Know Your Rights - Resources for Protestors
Posted on Jul 3, 2020 1:53pm PDT
The First Amendment protects your right to assemble and express your views through protest. However, police and other government officials are allowed to place certain narrow restrictions on the exercise of speech rights. Make sure you’re prepared by brushing up on your rights before heading out into the streets.
