Bret Weinstein Biography

Bret Weinstein is one of the most popular and richest American biologist who was born on February 21, 1969 in Los Angeles, California, United States. Bret Samuel Weinstein/’ W aI n s T A n (born on 21 February 1969) is an American biologist and evolutionary theorist who was brought to national attention following The 2017 Evergreen State College protests. The Weinsteins and their twin brother Eric Weinstein coined the term Intellectual Dark Web to describe an online community of journalists.

On May 17, 2017, students protests were disruptive on campus and called for modifications to the college. The protests were accompanied by accusations of intolerance and racism and threats. They also have brought the attention of national media to Evergreen which sparked further debate on the right to free speech on campuses. In the course of protests, there was a confrontation among protesters as well as Weinstein.

Weinstein describes himself as a political progressive and left-libertarian. He appeared before the U.S. House Oversight Committee on May 22, 2018, to discuss free speech on college campuses.

In June 2019, Weinstein began the DarkHorse Podcast.

In a suit filed against the college through a lawsuit filed by Weinstein as well as his spouse Heather Heying, Weinstein said the president of the college did not request law enforcement to disperse protesters. Weinstein claimed that the campus police told him they were unable to help him and advised the student to remain off the campus. Weinstein was then able to hold the biology course in a park that was open to the public. In September of 2017 there was a settlement. Weinstein and Heying left and received $500,000 after they had sought $3.8 millions in compensation.

Weinstein was an instructor of biological sciences of biology at Evergreen State College in Washington. The year 2002 was the time he released The Reserve Capacity Hypothesis that suggested that the differences in telomeric structure between laboratory mice and humans has caused scientists to overlook the dangers that new drugs can pose to humans in the form of liver disease, heart disease and the resulting organ failure.

Weinstein began his undergraduate studies at University of Pennsylvania. In his freshman year, Weinstein wrote a letter to the newspaper of the school condemning sexual harassment of strippers during the Zeta Beta Tau fraternity party. After experiencing harassment in response to writing the article, Weinstein was transferred to University of California, Santa Cruz and completed his degree as an undergraduate. The year 2009 was the year that Weinstein earned his PhD from Michigan’s University of Michigan.

In March 2017 he wrote a letter to Evergreen faculty, objecting to a change in the college’s decades-old tradition of observing a “Day of Absence” during which minority students and faculty would voluntarily stay home from campus to highlight their contributions to the college. The announced change would flip the traditional event, asking white participants to attend an off-campus program while the on-campus program was designated for participating people of color. Weinstein said this established a dangerous precedent.
