Free speech and academic freedom are under attack in American higher education. From the right the allegation is that wokeness and political correctness have taken over, articulating a political agenda that is anti-white, anti-Christian, anti-capitalism, and pro LGBTQ. From the left the indictment is that schools continue to replicate stereotypes in their curriculum that perpetuate discrimination against marginalized groups. Efforts by administrators to police curriculum raise concerns about academic freedom among faculty, whereas doing nothing leaves students feeling they are victims of institutional biases and unresponsive to them.
