As evidenced by Katie Couric, Sarah Palin is unable to name any Supreme Court Case other than Roe v. Wade. (To be more specific she was unable to name any Supreme Court decision she disagrees with other than Roe v. Wade. She also said she does believe the U.S. Constitution guarantees a right to privacy but did not seem to understand how that concept relates to Roe v. Wade.)

The Rules: Post info about ONE Supreme Court decision, modern or historic to your LJ. (Any decision, as long as it's not Roe v. Wade.) For those who see this on your f-list, take the meme to your own LJ to spread the fun.


Brown v. Board of Education, reversing policies from Plessy v. Ferguson years before, and it's when the Supreme Court finally woke up to realize that separate schools and facilities were inherently unequal. Came far too late, but still a ways before the Civil Rights battle began in earnest, proving that the Supreme Court does not always go by popular opinion, but every now and then does what's right.

Let's hope they remember how to do that.
