Symbolic Speech

Podgor, Ellen S.

Indiana Law Review, 9, 5, 1009-32, Jun 76

The concept of symbolic speech emanates from the 1967 case of United States v. O'Brien. These discussions of flag desecration, grooming and dress codes, nude entertainment, buttons and badges, and musical expression show that the courts place symbolic speech in different strata from verbal communication.
