More about the book
The narrative explores Clarence Thomas's disillusionment with the Supreme Court's interpretation of the Constitution since his 1991 appointment. He critiques the erosion of the framers' intent, highlighting the Court's historical complicity in diminishing the Civil War amendments aimed at ensuring full citizenship for black Americans. The book traces a trajectory from Woodrow Wilson's rejection of representative lawmaking to the Warren Court's transformation of the Supreme Court into a quasi-constitutional convention, reshaping laws based on contemporary societal trends rather than constitutional principles.
