Photos show OSU student govt. rep making Nazi salute, waving swastika flag
Andew Oswalt, a student government representative at Oregon State University facing a recall over his inflammatory views, marched with white power proponents in Portland, delivered Nazi salutes to cars traveling on Interstate 5 and appears to have stood with a swastika flag outside the home of a man who advocates the extermination of Jewish people last year.
Photos of Oswalt doing all those things appeared this week on the website of the Pacific Northwest Antifascist Workers Collective, a group comprised of unnamed antifa activists from Oregon and Washington.
Oswalt didn't dispute the photos Thursday.
"Germar Rudolf did nothing wrong," he wrote in an email to The Oregonian/OregonLive, referring to a chemist and Holocaust denier sentenced to prison by a German court in 1995 for inciting racial hatred. He provided no additional comment.
The details uncovered by antifa show that Oswalt for nearly a year worked with fixtures of the region's white nationalist movement to publicly organize and provoke at the same time he taught advanced chemistry and won election to the student congress at OSU.
