The ‘Hate Speech’ Monologues is a participatory theatrical performance, and one of the few artistic and conversational platforms at CEU where students reflect on prejudices and discrimination that they engage personally and academically. ‘Hate Speech’ Monologues was invented and has been directed by free speech scholar and performer Peter Molnar and performed by the CEU students and Molnar himself. Initially an optional part of Molnar’s course “Enabling Policies for Responding to ‘Hate Speech’, it has become a campus tradition performed each March, as well as during orientation week to welcome and raise awareness among incoming students. The project has been supported by the Student Union since 2014 and by the CEU Humanities Project since 2016. Building on the exceptional diversity at CEU, the ‘Hate Speech’ Monologues aims to strengthen the human connections and mutual respect in the CEU community.
