You have the right to express your thoughts, share information, and peacefully advocate for change, which is essential for a just society where all can enjoy human rights.
While governments should prohibit hateful speech that constitutes incitement to hostility, discrimination or violence, they frequently misuse this power and arrest individuals for speaking out, creating a culture of fear that silences dissent. The treatment of critical voices reflects a government’s human rights record.
Freedom of expression is the foundation of other human rights, including the right to freedom of thought, conscience, religion, and the right to assembly of peaceful protest. Please visit the Amnesty International Banned Books Week display on Wednesday and Thursday during lunch to learn more about our most important right...The right to be informed!
