• Constitution Day conversation, Sept. 17, on 鈥淔reedom of Speech and the Constitution鈥�

  Monday September 16, 2024
  

  The Black Abolitionist Archive, along with the Departments of History and Political Science and the McNichols Campus Library, invite Detroit Mercy students, faculty, staff, alumni and community members to join us for our annual Constitution Day event on Tuesday, Sept. 17 at noon.

  The event will be held in the Bargman Room, located on the second floor of the McNichols Campus Library. A limited number of light lunches will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis, and all are welcome.

  This year鈥檚 theme is 鈥淔reedom of Speech and the Constitution鈥� and features a presentation and conversation with Professor of History Roy Finkenbine and Assistant Professor of Political Science Lee Dionne.

  September 17 is officially Constitution Day and Citizenship Day, so designated by a joint resolution of the United States Congress to commemorate the 1787 signing of the United States Constitution on that date. Each educational institution that receives federal funds for a fiscal year is required to hold an educational program on Constitution Day about the United States Constitution for its students.

  The First Amendment of the United States Constitution protects, among other freedoms, the freedom of speech and states that Congress cannot make laws that limit freedom of speech. This means that the government generally cannot punish people or organizations for what they say or write, unless in exceptional circumstances, and Constitution Day is a day to celebrate the document that protects these rights.

  Please join us for what will most likely be a spirited conversation!
