Abstract

The article focuses on the historical development of the parental-rights movement in the U.S. and its roots in mid-twentieth-century anti-Catholicism and church–state conflicts. Topics include key legal decisions by the Supreme Court of the United States shaping religious liberty in education, Catholic leaders' strategic response to anti-Catholic opposition, and the broader influence of debates over parochial schools and constitutional rights on contemporary parental-rights advocacy.
