[Stop Racism in Academia @StopRacismAcade]

After the Buffalo massacre, we ask @VUBrussel, @RoyalHolloway, @ElsevierConnect and @MDPIOpenAccess to stop spreading Woodley of Menie’s racist and eugenist articles. We call on the scientific community to join us and sign the statement: https://t.co/LTST1kp1gt

Woodley’s article cited by Buffalo shooter is still not retracted by @ElsevierConnect.
@RoyalHolloway does not recognise Woodley's affiliation in the article and omits its responsibility to formally ask for the paper’s retraction.
We urge Elsevier and Royal Holloway to act now!

A British researcher, affiliated with a Belgian university, wrote pseudoscientific theories to justify racism. Only after his work cited by the gunman who killed 10 Black people in a racist attack in Buffalo did the school suspend the relationship. https://t.co/lope7MorRF

We call @RoyalHolloway, @ElsevierConnect and @MDPIOpenAccess for appropriate and immediate action to retract and remove his articles

The article further reveals that Woodley has been funded by the far-right Unz Foundation, which seemingly uses Woodley’s university affiliations to legitimate and spread white supremacism through main editorials https://t.co/6hatn9y9mZ

5. We ask @ElsevierConnect to close the journal Intelligence, which includes Woodley of Menie, Yr as a member of its editorial board, and in which eugenist and racist articles either by him or other authors are frequent.
