Virginia State University ignored tenure & procedural protections when they abruptly fired 6 faculty from the university's Agricultural Research Station.

In this episode of AAUP TV, @chenjerai.bsky.social and @proftwolf.bsky.social speak with two of VSU's Fired Six about this egregious decision.

March 3, 1873: Comstock Act Enacted This Reconstructon era anti-obscenity law made it a federal crime to disseminate birth control across state lines or through the mail.

#tdih 1873 Comstock Act enacted

"The Comstock Act defines obscenity so broadly that it can be used to go after not just people making pornography, but sex workers, brothel owners, activists, journalists, writers." - @chenjerai.bsky.social Empire City podcast ⬇️

I cannot wait to listen to this. As a fired fed who represents other fired feds, super excited for it.

Thanks! And yes several new shows since then!

Obvious to everyone here but If you really want to understand what's happening and how to fight it, you need to look at U.S. History and American policing.

And thanks!

It’s my show! Weekly!

ppl on social media lie. You don't actually have a negative thing to say about every person being dragged on the internet. that's not possible. you can't possibly know or have interacted with every main character of the day. you just want to feel relevant in some way so you add your lies to the mix.

New Flavor in your ears!

"These faculty were terminated without the required process, without meaningful notice, and without the protections that tenure and university policy are supposed to guarantee.”

I’ve admired @chenjerai.bsky.social’s work for many years. Grateful he had me on his podcast, and that we had such an in-depth conversation about ICE flights, humanity, and real actions we can take to help our immigrant neighbors.
