TX Bar Fail, Nike Reboot, and the ADA Turns 30

Torin and Julie wonder why BLM is a political statement instead of a statement of our humanity. Shame on TX Bar President. Apologize not accepted! Nike reboots internal diversity with a new Diversity Leader. Congrats Kelly Leonard! Just Do It. Then we celebrate the ADA, some awesome news from Google on search, and a reminder of how far we have to go.

We continue to support the Hickson Family. Thank you all who have donated to support Melissa and the kids!
