Speaking at UNC (Oct. 10) and UVA (Oct. 11)
Please come see me in person!
Dear Friends,
I’ll be speaking at two university campuses this week.
Campus speech police are already losing their minds, as reported here.
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (Oct. 10):
Tickets (Free!) available here.
The University of Virginia (Oct. 11).
Tickets (Free!) available here.
I look forward to seeing you!
xo,
Abigail
I have great respect for anyone with the fortitude to venture into the brat pens that we dignify with the name university in order to talk some sense into their most self-engrossed, banner-waving, loud-mouthing babies. The nearest I have got (since leaving university 50 years ago) was reading Heather Mac Donald's forensic survey of campus culture The Diversity Delusion (which I reviewed here): https://grahamcunningham.substack.com/p/how-diversity-narrows-the-mind
A snippet: "In 2017, at Evergreen State College, a biology professor had his class invaded by a frenzied mob hurling ‘Fuck you, you piece of shit’ type abuse. The professor, ironically a lifelong progressive, “had refused to obey an edict from Evergreen’s Director of First Peoples Multicultural Advising Services that all white faculty cancel their courses for a day and…white students were also ordered to absent themselves from the school to show ‘solidarity’.” Evergreen’s president expressed his “gratitude” for the mob’s “passion and courage”".
As a UVA graduate, I wish I could be there. I hope it’s a great turnout. Many thanks for all your work and courage!
