SUMMARY:Votes for Women: Suffrage and the 19th Amendment Centennial
DESCRIPTION:One hundred years have not yet passed since the ratification of the 19th Amendment\, which granted many — but not all — U.S. women the right to vote.

Join Stephen McAllister\, U.S. attorney for the District of Kansas\, and special guests as they explore the constitutional issues raised in each of three cases:\nKansas v.

Harrington\, Goldstein & Russell\, P.C. and counsel for the defense\, Kansas v. Glover\nTobias S. Loss-Eaton\, Sidley Austin LLP and principal drafter of petition for certiorari\, Kahler v.

SUMMARY:2018 CONSTITUTION DAY | Celebrating the 150th Anniversary of the 14th Amendment
DESCRIPTION:Proposed after the Civil War and ratified in 1868\, the 14th Amendment is perhaps the single most important amendment to the Constitution. The 14th Amendment guaranteed citizenship to the former slaves and their descendants\, and it also guaranteed “due process of law” and “equal protection of the laws” with respect to actions by state and local governments. Over time and as interpreted by the U.S. Supreme Court\, the 14th Amendment has dramatically expanded the civil rights of all Americans and been the basis for landmark Supreme Court decisions in the areas of racial discrimination\, gender discrimination\, same-sex discrimination\, criminal justice and privacy rights. Explore the amendment’s history\, importance and enduring legacy in a discussion with Stephen McAllister\, U.S. Attorney for the District of Kansas\, Senior Judge John Lungstrum of the U.S. District Court (District of Kansas) and Chief Judge Julie Robinson of the U.S. District Court (District of Kansas).
