Emma Goldman's Supreme Court appeal occurred during a transitional
point for First Amendment law, as justices began incorporating
arguments related to free expression into decisions on espionage
and sedition cases. This project analyzes the communications that
led to her arrest-writings in Mother Earth, a mass-mailed
manifesto, and speeches related to compulsory military service
during World War I-as well as the ensuing legal proceedings and
media coverage. The authors place Goldman's Supreme Court appeal in
the context of the more famous Schenck and Abrams trials to
demonstrate her place in First Amendment history while providing
insight into wartime censorship and the attitude of the mainstream
press toward radical speech.
