HANNA: The Burke Society chose the wrong speaker

The Edmund Burke Literary and Debating Society hosted former Republican gubernatorial candidate James Fishback Oct. 27 to discuss the future of conservatism as part of his “America’s Next Chapter” tour.

Hearing perspectives we disagree with has value, especially at the university level. However, being controversial does not automatically mean someone has something worthwhile to contribute. Given Fishback’s record of hate and vitriol, the Burke Society should have interrogated what he offered beyond controversy and whether hosting him would advance the civil debate it claims to promote.
