Canuck writer interviews Professor Ward Churchill with predictable results
Excerpt:
"The only people upset are in fact those who would be encompassed within my meaning of the term little Eichmanns," [Churchill] says. "I'm not getting it from communities of colour. I'm not getting it from poor people."Well, yes, Ward, if your analysis is based on fraudulent scholarship, it discredits quite handily.
With all of the focus on his dismissal from university, there is a risk that people aren't listening to what he has to say about racism and imperialism, and clearly that's what frustrates him most.
"If they can discredit my scholarship they can discredit my analysis, and if they can discredit my analysis they can reinforce the status quo," he fumes.
Some detractors went as far as questioning his Native American heritage. And although there were rumblings that Karl Rove had a direct hand in his targeting, Churchill, who has written extensively about the government's illegal and corrupt Counterintelligence Program (Cointelpro) against civil rights era activists, shrugs them off....People actually questioned his Native American heritage? We're shocked. Well, in any case, the article also features a list of the places in Canuckistan Churchill will be lout-shouting:
"Cointelpro has been assimilated into the media to the point that you don't actually need intelligence agencies' involvement most of the time," he says.
