Walter Olson joins Aaron and Trevor for a discussion on the evolution of discrimination law in the American legal system. They talk about common carrier obligations, preferential treatment and employee discrimination suits, the disparate impact of anti-​discrimination laws-​-​especially in hiring decisions-​-​and the role of law schools and academia in perpetuating this cycle.

What happens when laws create more injustice than they fix? Is America “overlawyered”?
