This course continues the exploration of the United States Supreme Court and its role in deciding fundamental social questions. After an introductory class on the Court, we will focus on landmark cases involving race in education, abortion, Second Amendment, and election law. Readings will include edited versions of the Court’s opinions. The final class will preview the Court’s 2023-2024 term. Students will develop a deeper understanding of the Court’s power, function, and role as part of the larger government and appreciate whether and when we should accede to the Court’s interpretation of the Constitution.
