Biography
William Barclay Allen (born 1944) is an author, professor, and political scientist from Fernandina Beach, Florida, United States. Allen has been described as a “conservative black leader in education.”
Allen received a Ph.D. in 1972 from Claremont Graduate University.
In June 1998, Allen became the state of Virginia’s chief executive for public higher education, a position he left after a “tumultuous” 13 months. He submitted his resignation, in large part, so he could continue a romantic relationship with a co-worker.
Allen lobbied in support of the Michigan Civil Rights Initiative, also known as Proposal 2, that would essentially ban affirmative action in the state. He and Carol M. Allen did this through a foundation called “Toward A Fair Michigan.”
From 2018 to 2019, he was a visiting scholar in “conservative thought and policy” at the University of Colorado Boulder.
Allen is a resident scholar and the former chief operating officer of the Center for Urban Renewal and Education, founded by conservative activist Star Parker.
In 2023, Allen appeared on The Ben Shapiro Show, where he discussed The State of Black America, a book that “explores the history and future of black America without the lens of victimization and government dependency,” and how “government destroyed the black family”.
