My *job market paper "Beyond Patents"* uses health justice and political economy frameworks to show Bayh-Dole legacies in health technology access as a public investment return problem and suggest NIH grant conditionalities as a solution. I look forward to sharing and discussing!

Professor @JameliaNMorgan’s work has been field-defining. Her scholarship has been crucial to my ( and so many others’) understanding of disability law and policing. She’s also a wonderful person. The academy is so lucky to have her. A true gem! I am so angry.

.@MyriamGilles10 who is targeted by the pathetic racist Northwestern screed is far and away the overall most talented law professor I have ever come across. She is among the most well respected civil procedure scholars in the country. Moreover, almost every year 1/4

If more law professors—hell, more people—had even an ounce of Myriam Gilles’s talent and integrity as a scholar, teacher, administrator, and colleague, the world would be a better place. Any suggestion to the contrary would simply be laughable were it not also so deeply bigoted.

Manuel Luna is the second New Yorker to die in the past two weeks while detained in the jails on Rikers Island.
A young man who would still be alive today if it weren't for a draconian cash bail system and unsafe conditions in NYC jails.

Seeing some news (finally) about Long Covid behaving like HIV.
I have been HIV positive since 2007 and am very lucky to have a very good doctor, an HIV specialist, so I asked him about it.

Jennifer Chacón, scholar of immigration law @StanfordLaw, responds to my @HarvLRev Foreword with the grace and wisdom of a master. She presses borderlands constitutionalism farther into the U.S., to El Paso, TX, and into immigration law--where we also regulate borders and bodies.

Great article & wisdom @jiseonsong Allegations shouldn’t be a “carte blanche to access someone’s private health information, but that’s how it’s being used. When the loyalty to the patient completely disappears, that’s an institutional problem… themarshallproject.org/2023/…

Yay! @WisLRev published my latest article, Geography as Due Process in Immigration Court. This article, inspired by my time as a nonprofit immigr. atty in E. Tennessee, argues that requiring ppl to travel hundreds of miles for immigr. court hearings is a violation of due process.
New paper out by Prof. Valeria Gomez at @ubaltlaw: "Geography as Due Process in Immigration Court."

Calls to defund/redirect $ from the police should extend to the rest of the criminal legal system. As the NYC Mayor cuts funds for vital services the supervised release industrial complex is getting $201 million and asking for even more rb.gy/cf7g1

Being Black and poor in America should not be crimes punishable by vigilante death. Jordan Neely did not just deserve to live. He deserved to live a better life than what our society decided to afford him. We are devastated by his loss. @AAPolicyForum's full statement:
ALT Jordan Neely was murdered by a white man on a New York City subway train for being Black, living in poverty and the mere act of asking for something to eat. We need to be unequivocal about the fact that being Black and being poor in America are not crimes punishable by vigilante death, and yet we sadly know that this is not our reality. When institutions like the New York Times downplay the public execution of a Black man by framing his death in passive tense and obscuring the lethal impacts of racism, they play an active, outsized role in dehumanizing Black Americans and normalizing the criminalization of Blackness and poverty. When politicians write off a murder caught on tape by saying "there's consequences for behavior," when that "behavior" is being systemically and generationally failed by the state and the "consequences" are extrajudicial death, we should hold those politicians accountable for their dangerous words.

An extraordinary story born out of the extraordinary work of @lindsaycnash @NoronaMauricio and the students in the @CardozoLaw Immigration Justice Clinic
The Immigration Justice Clinic's work to overturn two wrongful convictions and bring a man deported two decades ago back to the U.S. was covered on WNYC and in Gothamist. #FacultyWithImpact fal.cn/3xRG7
