Regulating Hate Speech
Apr 1 2008 - 8:00pm
What is the best way to regulate hate speech? Do current regulations for hate speech make sense? Does hate speech harm other forms of speech, or is it just as protectable as those other forms?
These questions and more will be up for discussion in a lively debate between:
Rodney Smolla
Dean and Professor of Law, Washington & Lee University School of Law,
author of Free Speech in an Open Society
and
Alexander Tsesis
Assistant Professor at Loyola University School of Law,
author of Destructive Messages: How Hate Speech
Paves the Way for Harmful Social Movements
Moderated by Robert Post, Professor of Law at Yale Law School.
