San Francisco State University is facing backlash for canceling a conservative speaking event two weeks after Riley Gaines was physically assaulted on campus.
"There was an assault on Riley Gaines, and now there's an assault on free speech," Root told Todd Piro Thursday."And I think what we're seeing right now, too, is they actually are holding to their values if their values are intolerance and fascism, because they're trying to vilify the TPUSA chapter."
Leading up to the event, Root said the university told TPUSA chapter members that they would not be granted the speaking space, previously granted for theSEC champion swimmer Riley Gaines speaks during the Conservative Political Action Conference in Dallas, Texas, Aug. 6, 2022. "They left basically everything all chalked up with trans rights are human rights," Root said."They had BLM all over the place. They had pro-choice all over the place, and then we were forced to move it off campus. The park ended up shutting down. Then we moved it right across the street.""There was just under 100 people that showed up, and I think everybody that needed to show up, showed up," he continued.
