(THREAD) In the same email, Dean Gay outlines the establishment of the “Harvard College Visiting Professorship in Ethnicity, Indigeneity, and Migration” - which is supposed to bring visiting professors to teach for a year. Here is why we call BS:
1. These visiting professorships are precarious positions and are insulting to our demands for long-term, tenured faculty of color that will help us establish a concrete Ethnic Studies department starting NOW.
2. The program ensures that no matter how badly they want to help our struggle, Ethnic Studies faculty teaching this fall will have absolutely no power in comparison to tenured and tenure-track professors.
3. Do not be fooled by the fact that there are more Ethnic Studies scholars coming in under this plan, because they will literally just disappear after their year is up.
We absolutely love and appreciate those scholars coming, but this does not make up for the FOUR recent Ethnic Studies faculty losses: Lorgia Garcia-Peña, Natasha Warikoo, Ahmed Ragab, and Genevieve Clutario. #EthnicStudiesNow
