Update. Bravo to the Knight First Amendment Institute ( @knightcolumbia) for weighing in against the #IHRA definition of #antisemitism.
https://knightcolumbia.org/content/knight-institute-sounds-alarm-over-new-restrictions-on-campus-speech

"It’s disappointing that some of the nation’s leading institutions of higher education are agreeing to curtail and punish criticism of #Israel in the name of fighting discrimination [and antisemitism]. As major free speech groups have recognized, using the IHRA definition of antisemitism to delineate the outer boundaries of free speech will have the effect of proscribing or deterring legitimate political speech and scholarship. The lawyer who drafted the IHRA definition has raised similar concerns."
