"Saida Grundy, an incoming assistant professor of sociology and
African-American studies at the school, tweeted in recent weeks that
"white masculinity is THE problem for america's (sic) colleges," white
men are a "problem population," and that she tries to avoid shopping at
white-owned businesses. On Friday, her new employer's spokesman, Colin
Riley, told FoxNews.com that the tweets came from Grundy's personal
Twitter account and that she was "exercising her right to free speech
and we respect her right to do so.""
Saida Grundy is an obvious racist and Anglophobe. Her one-sided view of the world can not possibly nurture open debate and contemplation of the subject matter she is supposed to present to impressionable students at Boston University. Her bigoted tweets and publicly espoused opinions on race should preclude her from a teaching position at any school.
Saida Grundy should be allowed her opinions and freedom of speech to say these racially charged and incendiary statements, but should suffer the public consequences of her statements as have others that have made openly racist statements in the past such as Paula Deen, Anthony Cumia, and Justine Sacco.
Let Dr. Robert Brown know the American people will not stand for a racist educator indoctrinating the youth of America!
Dr. Brown! Fire Saida Grundy TODAY!

Ridiculous. If a white professor made this comment he or she would be fired. She is getting defended saying that she has free speech. It's double standard, if a white person said that and quoted free speech they would be doomed. That was a racist stupid comment.
I believe that if Nancy Gordeuk has lost her job due to stating her observation (not that I agree with her statement), Saida Grundy should also lose her job for her "insensitive" statements.
We need to move away from a system where racist comments are excused by any subsegment of our society. They should be OK for NOONE! Similarly the punishment should be the same for everyone.
It shouldn't matter what your skin color is, racism is still racism and this professor should be held accountable for her bigotry. A white principal in Georgia made similar remarks towards black students and was fired, so why shouldn't this professor get the same treatment? Racism is racism.
You don't end racism with racism and hate. She did not have enough grey matter to know this was not the correct thing to publically say (even if she was thinking it)? I'd hate to be a white male in her class. With her level of distain they won't get a fair grade; she is too blinded by hate.
It's amazing how they cite free speech in some cases but not others. If a white professor tweeted that they refuse to shop at black owned businesses then you can guarantee that the university would have fired them.
She is a racist if she was why she wouldn't be allowed to work there.

A person regardless of age, race, religion, or sex who publicly makes racially charged or biased comments has no place as a professor of higher education and should be terminated. Furthermore to use profanity towards another person on social media is unbecoming of a person in Miss Grundy's position.
