Which statement accurately summarizes how Americans' civil liberties changed as a result of 20th-century Supreme Court rulings?
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. As a result of 20th century Supreme Court rulings, symbolic political speech gained substantial protections from government regulations.

Explanation:

Symbolic speech is a term that describes communicative situations in which the message transmitted is not literally expressed by the interlocutor. This type of speech is covered by the First Amendment implicitly.

Rulings such as Tinker v. Des Moines, United States v. O'Brien, Texas v. Johnson, and Cohen v. California expanded the protection of this type of discourse, including it within the protections of the First Amendment to freedom of expression.

For example, in the case Texas v. Johnson, it was established that the burning of an American flag involved a case of symbolic speech, so it should not be subject to prohibition by any type of law.
