Social 30-1
We finished watching "Shouting Fire" today, hopefully you got an appreciation of first amendment issues in the United States after watching this film. I also mentioned connections that could made between the ideas of freedom of speech, freedom of assembly and freedom of the press and topics that we've covered already. You should be able to see connections between the ideas of Thomas Hobbes, Voltaire, and the often quoted passage of Benjamin Franklin ("They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.") and some of the ideas that were raised by this film. One of the key points in the film was that in times of crisis free speech is a freedom that is often restricted. There's no school on Thursday or Friday. You have a Unit 3 Final Exam on Tuesday, June 4th, please see the study guide below.
