The Map of Academic Freedom

NAS Director of Communications David Randall has written an article for American Greatness on the NAS' Academic Freedom Chart. Here's an extract:

Academic freedom. Who isn’t for that? All the Sandra Korns who trump academic freedom with academic justice, who itch to play a Social-Justice Jeffreys, who dream of gibbets and the scarlet harvest of a Kornschina.  The Black Bloc, the Antifa, the fresh-faced Woke, the Eloi with brass-knuckles.

Avert your eyes. Everyone’s in favor of academic freedom.
