The Atlas Society Asks Dorian Abbot

Join our CEO, Jennifer Grossman, and Professor Dorian Abbot on the 97th episode of The Atlas Society Asks. Listen as two discuss his experience of being canceled for expressing views at odds within "woke" academia, the status of open inquiry on campus, and his work to dismantle "Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion."

----------------------------------------------

Dorian Abbot is a geophysicist and a professor at the University of Chicago. He was canceled late last year from performing a lecture at MIT by “woke” graduate students, upset with a series of YouTube videos by Abbot where he advocated for academic freedom of discussion and merit-based entry evaluations. Abbot refused to bow down to the mob and has continued to speak out against Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, as it is currently implemented on campus. Instead, he has written several op-eds advocating for an unbiased, individual-oriented framework called “Merit, Fairness, and Equality.”
