BLACK COLLEGE Males Protected Most By Trump Reforms To Obama-Biden Campus Sex Assault Rules, Experts Say
Critics say black men were disproportionately hit by Obama-Biden campus sexual assault rules denying due process and are cheering the Trump administration’s reversal of those policies.
Recently the Department of Education released new Title IX regulations that codify the obligation of schools to investigate claims of sexual assault and harassment. Previous rules under the Obama administration laid the groundwork for what exists today on many campuses: byzantine sexual misconduct disciplinary systems that investigate and punish all manner of sex-related behavior — from sexually suggestive jokes to drunken couplings to forcible rape. Critics say these extra-judicial systems often abandon the presumption of innocence and stack the deck against accused students, denying them basic due process.
“The Trump administration is righting a wrong perpetrated by Joe Biden, who as Vice President spearheaded a Title IX initiative that attempted to overhaul the assumptions on which our legal system is built and undermined the ability of the accused, usually men and often men of color, to get a fair hearing.” Andrew Clark, Rapid Response Director for the Trump campaign, said. “Black men were disproportionately hurt by Biden’s campus sexual assault policy.”
“Biden is the liberal that Malcolm X warned black America about over 50 years ago,” John Burnett, a Republican strategist and African-American activist said. “The Trump administration made criminal justice reform a priority by passing the First Step Act, and currently working on a Second Step Act, while undoing the Title IX campus initiative to curtail due process rights that disproportionately impacted black men. Hence, he is dismantling Biden’s legacy of mass incarceration.”
Supporters of the new Trump-era regulations, which carry the force of law, say they will help both alleged victims along with the accused. “Only by addressing claims of sexual misconduct and providing due process can colleges begin to restore faith in the system” said Jennifer C. Braceras, director of the Independent Women’s Law Center.
