We are mounting the barricades once again! This week marks our second Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week with events planned on over 105 college
campuses across the country.![]()
Islamo Fascism Awareness Week is an effort to bring the truth into the suffocating ideological bias of our universities. It comes as
no surprise that the radical left is organizing to stop our speakers. This is what happened last fall when they shut down my speech at Emory,
threatened former Muslim Nonie Darwish at Berkeley, and disrupted several of our speakers.
They want to kill this event because they knew know that awareness about Islamo Fascism means the end of their political monopoly on campus
and the beginning of a student movement that honors and supports our country. Because of this threat, we are once again forced to pay for extra
security to ensure our speakers' safety. And today, I'm asking for your financial help today to offset this extra cost to the David Horowitz
Freedom Center. Please follow this link today to make a donation of $35, $50, $100, $250, $500 or more.
Our campus coordinators - brave young men and women willing to go up against the radical left to get the truth to their fellow students -
are working night and day against incredible odds to make the Week a success. And unless, the radical, pro-jihad groups succeed in silencing us, by the end of
the week over 40 speakers such as Nonie Darwish, Robert Spencer and Frank Gaffney will have appeared on campuses across the country- from
UC Berkeley to Columbia; from Ohio State and Michigan.
But the opposition is building, both in its intensity and its potential for violence. (I have been forced to provide bodyguards for
all our speakers and the campus police have been on high alert at every school where they have appeared). The entire political left, from the
Revolutionary Communist Party to the Young Democrats, is up in arms against us. The violent hardcore left is urged on in its rhetoric of violence with a wink
and a nod by the "moderate" left.
I write you now to ask you to support the brave students who have invited us to bring the oxygen of truth to their campuses. This
must be a permanent campaign to help these young people continue the awareness campaign; to organize on more campuses; to make sure that the left does not
silence what some are already calling one of the most important public information campaigns of our era.
This is our chance to strike back at them and to build a movement that will deny them an intellectual haven on America's college
campuses.
