A leftist Howard University professor urged white allies to emulate a pre-Civil War violent radical, now used by designated terrorist organization Antifa as a revolutionary icon.
Stacey Patton, a journalism professor at the Washington, DC-based university, posted a blog post, “John Brown Didn’t Ask Enslaved People How to Be A Good White Ally.”
Patton wrote, “So when white allies ask, ‘What can I do?’ here’s the answer: Be like John Brown. Ask yourself, what am I willing to burn so somebody else can breathe?”
