Jacob Mchangama is the CEO of the pro free speech think tank Justitia. He is a research professor at Vanderbilt University and a Senior Fellow at The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE) in Washington. Mchangama is the author of “Free Speech: A History From Socrates to Social Media.” He frequently writes for the Economist, L.A Times, Washington Post, BBC, CBS news, NPR, and so on. In our conversation, Mchangama and I discuss why younger generations are less in favor of free speech, the role of universities in free speech, and why it is important.
