Mark Amsler (Auckland NZ), University of Auckland. I join with and fully support colleagues and friends in IPPS and medieval studies worldwide in supporting open, critical debate about knowledge and knowledge regimes. Racism, bigotry, and ad hominem bullying should not prevail.

We cannot tolerate racism and bigotry in our institutions of higher education. Faculty should not be silenced by means of threats of violence and racist denigration. Fulton Brown is destroying the heart of our disciplines with her insistence on using threats to silence those who disagree with her.

"We will not be satisfied till justice rolls down..." Racists and racism have no place in the academy, and we must fight it every time it appears no matter the perpetrator.

"Where we find bigotry, intolerance, hate, and fear of ‘the other’ in the past...we must recognize it for what it is and read it in its context, rather than replicating it.” Fulton Brown replicates all of these dynamics--bigotry, intolerance, hate, and fear of ‘the other’--in her targeting of Dorothy Kim.

Disagreeing with a colleague's approach or interpretation is a valuable part of the intellectual discussion that is scholarship and the creation of knowledge. Attacking someone for their race/gender/sexual orientation or for any other personal aspect of their being represents a complete intellectual failure and is beneath the dignity of even an undergraduate scholar. Sadly, those who feel threatened often resort to such pathetic attacks the attempt to challenge scholars to whom they feel inferior. Fulton Brown should just admit her inferiority and apologize to Dr. Kim. Dr. Kim, continue your good work.

Shame on you Rachel Fulton Brown. Women like you call upon all women to stick together to get women who like you ahead and then you crap on WOC. Shame....shame..shame.

Academic freedom doesn't include the right to harass, demean, or threaten one's colleagues, or to treat them with public scorn and incivility. Such behavior is both unprofessional and unethical.
