Christian Professor Fights DEI “Whiteness” Discrimination at Arizona State University | with Dr. Owen Anderson

Are Christian professors being discriminated against at public universities because of their faith? And when did it become unacceptable for Christians to teach students about the historic Christian worldview from a biblical perspective on a secular campus? Something strange is happening behind the scenes at Arizona State University and a tenured (Christ-following) professor is now choosing to fight back and speak out against the corruption taking place!

This week, Dr. Owen Anderson, professor of philosophy and religious studies at Arizona State University, joins Frank on the podcast to share how he found himself at odds with the university, and what he’s doing to bring awareness to what appears to be a clear case of discrimination against Christians on campus. Does ASU have the right to enforce syllabus changes just because professor Anderson is a Christian, or have they violated his constitutional rights to speak (and teach) freely? Frank and Owen will dive deep into the answer as well as tackle questions like:

What types of changes did ASU want Owen to make to the course syllabus?

Should Christian professors be forced to teach about Christianity as if they were skeptics like Bart Ehrman?

What help is available for Christians who face workplace discrimination?

What is the philosophy of “whiteness” according to DEI training?

How has ASU specifically singled out Owen and other Christian (or conservative) professors on campus?

Are universities being used to push anti-Christian bias?

This episode is nothing less of a cautionary tale of what can happen when college campuses go woke! But stay tuned, because this conversation’s just getting started! Be sure to check back in early next week to hear Frank and Owen wrap up their discussion about what’s happening at ASU and other universities across the country.
