If your opinion of Cofnas is based mainly on what other people have said about him, or based on quotations from things he's written, I'd highly recommend you:

- read this paper: https://doi.org/10.1080/09515089.2019.1697803

- read the Harvard data behind the famous "0.7%" quote

- watch his interview with David Starkey

I do not believe Cofnas is racist or that his exposure of Arday was motivated by racial animus.

But, even if it were, he still did a service to the public by exposing the governance failures at Cambridge.
