The clip starts feeling a little long by the end, but you have to watch through to the end in order to find out where he’s going to law school. The reveal probably won’t shock people.
Enjoy. And Happy Easter. It’s certainly one of my favorite holidays; it’s the only time most people get to see a black Jesus!

Its new features transform how you can track and analyze the more than 200,000 bills, regulations, and other measures set to be introduced this year.
UPDATE: Alas, it appears that the future law student has removed his video. If he wants to survive 1L year, he’ll need more guts than that.
