I had been invited to give a talk at Winchester University on 1st March 2019 by the Professor of Masculinities there, Eric Anderson. I believe that proper permission had been obtained, but in the event there was a student-led petition against it. The result was that Eric was put under a lot of stress over the matter and I and the other invited speaker (William Collins) volunteered to pull out from concern over Eric.
So that the students and academics at the University of Winchester (and others) can read what I’d planned to say, the transcript of my speech is (redacted).
I anticipate that many more people will engage with the contents of my talk, and the contents of William Collins’s talk, when they learn about the impact of the student-led petition on free speech.
