Censorship in Troy

The IGDA's Core Values state that;

"Games are an expressive medium worthy of the same respect, and protections, as movies, literature and other forms of art and entertainment. We oppose any effort that would treat games differently from other forms of art and creative expression"

This act of shutting down Bilal's attempt to showcase his exhibit is in direct opposition to our rights as American Citizens. Bilal's freedom to express, and our freedom to engage in open dialogs about political issues. The medium used to express political opinions should not affect how the political statement is treated by authorities.
