Supreme Court dissents have it all: brilliant writing, surprising reasoning, shade, puns, and sometimes historic impact. Although they are necessarily written by the "losing" side, they’re still important: they can provide a roadmap for future challenges or persuade other justices. Sometimes they're just cathartic.

In Dissed, attorneys Anastasia Boden and Elizabeth Slattery dig deep into important dissents, both past and present, and reveal the stories behind them.

Join us for insights into the lived experiences of Asian American students and scholars in higher education spaces and learn what may be at stake for the larger Asian American community in the wake of Supreme Court cases and recent anti-Asian hate incidents.

Extended Podcast Info:

In late October 2022, the Supreme Court of the United States deliberated the Students for Fair Admissions v. President & Fellows of Harvard College as well as Students for Fair Admissions v. University of Northern Carolina cases, challenging race-conscious admissions practices and potentially developing larger ramifications for the current Affirmative Action policies in the United States.

Students for Fair Admissions (SFFA) claims race-conscious admissions practices are racially discriminatory because Black and Latinx students are valued higher at the expense of Asian Americans. They further argue Asian Americans should be “admitted at a higher rate” as they are “substantially stronger” than their non-Asian counterparts. In doing so, the SFFA and conservative Asian American groups, such as the Asian American Legal Foundation (AALF), not only adopt the model minority myth to further pit Asian American students against Black and Latinx students but also calls into question what Asian American means and what are at stake for Asian America in the context of these Supreme Court cases.

How do Asian Americans define our roots and our routes going forward? By analyzing the histories, stories, and lived experiences of Asian American racial formation and transnational processes in relation to US policies and practices, we can better map the multiple ways Asian Americans navigated the routes they took to articulate and formulate their identities. This framework challenges the limited boundaries that harmful stereotypes and tropes such as the model minority myth produce and reveals how such stereotypes incite violence and erasure toward the Asian diaspora.

Join us as “Defining Our Roots/Routes” explores the lived experiences of Asian American students and scholars in higher education spaces and considers what is at stake for the larger Asian American community in the wake of the Supreme Court cases and anti-Asian hate incidents.

Following what the Supreme Court is actually doing can be daunting. Reporting on the subject is often only done within the context of political narratives of the day -- and following the Court's decisions and reading every new case can be a non-starter. The purpose of this Podcast is to make it as easy as possible for members of the public to source information about what is happening at the Supreme Court. For that reason, we read every Opinion Syllabus without any commentary whatsoever. Further, there are no advertisements or sponsors. We call it "information sourcing," and we hope that the podcast is a useful resource for members of the public who want to understand the legal issues of the day, prospective law students who want to get to know legal language and understand good legal writing, and attorneys who can use the podcast to be better advocates for their clients.
