It is the responsibility of everyone at every level to do whatever they can reasonably do to safeguard democracy.

There's no stepping away because you've done your time.

Democracy isn't a prison sentence.

You must stay in the fight.

It’s going fast. Lawyers have to move in unity - law firms, civil rights, law schools, tax lawyers, prosecutors, criminal defense, family law, civil law, immigration.

Stand together. Fight for our integrity and our profession.
I don’t see how, unless our entire profession stands shoulder-to-shoulder in unity, we successfully push back against this effort to break our profession and our democracy.

Cowering & compromising won’t work. He is attacking us for the success of our work.

Pete Buttigieg breaks down DEI for everyday folks…

“The opposite of diversity is uniformity. The opposite of equity is inequity. The opposite of inclusion is exclusion.” @petebuttigieg.bsky.social

Our problem: too many value uniformity over inclusion and they’re the ones running the government.

Today, I found out that the Department of Defense banned the Well-Read Black Girl anthology by Glory Edim. I was one of its contributors.

I'm really hurt right now. So if you have it in you, please buy books by Black women from independent bookstores.

@ashtonlattimore.bsky.social I just finished your book for a bookclub. Such a great (yet stressful) read. I really appreciated the lessons learned in the author’s note at the end!

Years ago, after the Cambridge Analytica scandal, I interviewed a former fb employee, and I remember her continually emphasizing that these tech bros weren't evil geniuses, but were, in fact, dangerous because they were utterly clueless, totally reckless, and had too much power.

I think it’s really important we identify the companies that are doing the right thing and reward them with our business.
