- Free Speech For Me - But Not For Thee
How the American Left and Right Relentlessly Censor Each Other Resource Type: Book Published: 1992 Hentoff is a passionate believer in free speech who recognizes that if speech is truly to be free, we must protect the expression even of ideas we abhors. He catalogues with equal disapproval the efforts of both the right and the left to censor speech they don't like. While being sympathetic to those who object to allowing bigots, racists, pornographers, atheists, and others of many stripes the right to lay out ideas that one group or another finds repugnant, he makes both an intellectual and an emotional case for allowing everyone to have their say, no matter how much this may offend some. He points out that suppressing speech doesn't get rid of the underlying thought, but merely drives it underground and gives it the benefit of martyrdom.

Rethinking Canada's Left History Resource Type: Book Published: 2005 Ian Mckay starts the book with an analysis of what we mean by the "left". He defines the left broadly to include anyone who understands the injustice of capitalism, the possibilty of democratic alternatives and the need for social transformation. He offers an historical approach based on the work of Antonio Gramsc i- an approach he terms "reconnaissance. This would allow leftists to speak to one another across the many dialects of leftism that constitute our traditions. It would allow the left to encompass a greater diversity of people: religious and cultural figures, First Nations, visible minorities, feminists, environmentalists and Quebec nationalists amongst others. McKay writes with those who have struggled for a better world and invites us to go forward to make this a reality - the possibility of a post-liberal, post-capitalist democratic society.
