Free Speech and Censorship: A Global Perspective

This chapter critically examines the implications of U.S. foreign policy and the moral dilemmas surrounding sanctions on countries like Iraq. It explores the evolving landscape of free speech, particularly the influence of big tech and government on public discourse, and highlights the impact of censorship in both the U.S. and abroad, using Brazil as a case study. The discussion emphasizes the need for open debate and the protection of First Amendment rights in the face of rising authoritarianism and societal pressures.
