TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) — White nationalist Richard Spencer won't be allowed to speak at Kent State University on the anniversary of the fatal Vietnam protest shootings, the school said Thursday, the same day he was approved to speak at Michigan State University in March. Spencer, a leading figure in the white nationalist movement, and his associates have sought to speak at universities across the country, leading to lawsuits and battles over the fundamental right to free speech at public universities. His campus tour organizer asked this week to rent space at Kent State's Student Multicultural Center on May 4 — the date when, in 1970, Ohio National Guard members fired into a crowd protesting the Vietnam war and killed four students.
