Having read a transcript of Khalid Abdul Muhammad's talk at Kean College
in New Jersey, I think it is truly disgusting that the university is
paying him THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS to talk here.  Personally, I'm going to
try to avoid paying student fees for the rest of my time here.  I'd really
rather not get kicked out of CU, but this is at least as bad as forcing
black people to give money to the KKK...   

If you go to Muhammad's talk, I suggest a dignified protest, like turning
your back on him for the duration of the assembly.  I think it would be
better, however, for people simply not to go: It would be a wonderful show
of principle, of Black-Jewish unity, of the best spirit of Boulder, if
this guy were to find himself in front of an empty room!

It would be harder for him to get speaking engagements in the future if we
showed he was unable to attract a room full of people to hear his racism.
