The First Amendment
by Kersten Swinyard
The interplay among the five freedoms guaranteed in the First Amendment (freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly and petition) form the core of speech protection in the United States. Those freedoms are also at the crux of popular culture, court cases, and a million invocations of the First Amendment in causes from hard-core pornography to religious pamphleteering. I am studying the intersection of the First Amendment and daily life--the junction of historical lore and present application.
