/492/ The Armed Wing of the Deplatforming Movement ft. Alex Gourevitch

On the right to protest. [For the full episode, subscribe at patreon.com/bungacast] Contributing editor Alex Gourevitch talks to Alex H and George about restrictions on speech and protest at US universities and beyond – particularly with regard to Palestine solidarity demonstrations. How have uni administrators not just undermined by seemingly attacked the right to protest? Why is Trump going after the universities this way? How have progressives undermined the right of protest by talking up the role of 'harm'? How have pro-Israel groups been complicit in treating political speech as an attack on identities? Why have so many authorities chosen the defence of Israel as their hill to die on?
