National Free Speech Week, October 17th-23rd

“In the future days which we seek to make secure, we look forward to a world founded upon four essential human freedoms. The first is freedom of speech and expression — everywhere in the world…”

– Franklin D. Roosevelt

For those who use or watch Public, Education, and Government (PEG) Access, we are blessed with the ability to practice our right to free speech and expression any day of the week. So for the week of October 17th-23rd, we all should celebrate! National Free Speech Week http://www.freespeechweek.org/ is an effort that brings together partners from across the country to help bring focus to the importance of free speech – the cornerstone of our democracy. We would like to share with you a video showcasing how PEG Access Television serves as a free speech forum. As ‘Olelo Community Media producers and viewers, you are our biggest advocates for free speech. We hope that you will continue to use our resources and watch our channels. Help us in sharing this video so that your family and friends may understand the importance and value of free speech, and maybe even use ‘Olelo resources to share their viewpoints with the community.
