Freedom to Think: Protecting a Fundamental Human Right in the Digital Age with author Susie Alegre

July 14, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

£4

Join us for an evening with Kingston author Susie Alegre who will be discussing her book Freedom to Think. CHOSEN AS A BOOK OF THE YEAR IN THE FINANCIAL TIMES AND THE TELEGRAPH.

Part history and part manifesto, Freedom to Think explores how the powerful have always sought to influence how we think and what we buy. Connecting the dots from Galileo to Alexa, human rights lawyer Susie Alegre charts the history and fragility of our most important human right: freedom of thought.

Filled with shocking case-studies across politics, criminal justice, and everyday life, this ground-breaking book shows how our mental freedom is under threat like never before. Bold and radical, Alegre argues that only by recasting our human rights for the digital age can we safeguard our future.

Tickets can be purchased here or in the shop and price includes 1 glass of beer or wine.
