Columbia's web page discussing its regret for calling in police to arrest students in 1968 is displaying a warning about limited access due to NYPD on campus arresting students. May Columbia never live this down.
Progressive N.Y. Rep. Jamaal Bowman releases a statement saying he is “outraged by the level of police presence” at Columbia University and City College. “I call upon the Columbia administration to stop this dangerous escalation before it leads to further harm”:
Every union member in the country should take a long, hard look at how the state is treating a bunch of rich college kids hanging out in tents on a college quad because all that shit is coming to a picket line near you very, very soon.

I will do everything in my power to help the students who are penalized for protesting. I will put you in contact with other lawyers. I will write you a character letter. I will be a reference. Whatever you need. The good people are on your side. History is on your side
Columbia faculty: We “have spent the day offering our help to defuse the situation on Columbia’s campus and have been rebuffed or ignored.” Says administration + Trustees “will bear responsibility” for any injury that may occur in looming police action.
These are students. In no world should our kids be met with guns when using their constitutional right to peacefully assemble.

These kids are infinitely better, and braver, than all the adults that failed them.

Columbia you could have done this too — so easy instead of calling the cops on your own students

Breaking: Brown University reaches a deal with encampers. The encampers have agreed to clear encampment by 5p. In exchange the Brown Corp Board will vote on a divestment measure in October, among other concessions. Details TK
So they've turned a dozen blocks - a whole NYC neighborhood - into a fully locked down police zone to repress a small number of nonviolent students. Shame on Columbia. Shame on the NYPD. Shame on Eric Adams & Governor Hochul. Shame on CCNY.
Videos of police brutality and arrests at @Columbia University. You can see cops callously throwing items down the stairs. Is this not property damage? Is this not a “clear and present danger” to safety? “Safety” does not apply to POC, Jewish, Palestinian students at Columbia.
Columbia faculty statement on imminent raid on student sit-in: "The University President, her senior staff, and the Board of Trustees will bear responsibility for any injuries that may occur during any police action on our campus." 2/2
Columbia faculty statement on imminent raid on student sit-in: "We hold University leadership responsible for the disastrous lapses of judgment that have gotten us to this point." 1/
Universities, like Columbia, must ask themselves, “under what conditions would they permit the police to kill one of its students or one of its faculty members. Is Columbia willing to have police kill one of its students today? That is the gamble they’re taking.
I am outraged by the level of police presence called upon nonviolent student protestors on Columbia and CCNY’s campuses. As an educator who has first hand experience with the over-policing of our schools, this is personal to me.

CNN's @miguelmarquez: "I've covered lots of this sort of stuff around the world, and i've never seen this many police moving into one area."
TO BE CLEAR, COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY HAS CALLED THE COPS ONTO ITS OWN STUDENTS FOR THE SECOND TIME IN TWO WEEKS, ON THE 56TH ANNIVERSARY OF WHEN THEY LAST CALLED THE POLICE ONTO CAMPUS TO ARREST OVER 700 PROTESTING THE VIETNAM WAR & HARLEM GENTRIFICATION ON APRIL 30TH, 1968

“But it ended in two days.” They literally killed someone.
The Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville was reprehensible. But it ended in two days. What’s happening now on college campuses is worse. It’s been happening for weeks with no end in sight. It’s based on hatred toward Jews and America. Where is Biden? Biden the hypocrite…
much love to them, that’s pure passion right there, i’m inspired
It’s nearly midnight & the @columbiajourn newsroom is buzzing.
yes.
We need to understand, urgently, that we either divest from imperialism or we get fascism. The ruling class is eagerly ushering in fascism at home to defend their fascism abroad. And we have to reject all of it, right now.
The entire world should be shocked by the level of violence that a Democratic Mayor, Governor, and President are willing to use to stop students from criticizing America’s support for Israel.
CNN's @miguelmarquez: "I've covered lots of this sort of stuff around the world, and i've never seen this many police moving into one area."
i just got nightsitcked at CCNY but i guess i was asking for it in the sense that i was on a public sidewalk exercising my first amendment rights
The fact that Drake stans are trying to insist Hip Hop—a genre/culture created by Black ppl to give voice to Black ppl and our experiences—shouldn’t critique his exploitation of Blackness + ppl, confirms why Kendrick said he’s speaking for the culture w/ his critiques of Drake.
The fact that student journalists are having to correct misinformation from mainstream journalists who aren’t even on the ground… The fact that journalists couldn’t get access tonight… … days ahead of press freedom day and the Pulitzer awards…
Remember, the NYPD is doing this knowing that everyone is watching and that Columbia is an Ivy League school. Now just imagine what they do every day in neighborhoods where the press isn’t watching. Exactly.
a very small influencer married into a billionaire family and i am absolutely dying over her demanding this insta handle
This senior faculty member at @Columbia learned about NYPD entering campus from *student-run radio.* I still haven't been officially informed. Unless you count the text alert telling me to "shelter in place" and threatening "disciplinary action" for "non-compliance."
In a week you gon be more embarrassed than you should be today because I guarantee Drake will embarrass himself further trying to pretend he’s not embarrassed lol
truly devastating how fragile some of yalls staunchly held principles are. the first amendment warriors. the democracy preachers. the freedom cherishers. every moral fiber eaten alive, first by thousands of dead children in gaza then by thousands of protesting kids in the us
The police violence inflicted upon my friend Steve Tamari for standing against Netanyahu’s genocide is indicative of the brutality communities face around the world when they dare to demand peace & justice, from St. Louis to Gaza. We need peace, diplomacy and a #CeasefireNow!
Shocking footage shows several officers at Washington University St. Louis beating a professor, slamming him, and dragging his limp body. SIUE history professor Steve Tamari is reportedly hospitalized with broken ribs and a broken hand. One doctor told him he's lucky to be alive.
Kendrick didn’t say Drake’s not Black because he’s light skinned or biracial—it’s because he cosplays Blackness from every artist and region he can steal it from—despite never speaking on Black issues while actively being exploitative, and doing mess like calling Rick Ross racist
A very surefire way to ensure that students and young people will never vote for your party again is by unleashing a paramilitary force against their friends.

according to WKCR the NYPD threatened to arrest @jelani9 -- the dean of the journalism school -- if he left the j-school building.
Student journalists at Columbia's @WKCRFM are reporting that they're being threatened with arrest if they leave Pulitzer Hall. Yes that Pulitzer.
