Rutgers Professor Moves Classes Online, Plans Year in Europe After Threats

He says threats, including doxing, following conservative media attention forced a switch to teaching from Europe.

Overview

  • Mark Bray told students he received another death threat and a separate threat naming his home address, and he said the university and authorities were notified.
  • His in-person courses were canceled for the semester, with lectures moved online to accommodate the Europe–New Jersey time difference.
  • A Turning Point USA chapter petition seeks his removal and refers to him as "Dr. Antifa," citing his past support for militant anti-fascism.
  • Rutgers said it is aware of the petition and Bray’s message to students and is gathering information about the situation.
  • Right-leaning commentators, including Andy Ngo, characterize Bray as financing international Antifa activity, a claim reported without independent corroboration.
