A new production of the Academic Freedom Alliance

|The Volokh Conspiracy |


I am pleased to note that the Academic Freedom Alliance has launched a new podcast, The Academic Freedom Podcast. New episodes should drop every month or so and explore issues relating to academic freedom and campus free speech.

The first episode is now available, and it consists of the audio recording of the webinar panel that the AFA recently hosted on the landmark 6th circuit case on First Amendment protections for academic freedom and classroom speech by professors. The case is Meriwether v. Hartop. For that conversation, I was joined by Jeannie Suk Gersen, Steve Sanders, and Volokh Conspiracy co-blogger Jonathan Adler.

You can download it here, and at all your favorite podcast platforms. I hope you will subscribe so that you will not miss future episodes that will include a mix of thematic panel discussions and guest interviews. I suppose I should say that I hope you will leave a rave review and favorable rating so as to make it easier for others to find the podcast and help spread the message of free speech and free minds.
