Dershowitz Takes on Leftist Enemies of Free Speech
The Case Against the New Censorship: Protecting Free Speech From Big Tech, Progressives and Universities, by Alan Dershowitz, New York: Hot Books, 2021, 169 pages, hardcover.
“Freedom of speech in America is facing the greatest threats since the Alien and Sedition Acts of 1798,” Alan Dershowitz writes in his latest book, making the case that the threat to free speech today is coming from the political Left, particularly from academia and Big Tech companies such as Google, Facebook, and Twitter.
Dershowitz has long been a noted civil libertarian, and was the youngest full professor in the history of Harvard Law School. Despite his history as a Democrat, his strong defense of free speech in the face of a rising tide of “progressive” opposition to the free-speech principle enshrined in the First Amendment has placed him in the crosshairs of contemporary Democrats, in and out of government.
