"Geller's ads demonize Muslims at a time when they are under attack. As an educator, I fully support free speech and the open exchange of ideas. But hate speech like the bus ads has a destructive, cumulative impact on society. The term 'savages' has been used to demonize people of color and marginalize them throughout this country's history."
