"Dangerous Speech and What We Can Do About It" with Susan Benesch

In moments of heightened conflict, we individually and collectively demonstrate our commitment to being an inclusive community. To hold space for those with whom we disagree.

Join on March 7, 2024, at 3 pm to hear from Susan Benesch as part of the "Navigating Tensions, Affirming Community" Speaker Series.

Susan Benesch founded and directs the Dangerous Speech Project to study speech that can inspire violence - and to find ways to prevent this, without infringing on freedom of expression. She conducts research on methods to diminish harmful speech online, or the harm itself. Trained as a human rights lawyer at Yale, Susan has worked for NGOs including Amnesty International and Human Rights First. She is also Faculty Associate of the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University.
