Yale Fascism Expert Flees US for Canada
Yale professor Jason Stanley, author of *How Fascism Works*, is leaving the US for the University of Toronto due to concerns about the current political climate and its potential for authoritarianism. His decision was partly influenced by Columbia University’s capitulation to federal demands, which he views as a dangerous precedent for academic freedom. Stanley believes the current environment poses an unacceptable risk to higher education and the future of democracy, prompting his move to Canada. He sees this not as fleeing, but as joining the international fight against rising authoritarianism.
