- Summary:
- "At the heart of this debate is the question of 'safe spaces'--places where students can be free of racist, sexist, or other derogatory speech. Such places, some argue, provide a refuge from bigotry and oppression by allowing students the opportunituy to express themselves in an empathetic and civil environment. But others argue that, however well-intended, safe spaces threaten free speech and undermine the resilience of people who will face controversial issues in the larger world. Are safe spaces a legitimate and necessary component of modern education, or are they a misguided concept that coddles young minds."--Container.
- Safe places, some argue, provide a refuge from bigotry and oppression by allowing students the opportunity to express themselves in an empathetic and civil environment. Others argue that, however well-intended, safe spaces threaten free speech and undermine the resilience of people who will face controversial issues in the larger world. Are safe spaces a legitimate and necessary component of modern education, or are they a misguided concept that coddles young minds? Are safe spaces dangerous?
