Arizona State University finds itself at the centre of a free speech storm after organisers of the Unf*ck America Tour announced they were suing the university over a cancelled campus event. The Monday event was set to feature political streamer Destiny, whose online handle is @TheOmniLiberal, and organisers allege that Erika Kirk, CEO and chair of Turning Point USA, was directly involved in its cancellation.
Organiser Zee Cohen-Sanchez stated in a public post that Kirk appeared on campus and expressed complaints about the upcoming event. According to Cohen-Sanchez, Kirk also instructed members of her chapter to prioritise free speech issues over other matters. Tempelocal has not independently confirmed Kirk's involvement, but the claim has already sparked heated debate online.
