💡
This episode explores the Constitution not as a static legal text, but as a dynamic power map that continues to be redefined by those it governs. It bridges the gap between the high-level debates of the 1940s and the lived realities of citizens today, focusing on how marginalized groups move from the periphery to the center of democratic life.
