Pre-Premiere Screening of Freedoms Under Assault

This event is free and not ticketed.

Freedoms under Assault is a powerful full-length documentary that chronicles the systematic destruction of a world-class university and the politically motivated culture war against its faculty over a two-year period. A perfect storm of an autocratic university president collaborating with a supermajority reactionary state legislature following the ideological agenda of the White House has effectively curtailed the institutional autonomy of Indiana University as well as shared governance structures academic freedom free speech and assembly rights tenure and the viability of arts and humanities programs.

The documentary shows the lengths to which a university administration is willing to silence intimidate persecute and even exile faculty members in accord with arbitrary policies and “financial exigencies.” The film is co-directed/produced by Robert Arnove IU Chancellor’s Professor Emeritus of Education and award-winning documentarian Jacky Comforty.
