New page

In 2003, at a 'teach-in' on the Iraqi conflict, Nicholas De Genova, a Columbia University assistant professor of anthropology called for "a million Mogadishus." He was referring to the slaughter of 18 U.S. soldiers in Somolia in 1993. Columbia Historian Eric Foner called De Geneova's "idiotic." His remarks were picked up by the press as an example of rampant leftism and anti-Americanism on Columbia's campus.

It was a low point for both public discourse about the war in Iraq and for Columbia.
