Move Over Free Speech: Exercising Your Right to Protest

Freedom of speech gets all the attention when it comes to the First Amendment, but we also have the right to object. In this session, we’ll explore the right of the people peaceably to assemble: what it means and how it works, especially when responding to provocative speakers on campus.

Panelists

  • Amanda Knief, J.D., director of ISU Lectures Program
  • Carrie Jacobs, assistant chief, ISU Police
  • Moderator: Julie Roosa, J.D., Greenlee First Amendment specialist
