*Ivy League professor Cornel West is returning to the Union Theological Seminary in New York City, says the Associated Press.
West tells the New York Times that he’ll become a professor of philosophy and Christian practices at Union next summer.
West, 58, is a frequent TV and radio commentator as well as a noted social activist. He’s written 19 books, including “Race Matters.”
West was an assistant professor at Union in 1977. He departed from Harvard in 2002 after a dispute with its president. He’s leaving Princeton on good terms and will remain an emeritus professor there.
Union’s president, the Rev. Serene Jones, is one of West’s former students. Jones says the seminary is a good place for West to combine “his scholarly commitments and his activism.”
I guess he feels spiritually guilty for his association with Tavis “Super Ego in de Hood” Smiley and their attempt to derail the Obama presidency and enable the republicans to win the White House in 2012. Those two bufoons are no different than Henry Cain, Clarence Thomas, Ron “Geek” Christy, Thomas Sowell etc. All just doing all in their power to destroy Obama’s election chances. Whenever I see their sickening faces on TV I quickly change channels! Holding my nose. Fanteeking
Why he gotta be dumping?
“He’s leaving Princeton on good terms and will remain an emeritus professor there.”
Why y’all couldn’t just say he was retiring at the height of his career to move on to other things?
Dumping is the most inappropriate term to use here.
Y’all got to make the black man sound so gangsta?
Is it to get back at him for holding our dear president accountable?
