Most school children in the United States learn about the Bill of Rights, but few know the extend of their rights under the Fourth and Fifth Amendments. This video, produced by Flex Your Rights, an educational not for profit, takes the viewer through a series of scenarios where regular people encounter the police in common situations. Narrated by former ACLU director Ira Glasser, this video illustrates what your rights are in those situations, and how to deal with the police in a way that both respects the law, and protects your constitutional freedoms.
