the First Amendment(1991)
Freedom for the Thought That We Hate: A Biography of the Fi rst Amendmentis a 2007
non-fiction book byAnthony Lewisaboutfreedom of speech,freedom of the press,freedom
of thought, and theFirst Amendment to the United States Constitution. The book starts by
quoting the First Amendment, which prohibits the U.S. Congress from creating legislation
which limits free speech or freedom of the press. Lewis traces the evolution of civil libertiesin the U.S. through key historical events. He provides an overview of important free speech
case law, includingU.S. Supreme Courtopinions inSchenck v. United States(1919),Whitney
v. California(1927),United States v. Schwimmer(1929),New York Times Co. v. Sullivan
(1964), andNew York Times Co. v. United States(1971).
The title of the book is drawn from the dissenting opinion byAssociate Justice of the
Supreme Court of the United StatesOliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.in United States v.
Schwimmer. Holmes wrote that "if there is any principle of the Constitution that more
imperatively calls for attachment than any other, it is the principle of free thoughtnot free
thought for those who agree with us but freedom for the thought that we hate."[1]Lewis warns
the reader against the potential for government to take advantage of periods of fear andupheaval in apost-9/11 societyto suppress freedom of speech and criticism by citizens.
The book was positively received by reviewers, includingJeffrey RoseninThe New York
Times, Richard H. Fallon inHarvard Magazine,Nat Hentoff, twoNational Book Critics
Circlemembers, andKirkus Reviews.Jeremy Waldroncommented on the work forThe New
York Review of Booksand criticized Lewis' stance towards freedom of speech with respect to
hate speech. Waldron elaborated on this criticism in his bookThe Harm in Hate Speech
(2012), in which he devoted a chapter to Lewis' book. This prompted a critical analysis of
both works in The New York Review of Books by former Supreme Court JusticeJohn Paul
Stevens.

TheFirst Amendment to the United States Constitutionas part of the Bill of Rights in the
National Archives.
Freedom for the Thought That We Hate analyzes the value of freedom of speech and presents
an overview of the historical development of rights afforded to U.S. citizens by theFirst
Amendment to the United States Constitution.[2]The title of the book derives from an
admonition by Justice Holmes in his dissenting opinion in the 1929 case ofUnited States v.
Schwimmer.[1][3][4]
In this opinion, he asserted that the First Amendment is particularlynecessary during eras in U.S. history in which there is a risk of suppression of speech and
dissent due to increased fear and upheaval.[1][3][4]Holmes wrote that "if there is any principle
of the Constitution that more imperatively calls for attachment than any other, it is the
principle of free thoughtnot free thought for those who agree with us but freedom for the
thought that we hate."[1][3][4]
The book starts by quoting the First Amendment, which prohibits the U.S. Congress from
creating legislation that limits free speech or freedom of the press.[3][5]The author analyzes
the impact of this clause and refers to the writer of theUnited States Constitution,James
Madison, who believed that freedom of the press would serve as a form of separation of
powers to the government.[5]Lewis writes that an expansive respect for freedom of speechinforms the reader as to why citizens should object to governmental attempts to block the

media from reporting about the causes of a controversial war.[5]Lewis warns that, in a state in
which controversial views are not allowed to be spoken, citizens and reporters merely serve
as advocates for the state itself.[5]He recounts key historic events in which fear led to
overreaching acts by the government, particularly from theexecutive branch.[5]The author
gives background on the century-long process by which the U.S. judicial system began
defending publishers and writers from attempts at suppression of speech by thegovernment.[4]
The titleFreedom for the Thought That We Hate is derived from a quotation byOliverWendell Holmes, Jr.in his dissenting opinion in the 1929 caseUnited States v.
Schwimmer.[1][3][4]
In 1798 the federal government under PresidentJohn Adams, passed theAlien and Sedition
Acts, which deemed "any false, scandalous and malicious writing or writings against the
government of the United States" a criminal act.[3][6]The Alien and Sedition Acts were used
for political impact against members of theRepublican Partyin order to punish them for
criticizing the government.[5]Thomas Jeffersonwas elected the next president in 1800; Lewis
cites this as an example of the American public's dissatisfaction with Adams' actions against
freedom of speech.[5][7]After taking office in 1801, Jefferson issued pardons to those
convicted under the Alien and Sedition Acts.[3][7]Lewis interprets later historical events asaffronts to freedom of speech, including theSedition Act of 1918which effectively outlawed
criticism of the government's conduct of WW I; and theMcCarran Internal Security Actand
Smith Act, which were used to imprison US communists who where critical of the
government during theMcCarthyismera.[5]
During this period, with increased fear among the American public due to World War I and
attempts at suppression of criticism by the government, the First Amendment was given
wider examination in the U.S. Supreme Court.[5]Lewis writes thatAssociate JusticesLouis
BrandeisandOliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.began to interpret broader support for freedom of
speech imparted by the First Amendment.[5]Holmes wrote in the case ofSchenck v. United

reflects on his view of speech in the face of imminent danger in an age of terrorism.[6]He
writes that the U.S. Constitution permits suppression of speech in situations of impending
violence, and cautions use of the law to suppress expressive acts including burning a flag or
using offensive slang terms.[6]Lewis asserts that punitive measures can be taken against
speech which incites terrorism to a group of people willing to commit such acts.[6]
The book recounts an opinion written by Brandeis and joined by Holmes in the 1927 case of
Whitney v. Californiawhich further developed the notion of the power of the people to speak
out.[4]Brandeis and Holmes emphasized the value of liberty, and identified the most
dangerous factor to freedom as an apathetic society averse to voicing their opinions in
public.[4][9]
"There will always be authorities who try to make their own lives more comfortable by suppressing criticalcomment."
Anthony Lewis[3]
In the 1964 Supreme Court case ofNew York Times Co. v. Sullivan, the court ruled thatspeech about issues of public impact should be unrestricted, vigorous and public, even if such
discussion communicates extreme negative criticism of public servants and members of
government.[3][10]Lewis praises this decision, and writes that it laid the groundwork for a
press more able to perform investigative journalism concerning controversies, including the
Watergate scandaland theVietnam War.[3]He cites theNew York Times Co. v. Sullivan
decision as an example of "Madisonian" philosophy towards freedom of speech espoused by
James Madison.[7]The author examines the 1971 U.S. Supreme Court case ofNew York
Times Co. v. United States, and endorses the court's decision, which allowed the press to
publish classified material relating to the Vietnam War.[5][11]
The author questions the actions of the media with respect to privacy. He observes that public
expectations regardingmoralityand what constitutes an impermissible violation of the right
to privacy has changed over time.[5]Lewis cites the dissenting opinion by Brandeis in
Olmstead v. United States, which supported a right to privacy.[5][12]
Lewis warns that, during periods of heightened anxiety, the free speech rights of Americans
are at greater risk: "there will always be authorities who try to make their own lives more
comfortable by suppressing critical comment."[3]He concludes that the evolution of
interpretation of the rights afforded by the First Amendment has created stronger support for
freedom of speech.[3]
Themes [edit]
The book's central theme is a warning that, in times of strife and increased fear, there is a
danger of repression and suppression of dissent by those in government who seek to limit
freedom of speech.[13]In an interview with the author, Deborah Solomon ofThe New York
Times Magazinewrote that American politics has frequently used fear to justify
repression.[13]Lewis pointed out to Solomon that, under theEspionage Act of 1917and the
Sedition Act of 1918, individuals who protested against President Woodrow Wilson's sending
of soldiers to Russia were tried and given a twenty-year jail sentence.[13]The author
explained that his motivation for writing the book was to recognize the unparalleled civilliberties in the U.S., including freedom of speech and freedom of the press.[13]He identified

reductions in freedoms of citizens as a result of governmental action taken after the
September 11 attacks.[14]
Freedom for the Thought That We Hate discusses the capability and liberty of citizens to
criticize their government.[15]Lewis asserts that the U.S. has the most unreserved speech of
any nation.[15][16]
Law professorJeremy Waldrongave the example of his ability to criticizethe president or call the vice president andSecretary of Defensewar criminals, without fear
of retribution from law enforcement for such statements.[15]The book contrasts present-day
free speech liberties afforded to Americans and those possessed by citizens in earlier
centuries.[15]The author argues that the scope of civil liberties in the U.S. has increased over
time owing to a desire for freedom among its people being held as an integral value.[16]Lewis
observes in contemporary application of the law, presidents are the subject of satire and
denunciation.[15]He notes that it is unlikely a vociferous critic would face a jail sentence
simply for voicing such criticism.[15]
Release and reception [edit]

Group released ane-bookversion of the work in 2010.[23][24]
The book was positively received by critics.Jeffrey Rosen, who reviewed the book forThe
New York Times, was surprised by the author's departure from traditional civil libertarian
views.[25]Rosen pointed out that Lewis did not support absolute protection for journalists
from breaking confidentiality with theiranonymous sources, even in situations involving
criminal acts.[25]Nat Hentoffcalled the book an engrossing and accessible survey of the First

Freedom for the Thought That We Hate
7/10
Richard H. Fallon reviewed the book forHarvard Magazine, and characterizedFreedom for
the Thought That We Hate as a clear and captivating background education to U.S. freedom
of speech legislation.[27]Fallon praised the author's ability to weave descriptions of historical
events into an entertaining account.[27]Robyn Blumner of theSt. Petersburg Timeswrote that
Lewis aptly summarized the development of the U.S. Constitution's protections of freedom of
speech and of the press.[28]
She observed that the book forcefully presented the author'sadmiration of brave judges who had helped to develop interpretation of the U.S.
Constitution's protections of the rights of freedom of expression as a defense against
censorship.[28]
Writing for theHartford Courant, Bill Williams observed that the author described several
important Supreme Court cases and explained the need for the First Amendment.[3]Williams
stated that the book should be mandatory reading for high school and college students.[3]
Anne Phillips wrote in her review forThe News-Gazettethat the book is a concise and well-
written description of the conflicts the country faces when grappling with the notions of
freedom of expression, free speech, and freedom of the press.[29]Writing forThe Christian
Science Monitor, Chuck Leddy noted that the author helps readers understand the importanceof freedom of speech in a democracy, especially during a period of military conflict when
there is increased controversy over the appropriateness of dissent and open dialogue.[5]
Jeremy Waldron reviewed the book forThe New York Review of Books, and was critical of
Lewis' broad stance towards freedom of speech with respect tohate speech.[30]Waldron later
elaborated this position in his 2012 bookThe Harm in Hate Speech, in which he devoted an
entire chapter to Lewis' book.[31]Waldron emphasized that the problem with a expansive
view of free speech is not the harm of hateful thoughts, but rather the negative impact
resulting from widespread publication of the thoughts.[31]He questioned whether children of
racial groups criticized by widely published hate speech would be able to succeed in such an
environment.[31]Former U.S. Supreme Court JusticeJohn Paul Stevensanalyzed The Harm
in Hate Speech and discussedFreedom for the Thought That We Hate, in a review forThe
New York Review of Books.[17]Justice Stevens recounted Lewis' argument that an acceptance
of hate speech is necessary, because attempts to regulate it would cause encroachment upon
expression of controversial viewpoints.[17]He pointed out that Lewis and Waldron agreed that
Americans have more freedom of speech than citizens of any other country.[17]In his review,
Stevens cited the 2011 decision inSnyder v. Phelpsas evidence that the majority of the U.S.
Supreme Court supported the right of the people to express hateful views on matters of public
importance.[17]Stevens concluded that, although Waldron was unsuccessful in convincing
him that legislators should ban all hate speech, The Harm in Hate Speech did persuade him
that government leaders should refrain from using such language themselves.
