About the NJSD. The National Journal of Speech & Debate (NJSD) was founded in 2012 to provide a forum for discussion about current trends and topics in speech and debate and to recommend rule or policy changes to be proposed at district meetings and organizational conferences. Our articles have been cited and read in rounds at the National Debate Tournament and in out-rounds at the Tournament of Champions. We aspire to continue our strong tradition of contributing innovative ideas on current issues topics in the speech and debate community.
