What if everything you thought you knew about the First Amendment was only half the story?

Center for Constitutional Law is excited to bring Burt Neuborne, a renowned civil liberties lawyer, Supreme Court advocate, and Founding Legal Director of the Brennan Center, who will illuminate the “music” behind Madison’s design of the Bill of Rights in his talk.

Drawing from his celebrated book Madison’s Music, Neuborne reveals the hidden structure and democratic purpose embedded in the First Amendment, offering a fresh, urgent understanding of how its protections work together to sustain American democracy. This is a timely conversation you won’t want to miss.
