5,000 signatures to support George Ciccariello-Maher
The Issue
George is outspoken and witty and fiercely anti-racist. He is being extensively harassed as the target of a racist internet troll campaign out of Breitbart (Stephen Bannon's rag). They are harassing him at his place of employment. Preserve academic freedom (and wit and intelligence and anti-racism) in this nasty new era of living in the United States of Internet Trolls. Support George. Let Drexel know--in the midst of the deafening, organized troll-storm--that racist trolls deserve no platform in dictating academic discourse, let alone the off-duty tweets of academics. They are being VERY noisy; we can't be silent.
