"anti-racist"? Srsly. Sorry I didn't see this earlier to warm our FRiends in the Boston area to steer clear of BU. Seems like the majority colleges and universities are pretty much a waste of O2 anymore in a lot of fields.

>>The event will host leading “antiracist” authors and scholars, including one of Black Lives Matter’s co-founders.

They are “doing it wrong” then if they want to be “anti-racist”.

These days anyone who bills himself as “antiracist” is probably very racist.

BU alum Martin Luther King Jr. was anti-racist. He said that the black nationalists were every bit as wrongheaded as the white supremascists were.

He said that a man should be judged by the content of his character, not the color of his skin.

Today we aren’t even supposed to judge people.

Anyone that is a big enough fool to attend needs to get charged at least a thousand dollars a ticket. I have no doubt that the event will be sold out.

Curious if he is arranging an Africa tour for his book?

Racism for fun and profit. The NAZI party is blushing at all this racist garbage. Discovering the “Aryans” can’t compete with the clowns running things now.

I read "To Kill A Mockingbird" in high school about 55 years ago. The film,however,is one of my very favorites and I,of course,have it on bluray disc.

I wonder how the book is seen by attendees at this "festival". Is Tom Robinson an "Uncle Tom" for having been so calm,polite and obedient? Is Atticus a Klan member for not having machine gunned Bob Euell,Mayella and the entire jury?

There could be no doubt,of course,that Boo Radley was a racist for having been so pasty white.

Racists and Anti-Racists worship the same god ironically.

Taking an analogy from the “New Math” we see that “Anti-Fascist” is a subset of “Fraud”. If they can redefine “White Supremacy” and “Racism”, I can redefine the super set of the euphemism “Anti-Fascist”. Since it is now considered FRAUD, the implied intent is to mask the Fascist reality of Wokeism.

Do I have that authority to thus redefine terms? Do they?
