The First Amendment to the Bill of Rights is referred to as "Freedom of Speech".

It protects American citizens' rights to speak out against the government (freedom of speech), to belong to whatever religion they choose (freedom of religion), does not allow the government to restrict the media (freedom of the press), and allows private citizens to assemble, or protest, without fear of government retaliation (freedom of assembly).
