Post #4: The Supreme Court
-> This is the Supreme Court of the United States where the laws are make. The building's design look similar to the Athens temple in Greece. People in the government are debating inside this building to see which laws or bills will be pass. They are arguing whether a law should pass or not. The Supreme Court have a function to check the states or executive actions are against the constitution or not. It is also a place to judge a person liberty or to say guilty or not.
-> One of my favorite thing in the supreme court is the Bronze Door. It represent the evolution of laws in its eight panels. It show me that laws have been created and evolve to this day.
-> This is the Great Hall after the Bronze Door. The hall is made up of marbles. Between columns there are chief justices from the beginning of this hall. Walking through this hall make me remember the chief justices that sacrifice their lives to make our country a better place.
-> Then after the Great Hall, there is the court room where the court conduct their trials. The court is a bit small, i thought it would be larger than the Great Hall but it is not. I choose this because it make me feel like i am reliving the past history of people. Even though the court room is small, it seem so grand and great.
