F.A.C.T. – First Amendment Culture Team

Assert your First Amendment rights by joining a Nationwide General Strike today. No Work, No Shopping, No School. Abolish Ice.

ICE is sending people to concentration camps because of their First Amendment protected tattoos. The Nazis targeted tattooed people as "asozial,” madethem wear a black triangle and sent them to concentration camps. #FightFascism #FirstAmendmentFriday

The first weeks of 2026 have been marked by escalating attacks on our democracy and our First Amendment rights in efforts in the shadows to remake our country into an autocracy. The fight to retain our constitutionally granted personal liberty starts with using it. Speak. Create. Assemble. Dissent.

This Friday, and every Friday (and every day) is First Amendment Friday. Please join us at factnyc.substack.com – The First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution protects five freedoms: Freedom of Religion, Freedom of Speech, Freedom of the Press, Freedom of Assembly, Right to Petition the Government.

The First Amendment isn’t just a right—it’s the frontline. If we want to win the war on culture and push back against censorship, we protect speech. Always. #FirstAmendment #FirstAmendmentFriday

he First Amendment is under assault. But artists and activists are fighting back. Exploring what free speech really means—and costs—in America right now.

It's First Amendment Friday. Read our weekly First Amendment Bulletin at factnyc.substack.com

First Amendment Friday - The right to speak, to create, to question, to protest, to imagine—these aren't luxuries. They're the architecture of a free society. Hold them tight. Defend them fiercely. Not because the system is perfect, because a world without the freedom to challenge it dies in silence

Last Saturday, F.A.C.T. took to the streets with millions across the country for the No Kings march—and what a day it was. We danced, we chanted, we celebrated the power of peaceful assembly and free speech. Because the First Amendment isn't just words on paper. This is what democracy looks like.

Stand up. Speak out. Protest.
Join us for the No Kings Protest this Saturday, Oct 18 — and put the First Amendment into action.

What does the First Amendment protect that you haven't made yet?

Every play unwritten, every empty canvas, stage, and rehearsal room is a protected space of potential. That space only remains open through practice.

What are you brave enough to make that doesn't exist yet?

“If there is a bedrock principle underlying the First Amendment, it is that the government may not prohibit the expression of an idea simply because society finds the idea itself offensive or disagreeable.” Justice William Brennan #firstamendmentfriday #firstamendment #freespeech #itsyourright🇺🇸

Your voice.
Your protest sign.
Your art.
Your faith.
Your right to know.

It’s all protected—if we protect it.
Authoritarians thrive when we’re silent.
Let’s get loud, get informed, and get active.
