In this episode, Ben and Joe talk about Jacob Mchangama's book, Free Speech: A History from Socrates to Social Media; the battle for free speech throughout history; and why it's so important to preserve free speech today.
"...truth can be arrived at only through the untrammeled contest between and among competing opinions, in which as many viewpoints as possible are given a fair and equal hearing. It has therefore always been our contention that laws, mores, practices and prejudices that place constraints on freedom of expression are a disservice to society." - Nelson Mandela
