‘ To suppress free speech is a double wrong. It violates the rights of the hearer as well as those of the speaker.’
Frederick DouglassThe horrific acts of violence and inhumanity by Hamas against Israeli civilians must be condemned by any and all who value the sanctity of human life unfortunately for far too many people the pursuit of vengeance is championed instead
Apparently it is wrong to seek peace and the end of violence in Gaza to conflate every Palestinian as a supporter of Hamas is an acceptable narrative in far too many American Media Platforms
When one dares to seek peace and the end of violence in Gaza and offers up a narrative and opinion that is not reflective of the majority of politicians and media talking heads one immediately becomes a candidate for cancel culture and viscous attacks on one’s character
I refuse to surrender my humanity and respect for all life rather I stand for the pursuit of peace and the dignity of all lives without any reservations or retreat .
Join me in the pursuit of speech that is not censored or subjected to sanctions or being added to a Blacklist that is growing and expanding in America
It is critical to a maturing democracy and our sovereignty that Academic Freedoms cannot be extinguished on our college and university campuses .
Citizens of America have constitutional protections against government interference and sanctions against speech by our government. We can’t allow foreign nations and politicians to ban and censor speech in any context War or no War.
