Trinity College’s Johnny Eric Williams’ social media feed after the June 14 shooting of Louisiana Rep. Steve Scalise included racial tirades and commentary calling on minorities to “confront” white people and “end this now,” a reference to an alleged system of “white supremacy.”

“It is past time for the racially oppressed to do what people who believe themselves to be ‘white’ will not do, put end to the vectors of their destructive mythology of whiteness and their white supremacy system. #LetThemF–ingDie,” the associate professor of sociology said June 18 in a series of Facebook posts. “The time is now to confront these inhuman *****les and end this now.”

 

The educational watchdog Campus Reform and The Blaze both reached out to the professor for comment Tuesday to no avail.

Trinity College offered no statement regarding the professor’s action. Instead, the Hartford institution reiterated its right on Facebook to “remove comments that are deemed inappropriate, profane, defamatory, or disrespectful to users of the page and/or members of the greater Trinity College community.”

“So it is OK for one of your professors to issue this hateful divisive statement?” Facebook user Doug McDowell replied Wednesday.

 “@trinitycollege alumni deserve a response from the administration,” added another, Christian C. Michel.

Mr. Williams’ Facebook page also featured an anonymous article on Medium accusing Mr. Scalise of being a racist and “one of the most anti-LGBTQ politicians in Washington.”

 

“If you see [white people] drowning. If you see them in a burning building. If they are bleeding out in an emergency room. If the ground is crumbling beneath them. If they are in a park and they turn their weapons on each other: do nothing,” a June 16 article by “Son of Baldwin” says. “Let. Them. F-ing. Die. And smile a bit when you do.”

Trinity College Professor Flees State Amid Death Threats Over Inflammatory Social Media Posts

6:00 PM ET
 
 

A professor at Trinity College in Connecticut has fled the state after receiving death threats over inflammatory social media statements that he says were taken out of context.

Johnny Williams, who has been a sociology professor at Trinity since 1996, recently shared a Medium article by an author known as "Son of Baldwin" that ended in a "call to show indifference to the lives of bigots," Trinity President Joanne Berger-Sweeney said.

 

The article included an accusation that House Majority Whip Steve Scalise — who was shot last week during a congressional baseball practice and saved by Capitol Police officers who are black — holds racist views. "What does it mean, in general, when victims of bigotry save the lives of bigots?" the article said.

"Saving the life of those that would kill you is the opposite of virtuous," it added. "Let. Them. F---ing. Die."

Williams shared the article on his personal Facebook and Twitter accounts and used the hashtag #LetThemF---Die, including the expletive, prompting an outcry as the posts spread on social media. Trinity closed its campus on Wednesday in response to threats, but reopened Thursday morning because it appeared there was no "immediate threat."

Williams told the Hartford Courant that his posts were made in reference to a fatal police shooting in Seattle, not in reference to the Virginia shooting that injured Scalise.

"They are thinking I'm talking about a Congressman," Williams told the Courant. "That's not at all the case."

"I'm calling for the death of a system, white supremacy, not the death of white people," he added.

Williams, who teaches classes on race and racism, said he has received death threats and decided to leave the state in the midst of the controversy to protect his family and young children.

"The Dean of the Faculty will review this matter and advise me on whether college procedures or policies were broken," Berger-Sweeney said in a letter to the college community on Wednesday. "I told Professor Williams that in my opinion his use of the hashtag was reprehensible and, at the very least, in poor judgment. No matter its intent, it goes against our fundamental values as an institution, and I believe its effect is to close minds rather than open them."

It's nothing new and never changes when a white hating bigot,
racist, nauseating liberal coward texting one thing, even though
it's in print, lies about saying it. All liberals are of the same mind set,
spineless back stabbing lying non Americans.
 
Sadly liberals are very susceptible to hearing only what they want
to hear from, only from those they want to hear. And it ain't the
truth they want, the truth doesn't allow for the stupidity of the
lying ridiculous fake news and violence on a daily basis.

Whites should riot if they don't get rid of that racist SOB, but watch, there won't be another thing done or said about it. The slops haven't made a peep. They're too busy being all torn up over a muzzie getting murdered. Hundreds killed every day and they go nuts over a muzzie. And maybe thugs getting silencers! LOL!
