Book Bans & Free Speech (with Suzanne Nossel‪)‬ Stay Tuned with Preet

Suzanne Nossel is the CEO of PEN America, a non-profit dedicated to protecting free speech at home and abroad. She’s also served at the highest levels of American foreign policy, first as the Deputy to the UN Ambassador under Richard Holbrooke, and later as a Deputy Assistant Secretary of State under Hillary Clinton. Nossel joins Preet to discuss the recent rise of book bans, the Biden administration’s human rights record, and how to balance the value of free speech with other progressive values, like diversity and inclusion.
Plus, the audio recording of Donald Trump’s 2021 meeting in Bedminster, NJ — where he indicated that he possessed secret documents that he had not declassified — is now public. Will the FBI end up searching Bedminster? Preet weighs in.
