    About this series

    Join Albert A. Anderson as he delves into Plato's Allegory of the Cave, unraveling its metaphorical layers to illuminate the transformative journey from ignorance to knowledge. Through Socratic dialogue and dialectic, Anderson explores the role of questioning and critical inquiry in uncovering truth, urging listeners to transcend the shadows of perception and embrace the pursuit of deeper understanding.

      In the Debate Over Campus Free Speech, Who Are the Real Special Snowflakes?

      Sep 30, 2017

      MANY CONSERVATIVES BELIEVE THAT UNIVERSITIES AND colleges have become illiberal spaces that stifle free speech.

With horror, they recall what happened to Charles Murray at Middlebury College and list examples of coddled students protesting the likes of Condoleezza Rice. All of which reflects, they believe, a broader culture on campuses designed to quarantine students from d
