Dissent, Injustice And The Meanings Of America
Americans should not just tolerate dissent. They should encourage it. The author argues that dissent should be promoted because it lies at the heart of a core American value: free speech. He contends that the country's major institutions wrongly limit dissent and reflects on how society and the law should change to encourage nonconformity.
