Excited #TheBodysAlphabet won a @BiBookAwards Award. Thanks 2 @TweetsBiSheela & all the judges. Thrilled 2 have met so many other #biauthors

I love this.

@ChopraUSA and @sethfrotman penned State Enforcement as a Federal Legislative Tool, while @Atweedy01 addressed Anticommandeering & Indian Affairs Legislation, both of which are interesting and timely pieces. journals.law.harvard.edu/jol… journals.law.harvard.edu/jol…

So excited to have my work in @HarvardJOL! This article argues that the #anticommandeering doctrine should be interpreted very narrowly in the Indian Affairs context, and further argues that the doctrine shouldn't have been applied at all in #Brackeen.

Please read Brian Gibbs’ moving testimony and lament over being “terminated” yesterday from the National Park Service, putting a human face on the heartbreak and crisis thousands of government public servants are undergoing right now due to Trump and Musk’s draconian purges:

You think evil is going to come into your houses wearing big black boots. It doesn’t come like that. Look at the language. It begins in the language. —Joseph Brodsky

Terrance Hayes

After he won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1957, Albert Camus wrote a letter of thanks to his favorite childhood teacher, whom he'd never forgotten. It's beautiful.

Y’all I—

Looking forward to this event tomorrow night at @USDKnudsonLaw

I have my ballot. It feels like the most powerful document I have ever held.

Another anti-ICWA case is before the Minnesota Supreme Court. The attorneys and clients fighting ICWA appear to have no idea just how resilient Native people are.

Exciting to be visiting at BU Law this Spring.

Excited to be visiting at @BU_Law this coming spring. Thanks to all who made it possible! Can't wait to meet the students & faculty, including other visiting profs. Also, I'm Massachusetts born & raised so it will be neat to be back.

I never post photos of myself anymore, but there's a person behind the words, and here I am, and today I just want to tell you, scroller, there is no one you're betraying, in your changes, when you become the whole wild song of what you are.

I'm *giving away* a signed copy of The Magic Words! To enter the drawing, just share this post, @ someone who might want to hear about this book, or follow my account. I hope my educational tools continue to help, and I'll always try to give as much as I can for free. ❤️

Today's Poetry Thread: GRIEF Here's a marvel to start. Feel free to add poems.

READ: Justice Sotomayor's warning in her dissent: "When [the president] uses his official powers in any way, under the majority's reasoning, he now will be insulated from criminal prosecution. Orders the Navy's Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune. Let the President violate the law, let him exploit the trappings of his office for personal gain, let him use his official power for evil ends. Because if he knew that he may one day face liability for breaking the law, he might not be as bold and fearless as we would like him to be. That is the majority's message today. Even if these nightmare scenarios never play out, and I pray they never do, the damage has been done. The relationship between the President and the people he serves has shifted irrevocably. In every use of official power, the President is now a king above the law."

Hope the waters begin to recede soon. #flood #southdakota
