Free speech might be a hot topic right now, but this isn’t the first time it’s been in the news. For almost 2,500 years, free speech has been hotly debated among politicians, scholars, and average citizens across continents and cultures. What can we learn from millennia of debates? This week on “Beyond the White Coat,” we’re joined by Jacob Mchangama — CEO of the Future of Free Speech Project and featured speaker at Learn Serve Lead 2023: The AAMC Annual Meeting — to discuss not only what we can learn from the history of free speech, but also its future in the United States.
Join host AAMC President and CEO David J. Skorton, MD, as he and Mchangama discuss misinformation, hate speech, and more during this episode of “Beyond the White Coat.” Stream wherever you get your podcasts.
