    “Project Censored’s list of the top stories that get very little mainstream me- dia traction should in fact drive the reporting agendas of every major news outlet. These 25 stories are clearly the most consequential of the year, and what is scary in looking at the list is how obvious it is that silencing reports of these themes protects corrupt governments and corporate gatekeepers.

  • From: Isaac Kamola, Associate Professor of Political Science
    From: Isaac Kamola, Associate Professor of Political Science, Trinity College, Hartford, CT ([email protected]) To: Higher Education and Employment Advancement Committee Date: March 5, 2020 Re: HB 5355 AN ACT CONCERNING FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION ON COLLEGE CAMPUSES - Oppose Dear chairs, ranking members, and distinguished members of the Higher Education and Employment Advancement Committee. I am writing to the committee in opposition of HB 5355 An Act Concerning Freedom of Expression on College Campuses. As a scholar working on dark money influence in higher education, this bill raises considerable concerns. Campus free speech bills are popping up at state legislatures across the country, in addition to being issued by executive order from the White House. On face, campus free speech bills appear to be common sense statements about the importance of free speech on college campuses. However, they should instead be understood as part of a broader political strategy among private and corporate entities to undermine existing standards and professional norms that currently govern the difficult issues around preserving academic and free speech on college and university campuses. Institutions must be free to address these complicated issues according to the mission and professional standards, not through legislative imposition. For context: Over the past few years there have been a large number of high-profile examples used to build the argument that conservative speech is stifled on college campuses. In many instances, the examples pointed to involve students protesting controversial conservative speakers, including Milo Yiannopoulos, Ben Shapiro, Charles Murray as well as Lucian Wintrich at UConn in 2017. This now common narrative of student protestors denying the free speech of conservative speakers becomes much more complicated, however, if one looks into the considerable funding and organized partisan machinery that makes these campus confrontations possible.

He painted a bleak picture of America: a nation of crumbling, third-world infrastructure, “rusted-out factories,” leaky borders, inner cities wallowing in pov- erty, a depleted military and a feckless political class that prospered as the country fell into ruin. He promised an “America First” policy that would turn it all around. “This American carnage stops right here and stops right now,” Trump declared. The inaugural address echoed the themes of a campaign that had electrified the white nationalist – or “alt-right” – movement with its promise to stop all Muslim travelers at the border and deport millions of undocumented immigrants – killers and “rapists,” Trump called them.

  • From Alt Right to Alt Lite: Naming the Hate
    From Alt Right to Alt Lite: Naming the Hate Reuters In just one year, the alt right has gone from relative obscurity to being one of the United States' most visible extremist movements. This stratospheric rise is due in large part to the rhetoric employed during the 2016 presidential campaign, which granted implicit approval to the once-taboo hallmarks of the far right – overt racism, anti-Semitism, xenophobia, misogyny, and anti-Muslim bigotry. The alt right capitalized on the moment by amplifying those messages while loudly rejecting mainstream conservatism and its followers (often referred to as “cucks”). You can’t discuss the alt right without mentioning the “alt lite,” a loosely connected movement of right-wing activists who reject the overtly white 1 / 34 supremacist ideology of the alt right, but whose hateful impact is more significant than their “lite” name suggests. The alt lite embraces misogyny and xenophobia, and abhors “political correctness” and the left. While the alt right has been around for years, the current iteration is still figuring out what it is – and isn’t. And it’s early days for the alt lite, which means both movements’ ideologies are still somewhat fluid, as are the lines that separate them. Numerous examples in our list of “Who’s Who” demonstrate that “membership” in the alt lite does not preclude working with people on the alt right (and vice versa). What is the Alt Right?
