I AM NOT A LAWYER, AND THIS IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE if you're going to a protest where you expect to get arrested it's extremely important to have arrest training. this thread will not be as useful as a proper training, but i can offer a few tips:
The young person whose poster this is has come to many protests since October and watching the names on her poster grow every time I see her is a punch in the gut. I cannot imagine the pain she must feel and yet on NU’s encampment I saw her actively leading things despite it all.

So fucking sinister. We cannot let up.

We want to introduce you to some young poets in Gaza. Through the genocide, they have not stopped writing. Most have been made homeless. All want to escape. They need all of our help, so we want to tell you about them. 🧵
One of the largest humanitarian aid warehouse in Rafah was bombed yesterday. Burn all food donations made through airdrop. Israel is using starvation as weapon of War in Gaza. This is a war crime under international humanitarian law.
I cannot stop thinking about the choice to point guns at students who spent their entire childhoods training to survive too frequent school shootings and who are out protesting because students half way across the world are being murdered America hates its kids so fucking much
If you’re faculty at a university where there are protests, remember there are lots of ways to support, publicly & privately, tenured or not. Here’s a few: -Know your faculty rights & rules -Amplify protest info on your social media, privately to colleagues or in class
Every writer I seen standing by PEN — none of them surprise me. And if most of us are honest with ourselves, we never expected them to be alongside us. So let them save the banned books who will be read by everyone but the Palestinian people who are being genocided by us.

The problem with @PENamerica is that they CAN express full solidarity & HAVE. They’ve done it before, condemning Russia’s invasion of Ukraine with their whole chest. Palestine is just the blaring exception. You can’t pretend now to be an org above politics. You just can’t!

I remain infuriated with the literati/establishment elite doubling down on these "fighting anti-DEI measures" excuses for listening to Palestinians DURING AN ACTIVE GENOCIDE. None of you are serious people. All of you are complicit in pushing us out of your collectives.
“what struck me most about those who are protesting is how long they waited. the restraint they showed. not the spontaneity, the restraint. they waited and waited for justice. and it didn’t come. no one talks about that...” - Toni Morrison
This statement from Emory University protestors is incredible.
2 thoughts: 1. The university called the police to brutalize their own faculty 2. Maybe certain demographics of people will realize through the powerlessness of this moment that not even they are immune to the brutality of a militarized, authoritarian police force & radicalize

I was a third-year college student before this genocide started, but I'll never be able to finish my studies because Israeli occupation forces bombed my university and every other university in Gaza. Thanks to the brave college students who are protesting and advocating for us,…
Wrapping up my first shift as an EJP faculty support for the Northwestern Gaza Solidarity encampment. An exciting day, and I’ve never felt more connected with my students. Heading home before my shift tomorrow, but first, let me share some things about the camp.
June Jordan, from A Place of Rage, 1991.
See you on May 7 in NYC to raise $ for @WeAreNotNumbers via @PalFest. I'll be joining other authors who've refused @PENamerica award noms & World Voices Festival spots to protest PEN's failure to "stand at the intersection of literature & human rights to protect open expression."

I genuinely don’t know how anyone who is seriously committed to the safety and well-being of Jews can see a single decision made by people in power this week as doing anything but deeply endangering Jewish people at Columbia and beyond🧵
Brooklyn Public Library, tonight
sitting here in gratitude for @EugeniaLeigh and @sheer_awe for their generosity and insight and willingness to speak with me tonight, what a joy it is to live amongst poets like them

He/they/lui/هو 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈 PhD.I AM NOT A LAWYER, AND THIS IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE if you're going to a protest where you expect to get arrested it's extremely important to have arrest training. this thread will not be as useful as a proper training, but i can offer a few tips:
This is how we DO IT.
Columbia University faculty have linked arms at the entrance of the encampment as the 2p deadline passes for students to vacate or face suspension.

The young person whose poster this is has come to many protests since October and watching the names on her poster grow every time I see her is a punch in the gut. I cannot imagine the pain she must feel and yet on NU’s encampment I saw her actively leading things despite it all.
At Northwestern’s encampment. This is why we will not leave
“We grant the full right to those who are occupying McGill & other campuses throughout Turtle Island to be upon the said lands, with the expressed intent of engaging their administrations to divest from the colonial genocide of israel upon the Palestinian People.”
The traditional council of Kahnawake has confirmed that students have the right to be on this land.
So fucking sinister. We cannot let up.

Sending VCU’s police force into a peaceful demonstration is a violation of students’ rights and of the most basic tenets of a free and public education.
Officers move in. Pepper spray has been deployed and protesters threw bottles and other projectiles at officers.
We’ve now entered the “cops tear gassing kids for protesting genocide” stage.
VA police really tear gassing VCU students at night this is sick the protest was completely peaceful
we can’t afford to pay for public housing or infrastructure but we can pay for a ton of cops from multiple police departments to brutalize young people protesting genocide. there is no reforming this. abolition now.
Happening now at @UTAustin. State, city, and university police breaking pro-Palestinian protest.
You gotta see these students pushing back the police horse. Wild things are happening
BREAKING: Tulane University encampment going up in New Orleans.
I am struck by how often the critique against protest in this country is, "How dare you protest? You don't deserve rights! And also I should be allowed to kill you."
I hear they're reading this poem at the CUNY encampment. ✊🏼🪨🌱 A litany of refusals to become ghostly: theoffingmag.com/enumerate/two-…

We want to introduce you to some young poets in Gaza. Through the genocide, they have not stopped writing. Most have been made homeless. All want to escape. They need all of our help, so we want to tell you about them. 🧵
We just set up the Refa’at Al Areer Library! Students are already gathering around it! Thank you @haymarketbooks, faculty and community members for donations!
