Hi there,
The meaning of Freedom of Speech is to know what the people (community) in local states or countries have to say, like when it comes to voting or regular politics they want to hear the people's voices and see what they are comfortable with or how certain things they might vote on affects their lives and the whole state.
Freedom of Speech is a part of the Constitution in fact, it is the First Amendment. it says: <em>Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.</em>
So, Congress cannot pass any law without the people's voices or approval then they have to pass it onto the president for the final signature.
That is what Freedom of Speech means
Hope this helped
Have a great day :)

Lincoln-Douglas debates were a series of debates between Stephen A Douglas a Democratic senator and Abraham Lincoln, who at the time was in a senatorial campaign for the Republican party.
The main cause for the debates was the issue of slavery into the territories, that gained major importance with the addition of new territories with the Mexican American War.
On the first debate, Douglas claimed that by advocating for slavery prohibition in the US the Republican Party aimed to miscegenate the nation, by mix-racing through sexual relations or marriage. Lincoln, on the other hand, had a different argument, he sustained that the Union could not remain united if the government remains “half slave half free” he wanted this way, to cease division by ending slavery.
On the second debate, Douglas responded with the Freeport Doctrine and sustained that the people of the US had the means to introduce or exclude slavery as they pleased and he also accused Lincoln of not accepting the Supreme Court decision on the Dred Scott case. Lincoln argued that the Courts decision allowed slavery into the free states and sustained that Douglas ignored the basic humanity of black people and that slaves also had an equal right to liberty.
The debates resulted in Douglas winning the seat in the Senate by 54-46, but the Debates propelled Lincoln into national political spotlight what gave him the opportunity to become president and beat Douglas as the Northern Democratic candidate in the process.
