Join me for the first part of a fascinating discussion with a panel of Professors, lecturers & PhDs (@Katja_Thieme, @Matthewasears, @ETVPod) - all people who are immersed in present-day campus culture, much more than myself.We talk about the fears surrounding 'SJWs'. While there are definitely overzealous/bad actors on the left too, these fears and criticisms often seem disproportionate to me...especially in an era where far-right dangers and hate crimes are on the rise, where there are incredibly serious threats to free speech coming from people in powerful positions. We discuss the proportionality of these criticisms and much more. Part 2 will be out next week hopefully, earlier for patrons!
