In this episode, Malik Liberty breaks down the landmark Supreme Court case Shapiro v. Thompson (1969) — a ruling that reaffirmed the constitutional right to travel as a fundamental liberty protected under the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.

The Court struck down state laws that denied welfare benefits to new residents, declaring that no government may penalize or restrict movement within the United States.

Malik explains how this case ties directly to earlier precedents like Crandall v. Nevada (1867) and Kent v. Dulles (1958), proving that the right to travel is not a government-granted privilege — it’s a birthright guaranteed by the Constitution.
