a short para / speech on silence is unacceptable in the face of injustice
Answers
Explanation:
The virtues of silence have long been recognized. The popular saying “speech is silver but silence is golden” may date back to ancient Egypt. It probably means that in some circumstances the less you say the better it is. I can imagine that when you are in the company of strangers, discretion would be more appropriate than indiscretion.
Keeping a secret can be a form of silence that is highly ethical.
Silence in some cases is a legal right. If you are being arrested, you do have “the right to remain silent.” The Fifth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution permits you not to answer specific questions when you may, by the answers given, incriminate yourself.
Sometimes silence is an obligation as when its purpose is not to disturb the tranquility of others such as in the library or the Amtrak silence car. I am afraid I was oblivious to that obligation last week as I boarded an Amtrak train on my way to Annapolis, Md., to speak to a PRSA Chapter. I asked the gentleman sitting next to me whether he was going to Washington, D.C. He looked at me as if I was insane, which prompted me to question his sanity. He finally, with apparently great self-control, whispered to me intensely: “This is the silence car!” I did not even know Amtrak had one!

Answer:
I agree silence can be good at time, but I don’t think corporate companies have the luxury to choose anymore with the creation of social media. I think it’s the companies responsibility to speak up when certain issues are being debated in society or else they lose the loyalty of their consumers. Just in the last couple of days we have seen various companies speak out against gun violence and divest from the NRA. Saying nothing also says something.
