UPDATE UPDATE! I’ll be at Brandeis this afternoon for the last portion of the program. Brandeis is expecting a large crowd, but they are asking you to email your plans to attend. Go to the website linked below.
UPDATE! Brandeis has posted an “apology” here. But the program is still scheduled for Wednesday with no changes.
Just interviewed Brandeis spokesman Andrew Gully about the upcoming Neo Nazis/Tea Party symposium. Some breaking news:
Brandeis started taking down the “swastika” posters promoting the event this morning.
Brandeis has removed the link to our Boston Common Tea Party with Sarah Palin from the webpage. (You can see the original screen capture on a posting below.)
Gully repeatedly asserted that there was nothing about the symposium linking Tea Parties to Neo Nazis, and that you can’t necessarily draw conclusions from panels like “From Tea Parties To Armed Militias.” Uh-huh.
Well, at least there’s no more extremism on the website…
