Your Call

Today on Your Call: What do you make of this week's Supreme Court decisions?

This has been a historic week for the Supreme Court:  Rulings on affirmative action, voting rights, employee protection ... and today, same sex marriage.  What do these decisions tell us about the current Court and where we're headed as a society?  Where is the court following public opinion?  What do its decisions tell us about who has clout in our legal system -- and who's gaining power?  What do you think about the latest decisions and what questions do you have about them?  It's Your Call, with Holly Kernan
and you.

GUESTS:

Kate Kendell, National Center for Lesbian Rights

Brentin Mock, Colorlines.com's Reporting Fellow on Voting Rights

Matt Martin was KALW’s general manager from 2006 through 2018. Under his leadership, KALW grew into one of the most productive and innovative stations in public radio. Programs launched at KALW during Matt’s tenure as GM include the award-winning local newsmagazine Crosscurrents, the design podcast 99% Invisible, and the Spanish-language narrative journalism program Radio Ambulante. He helped create the station’s Audio Academy, a year-long program aimed at developing new talents in public radio, and led the first broad-based strategic planning process in the station’s history.
