During a 2018 panel hosted by Harvard's Carr-Ryan Center for Human Rights, three faculty members praised a presenter after he made his case for potential armed left-wing political violence.  Harvard has gone too far left.

     The Ivy League school hosted a panel called "You Don't Stand Around and Let People Get Hurt: Antifascism After Charlottesville." The panel's star guest was Professor Dwayne Dixon of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, who was placed on administrative leave Monday after reports of his armed left-wing activism as a member of the far-left gun club Redneck Revolt.

     Video of the event was quickly removed from the Carr-Ryan Center's YouTube page after Dixon was placed on leave by the UNC administration.  The three Harvard academics who participated in the panel were Education Professor Timothy McCarthy, Professor of American History and African American Studies Vincent Brown and American History Professor Lisa McGirr. Brown introduced Dixon.

     "Many of you are aware of the ongoing vigorous debate over whether it's OK to punch a Nazi. I personally happen to believe that the ethical question was settled by WWII and Raiders of the Lost Ark," he said in his introduction.  "All four of [the panel members] are committed to study, interpretation and reasoned debate, but are well aware that deliberation might have distinct limits in the face of opponents who would prefer to see us eliminated," he continued. 

     Dixon then spoke for about 30 minutes, portraying Redneck Revolt as heroes fighting back against neo-Nazis, White supremacists and fascists during the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.
