LIVE from the NYPL says…

Supreme Court Associate Justice Stephen Breyer declares that we cannot take the public’s confidence in the Court for granted and reminds us that at various moments in our history, the Court’s decisions were ignored.  Justice Breyer will be joined by author Jeffrey Rosen and Paul Holdengräber for a conversation about his book Making Our Democracy Work: A Judge's View. Together they will examine what the Court must do to maintain public confidence, and discuss the ten books that shaped Justice Breyer’s intellectual persona.
