What were the main court cases we need to know? I know ones like Brown VBoard, RoeVWade, MarburyVMadison and that SupCourt Justice John Marshall from the late 18th to early 19th century was v impt. Anything else about judiciary stuff?
dred scott v. sandford (1857): establishes that slaves are property and have no rights (now viewed as a horrific mistake)
miranda v. arizona (1966): established rights of the accused (“you have the right to remain silent,” etc., also known as the miranda rights)
korematsu vs. u.s. (1944): ruled that japanese interment was legal (like the dred scott case, now viewed as terrible)
reynolds v. sims (1964): redistricted voting districts so that higher-population areas (read: areas more likely to have poor people/immigrants/poc) were equally represented in state legislatures, rather than being represented based on land area. the theory behind this is “one man, one vote”
gideon v. wainwright (1963): established that all accused have the right to a public defender
plessy v. ferguson (1896): ruled “separate but equal” things for black people were legal. overturned by brown v. board of ed
also, you definitely need to know that earl warren was the supreme court chief justice from 1953-1969 and that he was the force behind all those important ones during the 50s and 60s. very progressive dude. thurgood marshall was the first black justice, sandra day o'connor was the first woman. that’s all the major supreme court stuff i can think of!
LMAO
You can put the burden of proof on them be like "yo that's crazy! Can you share a link to what they posted?" Either a: they don't have one (because it doesn't exist - because it's inherently false)
b: if they share a link you can either refute it by explaining that that wasn't a real blm Facebook page or that it didn't call for genocide.
Good luck!
can someone give me something to say to this? i’m so tired and i’m bad at arguing and i fucking hate her lmao
which one of you motherfuckers am i gonna think about today (reaches blindly into my comfort character basket)

Since Sunday tours of James Talbot’s home, Casa Neverlandia in Austin, Texas, are currently not available b/c of the Pandemic, we can take a virtual tour.
James is an artist who built this home, himself. I’ve heard. It’s still a work in progress. This is the living room looking toward the front of the home.
Simply, the Red Room.
James taking tourists through. The house is also on the Weird Homes Tour in Texas, but you can’t just show up, b/c it’s his private residence.
Kitchen & breakfast nook. He uses a gray water system and people are surprised when they hear that it has no air conditioning.
The Record Room.
The Photo Editing Room.
2nd story area.
The Master Bedroom.
The bathroom has a toilet, but James has been using a compost toilet in the back for years. This is a picture of it in progress.
3rd story area.
Sewing room.
Tile making studio.
Bead making studio.
General construction shop.
The Moon Tower in the backyard.
