Many campuses have been besieged bywhite supremacist activity seeking to incite violence and attract media attention.In this climate, many of today’s students are encountering conversations around difference,power, and privilege amid a flurry of alt-right propaganda, exposed in a new way to overtlyracist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic, or ableist ideas through newmedia.
