I’m sure many have the same reaction to this as I have. It fills me with a seething anger that there’s this kind of hate in the world. I guest lectured to sociology students today about race & class in our criminal justice system. I took the students through how far we’ve come...
In 230 years: from the Three-Fifths Comprise of 1787 to Dred Scott v. Sanford in 1857 to Plessy v. Ferguson in 1896 and finally to Brown v. Board of Education in 1954. Yes, we’ve progressed as a society, we’ve come a long way. Yet we still have miles to go. I hope and trust that
once we clean house - the White House m, that is - we can once again begin moving in the right direction. I do believe we can. Thank you for the inspiration this evening, Lillian.

1. Morning all. I’ve been waiting for a TRUE constitutional crisis to come into focus. For example, if the Supreme Court ruled a particular Trump executive order was unconstitutional & Trump said, “I don’t care what SCOTUS says, I’m doing it anyway and no one can stop me.”
2. But I have now come to believe that the DOJ/OLC memo saying you can’t indict a criminal president is a virtual “How To” manuel for a constitution crisis - a kind of “Constitutional Crisis for Dummies.” Here’s why...
3. In its zeal to protect the head of the executive branch, the DOJ Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) decided to issue an opinion saying it’s unconstitutional to indict a sitting president regardless of the nature or number of crimes he commits while serving as president

1. I don’t know WH Counsel Pat Cipollone, but he just signed his name to a letter that will go down in infamy. But the good news is, that letter makes Trump’s removal from office more certain today than it was yesterday, IMO.
2. The White House is done even pretending to care about our laws, including our sacred Constitution. Cipollone’s letter reads like a combination of a grammatically cleaned-up version of the president’s tweets and a legal brief written by someone unfamiliar with the law.
3. It’s a poorly-presented public relations document, an 8-page campaign flyer that will only fool those willing to be duped by misdirection and doublespeak. It’s a disgraceful un-American letter that will stand as an historic low-point for a White House Counsel.

1. Trump openly admits to criminal conduct (urging or coercing foreign countries to investigate his political opponents) because he believes that will confuse people into thinking that perhaps his behavior isn’t as criminal as it appears to be.
2. People ask, ‘who would openly say and do such things if those things were truly criminal?’ I’ve seen a very similar tactic used by defendants when I was a prosecutor. A defendant who is charged with committing a murder on 4th Street at a certain date and time ...
3. would defend against the charge by saying, “It wasn’t me because I was selling crack cocaine on 10th Street at the time of the murder.” This is but one example of a person trying to use an open admission (albeit, in this hypo, a false admission) to committing crime to ...

SOOOO excited for the next installment of @ACRMS #RaceB4Race symposia @FolgerLibrary next week. FYI, this is ongoing series of symposia that centers the work of scholars of color. Thread of random thoughts about ways to go forward re #RaceB4Race and #ShakeRace.
warning, I kinda suck at threads, so grab yo coffee. /1.5
I have been thinking of things that need to be done to elevate this work/change the fields. Much of this is #ShakeRace specific, but some have broader applications. /2
