    The emails released last week revealed a close relationship between Epstein and Summers. In an March 2019 exchange, they corresponded about a woman Summers was interested in.

    I know that it’s not the point of this article, and it’s fine, but that is such a gentle way to put the conversation he had.

    While already being married, he and at the time known sex criminal Epstein had a conversation where he strategized how to leverage the mentoring relationship another professional wanted with him into sex with her, all the while both used a racist nickname for her.

    He shouldn’t still be teaching. He can’t be trusted with power over anyone.
