What do we expect or hope from our cities in response to mass protests? Join us at 10 or email feedback@yourcallradio.org. What's your reaction to the recent Occupy crackdowns?

Should video games be treated as a form of expression?

Should video games be treated as a form of expression like books and music? On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation about video games and free speech. The Supreme Court recently struck down a California law that banned the sale of violent video games. Video game advocates celebrated the ruling saying there's more to games than violence. They say they're a form of expression and the law now says they are art. Do you agree? Join us at 10 or email feedback@yourcallradio.org. Do you play video games? What do you get out of them? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar.

Guests:
Evan Narcisse, freelance writer who covers comic books, pop culture, and video games

Alan Simpson, vice president of policy for Common Sense Media

Peter Brinson, videogame developer, filmmaker and instructor at the Interactive Media Division of USC School of Cinematic Arts
