Boston University prof allegedly taunted rape victim
Quote:
Boston University has reportedly been alerted of a new online exchange in which controversial professor Saida Grundy allegedly taunted a rape victim and angrily told her to “go cry somewhere.”
Ms. Grundy, a newly hired sociology professor who recently apologized for tweeting that white males are a “problem population,” is now accused of mercilessly mocking Meghan Chamberlin in a Facebook thread on Feb. 25.
“I LITERALLY cry and lose sleep over this,” Ms. Chamberlin wrote, adding she had been raped as a child, Fox reported. “What this article did was tell me that I’m not aloud [sic] to ask for help… Because I am a WHITE woman… So when I read this article… you do understand what that does to me, right? It kills me…”
“‘I literally cry’…. While we literally die,” replied the woman identified as Sai Grundy, using the same profile photo the Boston University professor used on tweets she acknowledged last week, Fox News reported. “[T]ry this article. A white woman explaining this issue to other white women… who manages NOT to cry while doing it!” Ms. Grundy wrote.
Ms. Chamberlin responded: “No really. I got it. You can take your claws out, thanks.”
To which Ms. Grundy exploded: “THIS IS THE [expletive] I AM TALKING ABOUT. WHY DO YOU GET TO PLAY THE VICTIM EVERY TIME PEOPLE OF COLOR AND OUR ALLIES WANT TO POINT OUT RACISM. my CLAWS?? Do you see how you just took an issue that WASNT about you, MADE it about you, and NOW want to play the victim when I take the time to explain to you some [expletive] that is literally $82,000 below my pay grade? And then you promote your #whitegirltears like that’s some badge you get to wear… YOU BENEFIT FROM RACISM. WE’RE EXPLAINING THAT TO YOU and you’re vilifying my act of intellectual altruism by saying i stuck my “claws” into you?”
The university should fire her, at least law down some discipline, that's no way for a sociology professor to behave. It sets a bad example to the students.
The professor had no business in that girl's Facebook comment section. I understand she was trying to get her point across but she did it in such an unprofessional manner
it's so strange how this kind of studying can lead people to totally lose grip on reality and appropriate behavior. i wonder why it makes people so irrational sometimes

She already got in trouble with her twitter last week and had to apologize now this is a lot worse taunting a rape victim. Plus the fact she thinks $82,000 is something to brag about.
