"UNC professor suspended for anti-fascist activism returns to class
Dwayne Dixon, whose unpaid leave was lifted last week, denounced the actions of chancellor Lee Roberts as harmful to free speech.
(. . .)
Dixon’s suspension came after Fox News published a story alleging he was a member of a group related to another organization that posted fliers on Georgetown University’s campus making light of the death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. That story prompted a Turning Point USA spokesperson to demand Dixon be 'immediately fired.'
He was reinstated five days later after student and faculty protests, petitions, and a letter threatening legal action from the ACLU of North Carolina. A UNC spokesperson wrote that a threat assessment 'found no basis to conclude that he poses a threat to University students, staff, and faculty, or has engaged in conduct that violates University policy.'
Roberts said in a faculty council meeting on Friday that he was also motivated by a 2018 video of Dixon that came to his attention over the weekend where he was 'loading a semiautomatic weapon and then firing that weapon' while 'talking about the need for confrontation.'
A former member of Redneck Revolt, an anti-fascist 'community defense formation' that encouraged bearing arms for self-defense, Dixon was arrested in 2017 for bringing a rifle to an anti-Ku Klux Klan rally in Durham. The charges were dismissed, as was a 2018 assault charge from a protest where UNC’s confederate statue was taken down.
'What I’m doing in that video is something that millions of Americans do every day, which is plinking targets, plinking cans, right?' Dixon said Wednesday. 'The use of my Second Amendment [rights] is hardly reason or justification for such a severe draconian action on his part.'
Dixon added that at the Durham protest, he carried his rifle at 'the very early stages' of the protest to deter violence in case KKK members showed up for a confrontation. 'Once there was enough people to ensure wider safety, I unloaded and put away my rifle.'
Dixon and his supporters warned Wednesday that his swift removal from the campus is part of a larger troubling crackdown on speech on university campuses.

#ElectronicIntifada | UK government funds pro-genocide University Jewish Chaplaincy
"The UJC is thus arguably breaching this obligation in knowingly employing extremists who have been in breach of international law. They have done so by studying or training in illegal Israeli settlements in the West Bank and by taking part in war crimes with Israeli occupation forces."

Oscar Rorra y los subterráneos de la militancia
Gerardo SuarezEl Chasque 15727/09/2024 Su vida militante tiene de todo un poco: barrio, clandestinidad, exilio, karate, Comcar y clases de filosofía. Oscar Rorra pasó por hechos y experiencias que hacen de su historia un verdadero testimonio de lo que significa ser uno de esos militantes que luchan toda la vida. Nacido en el barrio Sur de Montevideo en el año 1953, Rorra comienza su vida militante en la Unión de la Juventud Comunista (UJC), organización a la que aún se refiere como “la juventud”. De ahí en más el curso que tomó su vida estuvo fuertemente marcado por lo que la militancia y el contexto político le demandaron. El karate, al igual que la militancia, ocupa gran parte de su quehacer cotidiano desde la adolescencia. En dicha disciplina se coronó varias veces campeón nacional y compitió en ciudades como El Cairo y Los Ángeles. A la edad de 51 años se recibió de profesor de filosofía en el Instituto Profesores de Artigas (IPA), docencia que ejerció en centros como el Comcar.
