The From Prejudices to Love: „Hate Speech” Monologues is a participatory theatrical performance. It is also one of the few artistic and conversational platforms where students, other members of the CEU community and the public reflect on prejudices and discrimination (as well as responses to them) in ways that engage them personally and academically.
The „Hate Speech” Monologues was invented (as an optional part of his Department of Public Policy course on Enabling Policies for Responding to "Hate Speech" in Practice) and has been conceived and directed by free speech scholar and performer Peter Molnar since 2012 and so far has been performed by CEU students andMolnar himself.
