In a great piece (www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...), Arjun Appadurai and Sheldon Pollock ask who actually runs Columbia University?" The answer is depressing: "Who becomes a trustee? At Columbia there are 21, all of them from business, law and technology"

REMINDER: Wisconsin has same-day voter registration. So, if you haven’t registered or recently moved or anything like that, you can register at your polling place (with ID and proof of residence) TODAY. Every state should do this. It’s great that Wisconsin does this. Go vote.

This is how it's done. A strong and principled response by WilmerHale to the illegal Executive Order attack - a form of attempted government intimidation declared unconstitutional by a federal judge. This is how to guard the rule of law.

Despite awful news, one reason I’m modestly optimistic about future is that, for research, I’ve spent a lot of time trying to “inhabit” our Jim Crow past. America’s history of racial authoritarianism is also exceedingly grim but, with struggle, Jim Crow was beaten once and it will be defeated again.

Right now, there’s an important race happening that will shape the Wisconsin Supreme Court for the next 10 years. Judge Susan Crawford is ready to protect the fundamental rights and freedoms of all Wisconsinites. Make a plan to vote early today — don’t wait until April 1st: wisdems.org/vote
