for this free virtual event
In its last term, the Supreme Court undermined the federal government’s power to solve problems and the public’s ability to hold political leaders accountable. Meanwhile, in lower courts around the country, judges are dealing with a deluge of cases under the Court’s new history-based rules about abortion, guns, and affirmative action. Where does the fight against originalism stand now, and what’s in store?
Join us for a live virtual event as leading historians and Brennan Center experts delve into some of the Court’s most significant recent rulings, how they will shape upcoming legal debates, and how the recent originalist rulings are affecting Americans’ lives.
Produced in partnership with the Organization of American Historians
