RE: Racist backlash to city’s racist vaccination effort condemned. Headline (almost!) in today’s Hamilton Spectator.
Ameil Joseph would like to have me arrested. I spotted Joseph as a racy-racist con man, and wasn’t afraid to say so in writing. I noticed that Joseph personally profits from the race industry, and therefore has a vested interest in stoking racial antagonisms. Joseph is is an associate professor of social work at McMaster University, and he wouldn’t have this job but for the fact that he’s black. My observation of these and other facts Joseph believes “should be documented as a hate incident in Hamilton because that’s exactly what it is.”
Since the new police chief is supposed to re-direct the force to the policing of hate and thought crimes like in the U.K., Joseph puts a target on me. In London the other day, a Christian pastor was arrested for the hate crime of saying that marriage was between a man and a woman. A member of the public reported him for making homophobic remarks. Catholics, take note; you’re next.
A Polish immigrant can arrange for a
vaccination himself, but the members of BIPOC community have to rely on Dr.
Joseph to get theirs. It’s racist to
observe that, and it’s racist to observe the personal interest of Dr. Joseph in
that arrangement. And racist people need
to be subjected to lawfare and arrest.
-30-.
In case you doubt me concerning Dr. Joseph’s unseriousness as an academic, I offer you his Research Interests and Academic background below. His interest in critical race theory and other weird progressive obsessions are dead giveaways.
Research & Supervisory Interests
I am interested in working with
contributions from the perspectives of critical mental health, postcolonial
theory, critical race theory, and critical disability studies, to study the
historical production of ideas about difference, normalcy, sexuality, eugenics,
race, ability and mental “illness” as they cohere, diverge, interdepend and
perform within policy, law and practice. My projects have looked at issues of
social justice, violence, ethics, confluence, historiography and social work
using complimentary theoretical and methodological frameworks to engage
respectfully with the complexities of our human condition. I come to this work
with over a decade of experience in the mental health field, in supportive
housing, settlement, crisis respite, forensic assertive community treatment,
community-based early intervention, and governance settings.
