    The answer is true.

    Explanation:

    The U. S Supreme Court interpreted the first ten amendments of the Constitution to protect the rights of citizens from state governments through a process called incorporation doctrine.

    It protected the citizens from the actions of the states by making the Bills of Rights applicable to every citizen through the Due Process clause without any state jurisprudence and interference.

    The rights contained in the first ten amendments of the Constitution were made indispensable and constitutionally incorporated into state legislatures and court of every state by 20th century.
