Book excerpt: This document is a teachers' guide to accompany the book "Equal Justice Under Law: The Supreme Court in American Life." Because the book contains a tremendous amount of detail, the guide does not attempt to explicate everything in the text. Instead the guide attempts to provide more detail on one or more of the issues covered in different sections or topics in the book. Included are summaries of key cases, background on the controversies of a particular period, and suggestions as to how other materials in the sections might be taught. The guide is not designed to provide definitive answers to the issues raised by the Supreme Court's history, but to suggest the rich array of cases and controversies dealt with by the Court throughout its history. The guide includes a bibliography, glossary, chapter on case study methods, and a discussion of moot courts. The material in this document has been arranged into topics, organized to follow the sequence of the text. Several topics depart from the basic chronological scheme to explicate subjects such as the idea of constitutionalism, the structure of the judicial system, and milestones in Supreme Court history. Each topic offers one or more methods of instruction designed to encourage informed discourse and active student participation. Each topic contains a lesson highlight section that features a subject and strategy that can be taught separately if necessary. For nonchronological courses the guide suggests highlights in subject matter, issues, and concepts including power, property, liberty, equality, and justice. (DK)

Download or read book Shortlisted written by Hannah Brenner Johnson and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2020-05-12 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner, Next Generation Indie Book Awards - Women's Nonfiction Best Book of 2020, National Law Journal The inspiring and previously untold history of the women considered—but not selected—for the US Supreme Court In 1981, Sandra Day O’Connor became the first female justice on the United States Supreme Court after centuries of male appointments, a watershed moment in the long struggle for gender equality. Yet few know about the remarkable women considered in the decades before her triumph. Shortlisted tells the overlooked stories of nine extraordinary women—a cohort large enough to seat the entire Supreme Court—who appeared on presidential lists dating back to the 1930s. Florence Allen, the first female judge on the highest court in Ohio, was named repeatedly in those early years. Eight more followed, including Amalya Kearse, a federal appellate judge who was the first African American woman viewed as a potential Supreme Court nominee. Award-winning scholars Renee Knake Jefferson and Hannah Brenner Johnson cleverly weave together long-forgotten materials from presidential libraries and private archives to reveal the professional and personal lives of these accomplished women. In addition to filling a notable historical gap, the book exposes the tragedy of the shortlist. Listing and bypassing qualified female candidates creates a false appearance of diversity that preserves the status quo, a fate all too familiar for women, especially minorities. Shortlisted offers a roadmap to combat enduring bias and discrimination. It is a must-read for those seeking positions of power as well as for the powerful who select them in the legal profession and beyond.
