SUMMARY:NSNC Hosts First Amendment Forum
DESCRIPTION:Despite an abundance of media outlets and formats\, our nation’s freedom of speech is imperiled. The First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution guarantees that the government may enact no laws regarding the establishment of religion\, and bestows the rights of free speech\, freedom of the press\, and the right of peaceable assembly. Yet\, the public is increasingly skeptical of information received through news sources\, wary of its privacy being protected\, and anxious that its rights of free expression and peaceable assembly are being impeded. \nWhat are the underlying concerns about this fundamental right that’s causing our societal unease\, and what can be done to ensure the most essential of American rights is protected? To discuss this vital issue\, the NSNC has assembled four expert panelists for a virtual First Amendment Forum on Monday\, October 26\, at 8 p.m. They include: \n \n\nRobyn Blumner\, the President and CEO of the Center for Inquiry\, which stands for the separation of church and state.\nLori Duff\, an Atlanta-area municipal-court judge\, columnist\, and author of several books.\nMichael Leonard\, who’s been an adjunct professor at Indiana University since 1987 and a longtime journalist.\nTom Melia\, director of the Washington\, DC\, office of PEN America\, which works to facilitate the unfettered creation of art and exchange of ideas.\n\nEach panelist will speak for approximately 10 minutes on their area of expertise\, and then the session will be open to Q and A for all participants. The cost is $25. Whether you’re a journalist\, an academic\, or simply a concerned citizen\, we hope you’ll join us for this opportunity to discuss and outline how we can protect and enhance the vitality of our Constitutional protections. \nRegister Now
