100 Years of Pierce, Part 2: The Right Panel, with Michael Farris, Melissa Moschella, and Emilie Kao
Episode description
On June 1, 1925, the Supreme Court declared, “The child is not the mere creature of the State; those who nurture him and direct his destiny have the right, coupled with the high duty, to recognize and prepare him for additional obligations.” Pierce firmly established the liberty of parents to direct the lives of their minor children without interference by the government.
