UCLA Prof. Who Refused To Postpone Exams For Black Students Is Suspended
“Remember that MLK famously said that people should not be evaluated based on the ‘color of their skin.”

A UCLA Professor has been placed on leave after he rejected requests to allow black students to take final exams at a later date as a response to the death of George Floyd and black lives matter protests.
Accounting lecturer Gordon Klein responded to the requests by noting “Remember that MLK famously said that people should not be evaluated based on the ‘color of their skin. Do you think that your request would run afoul of MLK’s admonition?”
“Thanks for your suggestion in your email below that I give black students special treatment, given the tragedy in Minnesota,” Klein, who has been at UCLA for 39 years, wrote in an email to students.
“Do you know the names of the classmates that are black? How can I identify them since we’ve been having online classes only? Are there any students that may be of mixed parentage, such as half black-half Asian? What do you suggest I do with respect to them? A full concession or just half?” he responded, before quoting MLK.
UCLA has given in to the mob. They’ve reassigned Professor Gordon Klein’s classes and put him on leave because he denied a request that he grade Black students more favorably than other students. The student who requested this isn’t even Black. Insanity. https://t.co/77QwfsJ1n8

In response, more than 20,000 people have signed a petition that demands UCLA officials fire Klein.
The petition suggests that Klein’s email violates UCLA’s “holistic” and “inclusive” values.
“We ask for your support now in holding Professor Klein to the same ethical standards he claims to be essential to a holistic and inclusive educational experience, which is what he owes to his students as an educational leader,” it reads.
“We, the students, refuse to support Gordon Klein any further and demand to see his employment terminated as soon as possible.” it adds.
The Free Beacon reports that Klein is now under police protection after threats of violence.
A counter petition has been set up to defend Klein, and has received almost double the signatures the one against him has:
So @UCLA placed Gordon Klein on leave, pending termination, for not giving non-white students a different grading criteria for his class. If you're tired of the nonsense, and think dude should get brought back to his job, then sign this petition: https://t.co/vYQRboP8k1 pic.twitter.com/Df7uogLwgW

The incident is not an isolated one, with reports from elsewhere in the country that black students are demanding they be given leniency or just better grades in light of current events.

Amazon Redesigns Logo to Look Less Like Hitler after Complaints
App image vaguely resembled dictator’s mustache.

Amazon was forced to redesign a new logo for its app after Twitter users claimed that the image resembled Adolf Hitler.
Yes, really.
The newly re-worked app logo, which was released in January, featured a cardboard box design with a strip of blue tape on it.
After the launch, Twitter users complained that the image reminded them of the toothbrush mustache worn by the Nazi dictator.
My parents use Amazon nearly every day. They’re going to be lost for the next few days. When they ask where Amazon’s gone, I’ll tell them to look for the cardboard Hitler… https://t.co/u1YcJUBNSN

“My parents use Amazon nearly every day,” said Sam Hutchings. “They’re going to be lost for the next few days. When they ask where Amazon’s gone, I’ll tell them to look for the cardboard Hitler…”
Yesterday, people began to notice that the design had been changed, with the blue tape now looking more like a post-it note.
lmao I completely missed that amazon quietly tweaked its new icon to make it look… less like hitler pic.twitter.com/Jh8UC8Yg3u

Amazon reportedly made the change back on February 22nd.
The company didn’t acknowledge that it changed the logo due to complaints about it supposedly resembling Hitler, although it seems very likely.
In a vague statement provided to TODAY, the company said, “Amazon is always exploring new ways to delight our customers. We designed the new icon to spark anticipation, excitement, and joy when customers start their shopping journey on their phone, just as they do when they see our boxes on their door step.”

Video: Candace Owens Slams Dems’ “Unbelievably Offensive” Equality Act
“They believe in sameness. Making everybody a carbon copy of the others.”

Appearing on Tucker Carlson Tonight, author and commentator Candace Owens tore into the Democrats’ ‘Equality Act’, calling it “unbelievably offensive” and “a terrifying agenda that eliminates women.”
The bill, which passed the House last week outlines a framework for dismissing biological differences between men and women.
“I find this to be unbelievably offensive: the idea there is nothing different between men and women,” Owens urged, adding that Democrats “don’t know what equality is. They don’t know what equality means.”
“What they are saying right now is that, LeBron James, when he was at high school, with all his physical prowess, should have been able to say: ‘I no longer identify as a man, I identify as a woman,’ and he should have been allowed to compete against every other woman, and that would have been deemed equal,” Owens emphasised.
“They believe in sameness. Making everybody a carbon copy of the others,” Owens declared, adding “They hate the idea between male, female, girl, boy.”
The best-selling author also said she has been called “a bigot, a hateful individual, a transphobe” for her views, noting that “the left likes to use these pejoratives when you are just speaking common sense.”
Owens comments echo those of President Trump who told the CPAC conference that the ‘integrity’ of women’s sports is under threat from trans athletes, prompting frothing backlash from leftists.

Jewish Family Kicked Off Flight Over Maskless Baby
Passengers claim Frontier Airline staff did celebratory high-fives.

A Hasidic Jewish family says they were kicked off a flight because they refused to make their 18-month-old baby wear a mask, while passengers claimed Frontier Airlines staff performed celebratory high-fives after the incident.
A video of the incident shows the family walking off the plane as other passengers complain, “This is Nazi Germany! “and, “This is gonna go all over the news!”
Despite the policy being that children aged under 2 do not have to wear masks, the Orthodox Jewish Public Affairs Council (OJPAC) says the family were told “to get off because their 18-month-old had no mask.”
Disturbing incident the last hour on a @FlyFrontier flight as staff told a Hasidic couple to get off because their 18 month old had no mask. Applause is heard as the couple started leaving. Travels say on camera that the applause came from staff who also cheered that “we did it.” pic.twitter.com/rA2JQmI1tU
— OJPAC (@OJPAC) March 1, 2021
After the other passengers started to bitterly complain about the treatment of the family, they too were removed from the plane and the flight was cancelled.
Eyewitnesses said the airlines staff were seen congratulating and “high-fiving each other,” while another allegedly stated, “A job well done to those Jews.”
EYEWITNESS VIDEO! Multiple people say on the record in this video that as the Hasidic couple started leaving the airplane, @FlyFrontier staff applauded, exchanged high fives and one allegedly said “a job well done to those Jews.” Att @PeteButtigieg @FAANews @SenatorCantwell pic.twitter.com/m1Azjw5Hbx

However, Frontier Airlines put out a statement claiming that the family was removed because adults were refusing to wear masks.
“Members of a large group, including adults, refused to wear masks as flight 2878 was preparing for departure from MIA-LGA. Repeated requests to comply with federal law necessitated their removal from the flight,” the airline declared, adding, “The issue did not stem from a child under 2.”
This claim is contradicted by footage showing the adults wearing masks as they leave the plane as well as testimony from passengers, one of whom asserted, “No adult refused to wear a mask.”
Hi @FlyFrontier I was on the plane.
This is simply not true.
No adult refused to wear a mask.
The only person w/o a mask was a 18 month old.
I'm still horrified how you handled it.We're sleeping tonight in MIA. At least thanks for rebooking us for tomorrow morning on JetBlue

“The only person w/o a mask was a 18 month old. I’m still horrified how you handled it,” they tweeted.
Political commenter Yossi Gestetner also pointed out the absurdity of masks on planes when people remove them for long periods of time when eating or drinking.
“The airplane was loaded corner to corner with ZERO distancing, and for most of the flight many passengers would anyway not wear masks due to eating,” said Gestetner. “So it’s odd that you chose to cancel a flight over an alleged mask issue (not backed by video and disputed by eyewitnesses).”
