Injustices by Ian Millhiser

The Supreme Court's History of Comforting the Comfortable and Afflicting the Afflicted

The book examines the history and impact of the United States Supreme Court, highlighting how its decisions have often undermined democracy and perpetuated inequality. It provides a critical analysis of landmark cases and the justices behind them, arguing that the Court has frequently favored powerful interests over the rights of ordinary citizens. Through detailed narratives and historical context, the book challenges the perception of the Supreme Court as a neutral arbiter of justice, instead portraying it as an institution that has at times hindered social progress and justice.
