Disgraced former #UBC prof Amie Wolf, who is accused of having falsely identified as Indigenous, is now lashing out at us.

Like many, we were initially very sympathetic to Wolf's story & shared it here on this platform in addition to reaching out to her privately. 1/6

But last week, we also shared this troubling tweet by professor Darryl Leroux of Saint Mary's University in Halifax, a leading expert in raceshifting and white claims to Indigenous identity. 2/6

After we shared that tweet, Wolf wrote this blog post about us & this series of Facebook msgs. She calls us "little ones," "kids," "babies, "immature thinkers," "incapable of critical thinking," "a bunch of dopes." She dismisses our post as "moronic," "a "piece of garbage." 3/6

In contrast, Wolf refers to herself as "an Indigenous female professor who ... has more experience and education than you probably do combined." And she hints at the possibility of legal action. 4/6

Not one word about how playing pretend harms Indigenous peoples. Instead, Wolf says we should be disbanded, then suggests we change our name to "SAD – Students Against Dolthood [sic]."

Let's be honest: what's really sad is seeing someone have a public meltdown like this. 5/6

At the same time, we feel an obligation to continue following this story and sharing what we find.

If anyone (especially her former students) has any new information about Wolf, please contact us. We guarantee that, unlike Wolf, we will respect your privacy and anonymity. 6/6
