Stand Up to Hate Demonstration
March 7, 2017
Lawrence, Kansas
About 150 people gathered to spread love outside Victory Bible Church in Lawrence. The church had invited Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff, anti-sharia activist. She was hosted by the Douglas County Republic Party. Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff is an Austrian human rights and anti-sharia activist. She was convicted of “hate speech” under Austrian law for assertions she made during a seminar on Islam.
