9/8 Protest At UCB Against Michelle Malkin and Racial Profiling
Wednesday, September 8
Dwinelle Hall, 6:30pm
Dwinelle Hall, 6:30pm
Dear campus activists,
This Wednesday, the Berkeley College Republicans are bringing Michelle
Malkin, a notorious ultra-conservative and an outright racist, to
campus. The title of her appearance is "In Defense of Internment:
The Case for Racial Profiling."
Michelle Malkin has written a book of the same title defending the
internment of the Japanese in America during World War II, and she
argues that racial profiling of Muslim and Arab Americans would be an
appropriate measure for the "War on Terror." She has written
numerous articles raising the alarm about "Islamofascism" and
arguing that America needs to drastically restrict the immigration of
Middle Eastern people. (Check below for more info on her writings.)
At a time when thousands of Americans of Middle Eastern descent are
being constantly harassed, detained, abused, and deported by the U.S.
government, it is our responsibility to stage protests against these
injustices and against the people who defend them.
We believe that racists like Michelle Malkin should not be given a
free pass to come on campus (UC Berkeley for crying out loud!) and
advocate for a sweeping crackdown on our sisters and brothers in the
Arab and Muslim communities. We are calling for a protest against
this event and against the ideas that she spews.
Let's meet at 6:30 and make a confident, noisy protest near the
entrance of Dwinelle until 7:30 or so unless we have the
numbers and the will to go further. Please bring signs that oppose
racism, racial profiling, scapegoating, and so on.
Let's make it heard loud and clear that racism is not welcome at
UC Berkeley.

Shores."
