Uncovering Racist Student Networks at UT

Attention: This website is now defunct. The autonomous student media website has transitioned over to austinautonomedia.noblogs.org. You can find this post and all our other old posts on our new site.

Autonomous Student Media: Gestures Towards the Ungovernable

[CW: Racism, anti-semitism, Nazi imagery]

Our organization recently received a tip about a facebook group called UT Austin Hot Takes, which had recently been taken over by admins posting and enabling white supremacist content. As we investigated the group and its members, we stumbled onto information that overlapped with an ongoing investigation we had been conducting into some fascists & reactionaries who had showed up in May to disrupt RSF’s People’s Trial of the rapist professor Robert Reese. Below we’ve compiled the information we have gathered. We uncovered a larger network of connections that included outright Neo-Nazis, neo-confederates, and the racists of the Young Conservatives of Texas.

Blackshirt Alert! Far-right TPUSA Invades UT

Autonomous Student Media: Gestures Towards the Ungovernable

Over the past semester, we have been alerted to the occasional presence of an individual (always the same one) tabling for an organization called Turning Point USA–you may have seen them around with their big posters reading “socialism sucks” “free speech zone” and “I <3 Capitalism.” Upon investigation we discovered they were not a Registered Student Organization–the person tabling isn’t even a student–and so technically have no right to be on campus. Yet we know from recent history that Dean of Students doesn’t really care about that unless you’re a leftist organization! We decided to do some more sleuthing, and we’ve found some interesting information.

UT Employs White Supremacists!

Edit: 9/4
1. Dustin is still on facebook just under a different name–let him know how you feel about his beliefs: https://www.facebook.com/hamby.dustin
2. Dustin’s boyfriend, Connor Graham, is also an employee at UT as an administrative assistant. He shares many of Dustin’s atrocious views. His information has been added to this post. His profile can be found at: https://www.facebook.com/cgrahamx
3. We’ve been contacted and informed that former co-workers of Dustin’s previously informed UT that Dustin and Connor were potential threats to UT students. Clearly, the administration has heard these concerns and doesn’t give a shit–and they won’t until they are faced with mass public opposition!

Dustin Ray Hamby is an employee of UT. He’s a vocal white supremacist who participated in the Neo-Nazi “White Lives Matter” rally back in November of 2016. After more local fascists were exposed, Dustin upped his security and removed more of his information–deleting/hiding social media accounts and address. The address listed below is his last known address as of 2016, and may be inaccurate. However, he still works at UT–and was recently promoted to cook!
