Hundreds Protest White Nationalist Richard Spencer at Auburn University
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

In Alabama, hundreds of people protested against a speech by white
nationalist Richard Spencer at Auburn University Tuesday night in the
latest round of protests against the racist and xenophobic leader of the
so-called alt-right movement. Spencer spoke against the wishes of the
university, after a federal judge ruled the university did not have the
power to cancel his speech. Spencer said Tuesday's speech was sponsored
by the white nationalist website Alt Right.com.
