Students back harsher sanctions for hate speech targeting minority groups over white people: study
College students believe that hate speech targeting minorities should be more harshly punished than when it targets white individuals, a recently published study found.
A national survey of 3,065 college students used hypothetical statements from either professors or students, varying the identity of the disparaged group from white, black, Jewish, Muslim, or transgender.
The severity of the speech was also toggled between “objectionable” to “explicitly hateful” as students were asked to rate the statements’ impact and how administrators should respond.
“[I]dentical statements directed at minority groups elicit stronger punitive responses than those targeting white individuals,” according to the study’s abstract.
