Last week, students across the country hosted
“Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week” as well as, on many campuses, counter
programming and protests. The highly
controversial week, the brain child of conservative activist David Horowitz,
was adopted on a number of campuses by the College Republicans and Young
Americans for Freedom and typically featured conservative speakers describing
the threat of “Islamo-Fascism.” These
events were often met with protest by Muslim Student Associations and anti-war
groups through counter-programming, protests and, in some cases, by interrupting
speeches.
