The Italian American Museum will host a program of remembrance for Justice Antonin Scalia on Thursday, February 18 at 6:30 P.M. Justice Scalia was one of the most important and influential jurists in American history. A strict constructionist and originalist, Justice Scalia held to a judicial philosophy that changed the course and nature of American jurisprudence and legal scholarship. His intelligence, wit, and especially his commitment to Constitution will influence generations of lawyers, public servants, and ordinary citizens for generations. The son of immigrants from Sicily and Campania, Justice Scalia made us all proud whether you were a Democrat, Republican, Liberal or Conservative, having been the first American of Italian descent to be appointed to the Supreme Court of the United States. Justice Scalia will be remembered for his eloquent and well thought out opinions.
