The People's Constitution

Strict Scrutiny

CHAPTER

The Framers of the United States Constitution

The book is a chronological account of how and why the constitution has been amended. It specifically focuses on questions like who founded the constitution, how and when the constitution has changed, and also about the resistance and push back to those changes. The popular narrative about the constitution it was that this is the work of these mers, t their handiwork. They met in 17 87, and, you know, we have this constitution. And that is true, but it's about half true. Forty per cent of the constitution came after the original document was rit. These are some of the most important principles and values that we think about when we talk about the constitution to day.
