Snowflakes at Rutgers hold forum in solidarity after speaker's visit
[DAILYTARGUM] "We are here to show support," was repeated by nearly every person in the crowd as they introduced themselves at a forum to discuss Milo Yiannopoulos's visit to Rutgers last week.
Students and faculty gathered in the Paul Robeson Cultural Center on Busch campus to generate dialogue about Yiannopoulos's visit and the protest that occurred during his lecture. A variety of different organizations and departments were present to listen, answer questions and show support.
Students described feeling scared, hurt and discriminated against following Yiannopoulos's visit.
James was scared to walk around campus the next day. Many others agreed and said they felt unsafe at the event and around campus afterward.
Representatives from the RUPD said that if a student feels threatened, the first step they should take is to call them.
