Look in the news for a protest in the United States from the past 3 months.
Once you have identified a protest, provide the following information as the first part your discussion post:
- What was the date of the protest?
- What was the issue(s) being protested?
- Generally, who were the protesters?
- What were the actions of the protesters? (What did they do as part of the protest?)
- Were there any counteractions such as counter-protests, retaliation, or extra security visible during the protest? If so, describe the counteractions.
For the second part of your post, respond to the following:
Do you think the government, universities, or businesses have the right to censor protests (threaten protesters with legal action or disciplinary action for protesting) or set limits on protests (including social media), such as where and when protests can happen by citizens/students/employees? Why or why not? Did your choice of protest influence your opinion at all? Explain.
