Free_Speech

Free Speech Free speech is the backbone of any democratic and “free” society. One of the most fundamental parts of our own Constitution is our first amendment right to free speech. It is a vital part of what it takes for a society to be well informed and develop to its full potential. The knowledge of how to organize and fight for the rights promised to us came mostly from the “Civil Rights” and the “Chicano” movements the first of which started in the 1960’s. Groups such as the NAACP, the SCLC, and the SNCC used there constitutional right to peacefully assemble, organize, and request a redress of grievances to fight for the rights of Blacks and Mexican Americans mostly but also they indirectly fought for free speech. Their organizational techniques have been used ever since to fight for all rights including the right of free speech. The fight for free speech is a never ending battle because there will always be oppressive conservatives restricting new ideas that express the feelings of entertainers and people in general. The efforts of the government to censor any form of speech restricts the development of free society and retards its speech, because, rights, free, books, school, book, people, freedom, should, first, banning, way, time, society, censorship, one, government, content, amendment, example, right, parents, ideas, banned, system, power, others, must, language, just, idea, fight, considered, children
