The correct answer is A. The right of people to express themselves

Step-by-step explanation:

The Fist amendment of the Consitution was adopted in 1791 and through this amendment it was established the government of the U.S. should protect the right to exercise religious freedom of press, the right to assemble and the freedom of speech and because of this, through this amendment it was forbidden the government created any law that could vulnerate any of the rights previously described. In terms of free speech or the right of people to express themselves this amendment was important because it directly addressed this human right; although it was later expanded by other documents that deal with political speech, school speech, anonymous speech, among others. Therefore, the human right the first amendment addressed was the right of people to express themselves or the freedom of speech.
