// Censorship // // Censorship has existed for as long knowledge could be spread form on person to another. These are important to be rights for Americans and for people. //// Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances. //// (Schnieder, 2007)  //// With rights striped from use we are not given the chance to learn something that is uncensored we may have learned. The knowledge of what goes on around us should not be withheld from us for we need to know what around us to help us in life. Thou it can argue that without censorship the mind would be tainted by undesirable information. The undesirable information that other try to dispose of it are right to know and should not be withheld from use no matter how other party’s believe its content is harmful. Censorship has been over used in the media and in popular culture, because the government suppresses pubic view, can give any group or person more power and, keeps knowledge from general public. //  // With the suppression of the public views, creativity. “it’s our inner critic that serves as the world’s most powerful deterrent to artistic expression, or any kind of self-expression, for that matter.” (Liew, 2009) Life is plain without the individuality.

We have the right as Americans and as humans to tell our next generation about what happened during our times. We should gain as much knowledge as we can so we can tell others. This sharing of knowledge can help others // // The media censorship has stripped away and changes the whole truth always in media. The people should be able to self censor themselves instead of having a higher power do it for them. “Willingness to Self-Censor is defined as a person’s willingness to withhold his or her opinion from an audience perceived to disagree with that opinion .”(Hayes, 2010) With the public media uncensored the public will begin to understand more then what they would have if knowledge was with held. The spread of information will make or break modern culture but to try to avoid that with censorship has been always used and no one knows if it is truly what is best for people. If we are able to go without censorship as a way to control or regulate are media then the worlds culture will truly prosper. //
