Professor Charles Stanton and Law Student Blanca Pena Examine Birthright Citizenship Oral Arguments, Constitutional Rights, and the Racial and Social Divides Shaping American Society

Professor Charles Stanton and third-year law student Blanca Pena discuss the implications of the recent oral argument on birthright citizenship, highlighting President Trump's attendance and the symbolic significance of an Asian American woman arguing the case. They express concern over the potential erosion of constitutional rights and the broader societal issues, such as the prioritization of military funding over social programs. The conversation also touches on the hypocrisy in religious and political circles, the lack of empathy in American society, and the need for mutual respect and introspection to address deep-seated racial and social divides.
