Students will join a discussion with Mary Beth Tinker. In 1969, at the age of 13-years-old, Tinker wore a black armband to school to protest the Vietnam War. A few other students, including her brother, joined her. The students were suspended for their actions; however, they believed their protest was a form of free speech. They took their case at the Supreme Court—and won. Tinker's story is highlighted in the Center’s new exhibit, The First Amendment.
