Supporting Academic Freedom for students and scholars in subject areas under siege.

[ALT LIBERAL ARTS @AltLiberalArts]

We're building an online institute for #AcademicFreedom following the hostile takeover of @NewCollegeofFL, which has caused 40% of the faculty to flee, leaving students in chaos. Courses under threat of censorship will be announced soon.

A cache of emails from school attorneys in FL reveals chaos, confusion, and fear, over the last year, as they tried to interpret vague new state laws and whether they need to ban books. This is the #EdScare. #BookBans

Thank you for the support and for sharing!

Do not miss the latest on book bans. They are getting worse—a 33% spike over the previous school year with Florida taking the lead with the most books banned. Children should never be taken hostage by the political agenda of politicians.
