Miscellaneous
Jeffrey Rosen moderates a conversation looking back at some of America’s greatest Supreme Court justices in history, including Chief Justice John Marshall, one of the founders of constitutional law; Justice John Marshall Harlan, famous for his dissent in Plessy v. Ferguson in which he argued against the doctrine of “separate but equal;” and others—from Justice Benjamin Curtis to Justice Antonin Scalia. Rosen was joined by Robert Strauss, author of the new book John Marshall: The Final Founder; Peter Canellos, editor at Politico and author of the new book The Great Dissenter: The Story of John Marshall Harlan, America's Judicial Hero; and Elizabeth Slattery, a lawyer at the Pacific Legal Foundation and co-host of Dissed, a podcast about important dissents.
