Ohio State University Features Black Communist

By: Cliff Kincaid | Accuracy in Media

Donald Trump’s adviser Stephen K. Bannon told the truth, but not the whole truth, when he described the media as the main opposition to President Trump. He neglected to mention academia as another important bastion for anti-Trump organizing and action.

Speaking at the January 21 so-called Women’s March on Washington, communist Angela Davis declared, “The next 1,459 days of the Trump administration will be 1,459 days of resistance: resistance on the ground, resistance in the classrooms, resistance on the job, resistance in our art and in our music.”

(Our media somehow overlooked the significance of Davis, a life-long unrepentant communist, as a speaker and co-chair of the event.)

The phrase “resistance in the classrooms” has a lot of meaning, since Davis is a former professor in the “History of Consciousness Department” at the University of California at Santa Cruz. She is now a popular speaker on college campuses.

On Tuesday night, the publicly-funded Ohio State University (OSU) hosted a Davis speech at an event sponsored by the Office of Diversity and Inclusion’s Frank W. Hale Jr. Black Cultural Center.

As part of a campus debate, the Davis appearance might be justified. Instead, her philosophy of communism was presented as the sole truth for students and young people. It had the approval of black organizations on campus.

Davis was advertised as merely a “political activist, academic scholar and author.” What makes Davis unique is her dedication for decades to the communist philosophy that ruled the Soviet Union and its client states. Davis even traveled to East Germany during the time of the Berlin Wall and had a friendly meeting with East German communist dictator Eric Honecker.

Her receipt of the Lenin Peace Prize in Moscow was recorded in an Associated Press video that is now posted on YouTube. You can see Davis hug a Soviet official and pay tribute to the Soviet revolution, with a bust of Lenin in the background. Davis showed her subservience to the Soviet Union by running as the vice-presidential candidate on the Communist Party USA ticket. The party was funded and controlled by Moscow.

Lawrence Williamson, director of the Hale Center at OSU, was quoted as saying that Davis was chosen as this year’s speaker because she demonstrates Martin Luther King’s dream “in a way younger generations can relate to.”

Hence, young blacks are being told that obedience to Moscow was a way to get ahead in life and a positive contribution to humanity’s progress.

Davis was even an associate of Jim Jones, the religious cult leader who led his followers in a mass suicide and left his estate to the Communist Party.

Since the demise of the old Soviet Union, Davis has been calling herself a “democratic socialist” and trying to appear mainstream.

With the support of George Soros and his money, she started the group Critical Resistance, in order to agitate among prisoners, seek abolition of the death penalty, and even to abolish prisons. She is a lesbian and a vegan, with the cause of animal rights as her latest crusade. She also speaks more and more about “Justice for Palestine,” which is usually code for the destruction of Israel.

Davis is leaving the OSU campus for a Saturday February 4 event at my alma mater, the University of Toledo (UT). Again, the campus office of diversity and inclusion is the sponsor. And again, the Davis speech is being presented as the ultimate truth, with no opposing view.

I have informed the UT President in a letter that, as an alumnus, I object to this one-sided presentation.

It is hard to keep up with Davis, whose appearances around the country are numerous. She was recently at an event sponsored by the Mid-South Peace and Justice Center in Memphis, Tennessee, and spoke about how Trump is “trying to make America white again,” but will not be able to “govern comfortably” because of protests against him.

With these remarks, Davis betrays the real purpose of the Marxist assault on America. The objective is to subvert the European-American roots of America’s cultural strength by deriding traditional values as “white supremacy.”

A one-time puppet of Moscow, she is now an advocate of Cultural Marxism, having learned communist tactics under Frankfurt School Professor Herbert Marcuse, who made Brandeis University into what critics called a “School for Terrorists.”  The school produced female terrorists for the Weather Underground and the Islamic Jihad.

Estimates of Davis’ fee in the past have been around $20,000 a speech. When she speaks on state-funded college campuses, of course, those fees are paid for with student and taxpayer money.

No wonder students are going into debt to obtain useless degrees.

Although college administrators are rolling out the red carpet for Davis at OSU and UT, Trump won Ohio over Democrat Hillary Clinton by 52 percent to 43.5 percent, “the widest margin of victory for a presidential candidate in Ohio since 1988,” according to the Toledo Blade newspaper.

Being a featured speaker at Ohio State, one of the largest universities in the nation, is a major advance for the anti-Trump forces in academia. Her promised “resistance in the classrooms” can only grow, as long as lawmakers continue to permit state-funded institutions of higher learning to sponsor campus brainwashing sessions featuring Marxists like Davis.

American Spring – Bread and Circuses

By: Terresa Monroe-Hamilton

George Soros

It was a hot time in the old town the other night in Chicago. Donald Trump was scheduled to speak at a rally there with thousands in attendance. That rally had to be cancelled because thousands of violent protesters showed up. Many had tickets to the event. The protest seems to have been organized by MoveOn.org, Bill Ayers and Code Pink. CPUSA, Illinois Coalition of Immigrant and Refugee Rights and ANSWER (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism) also had a hand in it. George Soros has invested approximately $15 million to stage protests like this one to ensure a Clinton victory in November. Troops on the ground included La Raza, the Black Lives Matter movement, the Nation of Islam and the New Black Panthers. It was a who’s who of anarchists, extremists, radicals and freaks. Trump never even arrived at the event. He told the attendees to disperse and go in peace. Unfortunately, it did not go down that way. The decision to cancel the event was Trump’s and was not a recommendation from the police. I say he made the right call on this one.

Bernie Sanders of course blamed Trump, which is just ridiculous. Donald Trump has a right to free speech. The protesters also have a right to protest, but peacefully. They weren’t doing that, so the police should have dispersed them. This is what Sanders had to say:

“As is the case virtually every day, Donald Trump is showing the American people that he is a pathological liar,” Sanders wrote. “Obviously, while I appreciate that we had supporters at Trump’s rally in Chicago, our campaign did not organize the protests. What caused the protests at Trump’s rally is a candidate that has promoted hatred and division against Latinos, Muslims, women, and people with disabilities, and his birther attacks against the legitimacy of President Obama. What caused the violence at Trump’s rally is a campaign whose words and actions have encouraged it on the part of his supporters.”

The DNA Deniers in the Media

By: Cliff Kincaid
Accuracy in Media

The media have launched a major campaign on behalf of the “transgendered.” The Bruce Jenner ABC News interview is the most visible manifestation of this campaign. However, the NBC Nightly News on Wednesday ran a story by Kate Snow about the “transgender grandchild” of Democratic Rep. Mike Honda of Hawaii. Lacking in the coverage is any concrete definition of the term “transgendered” or any discussion of how children are now being used to promote an increasingly bizarre sexual agenda that requires physically mutilating or chemically treating very confused young people.

The Human Rights Campaign, a group co-founded by accused sex offender Terry Bean, a major Democratic Party fundraiser, quickly highlighted this latest NBC News report in a continuing series on “transgender youth.”

However, just like the terms lesbian, gay, and bisexual, the word “transgendered” applies to certain behaviors or appearances and does not signify anything scientific or biological about a person.

Regardless of what you may see or read in the media, nature has given humanity two sexes, male and female, which are defined by DNA. People can call themselves anything they want, but the biological facts of life cannot be denied.

This is why, when The Washington Post ran a recent story about a “transgendered” soldier who claims to be a man, the paper noted that the military regards “him” as a “her,” because biologically that is what he really is. You cannot change your DNA.

The point is that those claiming to be one of any number of categories of alleged sexual minorities can accurately be labeled DNA deniers if they deny their fundamental biological identity.

The liberals and their media allies always claim they are in favor of science on matters such as global warming or climate change. But strangely, on the matter of human sexuality, science is denied and people are allowed to make up “facts” about themselves, describing their sexuality in terms that happen to be pleasing to them for any reason at all. A new category is “questioning,” meaning that a person can decide, apparently from day to day, what sexual minority they belong to.

If someone feels he or she is a member of the opposite sex, then that is perfectly acceptable, according to the LGBT community and its supporters.

But facts are facts, and science is science. Even liberal publications have to admit this. “The simplest thing DNA can tell you is whether someone is male or female,” notes the Guardian.

But consider the NBC story. Snow referred to Rep. Honda as having “tweeted a photo of himself on Twitter back in February, grinning next to his beautiful 8-year-old granddaughter Malisa…” But Malisa is not a girl. Malisa is biologically a boy. He was born with the name Brody.

Snow reported that the parents “thought their second child would be a boy. But by the time their child was three, she had chosen a new name for herself—Malisa.” A child at the age of three decided to become a girl? Could it be that the child was going through a phase and living in a fantasy? It seems apparent that the child was born a boy and was going through some confusion about his sexual identity. The parents decided to encourage this confusion by allowing the child to now identify as a girl.

Rather than celebrate this bizarre development, the parents should be questioned about their child-rearing skills. What the child (and the parents) may need is serious psychological counseling.

Of course, the homosexuals and their supporters, most notably President Barack Obama, adamantly oppose any kind of change therapy to return troubled young people to their biologically-based sexual orientation.

Snow reported, “Although there are no exact numbers, Malisa joined what experts say is a growing number of children transitioning at a young age.” No exact numbers? Experts? Who are they? This is propaganda masquerading as journalism. It is designed to feed the notion that nature’s determination that humans are born male and female is a gross miscalculation, and that humans can decide whether they are male or female, or whatever.

What Snow is describing is sexual confusion brought on by a culture (and possibly parents) which has obscured the sexual differences between men and women. This is where the homosexual movement has brought our nation.

Snow reports, “The family knows they are just at the beginning of this journey with Malisa, and work closely with a team of doctors. As she approaches puberty, they’ll have to consider whether to use so called puberty blockers and hormone therapy.”

The “puberty blockers” will be designed to stop “Malisa” from being the boy “she” is. They will stop the growth of facial hair and an Adam’s apple. He may also have to undergo some form of sex change surgery or other medical treatment.

Rather than challenge this insidious campaign of making children into pawns of the sexual “liberation” movement, some conservative and Republican politicians on Capitol Hill are voting for measures to in some way “protect” or outlaw alleged “discrimination” against sexual minorities.

For example, ten Republican senators voted for a measure introduced by far left-wing Democratic Senator Patrick Leahy (VT) to protect alleged “LGBT homeless youth.” They were Senators Kelly Ayotte (NH), Shelley Moore Capito (WV), Susan Collins (ME), Dean Heller (NV), Mark Kirk (IL), Lisa Murkowski (AK), Rand Paul (KY), Rob Portman (OH), Dan Sullivan (AK) and Pat Toomey (PA).

The term “LGBT homeless youth” is designed to expand the reach of the federal government into yet another area of human activity, based on questionable surveys and experts.

The power of the propaganda emanating from the media has created the perception, even among these Republicans, that this is a major problem that the federal government must address.

Not surprisingly, the homosexual movement was ecstatic. Thanks to those 10 Republicans, the headline over the AP article was, “A Majority Of The Senate Is Voting For LGBT Rights.”

The DNA deniers are on the march, making serious inroads into the national Republican Party.
