I have a new goal in life.
One day I hope to be a concern to United States Senator Dianne Feinstein. And, as a bonus, maybe United States Senator Dick Durbin will be worried, too.
CAMBRIDGE — With the help of a massive police presence, controversial political scientist Charles Murray successfully accomplished at Harvard University what he was unable to do months ago at Middlebury College — deliver remarks without encountering violence.
Murray set foot on campus at Harvard on Wednesday night to deliver a lecture on his 2012 book Coming Apart: The State of White America 1960-2010, and to address how his research applies to present-day America under President Donald Trump. The talk, hosted by the Harvard College Open Campus Initiative, was closed to non-Harvard affiliates. A set of steel barricades surrounded the perimeter of the Harvard Mineralogical and Geological Museum, where Murray spoke.
