University slammed for inviting Women's March leader to MLK week

The North Carolina Hillel said it was “disappointed” that the University of North Carolina-Asheville invited Women’s March co-chair Tamika Mallory as keynote speaker for its Martin Luther King Jr. Week celebrations.

The organization, which represents the Jewish communities on 15 campuses throughout the state, including the five UNC campuses, noted in its statement “Mallory and her co-chairs’ failure to address the concerns of anti-Semitism within the Women’s March movement.”
