The first amendment. We all have these wonderful rights but do you know what all of these rights entail? There are five rights in this great, and all-important, first amendment. Freedom of speech, freedom to assemble (protest) peaceably, freedom of the press, freedom of religion, and the freedom to redress a grievance.  These unalienable rights that are our first amendment were addressed many years ago by our founding fathers and are so important to us all. It was our great "Founding Fathers" that realized and could foresee what might happen in the future if the first amendment wasn't created.  Without the first amendment and all that it encompasses, we Americans would not be able to live our lives and do what we want when we want, and how we want. We wouldn't be able to express ourselves (with our actions), voice our opinions, and have debates. Americans would find it extremely difficult, if not impossible, to be able to listen to the news, listen to music, go on the internet, read or write a book, protest for a cause, dance, sing your song, and so much more. We would definitely lose a lot of our identity. It's a scary thought. This is a must-listen-to episode! And luckily for our first amendment, you can do so.  Links for in this episode: Simple 5-minute video on the freedom of speech (made in 2019): https://youtu.be/ZLEJAyy_JsY "What If We Didn't Have The First Amendment?": https://www.mic.com/articles/188402/what-if-we-didnt-have-the-first-amendment Freedom of Speech Explained: https://informationstation.org/video/freedom-of-speech-explained/ Pirate Radio In Boulder: https://melmagazine.com/en-us/story/the-last-remaining-radio-pirates-broadcasting-for-freedom The Story of the White Rose and Sophie Scholl: https://www.citizensforfreespeech.org/the_courageous_story_of_the_white_rose Freedom of Speech - Pro's and Con's: https://connectusfund.org/17-freedom-of-speech-pros-and-cons "Hey, Americans, Appreciate Your Freedom of Speech" (NPR): https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=103521950 "The Price of Candy Will Be Higher This Halloween": https://informationstation.org/kitchen_table_econ/the-price-of-candy-will-be-higher-this-halloween/
