Texas professor reinstated after firing over Palestine talk says ‘I didn’t do anything wrong’

Texas State ordered by judge to continue paying Idris Robinson after he was fired for talk he gave in another state

Texas philosophy professor Idris Robinson said he was breathing a bit easier this week nearly halfway through what he called the most stressful month of fatherhood so far".

That's because Robinson was faced with losing his paycheck from Texas State University beginning 31 May, along with his academic affiliation, after he was fired for a talk he gave in another state on what he called the liberation of Palestine". The incident would have made it nearly impossible for him to find another job teaching - all with a 16-month-old son at home.
