hi!
Step-by-step explanation:
5. What is the Establishment Clause and what does it mean?
The First Amendment's Establishment Clause prohibits the government from making any law “respecting an establishment of religion.” This clause not only forbids the government from establishing an official religion, but also prohibits government actions that unduly favor one religion over another.
6. What were the Alien and Sedition Acts?
A series of laws known collectively as the Alien and Sedition Acts were passed by the Federalist Congress in 1798 and signed into law by President Adams. These laws included new powers to deport foreigners as well as making it harder for new immigrants to vote.
7. ___________________ vs. _______________ is the Supreme Court Case where the Court ruled that it would violate the First Amendment's protection of the freedom of the press to prevent the publisher from writing things in the future. This act of prevention is called Prior Restraint.
Schenck v. United States.
9. Provide specifics about what the ruling in each case allowed and the amendment was the basis for its decision.
Roe v. Wade –
Roe v Wade was a big decision made by the Supreme Court of the United States about abortion.
Griswold vs. Connecticut -
The Court ruled that together, the First, Third, Fourth, and Ninth Amendments create the right to privacy in marital relations and that the Connecticut statute that conflicted with the exercise of this right was therefore null and void.
Lawrence v. Texas -
Lawrence v. Texas was a law that criminalized intimate relationships between adults of the same gender. Writing for the Court, Judge Anthony M. Kennedy invalidated the law on the grounds that the constitutional guarantee of "freedom gives substantial protection to adults when deciding how to conduct their private lives in matters related to intimate relationships" and that This freedom extends to people who like others of their gender.
13. What was this case about and what movement did it help? Brown v. Board of Education
Brown v. Board of Education was actually the name given to five separate cases that were heard by the U.S. Supreme Court concerning the issue of segregation in public schools.
These cases were:
Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka
Briggs v. Elliot
Davis v. Board of Education of Prince Edward County (VA.)
Bolling v. Sharpe
Gebhart v. Ethel.
While the facts of each case are different, the main issue in each was the constitutionality of state-sponsored segregation in public schools.
Once again, Thurgood Marshall and the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund handled these cases.
