Appeal to the Federal Office for Civil Rights, Asking The OCR to Open an Investigation at Yale

Below please find the primary text of my appeal to the Federal Office for Civil Rights, asking them to open an investigation into Yale University’s gross violations of civil rights law during the Living or Napping While Black Hate Crime Hoax:

The OCR’s letter dismissing the complaint only indicates that I am alleging that University Officials harassed me and retaliated against me on the basis of race, sex, disability, and age, AFTER May 8^th, 2018. This is incorrect. I am alleging that University Officials and the Campus Police harassed me and retaliated against me on the basis of race, sex, disability, and age, BETWEEN AND ON the dates of February 24^th, 2018, and May 8^th, 2018.

I am explicitly alleging that University Officials and the Yale Campus Police participated in the harassment and retaliation against me on and between these dates, and that University Officials and the Campus Police assisted my attackers, Lolade Siyonbola and Jean Louis Reneson, and others, in harassing me and retaliating against me on the basis of race, sex, disability, and age between and on these dates.

This is made clear in the illegal video recording of me, made on May 8^th, 2018, which was widely distributed around the world to shame me for my mental health disabilty, when my attacker, Lolade Siyonbola, repeatedly states that I’m psychotic and crazy and that I should be put in a mental institution, and repeatedly states that Yale knows that I’m psychotic and crazy and that I should be put in a mental institution. I was being targeted as the victim of harassment and retaliation on the basis of my mental health disability by both my student and Resident Coordinator attackers AND University Officials AND the Campus Police. The illegal video recording of me makes more than clear that my attacker was intimately familiar with who I was. She knew all of these personal details of my life, even though she had never met me, because Yale was illegally feeding her my personal information, including my mental health history, a fact which she also makes clear in the illegally recorded and distributed video. Additionally, Provost Stephanie Spangler accidentally revealed to me when I met with her in March & April, 2018, that Yale was illegally feeding my personal information to my attackers, including my name and my mental health history.

I am alleging that, as told to me by Housing Director George Longyear on March 2^nd, 2018, Yale Deans, including Grad School Dean Lynn Cooley and Grad School Diversity Dean Michelle Nearon, and others, harassed and retaliated against me on the basis of race, sex, disability, and age, between the dates of February 24^th, and March 2^nd, 2018, and that this harassment and retaliation continued thereafter and continues to this day.

By March 2^nd, 2018, I had been fully exonerated by the Housing Managers for the February 24^th, 2018 incident. The Housing Managers told me that not only had I done absolutely nothing wrong, but that I was the only person involved who had done nothing wrong. Moreover, I was the person who was terrorized in my isolated dorm room on the evening of February 24^th, 2018. The Deans who harassed and retaliated against me on the basis of race, sex, disability, and age thereafter knew that I was entirely innocent of racial harassment. They were not harassing me and retaliating against me, because they believed that I had been accused of or had perpetrated racial harassment. They were harassing me and retaliating against me on the basis of race, sex, disability, and age. This harassment and retaliation took the form of them determining that I should participate in a town hall, during which I was supposed to publicly declare myself a racist, as well as undergo implicit bias training. This harassment and retaliation also took the form of them spreading across campus that I was guilty of racial harassment, as was told me by the Housing Director, when he told me that the allegations against me were “going around” and “gaining traction,” including by a group of Deans. I experienced walking across campus on multiple occasions and overhearing myself being discussed as a racist who should be kicked off campus and thrown out of school. I am alleging that these Deans desired to publicly brand me a racist to destroy my lifelong career as a human and civil rights licensed attorney activist to harass and retaliate against me on the basis of race, sex, disability, and age.

I am alleging that when Grad School Diversity Dean Michelle Nearon told me, via email, that not only did she have no interest in addressing the fact that I had been and was still being harassed and stalked on campus on the basis of race, disability, sex, and age, but also that if I had any concerns for my personal safety on campus that I should move out of my home and leave campus, that this was harassment and retaliation against me on the basis of race, disability, sex, and age. I told Dean Nearon as much via email. I am alleging that after I threatened to take civil legal action to protect my rights and interests, Dean Michelle Nearon’s refusal to meet with me on the record and refusal to work with me in writing and refusal to help me restore my good name and reputation on campus, while I was being defamed across campus as guilty of racial harassment, was harassment and retaliation against me on the basis of race, disability, sex, and age. I told Dean Nearon as much via email.

I am alleging that the Administration’s and the Campus Police’s refusals to do anything to protect me and to make me safe in my isolated dorm room and on campus BETWEEN February 24^th, 2018, and May 8^th, 2018, was harassment and retaliation on the basis of race, sex, disability, and age. They knew who my attackers were, and they not only did nothing to stop them, but they also assisted my attackers in harassing me and retaliating against me on the basis of race, sex, disability, and age.

Yale’s recent farcical Title VI Review Report, which further defames me and is a further instance of retaliation and harassment against me on the basis of race, sex, disability, and age does clarify the follow: “Race-based D&H falls under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 . . . universities receiving federal funds cannot discriminate against individuals on the basis of race, color or national origin, either directly or indirectly.” This means that the Administration’s and the Campus Police’s outright refusals to do anything about the harassment and stalking that I was enduring in my dorm room in on campus housing and as I walked across campus was itself harassment and retaliation on the basis of race, sex, disability, and age.

I am alleging that after I threatened to take civil legal action to protect my rights and interests, Yale General Counsel Attorney Caroline Hendel’s refusal to help me in any way, and her insistence that I deal with Dean Nearon, after I told Attorney Hendel that I believed Dean Nearon was in gross violation of Title IX and ADA regulations, and after I told her that Dean Nearon had expressed callous disregard for my personal safety on campus, was harassment and retaliation against me on the basis of race, disability, sex, and age. I told Attorney Hendel as much via email. This occurred in March, 2018.

I also wish to make clear that the Yale Campus Police Department considers itself a private force hired by Yale University, and they often attempt to circumvent their obligations to the general public by claiming such, including FOIA requests. They are agents of Yale University. As such, given that Yale University receives federal funding, the Campus Police cannot discriminate on the basis of race, sex, disability, and age. I am alleging that the Campus Police grossly discriminated and harassed and retaliated against me on the basis of race, age, disability, and sex, as I detailed in my original complaint to the OCR. The OCR should open an investigation into the illegal acts of the Campus Police. The OCR’s letter dismissing the complaint failed to address any of these gross violations.

The OCR’s letter dismissing the complaint claims that the harassment and stalking and retaliation and discrimination that I have endured from students, Resident Coordinators, University Officials, and the Campus Police, cannot be taken to have been on the basis of race, sex, disability, or age, because this is too speculative. Frankly, I find this claim to be preposterous. First and foremost, as I made clear above, the harassment, discrimination, and retaliation need not be direct; it may be indirect as well. I am alleging both direct and indirect harassment, stalking, discrimination, and retaliation on the part of students, Resident Coordinators, University Officials, and the Campus Police.

It could not be clearer that I was being harassed and stalked, in my dorm room and as I walked across campus, on the basis of my mental health disability. As I mention above, the illegal video recording of me on May 8^th, 2018, makes this more than clear. Additionally, my attackers made it more than clear in their global defamation campaign that they waged against me immediately following the May 8^th, 2018 incident, that they had always been targeting me due to my mental health disability, and that Yale was not only aware of this fact, but that the Yale Administration also assisted them in their efforts. For the OCR to state that it’s too speculative to infer that I was being targeted on the basis of my mental health disability by students, Resident Coordinators, University Officials, and the Yale Campus Police, both directly and indirectly, is ludicrous.

On February 24^th, 2018, I made clear to my attacker, Jean Louis Reneson, that I was asking him to leave, because I was a woman, alone, and he had followed me up to my isolated dorm room to gain unauthorized access to the 12^thfloor of the tower of the Hall of Graduate Studies. I could not have made this clearer. It was out of concern for my personal safety, as a woman living alone in an isolated dorm room, that I called the non-emergency helpline of the Yale Campus Police on February 24^th, 2018. I could not have made this fact clearer to everyone involved, including the Yale Administration, Yale Housing, and the Yale Campus Police. This fact is reiterated in my Yale Campus Police report dated March 9^th, 2018, and filed with Yale Campus Police Officer Grace Schenkle. Again, the Housing Managers investigated the February 24^th, 2018 incident and fully exonerated me. They told me that they would discipline the Resident Coordinators for not having handled the situation properly. I am repeating these facts, because I want to make clear that the students involved, the Resident Coordinators, the University Officials, and the Yale Campus Police Department harassed and stalked me, discriminated against me, and retaliated against me, not because they believed that I had been accused of or had perpetrated racial harassment, but due to my race, sex, disability, and age. Everyone knew that I had NOT perpetrated racial harassment. I was being harassed and stalked and attacked, discriminated and retaliated against, because I had dared to assert my rights to be safe on Yale’s campus, as an older, disabled woman, by telling a man who had followed me up to my isolated dorm room, and who had clearly gained unauthorized access thereto, to leave, and because I had called the non emergency helpline of the Yale Campus Police, and because I had taken reasonable precautions to enter my dorm room safely. And, moreover, I was being discriminated and retaliated against, by University Officials, when I asserted that they were in gross violation of Federal Civil Rights Laws by engaging in such discrimination and retaliation and direct and indirect harassment and stalking and attacks. (As I made clear in my complaint to the OCR, the Yale Administration jumped at the chance to expel me again, as they had tried to do in Spring, 2015.)

I made clear to Yale Housing, the Yale Administration, and the Yale Campus Police Department that I had grave concerns that Yale was taking the position that an older, disabled woman who lives alone in an isolated dorm room in Yale’s on campus graduate student housing does not have the right to take reasonable precautions to ensure that she can enter her isolated dorm room safely; that she does not have the right to tell a man who followed her up to her isolated dorm room to gain unauthorized access thereto to leave; that she does not have the right to call the non emergency helpline of the Yale Campus Police when she is followed by a man up to her isolated dorm room, a man who had clearly gained unauthorized access thereto. The notion that it is too speculative to infer that I was being discriminated against, harassed and stalked, and retaliated against on the basis of sex is preposterous.

I made clear to Dean Nearon via email that I took her refusals to address the harassment and stalking and attacks against me as gross violations of Title IX and the ADA. I made clear to Attorney Hendel that I took her refusals to address the harassment and stalking and attacks against me as gross violations of Title IX and the ADA, as well as her insistence that I deal with Dean Nearon, after I had made clear that I believed Dean Nearon to be in gross violation of Title IX and the ADA. I made clear to Provost Spangler and Associate Provost Cynthia Smith and Yale Campus Police Chief Ronnell Higgins that I took Dean Nearon and Attorney Hendel and Sergeant Robbins-Hoffman and Yale Housing and the Yale Campus Police Department to be in gross violation of Title IX and the ADA. The notion that it is too speculative to infer that I was being discriminated against, harassed and stalked and attacked, and retaliated against on the basis of race, sex, disability, and age is preposterous.

Moreover, the May 8^th, 2018 incident and subsequent global defamation campaign against me took place at the apex of the Living While Black movement. It is more than clear from the statements of my attackers subsequent to the May 8^th, 2018 incident, as well as the statements of University Officials, that they had every intention of taking full advantage of the Living While Black narrative to destroy my life and career, as well as drive me to suicide and incite my murder. They, including University Officials, had every intention of globally and publicly branding me a racist, not because they knew that I had been accused of or had perpetrated racial harassment, but to target me for my race, sex, diability, and age. For the OCR to suggest that it is too speculative to infer that I was harassed and stalked and attacked, and discriminated and retaliated against, including by University Officials and the Yale Campus Police department, on the basis of race, sex, disability, and age, is, quite frankly, preposterous. Quite frankly, I was the victim of a hate crime hoax, and the Yale Administration and the Yale Campus Police were complicit.

Finally, the OCR’s statement that I was not engaged in a protected activity is preposterous. I was very clearly engaged in a protected activity, was a member of multiple protected classes, was being targeted because of my membership in those protected classes, and suffered adverse actions by Yale University, which adversely affected my ability to participate in those protected activities. The OCR claims that being accused of having perpetrated racial harassment is not a protected activity. The notion that this was the protected activity in which I was engaged is ludicrous. Clearly, I was engaged in the protected activity of studying, living, and working on Yale’s campus, as an older, disabled white woman. Clearly, the protected activity I was engaged in was walking across campus while being free from discrimination and harassment and stalking and attacks on the basis of my race, sex, disability, and age. Clearly, I was engaged in the protected activity of living in Yale’s on campus housing while being free from discrimination and harassment and stalking and attacks and retaliation on the basis of my race, sex, disability, and age. Clearly, I was engaged in the protected activity of having the right to tell a man who had followed me up to my isolated dorm room and gained unauthorized access thereto to leave. Clearly, I was engaged in the protected activity of having the right to call the non emergency helpline of the Yale Campus Police after having been followed up to my isolated dorm room by a man who had clearly gained unauthorized access thereto. Clearly, I was engaged in the protected activity of pursuing my academic and occupational goals as a graduate student at Yale University without being attacked and harassed and discriminated against and retaliated against by University Officials and the Yale Campus Police department on the basis of race, age, disability, and sex.

I suffered untold adverse actions by University Officials and the Yale Campus Police Department. They destroyed my life and career. They ruined my reputation and livelihood. They almost drove me to suicide and almost incited my murder. They made grossly false and wrongful and defamatory public statements about me. They wrongfully charged me with racial harassment, even though they knew I was entirely innocent, and they did this due to my race, sex, disability, and age. They wrongfully banned me from campus. They wrongfully banned me from teaching at Yale. I will not now be able to complete a crucial component of my dissertation – the empirical social psychological study on the nature of authority and the nature of the relationship between authority and legitimacy. These bans remain in effect to this day. I almost died, because of what they did to me. I will never be able to secure gainful employment. I will never be able to support myself. My human and civil rights and legal and academic careers are over, through no fault of my own. My life has been completely and utterly devastated, because of what they did to me, and I am asking the Federal Office for Civil Rights to open an investigation at Yale University for these reasons. Please do the right thing and help me.

Letter to Kimberley D. Harris, General Counsel for NBCUniversal, Demanding a Retraction and Apology and as Notice of the Illegal Distribution of the Illegal Video Recording of Me

Notice to Cease and Desist and Notice of Demand for Retraction and Apology

April 27, 2019

Attorney Kimberley D. Harris, Executive Vice President, Comcast Corporation, and General Counsel

NBCUniversal

30 Rockefeller Plaza

New York, NY 10112

Re: Defamation of Character of Sarah Braasch

Attorney Harris:

First and foremost, this letter serves as notice that the video recording made of me on May 8^th, 2018, in my Yale University dormitory, the Hall of Graduate Studies, was made illegally, under Connecticut State Law, and the distribution of this video recording, either the audio or the video therefrom, or any part thereof, is illegal under Connecticut State Law, including under CT General Statutes, Chapter 952, Section 53A, Provisions 189 a and b. I intend to pursue prosecution for the illegal distribution of this video recording to the full extent of the law. The distribution of this illegal video recording is a felony under CT State Law, with a statute of limitations of 5 years. I demand that you remove this video wherever it may have been posted by any agent of Comcast Corporation. I demand that you remove any links to this video wherever these links may have been posted by any agent of Comcast Corporation.

This letter serves as a demand that all Comcast Corporation agents cease and desist their grossly false and defamatory statements about me, Sarah Braasch, immediately. This letter also serves as a demand that all Comcast Corporation agents who have made such grossly false and defamatory statements about me, including, but not limited to, NBC News, Ron Allen, and Erik Ortiz, immediately and publicly retract those statements and immediately and publicly apologize to me, Sarah Braasch, for having made those grossly false and defamatory statements.

These grossly false and defamatory statements include, but are not limited to, the following:

NBC Nightly News has produced a broadcast video, dated May 10^th, 2018, which grossly defames me as guilty of racial harassment. This video is available on NBC’s website and their YouTube Channel, and has been widely viewed and distributed online. Ron Allen of NBC Nightly News explicitly states in the video that I reported the woman whom I had encountered in the small common room next to my isolated dorm room to the Yale campus police, because I regarded her as suspicious, because she looked different than me, because of the color of her skin. Ron Allen of NBC Nightly News explicitly states in the video that my call to the Yale campus police was unjustified, because the woman whom I had encountered, was, according to NBC Nightly News, doing nothing wrong. Ron Allen of NBC Nightly News explicitly states in the video that I was motivated by racial bias. These are straight up, bald faced lies, on the part of Ron Allen and NBC Nightly News, meant to destroy my life, my career as a lifelong human and civil rights licensed attorney activist, and ruin my reputation and livelihood, with reckless disregard for the truth, lies which almost drove me to suicide and incited my murder.

Moreover, this video was made of me, illegally, and widely distributed online, illegally, for the purpose of shaming me for my disability, my mental health disability, including by NBC News. The fact that I was targeted for my mental health disability is made abundantly clear in the video itself, when my attacker repeatedly calls me psychotic and says that I should be put in a mental institution. She also explicitly states that it was Yale who illegally fed her my personal information, including my mental health history, when she says that Yale knows that I’m crazy and that I should be institutionalized. That NBC News would participate in the network news broadcast and online public shaming of a middle aged, disabled woman, who was made a target, because of her mental health disability, is reprehensible. The most defamatory and disgusting thing that NBC News did in producing this broadcast video meant to destroy my life, a broadcast video which almost drove me to suicide and incited my murder, was to purposely and purposefully omit those portions of the video that make it clear that my attacker was targeting me for my mental health disability, as well as those portions of the video where my attacker stigmatizes mental illness and makes clear that Yale was illegally feeding her my personal information, in gross violation of my privacy, including my mental health history.

Additionally, NBC News Staff Writer Erik Ortiz has written a grossly and egregiously defamatory article titled, “Police shooting near Yale exposes complex racial divide,” which is dated April 24^th, 2019, and includes a link to the grossly false and defamatory NBC Nightly News broadcast video with Ron Allen, dated May 10^th, 2018. It is difficult to believe that NBC News would do something so vile and defamatory as to link an innocent civil rights activist and older disabled woman, who is the victim of a campaign of harassment and stalking, in part due to her mental health disability, facts which are common knowledge, to a police shooting of a black woman near Yale that sparked protests about racism and police brutality. NBC News Staff Writer Erik Ortiz explicitly states that I am the reason why there is not a better relationship between the Yale Campus Police Department and the black communities surrounding Yale University. This is a straight up, bald faced lie, on the part of NBC News, meant to destroy my life, my career as a lifelong human and civil rights licensed attorney activist, and ruin my reputation and livelihood, with reckless disregard for the truth, a lie which almost drove me to suicide and incited my murder.

These are straight-up, bald-faced lies, on the part of Comcast Corporation, including NBC News, Ron Allen, and Erik Ortiz, meant to destroy my life, my career as a lifelong human and civil rights licensed attorney activist, and ruin my reputation and livelihood, with reckless disregard for the truth, lies which almost drove me to suicide and incited my murder. Ron Allen lied on NBC Nightly News about me. He didn’t even try to find out the truth of what happened. He did not meet the bare minimum requirement with respect to his ethical and journalistic obligations to report the truth before he endangered and destroyed my life by telling lies about me on NBC Nightly News, broadcast to the entire world.

The damage to my life, reputation, livelihood, good name, and career are incalculable. I was forced to flee my dorm room and then campus. I was suicidal for near a year and forced into hiding for my personal safety. I continue to be defamed as a racist, including this week, by Erik Ortiz and NBC News. I can’t even begin to count the death threats and threats of violence that I have received. I can’t even begin to count the number of instances of defamation as guilty of racial harassment that I have endured in the national and international news media, as well as on social media, including on NBC News and by Ron Allen and Erik Ortiz. My academic and legal and human and civil rights careers are over. I will never be able to secure gainful employment. I will no longer be able to support myself.

I had been a lifelong human and civil rights licensed attorney activist who had devoted her life to undermining oppression in all of its many forms, including racism. No one who has ever known me has ever heard or seen me say or do anything racist ever. Everything that I had wished for my life is no longer possible. Everything that I had strived for my entire life has been destroyed, it has been stripped from me through no fault of my own.

As a result, I immediately demand the following:

Comcast Corporation will remove the illegal video recording of me and any part thereof, wherever it exists, including all links thereto;  
Comcast Corporation will retract and remove all grossly false and defamatory statements about me, wherever they exist, including all links thereto;
Comcast Corporation will produce a statement, including an apology to me, and Comcast Corporation will explain the gross illegality of all other grossly false and defamatory statements about me, as well as their grossly false and defamatory character; this new statement will take the place of the former grossly false and defamatory statements, wherever they exist, including all links thereto;
Comcast Corporation will issue a public apology to me for concluding that I acted with any racial animus or bias in connection with this incident, and stating that all the evidence known to Comcast Corporation suggests otherwise, and this public apology will be read on air on any broadcast that had previously aired grossly false and defamatory statements about me, including on NBC Nightly News, and including by Ron Allen; and  
Comcast Corporation will publicly announce that I have been publicly misrepresented as engaging in discriminatory misconduct, and this public announcement will be read on air on any broadcast that had previously aired grossly false and defamatory statements about me, including on NBC Nightly News, and including by Ron Allen. Indeed my work at Yale and beyond evidence that I harbor no racial animus whatsoever. To the contrary, I have dedicated myself to causes of social justice including the cause of eradicating all forms of discrimination.

I expect a response from you in short order.

Sincerely,

Sarah Braasch

Letter of Demand for Retraction and Apology and Notice of Illegal Distribution of the Illegal Video of Me, Addressed to CNN

Notice to Cease and Desist and Notice of Demand for Retraction and Apology

April 18, 2019

Attorney Louise Sams, Executive Vice President and General Counsel

Turner Broadcasting System, Inc.

One CNN Center

Atlanta, GA 30303

Re: Defamation of Character of Sarah Braasch

Attorney Sams:

First and foremost, this letter serves as notice that the video recording made of me on May 8^th, 2018, in my Yale University dormitory, the Hall of Graduate Studies, was made illegally, under Connecticut State Law, and the distribution of this video recording, either the audio or the video therefrom, is illegal under Connecticut State Law, including under CT General Statutes, Chapter 952, Section 53A, Provisions 189 a and b.

I demand that you remove this video wherever it may have been posted by any agent of Turner Broadcasting System, Inc. I demand that you remove any links to this video wherever these links may have been posted by any agent of Turner Broadcasting System, Inc.

This letter serves as a demand that all Turner Broadcasting System, Inc. agents cease and desist their grossly false and defamatory statements about me, Sarah Braasch, immediately. This letter also serves as a demand that all Turner Broadcasting System, Inc. agents who have made such grossly false and defamatory statements about me, including, but not limited to, CNN and Don Lemon, immediately and publicly retract those statements and immediately and publicly apologize to me, Sarah Braasch, for having made those grossly false and defamatory statements.

These grossly false and defamatory statements include, but are not limited to, the following:

Don Lemon concocted a grotesque fairy tale out of whole cloth on CNN about what had happened during the Living or Napping While Black Hate Crime Hoax at Yale this past spring, and about what I had done and about what my motivations were, and about who I am.

Don Lemon explicitly stated on CNN that what I did was harassment.

Don Lemon strongly implied on CNN that I was trolling the halls of my Yale dorm at 2 am for random sleeping black people to call the police on.

Don Lemon explicitly stated on CNN that I did this for one reason and for one reason only – out of racial animus, because of the color of my attackers’ skin.

Don Lemon strongly implied on CNN that I had just come across a random sleeping black person in the huge main common room of my dorm on the ground floor and then immediately called the police for no reason other than I’m a racist, and I wanted to evict a black person from my white space.

Don Lemon explicitly stated on CNN that I didn’t even try to speak with the woman whom I had encountered before I called the police.

Don Lemon explicitly stated on CNN that I had no good reason to call the police.

Don Lemon explicitly stated on CNN that I did the same thing back in February, 2018, during the February 24^thincident.

When asked why I did what I did he said:

“We all know why. We all know why.”

These are straight-up, bald-faced lies, on the part of Turner Broadcasting System, Inc., including CNN and Don Lemon, meant to destroy my life, my career as a lifelong human and civil rights licensed attorney activist, and ruin my reputation and livelihood, with reckless disregard for the truth, lies which almost drove me to suicide and incited my murder. Don Lemon lied on CNN about me. He didn’t even try to find out the truth of what happened.

Indeed my work at Yale and beyond evidence that I harbor no racial animus whatsoever. To the contrary, I have dedicated myself to causes of social justice including the cause of eradicating all forms of discrimination.

This letter also serves as a demand that all American Civil Liberties Union agents who have made such grossly false and defamatory statements about me, including, but not limited to, Attorney Carl Takei, immediately and publicly retract those statements and immediately and publicly apologize to me, Sarah Braasch, for having made those grossly false and defamatory statements.

These grossly false and defamatory statements include, but are not limited to, the following:

Attorney Carl Takei’s grossly false and defamatory statements about me in his essay on the ACLU website, Colleges and Universities Have a Racial Profiling Problem. Attorney Takei explicitly states that I reported the woman whom I had encountered in the small common room next to my isolated dorm room to the Yale campus police, because I regarded her as suspicious, because of the color of her skin. Attorney Takei explicitly states that my call to the Yale campus police was unjustified. Attorney Takei explicitly states that I was motivated by racial bias. Attorney Takei explicitly states that I was weaponizing the Yale campus police. This is a straight up, bald faced lie, on the part of the ACLU, meant to destroy my life, my career as a lifelong human and civil rights licensed attorney activist, and ruin my reputation and livelihood, with reckless disregard for the truth, a lie which almost drove me to suicide and incited my murder.

The ACLU has produced a video which grossly defames me as guilty of racial harassment. This video is available on the ACLU’s website and their YouTube Channel, and has been widely viewed and distributed online. The ACLU explicitly states in the video that I reported the woman whom I had encountered in the small common room next to my isolated dorm room to the Yale campus police, because I regarded her as suspicious, because of the color of her skin. The ACLU explicitly states in the video that my call to the Yale campus police was unjustified. The ACLU explicitly states in the video that I was motivated by racial bias. The ACLU explicitly states in the video that I was weaponizing the Yale campus police. This is a straight up, bald faced lie, on the part of the ACLU, meant to destroy my life, my career as a lifelong human and civil rights licensed attorney activist, and ruin my reputation and livelihood, with reckless disregard for the truth, a lie which almost drove me to suicide and incited my murder.

Moreover, this video was made of me, illegally, and widely distributed online, illegally, for the purpose of shaming me for my disability, my mental health disability, including by the ACLU. The fact that I was targeted for my mental health disability is made abundantly clear in the video itself, when my attacker repeatedly calls me psychotic and says that I should be put in a mental institution. She also explicitly states that it was Yale who illegally fed her my personal information, including my mental health history, when she says that Yale knows that I’m crazy and that I should be institutionalized. That the ACLU would participate in the online public shaming of a middle aged, disabled woman, who was made a target, because of her mental health disability, is a renunciation of the ACLU’s campaigns regarding disability rights, as well as privacy, including online privacy. The most defamatory and disgusting thing that the ACLU did in producing this video meant to destroy my life, a video which almost drove me to suicide and incited my murder, was to purposely and purposefully omit those portions of the video that make it clear that my attacker was targeting me for my mental health disability, as well as those portions of the video where my attacker stigmatizes mental illness and makes clear that Yale was illegally feeding her my personal information, in gross violation of my privacy, including my mental health history.

The damage to my life, reputation, livelihood, good name, and career are incalculable. I was forced to flee my dorm room and then campus. I was suicidal for near a year and forced into hiding for my personal safety. I continue to be defamed as a racist. I can’t even begin to count the death threats and threats of violence that I have received. I can’t even begin to count the number of instances of defamation as guilty of racial harassment that I have endured in the national and international news media, as well as on social media, including on the ACLU’s own website, its YouTube Channel, and social media accounts, including those of the ACLU’s many agents and affiliates. My academic and legal and human and civil rights careers are over. I will never be able to secure gainful employment. I will no longer be able to support myself.

As a result, I immediately demand the following:

The ACLU will retract and remove Attorney Takei’s grossly false and defamatory essay, wherever it exists, including all links thereto;
The ACLU will retract and remove its grossly false and defamatory video about me, wherever it exists, including all links thereto;
The ACLU will retract and remove all other grossly false and defamatory statements about me, wherever they exist, including all links thereto;
Attorney Takei will write a new essay, including an apology to me, and he will explain the gross illegality of the prior essay, as well as its grossly defamatory character; this new essay will take the place of the former grossly false and defamatory essay, wherever it exists, including all links thereto;
The ACLU will produce a new video, including an apology to me, and the ACLU will explain the gross illegality of the prior video, as well as its grossly defamatory character; this new video will take the place of the former grossly false and defamatory video, wherever it exists, including all links thereto;
The ACLU will produce a statement, including an apology to me, and the ACLU will explain the gross illegality of all other grossly false and defamatory statements about me, as well as their grossly defamatory character; this new statement will take the place of the former grossly false and defamatory statements, wherever they exist, including all links thereto;
The ACLU will issue a public apology to me for concluding that I acted with any racial animus in connection with this incidence, and stating that all the evidence known to the ACLU suggests otherwise; and
The ACLU will publicly announce that I have been publicly misrepresented as engaging in discriminatory misconduct. Indeed my work at Yale and beyond evidence that I harbor no racial animus whatsoever. To the contrary, I have dedicated myself to causes of social justice including the cause of eradicating all forms of discrimination.

I expect a response from you in short order.

Sincerely,

Sarah Braasch

Email to Yale Campus Police Chief Ronnell Higgins, Asking Him to Pursue Criminal Charges Against Lolade Siyonbola for the Illegal Recording of Me on May 8th, 2018, During the Living or Napping While Black Hate Crime Hoax

This is the email that I sent to Yale Campus Police Chief Ronnell Higgins, asking him to pursue criminal charges against Lolade Siyonbola for the illegal recording of me on May 8th, 2018, during the Living or Napping While Black Hate Crime Hoax at Yale:

Chief Higgins,
As I have already requested, I am requesting that the Yale Police Department pursue criminal charges against Lolade Siyonbola for illegally recording me on May 8th, 2018, in the Hall of Graduate Studies, and for illegally distributing this recording, including online.
I was standing in the threshold of my dorm room when I was recorded. I had a reasonable expectation of privacy in this location. Moreover, because Connecticut is a 2 party state, and this was a private conversation between two persons, this recording was illegal, because I neither knew I was being recorded, nor did I consent to being recorded.
Moreover, this recording and its subsequent distribution, including online, was illegal under CT General Statutes, Chapter 952, Section 53A, Provisions 189 a and b.
I look forward to your response.
Thank you.
Best regards,
Sarah Braasch

Yale’s Title VI Review Report on the Living or Napping While Black Hate Crime Hoax is a Complete and Utter Farce

I want to make clear right from the beginning that Yale’s ridiculous and farcical Title VI Review Report, the impetus for which, as Yale President Peter Salovey has made clear on multiple occasions, was the Living or Napping While Black Hate Crime Hoax, is immediately disqualified as illegitimate for the simple fact that NO ONE spoke to me, and NO ONE asked to speak to me. I’m just wondering how you write a report reviewing a hate crime hoax, and you interview the perpetrators of the hoax, and you interview those complicit in the hoax, but you neglect to interview the ACTUAL VICTIM OF THE HATE CRIME HOAX?!

I want to make clear right from the beginning that Yale’s farcical and asinine Title VI Review Report about the Living or Napping While Black Hate Crime Hoax is immediately disqualified as illegitimate for the simple fact that it does NOT refer to the Yale Campus Police Body Camera Footage from May 8th, 2018, which exonerates me and exposes Yale’s malfeasance. It is shameful that the report does not refer to this footage.

In point of fact, Yale’s ridiculous Title VI Review Report fails to include a single interview with a single Yale Campus Police Officer. There is no interview with Officer Grace Schenkle, who filed my initial and subsequent police reports. There is no interview, even, with Yale Campus Police Chief Ronnell Higgins. I can only assume that this is because Yale didn’t want to address the truth — the truth that this was a hate crime hoax. I can only assume that Yale didn’t want to address the fact that I was repeatedly instructed to call the Yale Campus Police for any reason at any time. I can only assume that Yale didn’t want to address the content of the Yale Campus Police Body Camera Footage, which is that I tried, in vain, to tell the Yale Police Officers what was really happening, that I was the victim of harassment, that evening and for months, not the perpetrator. I can only assume that Yale didn’t want to address the fact that the recording that was made of me was illegal and that it was distributed illegally for the purpose of shaming me for my mental health disability. And, I assume that Yale didn’t want to address the fact that my attacker makes clear in her illegal recording of me that Yale illegally fed her my personal information, including my mental health history. I also assume that Yale didn’t want to address the fact that I had begged both the Yale Administration and the Yale Campus Police for months to stop the harassment, stalking, and attacks against me.

The characterization in Yale’s asinine Title VI Review Report of the Living or Napping While Black Hate Crime Hoax is grossly false and defamatory. It is as follows:

BEGIN QUOTE

A key marker in this timeline is the May 8, 2018, incident in Yale’s Hall of Graduate Studies, in which a White student called the Yale Police on a Black student who was napping in a common room in a residential area of the building. Coming amid a national pattern of instances in which police were called on people of color engaged in normal, legitimate activities, the event created concern and anger. In the immediate aftermath, Yale President Peter Salovey and other university leaders, including Yale’s chief of police, issued at least six statements on the inappropriateness of the call to the police, and underscored their vision and expectations around belonging at Yale.

END QUOTE

This characterization of the Living or Napping While Black Hate Crime Hoax at Yale is a straight up, bald faced lie.

This description of the Living or Napping While Black Hate Crime Hoax leaves out that I was being terrorized in my isolated dorm room on Yale’s campus for months, ever since the February 24th, 2018 incident. (I was also being stalked across campus.) This grossly false and defamatory description leaves out the fact that I was exonerated by the Yale Housing Managers regarding the February 24th, 2018 incident. These lies leave out the fact that I was the person who was terrorized on February 24th, 2018, in my isolated dorm room. These lies leave out the fact that I was being terrorized on the evening of May 7th, 2018, by persons using the small, little used room next to my isolated dorm room. These lies leave out the fact that I had begged the Yale Administration and the Yale campus police to protect me and to make the stalking, harassment, and attacks against me stop, to no avail. These lies leave out the fact that the only thing the Yale Administration and the Yale Campus Police told me to do, repeatedly, was to call the Yale Campus Police at any time, for any reason whatsoever, even if I was unsure whether such a call was merited or no.

These lies leave out the fact that I happened upon an unidentifiable human form, entirely obscured by a blanket, camped immediately outside my isolated dorm room (in the small, little used room next to my isolated dorm room), after having been terrorized in my isolated dorm room all evening, on May 7th, 2018, and that I had no idea of the identity or the race or the sex of this unidentifiable human form, because they were entirely obscured by a blanket. These lies leave out the fact that I only called the Yale Campus Police, as I had been repeatedly instructed to do at any time, for any reason, by the Yale Administration and the Yale Campus Police, AFTER the person whom I had encountered made statements to me that made it clear to me that this was very likely one of the persons who had been terrorizing me all evening and, possibly, for months. These lies leave out the fact that I made all of these details clear to the Yale Campus Police on May 8th, 2018. These lies leave out the fact that the Yale Campus Police Body Camera Footage from May 8th, 2018, exonerates me and exposes Yale’s malfeasance. (Yale continues to refuse to release the Yale Campus Police Body Camera Footage from May 8th, 2018, which exonerates me and exposes Yale’s malfeasance.) These lies leave out the fact that I communicated all of these details, via email, to the Yale Administration, the Yale Campus Police, and Yale Housing, BEFORE the Yale Police Officers even arrived on May 8th, 2018.

These lies leave out the fact that I was illegally recorded on May 8th, 2018, in the threshold of my isolated dorm room, where I have a reasonable expectation of privacy, and without my knowledge or consent. These lies leave out the fact that this illegal recording of me was made to shame me for my mental health disability, a fact made clear in the illegal recording itself by my attacker, who stigmatizes mental illness, calls for me to be institutionalized, refers to me as crazy and psychotic, and makes clear that Yale had been illegally feeding her my personal information, including my mental health history. (The Yale Campus Police continues to refuse to pursue criminal charges against my attackers for this illegal recording, which was subsequently illegally and widely distributed online for the purpose of shaming me for my mental health disability.)

This grossly false and defamatory description of the Living or Napping While Black Hate Crime Hoax at Yale is shocking to say the least.

It is shocking that the Associate Dean of Graduate Student Development and Diversity, Michelle Nearon, was not interviewed for this Title VI Review Report. I have to wonder if this is because Dean Nearon told me, in no uncertain terms, after the February 24th, 2018 incident, that if I had concerns for my personal safety on campus, that I should leave campus and move out of my home in the Hall of Graduate Studies. She also told me that she had no interest in my personal safety. She also told me that she had no intention of ever addressing the students who terrorized me in my isolated dorm room on February 24th, 2018, nor the students who were stalking me as I walked across campus.

It is shocking that no one from Yale Housing was interviewed for the Title VI Review Report, and I can only imagine that this is because the Yale Housing Managers exonerated me for the February 24th, 2018 incident, and told me that they would deal with all of the students who had terrorized me on that evening in my isolated dorm room. Also, the Yale Housing Director George Longyear was the one who told me that I was being accused of racism by a group of Yale Deans who had already determined punishments for me, including participating in a public town hall, during which I was to publicly declare myself a racist and teach other members of the Yale community how not to be racist like me. Yale Housing was fully aware that I had been terrorized in my isolated dorm room and stalked across campus for months, including by the Resident Coordinators of the Hall of Graduate Studies.

Yale’s farcical and asinine Title VI Review Report refers explicitly to the many grossly false and defamatory public statements by the Yale Administration, including President Peter Salovey, VP of Student Life Kimberly Goff-Crews, Yale Grad School Dean Lynn Cooley, and Yale Campus Police Chief Ronnell Higgins. These grossly false and defamatory public statements were part of a global, murderous defamation campaign against me, led by Yale, which almost got me killed, by driving me to suicide and inciting my murder. The Title VI Review Report explicitly quotes Yale President Peter Salovey’s egregiously defamatory and false August 1st statement, which also effectively precluded the possibility of me receiving a fair hearing at Yale, and denied me all due process rights. Also, this statement incited another online mobbing against me, including death threats and threats of violence, including sexual violence.

I can only interpret Yale’s farcical and asinine Title VI Review Report as an attempt to legitimize these grossly false and defamatory public statements by Yale that almost got me killed and destroyed my life and civil rights career.

Yale’s ridiculous Title VI Review Report doesn’t address or even consider the possibility of Race and Hate Crime Hoaxes, even though there is a Race and Hate Crime Hoax Crisis taking place on college campuses. Most of the Living While Black incidents have turned out to be Race and Hate Crime Hoaxes, including those that have taken place on college campuses. This includes the incident at Smith College and the incident at UT San Antonio.

Yale’s ridiculous Title VI Review Report does not consider the Due Process Rights of the accused. The Report treats all accusations of racism as a foregone conclusion that racism occurred, and treats any corresponding investigations as formal exercises that must be endured in order to condemn the accused. This is not surprising in the least, since the report discusses Intersectionality at length. The foundational premise of intersectional feminism is that an accusation of racism by a black person against a white person is a condemnation of racism against the accused white person. Any demand for due process is racist. Any attempt to defend one’s self against the false accusation of racism is racist. This is because any attempt to defend one’s self and any demand for due process is considered an attempt to uphold the current status quo system of oppression.

It is not surprising in the least that Yale’s ridiculous Title VI Review Report recommends NOT establishing a Title VI Office on campus. This is the LAST thing that Yale wants. Yale does not want to have to recognize the due process rights of the accused. They want to be able to simply destroy the lives of any students who have been accused of racism. They want to be able to simply oust them as individual bad apples. And, they never want to have to admit that any black students falsely accused their fellow students or engaged in any wrongdoing. Quite simply, Yale wants to be able to simply throw accused students under the bus to appease the Intersectional Left on campus.

I find it so interesting that Yale’s ridiculous and defamatory Title VI Review Report includes an interview with Susan Sawyer but not Caroline Hendel from Yale’s General Counsel Office. Susan Sawyer was the Attorney with whom my Attorney primarily dealt. She was fully aware and admitted that there was no reason to think that I had ever acted out of racial animus or bias in any way, shape, or form. She admitted as much BEFORE Yale President Peter Salovey made his grossly false and defamatory August statement about me that put my life in grave danger and precluded the possibility of me receiving a fair hearing on Yale’s campus. I know for a fact that many persons inside Yale tried to tell President Salovey how illegal, immoral, false, defamatory, and wrongful his August public statement was.

I find it so interesting that Yale’s ridiculous Title VI Review Report doesn’t include an interview with Attorney Caroline Hendel of Yale’s General Counsel. Attorney Hendel was the attorney to whom I addressed my concerns when I was unable to resolve the issue with Dean Nearon following the February 24th, 2018 incident. I expressed to Attorney Hendel that I believed that Dean Nearon was in gross violation of Title IX and the ADA. I told Attorney Hendel that Dean Nearon has expressed a callous disregard for my personal safety. Attorney Hendel essentially told me that she didn’t care and that I had no choice but to deal with Dean Nearon. This was coming from someone on Yale’s Title IX Steering Committee.

I was shocked to see that Yale’s fallacious Title VI Review Report did include an interview with Yale Provost and University wide Title IX Coordinator Stephanie Spangler. Provost Spangler was the person with whom I primarily dealt, along with Provost Cynthia Smith. Back in March, Provost Spangler told me not to worry. She told me that everything would be ok. She told me that Yale would always do the right thing, regardless of legal liability or PR. Obviously, she lied. I now realize that she wasn’t actually trying to help me, which is her job; she was merely trying to go thru the motions of helping me to protect Yale from legal liability. I am truly devastated by her betrayal. I know that I have to stop thinking that people whose jobs are to help me are actually telling the truth and that they are actually going to do their jobs and help me, and that they are on my side. She must have stabbed me in the back and lied about everything, given the outcome of the Report.

I think it’s egregious and disgusting that Yale’s Title VI Review Report refers to the grossly false and defamatory Open Letter with an Addendum from Black Graduate and Professional Students and Our Allies to Our University Administrators with Recommendations for Dismantling Racism at Yale. This letter condemns me as guilty of racial harassment and was submitted to the Administration before the Yale community or the public knew any of the facts of the matter, which the Administration subsequently lied about. The letter calls for a zero tolerance policy regarding racial policing. Well, I am here, by the grace of God, to let you know that the only person whose presence was being policed on the basis of race on Yale’s campus was me. So, in this case, if this is what they truly want, then my attackers at Yale should be expelled for their disgusting and racist behavior. I was the only person being harassed on the basis of race during the Living or Napping While Black Hate Crime Hoax at Yale.

Yale’s ridiculous Title VI Review Report includes an extensive discussion of Yale’s new Belonging at Yale Initiative. I just want to make perfectly clear that Yale has made perfectly clear that this initiative does not include me, nor women like me. Yale’s Belonging at Yale Initiative does NOT include older, poor white women with mental health disabilities. I want to let all older, poor white women with mental health disabilities know that Yale will allow you to be terrorized in your isolated dorm room for months and not only do nothing about it, but also participate in your being terrorized in your own home. If you’re an older, disabled woman on Yale’s campus, Yale will allow you to be stalked as you walk across campus. If you’re an older, disabled woman on Yale’s campus, Yale will illegally feed your personal information to your attackers, including your mental health history. If you’re an older, disabled woman on Yale’s campus, Yale will allow you to be illegally recorded while you are standing in the threshold of your dorm room.

In conclusion, Yale should retract their Title VI Review Report as the complete and utter farce that it is.

Why I Was a Social Pariah at Yale and Why the Yale Administration Was Trying to Expel Me for the Living or Napping While Black Hate Crime Hoax YouTube Channel Video and Transcript

Below please find my Why I Was a Social Pariah at Yale and Why the Yale Administration Was Trying to Expel Me for the Living or Napping While Black Hate Crime Hoax YouTube Channel Video and Transcript. Many persons have requested transcripts of my videos, and I will provide them here, especially the videos of my full, detailed account of what really happened during the now notorious Living or Napping While Black incident at Yale, which was actually a hate crime hoax, and the Yale Administration and the Yale Campus Police were complicit.

Here is the my Why I Was a Social Pariah at Yale and Why the Yale Administration Was Trying to Expel Me for the Living or Napping While Black Hate Crime Hoax YouTube Channel Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7v-1h2C6Ls

Here is the transcript thereof:

Hi. This is Sarah Braasch. Welcome or welcome back to my channel.

Today, I am going to talk about why I was a social pariah on campus at Yale, and why the Yale Administration was looking for any reason to expel me, and to destroy my life and discredit my work.

I was widely despised on campus, including by the Yale Administration. You’d think I’d be used to being socially ostracized, after having grown up in the misogynistic religious cult of the Jehovah’s Witnesses, a cult from which I walked away at 17 with nothing and no one, but it was a very difficult time for me. I ended up having to seek help at the Mental Health Clinic at the Student Health Center on Yale’s campus. I was on psychotropic medication for the next couple of years, including anti-psychotic medication, a point of which much was made by my attackers and the Yale Administration, who illegally fed my personal information to my attackers.

In the Spring of 2015, during my first year in the PhD Program in Philosophy at Yale, our department was undergoing a search for a tenure track Assistant Professor position. I actually hadn’t been much involved.

I found out that some of the graduate students had been trolling online for dirt on the job candidates. Someone found some years old comments that one of the job candidates had made regarding homosexuality. I believe that these comments were made on explicitly Christian community forums. More or less, the comments expressed his adherence to Christian doctrine on all matters, which he understood to include Biblical scripture. He then said that he understood Biblical scripture to include a prohibition on sodomy, which he understood as including a prohibition on homosexual sex. That’s it.

These years old online comments were interpreted as anti-LGBTQ hate speech by many of the graduate students. They decided that they were going to wage a campaign to make sure that this particular job candidate (our only POC job candidate) would not, under any conditions, get the Assistant Professor job. I tried to speak reason and common sense to them. I told them that, arguably, they were part of the hiring process, and that they were wading into legally dangerous waters. I told them that it is a violation of federal civil rights law to discriminate on the basis of religion, and that, arguably, this job candidate had done little more than express his adherence to Biblical scripture as Christian doctrine. I told them that the university has a commitment to free speech and academic freedom, which they were arguably violating. I told them that we’re talking about someone who had already spent years in academia teaching at an elite institution. He has an established history of professional behavior. I told them to speak with a trusted faculty member about their concerns, if they felt like they needed to do so, but to leave it to the faculty to handle it.

I was immediately denounced as anti-LGBTQ. My legal competence was disparaged. My philosophical competence was disparaged. My character was disparaged and maligned.

Then, they stated that they were planning to disrupt the job candidate’s job talk with a protest with rainbow colored wigs and rainbow t-shirts and flags, etc.

I put my foot down. I said, in no uncertain terms, that I would not allow them to do this.

I went to a trusted faculty member. The other graduate students spoke to faculty. Emails were sent. At some point someone leaked the controversy to a popular philosophy blog.

I was accused of having been the one to leak the information to the philosophy blog. It wasn’t me. I was trying to protect the reputation of the Philosophy Department and Yale. I never would have done so.

Department meetings were held. People denied having done things and said things that they had done and said. They tried to make this about me having done something wrong, me being anti-LGBTQ when I’m nothing of the sort, me having violated their privacy by leaking information to the philosophy blog when I had done nothing of the kind. Then, we had a meeting with just the philosophy graduate students that ended with people crying (myself included) and people running out of the room, because I was allegedly making anti-LGBTQ statements (I wasn’t.).

There was another get together planned with just the graduate students to clear the air and to try to repair our community and move forward. I had absolutely no intention of going. I figured it would devolve into a Sarah bashing session. A couple of the faculty members talked me into going. They assured me that the other graduate students were sincere in wanting to mend fences. It was even worse than I had feared. It was me sitting in the center of a circle while 20 or so graduate students took turns berating me and telling me how stupid and evil I am. I stood firm to the end. I tried, repeatedly, to explain my profound commitment to civil libertarianism and freedom of expression, including religious expression, despite my strident anti-religion views. I was in tears and shaking by the end. The graduate students stormed out of the room, leaving me there alone, devastated. That was the last time most of them ever spoke to me.

I immediately became persona non grata amongst the graduate students in the Philosophy Department and beyond. For the next three years, most of the graduate students wouldn’t speak to me. They wouldn’t look at me except to glare at me. They would literally get up and leave a room if I entered it.

It was an incredibly difficult and painful time for me. I struggled with the social ostracization.

It wasn’t so much the social ostracization itself, because, as we all know, I’m quite used to being a social pariah, it was the prodigious disappointment.

When I found out on the very last possible day, April 15^th, 2014, that I had been accepted to Yale, I lied down on the floor in the fetal position and cried tears of joy and relief. I was beyond thrilled. I had the highest expectations for my life and academic career after that point.

And, to have all of those hopes and expectations dashed, to be a social outcast once more, to know that my Yale experience was going to be painful and difficult, when I had hoped for camaraderie and collegiality, was more than I could bear. I was devastated. I fell apart from the shock and the disappointment.

I needed support, and I had no choice but to seek help at the Mental Health Clinic at the Student Health Center. I was treated there for the next two years or so, including with the use of psychotropic and anti-psychotic medication. I don’t think I would have been able to get thru the next couple of years without this assistance.

I was also supported by the faculty. They stood by me through the entire nightmare. In the character letters that the faculty wrote on my behalf recently, after the latest debacle, they wrote that they hoped that they would have the same courage and integrity that I showed when similarly tested. Nothing has made me prouder.

I was later made aware that the graduate students had not been satisfied with merely socially ousting me from the department and making my life a living hell. They wanted me expelled. They went to the Administration. This is what I was told.

I was also made to believe that the only reason why I wasn’t disciplined is because, yet again, the faculty stood up for me.

I am under no illusions about the fact that many of the graduate students were thrilled to see my life and career destroyed and to see me have to flee campus while being taunted by a mob. I’m sure that nothing could have made them happier.

I’m sure that many of the graduate students, those still at Yale and those who have moved on, encouraged the moral outrage mob, online or otherwise, fanning the outrage flames that burned my life to the ground.

I am also under no illusions that the Administration was positively thrilled when I was accused of a racist hate crime this past Spring. I believe that they jumped at the chance to publicly brand me a racist, thereby destroying my life and discrediting my work.

After the nightmare that I have endured, if I had to do it all over again, would I stand up for the federal civil rights of our only POC job candidate? Knowing how my life would be destroyed as a result?

In a heartbeat. I am a profoundly committed civil libertarian. I can only live a life of integrity. My commitment to free speech is principled. Unless you stand up for everyone’s right to express themselves, even to express ideas with which you could not disagree more, then you don’t believe in free speech.

This is why my more religious friends were the first ones to stand up for me. This is why they stood by my side throughout this nightmare, despite my egregious anti religion rhetoric of the past.

They knew I would do it for them, in a heartbeat, without hesitation, no matter the personal cost.

Because they had seen me do it. They had seen me risk my career, risk everything, to stand up for a stranger’s federal civil rights, including his freedom of religious expression rights.

Many persons have requested transcripts of my videos, and I will provide them here, especially the videos of my full, detailed account of what really happened during the now notorious Living or Napping While Black incident at Yale, which was actually a hate crime hoax, and the Yale Administration and the Yale Campus Police were complicit.

Here is the transcript thereof:

Hi. This is Sarah Braasch. Welcome or welcome back to my channel.

In the wake of the Jussie Smollett and Covington Catholic school kids maelstrom, I want to talk about whether I’m a victim of a hate crime hoax. Yes, I am one of many victims of the Living While Black movement, or, as I like to refer to it, The Great Racist Scare of 2018, but was what was done to me an actual hate crime hoax?

I am going to say, definitively, yes, I am a victim of a hate crime hoax.

This is made perfectly clear by the letter that my attackers say they wrote in response to the February 24^th, 2018 incident. (I am convinced that they wrote a letter after the February 24^thincident; I’m not convinced that the letter which was later released to the public is the actual text of the letter that was written back in February.)

But, anyway, in this letter, which they released to the public, my attackers accuse me of having perpetrated an act of violence on the evening of February 24^ththat is comparable to a lynching. (It has been in the news as of late that there is an effort to make lynching a federal hate crime.)

I was not made aware of what it was that I was being accused of having said or done that was racist until sometime in June, 2018. Imagine my shock to discover that I had been accused of having perpetrated an act of violence that is comparable to a lynching.

Let me just pause for a moment to remind everyone what it is that I actually did on the evening of February 24^th, 2018, that is now being construed as an act of violence that is comparable to a lynching. I took reasonable precautions to make sure that I was able to enter my isolated dorm room safely. I asked a man who had seemed to have followed me up to my isolated dorm room to leave, because he did not appear to have authorization to be there. I called the non emergency helpline of the Yale campus police, and the first thing I said to them was, “I’m not sure if I really need your assistance or no.” And, they told me that they would send someone by, just in case, just to make sure that everything is ok.

That’s it. That’s what I did on the evening of February 24^th, 2018, that is now being construed as an act of violence comparable to a lynching. And, I just want to remind everyone that I am the person who was terrorized in my own home on the evening of February 24^th, 2018. I was trapped in my dorm room for hours, terrified to leave.

I am a severely traumatized, middle aged woman with mental health disabilities who was simply taking reasonable precautions to ensure that I was able to enter my isolated dorm room safely, my isolated dorm room where I live like a hermit and toil on my dissertation in obscurity.

That’s where we’re at as a society. That’s what counts as a lynching on today’s college campuses by the Far Left ideological fascists and intersectional feminists.

The point being, when my attackers went to Michelle Nearon, the Yale Graduate School Dean of Development and Diversity, they wanted her to understand that I had perpetrated a hate crime. And, the Yale Deans certainly treated me, without any due process whatoever, as if I were guilty of having perpetrated a hate crime.

When my attackers released this text to the public, they wanted the public to understand that I had perpetrated a hate crime. And, the public, overwhelmingly, understood their accusation as such. I was deluged with death threats and threats of violence, including sexual violence, that explicitly stated that I should be murdered, thrown in prison, and lose my career and my livelihood and my reputation, because I had perpetrated a hate crime comparable to a lynching.

Ok. But, maybe my attackers were being sincere. Maybe they really thought that I had perpetrated a hate crime, a racially motivated act of violence comparable to a lynching.

That, in and of itself, is an extraordinary indictment of the intersectional feminism and Far Left ideological fascism overwhelming today’s college campuses.

But, let’s consider that position for a moment. It seems that you can’t properly call a hate crime accusation a hoax, if the accusers are being sincere, right?

You can even consider what occurred on May 8^th, 2018, when I was illegally recorded in the threshold of my dorm room, a staged trap. (It was a staged trap.) But, you might still think that my attackers were being sincere in the sense that they were trying to trap me in the act of perpetrating a hate crime, a racially motivated act of violence comparable to a lynching.

There are several (or many) problems with this claim.

First – the account by my attackers of what occurred on February 24^th, 2018, in the text that they released to the public, is an incoherent fabrication from beginning to end. Literally nothing that they said happened actually happened.

The man who made numerous television appearances says that I invited him into the elevator. This is clearly a lie. They said this because they didn’t want to have to say that he followed me up to my isolated dorm room or that he had gained unauthorized access to the 12^thfloor of the Hall of Graduate Studies, which he did.

But, then, this still makes no sense, because what kind of self-respecting racist hate crime perpetrator invites their victim to accompany them up to their isolated dorm room? And, then they say that I called him an intruder. Well, he’s not an intruder if I invited him to accompany me, is he? Are they saying that I did this, intending all along to call the Yale campus police on him? Their entire scenario literally makes no sense.

Second – the Yale Housing Managers investigated what occurred on February 24^th. When I met with the Yale Housing Managers, they told me that I had done absolutely nothing wrong. They told me that I was the only person involved who had done nothing wrong. They told me that they would deal with all of the other persons involved, including whomever had terrorized me in my dorm room that evening, and they told me that they intended to discipline the Resident Coordinators for the way that they had handled the situation.

I can only assume that my attackers went to the Yale Deans to accuse me of having perpetrated an act of violence comparable to a lynching, because they were upset with the decision of the Yale Housing Managers.

They didn’t accuse me of having perpetrated a hate crime, because they believed that I had actually perpetrated a hate crime.

I believe that they 1 – were trying to get revenge against me for having phoned the Yale campus police. And, 2 – they were trying to deflect blame from themselves for their own wrongdoing. (I also believe that jealousy on the part of the woman who made numerous television appearances played no small part in her decision to accuse me of having perpetrated a hate crime.)

Moreover, consider what occurred on May 8^th, 2018. I called the non emergency helpline of the Yale campus police on the morning of May 8^th, because I encountered someone who made statements to me that made it clear to me that she was very likely one of the persons who had been terrorizing me in my isolated dorm room that evening and for months.

What statements did she make? She indicated that she knew that I was the lady who had called the cops on that party – referring to February 24^th.

My attackers staged a trap for me on May 8^th, not to actually catch me perpetrating an actual hate crime, but to get revenge against me for a delusional, jealous, and obsessive personal vendetta.

Additionally, consider how the numerous television and media appearances and statements must have been pre-planned. They happened within hours or a day or two of the May 8^thincident. I started receiving twitter emails from Shaun King and other moral outrage warriors of the moral outrage industry within hours of the May 8^thincident.

I don’t think it’s hyperbole to construe what my attackers did as a full blown, immediate, and pre-planned media blitz. I’ll bet most hate crime victims wish they could preplan for their follow up media appearances in this way.

And, this is why I consider myself a victim of a hate crime hoax.

I also want to make the point that when the intersectional feminists, including Roxane Gay, continue to cast me as a violent, dangerous, and threatening psychotic, and continue to call me racist, because they don’t want to admit that they defamed me and participated in the destruction of my life, they are perpetuating this hate crime hoax.

I think that other victims of the Living While Black movement may also be victims of actual hate crime hoaxes. But, we would have to consider the ad hoc circumstances of the frauds.

Here is the transcript thereof:

Hi. This is Sarah Braasch. Welcome or welcome back to my channel.

Today, I want to do a 3 minute or so video giving you a complete summary statement of what really happened at Yale this past spring during the now infamous Living or Napping While Black incident.

First, I had an unfortunate encounter outside of my isolated dorm room with the man who made numerous television appearances on February 24^th, 2018. I ended up calling the non emergency helpline of the Yale campus police. I told them that I wasn’t sure that I needed their help, but they said that they would send someone by, just in case. Later that evening, I was terrorized in my isolated dorm room for having done so. I sent an email to the Resident Coordinators of my dorm, who insinuated that I had done something wrong. I met with the Yale Housing Managers who told me that not only had I done absolutely nothing wrong, but that I was the only person who had done nothing wrong, and that they intended to discipline the Resident Coordinators.

After having been made aware a week later, by the Yale Housing Director, that I was being accused of racism, including by a group of Yale Deans, who had already determined punishments for me, I attempted, unsuccessfully, for months, to work with the Yale Administration and the Yale Campus Police, to clear my name and to restore my good reputation. All the while, I was being terrorized in my isolated dorm room, presumably by the persons who were involved in the February 24^thincident and the Resident Coordinators. The Yale Administration and the Yale Campus Police stood by and did absolutely nothing, while I was being stalked, harassed, and attacked. The only thing the Yale Administration and the Yale Campus Police told me to do was to call the Yale Campus Police for any reason, at any time, even if I was unsure that the circumstances merited such a call.

On May 8^th, 2018, while I was attempting to flee my home, out of fear of violence, and after having been terrorized in my isolated dorm room all evening, I happened upon someone in the small common room, next to my isolated dorm room, who made statements to me that made it clear that she was one of the persons who had been terrorizing me that evening, and for months.

I called the non emergency helpline of the Yale Campus Police for that reason. I had to show my student ID, and I was not only interrogated, but berated by the Yale Campus Police, who refused to listen to me explain what had happened.

Subsequently, the Yale Administration and the Yale Campus Police released grossly wrongful and defamatory public statements about me.

Thank you for spending this time with me.

My Emails From the February 24th, 2018 Incident at Yale That Began the Living or Napping While Black Hate Crime Hoax

Below please find my emails from the February 24th, 2018 Incident at Yale that began the nightmare that became the Living or Napping While Black Hate Crime Hoax. As you will be able to tell from reading the emails, I did absolutely nothing wrong. In fact, I was the person who was terrorized in my own home, my isolated dorm room, on the evening of February 24th, 2018. You will also be able to see why the Yale Housing Managers told me that not only had I done nothing wrong, but that I was the only person involved who had done nothing wrong. Also, the Yale Housing Managers told me that they were extremely displeased with the way that the Hall of Graduate Studies Coordinators had handled the situation, and they told me that the Coordinators would be reprimanded for their wrongful behavior. The Yale Housing Managers told me to return to my dissertation, and not to give the incident another thought. They told me that they would deal with all of the other students involved, including the students who had terrorized me in my isolated dorm room that evening. I was trapped in my dorm room for hours, terrified, and unable to leave. I did not call the Yale Campus Police again, because I was terrified, justifiably, in retrospect, of further retaliation. This is why I chose to send an email to the Resident Coordinators instead. They did not respond to my email for many hours, as you can see from the emails below. The Resident Coordinators never spoke to me that evening, even though they seemingly spoke to everyone else involved, nor did the Yale Campus Police come to speak to me, as they said that they would. It seems, from the emails below, that the Resident Coordinators may even have been present for the event in the 12th floor common room that evening, which means that they would have been present when I was being terrorized in my dorm room. I believe now that they may have even participated in terrorizing me in my dorm room that evening.

Here is the YouTube Channel video wherein I read the emails: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPLek1-d-t0

Here are the emails:

To the HGS Resident Coordinators,

I’m so sorry guys. But, I have to ask that whichever persons or organization were holding an event in the common room on the 12th floor of the tower tonight, please don’t allow them to hold events in there any longer.

Their behavior this evening was disgusting.

I had an unfortunate experience. I have been especially cognizant of my personal safety with respect to access to my room in HGS (1201), since an HGS staff member was entering my room unauthorized and hanging out by my room on the 12th floor of the tower, waiting for me to enter and leave.

Today, around 5 pm, I think, a man entered the tower elevator behind me. It was just the two of us. I waited for him to use his key to operate the elevator, but it was clear that he was waiting for me to use mine. I felt a bit uncomfortable, but I went ahead and used my key and pressed 12 for my floor. Then, I asked him which floor he needed, and he said 12. Obviously, I became concerned, but I decided not to panic. I thought that maybe he was making use of the common room on the 12th floor, the only other room on the 12th floor, of course.

But, when we exited the elevator, I waited a moment before entering my room, so that he could make his way into the common room, but he didn’t. He just stood there like he was waiting for me to enter my room. Obviously, I wasn’t going to enter my room. I didn’t panic. I walked down the steps to the 11th floor, I went into the side stairway, and I walked slowly back up to the 12th floor.

From the side stairway, I entered the common room. There was no one in there, so clearly it was not being used. I hoped that the man had left.

I exited the common room, and I didn’t see him on the landing, so I approached my door, but then he called out to me — he was on the landing between the 12th and 11th floors. He asked me where the common room was.

I told him that no one was in there, and that he needed to be a resident and have a key to get in there, and that if he wasn’t supposed to be there that he needed to leave, because he was making me very nervous. He told me that he was a student. I told him it didn’t matter — you can’t get into the common room w/o a key and to please leave.

I entered my room and called the Yale police and told them what happened. I told them that I wasn’t sure if I really needed their assistance or no, but they said that they would stop by, just in case.

I assume that the police came by and spoke with whomever ended up using the common room, because a group of persons, shortly thereafter, stood outside my door, fake laughing uproariously and saying, Are we making you nervous, oh hell no, she’s going to call the cops on us!

I can only assume that these were the people who had arranged to use the common room this late afternoon.

I find their behavior egregiously unacceptable, and I ask you to not allow them to use the common room any longer.

I cannot even believe that they would do what they did, and I refuse to apologize for being concerned for my personal safety.

Thank you for reading this email and for your attention to this matter.

All best,
Sarah Braasch

Good evening Sarah,
Thank you for bringing this serious issue to our attention.

We managed to speak to the policemen that came in, the suspicious character looking for the common room (who, by the way, was a student), and the resident that invited him.

There will be a Housing Office meeting happening at HGS on Thursday, the 1st of March, at 7pm. The meeting will be an info session for next semester’s housing plans, but there will be two of the housing office managers (cc’d in this email) present. We would encourage you to come and share what happened then so that we can find a way forward.

Regards,

Grant & Esther

Hi Sarah,
I’m so terribly sorry to hear of this incident. Please let’s meet before Thursday to discuss. I don’t think this can wait that long. Let me know your availability for Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday.

Thanks,

Hi Beth,

I could pop by your office (are you still in Helen Hadley Hall?) on Monday afternoon around 230ish or anytime thereafter. Thanks so much for taking this seriously.

I have no way of knowing if it’s the same people, but people hold noisy late night parties in 1200 not infrequently, and I usually try to just ignore them. We might as well go ahead and address that issue at the same time. I was planning on coming on Thursday anyway, to discuss my plans for next year.

It’s my fault. I should have just gotten out of the elevator to begin with, but I’m always so afraid of hurting others’ feelings that I put myself in bad situations.

Thanks so much.

Best,
Sarah

Hi everybody,

The people who held the party last night (I assume that this was them.) left all of their trash thrown everywhere on the 11th floor landing, and the entire hallway reeks to high heaven. This is also not an uncommon occurrence, especially on the weekends.

Can we please implement a throw out your own trash policy, instead of leaving it in the hallway for the nearby residents to enjoy over the weekend each weekend?

Thanks so much. Another item for discussion on Thursday.

Best,
Sarah
