If the original constitution of the United States of America is such a perfect document, then why do we have the Bill of Rights? Why were they so important to add? And what exactly are our rights contained in those Amendments?
In this presentation you can expect to learn about the contents of the first ten amendments to the Constitution, plus we're throwing in the 14th too, just for fun! We'll talk about the rights given to all American citizens in these amendments and why adding them to the original document was such an important step in the development of the United States of America.
Presenter: Eleanor E. Lynn, Esq.
