'Hate Speech' Is Still Free Speech: Bill Jacobson on Gibson Bakery vs. Oberlin College

A 130-year-old bakery in Ohio was accused of racism after arresting an Oberlin College student for shoplifting. Hostilities and boycotts against Gibson’s Bakery have escalated into a court case debating free speech. Legal Insurrection, a must-read political and law website, has followed this case since its beginnings in 2016. Bill Jacobson, founder and publisher of Legal Insurrection and director of the Securities Law Clinic at Cornell Law School, shares his insights on Gibson’s Bakery vs. Oberlin College. Jacobson also shares how he turned a hostile greeting at Vassar College into an incredible teaching experience and what his views are on social media censorship.
