If you spend time in the American history corner of YouTube, there’s a good chance that you have watched a video from Matt Beat, also known as Mr. Beat. (Not to be confused with MrBeast.)
The Lawrence-based educator published a book last year titled "The Power of Our Supreme Court: How Supreme Court Cases Shape Democracy." He'll be at the Kansas City Library's Plaza branch on Thursday, Nov. 14 for a conversation about the book, which spotlights 100 highly consequential Supreme Court cases and their impacts on our democracy and society.
"Most of the cases that are important in my view, these 100 cases that I chose, deal with stuff that is relevant to us," Beat told KCUR's Up To Date. "And when we think about the average American, what we care about freedoms, civil rights and civil liberties."
