In this video Heimler walks you though Unit 3 topic 7 (3.7) of the AP Government curriculum which is all about the doctrine of selective incorporation. Selective incorporation is the process by which the Supreme Court applies the protections contained in the Bill of Rights to the states via the 14th Amendment's equal protection clause and due process clause.
The reason it's called "selective" incorporation is because the first ten amendments are not applied wholesale to the states. They are selectively incorporated as cases come before the Court.

Hey Heimler! Just commenting to let you know that your videos seriously help me and everyone I talk to in all of our AP History Classes. Without you, we would all have much worse grades. Thank you so much for making videos!

[@emmittmatthews8636]

Awesome videos. You hammer out so much info so quickly, while also making things very clear.
Thank you.

I understand AP Gov so much better because of you king 🙏🏻 thank you, have a good day :3

Great videos Heimler,
Just writing to say that Reynolds was charged with bigamy under the Morrill Anti-Bigamy Act, which was an act of Congress. Since the act under judicial review was a federal law, the First Amendment was applied directly to the case, whereas the doctrine of selective incorporation was not used.
Thank you for your instructive videos!

Heimler, I had thought that the first application of Selective Incorporation was Gitlow v. New York in 1925. What's with Reynolds v. United States?

Would the ninth amendment have been applied to the states with Roe v. Wade, as the right to privacy would fall under the ninth amendment?

[@Armitaged1]

Yes. He also made a video on the roe v wade case

Day of let’s go

[@kevinlove4356]

The example of polygamy does not illustrate the point made. To do that, we need an example of a right in the Bill of Rights that the US federal government cannot violate, but the state governments can. Yes, such rights exist. One example is my right to possess and consume alcohol. The 21st amendment gives states the right to prohibit alcohol possession and use. But the 10th amendment says that the US federal government may not prohibit alcohol possession and use.
The current US federal government prohibition of alcohol possession and use to persons under the age of 21 is a profound violation of the 10th amendment.

[@parkerthiede9751]

the federal government does not have a law requiring persons to be 21 or older to consume alcohol, the states can change this if they would like but they would likely lose some funding from the federal government as a result

[@catherinepincu9195]

Heimler- you are confusing my students with FALSE info. The selective incorporation of the BOR protections were from the DUE PROCESS CLAUSE of the 14th AMENDMENT, NOT the equal protection clause. The idea is that if a state want's to take your life, liberty or property, you are DUE A PROCESS, just like if the Fed gov wants to. Please check Congress.gov if you don't believe me. My students rely on you for help and you are not helping with this explanation. Students, check AP Classroom Topic 3.7 on selective incorporation if you don't believe me.

[@hermitsunite953]

He corrects it in his 3.8 video. Also, technically selective incorporation is both in the due process clause and the equal protections clause
