 kpfa.org/events   \n\nP. E. Moskowitz wrote the renowned bestseller, "How 
 To Kill a City," which revealed the systemic forces behind the 
 gentrification ruining such major American cities as San Francisco, New 
 York, New Orleans and Detroit. Now, with "The Case Against Free Speech" he 
 exposes the powerful forces and political machinations currently defining 
 free speech, a term that has been defined and redefined to suit those in 
 power, to give them the right to push their agenda.\n\nWhat's more, our 
 investment in the First Amendment has long obscured an uncomfortable truth: 
 free speech is impossible in an unequal society in which a few corporations 
 joined with the ultra-wealthy can bankroll political movements that 
 disenfranchise millions of voters, while our government routinely silences 
 critics of racism and capitalism.\n\nThis daring book takes readers 
 directly into the battle raging over this foundational concept, from the 
 back rooms of think-tanks where the very definition of free speech is 
 influenced by billionaires like the Koch Brothers, to "safe spaces" on 
 college campuses, to neo-Nazi rallies protected by the police. Moskowitz 
 dives into the history of how free speech rights have always been reserved 
 for those in power. \n\nP.E.Moskowitz is the author of the bestselling "How 
 To Kill a City," and a writer for Al Jazeera, The Guardian, the New York 
 Times, Wired, the New Republic and Vice.\n\nPhilip Maldari is host and 
 producer of the popular Sunday Morning Show (9 Am - 11 PM) on KPFA 
 Radio.\n\n$12 advance, $15 door.\n
