Mart\u00ednez is of Latina heritage and is both a first-generation college student and a first-generation U.S. citizen (Mart\u00ednez, 2016). Academically, she was a dedicated and outstanding student, with the qualifications to back it up. In addition to juggling at least two jobs, she successfully maintained her status as a full-time student and consistently made the Dean's List (Mart\u00ednez, 2016). By her third year, Martinez had an impressive record of achievements, including presenting at national conferences, writing a piece published in a peer-reviewed journal, and securing federal funding for a research project on female youth empowerment (Mart\u00ednez, 2016). In 2016, she began sharing her passions in blog posts regarding poetry, art, social justice, and education (Mart\u00ednez, 2016), and it was a blog post that led to widespread interest in the alleged plagiarism incident at the center of this case.\r\n<h2><strong>An Accusation of Plagiarism in Front of the Class\r\n<\/strong><\/h2>\r\nThe incident between Tiffany Martinez and her professor occurred directly in the lecture hall. In an interview on the Chronicle.com, (Zamudio-Suarez, 2016), Martinez recounts her story as she vividly remembers the day her academic career changed dramatically. It all began in her sociology senior seminar, a class reserved for students nearing the end of their degree. Martinez had been absent the previous week, therefore receiving her paper a week late; she was one of two individuals receiving their assignment that day.\r\n\r\nMartinez recounts that she was called to the front of the class, and then had a discussion with the professor going over her paper. The first comment from the professor was \u201cthis is not your language\u201d (Zamudio-Suarez, 2016). Another comment on the paper reads, \u201cplease go back and indicate where you cut and paste\u201d (Zamudio-Suarez, 2016). Martinez\u2019s biggest issue was with the way the professor handled the situation. She stated \u201cI would prefer it to be a one-on-one conversation so we can discuss it and not have it in front of my peers\u201d (Zamudio-Suarez, 2016). Feeling abashed by the professor's decision to hold this discussion within earshot of the whole class, Martinez said she felt the professor handled the situation incorrectly: \u201cperhaps she didn\u2019t understand how much what she was saying affected me\u201d(Zamudio-Suarez, 2016). The embarrassment served to Martinez came as a surprise to her; she defended herself, maintaining that she didn\u2019t plagiarize the paper and that the professor had taken a stab at her identity rather than analyzing her work. From Martinez\u2019s point of view, the professor was biased toward her because of her Latina identity and couldn\u2019t fathom the fact that Martinez did in fact write her own paper. The word that set the professor off was \u201chence\u201d (Gagosz, 2016). \u201cHence\u201d is a fairly common word in the academic world, but according to the professor, this was simply not in Martinez\u2019s vocabulary. This leads to the reason we are actually aware of this case, the blog post turned viral made by Martinez titled \u201cAcademia, Love Me Back\u201d (Mart\u00ednez, 2016).\r\n<h2><strong>Exploring Different Perspectives<\/strong><\/h2>\r\nMart\u00ednez\u2019s blog post instantly became viral, and the hashtag\u00a0 \u201c#hence\u201d started to become a trend. To Mart\u00ednez, this incident was more than a simple case of potential plagiarism, rather it was a form of racist microaggression that she refused to ignore. Unfortunately, this wasn\u2019t the only instance of racism she had encountered on campus. She recalls an experience from her time as a Resident Assistant when a student confused her for a custodian simply because she was speaking Spanish on the phone with her mother (Gagosz, 2016).\r\n\r\nAlthough she did not set out for the post to go viral, there was a clear reason it resonated so widely. Moreover, Mart\u00ednez reflects on the sense of defeat she experienced upon realizing that her professor, someone she admired for guidance and support, was so quick to accuse her of something so uncharacteristic, as she states: \u201cIt was such a weird moment for me, of just like it finally happened, someone doesn\u2019t believe that I can be this scholarly or I can be an academic\u201d (Lemme tell you somethin\u2019, 2016).\r\n\r\nThe blog post quickly gained traction, creating an upset within the university, where a newly established group called \u201cStand Up Suffolk\u201d organized rallies (Gagosz, 2016). The support Mart\u00ednez received stretched far out of the university as Herman Beavers, a Professor of English and African Studies at the University of Pennsylvania, wrote to acting president Maria Kelly, calling for transparency regarding misconduct, mentioning that \u201cthe bigotry of one faculty member in no way diminishes [Mart\u00ednez\u2019s] accomplishments or her prospects\u201d (Journal, 2016).\r\n\r\nThe letter, which received more than 277 signatures, also expressed disapproval with how the potential plagiarism incident was handled, describing that the public shaming was both unwarranted and unnecessary (Journal, 2016). On October 28, 2016, an email was sent out from Suffolk\u2019s acting president Marisa Kelly, where stated that a mistake was made and that the university was taking the issue seriously by conducting investigations. The email continued to echo the importance of diversity stating that \u201cSuffolk University is deeply committed to fostering an inclusive environment. Every student and every member of our community should feel respected\u201d (Kelly &amp; Royo, 2016).\r\n\r\nKelly claimed that prejudice is common on college campuses and that faculty and staff need to be supported to understand and respect students\u2019 diversity (The Christian Science Monitor, 2011). Also Kelly emphasized in the Christian Science Monitor (2011), that the Martinez incident was proof of the seriousness of the situation. She stated that there were many events organized at the university that encourage professors and students to respect each other and help reduce discrimination, and that they were working specifically on micro-aggressions and were training faculty members to understand the concerns of minority groups (The Christian Science Monitor, 2011).\r\n\r\nThe community of supporters began to expand, as students became inspired by Mart\u00ednez to share their shared experience of racism in academia. Another Suffolk University student, Sheikh Nasher, also voiced his experience with racism within the University stating: \u201cI actually know Tiffany Mart\u00ednez, I admire the work she does. The incident that took place with her is not a new thing, it happens everywhere in a campus. I have experienced it myself. There was an incident where I was told to \u2018get deported\u2019 [last year]\u201d (Gagosz, 2016).\r\n\r\nIn her post about the incident, Mart\u00ednez wrote that \u201cThe entire field of academia is broken and erases the narratives of people like me. We all have work to do to fix the lack of diversity and understanding among marginalized communities. We all have work to do\u201d (Mart\u00ednez, 2016).\r\n\r\nThe interaction between Mart\u00ednez and her professor clearly sparked a wave of frustration and a call for change, with many backing her decision to bring her issue to light. However, other reactions raised alternative perspectives on this case. A blog called \u201cScholars and Rogues\u201d explains the frustration of not knowing what really happened, and that the story is only told from one point of view. Furthermore, the blog points out that when Mart\u00ednez introduces the story by highlighting the unfair bias faced by students like her, it inherently shapes the perspective and narrative to suggest that the professor was racist, even without her explicitly stating it, leading readers into the idea that this is not a case about false plagiarism, but about racial biases. The blog suggests that Mart\u00ednez should have let the readers form their own opinion regarding the case, rather than setting it up in such a way. The blog further states that \u201cMart\u00ednez [should have] devoted more energy to presenting us with facts we can consider and less time indulging in emotional indignation\u201d (Smith, 2016).\r\n\r\nFor instance, a significant question that sparked curiosity was why the teacher singled out Mart\u00ednez among all the students present. While this detail was not addressed in Mart\u00ednez's initial blog post, she revealed in an interview with the <em>Chronicle of Higher Education<\/em> that she was absent from the class before, when the professor initially handed the papers back (Zamudio-Suarez, 2016). This is important to mention because it suggests that Mart\u00ednez was not singled out; rather, it was simply due to her absence from the class when the teacher chose to return the papers.\r\n\r\nAnother perspective to consider is that of the other students. Some students were shocked to read such insinuating claims regarding their professor. One student showed support towards the professor, saying, \u201cI think our professor is a good person. She means well\u201d (Zamudio-Suarez, 2016). Another claimed that the class had \u201ctalked about Black Lives Matter and the professor seemed in full support of Black lives and the movement so I don\u2019t think she\u2019s racist\u201d (Gagosz, 2016). Two other students explained in an interview that similarly to Mart\u00ednez, they received critiques questioning the choice of language in their papers (Gagosz, 2016). Additionally, several students also explained that the professor provided both negative and positive remarks on student writing throughout the class, where Mart\u00ednez was absent (Gagosz, 2016).\r\n<h2><strong>Next Steps In Life<\/strong><\/h2>\r\nAfter graduating from Suffolk and earning her MA from Columbia University, Mart\u00ednez was admitted to New York University\u2019s Teaching &amp; Learning PhD program, with a focus on Urban Communities. Her goal has been improving the U.S. public school system to better support marginalized youth. Her research explores race, gender, and language learning with a strong emphasis on inclusive, multilingual education. Combining theory and practice, she has worked with nonprofits and public schools in Boston and New York City to develop inclusive, culturally responsive curriculum.
