Gag rule on the suppression of dissent and the stifling of democracy Paperback - 2005
by Lewis H. Lapham
Award-winning columnist Lewis Lapham issues an urgent new polemic about the strangling of meaningful dissent the lifeblood of democracy at the hands of a government and media increasingly beholden to the wealthy few. Never before, Lapham argues, have voices of protest been so locked out of the mainstream conversation, so marginalized and muted by a government that recklessly disregards civil liberties. In the midst of the 'war on terror,' we face a crisis of democracy as serious as any in our history. Gag Rule is a rousing and necessary call to action in defense of the right to raise our voices and have those voices heard.
First line
As a director of the U.S. government's ministry of propaganda during World War II, Archibald MacLeish knew that dissent seldom walks onstage to the sound of warm and welcoming applause.
