An anti-Muslim named ACT for America (hate group has plans to take its message to college campuses around the country, with its first stop set on the University of Akron.

This Fall, I'm going on an @ACTforAmerica tour speaking to colleges across the country about how

radical Islam & dictatorships are the true enemies of LGBT and women's rights.

This is the biggest project I've worked on in my life — I'm ready.

ACT President and founder Brigitte Gabriel stated “Islam has created and unleashed an uncontrollable wave of hatred and rage on the world and their terrorist attacks are the purest form of the religion. “It’s not radical Islam,” she said. “It’s what Islam is at its core.”

With the agenda to push Muslims out of the country, ACT for America captivates conservative groups such as the Akron chapter of Turning Point USA (TPUSA), a conservative student group that is present in many high schools and colleges.

This isn’t the first instance in where ACT for America has tried to amass followers on college campuses. In 2014, ACT has attempted to establish student chapters that counter the Muslim Student Association with Gabriel calling them a Muslim Brotherhood that is trying to destroy America. She asks for money to fund her group’s conferences that prepares students “to launch an ACT for America chapter at their university and start recruiting more students to get involved in protecting America.”

Other hate groups such as the neo-Nazi Vanguard America have also tried to spread their influence on college campuses, using speeches and flyers to promote their agenda. Some flyers include “Imagine a Muslim-free America” and featuring an image of the World Trade Center towers.

A "Muslim-free America" flyer was posted at one of the student's center where Muslims at Rutgers pray. It combatted by 100 better flyers. pic.twitter.com/USxEZWKUKu
