Thanks for your feedback and for reading. If you read the orignal story from the 19th, you will see that the staff at the university (the liberals you mentioned) and the tenure committee (the liberal academics mentioned) both supported her Tenure.I know all too well the dangers of white liberalism. But this time, it was conservatives. As the 19th story explains, white conservative groups pressured the board of trustees to deny Hannah-Jones' tenure. While it's fair to say that not all liberals support the 1619 Project, polling shows the majority of the opposition comes from conservative white people. And in this particular case, they were the reason why she did not receive tenure like all the First Chair Knights who came before her.
