Johns Hopkins Students Disrupt Yoo Speech

Filed under: Crimes of Dissent — Editor @ 11:59 am

In Maryland, two Johns Hopkins University students disrupted a lecture Wednesday by former Bush administration attorney John Yoo. Yoo helped author the notorious Justice Department memos justifying waterboarding and other forms of torture. Before Yoo began his talk, students stood at the front of the lecture hall holding a banner reading “Try Yoo for Torture.” They refused to move, but agreed not to interrupt Yoo’s speech. Yoo then delivered the lecture with the students holding their banner throughout.

Protester: “We wanted to make it very clear that John Yoo is not accepted at Johns Hopkins University and that wherever he goes—not simply because of his views, but rather because of his material support for the administration of torture—that it is unacceptable, and we’re voicing that quite clearly.”
