Reseñas editoriales

In a rare interview given by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, television journalist and lawyer Jan Greenberg doesn't shy away from asking incisive questions during this revelatory conversation recorded in front of a live audience, in New York City, in October of 2007.

Candid and well-spoken, Thomas waxes eloquently on a diverse set of topics ranging from his radical political leanings in the 1960s, to the criticism surrounding his opinion on affirmative action, to his motivation for writing his best-selling memoir.

This fascinating listen sheds light on this complex and controversial figure in contemporary American history.

I loved it. It is fascinating how a man so smart is treated so poorly because he thinks for himself and not in line with what people think he should think. Justice Thomas gives us a view of how the Supreme Court should operate.
People often ask the question, "If you could have dinner with anyone in the world who would it be?" Justice Thomas would be my pick. No question!

What an amazing man and justice

I never knew anyting about Judge Thomas other than what I watch on TV or read in the newspapers...what a bunch of gobbledygook! shame on me for not reading about the man and about his judicial decisions. I am grateful to almighty God the Creator that Clarence Thomas is on the Supreme Court. Thank you judge Thomas for sharing your brilliant insights, your faith, and your convictions.

Understanding Thomas' outlook on the role of the court and his self imposed limitations on what he can rightly do, even when his personal beliefs conflict with the law, is critical to realizing it is not the job of the Supreme Court to set things right, or to do what's right, or to be in line with popular opinion. He is what's right about the Court.

Great perspective by a great jurist
