SUMMARY:Birthright Citizenship: A Constitutional Debate in the Age of Originalism at Center for Life Enrichment at Center for Life Enrichment
DESCRIPTION:The 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution provides that “All persons born or naturalized in the United States\, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof\, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.” That this provision guarantees “birthright citizenship” to everyone except the children of foreign diplomats stood as a virtually unquestioned feature of American constitutional law for more than a century. Recently\, however\, a small group of conservative legal scholars has endorsed a radically different interpretation\, arguing that the Constitution grants citizenship only to the children of American citizens. Although this interpretation has lingered mainly on the fringes of American constitutional law for the past two decades\, President Donald Trump dramatically endorsed it in January 2025 in an executive order issued on the first day of his second term. The Supreme Court may weigh in or give some hints as to how it might resolve this issue in the near future. \nThis lecture will examine the history of the 14th Amendment’s citizenship clause\, the arguments for and against the two competing interpretations\, what these arguments can teach us about “originalism” as a method of constitutional interpretation\, and the implications of the debate over birthright citizenship for American law\, politics\, and culture.

SUMMARY:Borders and Beliefs: Debunking Myths About Immigration at Center for Life Enrichment
DESCRIPTION:Immigration was a huge issue in our recent election\, so huge that it might seem like unrestricted immigration is a recent phenomenon. In fact\, migration is as old as human history; what’s new is the idea that governments can and should restrict people’s movements. For most of human history\, governments have encouraged\, not barred\, migrants. \nProfessor Hahamovitch will discuss common myths about immigration and the rise of the biggest myth of them all: the idea that migration can be stopped.

SUMMARY:Oceans of Grain: How Wheat and War Shaped Empires and World History at Center for Life Enrichment
DESCRIPTION:Though we often speculate\, it is difficult to pinpoint how empires are made and how they fall. But by tracing a single crop — wheat — historian Scott Reynolds Nelson demonstrates its profound impact on the world economic and political stage in his critically acclaimed book: Oceans of Grain: How American Wheat Remade the World. He will describe how the US\, from its founding in 1776\, sought to replace Imperial Russia as the breadbasket of Europe and only succeeded when the US Civil War threatened to end the republic. He’ll show how three microscopic organisms that traveled with food – fungi\, a potato blight\, and the plague – rewrote world history.
