NYU chemistry professor who was fired after students complained his class was too DIFFICULT says colleges need to 'apply a little tough love' and 'end coddling' - but school claims he was just a bad teacher

Former organic chemistry professor at NYU, Maitland Jones Jr, 84, was fired in August after a group of students signed a petition against him suggesting his course was too difficult. The former longtime Princeton academician, had 82 of his 350 organic chemistry students sign the petition citing his teaching methods and course outline as reasons for their poor grades. 'We are very concerned about our scores, and find that they are not an accurate reflection of the time and effort put into this class,' the petition said.

President Joe Biden says 'it's wrong' for states to ban sex reassignment surgery and puberty blockers for kids in White House interview with transgender TikToker Dylan Mulvaney

Joe Biden said in an interview with a transgender TikTok star that doesn't think states should have the power to regulate any health care related to a person transitioning from one sex to the other. The president denounced Republican states that have passed laws attempting to ban or limit sex change surgeries and transition treatments - like hormone blockers - for children who identify as non binary or transgender. Biden spoke with a panel of six progressive activists for the NowThis News presidential forum on Friday, which aired on Sunday. One of the six panelists was TikTok star Dylan Mulvaney who is documenting their transition from a gay male to trans woman.

Muslim-Americans find common ground with conservatives over politicization of America's schools

An alliance is forming in some communities across the country between Muslim American parents and conservative groups over what they see as leftist, woke politicization of America's schools. Muslim Americans have increasingly begun showing up at school boards from Minnesota to Virginia to excoriate education officials for embracing woke priorities, including critical race theory, and allowing explicit materials in the classroom.

"We’re hearing from folks in the community that they’re tired of the politicization of the schools their children attend," said Preya Samsundar, the Republican National Committee's Midwest communications director. "It’s not just explicit materials in schools, but they're concerned about [COVID-19] lockdowns, distance learning, the quality of education, woke politics in classrooms, and the achievement."

For many the fight is personal. Muslim Americans, especially recent immigrants, have long viewed U.S. schools as the key to upward mobility and success. That viewpoint has changed for some in recent years, however.

John Fetterman’s wife claims ‘swimming in America is very racist’

Gisele Fetterman, the wife of Pennsylvania Senate candidate Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, claimed that "swimming in America is very racist," weeks after being called the "de facto candidate" in her husband's Senate race following his stroke.

Gisele Fetterman began speaking about the lieutenant governor's mansion in Pennsylvania and how the couple wanted to open up the pool to the public in an effort to "right some of the wrongs" of "racist" swimming.

"While we did not want the mansion, that mansion came with a pool I wanted. And the dream was to make this a public pool and turn it into the people’s pool and ensure that young people across Pennsylvania could learn how to swim and water safety and kind of work to right some of the wrongs," Gisele Fetterman stated during her segment with iGen Politics podcast.

"Historically, swimming in America is very racist, and usually when you look at drowning statistics, it usually effects children of color because of lack of access," Gisele Fetterman claimed.

University of California Santa Barbara's Black Students Union holds free Black Panther: Wakanda Forever screening - but asks white students NOT to attend

The University of Southern California's Black Student Union invited university students to a free, private screening of the recently released Wakanda Forever, but asked white students not to attend. A post to the BSU's Instagram page featured two graphics for the event, which was described as a 'Black-centered' activity that would ideally not be inclusive of other races. A spokesperson insisted Wednesday's screening was open to all - although the tone of the flyer advertising it could spark claims the students' union was hoping to exclude white students by stealth.

Monkey pox to be given a re branding as it is racist and stigmatising. Now to be known as mpox.

Could be me but I think origins and species are important for educational reasons as I would have never got mad c***** disease otherwise.
