华盛顿4月23日(路透社)——特朗普政府周四表示,已就一个亲巴勒斯坦的教育者团体启动针对纽约市教育局的民权调查。

美国教育部表示,已启动第六编调查。《民权法案》第六编明确禁止任何接受联邦财政援助的项目或活动基于种族、肤色和民族起源进行歧视。

特朗普政府提及“纽约巴勒斯坦教育工作者”团体时称,“一群纽约市教育局员工组织了一系列以‘巴勒斯坦、犹太复国主义与抵抗’为主题的教学研讨会”。

“纽约巴勒斯坦教育工作者”团体自称是“公立学校教育工作者组成的团体,致力于在我们的学校系统乃至整个社会中为巴勒斯坦解放而战”,通过与社区组织合作并动员教育工作者开展行动。

该团体的社交媒体账号表示,教育工作者拥有学术自由和言论自由的权利,可就巴勒斯坦权利问题开展教学,并表示“任何形式的声援都不应仅因表达对巴勒斯坦的支持而受到处分或审查”。

美国教育部在一份声明中表示,联邦调查将判定纽约市教育局是否歧视犹太学生,并补充称该局收到了有关针对犹太学生可能存在“敌意环境”的投诉。

纽约市市长佐赫兰·曼达尼曾表达亲巴勒斯坦立场,并谴责反犹太主义和伊斯兰恐惧症。

特朗普政府还利用《民权法案》第六编针对多元化、公平性与包容性项目,此前特朗普曾在竞选活动中反对企业和学校的多元化公平包容举措。

特朗普曾威胁冻结联邦资金,并试图驱逐参与反对美国盟友以色列袭击加沙的亲巴勒斯坦运动的外国学生,以此打击学校和大学。

特朗普政府声称,此类运动及其抗议者是反犹太主义者,并支持哈马斯和真主党等极端组织。

包括一些犹太团体在内的活动人士表示,特朗普错误地将对以色列袭击加沙及其占领巴勒斯坦领土的批评等同于反犹太主义,将倡导巴勒斯坦权利等同于支持极端主义。

人权倡导者对特朗普政府的行动提出了言论自由、正当程序和学术自由方面的担忧,这些行动已遭遇司法阻碍。

  • Summary
  • Trump administration has cracked down on pro-Palestinian groups
  • US Education Department says it is probing NYC DOE
  • NYC DOE says it is not connected to group noted in federal announcement

WASHINGTON, April 23 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration said on Thursday it launched a civil rights probe into New York City’s Department of Education over a pro-Palestinian group of educators.

A spokesperson for the New York City Department of Education said it was reviewing the notice it received from the federal Education Department. The group referenced by the Trump administration is not connected to New York City Public Schools, the spokesperson said.

The U.S. Education Department said it launched a Title VI probe. Title VI of the Civil Rights Act specifically prohibits any program or activity that receives federal financial aid from discriminating based on race, color and national origin.

The Trump administration, referring to the group NYC Educators for Palestine, said that “a group of NYCDOE employees organized a series of teaching seminars focused on ‘Palestine, Zionism, and Resistance.’”

The NYC Educators for Palestine group says it is a group of “public school educators committed to fighting for Palestinian liberation in our school system, and society at large” by working with community organizations and mobilizing educators.

The group’s social media says educators have the right to academic freedom and freedom of speech to teach about Palestinian rights, saying “no forms of solidarity should be responded to with discipline or censorship solely due to their expressions in support of Palestine.”

The federal probe will determine whether the New York City Department of Education discriminated against Jewish students, the federal Education Department said in a statement, adding it received complaints about a potential creation of a “hostile environment” towards Jewish students.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has voiced pro-Palestinian views and condemned both antisemitism and Islamophobia.

The Trump administration has also targeted diversity, equity and inclusion programs using Title VI of the Civil Rights Act after Trump campaigned against DEI measures in businesses and schools.

Trump has cracked down on schools and universities by threatening to freeze federal funding and attempting to deport foreign students over pro-Palestinian movements against U.S. ally Israel’s assault on Gaza.

The Trump administration has alleged that such movements and their protesters are antisemitic and support extremist groups like Hamas and Hezbollah.

Activists, including some Jewish groups, say Trump wrongly conflates criticism of Israel’s assault on Gaza and its occupation of Palestinian territories with antisemitism, and advocacy for Palestinian rights with support for extremism.

Rights advocates have raised free speech, due process and academic freedom concerns over the Trump administration’s actions, which have faced judicial roadblocks.
