This chapter explores the gap between theoretical constitutional rights and their practical enforcement in the U.S. legal system, illustrated by various case studies including police violence and corporate challenges. It highlights the bias towards corporate interests over individual rights, and the barriers individuals face in accessing the courts, particularly in the context of systemic bias in jury selection. The chapter also discusses the importance of effective enforcement mechanisms for both individual rights and government regulations.
