Need to find a job for the one year between my federal clerkships (district then appellate). I’m Biglaw bound at the moment but not set in stone. Recommendations/referrals?

Don't have any leads. There's a bowl for referrals. Maybe someone in there can help.

Fellowship at firms. DM if you are interested in work at a labor law firm representing unions and union pension funds.

I don’t think so. It’s a one-year fellowship and it mostly helps you to be a better litigator (just that the area of law would be about labor). If you are clerking after the fellowship, it would matter even less for future employers.

Work for a cause you love for a year. You may not get another chance.

Okay so I’m a newly licensed attorney in a very conservative part of TX.

I have to let them know by tomorrow, but thoughts on if this is a good career move for someone who wants to work in transactional work-RE or Bankruptcy?

How's everyone doing? I was on social media today and reading about the Adam Toledo video and it took me back to last June, which on top of the pain from seeing this racist system continue to win out, June was my lowest billing month and hurt my confidence about hitting hours compared to my white peers.

How are other people dealing with 1) trauma of another racist murder by cops and 2) impact on work? I am not black, so my pain does not compare but I can't act like things are fine either...
