Freedom of Speech: The Core Value of Polly's Restaurant

Here at Polly’s we believe in a one-core value. That value is, freedom of speech. A night in my restaurant should be exhilarating and thought provoking for all guest that step foot through the doors of Polly’s. In this establishment each of you should feel at home and comfortable when discussing your views on the matters presented to you. We are on the line of a New America, and with the input and discussions we hold here we are working towards bettering this society we live in. As suffragist, laborers, bohemians, and villagers it is our duty to engage actively with the speakers of the day. Each group of individuals bring something entirely different into this restaurant; looks, ideas, ways we act, etc. With each of you knowing that, you should

They go through life with the qualities of youth, joy, and freedom. They explore homosexuality and free love; they are one of rebellious spirit. Many Bohemian’s are associated with poverty, and very independent. Charles Lamb made a famous remark on bohemianism, it stated, “a man can never have too much time, not too little to do. That was a temperamental, a delightfully Bohemian remark” (p. 211). Our bohemian culture and society are full of eager individuals who live a much faster pace of living. Even though in many aspects our Bohemian lifestyle differs from those of laborers, suffragist, villagers, middle class, and the upper class we still have one thing in common. What is it that we have in common you might ask? Well it’s that we are all human, and here at Polly’s we are proof that multiple citizens from numerous walks of life can gather in a civilized manner and show American citizens that change is okay. If you go to the city of New York you will not find or feel a vast bohemian atmosphere. However, one

can all sit down comfortably. They can eat, drink, and have conversations in a logical and pleasing approach for hours on end. Each assembly can advocate their beliefs and ideas as well as build relations and bring problems into proper light. When Americans come into this establishment and begin to come in contact with today’s problems in society their mind grows, and the picture of life on the stage whose underlying interest is truth. We hear the problems of children and pregnant women who face unfair work, we hear about the workers who work over the hours they are supposed to, strikes that are going to take place etc. Here at Polly’s we hear the real problems that people face and the speeches given by the villagers, suffragist, and laborers help bring fourth discussions, questions, and answers regarding the tough problems each group is facing. All speeches deserve respect, what I mean by this is that each patron should be engaged during the speech. Each of you should be asking questions and participating in the discussions held after each speech. With this it will help bring more knowledge to each topic being discussed that day. Each of you should want to know every aspect of the problems being brought fourth in the speeches given. Voting day is coming up and being welcomed into Polly’s with open arms is your way of gathering information and hearing the ideas of fellow
