Change of heart

Apparently I finally broke down and signed the petition to Free, er, Reinstate Ward Churchill. There I am at #448: "John Martin. Professor Churchill speaks truth to power."

He does.

Update: Snideleigh Whiplash joins us:

I'd like to add my plea to that of the esteemed Dr. Snugglesworth; Please reinstate Mr. Churchill. Snideleigh Whiplash, PhD - Chair, Department of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgendered Studies - Faber College.

More humorously, Lillian Valenzuela opines:

Ward Churchill's contributions to revealing the true imperial history of this country in the context of Indian history far outweigh any minor footnote errors. He is a valuable and effective teacher who induces students to examine the operating moral values of themselves and their country. The integrity of honest scholarship at CU depends on his full reinstatement.
