Responding to a shameful attempt to cancel respected Grove City College professor and American Spectator contributor Paul Kengor.

Appropriating Black Lives Matter rhetoric to make bogus allegations of racism, three white Grove City College graduates recently attempted to enlist social media to destroy the reputation of Paul Kengor, a popular professor at the college. Though the female attackers — who recently added the moniker “disgruntled leftist and LGBTQ activist” to their Twitter display names — quickly rescinded their demands that Kengor “retire or resign” because of his “white nationalist rhetoric,” the damage to his reputation is significant.

A longtime contributor to The American SpectatorPaul Kengor is the most well-known scholar on the Grove City College campus. Beloved by students and with a wide public following, Kengor is the author of several New York Times best-selling books, including, most recently, A Pope and a President: John Paul II, Ronald Reagan and the Extraordinary Untold Story of the 20th Century. A frequent speaker at youth conferences, including Young Americans for Freedom, and an oft-invited guest to do readings at the Reagan Ranch, Kengor has a reputation for kindness, goodness, and humility.

Dr. John Zmirak, a senior editor at The Stream, recently told a reporter at Church Militant that Kengor is “a model scholar and educator. He is patient, humble, scrupulously fair and single-mindedly devoted to advancing freedom for every human being as the image of God. He is a worthy disciple of St. John Paul II, a man devoted to liberty, virtue and real human rights.”
