The Dissidents A Moral Moment: Winkfield Twyman Jr. on Harvard President Claudine Gay
Winkfield Twyman Jr., former law school professor, writer, and Harvard Law School graduate, joins Elizabeth Spievak for a discussion about Claudine Gay. Wink questions the moral courage of Harvard's president and has called for her resignation. Gay's recent congressional testimony is discussed as an example of what is a larger problem on college campuses and beyond. We talk about what it means to have a moral compass, historical and contemporary examples of moral courage, and what can and should be expected of leaders. Throughout, the issues and challenges are framed in the context of liberal values.
