Law Professor and Director of Center on Race, Law, and Justice at Fordham Law School, writing about criminal justice, race, sex, and anything else that interests me.
Such a great panel at Law & Society discussing pedagogy and chapters from the forthcoming book Critical Evidence! Thanks to organizer Anna Roberts and panelists Andrea Dennis, Daniel Harawa, Ngozi Okidegbe, and Rebecca Wexler, with a special shoutout to my co-editor Julia Simon-Kerr!

It was great delivering a lecture on Afrofuturism, Policing, and Justice at BU Law School and BU's School of Computing and Data Science on Monday. But the real fun: being in convo with BU Professor Ngozi Okidegbe afterwards!

A big congrats to my new junior colleague Ela Leshem, who joined Fordham Law this fall. She has a great article "Dead Bodies as Quasi-Persons" in Vanderbilt Law Review AND she also just won the Emerging Scholar Award from the AALS Section on Aging and the Law!
