Every first Monday of October the Supreme Court’s justices begin hearing and deliberating the country’s most important—and often most controversial—legal cases. Each term the court hears cases that have the potential to reshape American law on topics including race, elections, education, religious protections, and other areas. And it’s important for engaged citizens to understand the role that Supreme Court plays in our lives and how its decisions impact us.
Join Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of Berkeley Law and one of the nation’s foremost Constitutional scholars, as he previews the critical issues raised in some of the cases the court will take up.
