In March and April, the Floersheimer Center for Constitutional Democracy at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law in New York and the CMCS, in cooperation with the Department of Sociology of The New School for Social Research, presented a weekly colloquium in New York on "hate speech".

The weekly sessions took place on Thursdays at 4 pm. at the Cardozo School of Law. They drew from chapters of the forthcoming book The Content and Context of "Hate Speech": Rethinking Regulation and Remedies, which will be published by Cambridge University Press. The weekly sessions were convened and moderated by the co-editors of the book, Senior Research Fellow Peter Molnar of the CMCS, Central European University, and Professor Michael Herz, Cardozo School of Law.
