Hampshire College Silences Black Speaker Over Her Support for Second Amendment
Hampshire College, the ultra-progressive institution that has previously made headlines for flying the American flag at half-staff after the election of President Donald Trump, is now on the receiving end of a backlash over its decision to rescind its speaking invitation for Antonia Okafor, a pro-Second Amendment black woman.
Meanwhile, Okafor’s speaking engagement at nearby Mount Holyoke College — titled “Female Empowerment and the Second Amendment” — is slated to go forward Thursday evening, although administrators have taken steps to provide “alternative spaces” for students intending to protest her talk.
Hampshire College, however, is now claiming it pulled the plug on Okafor not due to her views, but because “the college did not follow its own procedures in sufficiently reviewing the application before we approved it.”
It's okay to be black as long as you tow the Democrat line but don't start getting uppity and thinking on your own.

ReplyDeleteWhat if I told you that you could still be pro 2nd and want better gun laws?
ReplyDeleteGuns laws only stop good citizens, the crooks already have them.
ReplyDeleteIf anybody wants a gun, anybody can get a gun. What they do with it is what matters.
