The last #AcademicStandUp show exploring #Law #Justice was pretty 🔥🔥🔥 with incredible true stories of how policies affect people’s lives.

Thx to our #NYC home @caveatnyc , our performers & to our audiences who came through!

We’ll be back in Feb 2020 with more ❤️

Then Sarah Harvard (@amyharvard_) followed it up w/ some wild true stories of how being surveilled as a Muslim American prepared her to do roast battles and standup.

Sarah’s ProTip: when the feds leave surveillance mics in your home, use it as a valuable open mic
