SUMMARY:Let's Talk About Free Speech!
DESCRIPTION:Participate in free and open discussions of important civil 
 matters the first week of each month. In June\, we'll discuss the freedom 
 to speak.\n\n\n\nWhile most people accept the Freedom of Speech as a 
 fundamental right\, not everyone agrees on what this freedom should 
 include. There are gray areas\, such as incitement\, defamation\, and 
 fighting words\, where expression may legally be curtailed. There have also 
 been cases where the right not to speak has been upheld\, such as in an 
 individual’s refusal to recite the Pledge of Allegiance. Even with over 
 200 years of court cases\, questions remain: When can the government 
 restrict or compel expression\, and why? Do free speech zones or obscenity 
 laws violate the First Amendment? Should hate speech be protected\, and if 
 not\, what counts as hate speech?\n\nJoin us in a lively discussion about 
 meaning of and limits to Free Speech!\n\n\n\n\nThis program is part if our 
 civic dialogue series\, which includes the Banned Book Club and Let's Talk 
 About It. Programs include:\n\n\n\n\n	May 7th: Banned Book Club: Animal 
 Farm - Censorshp\, revolution and the road to totalitarianism\n	June 6th:
