The college president called the parade a 'perversion' and an 'affront to the wonderfully pied beauty of our affirming and diverse commonwealth of learning.'
Emerson College President Lee Pelton condemned an upcoming Straight Pride Parade in Boston, calling it fear and ignorance masquerading as freedom of speech.
"Well, it's happening again: Fear and ignorance, humanity's most potent cocktail, masquerading as freedom of speech," he wrote, adding that the rally passing by the campus was an"affront to the wonderfully pied beauty of our affirming and diverse commonwealth of learning." "We live in the Age of the Spectacle," Pelton added."This event makes clear that when you have no informed position to offer or when you lack a meritorious idea, you whip up an attention-getting spectacle—in this case, an odious parade ... The Straight Pride Parade is meant to be a spectacle."
