Can Words Be Violence?
Episode 4 of “Wokeness, Public Safety, BLM & Antifa” w/Matt Thornton

Words can be vulgar, mean-spirited, or hurtful, but are they violent?

In Episode 4 of “Wokeness, Public Safety, BLM & Antifa,” Matt Thornton explains why suppressing civil discourse increases the possibility of actual violence.
