cornell admin cited the evocation of “intifada” by the student activists as evidence why the gaza solidarity encampment is violent and antisemitic. cornell faculty who work in arabic were like, ‘may we lend you our dictionary?’ cornellsun.com/2024/04/29/let…
no one in gaza is sitting any exams this year, because they are running for their lives and their schools were all blown up. just for a little sense of perspective
"You are keeping no one safe, except for your donors, trustees, and the university’s endowment," writes Robin D. G. Kelley in a letter to Columbia President Minouche Shafik: bostonreview.net/articles/lette…
whether it's an israeli who considers the sustenance of a gazan child an existential threat or a new york commuter who trembles at the mere presence of an unhoused person, we need to uncompromisingly confront the weaponization of "fear" on an institutional and individual level
To those of us in the martial arts world who say nothing about who say nothing about all these cops using Brazilian Jiu Jitsu to take down Palestine solidarity protestors, many of whom are in simply no position to resist even if they know the necessary techniques: why? 🤔
US university and college administrations, boards/regents, and powerful donors are proving the point in real time: they are a warfare ensemble--they *are* police power.
Statement from Faculty for Justice in Palestine at New Mexico Highlands University in solidarity with the student encampment at the University of New Mexico. This was sent to the President and Provost at @UNM as well as the @DailyLobo on Friday.
This statement from Emory University protestors is incredible.
not to detract from how significant this at all but in this context it is especially important to include that hawai’i is a sovereign nation that was overthrown in an illegal coup and has remained under illegal military occupation by the US government for over 130 years

While the media ignores them, students at community colleges ARE protesting genocide too. They have far fewer material resources to leverage but are just as important. I’ll flag them in this 🧵 as I learn about their efforts. #GazaSolidarityEncampment #CeasfireNOW

STFU Joel Malina. I have been attending pro-Palestine marches/events since about 2017 and I have never heard a chant that was antisemitic. Neither this one nor "From the River to the Sea." All support to the encampment. All solidarity with Gaza. Love, A Jewish Cornell alumna

The students holding down the encampments have such clear analysis, and they are clarifying it in real time, together, in the kind of real dialogue that all these "free speech on campus" people claim to value. The most powerful pedagogy right now is in the encampments.

From all the rivers to all the seas, may all colonial empires fall and all the planet's people be free. Free Palestine and end U.S. Empire and abolish the police (Stop Cop Cities Everywhere) and Land Back to Indigenous stewardship and and and and and...
“Prisoners are the compass of our struggle” remains as true as ever — if they do it to students, they do it in the prisons and detention centers. Palestinian freedom necessitates an end to US empire, necessitates an end to the carceral state, requires abolition.
Please read this short thread
Reading Blight's *Race & Reunion* was so formative for me over a decade ago as an undergrad deciding what I wanted to do with my degree. This is embarrassing.

Let's dispense with the notion that this coordinated wave of state violence against the pro-Palestine movement is on behalf of a foreign government. It is on behalf of the structure of US empire, of which Israel forms a crucial node. But the call is coming from inside the house.

The Rafah invasion, if the US doesn’t intervene to prevent it, is set to be an order of magnitude worse than anything we’ve seen so far. We must escalate, escalate, escalate to raise the political costs as high as they can go
Exclusive: Israel planning ring of checkpoints to prevent “military age” men from fleeing Rafah, a senior Western official says middleeasteye.net/news/exclusive…
I'm really inspired by how hard these kids go with the de-arrests. They're crazy.
So ethnic cleansing was always the goal?
BREAKING: Netanyahu says Israel will invade Rafah with or without a hostage deal
Israeli scholar of the Holocaust @bartov_omer argues that accusations of antisemitism levied at campus protests against Israel's occupation of Palestine are disingenuous. “There’s nothing threatening about opposing occupation or oppression."
For anyone who is new to this (or under 30), ten years ago the idea of huge Palestinian solidarity encampments spreading over more than 100 US college campuses would have been entirely outside the range of political possibility.
.@Cornell President Martha Pollack just sent an email out to all students announcing that she will be suspending more nonviolent student protestors involved in our Liberated Zone — despite community outrage over the first round.
If you're not part of a campus community, here's what you can do: -Fund that bail, bb. Find cash bail funds, send coins -Check asks, bring *needed* donations -If ur a lawyer, represent who you can -Join up, bb! (The Emory invitation is one of the most beautiful things I've seen)
I’m so tired of the deliberate obtuseness with which some people respond to the student protests: it’s not peaceful enough, it’s not polite enough, it’s not unobtrusive enough. At some point just acknowledge the fact that what you want is for students to shut up and go away.
In memoir after memoir and interview after interview w New Left children of Holocaust survivors, this in essence is what they said when thinking about why they opposed the slaughter in Vietnam then and what, if still alive, they are saying about Gaza now
To my fellow descendants of Holocaust victims: what do you wish people had done to stop our families slaughter? Do that. Do that now.
"You are keeping no one safe, except for your donors, trustees, and the university’s endowment," writes Robin D. G. Kelley in a letter to Columbia President Minouche Shafik: bostonreview.net/articles/lette…
TELL ME AGAIN HOW FRINGE OUR POSITION IS?!?
BREAKING: 90.99% of @BarnardCollege students have voted to divest from israel.
I cannot get over the fact that some students and faculty will be expected to return to classrooms like all is normal after having literal snipers targeting them because they protested the genocide
Prof. Ruha Benjamin is literally occupying a building why are you, a tenured faculty member, afraid to sign the most tepid letter in existence?!
STUDENTS: DO NOT NEGOTIATE. DO NOT JOIN A COMMITTEE. THEY MUST DIVEST IMMEDIATELY. NOTHING LESS COUNTS. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO TO WIN IS NOT GIVE UP. 🪨🌱
An underrated element of a lot of student protests is that beyond the content of the demands a lot of them are about who controls university space, which is to say who—the administration or the the community of learners—constitutes the university.
Beyond being in Manhattan, there’s so much about the layout of Columbia’s campus that’s part of what makes the encampment so visually striking. Like the library in the background of all these photos, Butler, is named after a literal fascist who was *friends with Mussolini* (1/?)
The astounding mobilization we are seeing at Columbia today teaches an important lesson: We keep us safe.
This is exactly what’s at issue. If a university is just an educational services corporation selling its product to customers, sure, this is right. But exactly what’s at issue is whether that’s the right way to think of a university. I, and student protesters, say otherwise.
I love the right wing notion that there’s dark money funding encampments because the tents look the same & not, people all went to Target/REI/Dicks and bought up all of the cheapest tents in stock.
whether it's an israeli who considers the sustenance of a gazan child an existential threat or a new york commuter who trembles at the mere presence of an unhoused person, we need to uncompromisingly confront the weaponization of "fear" on an institutional and individual level
