Black Lives Matter protesters stormed into a library at Dartmouth College and screamed abuse at white students trying to study and allegedly physically assaulted others.

The protesters, clad in black, entered the Baker-Berry Library on the university’s campus in Hanover, New Hampshire, on Thursday evening.

Their demonstration was apparently due to a Black Lives Matter display of shirts being torn down at the school’s Collis Center last week.

And the protest, which started peacefully, soon turned hostile and aggressive.

Black Lives Matter protesters stormed into a library at Dartmouth College on Thursday and screamed abuse at white students trying to study and allegedly physically assaulted others

The Dartmouth Review listed epithets that were hurled at white students, including ‘F*** you, you filthy white f***s!’ and ‘F*** you, you racist s****!’

It reported that as well as the profanity, both male and female students were shoved.

And in an op-ed for The Tab, Charlie Lundquist, a white male student who was at the protest, said he had been proud to attend, but left early because of what it became.

He explained that he joined in because while racism was ‘subtle’ at the Ivy League university, but it was ‘alive and well’.

‘It was inspiring to walk through campus all in black, and to see so many other students doing the same,’ he wrote.

A video of the protesters in the library captured one student (pictured above) repeatedly shouting at the person filming: 'Do you think black lives matter?'

‘But I didn’t make it to the end of the protest, by which time a small group of participants had descended to aggressive verbal harassment of their fellow students.’

He reported around 150 students had gathered at Dartmouth Hall to protest peacefully, including minutes of silence and speeches to honor those whose lives have been lost.

But later, in the library, the protest became aggressive.

‘I was startled by the aggression from a small minority of students towards students in the library, many of whom were supporters of the movement.’

He added that after making a girl cry, one protester screamed ‘f*** your white tears’ at her.

One protester is seen flipping off the person filming, while another demands they join in, repeatedly asking: ‘Do you think black lives matter?’

According to The Review, one girl was allegedly pinned to a wall by the protesters, who screamed ‘filthy white b****’ at her.

And when one student decided to leave the library, protesters followed her out and hurled profanity at her.

After making a female student in the library cry, one protester reportedly screamed ‘f*** your white tears’ at her. Pictured above: the crowd of protesters clad in black

Those who refused to join the protest were verbally abused and shoved, the Review reported.

But one woman, who said she had attended the protest, defended their actions.

In a post on Facebook, she wrote: ‘We raised hell, we caused discomfort, and we made our voices heard throughout this campus in the name of standing up for our brothers and sisters across the country who are staring terrorism and assault directly in the face.’
