What can America expect from the Supreme Court’s next term?
After the seismic rulings of the court’s last term, Jon Fasman asks author and law professor Eric Segall how else it could change the country
THE SUPREME COURT is changing America. In its last term, it eliminated the constitutional right to abortion, loosened gun laws and eroded the separation of church and state. Host Jon Fasman asks Eric Segall, professor of law at Georgia State University, what will happen in the upcoming term and whether the court could be reformed. They also discuss the role of “originalism”, the judicial philosophy that interprets the constitution precisely as it was written by its authors. Runtime: 31 min
