The Bill of Rights was the first articulation in the Constitution of the rights we enjoy as US citizens. It recognizes and protects those rights, but how many of us actually know where they came from and what they are? This course will review their history, compare them to other rights documents in history, explore why they were added, and look at each of the Amendments with particular attention to the First Amendment.
Dr. John Ray taught courses in political science and philosophy at Montana Technological University in Butte for 48 years, retiring as a professor emeritus in May 2023. He received his PhD in political science from the University of Wisconsin. In addition to teaching, he gave numerous community presentations and taught free classes on politics, political theory and philosophy.
