The First Amendment-- What is it?

The First Amendment of the Constitution was ratified on December 15th, 1791. Among ten other amendments included in the Bill of Rights, the First Amendment guarantees American citizens the protected freedom to establish and exercise religion, along with the freedoms of speech, press, and assembly. Among these freedoms, uninhibited speech is most commonly cited within America today. Legally, the U.S. government is prohibited from creating laws which restrict free speech. For example, the government cannot write a law that penalize citizens for expressing their dissenting opinions of war. Although the Constitution promises this right to everyone, it is ultimately left to the Supreme Court to decide whether a person or entity's actions are protected by the Constitution. Over the years since the First Amendment's appointment, the Supreme Court has made revisions and additional regulations through the decision of several case rulings. For example, in 1965 a case called Tinker v. Des...

Samidoun Group's Perspective

Charlotte Kates is cofounder and international coordinator for the anti-Israel charity and advocacy group, Samidoun: Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network. Kates' group is currently facing backlash for their steadfast support of classified terrorist group named the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).

Project Summary

Current Event The Samidoun: Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network group, an anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian rights group, has recently been declared as an illegal organization by the U.S. Treasury Department. This is the fault of the group's consistent support and funding of an established terrorist group: The Popular Front for Palestinian Liberation (PLFP). The PLFP has committed multiple massacres in the interest of defending the Palestinian people. Samidoun has repeatedly fundraised money for the PLFP to buy supplies and artillery, with which the terrorist group accomplishes violent and illegal acts. This project explores the U.S. laws relative to this case, and whether Samidoun's rights to free speech and assembly should still be protected by the Constitution.
