This sequel to the best-selling May It Please the Court focuses on key First Amendment cases illustrating the most controversial debates over issues of free speech, freedom of the press, and the right to assemble, including: Barnes v. Glen Theater (nude dancing), New York Times v. United States (the "Pentagon Papers" case), Texas v. Johnson (American flag burning), Brandenburg v. Ohio (hate speech by Klansmen) and Hustler Magazine, Inc. v. Falwell ("emotional distress" for parody advertisement). This paperback book includes transcriptions of oral arguments made before the Supreme Court, twelve of which have never been published. They offer an unrivaled view of the Supreme Court in action that will interest anyone wanting first-hand exposure to American law and history.
