Pro-Palestine Protests in the US Continue with No End In Sight | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

There are no signs the pro-Palestinian protests in the US are ending anytime soon. Campuses throughout the country are following Columbia University's lead. They are demanding the schools cut ties with Israeli institutions. The University of Southern California has canceled its main commencement next month citing new safety measures. Professor at the University of Notre Dame School of Law, Stephanie Barclay, joins to explain the dividing line between freedom of speech and demonstration and the rights of the schools to regulate or stop those actions. Barclay tells us how it differs when we look at public schools versus private schools. We've seen a number of college presidents struggle to set policy on what speech violates codes of conduct. Barclay shares what the law says on this and whether it is different in a college environment. She discusses whether the fact that some of this speech is religious in nature complicates how schools and public officials go about managing the demonstrations. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
