As we consider the puzzle that is free speech and whether to allow hate speech, consider the the question framed this way: Should we tolerate the intolerant?

Popper Paradox of Intolerance

  1. Research a situation involving a fight on campus between the rights of someone to speak and the rights of people not to be subject to hatred. Detail it here. What would you have done if you were on that campus?
  2. In the USA, we are strong advocates of the right to free speech. It is in our Bill of Rights. The First Amendment.

    So, what does scientific research and philosophical writings tell us about free speech, the right to speak and tolerating hate speech? Some website searches can help. Google search, of course. Google Scholar linksLinks to an external site. to scientific research articles. Popular books. Is Popper right or wrong?

    I am looking for an answer here that shows you did the research, quoted the pertinent parts of that research and drew some shared meaning from all the research that you did on free speech/right to speak. What revelation did you have as a result of that research? You do not need to use footnotes or a Citations page (though a Sources Cited at the bottom of this paper always helps), but just attribute in the body of your answer to the source where you found the information.

  3. Close with a 2-3 sentence paragraph that synthesizes what you learned in this exercise. Answer this question: If USF scheduled the most odious person on the Earth in your opinion to come speak here, would you go and listen; protest and shout them down; or stay away?
