After a grueling 9 months on the academic job market, I’m thrilled to announce that on July 1, I will start as an Assistant Professor of Law at Harvard Law School! I’m so excited to bring Native American law and legal history to HLS, and I cannot wait to join the incredible faculty there!
Earlier this year, we found that spending on policing has skyrocketed by 40% in less than 10 years.

I was thrilled to be on “Strict Scrutiny” to talk about what local DAs are doing to hold federal agents accountable. In an earlier segment, Leah and Kate do a dramatic reenactment of an exchange between a grand juror and a federal prosecutor. Let’s just say you don’t want to miss it.

not sure if everyone can access this, but I just learned about some dramatic changes to SSRN from Steve Bainbridge's Substack. This is really bad; SSRN has been how I keep up with scholarship in my field from a variety of researchers
