Why freedom of speech is not absolute
The First Amendment protects freedom of speech, but that protection isn’t absolute. Dennis Baron, Emeritus Professor of English at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, joins host Krys Boyd to discuss times when employers, schools and, yes, the government have the authority to curtail what you say. His book is “You Can’t Always Say What You Want: The Paradox of Free Speech.”
