The United States Supreme Court has both preserved and challenged American democracy throughout its lifetime. From the cases that started it all to controversial justices and fomented rulings, this podcast dives deep into the Court's many decisions - all through the eyes of a high-schooler. Starting with the 15 required Supreme Court cases for the AP U.S. Government and Politics course, I will examine how the most important cases and rulings have shaped the Court.
