- Rachel Fulton Brown is an Associate Professor of Medieval History, Fundamentals, and the College at the University of Chicago. Fulton Brown has authored a variety of texts on the topic of Christian studies and the Middle Ages, and a 2019 book chronicling her friendship with far-right figure Milo Yiannopoulos through Yiannopoulos's publishing imprint, Dangerous Books. Fulton Brown has also written for Breitbart. In December 2020, United States president Donald Trump announced an intent to appoint Fulton Brown to the Cultural Property Advisory Committee, which the official Whitehouse website described as a "key administration post".
Comments and blog entries published by Fulton Brown gained notable attention in academia as part of a broader discussion regarding white nationalism and medieval studies. For example, her piece "Three Cheers for White Men," a humorous appreciation of women's rights in the western traditions of individual dignity, chivalry, and women's suffrage, drew criticism from journalists who insisted it must have racist intent since the title includes the term, "White." As described by The New York Times:
The idea of medieval studies as a haven for white nationalist ideas gained ground when Rachel Fulton Brown, an associate professor of medieval history at the University of Chicago, began feuding with Dorothy Kim, an assistant professor of medieval English literature at Brandeis, after Dr. Kim, writing on Facebook, highlighted an old blog post of Dr. Fulton Brown’s titled "Three Cheers for White Men," calling it an example of "medievalists upholding white supremacy."
The article caused a furor, as scholars accused colleagues of providing screenshots of private Facebook conversations and surreptitious recordings of conference sessions to Mr. Yiannopoulos.
Fulton Brown subsequently cited Vox Day, a far-right activist, and promoted a conspiracy theory that the Christchurch mosque shootings may have been a false flag operation. Fulton Brown has often used her tenured status and academic platform to defend Yiannopoloulos, referring to his critics, for example, as "spineless cunts".
