UNC doctoral student and activist Maya Little was arrested by UNC Police on Monday.
A statement from UNC Media Relations said Little was arrested on misdemeanor larceny charges while at a photo exhibit by The Genocide Awareness Project, an anti-abortion display.
An arrest report shows Little was charged with misdemeanor larceny, alleging she “took articles from another individuals hand.” Records show Little was released on a written promise to appear in court on November 6.
Little, an anti-hate and anti-racism activist, has previously been arrested by UNC Police. In early 2018, she was arrested and charged with a misdemeanor count of defacing a public monument after she poured a mixture of ink and blood on Confederate statue Silent Sam. Little was also arrested in December 2018 and charged with two misdemeanors during a protest: inciting a riot and assault on a law enforcement officer.
The Orange County judge hearing Little’s defacing a public monument case continued judgment and waived all costs associated with the ruling in 2019, meaning Little faced no further punishment from the charge.

This poor girl appears to be so full of hate and anger. She sounds dangerous! I hope she gets the mental help she needs before she harms herself or someone else.
Double standards that support and encourage these law breakers. Give the a punishment equal to the crime and stop letting them off the hook.

Btw, most of these “Anti-hate and Anti-fascist” are themselves Fascist and full of hatred towards anything Christian and Constitutional.
Mike, you sound like someone who doesn’t know much about the people you share the planet with. You sound dangerous when you offer such an ignorant opinion. I hope you get the education you need before you harm someone or yourself. Bless your heart.
Maya is my hero!!
Maya Little just wants to find a job – for life. She thinks she’ll find the future by being an activist.
Lpck her the hell up she is a 3 time offender
I hope she does! The world needs more people like her to combat the idiocy that encompassed our country!
Couldn’t agree more. If she had a job she had to go to everyday she would have more important things to worry about. She is the perfect example of the professional student hiding in a college campus for most of their life.
Maya is the perfect example of the worthless, lifelong student hiding out on a college campus. She will never venture out into the real world. She will hide in Chapel Hill for the rest of her life where she can get away with her crap.
Lol. Hypocrite.

You are a “student” only while in class at your desk or the chalkboard.
Smashing things in a mob makes you a street thug.
Street thugs get arrested, not “doctoral students”.

Maya Little is a poster child for the “Loony Left.” She is a dangerous, hate-filled individual, and continued lenient treatment by liberal Orange County judges only encourages her and others to commit more and more crimes. She and her Antifa domestic terrorist thug-wannabees need to be arrested, charged, and sentenced to the maximum penalties allowed by law. Furthermore, defacing and destroying public or private monuments, statues, graves, or ANYTHING, regardless of whether it’s Confederate-related or World War 1 or 2, Korea, Vietnam, or other conflicts, should be classified as FELONIES and treated as such. What does it take for our government to take strong action, for someone to be killed?
Anti-hate activist? This woman seems to have zero tolerance for divergent opinions…..similar to those who slammed Ellen DeGeneres for sitting next to George W. Bush at a football game! If respect and kindness are due only those who think/behave exactly the same as I, I should cut my Christmas gift list in half this year!
The laws are on the books but until we have judges with a spine stronger than a wet noodle the haters are going to continue to wreck havoc on our landscape and attempt to ruin everything that is decent and moral.
I’m wondering a few things: 1) Why does someone who says she is anti-hate incite a riot and assault a police officer? 2) Why is assault on a police officer only a misdemeanor? 3) Why does someone who is an activist against hate (which I would think would also mean she is against meanness and intolerance)that only her views have the right to be heard (hence her stealing documents from the pro life group) and 4) How is speaking out against the killing of millions of innocent unborn babies hatred???
Keep letting the ignorant liberal[removed] [removed] get away with crimes she’ll keep doing it.
So anti hate is she, seems to hate everything that’s not abliging her liberal[removed] ideology
What gets me is that she is from the Northeast–Maine, I think? Wherever it is, WHY does she think she needs to rule our society in North Carolina and WHY doesn’t she go back to her home to make political statements? THAT would be the right thing for her to do like so many other transplants here to North Carolina who do not have ancestors buried all over the place, who do not REALLY know the history of our state, but who believe it is their GOD-GIVEN RIGHT to change OUR society here. WHAT’S KEEPING HER FROM DOING ALL THIS POLITICAL ACTIVISM AT HER OWN HOME? (from someone whose family began cutting down the trees and fighting the snakes and bears here in 1740…matter of fact, whose ancestor attended UNCCH in 1840, too…DO I HAVE A VOICE HERE IN MY OWN HOME?)
UNC needs to clean up the staff. How many Antifa members are on staff? How many marxists teachers? How many communist teachers? How many BAMN teachers? Many I suspect, leading to UNC loosing donations and qualifty of education.
We need more conservative professors at the universities and in all educational grades. Universities are places to learn critical thinking, to search for the truth.
They’ve sadly become Socialist indoctrination centers.
One thing is for sure Maya needs to catch a salad
