Persuading the courts to accept originalism is a long-term project, and involves changing the culture of the legal profession.
As previously advertised, the excellent Jack Balkin (Yale) is graciously hosting an online symposium on The Upside Down Constitution. The first two pieces, by Jack and by Gillian Metzger (Columbia), are here and here. Additional participants will include Sandy Levinson (Texas), Neil Siegel (Duke), Michael McConnell (Stanford), Rick Hills (NYU), and Ernie Young (Duke). I’ll write a response to my critics, provided I can think of one.
Thanks again to Jack and to the contributors!

Originalists can and do support Brown v. Board, and it's important to understand why.
