Event Details

26 May 2012 Brighton, UK 4.30 - 6pm at the Brighton Dome, Corn Exchange Maryam Namazie will join a panel staged by Index on Censorship and Free Word as part of this year’s Brighton Festival on the afternoon of 26th May called ‘Where do you draw the line?’ Open dialogue is the key to a healthy, cohesive society, but some fear the disruptive, dangerous potential of truly free speech. Inspired by themes of DV8’s show Can We Talk About This? the event presents an interactive conversation about how, when and why we censor ourselves. Chaired by Kenan Malik, author of From Fatwa to Jihad and regular guest on The Moral Maze, the discussion moves between panellists and the audience using electronic polling terminals, with poll results screened live.
