Message from the Editor I was lucky to speak with a room full of young people at the Australian Academy of Technological Sciences and Engineering this week, at an ‘ask me anything’ session. So many of them were worried that the university system was not delivering, and that, for students, fear of debt was making them think twice about further education and distorting subject choices.

* The Berkeley Free Speech Movement in 1964 was a pivotal moment in student activism, marking a mass emergence of the university as an openly political space and students as political actors. * The movement was sparked by a ban on political activity on campus, which students defied, leading to suspensions, protests, and a 36-hour siege of a police car. * The Free Speech Movement was a key turning point in the wave of student protest that came to be associated with the 1960s era, and its legacy continues to inspire student activism today. * The movement's demands for free speech and political activity on campus were met with a strong backlash from conservatives and business interests, who began forging billionaire-backed counterinstitutions to reclaim dominance in higher education. * Historian Ellen Schrecker notes that current attacks on higher education may be even worse than the days of McCarthyism, with a massive campaign of political repression targeting students and faculty. * The ongoing repression against college students, particularly for speaking up for Palestine, is expected to intensify under the Trump administration, with dire signs of federal prosecution of campus demonstrators and deportation of international student protesters. * #BerkeleyFreeSpeechMovement * #StudentActivism * #HigherEducation * #FreeSpeech * #UniversityReform * #StudentProtest * #1960sMovement * #CivilRights * #SocialJustice * #UniversityRepression * #TrumpAdministration https://truthout.org/articles/berkeley-free-speech-movement-forged-an-organizing-blueprint-thats-relevant-now/
