While of course no one can reconstruct the exact words of a speech that was never given, you can, in fact, learn what Posie Parker says at her rallies generally.

She’s given many public talks. You can find her in videos and podcasts like the radio interview I described in this article. She has a Twitter account with over 100k followers, and her allies with larger accounts promote her. She is the subject of much reporting and analysis, so you can check out secondary sources too.

Again, if you’re truly interested in learning about what she believes and endorses—and thus deciding whether you should side with her political position—you can do it.

(This is separate from the question of whether anyone can ever do anything to deserve having soup thrown on them, a question that doesn’t fascinate me right now, and is derived from an event which, as you’ve acknowledged, hadn’t yet happened when I wrote this article.)

If you want to make a list of everyone in the world who’s ever been hounded off a platform and somehow use that to arrive at your own political position based on who you believe did the hounding-off and whatever you believe the speaker didn’t have a chance to say, you have a big project ahead of you.
