Letter to the Editor | NU culture crusaders hurt us progressives
Written by Black Hot Fire Network on October 31, 2024
Northwestern students perfectly encapsulate a significant element of the parasite eating away at the credibility of the progressive movement we are trying to advance in American politics.
Too often, our generation of college students bites its tongue instead of speaking its mind. Too often, we walk on eggshells while rephrasing and parroting or “piggybacking off of,” the comments our classmates make before us. Too often, we hesitate to ask the questions at the forefront of our minds.
Prestigious universities like NU appeal to curious young people because their classrooms are supposedly forums for productive disagreement . . .
