عندما تعبر عن رأيك وأفكارك في حيز عام، هل تمارس رقابة ذاتية؟ ما هي أهم أسباب الرقابة الذاتية لديك؟ أسرتك؟ عملك؟ المجتمع؟ المخابرات؟ الدولة؟
ما هي المخاطر التي أنت مستعد لأخذها من أجل التعبير؟

ما هو الموضوع الذي تتمنى أن ترى تغطية وحوار عام حوله ولكنه غائب أو مغيب لأسباب تتعلق بالرقابة؟
ما هي أشكال مقاومة الرقابة؟
كيف ترى العلاقة بين الفن والسياسة والتعبير العام من خلال الفن؟

شاركنا رأيك هنا… وانضم اليوم الاثنين للحوار العام الذي يستضيفه مكان مع فنانين وصحفيين ونشطاء لمناقشة هذه الأسئلة وغيرها، الساعة ٧:٣٠ مساء

When you express your opinions and thoughts in a public forum, do you practice self-censorhip? What are your main reasons for self-censorship? Family? Work? Society? The Mukhabarat? The State?

What are the risks you’re willing to take for expression?

Is there a subject you would like to see covered and discussed publicly but you feel it’s absent because of censorship-related issues?

How do we resist censorship?

What’s the relationship between art and politics? How do you see public expression through art?

Have your Say here… and join the public debate today, Monday October 4th, that Makan is hosting with artists, journalists, writers, and activists around similar questions, at 7:30 pm.
