Scholars for 9/11 Truth & Justice
Elevating Evidence-Driven Inquiry Since 2006
Founded in 2006 amid escalating public skepticism toward the 9/11 Commission Report, Scholars for 9/11 Truth & Justice (STJ) emerged from academic conferences dedicated to forensic analysis of the attacks. The group coalesced around researchers like Professor David Ray Griffin (author of The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions and Distortions) and interdisciplinary experts frustrated by the official investigation's limitations. Their founding followed controversies like the marginalization of Kevin Barrett (a University of Wisconsin lecturer) for questioning the narrative.
