AHA Members Co-author Article on SCOTUS and Gun Control

AHA members Holly Brewer (Univ. of Maryland) and Laura F. Edwards (Princeton Univ.) have co-authored an article for Washington Monthly on the US Supreme Court’s decisions related to gun control. The article examines how perceptions of history and tradition are used in gun control rulings by the Court and the roles that history and historians could and should have in shaping gun control legislation. It also features an amicus curiae brief that Brewer, Edwards, and other AHA members and historians submitted for United States vs. Rahimi.
