Stanford Law School’s Black Law Students Association will boycott recruiting events

In a letter to the “Stanford Law School Administration,” Stanford Law School’s Black Law Students Association has announced that it will not participate in formal recruiting events for the law school. Although the whiney letter cites the standard race-based grievances, the boycott is a protest against Stanford’s alleged “condoning of Judge [Kyle] Duncan’s behavior” and its “scapegoating [of] Tirien Steinbach,” the DEI dean who condoned the disgraceful shout down of the judge.

In what way did the law school “condone” Duncan and “scapegoat” Steinbach? By its “apology to Judge Duncan” — an apology that, the black students say, “was intimately aligned with White supremacist practices, leaving our members ashamed of the institution we were once excited to attend.”
