HATE, HERESY AND THE FIGHT FOR FREE SPEECH

In this telling debate, filmed by WORLDwrite volunteers at the Battle of Ideas Festival at Church House, Westminster, speakers and audience discuss what’s happened to free speech and the way forward. The Kathleen Stock case is on the agenda too as she declines her place on the panel due to transphobia allegations and a witch hunt on campus. It's a must watch and it becomes clear there are no easy answers.

The speakers are:
Dr Piers Benn - Philosopher, author and lecturer
James Murray - Lawyer; senior associate, Taylor Vinters; research fellow, University of Buckingham;
James Tooley - Vice Chancellor, University of Buckingham; author, The Beautiful Tree
Dr Joanna Williams - Founder and Director, Cieo; author, Women vs Feminism and Consuming Higher Education: Why Learning Can't be Bought
The Chair is Timandra Harkness - Journalist, writer and broadcaster; presenter, Radio 4's FutureProofing and How to Disagree; comedian, Take A Risk; author, Big Data: Does Size Matter?
With no one paid to edit the exceptional 33 debates filmed entirely by volunteers at the Battle of Ideas Festival 2021, the charity still has to pay its Volunteer centre costs and edit suite overheads. These come to £130 a day. Most people maybe don't know what it takes to get a completed video out, even a simple 1.5 hour debate. To capture, sync, (2 cameras) edit, sound clean, colour correct, add titles, straps & end credits, transcode, export, compress and upload takes a minimum of 2 days for each debate. Thirty-three debates, sixty-six days, that’s £8580 we need to raise, without paying anyone. There's some vital and fascinating debates here, well worth sharing with the world, but to get them completed we need to raise at least this target.
