The First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution forbids Congress from making laws prohibiting certain unalienable rights.
Following are the freedoms expressly stated in the First Amendment which are unlawful for Congress to infringe upon:
* Freedom of religion
* Freedom of speech
* Freedom of the press
* The right to peaceably assemble
* The right to petition the government for a redress of grievances
The first amendment includes the freedom of religion (congress shall pass no law respecting an establishment of religion), freedom of the press, freedom of speech, freedom of peaceful assembly, and freedom to petition for a governmental redress of grievances.
It is the first amendment that gives us the separation of church and state--though the actual phrase is not in it. The phrase was derived from a letter by Thomas Jefferson.
The freedoms it guarantees are so much a part of our daily lives.
The government can not prohibit freedom of speech, religion, press, peacefully assemble, or petition.

It should first be noted that the words "human rights" are not in the constitution itself. But the rights Americans have certainly are elaborated in a number of the amendments. Most important is the First Amendment to the constitution, written by James Madison, who became the fourth president of the United States. This amendment guarantees freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, etc. Voting rights were granted to black males in the fifteenth amendment, and to women in the nineteenth amendment.
