Why This Matters
🛡️ Your shield against government overreach:
Every constitutional principle directly protects you from abuse of power—know them to use them.
🏛️ Democracy depends on informed citizens:

⚔️ Rights require active defense:
Throughout history, every right not actively defended gets eroded—constitutional literacy is self-defense against tyranny.
🌟 Practical knowledge for real situations:
From police encounters to voting rights, constitutional knowledge helps you navigate real-world power dynamics.
