Clair Huxtable inspired me to become a lawyer; today, young Black girls will be inspired by Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson. Honored to add my voice to the chorus, praising Jackson’s historic nomination & confirmation! It’s the representation for me. 🖤 usatoday.com/story/opinion/c…

Kudos to Prof. Alexis Hoag-Fordjour, who will be honored at AALS Annual Meeting next year with 2025 Derrick A. Bell, Jr., Award that recognizes “a junior faculty member who...has made an extraordinary contribution to legal education, one or more legal systems, or social justice.”

Talking to my 11yo this morning was hard; the disbelief in his eyes broke my heart.

Teaching recrimination in Family Law today. Any bets on how many of my students would correctly guess the artist if I played “A Heart is a House for Love” at the start of class? The Five Heartbeats would be partially correct 😂

I need to find an article to review for Jotwell in November. Anyone have a piece on affirmative action post SFFA. Bonus points for anything that talks about the lawsuit against Northwestern Law. Must be academic writing. Need not be heavily doctrinal.

Very cool: Prof. @srcarthens of @ukcollegeoflaw is involved in a new study that will test current knowledge of law students and nursing students for baseline data about patients with Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) on medication for OUD (MOUD). #UKLawProfResearch
