Opinion Today: Americans shouldn’t take free speech for granted

States are limiting what people can say, and that endangers the functioning of democracy.

One afternoon, her mother brought home the first issue, and her father read the editorial out loud. “It was titled ‘The First Word.’ The newspaper promised to defend freedom of speech and thought, and to always speak the truth. ‘Only the truth is free, and only when the truth is revealed does freedom become true,’ he read.” Ypi lived through something that most of our readers, thankfully, will never experience: having no freedom of speech or thought, and then, one day, a reversal. Because these freedoms are part of America’s founding principles, it can be hard for Americans to imagine a country without freedom of speech, and easy to take it for granted. That is, in part, why my colleagues and I on the editorial board feel it is particularly important to highlight the issue of freedom of speech and expression in our work.

As the editorial notes, there are many ways to stifle debate, but “the threat that Americans should be most concerned about is any attempt by government to limit the freedom of individuals to express their views or to dictate what they think.” That’s because having robust public debate, where many points of view are heard, is crucial to the functioning of a healthy democracy. Some readers may be weary of the controversies over free speech at colleges and universities. But I urge you to pay attention: These conflicts are escalating, and their repercussions go far beyond the campus.
