This document appears to be a page (p. 160) from a manuscript or memoir, dated April 2, 2012, in the header. It narrates the author's time as a law clerk (likely Alan Dershowitz) for Supreme Court Justice Arthur Goldberg in the 1960s. The text details the legal research into the constitutionality of the death penalty, discussions with Justice Goldberg about the political risks of opposing it, and a specific meeting with Justice Brennan to present arguments based on the 'cruel and unusual punishment' clause and racial disparities in execution statistics. The document bears a House Oversight Bates stamp.
The author reflects on the profound influence of Judge David Bazelon, emphasizing his role in raising enduring legal questions and shaping the author's critical view of the judiciary. The text compares this experience with the author's subsequent clerkship under Justice Arthur Goldberg during a historically tumultuous period involving the Kennedy assassination, noting that while the Supreme Court work was more high-profile, the time with Bazelon was more educationally significant.
