Affirmative action, gun safety, gerrymandering--how the Supreme Court interferes witjh ordinary policy aking

from Supreme Betrayal: How the Supreme Court and Constitutional Law Have Failed America · host Mark Tushnet, Louis Michael Seidman

Our lens broadens to deal with three issues of public policy where the Supreme Court has interfered with ordinary policy making: affirmative action, gun safety, and partisan gerrymandering. We discuss more briefly than in prior episodes the possible justifications for that interference and argue that those justifications aren't strong enough to overcome the presumption that ordinary policies should be determined by ordinary politics.
