In her book, Dennie offers a rallying cry for a more just approach to the law that bolsters social justice movements by throwing out originalism—the theory that judges should interpret the Constitution exactly as conservatives say the Founders meant it. Instead, Dennie argues that the law must serve to make that promise of democracy real and argues in favor of a new approach that serves everyone: inclusive constitutionalism.
Alliance for Justice President Rakim H.D. Brooks will join Madiba K. Dennie for this conversation on the Constitution, who it belongs to, and how we can use it to fight for our rights.
