Blog Post #3:Eight Values of Free Expression
 |
There are eight values of free expression. The first value is Marketplace of Ideas. This value is important to me because it helps find the easy way to bring to the marketplace. For example, during the debate over climate change policies, there were a lot of different ideas such as climate change policies, various ideas are presented regarding renewable energy sources, carbon taxes, and government regulations. There are different ideas that were talked about but the most effective ways are identifying and implementing, by leading to more sustainable practice and policies.
The value of self-governance is sufficient to me because it helps individuals to be able to participate in shaping their own lives and communities. They are able to do this through free expressions such as citizens saying their opinions for needs or concerns that they have. As well as feeling an need of responsibility for the governance process. This participation helps keep everyone informed as well as shows the government official who they should be serving for the people. Self governance show the importance of diverse opinions in an democracy, that shows the idea that everyone has their own opinion whether popular or not and that help people be more representative as well as society.
Protecting dissent is important to me for political issues because most people feel isolated when they do not have help from other in conversions such as one on one situations. If an minority group is suppressed then the country will probably make poor choices.
Cultural diversity is crucial in todays society because it help our community grow by bring everyone together from all different background such as opinions or experience. In our world, be able to promote diverse critical understanding and enhance empathy is very important. Within diversity we are able to be creativity and innovative like technology, art, and education. The rise of social media shows that the cultural exchange helps people share and celebrate the traditions like languages or customs. There are still challenges in todays society like discrimination and the specific way that we approach people.Its essential for us to speak up for ourselves and respect everyone for their community.The First Amendment is very impornant as its process by having freedom of speech allows diverse backrgound in society to express the viewpoint as well as share the cultural experience freely.
During COVID-19 restrictions, there were a lot of rule violations such as having too many people in one place or events were you are more likely to get sick like not wearing an mask when you play an sport.This was highly reported across the news. This shows the Freedom of the Press, which allowed journalists to investigate and report on these violation to show the accountability that the citizens had. Bring attention to these scandals gave public discussion about compliances with health regulations and the impact of individuals actions that took place on community health.This process shows how cultural diversity is important in different perspectives and reactions to these violations such as figure out pandemic differently or responding to media in an unique way.
The First Amendment ensures that many freedoms, including the Freedom of the Press and Freedom of Speech allows individuals to public stories about the scandals that were taking place.
These theories applied to social media. For example, Twitters was used to launch the campaign for Ron DeSantis for President. This is the value of Individual Self Fulfilment because people who support this cause can come together to be able to get their message across. Individual Self Fulfilment is made possible because of the First Amendment which protects for our freedom of speech.
In a counrty without freedom of speech, a campaign against a leader may gain popularity. The rights promised by the Constitution allow for free discussion that enable everyone to express their own viewpoints and partipate in an diverse society.
