The Feminist Case for Free Speech

The Feminist Case for Free Speech
Free speech is too important to give up on. "Safe-space culture is toxic. I believe wholeheartedly in the collective organization of marginalized groups, in people gathering together politically along the lines of race, sex, sexuality, etc., but the concept of a safe-space has been fetishized by student politics, warped into something it was never meant to be: collective organisation was about taking radical political action, not creating an emotional comfort blanket for those under 25s traumatized by the horrifying prospect of hearing an opinion contrary to their own."
