Tufts Student Treated Horribly by Classmates for Launching Free Speech Campaign

It’s amazing that a student could be harassed by others for something as simple as promoting free speech.

Student attacked by enraged peers upset at his ‘racist white cis male’ free speech campaignA Tufts University sophomore who recently proposed a sweeping free speech resolution to the campus community has been viciously attacked and maligned on social media by peers who suggest he’s only lobbying for free speech so he can be free to say racist and oppressive things.Jake Goldberg’s resolution calls for an end to campus anti-free speech rules at Tufts, including vague administrative provisos that crack down on the “use of nicknames,” “hurtful words,” “bias-fueled jokes,” “comments on an individual’s body or appearance,” “innuendos of a sexual nature,” “gender bias,” and dozens more similar examples cited in the measure.Goldberg brought forth the resolution on behalf of a relatively new organization he co-created called Students Advocating for Students.
