"Westmont's Speech and Debate team believes that diversity, respect, and justice are cornerstones of liberty. Our unwavering belief in the right of people to be safe and secure demands this team speak out.  We add our voices to the millions of Americans who argue for equality in all things. This team is dedicated to the proposition that all people are to be treated equally. We believe, as human beings, that this society has no place for bigotry and prejudice. Our unified voices will be used to counter the voices of those that seek to tear down the basic freedoms of people everywhere. We will continue to support those who demand to be heard and our words and actions will always be aligned with people who believe in a simple notion of freedom."
