Â鶹´«Ã½IOS

The University of California, Davis, maintains several accounts on the social media platform X. In May, activist Beth Bourne replied to a post by UC Davis’s main X account with commentary on gender and sex. The post was reshared by the UC Davis DEI Division’s X account, and other X users responded to the same post with a video showing a confrontation between Bourne and pro-Palestinian protesters in which Bourne expressed her views on transgender women. Subsequently, Bourne discovered the DEI Division’s X account had blocked her, apparently based on disapproval of her views. On June 21, Â鶹´«Ã½IOS wrote to UC Davis calling on the school to immediately unblock Bourne from viewing and commenting on the DEI Division’s X account. 

On June 28, UC Davis confirmed the DEI Division unblocked Bourne from its X account.
