CALLING ALL HUAC, post 9/11 and COINTELPRO Veterans!

The FIRST AMENDMENT FELON is out!

Robert Sherrill's book on the life and times of Frank Wilkinson has been published and is now available at www.amazon.com and your local bookstore! We are currently seeking to enlist folks, including those who experienced our government’s abuses of dissenters, to help us publicize and do readings of the book, and help build a bigger movement to resist further abuses.

First Amendment of the Bill of Rights: “Congress shall make no law…abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.”

The First Amendment Foundation is a non-profit foundation that initiates educational programs on vanguard First Amendment constitutional rights issues, giving priority to:

• exposing encroachment by government agencies on the rights of free expression including defending the right of political dissent of individuals and organizations; and
• sharing educational materials to audiences unfamiliar with or inattentive to the threats to the First Amendment.

The Foundation was established in 1985, incorporated in California, now headquartered in Washington, D.C., and
is a 501(c)(3) organization.
