Today I would like you to look deeper at the kinds of
censorship that exist in our world, why people censor or ban things, and what
effect it has on your life.
Most media in our world undergo some form of censorship,
including but not limited to:
1)Movies
2) Books
3) Music
Pick one of these genres and research answers to the
following questions (remember to let me know where your data comes from):
|
Who is in charge of banning of censoring this medium?
|
Why is this medium usually censored?
|
What has been banned?
|
|
In this column, provide detailed information on what group or groups tend to want to censor your chosen medium.
|
Look at multiple examples and try to look for all the different reasons you can. Use this column to compare and contrast them
|
This column can be used to list examples you've found that support the ideas you put forward in columns 1 and 2
|
**Write your answers out in paragraph form on a sheet of paper and hand it in to me**
Starter sites: Use these site as starting points for your research, but try to find information of your own

**Remember that censorship is something people feel very strongly about, so there will be a lot of opinions out there. If you think material you are reading might be biased, be sure to mention that, should you decide to use it**
