Many universities are struggling to reconcile the principles of free expression with campus safety. While deliberative speech is vital, activist speech also plays a key role in social change.
True activist speech is not peripheral to the university mission; it embodies values of equality, free expression, and emancipation that are essential to higher education.
The safety issues surrounding activist speech vary greatly depending on individual cases, and cannot be uniformly attributed to the speech itself.
Charging activist speech as a threat to university values overlooks how such movements often emerge as necessary responses to universities' contradictory actions.
