Justice Anthony M. Kennedy Reading Corner
The Justice Anthony M. Kennedy Reading Corner is a quiet, welcoming place to learn about Justice Kennedy’s personally selected reading list called “Understanding Freedom’s Heritage: How to Keep and Defend Liberty.” His selections help bring alive key principles integral to our nation’s DNA. Although prepared for young people, this collection of books, speeches, letters, judicial writings and important founding documents provide thought provoking reading for people of all ages.
Instructional Programs
Instructional programs are an important aspect of the Foundation’s core, including activities to educate and train primary and secondary teachers on how to teach students about the role and importance of the judiciary in our constitutional system. The Foundation hopes to implement these activities and opportunities in partnership with national foundations.
