A 456-mile journey of healing, remembrance and solidarity
Will the University of Colorado be forced to rehire former professor Ward Churchill? Here’s a video that captures some of the controversy surrounding Churchill whose self-proclaimed identity as a Cherokee has been causing him much grief. This You Tube video shows Churchill losing control. Also, check back shortly for more information on the brief filed by CU stating why they shouldn’t have to rehire Churchill. Remember, a jury voted to give him $1 in nominal damages? And, remember, his attorney David Lane suggested he should be given as much as $25 million?
For those of you just checking in, Churchill was fired by CU after writing a controversial essay about the victims who died in the World Trade Center terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
