Confronting the Right: An Introduction
http://solidarity-us.org/atc/194/antifa1/Date Written: 2018-05-01 Publisher: Against the Current Year Published: 2018 Resource Type: Article Cx Number: CX23331 An overview of issues related to confronting the right, including questions surrounding the labelling of free speech as hate speech. Abstract: ----- Excerpts: When purveyors of white supremacy are invited to speak on college campuses, are they actually aiming to win support - or rather to provoke trouble and gain publicity? What tactics to oppose them are both principled and effective? Should they be regarded as promoting "hate speech" -and should that kind of speech be shut down, and if so, how and by whom? Is there a clear distinction to be made between Nazilike organizers like Spencer, as opposed to intellectual racists like Charles Murray or loudmouth provocateurs like Ann Coulter? Subject Headings |
