Truthdig - Reports - War and Censorship at Wilton High: "I asked the student actors about their opportunities to discuss the war at school. Jimmy Presson, 16 years old, said his U.S. history class has a weekly assignment to bring in a current-event news item, with one caveat: 'We are not allowed to talk about the war while discussing current events.'"
The only people the students may discuss the war with currently are the military recruiters that lurk at their school. To get around that, they made a play about the war, and it was shot down by the school administration. What happened to free speech and the idea that current events should be discussed in schools?
