commonKean University Cancels Common’s Graduation Speech For Paying Tribute To Assata Shakur


It seems New Jersey’s Kean University has flipped the script. Yesterday, they announced that it would host Common as the institution’s graduation day speaker. And now, just a day later, the university has resent its invitation, citing Com’s heartfelt tributary “A Song For Assata” as incendiary and offensive to the state’s law enforcement regime for praising activist and former Black Panther Assata Shakur, who is currently laying low in Cuba after being convicted of the 1973 murder of NJ state police officer.


Assata Shakur has always maintained her innocence. I see this as attempt silence those who want to empower and pay tribute to those by spreading knowledge of civil rights, and liberties.


The Cafe': When I was in college we invited Russell Simmons to speak at our BSU. We were told by the school that they didn't want him to come out. They pulled the funding, we raise so much hell that they allowed him to come out. Of course the FBI/ CIA accompanied him but he spoke!


What are you gonna do, Kean University?!!!!
