Sorry, I took a while longer to respond. I did quick search online and could not find what the previous poster was talking about concerning the movement. Thinking it may be a right wing misinformation campaign, I looked on a few sites (National Review, American Thinker, and Red State) and could not find anything. I even looked at Amren, and the stuff that came up there when searching "metoo" and "farrakahn" together were horrible, but not related to anything the poster was talking about.
I'm just puzzled.
