New ‘FIREside Chats’ Podcast Available
In today's episode of FIREside Chats, FIRE Vice President Robert Shibley and Justice Robert H. Jackson Fellow Azhar Majeed discuss Keith John Sampson's case at Indiana University – Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI). Sampson, a student-employee, was found guilty of racial harassment for reading the book Notre Dame vs. the Klan: How the Fighting Irish Defeated the Ku Klux Klan during his breaks from work. Azhar has been following this case closely and recently wrote an op-ed for the Indianapolis Star about it.
Continue to check back for updates on IUPUI, and join us next week for another episode of FIREside Chats, when we review our recent case at Colorado College.
