Description: The discussion of the meaning and interpretation of the first ten Amendments to the Constitution has become central to public discourse. But with unmediated news sources and fake news abounding, it is difficult to grapple with the issues without an unbiased guide. This book aims to inform the interested citizen of the Framers' ideas that underpin the First Amendment, along with the subsequent history, illustrated with easily accessible examples from popular culture.
