| Summary |
Few judges provoke the ire of conservatives more than Thelton Henderson, senior judge of the Federal District Court of Northern California. This program profiles Thelton Henderson's life and career, exploring what his decisions on affirmative action, environmental protection, and prison reform--and the furors that surrounded these decisions--mean for American society. Henderson's rulings, often protecting the constitutional rights of the marginalized, demand close scrutiny of the complex interplay between the law, political power, and social justice.
