Several @NDLawEJC student interns participated in an evidentiary hearing in Columbus, IN, on behalf of the EJC’s client, Jason Hubbell. They played an important role in preparing for the hearing and presenting evidence and argument in support of Hubbell.

The socialist historian C. L. R. James was born on this day in 1901. His landmark text, The Black Jacobins, is a majestic account of the Haitian Revolution and is still the authoritative history of a heroic struggle for freedom and dignity.

Jimmy Carter appointed the 1st Black Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights. Drew Days was a @NAACP_LDF civil rights lawyer who would go on to serve as Solicitor General under Clinton. When we talk about Jimmy Carter’s legacy, we must talk about his tremendous appointments.

Not afraid to admit when I’m wrong. I was extremely naive this election. I thought the American people had standards for who leads us. I assumed that being a felon, having numerous sexual misconduct allegations & racist was too much to overlook. Truly bamboozled. Yall got me fr

FWIW, this propaganda campaign against Haitian migrants is really, really painful. For a while, but especially this past year, things have been terrifying and heartbreaking for all of us, and to be baselessly, racially smeared for political points is just so cruel. And scary.

After spending 15 years in prison for a murder he did not commit, our client Anthony Bedolla has been exonerated. He walked out of jail yesterday a free man.

Thurgood Marshall was born #OTD in 1908! 🎉

LDF's founder, Marshall was an influential leader of the Civil Rights Movement and the Supreme Court whose tremendous legacy lives on in our pursuit of racial justice.

What was supposed to be a one-time celebration 30 years ago, now brings in an estimated $327 million in economic impact to New Orleans annually and creates more than 3,600 jobs

So proud to have been a part of bringing the fest to New Orleans 30 years ago
