A Practical, Plain-English Tour of America’s Most Powerful FreedomThe Practical Guide to Free Speech turns one of America’s most misunderstood freedoms into an engaging, surprisingly fun exploration of how the First Amendment actually works.Imagine a world where an off-color joke or unpopular opinion could land you in jail. For most of human history, that wasn’t imagination - it was reality. The First Amendment changed everything.The Practical Guide to Free Speech is your passport through the strange, funny, and often fiery history of America’s most essential right. Tom McHale unpacks the legal battles and cultural clashes that defined what we can say, write, post, or shout without ending up in handcuffs (or canceled). You’ll meet the people and court cases that stretched and stressed the limits of free expression - from revolutionaries and muckrakers to students, soldiers, and meme-makers.This isn’t a textbook; it’s a conversational, story-driven guide that makes complex ideas crystal clear. Along the way, you’ll learn how to spot genuine threats to free speech - and how to separate them from everyday disagreement.McHale’s trademark mix of humor and insight turns constitutional law into an adventure in logic, courage, and the occasional absurdity. By the end, you won’t just know what the First Amendment says - you’ll understand why it matters, and how it protects the messy, marvelous thing we call public conversation.Discover how America’s most debated freedom actually works in real life.
