> Over the past week, certain corners of the Internet have identified and mischaracterized the events of a community conversation held at Northwestern Law on June 3, together with a few comments made at that event. Although we had hoped not to dignify these mischaracterizations with a response, they continue, with potentially harmful effects both to individual members of our community and to our community as a whole.

The wonderful thing about Zoom is that everything is in print and nobody needs to rely on after-the-fact "characterizations." There is no allegation that the screenshots of what he said were doctored.


Yet you still managed to misquote him, because what he said wasn't controversial enough for you.


Fair enough. He said he was “a racist” and another person in the administration said she was a “gatekeeper of white supremacy.” I was going by memory and mixed the two together in my head.
