My Encounter With the Enemy in Milwaukee
—By David Horowitz
It’s about the Muslim Student Association chapter at a campus or two in the U.S., and his run-ins with them when invited by campus conservatives to give speeches. The Muslim Students Association has chapters in Canada and its state-funded universities too.
While waiting to speak at the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee last night, I was given a tour of the Student Union, the venue for my talk. The Union building also houses the offices of student clubs, funded by mandatory student fees.
