For those of us who don't get US TV: who is Christina Sommers?

Here you go:


Equity feminist and former philosophy professor Christina Hoff Sommers is not a particularly threatening figure. But student activists at Oberlin and Georgetown colleges, where Sommers recently spoke, were insistent that her presence on their campuses posed a threat to the student population.
Activists at Georgetown University held up “trigger warning” placards at Sommers’ lectures, warning that her arguments would be potentially traumatizing. They also posted signs directing students to a “safe space” in another part of the college. Much like the recent Calgary Expo, the prospect of having their beliefs challenged was enough to make the activists feel “unsafe”.

Those who wish to judge for themselves how “traumatizing” Sommers’ lecture was can find a recording below...

Now I get where you're coming from.

It calls to mind that row in California where the leader of a conservative club at a university was hauled in front of kangaroo court for "acts of violence" when he refused to attend a seminar on "proper use of cross-gender pronouns".
