How do we reconcile our Constitutional right to freedom of speech with contemporary issues like book banning and misinformation? In our first of four episodes, we discuss the U.S. Constitution's headliner, the First Amendment. We're joined by guests John Culhane, J.D., Distinguished Professor of Law and Co-Director of the Family Health Law & Policy Institute at Widener University; Elaine Maimon, PhD., Advisor, American Council on Education, past president Governors State University; and Joslyn Diffenbaugh, founder of Kutztown Teen Banned Book Club and 2022 recipient of the HMH Foundation’s First Amendment Award.
