Introduction

My name is Josiah Faison and I am from Wilmington, NC. My major is strategic communications and I have minors in business administration and public and professional writing. In my classes I hope to focus on learning things that can help me improve professionally, and outside of class I like to focus making sure all of my assignments are complete and then have a good time with friends and family. After HPU, I hope to maybe find a job that I can have for a year or two and then get my MPA.

Are citizens allowed to use the first amendment to its full extent?

With the recent Black Lives Matter movement there have been many different occasions where people have not been able to use their first amendment right, or at least not every part of it. With there being six clauses in the First amendment, sometimes people haven't been allowed to use all of the clauses. Judges have prevented lawyers from wearing black lives matter apparel and accessories in court which is a violation of the speech clause. Local law enforcement also has been gearing up in combat gear which comes off as very aggressive to citizens. In some instances, law enforcement has been aggressive with peaceful protestors, which is abusing 2 clauses, the assembly clause and freedom of speech.

Antiwar Voices

In the news, you rarely hear anything about anti-war movements which is very strange, being that there are a lot of them going on.

The government could be silencing news stations in a way that they don't feel comfortable reporting on antiwar voices. A couple of anti-war sites that are not popular and that were hard to find are below. https://www.theamericanconservative.com/web-categories/realism-restraint/ antiwar.com

Diffusions of Innovations

With the iPhone becoming the first-ever phone with a built-in internet browser and mp3 player, many people were interested quick and wanted to buy one. Many people became early adopters of the iPhone because of it being a 3 for 1 kind of device being that it had a browser like a computer, mp3 player, and makes phone calls. The overall convenience and the fact the original iPhone was so new and innovative is why there were so many early adopters. There have been a lot of late adopters because of people wanting to not be so dependant on iPhones being that now the current iPhone does so much for the average person that has it. Iphones are now a massive part of every person's life, and they go with us literally everywhere we go. Late adopters now realize that they have to adapt to a changing world that is slowly requiring and expecting the average person to be an iPhone owner, so this is actually kind of forcing people to be late adopters of the iPhone. Some people are still not adopte
