A group of black academics has denounced the “racist, vicious, and ugly personal attacks” against Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas since he sided with the majority in overturning Roe v. Wade.
In a letter published last week, the academics wrote that “whether it is calling him a racist slur, an ‘Uncle Tom’ or questioning his ‘blackness’ over his jurisprudence, the disparagement of this man, of his faith and of his character, is abominable.”
“White progressives do not have the moral authority to excommunicate a black man from his race because they disagree with him,” the letter continued to say.
Those who signed the measure include Woodson Center founder Robert Woodson Sr., Brown University professor Glenn Lour, Hoover Institute research fellow Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Seeking Educational Excellence head Charles Love, and Havre de Grace’s W. Barclay Allen….
