LISTEN | Full interview with Leslie Klein of Alice magazine: As It Happens 6:08 Student magazines are getting axed under Trump’s anti-diversity measures
Leslie Klein says she was shocked when the student magazine she works for was shut down suddenly this week just because it caters to women readers.
The University of Alabama this week announced the immediate and indefinite closure of two student publications it says run afoul of anti-diversity measures imposed by the Donald Trump administration.
Alice, a magazine centred around women’s issues, and Nineteen Fifty-Six, a Black student publication, both got the axe.
“It feels like our freedom of spee ch and freedom of press have been exceptionally violated here,” Klein, Alice’s managing editor, told As It Happens host Nil Kӧk
