No. 404 -The Story of John Twyn and the First Amendment
In this episode we take it all the way back to 17th-century London to discuss the case of John Twyn and how it relates to America today. Twyn's story is about the harsh control of King Charles II and the Church of England and the restraints their control posed on religion, speech, and the press. We learn how those crackdowns ultimately influenced the freedoms enshrined in the America’s First Amendment. Along the way, we explore what “freedom of speech” really means, how it’s sometimes misunderstood, and why it's important to understand history our principles.
