De Amerikaanse blogger en producent Miki Cernovich heeft een documentaire gemaakt over de staat van de vrijheid van meningsuiting in de V.S. In Silenced, “tot zwijgen gebracht”, is een reeks interviews van bekende en minder bekende mensen die het op de een af andere manier werd bemoeilijkt hun mening te geven.

Dit is de trailer:

“Silenced” is a film about the state of free speech in America.

“Silenced” is getting out to Kickstarter supporters right now. It will be available on Vimeo in a few weeks, with iTunes, Google Play coming a few weeks after. Netflix and Amazon will decide if they want to pick it up. We will also be doing screenings in select cities.

” Tyrants in the government sit back and smile. They are thrilled the people are losing respect for free speech, as free speech ultimately serves as a check against the government. Once respect for free speech decreases, the U.S. government will begin enacting censorship laws and judges will begin finding “exceptions” to the First Amendment’s broad protections of free speech.

To save free speech in America from the government, we have to save it from one another.
