This document appears to be page 314 of a manuscript or book draft (dated 4.2.12 with a word count) analyzing the political and legal history of the US Supreme Court, specifically contrasting desegregation with the abortion debate. The text argues that while the Court successfully unblocked democracy regarding desegregation, the *Roe v. Wade* decision had 'disastrous' long-term consequences by galvanizing the Religious Right and causing the pro-choice movement to become politically lethargic. It references ACLU data regarding public opinion shifts between 1967 and 1972.
