Duke rebuke: Professor defiant after school condemns racially charged
remarks
A Duke University professor was defiant after the school last week condemned
his "noxious" and "offensive" words in a letter published in The New York
Times in which he compared African-Americans unfavorably to Asian-Americans.
The school's rebuke came after a student backlash against Political Science
Professor Jerry Hough, 80, whose May 9 letter sought to address racism and
the Baltimore riots. Hough said African-Americans don't try to integrate
into society, while Asians “worked doubly hard” to overcome racism instead
of blaming it.
“Virtually every black has a strange new name that symbolizes their lack of
desire for integration.”
- Duke University Prof. Jerry Hough
“Every Asian student has a very simple old American first name that
symbolizes their desire for integration,” he wrote on May 10. “Virtually
every black has a strange new name that symbolizes their lack of desire for
integration.”
Duke students and faculty blasted Hough last week, and the school told The
News & Observer of Raleigh that he was placed on leave and that 2016 will be
his last year at the school.
“The comments were noxious, offensive, and have no place in civil discourse
,” said Duke spokesman Michael Schoenfeld. “Duke University has a deeply
held commitment to inclusiveness grounded in respect for all, and we
encourage our community to speak out when they feel that those ideals are
challenged or undermined, as they were in this case.”
But Hough, in an e-mail to an ABC affiliate, said political correctness is
getting in the way of thoughtful and frank debate.
“I am strongly against the obsession with ‘sensitivity,'" Hough wrote. "
The more we have emphasized sensitivity in recent years, the worse race
relations have become. I think that is not an accident. I know that the 60
years since the Montgomery bus boycott is a long time, and things must be
changed. The Japanese and other Asians did not obsess with the concentration
camps and the fact they were linked with blacks as ‘colored.’"
Hough even played the "Coach K" card, referencing beloved and legendary Duke
basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski in his email.
"Coach K did not obsess with all the Polish jokes about Polish stupidity,"
Hough wrote. "He pushed ahead and achieved. And by his achievement and
visibility, he has played a huge role in destroying stereotypes about Poles.
Many blacks have done that too, but no one says they have done as well on
the average as the Asians.”
Citing privacy, the university would not comment on the professor’s future
at the school, the station reported. University officials say Hough has been
on a standard academic leave for the 2014-15 school year. | G****e

当然，也是杜克大学的软弱。可以参照我密曾经的言论，有个女教授攻击共和党，共和
党要求学校解雇她，学校发表声明说，这是教授个人的言论自由，不能代表学校的观点
，但是学校需要支持言论自由。如此，把争论解决了。这是美国宪法第一修正案的魅力
所在。
再者，最近那个搞穆斯林穆罕默德漫画事情，那个女的也是很勇敢，比起纽约时报和其
他新闻媒体，实在是太勇敢了。言论自由不是保护你同意的言论的自由，而是你不同意
的也是自由，这是精髓所在。
但是，有一点不同的是，不能对具体个人的人身攻击。这其中的边界很含糊。 |
