Political Justice

A leading Supreme Court expert recounts the personal and philosophical rivalries that forged our nation's highest court and continue to shape our daily lives. The Supreme Court is the most mysterious branch of government, and yet the Court is at root a human institution, made up of very bright people with very strong egos, for whom political and judicial conflicts often become personal.

From nineteenth-century abolitionism to Black Lives Matter today, progressive social movements have been at the forefront of social change. Yet it is seldom recognized that such movements have not only engaged in political action but also posed crucial philosophical questions about the meaning of justice and about how the demands of justice can be met.

The most sophisticated weapon in the world is the human voice, more often than not it also the most damaging. The power of the voice can be used to bless or to destroy, it can be used to spread truth or lies, to speak peace or violence, to encourage or tear down, to build nations or pillage countries. Without the power of a voice you can become vulnerable, weak, and helpless. Your thoughts, requests, and protests, go unheard. That's what makes a democracy strong; each person has a voice in their vote. It's the manner that we choose and communicate with our representatives. Today we are in a...
