The Foundation Against Intolerance and Racism (FAIR) is a nonpartisan organization dedicated to advancing civil rights and liberties for all Americans, and promoting a common culture based on fairness, understanding and humanity.
Thank you Cory, Kameron, MacKinnon and Michael for standing up to this nonsense. If just hearing or seeing photographs of a noxious sign held by the Westboro Baptist Church puts you in such a tither that you can't study for two weeks, then you don't belong in law school, but rather in intensive mental health treatment. This is especially true for those seeking to become lawyers, because there are many areas of law where you will encounter people behaving badly and in disgusting ways. How can you study the law regarding human trafficking, rape, child abuse, etc. without describing 'triggering' topics?
Not only that, but as a lawyer you're going to have to apply the law equally (sometimes especially) to people who have behaved badly.
Well done, you brilliant young people.

Way to go Cory, Kameron, MacKinnon, and Michael! We must be able to separate ideas from identities.
This is really cool. I didn’t know you guys did mini docs. Keep going. You’re starting to gain momentum.
Ive seen this type of thing at my law school too its not good
God, I'm glad I'm not in university any more. I would only last one semester before getting kicked out.
I know right. They’re creating an environment where disagreeable people effectively can’t get an education. How is that not oppressive discrimination?
On campus and in extracurriculars I have always been open to discussion and discourse, challenging the ideas of others. I’m also in my 30’s (I started college late) so I don’t listen to anyone about “what not to talk about.”
I have also been self studying politics for about 13 years and the hard sciences for about 15, so I keep a list of citations for my arguments and am a practiced speaker. Sometimes it takes great argumentation and careful use of tone to sway even the most hardened opponent. It’s a subtle form of manipulation, but I believe it is warranted in today’s society. 😁
So proud of these young people for standing up to one of the hardest social movements that has hit our nation in recent decades: the Cancel Culture. I hope you gain more supporters and give courage to the few who believe in free and open discourse no matter the subject.
"they can't kick me out" - but unfortunately they can destroy your chances of a career
That's why you do this as a group--there is strength in numbers. It's a lot harder to harm four people whistle blowing about the same problem than it is to harm one whistle blower. I know. I'm a successful whistle blower. Twice, I decided not to whistle blow because I calculated that that the chances of success were low and the risks to me were too high.
These people sound like they've read John Stuart Mill!
I could do without the emotionally manipulative bad guy music, but otherwise I appreciate the opportunity for these students to be able to speak up (and their bravery for doing so).
I have lived in Atl for my whole life, and I had no clue Emory was so absurd. I can tell you their professional doctors do not all agree.
That’s big bc Emory is as woke as it gets.
Hello from Finland! I just woke up 😉
This is a major embarrassment for Emory University, and universities nationwide. We must expose these institutions as the totalitarian echo chambers that they are. Ideological conformity is not a goal - it is a human disaster!
when will we stop this nonsense!?
This is a good start.
free speech is fine ... as long as it's approved
