It’s my brain surgiversary!
Two years ago, docs took out a tiny tumor that was making it impossible to drive, walk w/out nausea, or read. I was scared I would lose my hearing, smile, and dream of becoming an academic. But I kicked that tumor’s ass and now I’m a law professor.

Amazing news. Witnessed first hand how the ACA with Guatemala was implemented. There were no viable paths to protection for asylum seekers in Guatemala, undermining the core purpose of the refugee regime. So much more work to do to protect asylum seekers, but an important step.

“As noted in the Order, the United States intends to suspend and terminate the bilateral Asylum Cooperative Agreements with the Governments of El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras.”
Only the Guatemala deal was ever implemented.

Lying to asylum seekers/migrants by state actors is pervasive in the US.
When my students & I interviewed asylum seekers who were sent to Guatemala under Trumps' ACA, they were lied to about what they were signing, where they were going, etc.
If anyone else did this, we’d be talking about the contours of the law of human trafficking and kidnapping and not the politics of immigration. The dignity of people to not be entrapped by the state and forcibly removed is repugnant to the rule of law and should be prosecuted.

The thing I love most about this picture, other than it perfectly captures the demographics of the Berkshires, is the totally on point band WITH fiddler playing on the corner.

A student told me they were intimidated to come to office hours because coming to a professor’s office was “scary.” I proceeded to point out the giant open box of cookies, pink floral pillows, and multiple pictures of my dog. thankfully they laughed and agreed - not so scary.

Mine is
@bechamilton
's comments on my piece at my first JILSA. I was so nervous to share my work. Her kind reaction to my draft nearly moved me to tears and forever shifted my perception of what I was capable of accomplishing.

Today’s episode of The Daily is WILD. If I was teaching Professional Responsibility or legal ethics, I would add this to my syllabus immediately.
Even if you don’t teach those subjects, this feels like mandatory listening for all law profs.
