Learning Objective:
In order to be able to make an argument on free vs hate speech, we have to make sure we fully understand these terms. This assignment will help you define the terms and analyze issues from multiple perspectives.
Directions:
Step 1: Watch the video below!
As you watch, you might take notes on the different definitions and examples provided. Because the speaker goes rather quickly, consider pausing when needed or watching multiple times.
Step 2: Answer the following questions in as much detail as you can.
- How would you define free speech now? What are some examples of speech protected under the First Amendment? What are examples of speech that is NOT protected?
- What information given in the video surprised you?
- Tell us about a recent event you may have heard about on the news (or research one) that has to do with freedom of speech. Talk about whether you consider it free speech or hate speech.
