Michael Rectenwald
About
Michael Rectenwald is an American scholar who has taught at several institutions, such as New York University (NYU). Although his scholarship has focused primarily on 19th-century British secularism, contemporary secularism, and the 19th-century freethought movement, he may be most known as a critic of the contemporary social justice movement and its effects in the academy. He describes these criticisms in his memoir, Springtime for Snowflakes: Social Justice and Its Postmodern Parentage, published in 2018.
