Join me on December 2 for a discussion inspired by the Neshaminy High School newspaper controversy. This Constitution Conversation sponsored by My Daily Constitution will focus on the free speech rights of high school students and the government’s power to regulate that speech.
The dispute began when student editors of the Playwickian newspaper decided last year not to print the term "Redskin" in reference to the school's sports teams. Since then, the controversy has been the subject of extensive local and national media coverage. At our conversation, we’ll discuss the law underpinning the controversy, including the U.S. Supreme Court’s decisions in Tinker v. Des Moines, Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier, and West Virginia v. Barnette.
Best of all, attendees can take home a free copy of the U.S. Constitution courtesy of My Daily Constitution.
Tuesday Dec 2
6 - 8 PM
Levittown Branch, Bucks County Public Library
Large Meeting Room
7311 New Falls Road,
Levittown, PA 19055-1006
