Tennessee State University: Group with MAGA Hats, 'Inflammatory' Signs Removed From HBCU

  • On September 23, 2025, a group called Fearless Debates wearing 'Make America Great Again' hats and carrying inflammatory signs appeared unannounced on Tennessee State University's Nashville campus.
  • This event followed university policies requiring advance approval for protests, and the group was unaffiliated and unauthorized to be on campus, prompting a police response.
  • A large crowd of TSU students peacefully opposed the group by booing and holding Black Lives Matter signs while the group packed up and was escorted off campus without incident.
  • TSU emphasized that its students acted professionally and respectfully throughout, affirming the safety and well-being of the campus community remained the highest priority.
  • The NAACP Nashville chapter described the incident as a deliberate attempt to provoke, unsettle, and create fear within a community meant to provide a safe and supportive environment for Black students, while also emphasizing the importance of distinguishing such actions from protected free speech rights.
