    While freedom of expression varies tremendously from one culture to another. It is crucial to keep in mind that oppression comes in all shapes and forms and because of that, one needs to take a look back and understand how every society that ever existed had it’s very own types of both: freedom of expression and oppression. Freedom vs oppression drives societies. We are social beings we depend on one another for survival. So the question arises: how is freedom of expression depicted in one's own culture? Is freedom real at all? Or is it barely there but we tend to soothe ourselves by saying yes we have it we own it?
