EXCLUSIVE: An educator at a Kansas community college has supported revealing the identities of ICE agents and advocated for public disruption of their activities, according to a review of his social media posts.
Steve Werkmeister, an English teacher at Johnson County Community College in Overland Park, Kansas, uses the alias Steve W on Bluesky, a platform similar to X, known for its left-leaning user base. He describes himself as a “slacker” and “left of the dial.”
Earlier this week, Werkmeister shared a flyer from a leftist advocacy group advising anti-ICE activists to use whistles to interfere with ICE activities. The flyer outlines how blowing whistles can help people “track ICE vehicles,” “rally neighbors to join” and “connect with the group.”

He also shared a post by John Pavlovitz, a known far-left internet activist, encouraging family members to “out” relatives who work for ICE.
“Upstanding community members should expose ICE individuals they know, whether family, neighbors, or acquaintances,” the post reads. “These individuals should be shunned in places respected Americans frequent.”
Werkmeister frequently labels federal immigration enforcement actions as “kidnapping” and seems concerned that he and his family might be targeted by ICE because of their skin color. He expressed to the staff at Johnson County Community College his interest in teaching remotely from abroad.
“I’ve discussed with our department head and college president the possibility of switching to online teaching from a secure location overseas, as my family and I face the risk of government abduction due to our brown skin,” he shared in an Oct. 10 post. “Their responses have been sympathetically vague (lots of meaningless reassurances).”
A Rutgers University professor, Mark Bray, nicknamed “Dr. Antifa,” fled to Spain last week after President Donald Trump labeled Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization.
After an apparent trip overseas, Werkmeister explained his protocol for re-entering the United States.

“Even though our citizenship is beyond question in any normal, legal sense, we’re brown, so I texted my family as soon as we landed and told them I’d text again once we got past customs. If they didn’t get the second text, they’d know we were detained and needed lawyers right away,” he posted in March.
“Then once we were safely at the gate, I realized my anxiety over the culture of violence and predatory aggression in this country had returned,” he said in a follow-up post. “I never once felt threatened abroad. It’s a national shame that the most dangerous part of our trip was coming home to our own country.”
Some of Werkmeister’s ire specifically targets White people.
“It’s tough to live with the knowledge that whenever I go to the store, or to my office, or out for a walk, or anywhere really, packs of white ‘Americans’ are out hunting and kidnapping people who look like me,” he said in a June 26 post. “It’s psychological terrorism for the crime of being born brown in America.”
In an earlier post, he claimed that white people want “brown folks back to the fields.”

“Mediocre white males realized they can’t compete on a more level playing field, so they need to force women back into the kitchen and black and brown folks back to the fields. They’ve had others carry them for 500 years, and they can’t ‘win’ without white privilege.”
“JCCC is an open dialog institution, and the values of Johnson County Community College is something we hold true for all,” a school spokesman told Fox News Digital in a brief statement.
Werkmeister did not return a request for comment.
