Don't Let It Go

Last night I had the pleasure of dinner with one of my heroes, free speech champion Nadine Strossen (NYLS, ACLU). 

I first met Nadine when she came to USAFA to give a talk to the cadets. (I was an assistant professor there from 2005-2008.) But our first real conversation was by Zoom in October 2020, about her book, Hate: Why We Should Resist It with Free Speech, Not Censorship, with a specific focus on content moderation in social media.

Given Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter, and the renewed interest in this topic, the timing is just about perfect, so give it a listen if you haven’t already. And if you enjoy it, sharing is always appreciated, thanks!

Musk is officially in the process of purchasing Twitter, and promises to make it a free speech platform. It could be a bit of a bumpy ride between here and there, however. So in the meantime, remember to subscribe here or follow me on Parler.
