Episode 9 | Unpacking the Constitution, Part 1

To paraphrase John Locke: the 1st amendment give us a marketplace of ideas where truth can win out. In an open marketplace, people will find the truth.

This episode is the first in an ongoing series that we are doing called Unpacking the Constitution. Our goal with this series is to educate our listeners on our Constitutional rights and how we can all arm ourselves with the knowledge to become more informed and effective citizens.

We are joined by Dan Martin, who has quickly become our resident Constitutional Scholar. You’ll remember Dan from Episode 3 where we talked about the push by some parents and school board members to ban books they do not agree with from public school libraries and classrooms.

In this episode, Dan walks us through the 1st amendment and the protections it provides us, along with how it relates to other amendments, specifically the 4th, 9th, and 14th amendments when it comes to abortion and other self-actualized rights.
