Meet Rahim Thawer — the anti-Charlie Kirk University of Alabama professor, conducting doctoral research on 'anti-racist, queer-affirming psychoanalytic frameworks'

In April 2024, Rahim Thawer, a "racialized,” anti-Zionist, "queer" Muslim from Canada, was accepted into the University of Alabama's Doctor of Social Work (DSW) program. Thawer shared a graphic showing his admission letter and offer letter for a three-year teaching contract, which indicated that out of 188 applicants, only 20 were admitted to the university's social work doctoral program.
