Is the Racial Discrimination Act standing in the way of hate speech, or free speech? On this episode of Sociologic, learn about the origins of the contentious law called 18C, and what this law (in conjunction with neighbouring law, “18D”) means for the offenders and the offended. Joining us to unpack the situation is Peter Wertheim, Executive Director of the Executive Council of Australian Jewry. Recorded on 1 September 2016.
