Summary:
"A vital, necessary playbook for navigating and
defending
free
speech
today by the CEO of PEN America,
Dare
To
Speak
provides a pathway for promoting
free
expression while also cultivating a more inclusive public culture. Online trolls and fascist chat groups. Controversies over campus lectures. Cancel culture versus censorship. The daily hazards and debates surrounding
free
speech
dominate headlines and fuel social media storms. In an era where one tweet can launch-or end-your career, and where
free
speech
is often invoked as a principle but rarely understood, learning to maneuver the fast-changing, treacherous landscape of public discourse has never been more urgent. In
Dare
To
Speak
, Suzanne Nossel, a leading voice in support of
free
expression, delivers a vital, necessary guide to maintaining democratic debate that is open, free-wheeling but at the same time respectful of the rich diversity of backgrounds and opinions in a changing country. Centered on practical principles, Nossel's primer equips readers with the tools needed to
speak
one's mind in today's diverse, digitized, and highly-divided society without resorting to curbs on
free
expression. At a time when
free
speech
is often pitted against other progressive axioms-namely diversity and equality-Dare To
Speak
presents a clear-eyed argument that the drive to create a more inclusive society need not, and must not, compromise robust protections for
free
speech
. Nossel provides concrete guidance on how to reconcile these two sets of core values within universities, on social media, and in daily life. She advises readers how to: Use language conscientiously without self-censoring ideas; Defend the right to express unpopular views; And protest without silencing
speech
. Nossel warns against the increasingly fashionable embrace of expanded government and corporate controls over
speech
, warning that such strictures can reinforce the marginalization of lesser-heard voices. She argues that creating an open market of ideas demands aggressive steps to remedy exclusion and ensure equal participation. Replete with insightful arguments, colorful examples, and salient advice,
Dare
To
Speak
brings much-needed clarity and guidance to this pressing-and often misunderstood-debate."--From publisher.
