New Prof at Berklee College of Music Allegedly Demanded Jews ‘Apologize’ for ‘Oppressing’ Black People

“All these so-called Jews mad, because how dare I make them face the facts of their sordid past and present of them oppressing black people”

This sort of thinking seems to be more common than many people realize. It helps no one. It’s just hate.

Campus Reform reports:

Berklee’s new professor demanded Jews ‘apologize’ for ‘oppressing’ black people in 2020: REPORT

The current chair of the Brass Department at the Berklee College of Music in Boston has previously described Jews as oppressive and exploitative.

In 2020, Nicholas Payton posted a video to Instagram in which he critiqued Jewish people for “oppressing” and “exploiting” black people, telling Jews to “apologize” and “atone,” as noted by The Washington Free Beacon.

The college announced in September that Payton would be the new chair of the school’s Brass Department.

“We are looking forward to Nicholas Payton’s contribution to the Berklee community by engaging faculty, supporting students, and developing curriculum,” Berklee Dean Sean Skeete said at the time. “I believe his experience as a world-class artist and educator will further advance Berklee’s reputation as a leader in arts education.”

“It’s an honor to be appointed chair of brass at the preeminent modern music college of the world,” Payton stated in the school’s announcement.

The college also described Payton’s background and music interests, but did not acknowledge that Payton has a history of making anti-Jewish statements.

“All these so-called Jews mad, because how dare I make them face the facts of their sordid past and present of them oppressing black people,” Payton said in the 2020 video posted to Instagram.

“So you want to help liberate black people? You want to help free us? Then free us from amongst yourselves,” Payton added. “And don’t be mad ‘cause I shared Torah-carrying Jews. Expose how Jewish people have exploited us. Apologize for it and atone and do better.”

The Washington Free Beacon has also reported that Payton previously shared a post claiming that Jews are “irrefutably associated” with “every historic horror.”

What is a so-called Jew?

    He is probably one of those that believe the true Jews are the “Palestinians” and that those posing as Jews today are really Kazakhs,

      No, he probably believes the “true Jews” are West Africans, or perhaps all sub-Saharan Africans, or something like that.

      And it’s Khazars, not Kazakhs. Some of the Khazars were Jews, but we don’t know how many. Some say the entire nation was Jewish, others say only the nobility. We don’t know what happened to them after the Mongols conquered them, and it’s certainly possible that some of them merged into the Jewish communities arriving from the west, or into those to their south, but not enough of them for DNA evidence to show this.

        The Gentle Grizzly in reply to Milhouse. | April 21, 2025 at 1:31 am

        There is also the theory that the nobility brought in Jewish scholars to establish a foundation for the laws of the area. Some adopted the jewish religion. Later on many of them migrated, we

          Continued. Later on a lot of the migrated west and many of them ended up in Spain. This was allegedly about 600 years ago. My mother’s people were originally from central Asia and settled in Spain. When the inquisition got going, the hightailed it out of there and settled and what is today called Holland. I won’t divulge it here, but my mother’s family had a common surname among the Spanish Jews, and when they got to what is now called Holland, they adopted the closest two that they could find. That is my middle name today.

        I was going from memory. I look up stuff a lot before posting but not every time.

        The point is many antisemites believe the west bank and gazans are the ancient jews who converted while those claiming to be jews were other peoples. Hogwash.

        muhammed grew to hate jews because they refused to convert. It is also likely the case as Jews dispersed they intermarried with local inhabitants. It is clear from DNA analysis though that Ashkenazi Jews are a pretty coherent group.

        I’ve also seen people say that the true Jews are Christians but I agree he doesn’t seem to be one of those.

once considered near juilliard in prestige and quality of their faculty, berklee has apparently descended into woke
proving once again that excellence and reputation seldom survive a descent into woke and racist ignorance

    When was it considered close to Juilliard? I thought the top music school in Beantown was the New England Conservatory.

    Berklee was about jazz and stuff.

      texansamurai in reply to artichoke. | April 21, 2025 at 3:46 pm

      Berklee was about jazz and stuff.
      ____________________________

      correct–for a very long time the three most sought after were: berklee , NTS(Denton) and eastman

      for instrument specific instruction, juilliard has long been ( but perhaps not anymore ) the place

No problem, I want to be free from among him at least, but then they shouldn’t appoint people like him to head departments because it could drive away people who need to be free from among him.

Maybe the rot goes to the top at Berklee, maybe not, but the question comes to mind.

This clown just reinforces my belief that Goodman and Schwerner died for nothing.

The institution (Wow!! That professor needs institutionalized!!!) will whinge and scream that he is entitled to whackademic freedom until they don’t get invited to do any concert programs, then they will whinge and scream about “racism”. Turnabout is fair play, Dr. Brasshole.
