About the Event:

The 1960s witnessed a series of important Supreme Court decisions that reflected a massive shift in how judges understand the Constitution and the role of the Courts regarding social change. This judicial revolution explains the pitched partisan battles over Supreme Court nominations we see today, and the ongoing debate over what the Constitution’s original meaning really is.
