Today, we are constitutional scholars. We will explore the constitutional protections for an area of religious freedom the wearing of religious symbols. Many people wear religious symbols and/or adhere to religious clothing practices to express their religious devotion, beliefs and affiliations. These include but are not limited to:
Jewelry Crosses, stars of David, Hindu and Buddhist mandalas and lotus flowers, Sikh khandas, religious text inscriptions, and many others.
Clothing depictions of religious leaders, religious text and symbols, your church affiliation (on T-shirts, etc.)
Religion-specific clothing Catholic nun robes and veils, Christian Amish hair bonnets and men hats, Buddhist robes, the many types of Muslim women and men head coverings and dresses, Jewish men yarmulkes, Sikh turbans and many, many others.
While an individual may not support particular religious beliefs or practices, these beliefs and many practices, such as displaying religious symbolism and dress, are protected by the U.S. Constitution. Even in cases regarding the issuing of identification material (driver licenses, etc.) and full head-coverings, most states and the Federal government make accommodations that allow a female religious practitioner a private method to have her picture taken and/or to reveal herself for identification purposes.
What civil liberties ensured by the U.S. Constitution protect the right to wear religious dress and symbols? At least three should come to mind immediately. Referring back to Chapter 1, what principals of American political culture form the basis of these protections?
Identify the case facts. State the facts of the case. Why was this case heard by the Supreme Court? What constitutional question was being decided. 2. Outline the procedural history. Lower court beginnings. Where did this case first appear and how did it proceed through the court system. 3. State the issues in question. In this section of the brief, state the factual and legal questions that the court had to decide. 4. Describe the court’s rationale for each holding. You now should describe the court’s rationale (why they decided the way they did). This section may be the most important, because you must understand the court’s reasoning to analyze it and to apply it to law and other court cases. You are explaining how the court applied the US Constitution. 5. Explain the final disposition. Describe the final disposition of the case. Did the court decide in favor of the plaintiff or the defendant? 6. Include other opinions. Concurring and dissenting opinions are sometimes included and can help understand both sides of a court’s decision.
