Detailed yet highly readable, this book explores essential and
illuminating primary source documents that provide insights into
the history, development, and current conceptions of the First
Amendment to the Constitution. The freedom to speak one's mind is a
subject of great importance to most Americans but especially to
students, minorities, and those who are socially or economically
disadvantaged—individuals whose voices have historically been
censored or marginalized in American society. Documents Decoded:
Freedom of Speech offers accessible, student-friendly explanations
of specific developments in freedom of speech in the United States
and carefully excerpted primary documents, making it an
indispensable resource for educators seeking to teach the First
Amendment and for students wanting to learn more about important
free-speech decisions. The chronologically ordered documents
explore topics typically covered in American history and government
curricula, addressing such contemporary issues as the regulation of
online speech, flag desecration, parody, public school student
speech, and the Supreme Court's recent decisions on the issue of
corporate speech rights.
