Had the great privilege presenting my research on situating, articulating and dismantling structural inequalities within the data-driven society @FAccTConference. The full paper is now available via: facctconference.org/static/papers2…

No exaggeration this woman here has helped me through this labyrinth called legal academia. She's brilliant, kind, fun, and is committed to supporting women of color. 💐🌹🌸🏵🌼 @meeradeo

The Journal of Law & Political Economy invites submissions through Scholastica or eScholarship. Unlike most US law reviews, we have a “single submission” policy: we will not consider manuscripts that have been sent simultaneously to other journals. #LawTwitter

Third week in a row that my article, Paying for Reparations, is on @SoCalTaxProf top 5 list. Don’t miss out! Free on @SSRN

A white person just told me that my retweet & sharing of a minoritized & ignored voice was “unfair” because … it didn’t adequately represent the narrative told by Europeans. I guess many white liberals just didn’t learn anything from that anti-racism training/workshop did they? Or maybe we are just doing that “racism against Arabs doesn’t count because Arabs aren’t a race” thing again… 🙄

John Oliver may be able to tell you why the Supreme Court is awful, but he's not gonna tell you what to do about it. But you're in luck because we're teaming up with @PeoplesParity & an incredible group of faculty to do exactly that! Join us TOMORROW!! lpeproject.org/events/history…

Exciting news!!!!! ClassCrits and APPEAL are launching a new initiative called the Law and Political Economy Collective (LPE-C). The LPE-C is seeking an Executive Director. Apply by March 29. Position description may be accessed here: politicaleconomylaw.org/content.aspx?p…

📢We are excited to be kicking off our Webinar Series on "LPE and Heterodox Economics"! Our first invitee is Jamee Moudud, and we discuss his forthcoming book project on the legal foundations of capitalism. A rich discussion on prices, money, and more. lpeineurope.org/webinar-test/

A must-read post by @NoahZatz on how the conflation of anti-Zionism & antisemitism "relies on pervasive racist & anti-Muslim stereotypes of Palestinians as endemically hateful, violent, deceptive, and hostile to Jews" in violation of civil rights law lpeproject.org/blog/palestini…

We need disabled scientists. A lot of us are watching this case and cheering on Dr. Cheung. As ⁦@OrlyLobel⁩ points out, very rarely do disability discrimination claims make it to trial. #cripthevote nature.com/articles/d4158…

There is still time!!!! Time for what? Time to get a proposal into ClassCrits to join us for our 2024 annual conference (February 9-10) at Southwestern Law in Los Angeles. The submission deadline has been extended to 11/15.

All of the trick or treaters who came to my house seemed delighted with their free digital copy.

The Journal of Law and Political Economy is hiring!! JLPE is looking for a Managing Editor. Information below. #LawTwitter

Old people don’t evacuate. At some point you’d rather take your chances at home than try to escape. I think this is an international human truth. Every time I went into a place getting bombed, it was full of old people, disabled people, confused people. That’s who gets bombed.

Also wanted to point out that UNRWA shelters & donations sites are UN facilities & they are in dire need of $ to cover medical supplies, water & food in Gaza.

Like water to civilians, the tap of international law is turned on & off according to whether European leaders see the children being starved & massacred as human & deserving.

A leading doctors group on Thursday formally withdrew its approval of a 2009 paper on “excited delirium,” a document that critics say has been used to justify excessive force by police. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/d…

For too long, Black women & girls have been disproportionately affected by violence. Alongside @RepBonnie, I’m proud to introduce The #BrittanyClardyAct which will establish an Office of Missing & Murdered Black Women & Girls. We must address this crisis. teenvogue.com/story/ilhan-om…
