Blog 9

My group is done filming. We did not get very good interviews initially but Walker went back to School of Rock to get interviews from some of the adults there to help us piece our story together. We loaded almost all of our footage onto MTN's computers and have already started editing.

The article assigned for this blog post, "Defending Freedom and Freedom of Speech" discusses the lack of freedom in Cuba as well as the nation's desire for freedom. The article begins by stating "Freedom of speech, if it is to be real it must be extended to everyone". This is the basis for the entire passage. The article claims that only one voice is really heard in the Cuban media, the voice of the dictator. All citizens who disagree with the opinions of the dictator are not heard. This weakens the nation because without opposing views, no progress can be made. The only way the people of Cuba can be truly free is if they are all allowed to express all of their ideas freely.
