Carnegie Mellon University Refuses To Fire Prof Uju Anya by Kemistri4(m): 11:15pm On Sep 09, 2022 |
Carnegie Mellon University professor Uju Anya posted on Twitter several hours before the Queen's death that she hoped the Queen an 'excruciating death' She then doubled down on her vile sentiment and said she had nothing but 'disdain' for the Queen The university responded that they don't condone Anya's sentiment but reiterated that 'free expression' was important to them Her vile tweets were slammed by thousands online, including Amazon CEO Bezos Her Majesty died Thursday at the age of 96. She passed away surrounded by members of the Royal Family at Balmoral Castle in Scotland After posting an initial tweet hoping for the Queen's 'excruciating death,' Carnegie Mellon University professor Uju Anya reiterated her beliefs about the late monarch and said she 'supervised a government that sponsored genocide.' But the university has so far refused to punish their professor, and said in a statement posted to Twitter Thursday evening 'We do not condone the offensive and objectionable messages posted by Uju Anya today on her social media account.' 'Free expression is core to the mission of higher education,' they said, indicating Anya would not see consequences for her tweet. 'However, the views she shared absolutely do not represent the values of the institution, nor the standards of discourse we seek to foster,' they concluded.

Freedom of speech. Even though I don't agree with her choice of words I cannot condemn her for saying what she said. She is entitled to her opinion. |

Many people don't know that the controversy generated by Anya's tweets will leave the university in public discourse, thus, increasing their ranking among other world universities. Watch out the school's position in the next global varsity rankings. It must surely come up. 1 Like |

Why hasnt she resigned from the ''slavery country and returm back to her fore fathers Eastern Nigeria to continue her ranting so we could really take her serious. How many non Igbos re lecturers and professors in Imsu or umudikwe. But the fool went to the so called slavery country to earn a living and even used their liberal democracy to become a lesbo. She for try that lesbo shhit here and knw wassup. Does she know how many ibos who are in Europe playing professional football and sending pounds and euros home for their kinsmen. Africa is forever indebted to Europe for their light and technology they extended to Africa If they wud still hv been in d woods naked hunting rats with bows and arrows. Effing ingrates |

Some said the British brought ended slavery, killing of twins and brought education I laughed. There is a huge difference between Queen Elizabeth and the Christian missionaries. There were all British but had different ambitions, goal, and purpose of coming to the Africa. 1). The queen had her purpose of invading Africa 2). Mongo park had his purpose 3). Columbus had his purpose 4). Mary Slessor a Scottish had her purpose Majority of the good things you mentioned above if not all was carried out by Christian missionaries who by their good intentions built schools and gave free educations, clothed the necked, constructed bridges, medical treatment, and gave scholarships to people and preached against slavery to the Queen and cohort. Marry Slessor a missionary preached against twins killing not the queen and co. It wasn't the queen that did these things. Later lots of Christians like Marthin Luther King junior began to preach against racism and slavery that was when the west including the queen and co had no choice than to stop those atrocities. They then invaded our natural resources like crude, gold, diamond, etc....... Maybe you should ask yourself the full meaning of the word "colonization" and to whose benefits |
