The Special June 21st: Is the U.S. Constitution still serving “We the People”?

Dr. Ryan Baidya, in his reflection on the June 21, 1788 ratification of the U.S. Constitution, questions its relevance today amid rising polarization, judicial dominance, and institutional dysfunction. Drawing from Jefferson’s call for evolving governance, Baidya argues that the Constitution must adapt to modern challenges like electoral inequality, corporate influence, and civic mistrust. His insights stem from the book “A New Constitution: A New America.”
