Harvard Law School Professor Emeritus Alan Dershowitz slammed diversity, equity, and inclusion programs at American universities, arguing that they breed antisemitism.

After the Oct. 7 attacks on Israel by the terrorist group Hamas, pro-Palestinian protests have erupted across college campuses. Some protest groups have even been suspended by universities.

Dershowitz further criticized Harvard President Claudine Gay for her remarks during a House hearing on antisemitism during which, Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., questioned Gay, asking, “[a]t Harvard, does calling for the genocide of Jews violate Harvard’s rules of bullying and harassment?”

Gay responded, saying, “depending on the context,” that it could violate policies and “antisemitic speech, when it crosses into conduct that amounts to bullying, harassment, intimidation — that is actionable conduct and we do take action.”
