American free speech lawyer and author — CEO of FIRE (Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression) — co-author with Jonathan Haidt of The Coddling of the American Mind — the leading legal advocate for free speech on college campuses.
Co-creates The Coddling argument — Lukianoff and Haidt's thesis (that universities are teaching students cognitive distortions by validating safetyism, which is both bad for mental health and bad for epistemics) connected free speech advocacy with psychological research on CBT in a way that made the argument accessible beyond legal circles.
