Today we are all Leslie Knope.

Our latest report examines how pathways to #lawschool differ and lead to different destinations depending on the point of origin. If we want to see progress in our democracy and legal systems, these pathways must be made more equitable.

I hope y’all understand Black voter suppression doesn’t stop on Election Day. It’s just going to get worse because they know what we did. More Than A Vote 🙏🏾✊🏾🖤👑

Studying law is an intense and demanding endeavor that may preclude having a job for many students. Here, we look at employment trends in the legal and non-legal sectors among both full-time and part-time law students. zcu.io/TtOC

I’m sorry, whose anger is on trial here? The person who killed someone or the person who saw someone kill someone? ffs

This tweet is overdue, but suffice it to say, I’m weary from the persistent racism so endemic in society even now. I remain hopeful that we shall overcome but it seems the farther we go, the more I realize we have so much farther to go. #hateisavirus

I'm sad to have to post this but I hope it helps parents, teachers, and all caregivers of young people of color teach a very difficult lesson they all must learn--how to survive an encounter with law enforcement. youtube.com/watch?v=wqJ-ps…

Elevating unheard voices and untold stories is one of the most fulfilling aspects of my job as a researcher. Our latest AccessLex Institute report puts 2nd-time bar exam takers at the center of the bar passage story to help both 1st-time and repeat takers succeed. #LawSchool #barexam

Very disappointed in Facebook for censuring legitimate and much-needed research on misinformation spread on its platform. insidehighered.com/news/2021/08/0…

For more than 60 years motor-vehicle crashes were the leading cause of death for young people in America. But since 2017 guns have killed more people between the ages of one and 24 ⬇️ econ.trib.al/0zzgC81

I appreciate this thread for its empathic and informative response to the Uvalde tragedy this week. I’m sad and angry, but reason, justice and preventative action are what we need and what the #uvalde and all other mass shooting victims deserve. 🖤
