Out of the 8 values of free expression,
number 7- Promotion Innovation sticks out to me and is something I value. Promotion
Innovation is defined as, “A community in which free speech is valued and
protected is likely to be a more energized, creative, interesting society as
its citizens actively fulfill themselves in many diverse and interesting ways.”
I believe that is true because every citizen has the right to express their
voice/ opinion and have it valued. Also, without freedom of speech our society
would be limited and boring; we would all be forced to do the same things and
follow a leader along with his/her ideas.
I also think this is the most inspiring
because it is promoting creativity among citizens. Without people trying new
things, being energized and creative, our world would lack passion and new
ideas. This idea applies to technology, innovations, and other everyday things
we use. Without creativity, we may not have a lot of things our society depends
on daily -phones, cars, tv, etc.
Along with that I think this is the
most underrated. A lot people think politics, money, and war/violence should be
our top priority as a country- which I agree with because all are important.
However, protecting our citizens rights and amendments is just as important because
that is what founding fathers wanted. At the end of the day, if a citizen can’t
express their thoughts or voice their opinion nothing can get accomplished.
Summarizing everything I said
above, I believe this is the most meaningful value from the ones given.
Everyone deserves the right to have passion and express themselves whether it’s
through creativity or speech. Without this, our country would lack diversity, innovation,
and our values would be different from those set in the Constitution.
