Linda Sarsour Speaking at Colorado State University. April 3, 2024

Linda Sarsour’s talk at Colorado State University. April 3, 2024. 

This is the second time within a month that Palestinian author and activist, Linda Sarsour, was invited to speak at a Colorado university. Earlier she spoke at the University of Colorado – Boulder.

In both cases there was resistance to her presence from Zionist student organizations and pro-Zionist Jewish Community elements who tried to get her talks cancelled. Then as now, these efforts failed; the students involved in bringing Sarsour to their campus fought successfully to overcome these efforts to silence free speech.

I would guess about 200 people were in the audience last night, overwhelmingly students. From what I could tell, very few, if any, faculty members were in attendance. The audience had a similar makeup during her Boulder talk.

Had a chance to exchange a few words with Linda Sarsour before her presentation.

In attendance were three women – all in their 60s. Using gorilla glue – good stuff – they had glued themselves to the wall of the city council building in protest to the Ft. Collins city council for refusing to pass a ceasefire resolution. I guess gorilla glue works pretty well as it was necessary to call the fire department to separate the women from the wall.
