The British media helped a literal Nazi lynch a Black man.

Jason Arday was hounded by the British media to death.

188 articles in 9 days.
249 articles in 22 days.

Over plagiarism controversy.

Nathan Cofnas—a sacked Cambridge race-theorist—started the allegations.

As someone who has experienced a smear campaign, I can tell you with full certainty that it can take you into total darkness.

They forget they are dealing with a human being. They forget it is someone's entire life they are tearing apart.

This is what sinister journalism does.
Shame on the British media.

Nathan Cofnas is the man behind the Jason Arday story. Here’s who he actually is.

In February 2024, Cofnas wrote a blog post claiming that under a “meritocracy,” Black people would “disappear from almost all high-profile positions outside of sports and entertainment.” He called racial equality “based on lies.”

Cambridge’s Emmanuel College cut ties with him over it. The Leverhulme Trust, which funded his research, disavowed him and opened its own investigation.

He sued Emmanuel College for discrimination. He lost. Cambridge’s own disciplinary body dismissed all 58 complaints against him, ruling it fell under free speech protections.

He then moved to Ghent University in Belgium. Over 300 staff and students there protested his hiring, questioning whether his views were compatible with the university’s ethics code.

This is the man who spent months going through a Black professor’s PhD thesis and personal history, then published it on Substack. That’s what triggered Cambridge’s investigation into Jason Arday.

This context is missing from nearly all the coverage. A self-described “race realist,” who argued Black professors would basically disappear under merit alone, is the one who decided which Black professor deserved scrutiny.

Black professors: under 1% of the UK total.
Black academics reaching professor level: 3.8%.

This isn’t the first case. It won’t be the last.

Go under the original post and see how overt racism works.

I remember asking assistant coach Mo Cheeks, what’s harder to do? Workout after practice or before?? I only asked cuz by time I would get to the gym, Russ was already done in the morning and I usually got mine in after practice. Mo like, “coming in before practice is probably harder”…since then, it’s been my routine….a lot of people looked at the emotions on the court and thought Russ was loud, nah to me, he was quiet and methodical. He lead by example and once the lights were bright, he let everything out and experienced pure freedom. It was inspiring as his teammate and everywhere I went, I seen it inspire people from all walks of life, crazy thing is, he didn’t say much, he just showed up. For 18 years. This basketball life is sacred to us as professionals, what we put into that court means everything. Some of us wish we could go back and do things with a little more intent and some can just wipe their hands and be satisfied with the time spent. Who u gonna be? We know what zero was on…keep inspiring in the next phase of life champ. I don’t care what happens, can’t erase what it was…The first YNs, finals run in our early 20s, all star games, seeing each other get injured and bounce back, the bus rides, plane rides, card games, jokes and arguments, the whole thing, memorable!! …to the whole Westbrook family, Nina, the kids, mama Westbrook, big Russ, Ray, Donnell, everybody from luezinger high and ucla and many more that I’m forgettin, much love and Congratulations on a iconic career.

Streamer HMBLZAYY has officially completed his walk from Philadelphia to California after 124 days.

- He walked 3,000 miles and raised nearly $200,000 for charity.

“3000 miles on foot through the desert, through the mountains, through the sundown towns. Get hit by two cars. Anything is possible. God used me as a vessel to show the world, to show the youth that anything is possible. When they laugh at you, when they tell you that you can't do something, you gotta believe in yourself. Everything that we went through, everything that we went through to lead to this moment, four months on a road, sacrificing day in, day out. Every single thing that happened. But I want you to know that anything is possible. The kids that's watching, anything you want to do, you could do it. The greatness is the God in you. The greatness is the God in the spirit of God that's in you.”
