"UNC College Republicans have led a student protest over the course, writing to Chancellor Carol Folt: “These readings offer points of view that justify terrorism, paint the United States and its government as wholly evil and immoral and desecrate the memory of the victims of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.”
They continue: “There is not a single reading required that focuses on the lives of the victims, the victim’s [sic] families, American soldiers (or) families of American soldiers. Nor is there a perspective that portrays the United States as acting in good faith before, during and after the Sept. 11 attacks.”
The course “does not teach students how to think, it teaches them what to think. And the material it presents is an apologetic for the violence and murder against the United States.”
