Bill of Rights: Bill of Responsibility

Bill Maher hosts this witty inquiry into the meaning of the Constitution today. Drawing examples from current events and pop culture, Maher reveals the Constitution as “a living document.” Beginning with a brief overview of the full document, then focusing on the Bill of Rights, Maher demonstrates history as an evolving process. Insightful commentary encourages students to relate current events to the First, Second, Fourth, and Fifth Amendments, and others. Archival footage provides historical context and familiar contemporary references. A Cambridge Educational Production. (30 minutes)
