Civil Liberties: Safeguarding the Individual

In this tutorial, your knowledge and opinions of civil rights will be tested against three real-world Supreme Court cases. For each, you will learn the facts of the case and form an opinion about the civil rights at stake, and then compare your views to the actual ruling of the Supreme Court. You will learn how the Constitution protects (and limits) the rights of individuals in our country!
