Vee Bravo of the Tribeca Film Institute addresses the Hive NYC Free Speech Hack Jam. He told attendees how it felt to lose a fight with the city over a free speech issue in the early 1990s: Stress, a hip hop magazine co-founded by Bravo, ran a parody of an anti-graffiti ad, changing it into a protest against the city’s harsh treatment of graffiti writers. The city demanded they take the magazine out of circulation, and they didn’t have the resources to effectively fight back.
