Join IHRB's Salil Tripathi in his final act as PEN Chair, in a 'Against Hate' – a conversation with writers Salman Rushdie and Carolin Emcke at the closing ceremony of its 87th Congress on 24th September 2021 at 14.00 UK time – hosted by PEN International.

Key questions and reflections to be explored during the conversation moderated by Salil Tripathi include:

• Is it possible to define hate speech?
• Once defined, is it possible to regulate it?
• Is it possible to regulate speech meaningfully?
• If we do not trust the governments and companies to regulate speech, who shall we trust?
• What is the role of a writer in terms of ensuring that hate speech is marginalized and alternative views are getting heard and respected?
