Amicus With Dahlia Lithwick | Law, justice, and the courts - Ketanji Brown Jackson: Asked and Answered

It was a week: Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s confirmation hearings, Justice Clarence Thomas in the hospital, Ginni Thomas’ tweets in the hands of the Jan. 6 committee, and an out-of-the-blue redistricting decision on the shadow docket. 


First, Dahlia Lithwick is joined by Angela Onwuachi-Willig, dean of Boston University Law School, to discuss why the Senate Judiciary Committee is a terrible venue for a job interview and the ways in which Judge Jackson rose above it.  


Next, Dahlia talks to Nate Persily of Stanford Law School about how the hearing interacts with the bigger picture of disinformation ecosystems, Ginni Thomas’ texts, and fills us in on the Wisconsin redistricting case. Finally, they discuss Prof. Persily’s almost 40-year friendship with Ketanji Brown Jackson. 


In our Slate Plus segment, Dahlia and Mark Joseph Stern dig into judicial ethics and what shocked them this week.

Consider This from NPR - The Film ‘Flee’ Reveals The Truth About A Man’s Untold Refugee Story

The film Flee has already made Oscars history: it's the first to be nominated for best documentary, animated feature and international film.

Flee tells the story of a boy whose family left Afghanistan in the 1990s.

Now an adult and identified by an alias to protect him and his family, Amin Nawabi reveals a painful secret about his childhood journey to Denmark—a secret he has told almost no one.

The film opens with the question: "What does the word 'home' mean to you?"

Nawabi gives NPR his first interview with a news outlet, along with the director of "Flee," Jonas Poher Rasmussen.

In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
