While this is great work by grassroots community organizing to ensure immediate action was taken, it is important to hold @HaltonDSB and @ETFOeducators accountable so this racist educator isn’t allowed to make her way back into a school after some performative DEI training. 1/

Universities literally attract & send off students under banner: “change the world” & now invite police to brutalize their students for trying to do just that. Notably the same administrations exclaimed #BlackLivesMatter at whose core is a critique of police & prisons #Fail #Gaza
Professors, students are SO HAPPY when you show up in camp. Their eyes light up, they run up and hug you. You don't have to be an arrested body block to help them. If you just go by for an hour and sit and talk with them & take their ideas seriously, it'll make their day.
No, I am not tenured. How will I account for yesterday and today and tomorrow? Will our board forgive me when I go up and let me stick around? Doesn’t matter. This is the job: to speak about important matters. And protecting our students is the only thing that matters right now.
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
Hamilton’s independent MPP Sarah Jama has been ejected from the Ontario legislature for defying the keffiyeh ban. @JGaidolaCHCH reports. Click on the photo below to watch more. chch.com/hamilton-mpp-s…
This statement from Emory University protestors is incredible.
The hot takes by white feminists re: “rules & laws” that centre white ideology & patriarchy is revealing. An astute person said, the same Ww would rather destroy it all than embrace equity with Indigenous, Black, Brown & racialized folks. Shame on #onpoli #FreePalestine🇵🇸
The pages, who are all racialized, and witnessing this, see how racism and power assymetry are enacted. But they are also learning how courage and defiance look like. Thank you @SarahJama_ for showing leadership and courage for our younger generation who will lead our future.

The censoring of Black Muslim electeds for speaking up against genocide is a pattern in Ontario. Shame on @HWDSB Trustee Board for their duplicity: passing Trustee @sabreina_dahab's motion against Anti Palestinian Racism in schools, while also punishing her for speaking up.

some things we learned during the george floyd protests that you should know if you’re attending a protest—a thread 🧵:
Universities literally attract & send off students under banner: “change the world” & now invite police to brutalize their students for trying to do just that. Notably the same administrations exclaimed #BlackLivesMatter at whose core is a critique of police & prisons #Fail #Gaza
you'll find your students have so much more room to parry and parse ideas with you. The camps are a great space of pedagogy.
Professors, students are SO HAPPY when you show up in camp. Their eyes light up, they run up and hug you. You don't have to be an arrested body block to help them. If you just go by for an hour and sit and talk with them & take their ideas seriously, it'll make their day.

Thank you for the support today @MaritStiles. We all must use every tool possible, everywhere we are, as electeds and as everyday people to challenge Anti-Palestinian racism.
The behaviour we saw in the legislature today towards an MPP is appaling. The Premier and this government are sending a strong message to Arab, Muslim, Palestinians in our province, that they are not welcome here at Queen’s Park. The Ontario NDP will not stand for this.
@AliAbunimah Having a difference of opinion over slogans is an admonition? That doesn't seem right to me. In that speech, Finkelstein spent several minutes praising the students and showing them respect. Only after that did he say that he disagreed with them on a tactic.
The hot takes by white feminists re: “rules & laws” that centre white ideology & patriarchy is revealing. An astute person said, the same Ww would rather destroy it all than embrace equity with Indigenous, Black, Brown & racialized folks. Shame on #onpoli #FreePalestine🇵🇸
@MaritStiles Seriously? SERIOUSLY??? You are trying to score political points off a situation YOU created, after booting perhaps the only person in that room with a scrap of integrity from your party, after throwing her to the wolves.
