David Myers

David Cole, former National Legal Director of the ACLU, and David Myers, a distinguished professor at UCLA, dive into the tension between the Trump administration and American universities. They discuss the alarming funding cuts aimed at enforcing compliance on social issues. The arrest of Palestinian student activist Mahmoud Khalil raises critical questions on free speech and the implications for Jewish students. The conversation also touches on the historical parallels to McCarthyism and the need for universities to defend inclusivity and resist authoritarian pressures.
