When Pete Seeger appeared before the House Un-American Activities Committee in 1955, he refused to answer the committee's questions about
his personal beliefs. He based his refusal on:
A. the Fifth Amendment, which says you can't be forced to testify
against yourself.
B. the Sixth Amendment, which guarantees a speedy trial by an
impartial jury.
C. the First Amendment, which guarantees freedom of speech.
D. the Fourth Amendment, which guards against unreasonable
search and seizure.
