Animated by our conviction that the Bible is the infallible Word of God, sufficient as our Human Operational Manual, we apply the methods of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the most consequential Black Protestant of all time. Direct action still purges and cleanses, making crooked ways straight.
On September 24, a federal court in Raleigh sanctioned the Defendants' side in the long-running race-discrimination lawsuit Amos Jones v. Campbell University et al. That university's Board of Trustees remains under a public ultimatum laid down by Jones to desegregate its law school's tenured faculty by elevating a Black woman for the first time in the history of the formerly segregated white-Baptist Southern university. The trustees are now totally pressured into acting, their covers blown by TWO federal discrimination lawsuits this year out of the law school, led by white Rich Leonard as dean. A black male was called a monkey in the dean's suite, and Attorney Gina Calabro's Ogletree Deakins team defended it in open federal court after a two-year legal fight. A Wake Forest Law dean prepared an expert report. Thomas Farr's divisive methods continue to represent Campbell University.
This white-Texan man of God who led the Harvard Law School Christian Fellowship more than fifteen years ago has had his private e-mail dragged into federal court recently, after his e-mailing Black Amos Jones -- a onetime faculty colleague -- and encouraging Jones's national legal victories for minority victims. Thomas Farr has introduced Professor Osborn's e-mail invoking God Almighty and the saving grace of Jesus Christ as Professor Jones waged war on oppression before the Third Circuit -- and won 3-0 in 2016. (Professor Osborn was reared in the Church of Christ, a conservative branch of the Restoration Movement but had met with Professor Jones in 2004 to learn about "race and the churches.")
Thomas Farr has introduced this teen-ager's March 2019 Tweet to Amos Jones as part of Farr's legal defense in the long-running race discrimination lawsuit after her father -- with others -- was sued for not processing Professor Jones's tenure application at the unknown law school in Raleigh while Professor Jones was on leave as Academic Visitor to the Faculty of Law at the University of Oxford in Fall 2015 and other wrongs. Meanwhile, two white women Assistant Professors were promoted to Associate Professor along with Professor Jones, even though they had not filed applications for promotion to Associate Professor. Evidently, for every Black man who earns a promotion by application (Amos Jones), two white women must be given the promotion regardless of non-application. A new statement produced by Campbell prepared in 2017 by Col. William Woodruff (a retired tenured Professor of Law at Campbell) asserts that granting promotions without application while others apply would amount to discrimination. We agree with Col. Woodruff.
How has N.C. Secretary of State Elaine Marshall -- a Campbell University trustee -- voted on this?
