The 1969 Supreme Court case of Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District is the most important case concerning: Select one:
a. the censorship of articles in student publications
b. a student's right to pray in school
c. a student's right to passive speech
d. a student's right to active speech

c. a student's right to passive speech.

Explanation:

The case involved five public high school students that had worn black armbands to protest against the Vietnam war in December 1965, but the school board did not allow the protest and suspended the students. They came back to school in January without an armband but wearing black clothes, and they did so for the rest of the year.

The Supreme Court sentence said that public schools and officials can´t limit students´ freedom of speech unless they interrupt the normal education activities of the school. Because wearing an armband can hardly be seen as an interruption, students had the right to wear them according to the First Amendment.
