Ordinary Times EiC Emeritus Burt Likko and Andrew Donaldson have an in-depth discussion about rights in America, from the Declaration of Independence, to the Constitution, to recent headlines and trending controversies.
From Heard Tell:
Our guest today is our friend, frequent guest, attorney, and Ordinary Times Editor-in-Chief Emeritus Burt Likko returns for an in-depth, grown folk talk about what is and isn’t a right under the law, constitutional rights, how the American system of rights came about from the Declaration of Independence to the US Constitution and Bill of Rights, to today’s court battles and headlines. Burt explains not only the history and legal theory, but also some practical application from trending debates to how we should be talking about, and defending, everyone’s rights to protect our own.
Excellent conversation. Nice to “meet” a couple of “ordinary-dash” heroes. Thank you, gentlemen.Report
I’m sure I speak for Andrew when I say that it was very much our pleasure. Indeed, I don’t think either of us really feel satisfied that we finished exploring the subject.Report
