This Election Day, parents can engage their children in their civic responsibilities in a simple way: by bringing them to the polls. Involving younger generations in the voting process has the potential to ignite a lifelong commitment to democratic participation and strengthen our democracy as a whole. Samuel Abrams emphasizes the role of family, community, and early exposure has a key role shaping an individual's relationship with voting and civic duty, which cannot be ignored, especially on important days like today.

Harvard's Widener Library has long served as a sanctuary for learning and intellectual pursuit on Cambridge campus. Recently, this institution found itself at the center of controversy when faculty members conducted a "silent study-in" protest in its main reading room, challenging the library's fundamental role as a neutral space for scholarship. The ensuing suspension of faculty library access has sparked a crucial debate about the delicate balance between political expression and preserving spaces dedicated to undisturbed academic pursuit. Samuel Abrams from Sarah Lawrence College shares that while Harvard's libraries have always been platforms for diverse ideas within their collections, the question of whether their physical spaces should remain politically neutral touches on the core mission of academic libraries as welcoming havens for all seekers of knowledge.

In the wake of rising antisemitism, particularly following the October 7 attack on Israel, American synagogues face a crucial moment to redefine their role in Jewish communities. As safe havens and community anchors, these "houses of assembly" have the potential to provide much-needed support, especially for Jewish college students facing unprecedented challenges on campuses. Samuel Abrams from Sarah Lawrence College discusses how synagogues can transform into dynamic spaces that offer more than just religious services, becoming centers of community, comfort, and resilience

The heated debates surrounding campus protests have captivated the nation's attention. While images of disruptive demonstrations flood social media, recent polls offer a more nuanced perspective on where students and the broader public stand. As university leaders grapple with balancing free speech and campus safety, they must navigate a complex landscape shaped by diverse viewpoints and societal undercurrents. The middle majority needs to speak up and demand better than what the extremist views are saying. Samuel Abrams from Sarah Lawrence College joins the show.

Boyd finishes the day by reminiscing about his conversation with Samuel Abrams about college protests and its portrayal on social media. There was so much instant certainty when the protests first started but now we have some data about what is really happening and being said - and that is not always the same story as the headlines. Young voters have been made out to be this mystical, saving grace of society but they are just normal people worried about the same things as the rest of society. Sometimes our desires to label and put each other in a box does not create a flourishing community. You need to step back, ask better questions, and listen to find even better solutions.

Everyday we get closer to November and Americans get more exasperated with their choices for President. Perhaps most notably, all eyes are on our youngest voters. Despite Gen Z's impressive turnout in 2020, their despondence this election cycle is making us wonder if they'll show up to the polls at all. Some people call in democratic negligence, Gen Z says it's a consequence of the government's actions. Political Science Professsor at Sarah Lawrence College and Fellow at AEI, Samuel Abrams joins the show.

The Republican Party has been quick to dismiss college students as liberal leaning, inconsequential voters. But a new poll shows these young adults may be more moderate than they get credit for. Sarah Lawrence College professor Sam Abrams has a new piece in Real Clear Education arguing that GOP candidates hoping to secure a congressional seat in the midterms...or the presidency in 2024...should start engaging young people.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As democracias experimentam um processo de polarização política cada vez mais radical. Já não se trata só da contraposição entre preferências políticas ou afiliações partidárias, mas do antagonismo de afetos. Assim, a avaliação de governos e lideranças e o debate público ficam menos submetidos a considerações racionais e mais a sentimentos - por definição, irracionais. Pesquisas na ciência política e noutras ciências sociais buscam compreender o fenômeno que ocorre no Brasil e noutras democracias, especialmente onde cresce o populismo. Esse assunto tem sido objeto da atenção do convidado deste episódio do #ForadaPolíticaNãoháSalvação. É ele o cientista político Marcus André Melo, professor titular da Universidade Federal de Pernambuco e ex-professor visitante no MIT e na universidade de Yale. Marcus Melo é também colunista da Folha de S. Paulo, publicando semanalmente textos de análise política fortemente ancorados no estado da arte da produção científica. Em diversas de suas últimas colunas ele tem abordado com especial atenção a questão da polarização afetiva. Twitter de Marcus André Melo: @MAMELO O episódio está repleto de indicações de leitura para quem desejar se aprofundar no assunto, dentre elas trabalhos de: David Samuels e Cesar Zucco.

The University of North Carolina System’s controversial chairman has resigned from that post. Harry Smith’s decision shakes up the university’s Board of Governors as that board deals with other leadership issues. That includes the search for a new system president and for a new chancellor at the flagship campus in Chapel Hill. Rick Henderson, Carolina Journal editor-in-chief, assesses UNC’s leadership challenges. Sarah Lawrence College political scientist Samuel Abrams unleashed a wave of criticism when he decided to write in the New York Times about the lack of ideological diversity on college campuses. Abrams traveled to Raleigh this year to discuss the controversy during a speech for the James G. Martin Center for Academic Renewal. Abrams shared themes from that presentation with Carolina Journal Radio. State lawmakers agree N.C. counties should replace voting machines that lack a paper record. Disagreement remains about when. Counties have asked for another extension of a deadline to make the change. The extension would extend past the 2020 elections. You’ll hear highlights from legislative debate about that proposal. The controversial N.C. House vote to override Gov. Roy Cooper’s veto of the state budget bill has led to a war of words between the chamber’s top Democrat and Republican. You’ll learn why House Minority Leader Darren Jackson, D-Wake, labeled his Republican counterparts “liars.” You’ll hear the response from House Speaker Tim Moore, R-Cleveland, about Jackson’s partisan motives. Some politicians, including Cooper, want to move toward greater use of electric vehicles. Forcing the change could lead to unintended negative environmental consequences. That’s the conclusion from Donald van der Vaart, John Locke Foundation senior fellow. Van der Vaart explains how a large increase in electric vehicle use could affect other energy resources.

His office door was vandalized. He was accused of causing “harm” to his “college community.” There was even a demand — supported by dozens of his faculty peers — to review his tenure.Why? Because he wrote an op-ed in The New York Times arguing for more viewpoint diversity at his campus. On today’s episode of So to Speak: The Free Speech Podcast, Sarah Lawrence College professor Samuel Abrams joins us to discuss the response to his op-ed and the future of academic freedom, viewpoint diversity, and the role of faculty in college life.Also joining us is FIRE President & CEO Greg Lukianoff, author of The New York Times bestseller “The Coddling of the American Mind,” due out in paperback edition on Aug. 20.

When Professor Samuel Abrams of Sarah Lawrence College wrote an opinion piece for The New York Times in October 2018, he didn't expect a stunning  backlash from students, faculty and administrators. The episode has become one of the hottest touchpoints in the national conversation on academic freedom and viewpoint diversity. In this podcast, Abrams joins former University of Pennsylvania trustee Paul Levy and ACTA president Michael Poliakoff for a penetrating discussion on the threats that campus monocultures pose to freedom of expression, reasonable debate and dialogue in higher education.

In this episode, Chris, Bryan, and Melanie take a broad look at the administration's FY2020 defense budget request. They discuss whether or not it is the "masterpiece" that Pat Shanahan promised, and agree (!) that the budget process is in need of serious reform. They ask whether it aligns with the National Defense Strategy, what Congress (especially the Democratic House with many domestic priorities) will think of it, and how it will be paid for in a time of ever-growing deficits. Finally, Chris takes the secretary of state to task, Melanie is irritated with what's going on in higher ed, and Bryan welcomes a friend home.   Links "Defense Budget Overview: United States Department of Defense Fiscal Years 2020 Budget Request" Marcus Weisgerber, "2020 Budget Request Reveals Slow Shift Toward Great Power War," Defense One, March 2019 John McCormack, "Why Did Ben Sasse Vote to Uphold the National Emergency?"
