Lawyer, professor, and all-around whiz Madiba Dennie joins us for a lively discussion about her debut book, "The Originalism Trap, How Extremists Stole The Constitution And How We The People Can Take It Back."
Dennie's legal and political commentary has been featured in The Atlantic, The Washington Post, and more. She's shared her views about race, gender, and the law on BBC and MSNBC. She's taught at Western Washington University and NYU School of Law. She earned her law degree from Columbia Law School and her undergraduate degree from Princeton University, where she concentrated in Politics and earned a certificate in African-American Studies.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- What originalism is and how it’s affecting our country
- Why we cannot just “pass an amendment” to the Constitution (it’s not that easy!)
- Issues with the Supreme Court being largely unchecked and the structural reforms necessary to keep the Court from staying stagnant and divided
- Why Court expansion is needed
- And more!
