generate more good and less evil. On this account, we should sacrifice one life in order to save many.

Our real lives almost never force us to choose the lesser of two evils in such dramatic ways, but Spencer’s visit does pose some hard moral choices – although one of them is not whether Spencer’s racist ideology is morally acceptable. There was no debate about that in Gainesville; our community is united in rejecting Spencer’s ideology. The dilemmas, as I see them, are rather about how institutions and individuals should respond in a situation when it seems we must choose among important values such as free speech, peace, racial justice and social equality.

UF denied Spencer’s initial request to speak. He threatened to sue, as he has successfully done at other institutions, including Auburn University. After extensive legal negotiations, administrators accepted his visit as an CONTINUED ON PAGE 4

motives.” It is “a sacred unconditional command of reason” always to tell the truth, even to a murderer asking the location of his intended victim. Judicial interpretations of the First Amendment follow the same logic: The right to free speech must be universal, with no exceptions. Thus, Nazis and white supremacists must be allowed to speak freely, even at a university campus where no one seems to want them, and even when their speech openly rejects other core values, such as the dignity of all persons.

Some nations have modified the right to free expression with a form of “free speech consequentialism,” which permits governments to regulate certain kinds of speech in order to preserve other social goods. In 1972, for example, France made it illegal to incite racial hatred or to use language that was racially defamatory, contemptuous, or

offensive. Under the Gayssot Law, passed in July 1990, it is illegal to deny publicly the occurrence of the Nazi Holocaust. And in 1990, it became illegal to publicly deny the Holocaust. These laws have not ended either racism or struggles over free speech in France, but they do make it easier for institutions to limit the free speech rights of people like Richard Spencer.

The U.S., in contrast, permits limits on free speech rights only in rare cases of “fighting words” that pose an imminent threat of violence. No one has yet used the “fighting words” argument against Spencer, despite Charlottesville and the fact that UF virtually closed the campus and expects to spend about US$500,000 on additional security for the event.

inevitability. They put their energy into minimizing harm, following the strategy of administrators at other universities, including my alma mater, the University of California at Berkeley.

UF and local government officials pursued two simultaneous strategies: actively denouncing Spencer and his message, while also reducing the risk of violence with draconian security procedures throughout campus and downtown Gainesville.

Spencer came to Gainesville because the Supreme Court takes a Kantian approach: Constitutional rights to free speech are universal moral rules, permitting no exceptions, even when following the rule seems likely to generate negative consequences. In a famous example, Kant argued against the “supposed right to lie from benevolent

Jennifer Schultz, a public information officer at the Illinois Department of Innovation & Technology said, Illinois takes steps to protect personal information.

“The security of confidential and personal information is of the utmost importance to the State of Illinois and many actions are utilized to protect data that is accessed, stored and acquired,” she said.

Certain types of data, such as payment card, tax information, criminal justice and personally identifiable information have higher standards of protection,” Schultz continued. A “current Illinois initiative, “is focusing, “on the encryption of over 6 billion records,” she added.

Meanwhile, the law firm of Stone & Magnanini LLP, recently filed a class-action complaint against Equifax Incorporated and Equifax Information Services on behalf of all persons in the United States who entered into an agreement for services or products with, or who otherwise directly transmitted to Equifax, any of their personally identifiable information (“PII”), and whose PII was accessed without authorization in the data breach Equifax announced in September 2017.

“This case presents the ultimate irony because our clients turned over their confidential information to Equifax and paid Equifax to help protect them from identity theft,” said Stone & Magnanini Managing Partner David Stone in a released statement. Law Firm Partner Robert Magnanini also noted that Stone & Magnanini has filed one of the only complaints in the country focused specifically on representing Equifax customers in their efforts to recover monies paid to Equifax for services lawyers for the plaintiffs say their clients didn’t receive.

I teach ethics at the university where Richard Spencer spoke CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4

Spencer’s free speech rights pose real dilemmas for individuals in places like Gainesville. Should we ignore Spencer, as the university desperately wants us to do?

Or do we protest, to show Spencer and the world that we categorically reject white supremacy?

As an ethicist, I find little help from the standard choice between Kantian and Utilitarian models. The textbook dilemmas where those options are applied are devoid of the concrete details that influence our real-life ethical decisions, and also of the larger political impact of words and deeds. This political context shapes the questions my community has been struggling with for the past week.

Are Spencer and those who protest him not only legally but also morally equivalent, as Ted Yoho, our congressional

representative, implies? Yoho describes all those who oppose Spencer as “Antifa, a so-called ‘anti-fascist’ group comprised of radical Marxists and anarchists.” He sees no possibility that people who are not “radicals” would reject white supremacy. By denying substantive differences in the values of white supremacists and those who protest them, this approach avoids meaningful moral reflection and, in this case, reinforces Spencer’s frequent claim that he is a victim of people who want to “stifle” his free speech.

Another kind of moral equivalence is suggested by protesters who accuse those who stay away from campus, in a deliberate effort to deny Spencer more publicity, of acting like “good Germans,” a phrase that was used regularly in discussions prior to Spencer’s visit. Do those who ignore

tacitly enable white supremacists to gain power? Do those who protest strengthen Spencer by following his playbook of confrontation? There is no easy answer to this question, and no theoretical one. The only sure answer will be the practical one – what happened? And that we will have only in retrospect.

As I finish this article, Richard Spencer has finished speaking. Protesters managed to fill many of the seats inside the Phillips Center, drowning him out much of the time. Many other people protested outside, and nobody was hurt. Now we wait for the white supremacists to go home, and ponder what has changed because they came.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly Plans to Host Annual Hiring Fair

By Christopher Shuttlesworth

Congresswoman Robin Kelly will host her 5th Annual Hiring Event for job-seekers in the 2nd Congressional District on Oct. 27, from 9 a.m. to noon, in the gymnasium of South Suburban College, located 15800 State St., South Holland.

In 2016, more than 400 job-seekers met with more than 85 employers with active job openings, according to a Congresswoman Robin Kelly press release.

Kelly explained that the desire for the hiring event arose when she took office four and a half years ago and saw that her district had a high unemployment rate. She said ultimately, the hiring event became one of the tools she

decided to use to help people get back to working.

“No matter who you are, you want basic needs like a roof over your head, healthcare, good education for your children and work,” Kelly said. “Most people want a job and we wanted to help give them that opportunity.”

She continued to say that the hiring event helps the overall quality of life for the people in her district and her constituents as well.

“Nothing stops a bullet like an opportunity because that opportunity might be a job or a mentor or new skill,” Kelly said.

Companies and agencies participating in this year’s Hiring Event include UPS, ComEd, Metra Rail, Comcast, the CTA, the U.S. Post Office, MiJack, Franciscan Health, Lakeside

Metals, and the Cook County Sheriff’s Department.

Prior to the Hiring Event, Kelly will also sponsor a free Job Readiness Workshop on Oct. 25, from 6 to 7:30 p.m., in the Community Room of the Calumet City Public Library, located at 660 S. Manistee Avenue, Calumet City, according to a Congresswoman Robin Kelly press release.

Instructors from the Chicago Cook Workforce Partnership will teach job-seekers how to prepare a resume and develop quality interview skills.

Job-seekers can visit www.reprobinkelly. eventbrite.com to register for the Hiring Event or the Job Readiness Workshop. For more information, visit www.robinkelly.house.gov.
