In this episode of Crayon Box Weekly, we dive into the historical development and legal foundations of the right to protest in the United States. We explore its origins from English legal traditions and the influence of philosophical figures like John Locke and Montesquieu, through the passage of the Bill of Rights and key Supreme Court decisions. Our discussion highlights significant protests and legal battles, including the Alien and Sedition Acts, the Civil Rights Movement, and landmark cases such as Tinker v. Des Moines and Texas v. Johnson.
