UNH Take Back the Night Event Evokes Anti-Male Sentiment

Today's front page story in the University of New Hampshire's school newspaper demonstrates a rise in anti-male feminism on campus. This year's rape awareness march, Take Back the Night, which has traditionally welcomed the participation of campus fraternities, was this time an exhibit of anti-male hatred and fraternity bashing. Members of the Feminist Action League protested the participation of men with a large banner reading, "We Don't Negotiate With Terrorists," equating fraternities with terrorist organizations. Two members of the FAL were quoted extensively in the article but their names were anonymized due to concerns over their safety. Apparently there were no concerns about holding these individuals accountable for the sweeping statements they made about fraternity members such as "We need to stop coddling the perpetrators." There are a few additional photos of the event on the NH Independent Media Center: one, two, three, four.
