Hamid Mir is an intrepid journalist who believes in the power and the right of free speech. This belief has awarded him a life of bullets and bombs, yet his conviction is strong. He speaks on the situation in Pakistan, his familial connection to writing and truth-telling, and the chilling effect that a new form of censorship – killing journalists – is having on the region and the world.
Crossings Institute Research Fellows Reuben Unrau and Casey Minter spoke with Mir in Riga, Latvia during World Press Freedom Day events.
