NYU Deletes Extremist Mamdani Housing Czar’s Information From Website As Cea Weaver Faces ‘Harassment’ Over Calls To ‘Impoverish the White Middle Class’

 Washington Free Beacon  

"Weaver burst into tears when reporters asked her about her claim that ‘homeownership is racist’—and the fact that her mom owns a $1.6 million house"

"New York University has taken down the page for a class taught by New York City mayor Zohran Mamdani’s (D.) housing czar, Cea Weaver, after Weaver’s anti-white social media posts and communist views resurfaced this month. An NYU professor who has worked with Weaver told the Washington Free Beacon the school deleted Weaver’s information to protect her from "harassment."

"Gianpaolo Baiocchi, a professor of sociology who founded the university’s Urban Democracy Lab, said NYU "took her page down to protect her privacy" upon learning "of the harassment she was facing." Baiocchi, who like Weaver was named to Mamdani’s transition team late last year, was arrested for participating in a pro-Hamas encampment at the university in the spring of 2024.

"Baiocchi did not specify the content of the "harassment" Weaver faced, but he may have had in mind an incident last week when reporters confronted Weaver about her past statements that included denouncing private property as a "weapon of white supremacy," calling to "impoverish the *white* middle class," and arguing that "homeownership is racist." Weaver burst into tears when reporters asked how she could square her attacks against homeowners with the fact that her own mother owns a $1.6 million property in Nashville.

"Weaver taught "Community Organizing + Advocacy Skills," a one-credit class offered through the university’s Gallatin School of Individualized Study, during the fall of 2025. NYU wiped the course page from its website last week as Weaver’s radical views came to light, though archived versions remain available." . . . More...
