[Update: Matt Walsh has decided to reschedule his visit to Washington and Lee University on March 30, 2023, following threats and security concerns in Nashville, Tennessee. The new date for Walsh’s speech has not yet been determined.]

The W&L Spectator and College Republicans are proud to present Matt Walsh in Lee Chapel at 7:30 pm on March 30, 2023.

Matt is one of the most visible and prominent voices in the young conservative movement. He is currently a lead columnist for The Daily Wire and is close colleagues with avant-garde conservative pundits Ben Shapiro and Michael Knowles. With a massive social media following, Matt is an active voice and a frequent target of media attention. He is the author of four books and the host of the hit podcast, The Matt Walsh Show. He has also appeared on numerous radio programs, television shows such as Tucker Carlson Tonight, and other prominent podcasts, including The Joe Rogan Experience.

He recently made waves with his hit 2022 film entitled What is a Woman?, viewable exclusively on The Daily Wire. Through an “often comical, yet deeply disturbing journey,” according to the film’s synopsis, Walsh examines the core logic and questions that contemporary society has prompted about gender ideology.

The Spectator is appreciative of the university’s commitment to free speech. We would like to thank our donors, The Generals Redoubt, and Young America's Foundation for making this event possible.

We hope that you will join us for this special event.

Tickets can be found here, and the event livestream will be available here. You can expect thorough coverage of Matt Walsh’s remarks in our next edition.
