Today's WYCE Day Sponsorship comes to you from the Community Media Center, proudly showcasing the importance of Media Literacy this week.

In honor of media literacy week, the Community Media Center is proud to present this first amendment quote of the day:

"If the First Amendment means anything, it means that a state has no business telling a man, sitting alone in his house, what books he may read or what films he may watch." 

This first amendment quote is from Thurgood Marshall, civil rights lawyer and jurist who served as an associate justice of the Supreme Court from 1967 to 1991.
