Project Overview

You Be the Judge

Two interactives encourage visitors to make their own judgments on several important Supreme Court cases related to the First Amendment.

The experience invites visitors to select one of five Supreme Court cases that are each summarized in an animated sequence where narration, images, and news headlines capture the essence of the case. After reviewing the animation, visitors cast a vote on the merits of the case which they can then compare with the results of all other museum visitors as well as each justice on the bench.
