Reforming the Supreme Court? A Conversation with Kermit Roosevelt III

ACS Temple Law Student Chapter will be hosting Kermit Roosevelt III for an important conversation about the Supreme Court and possibilities of reforming the Court. This conversation is about where the Supreme Court is taking America, how the Court can be reformed, and what role lawyers can play in holding the line for democracy.

Kermit Roosevelt III is a professor of constitutional law at the University of Pennsylvania Law School, former clerk for Supreme Court Justice David Souter, member of the Presidential Commission on the Supreme Court, member of the American Law Institute, and award-winning author. In his latest work, The Nation That Never Was, Roosevelt makes the case that America's true founding values come not from an exclusionary Declaration of Independence, but from the struggles and Amendments of Reconstruction.
