Episode Synopsis

Rebecca and Liz break down the strong history of courts rejecting government attempts to display Ten Commandments in public schools. They explain the seminal 1980 case Stone v. Graham, the SCOTUS cases since then reinforcing that precedent, and the growing number of states passing blatantly unconstitutional laws that force public schools to display Ten Commandments.    Background "Louisiana May Require the Ten Commandments Be Posted in Classrooms"   Cases Stone v.
