What Next - The Supreme Court Confronts Its Critics

As the U.S. Supreme Court begins a new session, several justices are trying to reassure the public of the court’s nonpartisanship. But, as Slate’s Dahlia Lithwick argues, when you dig into the recent decisions of the court, you’ll see it becoming steadily more political. 

Guest: Dahlia Lithwick writes about the courts and the law for Slate and hosts the podcast Amicus.
