DePaul student writes DePaulia Op-Ed opposing upcoming Ward Churchill visit
I have a lot of recent DePaul posts, including a Marathon Pundit exclusive from yesterday. Scroll down for those.
DePaul student Derrick Wlodarz wrote an Op-Ed expressing his opposition to Ward Churchill's appearances at Chicago's DePaul University next week. The site is down this morning, the latest DePaulia, the October 7 edition, should be online today or tomorrow. Click here, then go to the Op-Ed page to read Derrick's piece. Last night the prior edition of the DePaulia was up. So if you can't find it, please be patient.
Pictured above is from the print version of the DePaulia.
UPDATE 5:45PM CDT Friday, Oct. 14: The online version of Derrick's article is up, and it's here.
An excerpt:
“I want the state gone: transform the situation to U.S. out of North America. U.S. off the planet. Out of existence altogether.” These are not the remarks of an al-Qaeda spokesman; they came from the mouth of Ward Churchill during a magazine interview this past April. According to Ward, 9/11 was the result of “gallant sacrifices of the combat teams.” He believes the attacks on 9/11 weren’t enough, and in order to even the playing field with the United States, the terrorists would need to “at a minimum, have to blow up about 300,000 more buildings and kill something on the order of 7.5 million people.” This is absolute filth, the kind of language you would never expect to hear from a former college professor.
