I can respect that. But in the article says she gave a couple minutes warning for anyone who might get offended to leave

I think she tried to keep her integrity as a teacher

Some other student could complain that she wasn’t doing a good job for withholding relevant historical info and images and knowledge on a the subject in a paid course that otherwise would be shown say if it was a class on Christianity for example

People could protest both sides :manny:

For example, I took a class on Christianity in college and the teacher was Gay.... I didn’t care. He even showed us “life of Brian” one day and had the class laughing along with it :martin:

No protests but it was kinda a stupid thing to do but now I know the movie exists :banderas:

So she tried to be slick with a technicality. Naw, don’t try and pull that bullshyt while I’m enrolled in your course.

I hate all abrahamic religions so you’re not telling me anything new.

she was an islamic art studies professor showing paintings, THEY themselves painted in the past :gucci:

She was an art history teacher apparently.

If she was teaching a class specifically on Islamic Art, showing historical depictions of Mohammed would be fair game. Even then it's only responsible to have a disclaimer to all students that plan to take the course, that potentially upsetting images would be shown.

But if you're just teaching Art History 201, the subject is long and wide enough (going back thousands of years, hundreds of cultures) that to find time to show a depiction of Mohammed... You're just looking for attention. And she got some.

She could have done the following instead:

1. Include links to depictions of Mohammed in supplementary material
2. Just speak on it
3. Gotten tenure first.

But she didn't. Dumb ass.

If you think about it, this is kinda like the Kyrie situation.

She didn’t paint the painting. :jbhmm:

She’s not the “idolatrous” painter.

How was he allowed to make and get famous for the painting to begin with.

Also it’s what she’s actually paid to show/talk about

It’s like saying a bookstore gets banned for selling Hitlers manifesto because Jews are offended

No, it’s history and he’s a figure people learn about.

And it sells :youngsabo:

Not mentioning Muhammad artwork during an Islamic art class wouldn’t make sense especially considering art is meant to be seen and critiqued

It defeats the entire purpose

Now imagine not allowing other students to take a paid course because Muslims are offended

Nobody wins :snoop:
