Prejudice and intolerance always seem to find their fuel in the voices of those who inhabit the dark age of censorship. Faithful to its mission, the BA published four speeches addressed by Dr. Ismail Serageldin on the pivotal subject of freedom, reflecting different moments in the history of the young institution. Written in defense of freedom, the speeches draw a line between freedom of expression and unwanted blasphemy, remembering Gandhi who said “I do not want my house to be walled in on all sides and my windows to be stuffed. I want the cultures of all the lands to be blown about my house as freely as possible. But I refuse to be blown off my feet by any”.
