About Greg Lukianoff
Welcome to The Eternally Radical Idea. I’m Greg Lukianoff (pronounced luke-yanov), a First Amendment attorney and President & CEO of the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE), with a particular interest in the intersection between free speech, psychology, and science. You may know me from FIRE’s own newsletter, Expression.
For the fastest-ever summary of what I believe about freedom of speech, I recommend checking out my 2025 TED Talk, “Let’s Get Real About Free Speech. ”
Another thing about me is that I’m a huge sci-fi and comic book nerd, which will explain a lot of the art you’ll see adorning our work here. And I say “our work” because I’ve got a fantastic team at ERI who help me produce the content you see from week to week.
