It is another, far more difficult task to heal the rifts that the Jeffries speech caused between campus Blacks and the rest of the minority community, and between campus Blacks and whites.

When controversial City University of New York (CUNY) professor Leonard Jeffries arrived at Harvard amid tight security Wednesday, he was met by a large audience and a sizable protest rally.
