Free speech on campus
Hello again, I’m back with something I forgot to mention in my newsletter yesterday. Tomorrow night, 7pm UK time, Free Speech Champions is hosting a free online event on free speech and universities, featuring my fellow Free Speech Champion and Edinburgh student Sam Bayliss, journalist Charlie Peters, Dr Neil Thin, and Professor Ellie Lee.
Dr Thin was recently targeted at Edinburgh by a cancellation mob, while Professor Lee has recently publicly criticised Kent University’s new ‘Expect Respect’ diversity module. Sam has also had a brush with campus censoriousness.
So, it’ll be an interesting event, and there’s still plenty of time to sign up. As I said, it’s free: you just have to register to receive a Zoom link. See HERE.
