Episode 23: What the ‘Free Speech’ Debate is Still Missing, Ilana Redstone

Today’s episode is about how voices become silenced and when to determine if a free speech crisis exists. We’ll hear the story of Ilana Redstone, a professor who argues that we must go beyond the surface and look at subtle forms of censorship and suppression that exist within higher education. Our topics include free speech, the covid-19 pandemic, and bias in the classroom.Ilana’s Blog: What the ‘Free Speech’ Debate is Still Missing (https://heterodoxacademy.org/blog/what-freedom-speech-debate-still-missing/) To engage deeper with these ideas, check out HxA’s Open Inquiry Resource Guide.
