@legallyplucky Keep at it. Many successful attorneys took more than one swing at it before beginning their legal careers.

Did economic concerns lead to the creation and perpetuation of the idea of “whiteness”?

An “intricate web of laws and norms that maintained disparities of wealth...and access to political power”

“power...accumulated on their behalf across the previous three centuries”

[The Guardian Long Read @gdnlongread]

Before the 17th century, people did not think of themselves as belonging to something called the white race. But once the idea was invented, it quickly began to reshape the modern world https://t.co/1NM076jQQ3

over past 10 days:
—New York legalized marijuana & adopted strictest law against solitary confinement
—Virginia legalized marijuana
—New Mexico ended qualified immunity (& almost there on weed)
—Washington restored voting rights to 20K
—Maryland ended life without parole for kids

Progressive politicians make a real difference in people’s lives. #VotingMatters

A huge win for these states.

2nd Chances. Redemption. Legal Weed. Ending the War on Drugs.

These aren’t radical ideas. It’s time we reimagine criminal justice reform at the federal level, too.

I still need to review the law and history surrounding past changes, but this now has my attention - Proposal to Expand Supreme Court from 9 to 13 justices https://t.co/z4CmJC5J1C

@ttexass Of course, I stayed almost 6 weeks after leaving my last position. It just wasn’t a good fit. No hard feelings. We parted ways on good terms. Each employment situation is unique.

[Joey Burnett @804CallJoe]

@ttexass If you get hit by a bus they will start looking for your replacement immediately. If they no longer think you are adding value they will let you go. Do what is best for you. Loyalty, unfortunately, no longer has a place in many employer/employee relationships. #YouDoYou
