Weinstein’s objection to the programming led fifty students to disrupt his class and demand his resignation. The backlash became so intense that Evergreen’s chief of police told him she could not protect him from protesters. As a result, he had to hold his biology course in a public park. On this episode of So to Speak, host Nico Perrino speaks with Weinstein about his experience and the state of free speech and inquiry in higher education and beyond.
