This begs the question, “why are people more inclined to give women who are alleged sexual abusers the benefit of the doubt?”
Reed College isn’t an anomaly. In the past, students at other institutions have objected to studying the scholarship of white men, dead or alive.
In other words, is there any value in reliving these issues, something that inevitably comes with speaking out?
That is why I’m sharing my story: so the U.S. and other governments can do more to protect the vulnerable youth of Muslim backgrounds whose parents abuse them in the name of religion and culture.
We need to acknowledge that sexual misconduct thrives in academia. And sometimes, it’s institutionally sanctioned.
I’m just interrogating the usefulness of allyship as a framework to understanding oppression because the word “individual” is at the heart of solidarity.

To me, patriotism isn’t much different from a religion. It’s a belief in a less nebulous higher power, one that must similarly go unquestioned.
Put differently, racism on college campuses is inextricably linked to the severe lack of meaningful dialogue about race-related issues in primary and secondary education.
CVE should focus on the integration and success of Muslim communities rather than their ability to identify terrorists.
White supremacist claims of “subjugation” and “victimhood” are specious, silly and narcissistic.
