We the People is a comprehensive history of the U.S. Constitution on its 250th anniversary, examining its origins, the challenges of amendment, and why it has become increasingly difficult to change despite nearly 12,000 proposed amendments since 1789, with only 27 ratified. Jill Lepore argues that the framers intended for ongoing revisions to prevent violence and adapt to societal needs, drawing on extensive research including her Amendments Project to highlight failed efforts by ordinary Americans to address issues like the Electoral College, environmental rights, and equality, while critiquing originalism and urging a revival of democratic constitutional reform in an era of rising political risks.
