Freedom of speech allows anyone, even those in school, to say and do what they feel—right? The 1969 Supreme Court case Tinker v. Des Moines serves as the backdrop for a study on First Amendment rights. Scholars use a short video along with small group work to analyze the Tinker case and understand how far freedom of speech actually goes in the world of public opinion. Using what they have learned, opinions of the court allow scholars to support their own beliefs as to who agrees and disagrees on the issue of free speech as it came to the court in 1969.
