Personally, I have gotten some heat for working with YAF. As a person of color, I am seen as a contrarian. Growing up, I was taught that the left cares about us minorities, while anyone who aligns with the right is racist. Some people on campus think this way and see my activism as a betrayal. I’ve been called an Uncle Tom, but I don’t let it bother me.
Name calling aside, this "heat" he's been getting might have something to do with his joining a group that was founded in the home of America's foremost unapologetic segregationist of the time (or perhaps second-most, after George Wallace):
