Black Lives Matter Students Shut Down the ACLU's Campus Free Speech Event Because 'Liberalism Is White Supremacy'

Black Lives Matter at William and Mary protested a speech by the head of the Virginia ACLU.
Their chants: "The revolution will not protect the Constitution" "Liberalism is white supremacy" as seen in the video below.

BLM left a statement on the video on their facebook saying:

Tonight, we shut down an event at William & Mary where Claire Gastañaga, executive director of the ACLU of Virginia, was speaking. In contrast to the ACLU, we want to reaffirm our position of zero tolerance for white supremacy no matter what form it decides to masquerade in.

The disruption was livestreamed on BLM at W&M's Facebook page. Students took to the stage just a few moments after Claire Gastañaga, a W & M alum, began her remarks. At first she attempted to use the demonstration as the kind of free speech she and the ACLU are there to support and protect. Wishing to educate and speak with them about their rights, protests and demonstrations.

She was shouted out with "ACLU, you protect Hitler, too." They also chanted, "the oppressed are not impressed," "shame, shame, shame, shame," . After 20 minutes of this, one of the college's co-organizers of the event handed a microphone to the protest's leader, who delivered a prepared statement. The disruption was apparently payback for the ACLU's principled First Amendment defense of the Charlottesville alt-right's civil liberties.

The event was then cancelled. some members of the audience approached the podium in an attempt to speak with Gastañaga, but the protesters would not permit it. They surrounded Gastañaga, raised their voices even louder, and drove everybody else away.

The college released this weak statement:

William & Mary has a powerful commitment to the free play of ideas. We have a campus where respectful dialogue, especially in disagreement, is encouraged so that we can listen and learn from views that differ from our own, so that we can freely express our own views, and so that debate can occur. Unfortunately, that type of exchange was unable to take place Wednesday night when an event to discuss a very important matter – the meaning of the First Amendment — could not be held as planned. …

Silencing certain voices in order to advance the cause of others is not acceptable in our community. This stifles debate and prevents those who've come to hear a speaker, our students in particular, from asking questions, often hard questions, and from engaging in debate where the strength of ideas, not the power of shouting, is the currency. William & Mary must be a campus that welcomes difficult conversations, honest debate and civil dialogue.

These people obviously don't want to share free speech with anyone else. Even people trying to help them.
