One of the newest teachers at the vaunted Yale University burnished his Ivy League resume in the Black Lives Matter movement.

DeRay McKesson will be teaching a one-credit course this fall as a guest lecturer at Yale Divinity School, according to higher education blog Campus Reform. The outspoken activist will be joining U.S. Sen. Chris Coons, D-Del., and the Rev. Nancy Taylor, whose Old South Church in Boston is located near the site of the 2013 marathon bombing, to teach a special three-section course as part of a new leadership program. The young activist will teach the first section of the course, entitled "Transformational Leadership in the #BlackLivesMatter Movement.”

McKesson is the only guest lecturer who is not an alumnus of Yale Divinity School.

A syllabus for the course describes the credentials of McKesson, 30.

“A young leader of the Black Lives Matter Movement, DeRay McKesson will present case studies about the work of organizing, public advocacy, civil disobedience, and social change, through both Leadership of Presence, and Leadership in the Social Media.”

Here is the 'thank you' letter Barack Obama sent to Shepard Fairey:

"Dear Shepard, I would like to thank you for using your talent in support of my campaign. The political messages involved in your work have encouraged Americans to believe they can help change the status quo. Your images have a profound effect on people, whether seen in a gallery or on a stop sign. I am privileged to be a part of your artwork and proud to have your support. I wish you continued success and creativity.

Sincerely, Barack Obama.'"

What a load of patoot!

From Obama's letter to communist propagandist "Hope" and "Change" artist Shepard Fairey:

"The political messages involved in your work have encouraged Americans to believe they can help change the status quo. Your images have a profound effect on people"

Fairey's "political messages" and "images"? Several glorify communist mass murderers Mao and Stalin. Others, cop killers. He also did a few posters of Saddam Hussein.

A class at Divinity School? What the hell does any of this have to do with a Divinity School/

[M Kehoe]

Good afternoon.

In 0bamaland, black lives matter, but not Caucasian, Oriental or Hispanic lives.
In 0bamaland, black lives matter, but not the police officer of any race.
In 0bamaland, black lives matter, but less important than the illegal immigrants and terrorists crossing the border, and stealing jobs.
In 0bamaland, black lives matter, but not the veterans and military that keeps all of us safe.

In 0bamaland, black lives matter, but not the millions who will be killed by a Persian nuke.

In 0bamaland, Trayvon and Michael Brown (alleged felons), are more important than Chris Kyle and hostages in Persia.

Mr. 0bama, you have blood on your hands...

Allah is pleased (PBOH).

Yale to Establish Islamic Law (Shariah) School

[savagesusie]

All elite universities were taken over in the 30s and many of the leading “Catholic” universities were bought and controlled by the Leftists by 1960s using Federal Grants to control “who” taught and “what” they taught-—like the Beat generation’s philosophy of sex (sodomy), drugs, and narcissism (Ba’al Worship).

Normalizing vice to collapse civil society, and focusing desires on evil, instead of elevating the minds, and inculcating Virtue in children, is the cultural Marxist goal-—to create “happy slaves” ——”group thinkers” for totalitarianism.

Vice creates slavery and collapses cultures. Without Virtue, culture collapses. Christianity is our only virtue (Justice) system, in line with Natural Laws (individualityRepublics) and God’s Laws. Christianity is the only religion/faith banned in public schools, so we can’t transmit that worldview to our children. Schools only embed satanism, materialism, scientism, paganism, Marxism, etc. so children are incapable of being critical thinkers (Classically educated) -—just ideologues and programmed bots of tribal minds, whom have no clue to the Wisdom of Western Civilization (the Bible/Theology/Philosophy) which created the USA.

Hillary at Yale...

Hillary and the [original 1960s] Black Panthers: The Real Story
Legaled.com ^ | Aug 19, 2003 | Richard Poe

I can't take it anymore. If one more person sends me that e-mail about Hillary and the Black Panthers, I'll have to be dragged away screaming in a straitjacket.

You know the e-mail I'm talking about. It accuses Hillary of helping the Black Panthers get away with torture and murder during the early 1970s. With the 2004 presidential race drawing near, the spam mills are creaking to life, flooding the Internet once more with this agitprop classic.

Unfortunately, the e-mail mingles good information with bad, sowing more confusion than enlightenment. Some versions, for instance, carry the byline of radio talk jock Paul Harvey, who says he did not write it. Such misrepresentations help Hillary defenders dismiss the e-mail as a hoax.

The story is no hoax, though. Its basic elements can be found in respected Hillary biographies and exposes such as Barbara Olson's "Hell to Pay," David Brock's "The Seduction of Hillary Rodham," Joyce Milton's "The First Partner" and Carl Limbacher's "Hillary's Scheme."

Here are the facts:

In May 1969, fishermen discovered the body of Black Panther Alex Rackley floating in Connecticut's Coginchaug River. Rackley's captors had clubbed him, burned him with cigarettes, scalded him with boiling water and stabbed him with an ice pick before finally shooting him in the head.

New Haven detectives learned that the Panthers suspected Rackley of being a police informer. Panther enforcers had tied him to a chair and tortured him for hours. Police arrested eight Panthers and later extradited Panther leader Bobby Seale from California, after a witness accused Seale of ordering Rackley's death. (1)

Campus radicals supported the Panthers. They organized mass protests in support of the so-called "New Haven Nine." Hillary was right in the thick of it.

By the time she entered Yale Law School in 1969, Hillary was already a radical celebrity on campus. Life magazine had featured Hillary in a piece titled, "The Class of '69," which showcased three student activists whom Life's editors deemed the best and brightest of the year. A line Hillary used in her Wellesley College commencement speech appeared under her photo: "Protest is an attempt to forge an identity." (2)

At Yale, Hillary helped edit the Yale Review of Law and Social Action – a left-wing journal which promoted cop-killing and featured cartoons of pig-faced police. (3)

A series of hard-Left mentors introduced Hillary to the brass-knuckle realities of revolutionary activism. As a Wellesley undergraduate, she met and interviewed radical organizer Saul Alinsky, whose Machiavellian tactics she admired. Hillary's senior thesis supported Alinsky's call for class warfare. (4)

At Yale, Hillary found a new Svengali in the form of left-wing law professor Thomas Emerson, known around campus as "Tommy the Commie." Emerson recruited Hillary and other students to help monitor the trial of the New Haven Nine for civil rights violations. Hillary took charge of the operation, scheduling the students in shifts, so that student monitors would always be present in the courtroom. She befriended and worked closely with Panther lawyer Charles Garry. (5)

Some believe that the enormous pressure exerted by the Left helped ensure light sentences for the New Haven Nine. Whether or not this is true, the punishments were mild.

"Only one of the killers was still in prison in 1977," reports John McCaslin in the Washington Times. "The gunman, Warren Kimbro, got a Harvard scholarship and became an assistant dean at Eastern Connecticut State College. Ericka Huggins, who boiled the water for Mr. Rackley's torture, got elected to a California school board." (6)

Hillary's defenders argue that she played no "significant" role in the New Haven Nine's defense. This is semantic hairsplitting. Obviously, Hillary was less "significant" than Charles Garry or "Tommy the Commie" Emerson. But Hillary served as a trusted lieutenant to these movers and shakers. Moreover, she had a national profile as a campus activist. Hillary was no rank-and-file student protester, as her apologists claim.

Indeed, Hillary's work for the Panthers won her a summer internship at the Berkeley office of attorney Robert Treuhaft in 1972. A hardline Stalinist, Treuhaft had quit the Communist Party in 1958 only because it was losing members and no longer provided a good platform for his activism. (7) "Treuhaft is a man who dedicated his entire legal career to advancing the agenda of the Soviet Communist Party and the KGB," notes historian Stephen Schwartz. (8)

The defense of the New Haven Nine marked Hillary's initiation into the sinister underworld of the hard-core, revolutionary Left. To my knowledge, Hillary has never publicly renounced nor apologized for her role in that movement.
