"The Court at War" Tackles the Supreme Court During WWII
Briefly

"I read the infamous Korematsu case [upholding the government's use of internment camps for Japanese Americans], where there's a deep stain on the country with these anti-Japanese, very discriminatory decisions, and I realized that at the same time during World War II there were also some of the greatest civil-liberties decisions in our history...it's just a terrific story."
"I discovered there's very little actually written on the subject. The issues of the court are very important, but I also think it's just a terrific story. You've got an incredible cast of very memorable characters in the justices."
