Thought Police examines the long history of governments suppressing speech—with clear echoes of George Orwell’s warning of a world without free speech. The program explores personal stories from Hong Kong, North Korea, and Peru, whose governments tried to suppress free speech. One instance resulted in a monumental—and avoidable—human tragedy.
