Is Academic Freedom Being Used to Shield Racism in Higher Education?
Manage episode 447272210 series 3575095
Is academic freedom a shield for hate speech, or should educators be held accountable for perpetuating racism? Karen & Brittany confront the provocative actions of Professor Amy Wax at the University of Pennsylvania, whose racially insensitive remarks have sparked controversy.
As we dissect her advocacy for "cultural distance nationalism" and the alarming public disclosure of student grades by race, we tackle the profound implications of such biases within academia. A law professor's influential role should never amplify harmful ideologies, and this episode stresses the urgent need for vigilance and accountability in educational settings.
