SUMMARY:MEDIATED LIVES:  The United States vs. TikTok
DESCRIPTION:JAM welcomes the public to join this interactive Supreme Court oral arguments simulation in which YOU\, the audience\, will decide the case. Discussion about this case\, larger issues of free speech and social media it raises\, and the workings of the US Supreme court to follow. \nPresented in partnership with Vermont Law and Graduate School and Lebanon High School\, this event is free\, open to the public\, and will be recorded by JAM.  Please RSVP below. \nTHE FIRST AMENDMENT AND THE TIKTOK BAN: \nA MOOT COURT EXERCISE \nI. Overview \nIn 2024 Congress passed the “Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary\nControlled Application Act\,” often popularly referred to as the “TikTok Ban.”\nTikTok is a short-form video hosting service owned by the Chinese internet\ncompany ByteDance. The Act designates the People’s Republic of China as a\n“foreign adversary” nation. The Act requires ByteDance to divest TikTok\, so that\nTikTok is no longer owned and controlled by a Chinese company. If TikTok is not\ndivested\, it will no longer be permitted to operate in the United States.\nTikTok and ByteDance\, joined by several American creators\, persons who\npost creative content on TikTok\, filed a federal lawsuit claiming that the Act\nviolated the First Amendment’s guarantee of freedom of speech.\nIn this exercise the audience will hear an oral argument on the\nconstitutionality of the TikTok ban. Audience members will serve as members of\nthe United States Supreme Court. Rod Smolla\, President of Vermont Law and\nGraduate School\, will first play the role of a lawyer representing TikTok\, attacking\nthe TikTok Ban\, and then play the role of a lawyer representing the United States\,\ndefending the TikTok Ban. The audience members playing the roles of Supreme\nCourt Justices will be invited to interrupt and question both lawyer-advocates.\nFollowing the arguments the audience members will be invited to explain why they\nbelieve the Ban should or should not be upheld\, followed by an audience vote on\nthe outcome. \n\n \n  \n \nAbout Rodney A. Smolla\, JD\, President\, Vermont Law and Graduate School: \nPreviously president of Furman University\, and dean at Washington and Lee University and University of Richmond law schools\, Professor Smolla has long been a strong advocate for experiential learning\, the development of professional competencies\, and civic engagement. The author of more than 100 articles published in law reviews and other publications\, he is a nationally known scholar on matters relating to constitutional law\, civil rights\, freedom of speech\, and mass media\, particularly matters relating to libel and privacy.  Learn more. \n  \nABOUT MEDIATED LIVES\nThis event is part of JAM’s “Mediated Lives” series which aims to explore the roll of our current media landscape in shaping American culture\, free speech\, creativity\, community\, and democracy.
