The Heroism of Amy Wax

Posted on | December 14, 2024 | 2 Comments

“A man who is not willing to be slandered by the Left is of no use to the Right. It goes without saying, and can be demonstrated from history, that every successful proponent of the conservative cause becomes a target of the Left’s character assassins.”
Robert Stacy McCain, “First They Came for Mel Bradford”

Meetings of the Mencken Club are so secretive that attendees usually never mention their attendance, lest it make them targets of “cancelation.” You can’t post about this gathering of Thought Criminals on Facebook, because if the the Left finds out where the meeting is being hosted, there will certainly be protests and quite probably vandalism, and good luck booking a hotel ballroom in such a situation.

So I can’t tell you where I had the pleasure of meeting University of Pennsylvania Law Professor Amy Wax over a cup of coffee. She is a petite dynamo of a woman, full of energy, and photos don’t do her justice. Beyond that, I invoke my Miranda “right to remain silent.”

Professor Wax has no intention of remaining silent:

Amy Wax, the tenured law professor who was disciplined by the University of Pennsylvania for making controversial remarks about race and gender, told Penn on Thursday that she will sue the university for race discrimination if it does not drop the sanctions against her, according to a letter from Wax’s lawyers obtained by the Washington Free Beacon. It’s the latest salvo in a nearly three-year-long battle between Wax and the Ivy League school, which announced in September that it was suspending her at half-pay for one year.
Penn has until December 19 to “conclusively disavow” those penalties. “Should you fail to do so,” the letter states, “Professor Wax will file suit against the University.”
Because Penn promises its professors academic freedom, the letter argues that the school breached its contract with Wax by punishing her for protected speech. It notes that Penn took no action against professors who spewed anti-Semitic bile after the October 7 attacks. And it uses Penn’s double standard to make a creative legal argument: By punishing speech that offended racial minorities — but not speech that offended Jews — the university engaged in unlawful race discrimination when it singled Wax out for punishment, the letter says.
“The University’s speech policies … transparently discriminate on the basis of race, including most notably the race of the subject of the speech at issue,” the letter reads. “As such, they violate federal law’s various prohibitions against race-based discrimination.” . . .

You can read the whole thing and see if you can find anywhere that Professor Wax said anything untrue. See, that’s the way it is in 21st-century academia — you can tell any lie, as long as it’s a politically correct lie, but there are some truths that no one is permitted to mention, and that’s why Professor Wax got punished. She has refused to budge an inch and now, thanks to Penn’s tolerance for Jew-hating pro-Hamas protesters, she’s got a solid legal case against the administration.

As for where I met her, well, I can’t tell you, because the first rule of Mencken Club is, nobody talks about Mencken Club.
