[PAA-Discuss] censorship

[Sherry Glover]

This is interesting, that state lawmakers are trying to contain this fine
instructor. While I was in Madison last year, (on the BTHN tour). I found
the whole place to be one of the most progressive cities I ever visited. I
can't see the town getting behind this effort, but I do see the state
lawmakers scurrying to shut him up.wonder what they have to worry about?

Regardless of your position on 9-11, this censorship is simply wrong!

MADISON, Wisconsin (AP) -- More than 60 state lawmakers are urging the
University of Wisconsin-Madison to fire an instructor who has argued that
the U.S. government orchestrated the September 11 terrorist attacks. 

A letter sent Thursday and signed by 52 Assembly representatives and nine
state senators condemns a decision to let Kevin Barrett teach an
introductory class on Islam this fall.
