The Adams Center

Justice for All?

A weekly 30-minute talk radio show on WQSU-FM, 89.9, hosted by Allan D. Sobel, director of The Adams Center.  The program airs every Wednesday at 8 p.m. during the fall and spring semesters of the academic year.


Mission Statement:

The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag of the United States, commonly recited at public events and in schools, states:

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

The United States constitution guarantees that neither the federal government, nor any state government, shall deny any person equal protection of the laws.

Justice for All? examines whether there is justice for all in the United States of America, whether we are equally protected by the laws, and how our nation may improve the administration of its justice system.
