Controversy over academic freedom at the University of Ottawa
text:
The controversy over academic freedom at the University of Ottawa was sparked in September 2020, after a professor used the word "nigger" during a lecture to illustrate how certain groups reclaimed words or phrases traditionally used against them. The professor's use of the word and the ensuing outrage was first reported by Charley Dutil and Paige Holland in the university's anglophone student news outlet, Fulcrum. The university suspended the teacher after an offended student filed a complaint.
