“The freedom of religion, of speech, and of the press, the right to peaceful meetings, the right to seek redress— these five important freedoms are democracy’s foundation. Know these rights – defend them – and we’ll build a stronger nation.” —Free for You and Me: 
What Our First Amendment Means These are the final words of the picture book Free for You and Me: What Our First Amendment Means (Albert Whitman & Company). Curriculum Coordinator Michelle Amato and the team at Curious City share discussion questions, research, and project ideas to help students know and defend their rights and in doing so, “build a stronger nation.” Rich in online resources from sources like the ACLU and Teaching Tolerance, this document can be used for a guided or self-guided exploration of the First Amendment and its freedoms.
