@mattlindauer @jananiu @HarvardCRCL Thanks so much, Matt! I'll be sure to take a look. I hope all is well!

[Alex Sinha @AlexSinha]

So happy that my latest article, coauthored with @jananiu, is forthcoming in the @HarvardCRCL Law Review! Using qualitative data and the 5th Amendment's Takings Clause, we argue that harsh treatment of the incarcerated may violate the constitutional rights of free people.

@MaybellRomero @jananiu @HarvardCRCL Thanks so much, Maybell -- and thanks again for your help on the presentation!

[Alex Sinha @AlexSinha]

The failure of the state to provide basic necessities to incarcerated populations imposes genuine coercion on private citizens to provide those necessities at personal expense. We analyze this dynamic as a taking. Draft here: https://t.co/KCqBcVYo8K. Comments welcome!

Grateful to have had the chance to present recommendations on human rights and racial justice with @AlexSinha at the White House and deliver a memo to @neeratanden & the Domestic Policy Council.

@AsafLubin @AmyGaudion1 @TheAALS Truly grateful for your feedback, Asaf -- thanks again!

@JacobDCharles Plus anybody who didn't speak still gave me their time and the opportunity to share the project, so they deserve the generic shout out

[Alex Sinha @AlexSinha]

@JacobDCharles It sounds like I might be an outlier here, but it seems right to me to say the paper benefited from exchanges with any specific people who gave thoughts. But I usually also include a generic acknowledgement of audiences at each workshop, which helps catch anybody I missed by name

@daniel_b_rice The best part is "Forgive me if I'm wrong."

I beseech the university to grant me tenure so that I, too, may abuse the listserv

[Alex Sinha @AlexSinha]

@yunsieg @IllinoisLR Congrats, Yunsieg -- that's fantastic!

@alafairburke @UtahLawReview Thanks, Alafair!

[Alex Sinha @AlexSinha]

Excited to share my latest article, Policing's Free-Speech Problem, forthcoming in the @UtahLawReview. I argue that significant, typical elements of modern policing amount to egregiously unconstitutional viewpoint discrimination. Comments welcome: https://t.co/8wwa675oSd!

@ItayRavid @UtahLawReview Thanks, Itay -- hope you're well!
