Fire Ward Churchill

Eugene Volokh and Stephen Bainbridge both think that Ward Churchill shouldn't be fired, because firing him is an infringement of freedom of speech. Bainbridge invokes Voltaire as the justification for keeping him on the payroll courtesy of the taxpayers of Colorado:

This one of those occasions when those of us on the right need to suck it up and echo the line famously attributed to Voltaire: "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." We do not remain true to our values if we are willing to say "free speech for me, but not for thee," even if that is what Churchill likely would say if the shoe were on the other foot.

The problem is not that Churchill is endorsing mass murder. The problem is that Colorado taxpayers are paying for it. And Churchill is a vile, hate-filled apologist for mass murder. Let's put the shoe on the other foot. Imagine a professor, not only a professor, but chairman of his department, not just simply engaging in Holocaust denial(leftist antiSemitism is routine on campus), but actually endorsing the actions of the Nazis(read Churchill yourself, and judge). Would any reasonable person expect a professor to still be employed at that institution, tenured or not?

Bainbridge and Volokh seem to be reading something into the first amendment that I don't see. How did

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

Turn into
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances, and tenured professors shall be guaranteed a paycheck, regardless of which acts of mass murder they endorse.

Churchill has never endoresed mass murder. What a lie. Try reading his words before repeating other peoples' slander.

In the academic world, one can't overcome an opponent by deleting his posts or outspending his political campaign; one must engage in actual debate. That's why progressives, who tend to win debates with conservatives and fascists, have more power there than in government and business. But government officials and businessmen have some power in the academic world by virtue of position and wealth, and it is that influence that prevents the left from completely dominating there as it otherwise would.

None of the smears against Churchill stand up to scrutiny, but that does not slow down their repetition by participants in the witch hunt. We see Churchill ambushed by a TV crew, in between classes and death threats. The interviewer's insolent tone ("looks like you ripped it off") leads me to doubt his denial that the camera crew initiated the physical confontation. Given the context of what appears to be a well-orchestrated campaign, my guess is that the crew entered the campus with the mission of assaulting Churchill and filming his response, much like police who assault people and then charge them with the crime they themselves have just committed.

As for the plagiarism charge, I believe Churchill's explanation that he had the original artist's explicit permission. It's a little difficult to settle the issue, given that the artist is no longer around; but the raising of such an obscure point when the overriding issue is Churchill's political activity suggests that someone put a lot of effort into digging up dirt and found damned little of any substance.

Regarding the attack by Thomas Brown, read this:
http://www.columbia.edu/~lnp3/mydocs/indian/ThomasBrown.htm

And here is a good perspective on the whole thing:
http://www.kersplebedeb.com/mystuff/s11/churchill_rwor.html

Churchill is highly regarded by his students, academic colleagues, and by legions of progressives (including me) who value him as both scholar and leader. His tenure was well-deserved and well-earned, and is now serving precisely the purpose for which tenure is designed, namely, as a bulwark against political attack. Almost none of Churchill's attackers can even quote him accurately. This discussion is not really about anything Churchill has done wrong. Rather, it's about what he's done right. He's being targeted for clarifying our understanding of American oppression and the the stuggle against it, and for inspiring those engaged in that struggle and related ones around the world.

Churchill has never endoresed mass murder. What a lie. Try reading his words before repeating other peoples' slander.

If there was a better, more effective, or in fact any other way of visiting some penalty befitting their participation upon the little Eichmanns inhabiting the sterile sanctuary of the twin towers, I'd really be interested in hearing about it. --Ward Churchill

Silly me. All he did was say that the workers at the WTC were mass murderers who deserved their fate. That is sooo much better.


In the academic world, one can't overcome an opponent by deleting his posts or outspending his political campaign; one must engage in actual debate.

What debate? The modern academy are a bunch of hothouse flowers. You use speech codes to stifle any dissent(witness Thomas Klocek and Larry Summers). You intimidate students, and deny tenure to professors who are not doctrinaire lefties. And you claim to foster a climate of debate? On what planet?

That's why progressives, who tend to win debates with conservatives and fascists, have more power there than in government and business

If "progressives"(read: leftists and communists) are so effective at winning debates, then how come the left has been spending the last 8 years being beaten in the presidential race, and the last 10 years being beaten in literally thousands of House and Senate races? How come the majority of state houses and governors are all Republican? How good are your legendary powers of debate when you can't convince a majority of your natural correctness?


But government officials and businessmen have some power in the academic world by virtue of position and wealth, and it is that influence that prevents the left from completely dominating there as it otherwise would.

In other words, because they pay your salary. But since governments are elected by the people, they obviously all should agree with you, because you progressives are such master debaters, right? Yet even the majority of Democrats think your views are intolerable.


None of the smears against Churchill stand up to scrutiny, but that does not slow down their repetition by participants in the witch hunt.

Really? Then where is the release? Why does Ryan Mails, Thomas Mails' son, say "I cannot imagine he would ever grant permission to anyone to copy one of his pieces." Churchill was hired as an affirmative action hire, yet isn't even native American! Not only that, he doesn't have a doctorate in the field he purports to be an expert in, and received a department chair for. How many department chairs are given to people without PhDs?

I'd go on, but frankly, for someone who is such an excellent debater, you seem to have an argument so full of holes I could drive a fleet of SUVs through it. The great scholar from a second rate college who couldn't get a ph.d, committed plagiarism, and applauds the deaths of thousands of Americans. Gee, what a hero.

It's a fact: of the twenty or thirty posts I've made to right-wing blogs and fora in the past couple of weeks, almost all have been deleted without comment, shortly after I posted them.

The left has always been starved for coverage of its positions by a media that is owned mostly by its enemies; but in recent years we have been virtually shut out. Most of the public simply hasn't had a chance to hear our arguments. and even public broadcasting has been chivvied to the right of center over the past twenty years.

Before the end of the Fairness doctrine that required media outlets to grant equal time to all sides of a political issue, Democrats dominated politics, in number of officeholders and registered voters.

The charge that universities and colleges constrain debate unfairly, or that students are punished for right-wing viewpoints is absurd on its face to most students. Most reputable colleges and universities provide students with a formal process by which students anonymously comment upon their teachers' performance, and these criticisms are incorporated into the formal process of evaluating faculty. Professors who bully their students are detected and punished by this mechanism.

One cannot obtain a Ph.D. without verbally defending one's thesis against a panel of challengers. Stop by the bulletin boards of any university and you'll see a host of flyers ranging the political spectrum from Spartacists to Ayn Rand and beyond. Those who spend their lives seeking the truth know that debate is essential to attaining it. Claims to the contrary by Horowitz, Will and others are part of a nationally organized attempt to punish politically progressive scholars and frighten their colleagues and students, an attempt, in other words, to constrain debate and bury the truth.

Churchill's ethnicity has been verified many times, first of all by the University itself. Like the other charges, this is pure smear.
See "He's not Indian!" in

The claim that Churchill's "little Eichmann" sentence endorses mass murder is a cynical perversion of what he wrote.

One of the lies inherent in this perversion is the tacit denial that any "little Eichmanns" existed, then or now. To the contrary, it's clear that _some_ of those killed in the WTC attacks _did_, indeed, deserve punishment, _were_, indeed, criminals bearing capital responsibility for some the horrifying crimes the United States has committed. One sometime "little Eichmann" has repented and written a book about his crimes:
http://www.democracynow.org/article.pl?sid=04/11/09/1526251
The CIA, which had offices in the WTC, has been run by Wall Street bankers and lawyers throughout its history. Regarding our crimes abroad and the CIA's role in it, read
http://www.thirdworldtraveler.com/Blum/William_Blum.html

In Churchill's offending paragraph,

"To the extent that any of them were unaware of the costs and consequences to others of what they were involved in ... it was because of their absolute refusal to see ... arranging power lunches and stock transactions, each of which translated, conveniently out of sight, mind and smelling distance, into the starved and rotting flesh of infants"

Churchill is clearly saying that the "little Eichmanns" had earned their fate, not that his readers should go out and attack likewise.

Churchill is the last guy on the planet to advocate mass murder; he has studied genocide in depth and in detail. His whole academic and political career stands against it (several of his books include the word in their titles).

His language is _meant_ to strike us harshly; he is verbally slapping his readers in the face and demanding that they wake up to the reality that, as a nation, we _did_ have it coming, and _that_ is our real problem.

Mainly because your are a left wing loon who engages in conspiracy theories and rabid anti-american propaganda. I let you post because you demonstrate just how nuts the left is today.

You are joking right? The media is uniformly left wing. The only reason why you don't see it as so is because you are a rabid commie.

Then why do sites like No Indoctrination exist?

If they value debate so much, then why did the UofAlabama faculty senate adopt a speech code?

Golly gee, every single footnote in that article points to something Churchill himself wrote, and none of the footnotes actually trace the lineage back to his actual ancestry. However, the Denver post actually checked his ancestry, and guess what? No Cherokee on his mother's side at all. QED, he's not Cherokee, not the least little bit.

In other words, that they deserved to die. No, that's so much better than calling for genocide("US out of North America"--Ward Churchill).

I'd love to continue to engage you in conversation, but you are empirical proof as to how much higher education is now a slave to the violent left. That you excuse Ward Churchill is proof of that.
