Summary

“When I turn on my TV and I see groups of students yelling 'Gas the Jews!'—that's not freedom of speech. That's something else. That's calling for murder. That's supporting killing innocent people. How can we be supportive of that?”

In this episode, we sit down with Tabia Lee, a former DEI educator at De Anza College in California. She was fired after refusing to follow the college's woke social justice orthodoxy. Today, she is trying to reform California’s mandatory ethnic studies high school curriculum, which she argues is infused with extremist ideology, including antisemitism.

“I never thought I would see something like that in America—the support of terrorist groups and terrorist actions from our students,” Lee says.
