Shame on you, @janephilpott. Not only have you remained silent in the face of an ongoing genocide, but have perpetuated and upheld anti-Palestinian racism by forcibly removing physicians from the residency review process for solidarity for health and human rights for Palestine.
On intersectionality: Back in 2020, I lobbied the Graduate Students Association (GSA) at McMaster University to endorse BLM. They explained to me they couldn't, bc in 2005, 🇵🇸 graduate students asked them to endorse BDS. The GSA responded by adopting a "neutrality policy". 1/
Amazing news from University Of York. Big UK win! Demanding BDS works. Well done everyone involved🇵🇸
This tweet didn’t age well. After nearly seven months of harassing and doxxing students, Shai Davidai still hasn’t been suspended or fired, even though he has 50 official complaints made against him.
If you want to know see what a free speech fraud looks like, you can, of course, look at Ben Shapiro and Bari Weiss, but you also can also study Gov. @GregAbbott_TX. He swaggers from "don't try that censorship stuff in Texas" to "in Texas we don't allow criticism of Israel:"

As Rabbi Alana Alpert, one of those arrested, says, “How can we celebrate freedom as these atrocities are committed in the name of Jewish safety?” In the spirit of the holiday, we are putting our bodies on the line to fulfill our mandate to let all who are hungry eat.
Some outstanding letters of protest here from NYU (@nyuniversity) faculty to the President and Provost, but the below from @ProfStevenHahn is pure 🔥 🔥 🔥 : facultyforpalestine.education/statements/fac…
Everything needs to break
“Oh you’re just advocating for Palestine and wearing a keffiyeh because it’s trendy.” Meanwhile this is me and @molly_kraft holding candles at a vigil organized by Jewish women against the occupation in 1990. Just because you’re new to this doesn’t mean we all are.
It is beginning to look like Sangita Myska has been forced off LBC due to this interview.
I want to shout out the Brown students who early on faced retribution for their sit-in and to Vanderbilt and Pomona students who have faced strong blowback with insufficient coverage. They helped get us to this moment, they are people who helped build the momentum. 🫶🏽
To the students flying the Palestinian flag everywhere: In the 1980s, while attempting to raise the Palestinian flag under direct Israeli military control, Mousa Hanafi, a student at Birzeit University who hails Gaza, suffered a fatal bullet from an Israeli sniper.
At the @UChicago protest today, a reporter asked me if we (faculty) were educating the students who were leading protests against the #GazaGenocide. I said that the students were educating us.
Me unconscious and attended to by paramedics, Univ Michigan, 10/6/88, at a student protest protesting the new policy restricting protests. Technically I was not protesting; I was reporting on the protests for @michigandaily. The cop in the sunglasses did that to me. And others.

this means a few things: - students and allies are not facing the police forces of the past. they are facing militaries. enduring war/like tactics of repression & violence. - arrests give these militaries access to your biological data. your fingerprints, unmasked faces… 4/n
these systems use AI and other technology to further surveil folx post-arrest. so yes, the charges may get dropped, but who tf knows what they can & will do with your face and prints when it’s all said and done. 5/n

At the @UChicago protest today, a reporter asked me if we (faculty) were educating the students who were leading protests against the #GazaGenocide. I said that the students were educating us.
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.

@ShayoniMitra It feels wrong to take our eyes off Gaza for even a second. But the way these students are showing us what Jewish life will be after the zionist nightmare is over, and the way that Jewish life is itself a gift given by the Palestinian liberation movement...it's just breathtaking
NOW: Mumia Abu-Jamal is calling in to the CUNY-CCNY encampment from prison. Students blast his phone call over the encampment audio system.
CHARGE WITHDRAWN On January 7, 2024, my client, Maged Sameh Hilal Al Khalaf, was criminally charged with publicly inciting hatred for allegedly flying the flag of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine ("PFLP"). Today that charge was withdrawn by the Crown Attorney.
These beautiful Armenian students spoke about the Armenian Genocide, Artsakh, Jerusalem, and Armenian-Palestinian solidarities tonight at Columbia’s Gaza Solidarity Encampment.
Wesley Bell is not an ally of the Jewish & St. Louis community. He dropped his run against far-right extremist Sen. Josh Hawley to challenge fellow Democrat @CoriBush, a politically expedient decision to exploit Jewish fear & right-wing @AIPAC dollars. stltoday.com/opinion/letter…

@haaretzcom I personally will boycott anything and everything to do with Israel until I see a positive development acknowledging the humanity of Palestinians and their right to a life free of aggression, racism and humiliation.
Getting arrested today trying to deliver aid to Gaza was the only way I could figure out to mark pesach this year with integrity. Next year in liberation!
This morning, seven U.S.rabbis and Israeli activists were arrested by Israeli police at the Gaza border as part of a delegation of thirty rabbis and other peace activists with Rabbis for Ceasefire who were attemping to bring food supplies into Gaza through the Erez crossing.
We are nothing without our students. Nothing.
Happening now: Teach-in on history of imperialism in east Asia. This encampment is one of the most impressive spatial and political organizations I have been to. These students are outstanding organizers. 🤍
No words to describe what it feels like to be a Palestinian with my family in the Occupied Territories AND a university professor working and living in the US. I am stretched thin in every possible direction. Humanity denied on every possible front.
