About
The Supreme Court has the final word on the meaning of the US Constitution; for better or worse, its decisions are key in steering our nation’s course. In Korematsu v. United States (1944), the Justices dealt with a conflict between the government’s wartime powers and the rights of an American citizen. Using excerpts from the case, we will identify the constitutional questions at issue, track the facts presented, and unpack the differing opinions.
