A white male professor at the University of New Hampshire has been removed from the classroom after pretending to be a conservative Black woman on Twitter.
Craig Chapman, who teaches chemistry, posed as a Black woman under the username The Science Femme (@Piney_the), according to The Daily Beast.
As the conservative Science Femme, Chapman spouted off against the left, the transgender movement, and even Black people to his more than 13,000 followers.
In June, Chapman boasted of removing “my dept’s woke statement on recent social unrest.” And The Science Femme called Black Lives Matter a “toxic ideology that cannot be given an inch,” according to student newspaper The New Hampshire.
During one exchange with another user, Chapman wrote, “You know I’m a woman of color, right? Racist?”
In other posts, Chapman, as Science Femme, claimed to “an immigrant woman of color who grew up in poverty, sleeping on a dirt floor.”
Chapman inadvertently revealed his true identity after he shared a photo of his brother’s brewery, Pinelands Brewing in New Jersey, on both his real Twitter page and the Science Femme account.
Eagle-eyed Twitter sleuths noticed the photo and the tweets were nearly identical on both Twitter handles.
UNH issued a statement to The Daily Beast after Chapman’s hoax was revealed.
“UNH was recently made aware of allegations on social media about a member of its faculty. We are deeply troubled by what we’ve learned so far and immediately launched an investigation. The employee at the center of allegations on social media is on leave and not in the classroom. In order to protect the integrity of the ongoing investigation the university is unable to comment further.”
Chapman is the latest Caucasian to be exposed for faking their race.
Last month, Black Lives Matter organizer Satchuel Cole, who is Caucasian, admitted she pretended to be a Black woman for years.
Jessica Krug, a white professor of African American studies, also revealed she posed as a Black woman for years.
And Shaun King, a Caucasian Twitter activist who pretends to be Black, was exposed as a white man by his own family.
