Adult Entertainment and the First Amendment

 

 

David Hudson serves as an attorney for the First Amendment Center at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee. The Center, which is funded by the Freedom Forum, seeks to foster a greater public understanding and appreciation for First Amendment rights and values. Hudson writes for the Freedom Forum's online publication, The Freedom Forum Online, and other leading publications devoted to First Amendment issues. He contributes regularly to the American Bar Association's Preview of United States Supreme Court Cases, the Commercial Speech Digest and the ABA Journal.

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.
