A rally to protest postings on campus by the white identity group Identity Evropa will be held today (March 22) at 3 p.m. on the steps of the Education Building at Bowling Green State University.
The group put up posters on the BGSU campus as part of a national recruiting campaign.
The group organizing the rally, Fight Back Against White Supremacy, said more calling cards” have been left since and the group has posted on social media.
In a news release, Ashley Philipp, one of the organizers, said the BGU administration “as still not made any active steps to quell the growing unrest of the student population or deter the offenders.”
When the first flyer appeared, the administration issued a statement condemning the fliers and reasserting that it “does not tolerate hate, racism, sexism or intolerance.” (http://bgindependentmedia.org/hate-group-posts-fliers-on-campus/)
Philipp said there is a possibility the rally will have to be moved because of problems getting a permit from the university. If that’s the case, those gathered will march to the green space on the southwest corner of the intersection of Church and W. Wooster, across from the police station.
