I have a recommendation today: a podcast called The Witch Trials of J.K. Rowling.

It centres upon an extended interview with the author of the Harry Potter books, but is a simply fascinating insight into the way in which a very confused, divisive, sometimes violent and frightening culture has developed online and offline during this age of the internet.

It covers every view point possible, and really lets them all speak for themselves. But if it has a message, it is the absolutely vital importance of upholding the opportunity for Free Speech to every kind of view point, including those we vehemently disagree with.

I haven’t reached the end. It’s a very extensive series. But it provides very useful insights on almost every aspect of modern culture for anyone who has the time or inclination.
