"Harry Potter" author J.K. Rowling, New York Times opinion editor Bari Weiss and political activist Noam Chomsky are a few of more than 100 names attached to the piece titled "A Letter on Justice and Open Debate" that was published Tuesday in Harper's Magazine. "Our cultural institutions are facing a moment of trial," [URL='https://harpers.org/a-letter-on-justice-and-open-debate/']the letter begins[/URL]. "Powerful protests for racial and social justice are leading to overdue demands for police reform, along with wider calls for greater equality and inclusion across our society, not least in higher education, journalism, philanthropy, and the arts." "But this needed reckoning has also intensified a new set of moral attitudes and political commitments that tend to weaken our norms of [B]open debate[/B] and [B]toleration of differences in favor of ideological conformity[/B]. As we applaud the first development, we also raise our voices against the second." [MEDIA=youtube]1XgL8LkT3Ko[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
