This week on TTBOOK we are re-airing "Filtering Free Speech," which delves into controversial subjects like protests on college campuses, hate speech, censorship, cancel culture and the history of the McCarthy era blacklist.
The cultural perspective of "Filtering Free Speech" brings up many of the topics we’re talking about today. While it was produced a few months ago, it still resonates in this moment, maybe in a different way.
Of course we love books and learn from them, so I’m also sharing with you a list a friend sent me of books that help fight racism.
If you know of a voice we should hear for a show we are working on, or to help us understand something better, especially if it’s someone we might not otherwise talk with, please let us know or send them our way at listen@ttbook.org.
