Sample Lesson 2

MLK, Civil Rights & the Birth of the Modern First Amendment

More than 260,000 Americans of every racial and ethnic persuasion
assembled peaceably on Aug. 28, 1963, to exercise their rights under
the First Amendment to effect social and political change. The March
on Washington for Jobs and Freedom can be described accurately as
the Mount Everest of First Amendment Activism, never surmounted.
