The Bipartisan Assault on Free Speech w/ Greg Lukianoff

Greg Lukianoff is an attorney, author, and president of FIRE, the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression. You may know him from his previous books, The Coddling of the American Mind and The Canceling of the American Mind. His latest book, which was published earlier this summer, is The War on Words, Ten Arguments Against Free Speech—and Why They Fail.  In this episode, we get into why Lukianoff is nota free speech absolutist, how October 7 shifted the campus speech debate, and where protest crosses the line into illegality. We also touch on the rights of visa and green card holders, President Donald Trump’s intimidation tactics, and the troubling free speech climate in the UK. ----- Buy tickets for The Free Press Pittsburgh Debate on September 10th here:https://www.trustarts.org/production/103133 Buy tickets for The Free Press Live at The Comedy Cellar on September 14th here.
