I'd been curious to see if the AAUP would chime in after headline after headline about Professor X saying something racist and/or offensive related to the national police brutality protests. To recap, there's been Charles Negy at UCFhttps://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/05/us/ucf-professor-charles-negy-race.html …
Do you think free speech should still be protected given current circumstances? Genuinely curious.

I do, but I also think it's reasonable for students in said professor's class to feel excluded by espoused racist views. Or for that prof's conduct to be biased. The tldr version: free speech in higher ed is often about more than just the speech itself.

Yep. And also, conservative, centrist, libertarian, & Christian students often feel alienated, marginalized, intimidated, & silenced by faculty who make fun of their views on social media. Awareness & tolerance needs to be raised in many ways.
