About this episode
Free speech is under fire at America's universities. It's an open secret that liberals dominate academia and wield their power with impunity on college campuses. But recently, radical leftists have become more brazen with their attempts speech and organizations they don't like. During a recent bipartisan free speech event at Yale Law School, a mob of student protesters shouted down Kristen Waggoner, general counsel of Alliance Defending Freedom. Protesters were "shouting down the speakers, shouting down some of their fellow students who had conservative views, and then they left and started pounding on the walls outside of the exits at the building, eventually creating what felt like an unsafe environment and the police were called," says Waggoner. Waggoner joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to discuss what happened at that Yale event, and how free speech is in decline at America’s universities.
