A lawsuit that alleges \u201cpervasive anti-religious discrimination\u201d against Jewish professors at Kingsborough Community College can continue following a recent court ruling.<\/p>\n
The lawsuit comes from five professors at a City University of New York campus, four of whom were recently placed under investigation by CUNY for alleged “‘discrimination’ against BDS and radical Islamist antisemitic activists.”<\/p>\n
But Judge Gina Abadi\u2019s Aug. 23 ruling<\/a> allows the lawsuit alleging antisemitism against CUNY, a labor union and a handful of professors to proceed.<\/p>\n \u201cS.A.F.E. CUNY stands with the long-suffering Observant and Zionist Jewish Kingsborough Community College professors who have endured endless harassment at what is one of CUNY\u2019s darkest hotbeds of antisemitism,\u201d the group wrote in a statement to The College Fix. <\/em>\u201cWe are extremely grateful that Judge Abadi\u2019s meticulous and thorough 45-page opinion saw through the weak arguments for dismissal made by CUNY and the PSC-CUNY union.”<\/p>\n CUNY and the labor union denied the allegations and claims of harboring a hostile work environment in their motion to dismiss.<\/p>\n S.A.F.E. CUNY’s co-founder Professor Jeffrey Lax, a plaintiff in the lawsuit, recently confirmed<\/a> via X he is one of the four professor under investigation for alleged discrimination against radical Islamists and those who support the boycott, divestment and sanctions movement.<\/p>\n For those asking.

You can absolutely run with what little detail we were able to give and that these investigations are happening at CUNY. <\/p>\n We can give also give you two more details, which is\u2026<\/p>\n — SAFE CUNY (@SAFECUNY) August 6, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
