In 2020 we moved our usually intense in-person workshop on line. It was disappointing (@ProfMassoud & I had big plans as co-chairs 🤓) but also huge gains. We created 17 mini-workshops closely facilitated by world-leading mentors. Engagement was excellent. Please join us in 2021.

LSA mourns the loss of former President Sally Merry. Prof. Merry served as LSA President from 1993-95. She was a preeminent law & society scholar, winning both the LSA J. Willard Hurst Book Prize (2002) and Harry J. Kalven Jr. Prize (2007) for empirical scholarship.

Even after @MayorMikeDuggan redid property tax assessments in 2017, he is still overcharging the most vulnerable property owners while they are also being disproportionately affected by COVID-19. This must stop. Now. Read my @nytimes op-ed. nytimes.com/2020/06/11/opini…

Local governments should not shore up their budgets by preying on the very people Covid-19 hit the hardest.
