Quick reminder that I'll be Zoom-lecturing tomorrow at 5pm talking about race, racism and international law. I can't promise it will be a *cheery* talk, but hopefully it will be interesting.

When White people ask what they should say to black people show them this video. The answer is simple. Keep your eye on this White girl in the front who uses her privilege to prevent violence. Be that girl. Raise that girl.

US military interventionism comes home: Trump declares that if a city or state refuses to take the actions necessary to "dominate the streets" and defend "life & property", 'I will deploy the US military & quickly solve the problem for them" https://t.co/hOcHjP1ojX

[Steve Vladeck @steve_vladeck]

My student note in law school was about the origins and history of the array of statutes known today as the Insurrection Act.

I wish it weren't relevant to any contemporary conversations—but if you're curious about the historical background, here it is:

In 2017, Mark Bray outlined a history of how the Antifa movement encourages citizens to take action against Fascism, especially when the state fails to act. https://t.co/wy5UtzCuaJ

[Jim Acosta @Acosta]

Remember these aren’t just Trump’s actions. There are WH officials and other federal employees carrying out these orders. He can’t do all of that alone.

[LPIL @lpilmelb]

Trump to governors: a lot of people here you'll be seeing a lot of - Gen Milley, head of Joint Chiefs of Staff, a fighter, a warrior, no losses, he hates to see the way it's being handled & I've just put him in charge, & the AG is here, & we will activate Bill Barr very strongly

[The New York Times @nytimes]

Listen to President Trump tell U.S. governors in a private conference call Monday that the protesters "are terrorists" and that the governors would look like "jerks" if they did not respond forcefully. The Times obtained audio of the president's call.
