Description

Amarica’s Constitution takes to the road, as the Yale Club of the Palm Beaches, Florida, hosts us with a live audience of constitutional aficionados!  The long-delayed book tour of “The Words That Made Us” finally assumes a recognizable form, as Akhil gives a whirlwind tour of the first 80 years of America’s Constitutional Conversation.  Aside from a sense of the book, you should come away from this episode knowing 20-30 things you either didn’t know, or wrongly understood before.  The audience then questions Professor Amar from founding to Trump - literally, as no holds are barred.
