Harvard President Resigns – Right Wing Claims Victory
Claudine Gay former Harvard President

Date

After weeks of controversy, the first black, female appointed to Harvard University Presidency has resigned from her post.

It was not a yes or no question.

But it is a question we have all been dealing with for years, and there is no answer.

What’s more important “Free Speech” or Stopping hate speech.

When Donald Trump spews Hate in his speeches, Republicans don’t seem to mind.  

But it’s a different story when it comes to powerful black women. 

Perhaps even more damaging than quitting Harvard, Right Wing Media has accused Claudine Gay of Plagiarism. 

I want to make it clear. There are unsigned “Complaints” about alleged Plagiarism. An investigation is underway. 

The plagiarism charges relate to “inadequate citation in her dissertation and at least two articles.”

This is a quote from Gay’s resignation letter.

“It has been distressing to have doubt case on my commitments to confronting hate and to upholding scholarly rigor — two bedrock values that are fundamental to who I am,” she wrote.

Claudine Gay, 53, who resigned as Harvard’s president on Tuesday, took office in July, becoming the first Black president and the second woman to lead Harvard.

The daughter of Haitian immigrants, she earned an undergraduate degree in economics from Stanford University — where she would later teach — and a Ph.D. in government from Harvard.
