1832 in the wake of nat turners revolt. Until then, theres an actual fair amount of teaching slaves to read and write, particularly artisans and house slaves.

Thats why we have the Supreme Court and the only reason we have it. Supreme Court Justices do not make laws because theyre not elected by voters. We dont let them legislate as a result and thats how democracy works, people who are alike to get to make laws. Democrats would like to change that system. They understand congress is inherently small conservative body and congress is never going to change the country overnight and radical ways because voters do not want radical overnight change.

The left would like to use the Supreme Court as their instrument to do that. It kind of Super Congress with lifetime tenure. Imagine the power like that. Nothing you cannot do.
