Green County, Wisconsin
September 1968
Three Amish students from three different families stop going to school at New Glarus High School. They were Frieda Yoder, age 15. Barbara Miller, also age 15, and Vernon Yutzy, age 14. But in Green County, not going to school if you were under the age of 16 was illegal. The school district tried to get them to go, but the parents said “no man, our kids are no longer going to school due to our religious beliefs.” Green County didn’t care if it was their religious beliefs or not. It fined the parents $5 for breaking the county’s compulsory-attendance law. Yeah. That will show them. Wait, just $5?
Anyway, the parents argued it was Amish tradition to not enroll their kids in public school after 8th grade. In general, there are two reasons for this. One is practicality- Amish teenagers generally need to begin learning a trade after 8th grade and public high schools usually don’t offer adequate training for them. The second reason? The Amish tend to see high schools and colleges as institutions that might promote ideas that go against their traditional Christian values and hurt their chances at going to heaven, yo. Jonas Yoder, the father of Frieda, represented the parents in court, but the Amish generally don’t like going to court to settle disputes. Therefore, a Lutheran minister named William Lindholm took an interest in their case and decided to help them fight, as he believed the county’s compulsory-attendance law went against the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment.
They appealed to the Wisconsin Circuit Court, who agreed with the lower court, so they appealed again to the Wisconsin Supreme Court, who agreed with Yoder and the rest, overturning the decision. The Wisconsin Supreme Court said that the state of Wisconsin couldn’t show that having an educational system for all its citizens was more important than the Amish families’ rights to practice their religion freely. Wisconsin was like, “oh yeah? Fine. We’re appealing to the Supreme Court of the United States, so what up now?”
I’ll tell you what up now. They kept on fighting, and the Court agreed to take on the case, hearing oral arguments on December 8, 1971.
The two things at odds with each other were religious freedom versus compulsory education. Yoder argued that high school threatened his Amish way of life. Wisconsin argued that some Amish kids may decide to leave the Amish faith after they reach adulthood, and so therefore a public school education through high school was necessary so they could more easily adapt to the “real world.” If the kids were 2 or 3 or 4 years older, then it wouldn’t be an issue, because they’d be considered adults who could choose whatever religion they wanted. So was Wisconsin violating the kids’ First Amendment rights by forcing them to go to school?
The Court said “yes.” On May 15, 1972, they announced they sided with Yoder. It was unanimous, although Justice William Douglas gave a partial dissent. But yeah, the Court said the 14th Amendment was applicable to the states in this case, and that the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment DID protect the Amish parents’ right to take their kids out of school, even though they were under 16.

At about the 3:30 mark you say "they were Christian, afterall"
What did you mean by this? You seem to emphasize it unless I'm misinterpreting your tone or something. I'm perplexed and super curious what the implication(s) is/are
Funny side note: Years ago, I used to live near Abbeville, SC where there's _a ton_ of Yoders, except they were Mennonites, not Amish. We were friends with one of the women. After the 'community' had finished building her new house, she invited us over for dinner, along with some of her Mennonite friends. She waited for her friends to leave so she could show us her TV that was hidden behind a panel in the wall. (Yes, hidden because she wasn't supposed to have one.) She asked us not to tell anyone! But, honestly, _who_ were we going to tell?
I wonder how often this happens? I know it gets harder and harder to stay isolated these days from the Information Age.
@@iammrbeat Well, since this happened about 30 years ago, I'd say she's probably moved on to concealing a smartphone in that wall. She always had a bit of a rebellious streak.
You coulda squeezed her for fresh eggs every week as "hush juice". ☺

Honestly I think the one judge was right; The kids should be allowed input on the choice themselves.

I'm sorry you had a bad week. :( Glad I could brighten it up, though. :)

Good to hear. Your kind words mean a lot. Thanks Gir affe's.
Do you agree with the Supreme Court in this case?
What is the most important Supreme Court case, other than Plessy v. Ferguson, that I have yet to cover with this series?
Mr. Beat Can you do "Castle Rock v. Gonzales"? Love your videos.
Thanks guys!
Hey Hot Mess Ness, I agree with your first response, and regarding your second response....I already made a video for that case. :D
ruclips.net/video/Lz7xJn8X8fE/видео.html
Absolutely agree with SCOTUS on this one. The Government holds no right to make demands of anyone. All free people should have the Right to make their own decisions. As we learn in Chisholm v Georgia, the States Sovereignty only exists due to the Sovereignty of it's people. By taking away a parents rights to make decisions the government is therefore restricting the Sovereignty of the parents thus putting the Sovereignty of the State itself in Jeopardy.
America has strayed so far from the 13 original States, or 13 Sovereign Countries who came together as a Union under the Constitution. Once the states began taking money from the Federal Government the State itself, a corporate entity gave up it's Sovereignty but that act alone cannot take away the Sovereignty of the people. Therefore under the original intent of the Constitution the "State" can make no claim of demands on it's residents.
You may want to read John Jay's opinion in the aforementioned case. It was one of the earliest SCOTUS cases in our countries history.
Ah yes, because high school definitely prepares everyone for the "real world".
OH SNAP. I teach high school social studies, so I don't know how to respond to this.
Yeah, like what the hell am I gonna use trigonometry for, lmao? An average person will never need this.
@@Lycaon1765 yes you will, the average kid may aswell become a scientist (you know, the single most important kind of job in the world)
Besides, that kind of mental effort makes people more intelligent, why do nigerian inmigrants have an IQ higher than the native american population in the US but wayyy lower in their home country? because they recieve an education that may not be useful but that it's quite hard and makes their brains develop more
@@Azknowledgethirsty average as in every day. As in the median.
The average person on the street isn't a scientist. There aren't that many scientists. Don't be so damn dense.
Stop trying to defend a broken system.
IQ doesn't do shit.

@@Lycaon1765 but most fields require you to have your brain trained, besides a lot of people work in the science fields (25% of graduates) and all the other subjects are there to give you perspective into what you want to do
Just found your channel and I'm binge-listening to Supreme Court Briefs.
I love these supreme court briefs best one yet!
Aw thanks. That makes me happy to hear. :)
First time commenter here! Love the series and since everyone's doing suggestions, I suggest the first cases where the Supreme Court deals when the defendant isn't a person, organization, company or a state. It's just a bunch of stuff. I'm talking of course, the "In Rem" cases. Where it's the United States vs Your stuff.
Very well made and informative video. : )
Thanks!
I’m excited for this
I'm excited for your comments. WOOT!
Yay! I love Supreme Court Briefs! I enjoy them so much. Thank you for always putting so much effort into your videos. It means a lot that you take the time to do this. On a side note, your Brown v. Board of Education video inspired me to use the topic for an informative speech I have to give (and use your video as a source)!
Additionally, I hope you enjoy your week off!
That is so awesome, Ben. I am so glad you dig the videos. It's almost unbelievable that you're using one of my videos as a source. Good luck with the speech!
Mr. Beat Thank you so much! It went well!
I love it! Why am I just now finding out about this series??
I LOVE YOUR VIDS KEEP IT UP MAN.

I like that "Stop Comparing, I'm Wearing Myself Out" song. It's pretty neat, Mr. Beat.

I've noticed every dissent has at least one word which is not used in everyday English. Or perhaps it is the stentorian voice which Mr. Beat reads them that makes the comments more vituperative #gothesaurus
You would be correct. I read your comment out loud in a stentorian voice, btw. :)
It's a perfectly cromulent word.
Wisconssin v. Yoder (1973)
In Sep 1968, 3 Amish student from different family stopped going to school in Green County, Wisconssin bc of religious region
- illegal to not go to school under the age of 16 in Green County (Compulsory-Attendance Law)
- Amish people don't like to go to courts, so William Lindholm, a Lutheran minister, decided to help them fight (Yoder is one of the parent's name)
- case pushed all the way to supreme court, oral argument was first heard in Dec 8, 1971
- ruled that the Compulsory-Attendence Law violated the 1st amendment, the Free exercise clause
- parents use this case to argue for homeschool kids
Limitations to Free exercise clause:
- only ok if it was a well established religion that was consistent historically with taking kids out from school
Thank you for the info Mr. Beat!
Sweet. I live 10 minutes south of New Glarus. We talked about this case quite in depth in our high school civics class.
love this one mr and mrs beat...myself going to private school learned more AT home than at the sooo called system...everyday is a process of learning for myself...you two be good and great..cheers my friends
You make a good point. This case was of course before the internet, but one thing I think about is that now the Amish are exponentially further behind due to not having access to it. Nevermind, just looked it up. Apparently some DO use the internet. Weird.
And glad you dug it! :D

Hey Mr. beat! Can you please do In Re Gault some time?
I agree with the Amish totally. In addition to that, I have no faith in the school system at all as it, for me, was nothing more than the graduation of the young from one bully teacher to another.
Mind you, I didn't have Mr. Beat as a teacher, or anyone like him. It would've been different if I had, I'm sure.

wait how long did it take for the court to come to a decision cuz wouldn't they already have been forced to go through high school by the time the courts discussed it and made a conclusion
This is pretty common but but at least a precedent is made

Wait, my friends last name is Yoder and his dad was Amish...AND I’m in Chicago really close...
Always gotta ask, what happened to Powell and Rehnquist
They didn't hear oral arguments because they had just been sworn in.
This is a couple of years before his stroke, and I agree with Douglas. I'd like to see a bio but it was sad how the stroke destroyed the judgment of a remarkable mind.
I live in close proximity to Green County, I’m surprised I never heard about this even during my history class’ Supreme Court unit. The Amish communities around here are great and as a public school student in a district that likely borders New Glarus’ I doubt that the schools were teaching anything that would get the students as rewarding a life as one in traditional Amish lifestyle.
Do Toronto v Chicago! Vancouver v Seattle also please!!
What happened to your Bethel v Fraser video? It seems to have disappeared!
They could’ve just paid the $5 … 😕
It's not about the money, it's about sending a message
Can we talk about Timbs V. Indiana?
This was a fun one. A lot more fun then dread Scott 🥺
It takes a lot for me to disagree with the Supreme Court, because I have tremendous respect for the institution and the advanced education and experience of the Justices. However, there are some cases that I have to take issue with; Korematsu v. United States, Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, etc. I also disagree in this case, on the grounds that the First Amendment rights of the children were not and to this day are not considered, essentially giving the parents complete control over the child's education, personal beliefs, and state of mind. A parent can subject their children to whatever they like as long as they can spin it on religious grounds, regardless of how it impacts the child or their ability to function in a civilized, secular, and multicultural society. Children are human beings, and we should be treating them as such, not as animals or objects that we are free to treat however we wish.
I think you make a great point. William Douglas would have been sympathetic to your argument.
Every year it becomes more pressing of an issue that American culture has any goodwill toward parents that act as though their children are robots devoid of free will, and that their own ideas are the only ones their kids should have.
From my European perspective this sounds awful. Everyone should receive education.
In defense of the Amish, they still are getting an education. I think the argument is what kind of education.
The Amish are some of the most educationed in Craftsmanship and in traditional agricultural practices of anybody in Europe or the Americas.
Although I am a firm believer in Education, I have to say the modern school system does tend to have a very progressive agenda that goes against religion in many ways and I have to side with the parents on this one because it is not the government's place to tell you how you can raise your kids unless you are causing them harm and the Amish are a very well established religion that has been around longer then the USA and many counties in Europe and they will probably out last most of the countries that are around today.
Look at that MR. Beat I agree with your point on this one... Rare lol
That's authoritarian everyone should be able to get a education not forced to get it

Why didn't Powell and Rehnquist vote? Too new to the Court?

Have you ever considered doing famous international legal cases?
Most definitely. If you could pick one to cover, what would it be? The Nuremberg Trials perhaps?
@@iammrbeat Oh wow I didn't expect you to reply. Big fan of your work, I'm really interested in your coverage of political history (I find it to be really helpful in my university studies). When it comes to international law, genocide conventions are only the 'tip of the iceberg', at least when it comes to notions on human rights. Some interesting modern cases pertaining to international human rights law (which is an important topic to cover in this day and age) are Velásquez-Rodríguez v. Honduras, U.S.v Noriega, R v Bow Street Metropolitan Stipendiary Magistrate ex parte Pinochet, etc. International law is always a tricky subject because it can't be contained as easily as 'Supreme Court Briefs' for example (jurisdiction, what can you say). I study political science, history, and german @ NC State- if you need any more ideas, feel free to shoot a message. Keep up the good work!
So $5.00 in 1971 accounted for inflation is $32.13 in 2020 dollars per child. Now multiply that time 3 and you get 96.39. So 100.00 per month can dent a families income for awhile.

As for the court case, I got to bring Conn. vs. Teal back up again...
So you seem to agree with William Douglas then. And thanks for bringing Conn v. Teal up again. lol I promise you it's on my list.
The children are going to side with their parents of coarse. That is the issue with this. They don't know better.
@@gladonos3384 Still, respecting their freedom would matter, and btw I would have gone for education tbh(not from the US tho).
Also education requires an active action on the child's behalf, and such, essentially rendering this whole shitshow we call public education forced labour.
Also, it's absolutely useless, as far as I've learned it from amerikan friends, as they learn extremely slowly(no kid left behind means that in a 30 child class you have a 29/30th chance of being kept back).
Also you can homeschool and then get left alone. There are states that do not do unjustified things in this regard.
Also deciding what is best to the child is up to the parent, as the child is their responsibility.
TBH, you all in the US should simply stop doing this whole public education thing, it's not your bread and butter, it's visible from 7000 km.

"Why are you speaking about the rights of the children this is about the parents" And so it begins.
I know that my generation ridiculed the study of other religions (Religious Studies) when we were school age, but I believe that understanding what other religions preach (not necessarily practicing them) is useful if we're going to get rid of this world of religious hatred and mistrust we live in at the moment. The inspiration for this is the Simpsons episode Homer the Heretic. The message it gives is it fine for people to practice religions, whichever they may be, but not to force those beliefs on others. The beauty of the message is that it is delivered in a way that doesn't emphasise one religion over another, a reference to the Establishment Clause and Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment of the Constitution
What a great episode. I think season 4 was my favorite honestly.
It's amazing how The Simpsons is still going twenty years after anyone watched it.

Most of this is fair but the "well established religion" clause will always mean "the ones we like".
If they are learning a trade then will be more productive if they leave the religion then if they go through 10th grade and drop out without a degree.
You have to do "Viacom v RUclips" Pls!
Kansas and Nebraska compared.
And what if those parents were Muslims? I think the Court would have handled the case a little bit different...
Perhaps. I did point out how they made special mention that the Amish were of a Christian tradition. So yeah, you make a good point.
Does Islam discourage education past the 8th grade? Would it be a violation of the family's 1st ammendmant right to enforce compulsory education? The answer is no because Muslims have many places of higher education in the middle east, and historically have supported education for males; and for the last century of females also. For this reason I doubt a Muslim family could get out of sending their child to school. However homeschooling and private schools are very popular in America and if a Muslim parents wants their kid to get educated in a different way, there are other options. I myself attended a private Catholic school in the mainly protestant area of southern Missouri. Private schools in the US are usually though not always, better than public schools academically and are usually religious in nature.
@@tannergustin5684 When I asked that question I meant to say that it was easier for the Court to accept the practice because it was of a Christian tradition, as Mr. Beat pointed out. If it was a Muslim tradition I don't think the decision would be the same.
Sucks tho Amish adults with no profit(hand me downs trust funds) will want to join the education system but miss important classes like calculus(i.p theft my profile my data/i.p)
