This review is from: Struggle for Student Rights (Landmark Law Cases & American Society) (Paperback)
Dr. Johnson has written a moving portrait of Tinker v. Des Moines, a major 1960s Supreme Court decision. The "Struggle" that he discusses deals with the right of non-violent expression while in the confines of a public school. The narrative is richly grounded in newspaper articles, interviews, and letters to and from the primary individuals. This makes the story extremely personal and enlightening. An in-depth look into the workings of the Supreme Court may be the book's most profound contribution. Taking a controversial stand in time of war is never easy. The Tinker case shows that the heart of our democracy rests with those who dare to point us in a different direction.

I was very disappointed when I received by book with underlining through out the entire book. It was listed under being brand new and I'm pretty sure brand new books do not have writing all over them...very disappointing
