Stacey Abrams, Ilyse Hogue, and Daphna Renan join Dahlia Lithwick in conversation for a live <a href="https://slate.com/bythepeople" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">By The People</a> finale.This is part five of our series on popular constitutionalism, the idea that the Constitution belongs to the people—and not just to nine justices. Our listeners showed up with stories: a 62-year-old heading to law school, an 8th-grade teacher emailing her senators, an artist drawing the court, and a woman literally knitting the Constitution. They also came with questions for our guests: What about court expansion? What about term limits? Is it just too late? Abrams argues we&#39;re not cooked, but “things are just really hot.” Renan walks us through the tools Congress has used throughout U.S. history to rein in judicial supremacy. And, Hogue shares the story she’s hearing at town halls across the country: Americans of all stripes still believe in the Constitution&#39;s promise—they just don&#39;t know how to claim it. Later: Our panelists offer clear and concrete steps for reclaiming the constitution. <ul><li>Stacey Abrams’ 10 Steps Campaign can be found here: <a href="https://10stepscampaign.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://10stepscampaign.org/</a></li><li>Read about Ilyse Hogue’s work on her Substack: <a href="https://theallamerican.substack.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://theallamerican.substack.com/</a></li><li>Check out Daphna Renan and Niko Bowie’s new book, <a href="https://bookshop.org/a/2181/9781324092803" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Supremacy: How Rule by the Court Replaced Government by the People</a></li></ul>Want more Amicus?
