us . . .
Mentally classified in somebody’s mind . . .

Well, to start with, I am Not a Girl.

“is prohibited in her class, as well as “any topic that takes at its base that one side doesn’t deserve the same basic human rights.””

Like pro-abortionists argue that the child in the womb deserves no human rights?

I was expecting a lesbian cow with blue hair and a nose-ring, but close enough.

Any student who sets another foot in her class is a damned fool, or woke, not sure which is worse. For that matter, sue the school for suppressing your civil rights under the color of authority.
