Letâs bring it down to the real world. I hired two very interesting people:
1) a well-considered hand surgeon who wanted part-time work. He was so rude to âmyâ staff that I admonished him, then fired him. Months later, the SWAT team confronted him at his girlfriendâs place and he was killed.
and
2) Tony Shiu, whom I hired and enjoyed working with for many months until he decided to leave for his own practice. Best of luck to you, Tony. Then, a couple of years later, he asked to be rehired. The staff remembered him fondly, and we put the paperwork in gear. The day before I signed him in, my friend in Med-Legal told me not to, but not why.

Itâs a complex story. But, at the heart of it was a liar. There are many similar stories (the non-doctor that practiced for decades, etc).
The substance of the story (besides his sad fate), though, is how Cambridge didnât bother when faced with glaring falsehoods.
Trying to make it "they harassed him because he's black" is intentionally missing the point that he was a liar and plagiarized.
I come in peace....
This story is, to me, one of those stories wherein farce becomes tragedy.
Indeed, a very complex story.
He lied, a lot...because the pervasive culture of cultivated-victimhood looked like an opportunity.
Cambridge University, in the full flush of DEI-mania, either overlooked or chose to ignore some of the glaring holes in his backstory, because...DEI points for hiring from the cultivated pool of champion victims.

And here we are.
Truth always wiggles its way from the darkness into the light.
One of the saddest stories I have heard this year.
I think we can anticipate more like this emerging from academia.
Taylor Snider, a trans woman and former sex worker, says Graham was a former client. She says Grahamâs team threatened her to prevent her from going public in 2020 and calls him the âleader of the circusâ when it comes to hypocritical homophobia and transphobia coming from the government. She talks in detail about the sexual exchange between her and Graham, reveals that sheâs had other âsitting members of Congressâ as clients, and speaks about the broader issue of down-low conservative men in American politics who are âactively working to push anti-LGBT legislation.â
