I am SO EXCITED to read this, for two reasons. First, I have been utterly baffled about why it is that this account has been largely left out of legal scholarship. Second, I've felt like I'm on a lonely mission to bring history into law and tech scholarship and I'm selfishly relieved to have company

ICE killed a teacher in Georgia today when they chose to chase a man who posed no danger and had no criminal history.

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.

If people did this shit about anywhere other than the American South- like if someone said they grew up in Kenya and another person was like “I’m so sorry” we would all quite rightly roast them. every place has good and bad qualities. the South isn’t evil

This person took this when they called the race

a big runoff last night, in New Orleans: Calvin Duncan was exonerated after spending *28 years* in prison; he tried to get his own case records from the New Orleans city clerk—but the office dragged its feet. So Duncan ran to become city clerk himself, and yesterday ousted the incumbent.

I've been reposting some of them but if you need a mood boost, check out the posts under the #handsoff hashtag. spending so much time online I sometimes worry people in the real world don't know what's going on — but they absolutely, unequivocally do. you're not alone. we're not alone.

This is petty wannabe dictator stuff. A cabinet secretary has no business unilaterally canceling visas because he doesn't like the visa holder's politics.

An article that makes you sick to your stomach.

In addition to everything else that is wrong with this, why aren't these men wearing uniforms? They're dressed like they just came from the skateboard park and half seem to be concealing their faces. These are terror tactics, meant to inspire a penumbra of fear beyond those directly victimized.

I’d buy an @amandaknox.com kids book about injustice. www.npr.org/2025/03/26/n...

Vanderbilt University Law School received a grant worth over $6 million to create an innocence clinic available to second and third year lawyers. The clinic will work with @tninnocence.bsky.social when it opens next spring.

I believe in strong institutions and pragmatic strategy. Purity politics are destructive to progress. But our party leadership has become so anemic that we've been left with no choice but to call for Mr. Schumer's removal. Join our call for him to step down: www.change.org/p/boycott-co...

Time to boycott Senate donations and sign petitions. Chuck Schumer has gotta go.

Time for Chuck Schumer to meet…Chuck Schumer.

@davidpitts.bsky.social We should ask people in prison what they think is helpful, don't assume #apls2025

Hope everyone enjoyed #apls2025! See you next year in Reno for #apls2026!

@amyfettig.bsky.social prosecutors will build trust when they acknowledge mistakes, show there are mechanisms to deal with it, rather than pretending they are always right. #apls2025

@anthonyperillo.bsky.social addressing how psychology has been oppressive. We haven't earned trust. Cited @evanauguste.bsky.social at al. I recommend this paper to *everyone* pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36753574/ #apls2025

@anthonyperillo.bsky.social We need to center community members before we start a project. We need to hear what ppl need from them rather than relying on our assumptions about what is helpful. Psychologist want to help but need to realize that we might not know the best way to do that #apls2025

Today’s plenary addressed the timely topic of trust in psych, law, science, & institutions. Panelists Amy Fettig, Joe Hamm, & Anthony Perillo shared their perspectives on why trust has eroded and how to build public trust in science & legal settings. Thank you to Tess Neal for moderating! #apls2025

Who else has their kiddos at #APLS2025? My 5yo loves making new friends.

You can now read about projects that were interrupted when 18F was disbanded. One of them was with the Federal Voting Assistance Program (FVAP), which ensures military service members and Americans overseas are able to vote, and that their votes are counted. 18f.org/projects/#fe...

FYI, if your kiddo has food allergies, Gerber is notorious for cross contamination issues. We found out the hard way, here’s hoping you don’t have to.

Potential revised Muslim Ban coming. @aaup.bsky.social

This sounds like a pretty useful package.

18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people: 18f.org

Good luck securing a flu shot next year. Hope your immune system is solid and you're not too young or old to survive.

Good thing flu wasn’t bad this year…oh wait.

I don't know what happens next but I hope it is joyous because that's the story I need right now.
