Pro genocide people apologists for crimes against humanity are not welcome on campus
It is necessary to speak out for our student rights.
As a HCC alumni, I am deeply disturbed by the lack of action against the faculty involved. This is not the same school I was once a part of
I condemn all acts of hatred and violence and I also condemn the dehumanization of Palestinians, Arabs and Muslims. I am very disheartened by the levels of Islamaphobis and anti Arab rhetoric and for students to be threatened for challenging the views of a people or wearing traditional garb is anti American at its core.
By the flyer it appeared that HCC initially promoted this talk as informative and balanced for both sides. However, students who posed questions in favor of Palestinians were met with threats and escorted out. This behavior is unacceptable, particularly in Howard County, where we pride ourselves on being civil and welcoming to all viewpoints.
This is a very important topic in todays world.
It is the responsibility of the administration to ensure that students and staff not only feel safe but ARE safe on campus. Religious, political view points should not make anyone a target of hate or oppression.
Because I agree With respecting all peoples rights
