In this episode of Conversations with the President, President Joseph Harroz Jr. welcomes Dr. Wilfred McClay — acclaimed historian, author, and former OU faculty member — for a timely discussion on the meaning and importance of free speech in today’s world. Drawing from his keynote address, “Speech as a Middle Ground,” Dr. McClay explores how speech serves as a vital bridge between thought and action, and how true dialogue can help bridge divides in an era of polarization and rapid technological change.
