The world is bracing for the release of this video today. It’s all too sad and familiar. #TyreeNichols #CrimPro #PoliceBrutality – at St Paul, MN

Loving the presentations @SaltLawOrg ! #SALTLaw22 – at Chicago, IL
@profallentweets presenting at #saltlaw22. Her presentation “Music, Law, and Social Justice,” is amazing! “Black music is more than music, it is the sound of freedom!” @SaltLawOrg @StJohnsLaw

I think a lot of ppl still want to be law professors. But not a lot of ppl want to (or are able to) give up high-paying law jobs to spend 2-8 years chasing additional grad degrees and fellowships, moving across the country repeatedly, just to get the job. abovethelaw.com/2022/08/no-o…

First day of the semester @MitchellHamline! Digging my new office. All students in person. No laptop bans for me. #legalwriting #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter
Me when my law students come to class dressed up for interviews: “Yesss SUIT!!” 🤣
I love that black people give compliments by literally saying what you're doing.

Another thing I love about conferences is the swag. They always know just what I need. Because glass can’t lounge with you poolside 😌 #SEALS2022 #tumbler #winetogo @WestAcademic
