Elite Universities That Defended Free Speech For Hamas Supporters Have Long Record Of Canceling Conservatives

Harvard University and the University of Pennsylvania released statements in the past week claiming to be pro-free speech, but experts say they often don’t support free speech for conservatives.
Harvard University President Claudine Gay and UPenn President Elizabeth Magill both said their respective universities support “free expression” in statements claiming their universities stand behind the free speech of their students.
 
“It’s been incredibly telling what so many universities are and are not willing to take a strong moral stance. These elite schools were very, very willing to speak up in support of BLM and to speak up in support of Ukraine, but you look at how they treated the absolute horror that’s being inflicted upon Israel right now, and so many schools were reluctant to take that strong moral stance,” Angela Morabito, a visiting fellow at the Independent Women’s Forum and the spokesperson for the Defense of Freedom Institute, told the DCNF.

Harvard University and the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) released statements defending students’ pro-Hamas speech after campus protests, but in the past have muzzled conservatives for speech and online statements.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
