The new 18 minute documentary program, written and presented by Danish
Human Rights Lawyer, Jacob Mchangama, focuses on one of the defining
issues of our time; the global battle of values over the relationship
between free speech and religious sensitivities. Recent years have seen
increasing demands that free speech should be limited to respect
religious feelings. In a globalized world this conflict has become
explosive as cartoons published in Denmark and videos uploaded in
America have led to violent riots from Cairo to Karachi. The outcome of
this battle, says Mchangama, will have profound consequences for the
ability of people everywhere to freely express themselves and follow
their beliefs.
