In person or online, people wield language to attack others for their race, national origin, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, disability, or other aspects of identity. This volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series examines hate speech: what it is, and is not; its history; and efforts to address it.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Carlson presents a compelling view of a problem that seems to have no good answer and yet she provides suggestions for methods that might help to end the easy spread of hate speech in media and online."--<i><b>Shelf Awareness</b></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Caitlin Ring Carlson is Associate Professor in the Communication Department at Seattle University.
