Several “Refuse Fascism” groups in California have announced plans to oppose an upcoming Young America’s Foundation (YAF) lecture featuring Students for Life of America president Kristan Hawkins on April 10. The radical leftists who oppose the event, hosted by the Young Americans for Freedom chapter at Cal State LA, are calling for sympathizers to “drive the fascists off campus.”

“As typically happens at Cal State LA, the leftists pretty much just lose their mind any time a conservative is scheduled to speak there,” says YAF spokesman Spencer Brown. he adds.

“You know, we’ve worked with the Cal State LA Young Americans for Freedom chapter to host a number of successful events there, but the leftists never really seem to get used to the fact that ideological diversity is a thing that should exist.”

The Facebook event created for the protest is titled “CalSt NO! Kristan Hawkins! Resist the Fascist Anti-Woman Agenda!” The groups call Hawkins a “fanatical, anti-women Christian-Fascist” who they claim is speaking on campus “to spew her misogynistic, anti-women poison” and working with President Trump and Vice President Pence “preparing the ground for a real-life ‘Handmaid’s tale’ with women completely enslaved and subordinated to a patriarchal order.”

Brown comes to Hawkins’ defense, describing her as “somebody who’s been leading the youth pro-life movement in America for a number of years now.”

The YAF spokesman continues that this so-called anti-women fascist is “someone who we’ve rallied with on the steps of the Supreme Court here in DC when there have been important cases being ruled on or heard there, and she’s someone we now work with to speak on campuses across the country to bring a pro-life message to these schools where it’s normally completely lacking.”
