Professor cleared of Islamophobia says he fears for his safety He blamed ‘scurrilous falsehoods by a handful of illiberal students’

February 14, 2023   

(College Fix) A professor in England who was accused of Islamophobia — but cleared of any wrongdoing by the university — has claimed that he has worn a disguise and carried a weapon due to threats against him and that the investigation ruined his reputation.

Steven Greer is a professor of human rights at University of Bristol Law School who in Feb. 2022 was appointed a visiting research fellow at the Oxford Institute for British Islam, an independent Muslim public policy think tank, according to a law school news release.

University of Bristol investigated Greer (pictured) for a violation of the United Kingdom’s Equality Act after students objected to comments he made during class involving Islam, the Times UK reported Feb. 13., adding he was cleared of all allegations after an investigation over several months.
