In the face of a rising tide of censorship and suppression, this updated paperback edition of Free Speech Handbook [23rd St Books; August 19, 2025], the acclaimed nonfiction graphic novel, equips readers with a practical framework for appreciating the history and future of our free speech protections.
Freedom of speech is perhaps the most American of virtues. In a nation where everyone wants to speak and be heard, this First Amendment right is vital to our identity and our democracy. These rights have been advanced by people who spoke out and fought in our nation’s highest court, with each decision refining and reshaping what exactly “free speech” means.
Ian Rosenberg and Mike Cavallaro stop by to chat about the graphic novel and more:
