If you can't name even three it's not fair to say that at all. The state of ideological play at universities 70 years ago is rarely telling about the same unis today AFAIK the only bats still going for Pound want to teach him despite his politics, not because of them

It is only an open question for people who have never taken an introductory ethics course. I will not reply to the rest of this tiresome bloviation.

The people for whom it's an open question are far above an introductory ethics course in their studies of Kant. Also above my pay grade, so can't easily dismiss their arguments.

I mean this is a topic of considerable debate!

This is completely moronic. Every day students learn about Kantianism without Kant's views on race filtering in. I taught deontology the other day and race didn't even factor in. Not because I'm being intellectually negligent but because it isn't conceptually intertwined.

I'm sure the argument is that his racist views are subtly "embedded" in everything he's ever written.

I also find Kant's inclusion on this list odd, so I have to ask: which parts of Kant's philosophical system do you have in mind here, and what reasons do we have for thinking that these parts are essentially bound-up with or undergirded by his views on race?

Aristotle would be a better example because his views on natural slaves are pretty intertwined in his Politics, a work that continues to be taught. But with more recent thinkers with racist views, those views are generally pretty detachable from what we care about.
