The First Amendment provides protection to forms of free expression
that many people dislike, including hate speech, flag burning as a form of
political protest and non-obscene sexual expression.
Arguably, no area of First Amendment jurisprudence produces more
outrage than adult entertainment litigation. To the surprise of many, the U.S.
Supreme Court has ruled that nude dancing is a form of free expression that
merits a degree of First Amendment protection. However, the courts have
upheld numerous restrictions on this form of expressive conduct.
This course will test participants through real appellate court
cases in the controversial subject of Adult Entertainment.
