In September's Mo News Premium Workshop, we dig into one of the most hotly debated and misunderstood issues in America today: free speech and hate speech.

Jonathan Zimmerman, Professor of History of Education at Penn Graduate School of Education, joined Mosheh for a workshop looking the history of speech in America — from the founding documents, to McCarthyism, key Supreme Court decisions and today’s debates over hate speech, cancel culture, and campus protests.

We also unpack how recent headlines like Charlie Kirk’s murder and Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension reflect America’s long, complicated struggle over the bounds of speech.
