Summary

Free speech has been under attack for a long time on college campuses. Now more than ever, students and parents need tools to navigate the woke culture within education. “I think we see college administrators giving themselves huge powers because … they have these speech codes, where they ban 'hateful' speech, 'offensive' speech, and sure, that sounds fine, but let's think who's defining those terms,” Nicole Neily says. “It's not a constitutional scholar. It's some petty tyrant with a huge amount of discretion to pick winners and losers.” Neily, the founder of Speech First and Parents Defending Education, two organizations fighting for civil liberties and education in America, joins the podcast to discuss her storied career and commitment to the fight for free speech on college campuses. Neily also discusses why she's sued some of the nation's largest universities, and the turning point we find ourselves in in America's education system. Enjoy the show! Hosted on Acast.

But I know for many of you listening, you're probably starting to think about and getting ready to return to your college campuses in the fall or maybe you're headed off to school for the first time. And in all likelihood, unless you attend one of a handful of schools across the country, you're probably headed to a college campus that leans pretty heavily to the left.
