Meer over het boek

Anita Whitney, born into privilege, emerged as a prominent leftist in the early 1900s, advocating for radical labor movements and the Communist Labor Party. Her 1919 arrest for violating California's laws against political dissent sparked a significant Supreme Court case. This pivotal legal battle not only highlights Whitney's activism but also chronicles the evolution of free speech rights in America, ultimately leading to some of the most liberal speech laws globally.
