A University of Pennsylvania professor drew ridicule online for suggesting racism was at play in how the police handled the Uvalde, Texas shooting.
University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) professor and MSNBC contributor Anthea Butler suggested that Texas police didn’t respond sooner to the shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde because they “didn’t give a damn” about a school filled with mostly “brown kids.”
In a shockingly anti-white and anti-Christian dialogue, Salon staff writer Chauncey DeVega sat with University of Pennsylvania religious studies professor Anthea Butler, referring to “the Republican fascist movement” as “objectively evil,” hoping that “people of color” die out in the battle against “multiracial democracy,” while accusing “white Christians” of embracing lies, terrorism, white supremacy and fascism.
Author Anthea Butler said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” that evangelicals did not follow Christian scripture. Instead, she said they followed the Republican Party.
