What a well spoken, intelligent young woman. Wishing you success and peace to all those wanting peace for all people and religions.
-
Of course USC did. I’m an old timer and it’s been a very long time since I was in college but it seems like free speech and freedom of thought and questioning all of existing theories is no longer allowed. If so it’s a shame.
-
They’re here with their hate and now security concerns
-
Whenever an attempt is made to silence someone, it is amazing how the message gets across faster, louder and clearer.
-
What a sweetheart of clean soul and heart of a person she’s. What is wrong with the world we live in? Shame on all the people who called to cancel her speech. Some people get frightened from liberty and free speech when it’s not limited to them only.
-
She seems very well spoken, thoughtful, intelligent, brave, decent, and very well deserving of giving her speech as long as it was reviewed and accepted by the university. If they told her to make changes those change suggestions should be FAIR and also be reviewed and deemed as necessary and the WHY behind them given. I hope this whole thing allows her to go on an even bigger press tour and share her thoughts and beliefs to an even BIGGER audience.
-
If her speech was going to address the current political uproar, i dont wonder why her speech was cancelled.
-
AIPAC should be required to register under FARA…Stop foreign election interference.
-
What in the world is happening to my country. The West needs to wake up.
-
Well, she answers questions like a politician. No wonder she made valedictorian.
-
Ridiculous. Let her speak.
-
Shame on you USC! Security concerns or Islamophobia?
-
MONEY TALKS AND POLITICAL MOVES🤬🤬🤬 SHAME ON USC🤬
-
If someone is anti US that does not follow that they are anti-Christian. Similarly, if someone is critical of the state of Israel that in itself is not antisemitic. You can be critical of Israel and how they treat the Palestinians and still support the Jewish people.
-
bless this poor angel and let her do her speech
-
“When Tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty”
-
As a supporter of democracy and freedom, I support her to speake out
-
We have enough problems as😮 seriously let's focus on our country And states!
-
Valedictorian or political speech. You changed the views alright.
-
Shame on USC..
