新興的美國於17911215日通過權利法案 (Bill of Rights)

你知道什麼是「權利法案」嗎?這是美國憲法的前十項修正案,確認了美國公民的基本權利。新興的美國在17911215日通過了這項法案。第一修正案確保人民的宗教自由、言論自由、出版自由,以及和平集會請願的自由。你知道還包括其他哪些權利嗎?

被稱為「權利法案之父」的喬治梅森 (George Mason) ,仔細的寫下這些確保個人自由的修正案。終其一生,他都是捍衛人類權利與自由的鬥士。


Do you know your Bill of Rights? It is the first 10 amendments to the U.S. Constitution, confirming the fundamental rights of American citizens. The new United States of America adopted them on December 15, 1791. The First Amendment guarantees freedom of religion, speech, and the press, the rights of peaceful assembly and petition. Do you know what the others do?

George Mason, the "Father of the Bill of Rights," carefully wrote out these amendments to ensure individual liberties. He was a lifelong champion of the rights and freedoms of people.
