## Transcript

I was supposed to be entering Boston University for my sophomore year, but in response to recent death threats and threats against my physical safety, I decided that that might not be the best idea When you start receiving death threats to the extent that I have, it just becomes a liability to my brand. To my academic success and everything else when you do have to worry about people ganging up on you or whatever. It's disturbing to me the level of hate that people have been able to express and been able to feel against someone they've never met, never saw, never had a conversation with. They say that we're the hateful ones, we're the bigots.

And I get messages all day long from people I've never met telling what I terrible person I am. There's no hate on this side. I hate no one. I would never do anything like that. I think it's a little bit upsetting that the political climate is the way it is. The reason for going down to Charlottesville over the weekend was to demonstrate It was to show solidarity for a cause which has not been talked about in the mainstream media, which the American people never got a vote on, and that is the fundamental transformation of the composition of our country.
