Over 100 Harvard University faculty members have signed an open letter responding to the school's new "Combating Antisemitism" initiative.
The November 13 letter was addressed to Harvard University President Claudine Gray and questioned the school's commitment to free speech and expression.
The faculty said they were "astonished" by pressure from donors, alumni and members of the campus community to "silence" faculty, students and staff critical of actions undertaken by Israel against Hamas.
"It is important to acknowledge the patronizing tone and format of much of the criticism you have received as well as the outright racism contained in some of it," the letter stated. "We were nevertheless profoundly dismayed by your November 9 message entitled 'Combating Antisemitism.'"
