Yes, we mean literally abolish the police. nytimes.com/2020/06/12/opi…
@CUNY This is City College of @CUNY right now. Shame on @ChancellorCUNY for sanctioning this police treatment of our students.
Friends, please, please amplify. The NYPD are now raiding City College. Reports are hundreds of cops. Please, I know that what happened at Columbia tonight is sickening--but this is Part II. And our @CUNY students are largely working class students of color.
Just found out my student was arrested. A sweet, smart young man. They’re targeting Black guys disproportionately
This is what it looks like to defund libraries, parks, affordable housing, mental health care... while funding an army of cops to brutalize students who don't want genocide. And they think "Defund the Police" is unreasonable?

"As James Baldwin wrote to Angela Davis more than 50 years ago when she sat in a jail cell, "For, if they take you in the morning, they will be coming for us that night."" hammerandhope.org/article/michel…
this is how bad Columbia wants to protect its investments in Israel
‼️: NYPD throw Columbia student down the steps on campus. THIS BRUTALITY IS WHAT MINOUCHE SHAFIK DEEMS ACCEPTABLE.
These arrests across campuses in the United States are happening *while* Biden is trying to prevent Netanyahu from being arrested for war crimes
Rafah is being decimated, there is nowhere else left to go. Israel is now bombing more than 1.7 million civilians trapped in Rafah, Gaza's last place of refuge. A massacre is happening in Rafah right now and the world is silent.
Shout out to the WKCR student reporters who are putting many national media outlets to shame and doing an incredible job under extreme pressure
Happening Now: Our campus has been invaded by NYPD. @Columbia
This is pre-meditated state violence by militarized, armed agents gearing up to attack young people - students who've been protesting genocide. Hundreds of cops. NYPD will blame protests for wildly going over their overtime budget but this is just NYPD being NYPD. #Shame

BREAKING: NYPD Strategic Resource Group uses a ladder to enter through the window at Hind’s Hall. Large crowd of Columbia University students is present to protect their peers. @ColumbiaBDS #cu4palestine

Video of police at Columbia University pushing every single person including legal observers, medics, press, and ordinary students all the way into John Jay on the opposite side of Hind’s Hall. They do not want us to bear witness to their brutality.
last report from student press is that reporting police bringing sledgehammers to the building and climbing through the windows, now tear gassing students
We are witnessing Palestine set us all free.
200 days of this in Gaza and some of you want to pretend like the problem is students protesting in America.

Columbia issuing a shelter-in-place order before unleashing the NYPD on its students is beyond bleak. The Student Movement is once again stripping bare the ugly, racist face of this Zionist country. Liberation within our lifetime.
chills
protestors are chanting “Stop Cop City” outside of Columbia’s gates right now
change we can believe in
It will be interesting to learn how many of those arrested in Hamilton Hall at Columbia are actually students.
Shout out to the WKCR student reporters who are putting many national media outlets to shame and doing an incredible job under extreme pressure
Well I love our attorney David Bralow @theintercept. I hate top-heavy mgmt, too. But I’ll ignore any ego trips and continue writing for one of the few outlets publishing against Israeli-US propaganda during a genocide, as long as I can, w my overworked beloved editor @Ali_Gharib
@JillFilipovic with genuine respect - this seems to be the thing you post the most about, though! anti-semitism is horrific - students or not. AND i find it fascinating what is getting space in people's brains right now. they found a mass grave in palestine! where's that post?
@JillFilipovic it's unendingly infuriating to me how much space we give to college kids and the people who take these opportunities to spew their own bigotry. it's not irrelevant, of course, but it hasn't earned the space we give it.
@JillFilipovic this is what people do to movements. women's movements, black movements, socialist movements - they find the extremists, they exploit the cause, and then they sit back as the rest of the world focuses on that instead of the thing. this is not the thing!
columbia and yale student arrests, nyu faculty and student arrests...this is all only going to spawn more encampments and more militancy across campuses
morehouse class of ’24, you have a chance to do something historic in the legacy of student activism. the bell tolls for thee.
EXCLUSIVE: President Joe Biden will deliver the commencement address at Morehouse College’s May 19 graduation ceremony, according to three officials with direct knowledge of the decision. ajc.com/black-atlanta-…
NYTimes Editorial Board on Martin Luther King's opposition to the Vietnam War: "The moral issues in Vietnam are less clear-cut than he suggests; the political strategy of uniting the peace movement and the civil rights movement could very well be disastrous for both causes."
The massive faculty walkout at Columbia right now in solidarity with the student protesters is incredible. Faculty everywhere should follow suit.
Just a reminder that Jazmine Hughes and Jamie Kailes had to resign from @nytimes for condemning the genocide in Gaza but Michael Barbaro is still there after he tweeted a McCarthyist thread by the unhinged Shai Davidai smearing students and called it a “must read.”
interesting parallels between city of Atlanta's attempted disinformation re the Stop Cop City struggle and the state's attempted disinfo re Columbia (and all pro-Palestine) protests...try as they may, it doesn't hit the same when we have social media, principles, and brains
URGENT CALL FOR MOBILIZATION: IF YOU LIVE IN NYC COME TO THE NEW SCHOOL RIGHT NOW. WE NEED ALL HANDS ON DECK. NYPD IS IN THE BUILDING AND THE STUDENTS NEED NUMBERS ON THE OUTSIDE. ADMIN IS RELYING ON THE FACT THAT THE CROWD IS MOBILIZED AT NYU/COLUMBIA.
Update from @GazaFFlotilla: powerful Western states have sent official delegations to Turkey in order to prevent us from launching our mission to challenge Israel's genocidal blockade. We still intend to sail on April 24 and deliver 5500 tons of aid cargo to Gaza #LetThemSail
Shai all of a sudden has a problem with checkpoints that admit some people and not others
Shai tried to swipe in after his demo and his card was deactivated, which he found out in real time in front of a bunch of cameras. Columbia COO Cas Holloway was standing at the entrance when he approached.
