 Many Americans celebrated the end of Roe vs Wade. Others are deeply angered and worried. The question of abortion is not a simple one, and merits thoughtful discourse and kindness rather than hysteria or trimphalism. Any discussion also requires a real look at the facts; what is the legal basis of this ruling? Where does the pro-life movement stand? What does pro-choice Americans really want? In this episode we try to provide a model for how to approach the conversations ahead with Robby George, one of our nation’s most respected political philosophers. Robert George is the sixth McCormick professor of jurisprudence and the director of the James Madison program in American Ideals and Institutions at Princeton University. He is a past winner of the American Enterprise Institute's Irving Kristol Award.Download the transcript here.

WTH Is Going On In Post-Roe America? Robby George on How We Can Have A Respectful Compassionate Debate on Abortion

Cherise and Professor Robby George discuss the history of academic freedom and what its status is today on college campuses. Universities are meant to be truth-seeking institutions that allow for the exploration of ideas through the encouragement of intellectual curiosity. But we have continually seen professors and university staff get fired for not bowing down to the woke mob and for challenging their students to think outside of the box that is far-left progressivism. Courage is not just lacking on the side of the students who are now self-censoring more than ever, it is lacking in the faculty as well. With the prevailing bias on university campuses, will academic freedom ever truly exist?
