I wrote about Thomas's jurisprudence of cruelty in my book Tainted Witness. He has been making this case against the 8th Amendment for a long time. Oh, and Anita Hill warned us.
Something worthy has emerged from social media. @duchessgoldblatt.bsky.social has given us a beautiful memoir.
Who sexually harassed Cassie Hutchinson and will they be subject to ethics inquiries?
This beauty just arrived, brilliantly edited by @teaganbradway.bsky.social. Filled with essays I’m looking forward to reading, including a response by Judith Butler. On the 20th anniversary of Giving an Account of Oneself. Honored to be in this conversation and company.
