Bonus Weekend Podcast: Anita Hill, Notorious RBG, Sandra Day O'Connor
The Leonard Lopate Show | Apr 16, 2016
We dedicated yesterday’s Please Explain to understanding the politics behind the Supreme Court. While our Please Explain series takes a hard look at big topics, we knew that when it came to SCOTUS, there’s quite a big story to be told. In this week's Bonus Weekend Podcast, we decided to to dig deeper into various aspects of the Court’s history. Anita Hill talks about testifying before the Senate during the confirmation hearing of Clarence Thomas. Irin Carmon explains the unexpected prominence of Ruth Bader Ginsburg in internet culture. Sandra Day O’Connor discusses the history of the Court, and her place in it as the first female Supreme Court Justice.
