As the Trump administration seeks to implement its domestic and
foreign policies, it has launched an aggressive campaign to suppress
critics in the media and quash public dissent. Congress and the courts
have been reluctant to challenge these repressive moves that undermine
the liberties guaranteed by the U.S. constitution. Join us for a panel
discussion by peace activists examining the disturbing institutional
and social impacts of this war on the media and free
speech.
