When it comes to Jew-hatred, Cornell has had more than its share in the last several years. Now they are adding yet another. Some gal named Wunpini F. Mohammed, who apparently is a specialist in cartoon studies, is transferring from the University of Georgia to Cornell. There, she will join others of her ilk, like Prof. Russell Rickford, who described himself as "energized" by the Hamas attack and massacre of over 1,200 innocent civilians, who were raped, tortured, murdered, or kidnapped back to Gaza on October 7.
In addition, the campus chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) is quite active, and just recently, a student was arrested for posting death threats against Jews in general. I am also linking the Cornell page from the database of the California-based Amcha Initiative which is devoted to fighting campus anti-Semitism. And just today, Daniel Greenfield, writing in Frontpage Magazine, has a report on a virulently anti-Semitic student, a foreign exchange student no less, named Momodou Taal. As if that were not enough, Cornell is one of several major universities now under investigation by the Dept. of Education, Office of Civil Rights for complaints of anti-Semitic activity
Campus Reform has the report here with several of Mohammed's anti-Jewish screeds.
And what if one would say, "If Muslim folks don't want to be incorrectly associated with Hamas' barbarism and October 7, the answer is to be vehemently anti-Hamas and to work to dismantle Hamas and terrorism"? It cuts many ways.
I also note that Campus Reform, the site that exposes much of the anti-Semitism happening on our campuses, has a gadfly who regularly comments on these stories and always trashes not just Israel, but Jews in general. I won't bother writing his name (which is probably an alias anyway), but you can catch some of his screeds in the reader comment section (along with my comment as well).
So no doubt, Mohammed will fit right in at Cornell and find plenty of company who share her hate for Jews.
