America&rsquo;s First Amendment is being tested like never before. Can it withstand the pressures of politics, dark money and artificial intelligence? Co-hosted by NBC News&rsquo; Tom Costello and Colorado Public Radio&rsquo;s Bazi Kanani, The First examines the unprecedented threats facing the First Amendment today while tracing its turbulent history - from Thomas Jefferson&rsquo;s ideas about individual freedom and James Madison&rsquo;s drafting of the Bill of Rights to the Alien and Sedition Acts, the Espionage Act and landmark Supreme Court cases that redefined Americans&rsquo; constitutional freedoms. <a fr-original-style="" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tI4fQJkZhMo" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="text-decoration-color: currentcolor; user-select: auto; box-sizing: inherit;" target="_blank">Watch the trailer for The First</a> Join Rocky Mountain PBS for a free screening of this timely documentary at the Buell Public Media Center.
